Incineration Moon City’s snow melted instantly, and the bitter cold that once could be felt at every corner of the city was no more .
“The snow really stopped?” The people in the inner courtyard were shocked .
As the door opened, an old woman walked out with a baby wrapped in her arms .
“Congratulations Governor, it is a healthy boy,” the old lady said with a smile .
“Bring him over,” Zhuo Yunfeng said .
The old lady brought it over for Zhuo Yunfeng to check .
“It really is a boy?” Zhuo Yunfeng and Zhuo Peng gulped .
Everything the Taoist Priest Xuan Shen had said was correct .
From the time, to the snow, and even down to the gender of the baby .
“Elder, you are god-like indeed, I atone for my insolence,” Zhuo Yunfeng immediately apologised to Taoist Priest Xuan Shen .
“Elder Xuan Shen, please forgive us,” Zhuo Peng apologised as well .
They only knew about the Taoist Elder’s reputation but had never seen him perform .
But now they knew that he was a god-sent prophet .
He was beyond man .
Zhuo Yunfeng could be sure that Taoist Elder Xuan Shen was an all-knowing almighty .
At least his Rules of Fate were at astonishing levels .
“It’s nothing much, no need to worry . ” Taoist Priest Xuan Shen smiled without any malice .
Zhuo Yunfeng took a deep breath, looked at the baby, and asked the Taoist Priest Xuan Shen, “Taoist Elder, please bestow a name for our little guy . ”
“A name?” Taoist Priest Xuan Shen raised his eyebrow . “I’m here not just to bestow a name, I need to change his surname as well . ”
“Surname?” Zhuo Yunfeng and Zhuo Peng were shocked .
He was born in the Zhuo household, Zhuo Yunfeng’s son . But Taoist Priest Xuan Shen wanted to change his surname?
“Governor Zhuo, your son is special . His surname has been pre-destined,” Taoist Priest Xuan Shen said .
Zhuo Yunfeng frowned, but still said, “Please do so . ”
“No rush, wait,” Taoist Priest Xuan Shen said as he looked up towards the dark Void .
Zhuo Yunfeng and Zhuo Peng looked up, confused, but he did not see anything .
“It’s coming,” Taoist Priest Xuan Shen said .
Right after he said that, the black Void rumbled as the darkness retreated to make way for a streak of light . The streak of light gradually lit up the place and was increasingly glaring as it approached the earth .
Xiu!
Like an asteroid, the streak of light struck the inner courtyard .
A huge hole was blown up .
Everyone in the inner courtyard, including Zhuo Yunfeng and Zhuo Peng, were dumbfounded .
As the dust settled, they saw a sword in the ground!
The sword was four chi (about 1 . 3m) tall with no scabbard . The blade itself was crimson red as if it was drenched in blood .
“This is…” Zhuo Yunfeng and the others stared at the sword .
The longsword looked ordinary, but Zhuo Yunfeng saw an incomprehensible hell within it . Countless bones and endless streams of blood flowed within that hell .
It was a sword of death .
“What a terrifying sword,” Zhuo Yunfeng murmured but he was even more appalled .
Because the sword had come from the heavens .
From the heavens?
“Governor Zhuo, your kid was born by the sword and should take up the Surname Jian (meaning “sword”) . For his name, because he was in your wife’s womb for nine years, nine months and nine days, unparalleled in this earth . Name him Wushuang . ”
“Wushuang will be his name!” Taoist Priest Xuan Shen exclaimed .
“Jian as a surname, Wushuang as his name… Jian Wushuang?” Zhuo Yunfeng flinched, but quickly responded, “Unparalleled on this earth, with a sword in hand, a good name!”
“Thank you for bestowing the name,” Zhuo Yunfeng thanked .
Taoist Priest Xuan Shen laughed, “I am here for his name only . Now that that’s settled, I shall be on my way . ”
Taoist Priest Xuan Shen did not turn away immediately but instead looked at the baby . The baby’s eyes were already wide open, staring at Taoist Priest Xuan Shen .
“Little boy, we will meet again . ”
Taoist Priest Xuan Shen made his way out of the mansion .
“Thank you Elder,” Zhuo Yunfeng and Zhuo Peng bowed as he left .
“Haha~~” Taoist Priest Xuan Shen laughed casually as he disappeared from the view of others in a matter of moments .
“Taoist Priest Xuan Shen really is something else,” Zhuo Yunfeng exclaimed .
“Father, are we really going to name him Jian Wushuang?” Zhuo Peng asked .
“Of course, this is the name Taoist Elder gave . You yourself saw the sword descend from above . The name is but a tag, we can call him Jian Wushuang, we can also call him Zhuo Wushuang, it’s the same,” Zhuo Yunfeng laughed .
“Of course,” Zhuo Peng nodded .
They both were extremely excited about the newborn baby .
“Oh yes, let us show your mother,” Zhuo Yunfeng said as they headed into the room .
What the duo did not notice was that the baby’s black eyes had a glimpse of shock within them . His gaze never shifted from the direction Taoist Priest Xuan Shen had left in .
“Who was that Taoist Priest?” Jian Wushuang shouted in his heart, but he could not form any words . All that came from him were the wails of a baby .
Jian Wushuang had yet to understand what had happened .
He only remembered obtaining his wife Leng Rushuang’s soul at Heaven’s Horizon and being chased down by two Masters of Holy Land . He was dying .
But the moment he woke up, everything had changed .
