  "This bread is delicious!" Watching this human comedy with great interest, Golden Crow Prince ate the third piece of bread.

  "They are the twin witches!"

  "Master Red Lotus and Master White Lotus!"

  "Oh, my God!"

  People who looked at Yun Xi with sympathy before now looked at Red Lotus and White Lotus in surprise.

  "Pat!" Some knelt down first, and just like dominoes that fell down, soon, people around Red Lotus and White Lotus all knelt down. Some old men even prayed to the twin witches in tears.

  "Lord witches, please bless my children to pass the Entrance Examination of the Sword Palace next year!"

  "Lord White Lotus, please let my children become smart!"

  "Lord Red Lotus, please bless my grandson's wife to have a baby soon!"

  Chapter 519: A Date with the God (3)

  "Oh, my!"

  Looking at the people kneeling on the ground densely around them, Red Lotus was embarrassed.

  They were indeed witches, but they were not the witches of gods.

  The Witch Palace treated all gods equally and "traded" with gods in the sacrificial ceremony, however, they didn't believe in any gods.

  Unfortunately, the vast majority of ordinary people couldn't distinguish this.

  Witches are the girls who serve the gods.

  Witches, equals spokespersons for the gods and they have incredible divine power, which is what witches were in the eyes of most ordinary people. Coupled with the fact that several legend ranked witches were themselves gods, and this impression was made even more exacerbated.

  However, the legend ranked god witches were just exceptions. They were as rare as the hair of a phoenix and the horns of a giraffe in the history of witches.

  Most witches could only live in reduced circumstances, collecting resources and increased their power via holding the sacrificial ceremony.

  As the "Yang Witch" of the twin witches, the most powerful Witch of Battle in the White Lotus Sword Domain, it was easy for Red Lotus to eliminate her enemies. However, she had no clue when dealing with this kind of problem.

  "Well, everyone, repeat after me." White Lotus obviously had a richer experience on dealing with these kinds of affairs.

  "A mount needs not be high; it becomes noted when on it fairies dwell."

  "A body of water needs not be deep; it would be ensouled, if a dragon makes it its resting whereabouts."

  "White Lotus is nowhere, it's right in our hearts."

  The old people kneeling on the ground repeated White Lotus's words devoutly, and their eyes become brighter and brighter and their spirits were getting better and better.

  "Eh..." Yun Xi blinked his eyes and watched the aura spreading quietly between White Lotus and Red Lotus' hands.

  Undoubtedly, this was a high ranked witch skill, which could silently influence all the people around them, it dispelled the darkness in their bodies and sprinkled morning dew like aura from their hands.

  "Um... That's good..." Biting the bread into her mouth, Golden Crow Princess praised them.

  Recalling the information he had seen in the Twin Witches' Seed, Yun Xi understood what secret skill they were using.

  White Lotus Holy Land.

  White Lotus Holy Land could bless all people within a range of 10 kilometers, which was a unique skill of the twin witches.

  After appeasing the believers, White Lotus smiled at Yun Xi and then cast another spell. The four people disappeared on the street in an instant.

  "Thank you, Lord White Lotus!"

  "Thank you, Your Highness Red Lotus!"

  "Long live our twin witches!"

  The people who were cured by the White Lotus Holy Land spontaneously shouted the twin witches' names. If there was no accident, what happened here would soon spread throughout the entire White Lotus Sword Domain in a few days and become the people's topic of conversation.

  Several streets away, White Lotus once again cast the spell she had just used, sitting with her sister Red Lotus, Golden Crow Princess and Yun Xi in a dessert shop.

  When it came to dating girls, it’s a must do, to come to a dessert store.

  "I really can't stand that." After experiencing the incident just now, Red Lotus's attitude toward Yun Xi was more or less softened.

  "Are witches popular?" Golden Crow Princess looked curiously at the twin witches who had just been worshipped as gods.

