Miao Yu replied, "I feel that for now, the Heavenly Fox Martial Soul within my body is still quite strong, and it can still suppress the Absolute Yin Energy!"

"Exactly because your Heavenly Fox Martial Soul is still strong now, you are able to suppress the Absolute Yin Energy. However, there will come a day when your Heavenly Fox Martial Soul will reach its limit, and once you encounter this bottleneck, the Absolute Yin Energy within you will violently surge! Once the Absolute Yin Energy overwhelms the power of your Heavenly Fox Martial Soul, it would be very difficult for you to overcome this situation! Later on, the two powers will not be able to merge together, and that will cause your body to self-destruct!"

Duan Gujin explained.

"Now, I finally understand what's going on!"

Not until this moment did Miao Yu fully realize the situation.

"Understanding is good! What did you mean earlier by that rite of purification?"

Duan Gujin tentatively asked.

"The Priest said you are my True Destiny, and only you can save me; she meant for me to become husband and wife with you!"

Miao Yu's face flushed slightly.

"So that's how it is!"

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered for a moment, as he immediately thought of a possibility.

"I have heard that the Heavenly Fox Clan possesses the ability to predict the future, so it's possible that the old woman foresaw that I could save Miao Yu. However, if her prediction that you and I were lovers in a previous life is wrong, then the predictions could very likely be a misinterpretation!"

He took a deep breath and asked, "Can you tell me what the prediction said?"

"Twelve characters, 'At twenty, like a flower, meet true destiny, reverse heaven and earth!' You perfectly fit these words of the prediction, so you are my True Destiny!"

Miao Yu replied.

Upon hearing this, Duan Gujin sharply inhaled a breath of cold air.

He couldn't help feeling amazed by the old woman's divination ability; at least on the surface, he perfectly corresponded with the meaning of those twelve characters.

"So, this is the origin of the 'True Destiny' phrase she used!"

He felt something odd in his heart, acknowledging the meaning of those twelve words. The term 'True Destiny' doesn't necessarily mean that he is her destined one but only implies that he can help her be free from the torment of the Absolute Yin Body.

Duan Gujin knew that people with such a constitution must rely on a strong Yang attribute power to suppress the Absolute Yin Energy within them.

Generally speaking, to suppress the Absolute Yin Energy, the best method is to practice a Cultivation Technique that contains Absolute Yang Energy.

Using Absolute Yang Energy to suppress Absolute Yin Energy can be twice as effective with half the effort.

But if you were to make Miao Yu from the Devil Clan practice a Cultivation Technique assisted by Absolute Yang Energy, it would be extremely difficult.

After all, the Devil Clan's constitution naturally rejects Yang attribute energy; it is also impossible for them to practice Cultivation Techniques of the Yang attribute.

Miao Yu can only suppress the Absolute Yin Energy within her by using the Heavenly Fox Martial Soul, which is why she has managed to hold on until now.

And her recent physical condition is telling her that she might not even make it through this year.

That's why she's anxious and has held the Martial Arts Competition—she hopes that her True Destiny arrives sooner.

Duan Gujin's expression turned odd; initially, he only wanted to learn how to get to the Human Race World from Miao Yu, but he didn't expect to end up being her True Destiny in the end.

Despite Miao Yu's celestial beauty, he wasn't in the mood for romance.

His eyes flickered with resolve, deciding to have Miao Yu lead him out of the Hundred Saints Mountain first.

"Miao Yu, if you want to solve your problem, then we should leave the Hundred Saints Mountain first and head to the Human Race World!"

Duan Gujin said.

"Oh, but our Heavenly Fox Clan has already prepared all the materials for the purification ritual. Are you sure you don't want to undergo the ritual first?"

Miao Yu asked.

"We have plenty of time for that! We're not in a hurry for the moment!"

Duan Gujin exhaled, saying.

"Alright, then I'll take you to the Human Race World!"

Miao Yu responded.

"That's great, thank you. I still have a friend waiting outside; I think the three of us should set off together, head back to the Human Race World first, and then I'll find sufficient Spiritual Medicine outside to resolve your physical issues. Afterwards, we can discuss our strategy together!"

Duan Gujin said.

"Okay, lead the way! Wait a second, first put on your mask and clothes! This is Devil Clan territory, and the Devils here hate the Human Clan to the bone!"

"I understand!"

Thus, Duan Gujin put the mask back on and dressed in his outer robe. At least on the surface, as long as he didn't deliberately exude the aura of the Human Clan, those Devils would be temporarily unable to discern his Human Clan identity with the naked eye or Divine Sense.

"Let's set off right away!"

Miao Yu said.

She also put on a mask and then pulled Duan Gujin to set out together.

"Okay!"

Under Duan Gujin's lead, they quickly arrived at the place where Luo Ying was.

At this time, upon seeing Duan Gujin, Luo Ying became alert as she noticed an extra Devil beside him.

"Junior Brother Duan, who is this?"

Luo Ying immediately asked anxiously as she drew her Longsword.

If anything seemed amiss, she was prepared to strike at Duan Gujin and Miao Yu on a moment's notice.

She couldn't be certain whether the Devil was captured by Duan Gujin or if Duan Gujin had been captured by the Devil.

Therefore, she had to remain cautious.

Duan Gujin's brow furrowed; it was only now that he realized he had been so preoccupied with how to deal with Miao Yu that he had forgotten to consider Luo Ying's feelings.

"Luo Ying, don't misunderstand, this is my friend!"

Duan Gujin said.

"Friend?"

Luo Ying's delicate brows slightly furrowed; she found it hard to believe that a member of the Human Clan and the Devil Clan could be in a friendly relationship.

Duan Gujin covertly transmitted his voice to Miao Yu: "She is my friend, it's difficult to explain at the moment, let's leave first and talk later!"

"Okay!"

Miao Yu watched Duan Gujin and Luo Ying with a strange expression on her face, then sighed.

Seeing the look on Miao Yu's face, Duan Gujin guessed that she might have misunderstood.

So, he hurriedly transmitted his voice to her in secret.

"Miao Yu, I am her junior brother; she is my senior sister. Our relationship is that of senior and junior fellow disciples."

"Oh, so it's a romance between senior sister and junior brother, huh!"

After a while, he received Miao Yu's transmitted voice.

Hearing her secret message, his eyes widened, feeling his mouth go dry.

"You misunderstood, we are really just fellow disciples!"

"I understand! You don't need to explain!"

Hearing Miao Yu's secret message, he was at a loss for words.

"Fine, I won't explain anymore; the truth isn't what you think it is!"

"You really don't need to explain. Your explanation sounds like a cover-up, a cover-up means it's true! I'll observe for myself!"

Miao Yu's response almost made Duan Gujin choke with frustration, and he struggled to calm himself down.

"Let's set off! Follow me!"

Miao Yu quickly said to Duan Gujin and Luo Ying.

"Where are we going?" Luo Ying asked, puzzled.

"I'm going to take you both away from Hundred Saints Mountain!"

Miao Yu replied.

"Oh!"

Luo Ying's eyes flickered; she felt it was still best to remain on guard. She had to be wary of Duan Gujin and the Devil ahead.
