The core of the earth..... Tang prefecture. Golden-purple city, a normal city in Absolute divine beginning world.
It was an afternoon of early summer, the skies were supposed to be clear, but instead, snow was falling all over the city.
Snow fell from the sky like goose feather coating the entire Golden-purple city in a layer of silver.
Strangely the snow did not fall for only a day or two. It had started a long time ago and had not stop since.
The street were crowded. Despite the harsh weather people wear thin layer of clothing, not one bit afraid of the cold.
Occasionally, armored soldiers would walk pass and melt the accumulated snow on the streets with their spiritual power.
Thank the heaven's for those soldiers. Without them, the city would have been buried in snow.
In the tavern, many cultivators gathered for drinks and laugh.
"What is wrong with this weather? Ever since I entered this city, the snow has not stopped"a burley man with a battle saber complained as he watch the snow fall from the comfort of the tavern.
"Haha, you must be new, " a purple-head elder looked over and said "stay a while longer and you'll get used to it. "
"Get used to it? " the burley man was confused and asked, "Brother what do you mean? it early summer now, how can it be snowing for days? "
"Days? haha, wrong. The snow has been falling for years, " the purple hair elder replied.
"Years? You're kidding right, the burly man was shocked.
Am not, I've been here for the longest time, the snow has been falling for about ten years. Nine years and nine months, to be specific, and it has never stopped, " the burley man said.
"How is that possible? "
To him, that was the only logical explanation.
No snow could possibly go nine years and nine months naturally.
"Haha, I know you would think that way. But I can ensure you that the snow is natural. Sure it's weird, but there is a reason behind it, " the purple-head elder laughed heartily.
"Reason? What reason? " the burley man asked continuously.
The other cultivator gathered as well. They knew the snow has lasted for nine year and nine months, but no one knew why, so they all wanted to know.
"The reason.... "The purple-head elder was baiting them.
The burley man took out two bottle of good wine from his space ring and placed it in front of him. "Brother, tell us."
The purple-head elder smiled at the sight of the wine, "it's a rumor around the city. I can not confirm the legitimacy of it either."
He continued, "Apparently, when our Golden purple city governor chu xuanyuan wife had her third child nine years ago, the snow started and never stopped since. "
the burley man frowned and said, "Brother it is obviously fake. How can someone being pregnant have anything to do with the snow?. it is simply a coincidence." the other cultivator felt the same.
But the purple-head elder smiled, "what if the child is yet to be born on till now. "
"What"
That unsettled everyone
Pregnant for nine years, till now?
It couldn't be.
"That's the rumor. ever since the governor's wife fell pregnant the snow has fallen. nine years and nine months has passed, and yet the child was till unborn. no coincidence there." The purple-head elder smiled.
The burley man and the other cultivator in the tavern nodded in agreement.
It was indeed weird.
The unborn child was weirder.
It could not be a coincidence for both to happen concurrently.
"People say it's a demon. It been long rumored in Golden-purple city that meili is pregnant with the devil, a monster?. " the purple-head elder added.
The others agreed.
An unborn creature for nine years and nine months had to be a monster.
But at the absolute beginning world, where power triumphed over all, a monster could be good thing instead.
overall, monster would have there advantages and many sects in the absolute beginning world could undoubtedly want one under their wings.
Governor chu xuanyuan had a good reputation in city as well. Even when people talk about Jiang shaoxu and her child, no one pointed it out and had contempt or disgust for it.
The burley man felt content after paying two bottle of fine wine for an interesting story. After some ruckus, the crowd dispersed.
Golden-purple city,within the governor's palace.
Governor chu xuanyuan was a man of his word, and a very fair man as well. He was deeply respected within the city.
In the conference hall of his huge manor, a silver robed powerful middle age man with a little stubble was discussing issues with the guard commander under him. He was chu xuanyuan.
A maid hurried in.
"sir, sir."The maid shouted for him as she ran in.
Chu xuanyuan frowned and asked;"what is the rush? "The maid saw the guard commander and realized that chu xuanyuan was discussing and so she apologized.
"Speak, what is it?" Chu xuanyuan asked calmly.
"sir ma'am is almost to give birth," The maid replied.
"What? "
Chu xuanyuan flinched, then rushed over towards Jiang shaoxu's room excitedly, disregarding the guard commander.