  "They should be... It was just too much." Red Lotus nodded first, then shook her head.

  No matter how much people worshiped them, the situation just now was a bit abnormal, as if people had believed in her and White Lotus as real gods.

  They were only sixteen years old, and when they saw the old people kneeling down to them, they could barely accept it.

  "We are not gods. We should not be worshipped like that. I always feel sorry for everyone."

  "Sister, you are too serious... They don't really expect us to satisfy their desires, they just need a ray of hope."

  "As long as there is a glimmer of hope, no matter how slim and impossible that hope is, they will trust it and can create miracles."

  "Compared with real miracles, 'hope' is actually the greatest reliance people have."

  "Absolute despair is the most terrible thing."

  White Lotus ordered the desserts and explained why she accepted people's worship.

  "White Lotus, maybe you can really become a god someday." While enjoying the cold juice, Golden Crow Princess praised White Lotus.

  Gods weren't omnipotent, even the West Queen, the creator of the Kunlun God's Domain had her own troubles.

  "We witches pursue the power of gods and communicate with them, but we don't have to be gods."

  "God witch is a career from which human beings learn to understand and communicate with gods."

  "Well, here's my banana milk, Mei. Let's enjoy it together." White Lotus suddenly changed the topic and put a large glass of fruit drink decorated with ice in front of Yun Xi, without giving him any chance to refuse.

  "Well, there's only one cup..." Big drops of sweat fell on his forehead as he watched the goblet that was three times bigger than the common goblet.

  "But there are two straws!" White Lotus smiled like a child, pointing to a curly straw on the side of the goblet.

  Chapter 520: Dessert Time

  "This..." Red Lotus looked at her smiling sister in astonishment as if she was a complete stranger.

  When did her sister, White Lotus, become so enthusiastic? Her eyes were filled with a satisfied and happy smile!

  Where is her shy, timid sister, the sister who always hid behind her?

  "Mei, let's drink together." White Lotus gave Yun Xi one of the straws and said with a tempting breath.

  "Uh..." Yun Xi wanted to say "no", but somehow when he looked at White Lotus' eyes, he couldn't say anything.

  I'm just thirsty, just thirsty. I just ate too much bread and need to drink water. Yun Xi blushed hinting at himself and approached the fruit drink.

  In front of his eyes, was White Lotus' delicate face. They were so close that Yun Xi could even feel the breath from White Lotus' nose.

  Which is sweeter, the banana dessert or White Lotus? It was really a question that was hard to answer.

  Red Lotus looked at her sister who shared the same cup of fruit drink with Yun Xi and felt a strong sense of loss.

  From their childhood, she and White Lotus had never been separated for a second because of the invisible threads on their hands.

  They learned together, practiced together, bathed together, helped each other change clothes, and even fell asleep together.

  White Lotus and Red Lotus were inseparable, the relationship between them was closer than any sisters.

  "Oh, is this really delicious?" Golden Crow Princess watched them with curiosity.

  "Great God, if you like it, try it." White Lotus recommended this drink that could increase her friendship with her.

  Yes, isn't drinking from the same
cup of dessert the best interpretation of friendship?

  "Good!" Golden Crow Princess stood on her chair, laid her hands on the table, opened her little cherry mouth, and held the straw with expectation.

  Compared with Golden Crow Princess' tiny body, the table and chair in this dessert store were a little too big, which made Golden Crow Princess' behavior more lovely.

  Well, this feeling was like going shopping with your little daughter and buying her food?

  If only there wasn't the big sister who was staring at him in a hostile manner, everything would be better.

  "Yummy!" After half a cup of banana dessert, Golden Crow Princess satisfactorily returned to her sitting position and tilted her little feet with a happy look on her face.

  "You are welcome." White Lotus said in a natural tone.

  "Wait, wait a minute! I... I'm thirsty too!" For the first time, Red Lotus lied in front of White Lotus, and her heartbeat was so strong that she felt that such a lie would be exposed at once.

