Chapter 167 Abao Learns to Show Weakness

Not daring to continue eavesdropping, afraid that her emotions would reveal her presence and be discovered by Feng Xiu, A Bao, clutching her broken heart, hurriedly headed towards her bedroom.

Seriously, Po has broken through all defenses!
He knew how accurate the Star Demon God's prophecies were; they had never been wrong.

Now, he actually heard from the Star Demon God that he had no possibility of accepting the Demon Race. How could he accept this?
He had been the crown prince for over 20 years when he was suddenly told that he was not the heir.

Ah Bao's heart was struck a heavy blow, and his face turned pale.

"No, I cannot allow anyone to take my place as heir, especially not him!"

"He wants to take my place, but we'll see if he's lucky enough to actually do it!"

"So what if it's a prophecy? I simply don't believe it!"

Ah Bao gritted his teeth and vowed in his heart that he would definitely cut off any possibility of Long Haochen inheriting the throne of the Demon God Emperor.

Because he was too emotional and the Star Demon God's words dealt him a huge blow, A Bao looked extremely miserable.

When Mendi, who had come to see Abao, saw Abao's incredibly pale face, he felt a pang of heartache.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"

Upon hearing the doorbell, Abao immediately snapped out of his daze. Seeing the doorbell and the worry in his eyes, he felt as if he had found a source of comfort.

"Door whistle, what do we do..."

Ah Bao hugged Men Di tightly, immediately showing his vulnerability and showing his fragile side like a wounded little animal.

Bai Xi once said that it's okay to show vulnerability in front of people who care about you.

"What should I do, Mendi? My father wants to depose me from my position as crown prince, Mendi..."

"Am I going to lose everything? Are you going to leave me too?"

"Mendi... you will always stay by my side, assist me, and help me protect my position as crown prince, okay..."

"Mendi, you're my only brother left..."

Suddenly being hugged, a burst of damage from the door whistle: ...

This is a lot of information, and his brain is struggling to process it.

However, when he saw A Bao show such a vulnerable look to him for the first time, Men Di's heart immediately softened.

This is the Crown Prince whom he has served for nearly 20 years!
He simply couldn't bring himself to be ruthless.

The soft-hearted Mendi was completely unaware that he had been tricked by Abao.

And Ah Bao would never have known that if he had just eavesdropped a little more, many unnecessary misunderstandings would have been avoided.

At this very moment, inside the Demon God's Palace.

Demon God Emperor Fengxiu was not particularly happy about the prophecy about Abao revealed by the Star Demon God.

On the contrary, they were quite shocked.

"How could that be? How could Abao not have the potential to inherit the Demon Clan's power?"

Only Fengxiu himself knows the weight Abao holds in his heart and the high hopes he places on him.

Ah Bao is his first in line to succeed him.

Even though Vasak had predicted that Bai Xi was the hope of the Demon Clan, and even though he doted on Bai Xi and had considered having her inherit the Demon Clan's throne.

However, he simply couldn't decide who should inherit the demon race.

That's why the Star Demon God made a prophecy to see if Bai Xi had a chance to inherit the Demon Clan.

However, who knew that Bai Xi could not be prophesied?

And Ah Bao had no hope of inheriting the Demon Clan.

"Vasak, did you foresee the reason why Abao could not inherit the throne of the Demon God Emperor?"

Fengxiu pressed on, somewhat worried about hearing a bad answer.

He worried that the reason why Abao could not inherit the inheritance was due to factors such as death.

Upon hearing Feng Xiu's question, Vasak paused, his expression slightly unnatural, before slowly speaking. "Brother, don't worry. In my prophecy, Prince Abao didn't lose his right to inherit the Demon Emperor's throne due to an accident. Rather—"

"Voluntarily relinquishing the throne of the Demon God Emperor."

"Volunteer?"

Although Fengxiu still didn't understand, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, everything is alright.

"It seems your prediction was correct. Since Abao didn't inherit my position, only Xixi can inherit it."

In the face of his heir to the throne, Fengxiu currently only thinks of these two people.

Unless both of these two people meet with some kind of accident, there's no possibility of considering a third person.

"Yes, brother, if nothing unexpected happens, it's only her."

In Vasak's mind, Bai Xi had a high probability of inheriting the throne of the Demon God Emperor. This was not only because of his unpredictable reverse prophecy, but also because he himself supported Bai Xi more.

Yes, Vasak has been bribed by Bai Xi.

An only son, and a pill to prolong life.

This demon prince has already made the choice of which emperor they will follow.

Bai Xi, who was still in seclusion in the Tower of Eternity, had no idea that someone had placed such a treasure on her.

At this very moment, she was overjoyed that Long Haochen had broken through to the seventh level.

"Great, great! Today is also our sixteenth birthday, double happiness, Chenchen."

After Long Haochen made his breakthrough, Bai Xi immediately offered her encouragement.

"I'm already 16 years old, and we're both at the seventh level. Why don't you start calling me brother, Xixi? Consider it my birthday present."

However, Long Haochen asked Bai Xi for a birthday present, hoping to get Bai Xi to change her mind.

"Well, I'm going to check on Cai'er's cultivation. She's about to break through to the seventh level."

Bai Xi ignored Long Haochen's words and tried to sneak away.

However, she did not manage to sneak away, because Sheng Cai'er woke up from her meditation and looked at Bai Xi with a smile.

"So, you two are planning to gang up on me, huh?"

Bai Xi was so angry that she stomped her feet. She glared at Long Haochen angrily, then, as if she had thought of something, she forced a funny smile.

"Chenchen, it's not that I don't call you brother. It's just that you're actually my younger brother."

Long Haochen: "Huh?"

"You didn't know that, did you? According to medical standards, in cases of natural twin delivery, the one that is born first is usually the smaller one."

The first egg to be born is the fertilized egg that implants after fertilization, and that fertilized egg is, biologically speaking, the smaller one.

"You were born fifteen minutes before me, so you are the younger one."

There's another possibility that Bai Xi never mentioned it.

If one of the newborn twins is weak and the other is healthy, the weak one is actually the smaller one.

"That's nonsense! I've never heard of that before. Well, you'd actually come up with something like this just to avoid calling me 'brother'."

Long Haochen was convinced that Bai Xi was making things up and firmly maintained his status as the elder brother.

"I didn't make this up; that's how it's described in medicine!"

"I won't listen. I won't listen."
