บท 223: Empress Wu (2)

Wu Hong nodded as this was the broad and general description of the historical events that occurred during that Era. After re-organizing her thoughts, she started to narrate:

"Well, Empress Wu was born in a very small village in the mortal world. As you can imagine, back then, the lives of mortals was even worse than cultivators as they did not even have the strength or the Will to resist the Devil Race.

"According to the law back then, every time a mortal kingdom, city or village reached a certain level of population, 90% of the people would be selected as food, slaves, or plaything for the Devil Race. As for the remaining 10%, they would be left alive in order to repopulate before the next selection.

"Right after Empress Wu was born, her parents were selected and she was raised by the old uncle in the village.

"When she was 18, she had grown into a beautiful young woman--which caught the attention of a human noble."