  "Sister, drink." White Lotus didn't reveal her sister's clumsy lie and smiled, handing Red Lotus her straw.

  "Coo! Coo! Goo! " Red Lotus took White Lotus' place and stared at the maid sitting on the other side, sipping the cold and refreshing fruit drink.

  "Don't rush, sister." White Lotus chuckled. For the first time, she saw that her sister was so anxious and jealous.

  "If my sister can't drink it up, can you drink with me again?"

  Hearing White Lotus's voice, Red Lotus's eyes suddenly became serious and she began to sip the remaining half of the fruit drink more diligently.

  Are you kidding me? How can I let you be so intimate with White Lotus again?

  Even if the god could permit this happening, as a sister, I will never permit it!

  Yun Xi looked at Red Lotus and felt a little nervous.

  Unlike White Lotus, Red Lotus was a dangerous person whose combat power wasn't even inferior to Hua Huo in the dream trial.

  If White Lotus was a pure and flawless flower, then Red Lotus was absolutely a flame that could burn the sky and heaven.

  The personality of the two people seemed to be the same as their names, containing distinct characteristics.

  However, apart from these, Red Lotus and White Lotus were exactly the same.

  Yes, after such close observation, Yun Xi was surprised to find that Red Lotus and White Lotus were the same, just like the front and back of a mirror.

  If it wasn't because their clothes were in different colors, Yun Xi was not confident that he could distinguish them.

  "One more straw, please." Just as Red Lotus sipped, White Lotus used her hidden weapon: asking for the third straw!

  "All right." The waiter smiled and quickly brought the third straw, which made Red Lotus's mind totally go blank.

  "Sip! Sip! Sip!"

  In the quiet dessert store, White Lotus' face was filled with a cheerful smile. She enjoys the special three-person dessert together with her sister Red Lotus and Yun Xi.

  In the scene reflected by the ice shaking in the goblet, the three people's expressions were different.

  Yun Xi was distressed, surprised, and finally helpless.

  Red Lotus was shocked and distressed, she wanted to say something but didn't dare say it, she wanted to give up but couldn't give up. Finally, she could only surrender and accept the fact.

  Undoubtedly, there was only one winner in the end.

  White Lotus.

  Chapter 521: The Future Can Be Changed

  "Hum!" Red Lotus stared at Yun Xi as if she was a big gray wolf who was looking at a little white rabbit.

  Yun Xi kept silent and tried to ignore Red Lotus' eyes.

  "Ah!" Red Lotus sipped the drink and continued to threaten Yun Xi with her evil eyes.

  Yun Xi still kept silent and tried to show his goodwill with a smile.

  "Crack!" Red Lotus almost bit off the straw. She raised her eyebrows like an angry dragon.

  You're not Hua Huo, you are just a maid!

  Why does White Lotus think so much of you? She not only let you attend our precious sacrificial ceremony, but also invited you to share the fruit drink with her.

  Even I myself had never come here with White Lotus and shared the same cup of dessert in such an embarrassing way!

  I'm so envious of you... No, it's so uninteresting!

  If you can understand what I'm thinking through my eyes, you'd better quickly release the straw and immediately disappear for me!

  Yun Xi showed a bitter smile, he really wanted to immediately disappear from here, running away from this witch who was staring at him with killing intention in her eyes.

  Unfortunately, this wasn't something he could make a decision on.

  If he said that he wanted to leave, White Lotus wouldn't allow it, and more importantly, Golden Crow Princess who was curious about his palm print wouldn't allow it either.

  Oh, I really want to become a fish and swim in the vast sea, or turn into a bird, flying in the endless sky.

  For the first time, Yun Xi found that "freedom" was such a luxurious right.

  "Um... Um... " After studying Yun Xi's palm print, Golden Crow Princess showed a very satisfied smile on her face.

  "Great god, you know 'physiognomy'?"

