The improved female villains regained their memories.

"Hmm, Master, what's wrong? Can't I choose this path?"

“Deduction is different from killing and fighting. It involves the fate of all things,” the Demon King said. “The fate of all things is predetermined. Birds fly in the sky, beasts run on the ground, and fish swim in the water. These are all fates. When we see all things moving, we see the power of creation of heaven and earth. To comprehend the fate of all things is to pay the price of one’s lifespan.”

“You are born with insufficient vital energy. If you pursue the path of divination, your lifespan will only be shorter. Therefore, I do not really want you to take this path.”

"If possible, I would prefer you to learn physical cultivation. Physical cultivation involves health preservation and can make up for your lack of innate vital energy. As long as you practice diligently, you can still live to a ripe old age like ordinary people."

“But…” Ling Tianxin looked up and asked her master for the first time, “Wouldn’t it be too boring to live like this?”

The Demon King was stunned: "What?"

“Master, I understand what you’re saying, but I don’t want to live like that,” Ling Tianxin said. “What’s the difference between living a mediocre life and being dead? You said that all things have a predetermined fate. Does that mean my fate is to stubbornly survive? If so, I will change my fate and modify my destiny.”

She looked out the window: "I firmly believe that everything has its destiny, but destiny cannot determine everything. Just like me, I was born with insufficient vital energy, which I cannot change. However, I can change my future and how I die. Therefore, I would like to ask my master to teach me the method of divination."

Her eyes were so firm that even the Demon King was momentarily moved.

“Ling Tiandu is definitely the protagonist of the main world, after all, the revelation that the ancients received from the [Heavenly Dao] must be correct.” The Demon King thought to himself, “But why does Ling Tiandu have no interest in the method of divination? On the contrary, her younger sister is extremely interested in the method of divination. Her understanding of destiny and fate is already profound enough. If she can learn systematically, she will definitely achieve remarkable success in the field of divination in the future.”

"Fine, I'll teach her then."

With this thought in mind, the Demon King no longer resisted. He summoned the divination manual and handed it to Ling Tianxin.

"You can take a look first. This is a communication symbol. If you don't understand anything, you can use this symbol to contact me. Also, don't force yourself."

"Thank you, Master." Ling Tianxin smiled happily.

Spring goes and autumn comes, time flies. Autumn has arrived, the autumn wind is bleak, Jiutian City is golden and bright. Ling Tianxin is wearing a cotton-padded coat and stands in the pavilion in the courtyard.

She had been standing there for a long time, watching the flowers wither and the leaves fall. She looked at the sky and the ground, and her understanding grew deeper and deeper.

A gust of wind blew by, and countless autumn leaves on the floor in front of us were blown about, naturally forming the characters for "Heaven and Earth".

"How profound!" Ling Tianxin exclaimed. "The Qian hexagram represents the strongest and most vigorous force in the world. Its strength lies in its enduring and easygoing nature, and its lack of selfishness, thus it can clearly illuminate the dangerous things in the world. The Kun hexagram represents the most yielding nature. Its yielding nature lies in its enduring and tranquil nature, thus it can clearly discern the causes of the world's troubles and obstacles. The principles deduced from this can bring harmony to the mind and body, enable one to focus on studying all thoughts, determine the principles of good fortune, misfortune, regret, and shame in the world, and accomplish the world's diligent and tireless endeavors."

She reached out, grasped a leaf, and understood.

"The sages of the human race united with the Dao, so the Dao of Heaven was no longer purely the Dao of Heaven; it began to favor people, thus forming the Dao of Humanity," Ling Tian thought. "However, the Dao of Heaven is unpredictable and will not allow the human race to grow too powerful. Therefore, it sends out the will of Heaven, constantly giving birth to those with extraordinary will. These people are undoubtedly geniuses, with ambitions higher than the heavens. Each of them thinks of abolishing the Dao of Heaven, but little do they know that this is exactly what the Dao of Heaven wants to see. Only in this way can the Dao of Heaven completely get rid of the influence of the Dao of Humanity. Therefore, it endows such people with extremely high nature and extremely high talent. The ultimate goal is to break into the gate and liberate the Dao of Heaven. Such people are the villains."

"However, the sages of humanity were not willing to accept this, so they used human will to distort the will of heaven, constantly creating protagonists to fight against villains. For example, my sister and I. Heaven bestowed upon me countless talents, but in the process, human will intervened, causing my sister to steal my talents and vital energy while I was still in the womb, but..."

Ling Tianxin chuckled softly, stepped down from the pavilion, and stood amidst countless maple leaves, squatting down to look at the two characters "Qiankun" formed by heaven and earth.

"But I never expected that I would be the villain."

"According to the methods of deduction, I have understood my destiny. Heaven's will has entered me; I have received Heaven's attention. I estimate that my soul already contains the power of Heaven's will. If..."

With a gentle touch of her sleeve, she stirred the maple leaves, allowing the characters for "heaven and earth" to return to nature.

Looking back on history and surveying all things, Ling Tianxin, through her research and deduction methods, should have understood her destiny.

However, she did not agree, but only chuckled.

