Hearing the old crone's words, Duan Gujin immediately prepared for battle, his Primordial Power rushed to its peak.
If the old crone harbored any malintent, he would escape right away.
"You don't need to be nervous! Look how scared you are!"
The old crone chuckled.
However, her face full of wrinkles smiling made Duan Gujin shudder.
"So you've already seen through my Human Clan identity, speak your mind!"
Duan Gujin secretly gasped and soon thought that the old crone referring to him as Miao Yu's True Destiny might have already seen through his Human Clan identity.
"It seems I have previously underestimated these Devil Clan's ability to identify their own kind's Qi!"
Previously, Duan Gujin had thought that his Human Clan identity might be recognized by top Devil Clan members in the arena, so he had observed carefully for a while and only made his move when he was sure there were no Devil Clan masters present.
Only at this moment did he realize that he had still underestimated the abilities of the Devil Clan masters.
"Well then, let me be straightforward! This is my granddaughter, her name is Miao Yu, Miao Yu, take off your mask!"
The old crone said.
Upon hearing this, Miao Yu directly tore off her mask, revealing a face as beautiful as a celestial maiden.
Her black hair fluttered, and her eyes looked like pools of spring water, brimming with emotion.
Previously, she wore the Devil Clan's mask, which, despite her graceful figure, appeared fierce.
Now, having removed her mask and donned in a white dress, coupled with her flawless fair face, Duan Gujin almost felt as if he was seeing a goddess from the Upper Realm again.
Duan Gujin's eyes immediately brightened, even though he had encountered numerous unparalleled beauties in his previous life, he had to admit that Miao Yu could stand out in the beauty-filled Divine World, even becoming a goddess of her generation.
"I didn't expect this Female Demon could rival the goddesses of the Divine World! But since she claimed we are fated, why don't I remember ever meeting her before? Logically speaking, if such a beauty showed interest in me, I would have definitely run over excitedly and not let her slip away! What exactly is going on?"
Facing such a peerless beauty, Duan Gujin immediately regained his composure, but another question came to his mind.
"Could this be a conspiracy?"
Seeing Duan Gujin first stunned by her beauty and then becoming cautious, the old crone was very pleased inside.
"With Miao Yu's unparalleled beauty, if she was among the Human Clan, she would definitely ignite the frenzy of Human Warriors. This young man being able to calm down immediately is really extraordinary!"
The old crone was very pleased with Duan Gujin.
"You should also take off your mask! After all, you two are to continue the connection from your previous life!"
The old crone said.
Upon hearing the old crone's words, Duan Gujin's mind started racing.
After thinking for a while, he pulled off his mask, revealing a somewhat handsome face.
Seeing Duan Gujin's clear features and eyes, although not extremely handsome, he was still considered a stunning young man; the old crone was very satisfied inside.
"Miao Yu, have a chat with him!" the old crone said.
"Chat? Chat about what?"
Suddenly, Miao Yu became flustered.
"Just chat casually! If you don't want to chat, then I'll directly state my purpose! After all, you two were fated in your previous lives, bringing you two together isn't a bad thing!"
The old crone said with a smile.
Hearing this, Duan Gujin's mind started racing again.
He racked his brains for a while but still couldn't remember any interactions he had with Miao Yu in his previous life.
"Wait a minute! I have some questions to ask! Do you mind if I ask you guys?"
Duan Gujin asked anxiously.
"Not at all, just ask your questions and say what you need to say!"
The old crone said.
"Miao Yu, do you remember what your name was in your previous life? I think it was not Miao Yu, right? I don't have much recollection!"
Duan Gujin tentatively asked.
"The name Miao Yu was given to me by my mother, together with a beautiful jade she presented to me, and then she named me Miao Yu. I think this name probably wasn't used in my previous life!" Miao Yu answered.
Hearing Miao Yu's reply, Duan Gujin suddenly realized.
"So, Miao Yu's real name in her previous life was not Miao Yu, and her current appearance might also not be the same as in her previous life! I remember that after many from the Devil Clan entered the Upper Realm, they would try every means to change their appearances. Therefore, it's normal that I can't recognize her! I also don't remember dealing with a Heavenly Fox in my previous life!"
After realizing these truths, he took a deep breath and said, "Miao Yu, it's very likely that we were destined to meet in our previous lives. Whether we can reconnect in this life is up to you to decide! The choice is in your hands!"
Duan Gujin's eyes flickered, feeling that there was something odd about this matter, but he couldn't figure out what it exactly was.
After a moment, he suddenly thought of a question.
"Could it be that this Martial Arts Competition was held in wait for me?"
He realized that many aspects of his life would be different from his previous life and his life path had completely changed.
Since he could entirely change, then the current Miao Yu could definitely change her past life trajectory as well.
"It can be said that it was indeed waiting for you! I once divined for Miao Yu, and the divination indicated that one day you would come looking for us! I am a Divination Master, able to foresee some aspects of the future!"
The old crone explained.
"You are a Divination Master?"
Duan Gujin suddenly became interested and immediately asked, "Then could you divine for me? I would like you to help me find someone?"
The old crone shook her head and sighed, "The last time I divined for Miao Yu, I used up all my Life Essence. I really cannot divine for anyone anymore! Sorry, I cannot help you."
"That's alright, you should take good care of your health! Health is most important!"
Only then did Duan Gujin realize that the old crone had exhausted all her Life Essence, no wonder she appeared so frail now.
Normally, even if a member of the Devil Clan grew old and lost their vitality, as long as there's still some demonic power within them, they could expend some of it to maintain their youthful appearance.
Duan Gujin carefully connected everything the old crone and Miao Yu had said, and after some thought, he found nothing unusual in the behind-the-scenes aspects.
"Could such coincidences really exist in this world?"
Then he came upon a possibility, that the old crone might actually be able to divine some traces of the future.
Duan Gujin's eyes sparkled, and he said to Miao Yu, "Then Miao Yu, would you like to live outside with me?"
Miao Yu nodded shyly and said softly, "I'm willing, but not right now. You and I need to undergo a ritual together, and after that, I can go out with you!"
"Miao Yu, what do you mean by this ritual?"
Duan Gujin immediately grew interested.
Miao Yu's cheeks turned bright red, almost dripping blood.
She turned her head towards the old crone and gave her a look, indicating for her to explain to Duan Gujin what the ritual entailed.
The old crone chuckled and then told Duan Gujin, "In our Devil Clan, the ritual means you both purifying your bodies. Can't you see? Miao Yu has a curse on her, and to break this curse, the True Destiny is needed!"
Duan Gujin struggled to understand the concept of purifying their bodies for the moment, but upon hearing about the curse on Miao Yu, he immediately said, "Miao Yu, could you let me see what's going on with your body?"
"Sure!"
Miao Yu answered with a coy face.