  White Lotus looks at Golden Crow Princess' smiling face with curiosity.

  "No, but Mei's hands are beautiful, soft and comfortable."

  Golden Crow Princess didn't hide her mind at all.

  Her little face turned red because of excitement, looking like a pink apple.

  "Oh, of course, it's very soft..." White Lotus narrowed her eyes and wasn't sure whether Golden Crow Princess was joking or taking it seriously.

  She had used her secret skill, the Great Circulation to predict her future with the prince many times, but all she got, was no accurate result every time.

  Mortals followed a fixed trajectory of life, therefore, it was easy to predict their future using the Great Circulation.

  Hero ranked beings had the ability to modify their own trajectory of life. It was very difficult to predict their futures. The accuracy rate of her Great Circulation was only about 30%.

  As for the legend ranked beings, basically no one can predict their future, unless it was a legend ranked being who had the same ability as Ouroboros.

  Unfortunately, till now the only well-known hero ranked prophet was Ouroboros, and every time it predicted the future, it would be unable to predict again for many years.

  The fact that the Great Circulation couldn't figure out the future of the prince only meant one thing, that the fate of the prince was far beyond any people's imagination.

  Every time she used the Great Circulation, she could see distinct futures.

  In the first future she had seen, the prince would become the owner of a small bread store and give up his childhood, marrying three or four girls in the small town, having a lot of children with them.

  And this was also the commonest and most deceptive future.

  In the second future, it seemed that at the age of eighteen, he would meet a miss of a rich family and fall in love with her at first sight. After that, he would give up his childhood sweethearts and leave the small town, and then get involved in the inheritance dispute of a country and become the lover of a queen.

  Incidentally, this queen was now the leader of the Starwing Knights, Hua Yue.

  In the third future, he would be lost in the mountains and then accidentally meet a girl who had just awakened her fighting talent. He would join the team formed by the girl and becomes an excellent supporter. Finally, he and the girl would get married and travel around the world.

  The girl who saved the prince in the third future was now also in the Starwing Knights. Her name was Xiao Cao.

  White Lotus had calculated thirty-seven different futures. It could be said that every girl of Starwing Knights had a special relationship in their future with the prince.

  In these futures, the prince's identity was con
stantly changing, but there was only one thing unchanged.

  Amongst all the futures, the prince would marry more than one girl.

  Amongst all the futures, his invincible childhood sweetheart, Hua Huo would become a loser, she would be knocked out of the competition even before the competition began.

  Finally, no matter which future it was, she and her sister didn't even appear once.

  Judging from this, White Lotus guessed that these futures may have existed in the past, but they must all be over now.

  From the moment they and the prince met in the dark forest, the wheel of fate had been turned to a completely different direction.

  It also meant that the futures she observed were just the futures that existed in the past.

  When the twin witches and the prince encountered each other, their futures had been forever changed.

  No, maybe even earlier, their fate had been connected with the prince.

  The more White Lotus observed the prince, the more threads of fate she could find that were being projected from all directions of the vast sky, twining around the prince.

  This also led to a result that anyone who wanted to predict the prince's fate couldn't get the right answer.

  No one, not even a god, could figure out all his threads of fate.

  Well, is this also a talent of the prince?

  Chapter 522: The Bell of the Seven Towers

  In the dessert store, Yun Xi, White Lotus, and Red Lotus finally finished the fruit drink, and he could finally run away from Red Lotus' murderous eyes.

  Of course, it was just Yun Xi's imagination.

  His name, "Mei" had been recorded on Red Lotus' blacklist as the second target.

  What? Do you want to know who the first person is on the list?

  Of course, it was the prince who stole her sister's first kiss in the dream!

  Because of him, Red Lotus was extremely sensitive to any clues related to the prince. If she could, she would immediately pull the prince out of the dream right now, and burn him to death with fire.

  Your sister is dangerous... Yun Xi communicated with White Lotus through his eyes.
