Shenzhou Country, Capital City, Ning Family.

In the calendar of Shenzhou, the year 1988, December 12th, around 10 o'clock in the morning.

Weng Lanlan, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ning Family, was lying in the luxurious birthing room specially designated by the Ning Family, ready for childbirth.

The whole Ning Family was on high alert, tensely awaiting the birth of the twins in her belly.

One of the twins in Weng Lanlan's stomach had been prophesied by the widely respected master of Huguo Temple in the Capital City—the venerable Master Xuan Yuan—as a child born with the destiny of a phoenix, an extremely precious child!

Born with the destiny of a phoenix!

Could they be treated like an ordinary child?

Master Xuan Yuan was known in Capital City's Huguo Temple for his infallible predictions.

Had it not been for his passing by the Ning's luxurious residence a few days before Weng Lanlan's delivery, where he happened to see the prestigious image of a phoenix spreading its wings around the mansion, he would not have gone out of his way to enter the house and divine the fate of this unborn Ning child.

Master Xuan Yuan seriously and earnestly told the family head Ning Changsheng, "One of the children in Weng Lanlan's belly is born with the destiny of a phoenix. As long as your family treats them well, they will surely bring endless glory and wealth to your Ning Family."

After uttering these words, he drifted away.

The members of the Ning Family were naturally overjoyed upon hearing Master Xuan Yuan's prophecy.

Sparing no expenses as money was not an issue for them, to prevent any mishap such as baby-swapping or mistakes in the delivery, the family decided after discussion to let Weng Lanlan give birth at home.

They spent a substantial amount of money to hire professional gynecologists, nurses, and maternity matrons to be ready at any time for the birth of the Ning's precious little princess.

But with the twins in Weng Lanlan's belly, which one was the true master of the phoenix destiny?

Outside the birthing room, three generations of the Ning Family's direct lineage were all waiting anxiously, eager to welcome the arrival of their little princess at the earliest moment.

The first-generation, Old Master Ning and Madam Ning;

The second-generation, the current family head Ning Changsheng, his wife Long Lirong;

And Ning Yu, the father-to-be.

Ning Yu paced back and forth outside the birthing room, incessantly checking his watch and listening to his wife's faint screams inside, his worry intensifying, "Why hasn't she given birth yet? It's truly torturous!"

Just as he finished speaking, the loud cry of a baby suddenly filled the air.

Ning Yu immediately lit up with excitement, cheering to his grandparents and parents, "She's given birth! Lanlan has given birth! Our little princess is born! Hahaha, our little princess is born!"

While his family was overwhelmed with excitement and anticipation for the doctors to bring the child out for them to see, those guarding outside the birthing room suddenly heard a sharp, piercing scream from inside, "Aaaaah..."

Immediately afterward, the doors to the birthing room burst open.

A female doctor wearing a white coat, screaming like a madwoman and with a face full of panic and fear, rushed out from inside, "A monster! A monster! A monster with three eyes!!!"

The old master of the Ning Family, hearing her scream about a "monster" repeatedly, instantly turned a dark shade of anger, and shouted furiously at his son Ning Changsheng, "What are you standing around for? Stop that crazy woman! If she goes out shouting like that, do you want to ruin our Ning Family's reputation? Stop her! Stop her at once!"

Upon thinking about the terrible consequences of this female doctor spreading the news, Ning Changsheng was immediately seized with fear, trembling all over.

He rushed forward and caught the female doctor, delivering a palm strike to the back of her neck that knocked her unconscious to the floor.

The other nurses and maternity nannies who had followed her out were petrified when they saw Ning Changsheng strike down the woman with a dark look on his face. They stood in place, their faces ashen, huddled together in fear.

Would the Ning Family kill all of them to silence them?

They had heard of how ruthless and relentless Ning Changsheng was. To achieve his goals, he would stop at nothing. Once someone interfered with his interests, he was the kind of person who would not even acknowledge his own relatives.

Ning Changsheng advanced step by step towards them, his eyes coldly fixed on each one as he spoke with a clear threat, "Please, go in and sit for a while. Rest assured, as long as you all cooperate, our Ning Family will certainly not treat you unfairly!"

The nurses and maternity nannies, upon meeting Ning Changsheng's chilling gaze, felt a tingling in their scalps and hastily retreated back into the delivery room.

After ensuring control over these few individuals, Ning Changsheng entered the delivery room with the elder Mr. and Mrs. Ning, his wife Long Lirong, and his son Ning Yu.

They could no longer afford to care about any superstitions now; they just wanted to see for themselves if this newborn girl was really the three-eyed monster as those people had claimed.

Inside the delivery room, Weng Lanlan, after hearing that she had given birth to a monster, had already fainted from shock.

Next to the birthing bed, a baby girl who was the first to be born lay wrapped up in an infant bed.

Another newborn baby girl was lying naked on the side, her umbilical cord still uncut, her eyes bright as stars as she silently observed her new surroundings with her black eyes.

The Ning Family suppressed the fear in their hearts and approached to look...

Instantly, they were so frightened that they gasped for air, and their faces turned extremely unpleasant.

This little baby girl indeed had a third eye on her forehead!!!

Her third eye radiated a dazzling, enchanting brilliance as if it could see through all things and swallow everything.

When the baby's third eye swept fiercely over the people of the Ning Family, they all felt as though they had been targeted by some ancient beast, immediately feeling strands of fear and dread, which quickly spread throughout their bodies, causing their minds to nearly collapse.

Long Lirong, the baby's maternal grandmother, was so terrified that she widened her eyes and shrieked first, "It's truly a monster! Oh my God! Too horrifying! Too horrifying! Too horrifying!"

Mrs. Ning, too, was so terrified that she stumbled back several steps, shaking all over.

Her aged face was covered with panic as she screamed, "A monster! It's really a monster! Someone, quickly throw her out! Get her out of here!"

Long Lirong also nodded frantically, screaming in terror, "Yes, yes, throw her out! Hurry, throw her out! Oh my god, this isn't some born Princess; it's more like a disaster star descending upon us, quick! Kill her! Kill her!"

Upon hearing the phrase "disaster star descending upon us," elder Mr. Ning's heart trembled.

Then, with a fierce look in his eyes, he shouted angrily at Long Lirong, "Shut your mouth! Master Xuan Yuan is infallible in his predictions; he can't possibly be wrong! If one is not good, isn't there another child who is perfectly fine? If we just deal with this three-eyed monster and keep the good one, won't that solve everything? Fool!"

As the current head of the family, Ning Changsheng also darkened his expression and decisively said, "The elder is right. We'll keep the good child and send the one who shouldn't exist on her way!"

A glint of icy coldness flashed through Shen Tianxing's eyes - this whole family wanted her dead!