Contrary to what the Demon King had said, she did not suffer physical decline from studying the methods of deduction. On the contrary, she became more and more energetic, and the more she deduced, the more excited she became.

Two weeks later, she went to find her father and mother and said to them, "Dad, Mom, I'm much better now. I want to take this opportunity to travel around."

Her mother was very worried, but Ling Wuhan didn't think much of it. He personally arranged bodyguards for Ling Tianxin and said to her, "You've been staying at home all year round. If you want to go out for a walk, that's fine, but you must be careful. I've given you magical artifacts and talismans, which can protect you in critical moments."

"Father, don't worry, I know what to do."

--------

Ling Tianxin has traveled to many places.

She picks flowers in the south of Qian Kingdom, overlooks the snow scene in the north of Qian Kingdom, crosses the desert in the west of Qian Kingdom, and greets the sea breeze in the east of Qian Kingdom.

She saw many people, experienced many things, and constantly honed her deductive methods. Finally, in a Gobi Desert in the western region, she found the deductive relics left by the immortals.

"There are three methods of deduction, two of which have been lost. Could this be one of the two lost methods, the Lianshan Yi?"

She entered the secret room, followed the signs, and marveled at the murals on the walls until she entered the innermost chamber.

"This is?"

Inside the spacious hall, the dark stone walls were covered with hexagrams, and the floor was scattered with stars, forming a star chart. In the center, not far away, was a huge sphere of light, as if something was brewing within it.

"Is it some kind of formation? No, it seems that there is some kind of life form inside that ball of light."

Ling Tianxin used her deduction technique immediately, but not long after, she vomited blood.

"The sphere of light contains the will of Heaven, an endless will of Heaven."

She was extremely shocked.

It should be noted that her soul contained the will of Heaven, though only a trace of it, but enough to make her exceptionally talented and achieve great success in her divination. The will of Heaven in this sphere of light is a hundred times greater than the will of Heaven in her soul, and it is still increasing, already taking on a shape similar to an embryo.

"Whose handiwork is this? Heaven is ruthless; it's impossible for it to have arranged something like this. It must have been someone who set this up, and this person did so with great care, as if they were taking advantage of the will of Heaven."

Utilization.

The idea suddenly exploded in Ling Tianxin's mind.

Yes, why can't we take advantage of fate?

Looking back at our ancestors, they were part of the Way of Heaven. However, when Fuxi created the heavens and earth and drew the Eight Trigrams, he began the earliest use of the Way of Heaven.

Civilization was born by utilizing the Way of Heaven. The Way of Heaven is vast and far-reaching; it will never care who uses it. It simply acts like a program, constantly suppressing the strongest, all because of the Way of Heaven's characteristic of diminishing the surplus and replenishing the deficiency. Since it is a characteristic, it can naturally be utilized.

"This is not a struggle between the Way of Heaven and the Way of Man; it is an old monster who is using the Way of Heaven to fight against them."

Ling Tianxin broke out in a cold sweat.

Since this person can manipulate the will of Heaven, then by the same token, he can certainly make the will of Heaven enter whose body he wants. Even his own arrival here is part of his scheme.

Thinking of this, Ling Tianxin was about to leave, but before she could, she was attracted by something.

"……This is?"

--------------------

Ling Tianxin's travels broadened her horizons.

Her eyes deepened, which also made her more alluring. She was still smiling, but her smile had become unfathomable, and even the Demon King could not see through it.

The green mountains stand tall, surrounded by azure clouds.

When Ling Tianxin first set foot on the territory of the Guardian Heaven Sect, she showed no curiosity about her surroundings and remained respectful, behaving like a child.

In the main hall, the Demon King received her, looking at his disciple with a complicated expression.

He never expected that Ling Tiandu had made no progress in divination, while Ling Tianxin had made great progress. Ling Tianxin had now reached the level of "divine calculation" through divination, and could know the affairs of the world without leaving home. She had grasped the trajectory of all things.

Ling Tiandu, instead of repenting, became increasingly extreme. She refused to reconcile with the Demon King, becoming violent and extreme. Her talent was used to satisfy her destructive desires, and she broke free of the shackles of the Abyss Demon Cave and escaped.

During her time in the Abyss Demon Cave, she was not suppressed at all. On the contrary, she broke through to the Heavenly Immortal level, and her overall strength rose to a new level. Apart from True Immortals, no one in the world could rival her.

"I called you here today because I need your help. Your sister has disappeared somewhere, and I need to use your deductive abilities."

"No problem, Master, leave it to me."

Ling Tianxin immediately used her divination skills and quickly calculated her sister's location.

“Master,” she said, looking at the Demon King, “my sister is in Nine Heavens City.”

Nine Heavens City.

Ling Tiandu, disguised as an ordinary person, strolled through the city.

She was dressed in a black robe and wore a mask, waiting silently somewhere.

Yes, no one expected that the reason she went to all this trouble to come out was actually to see someone.

Her lover was Yi Changcun.

Ling Tiandu first met Yi Changcun when she was a child.

At that time, she was exceptionally talented and was recognized as a genius in Jiutian City, while Yi Changcun was the child of their family's servant.

Everyone flattered her, but Yi Changcun remained indifferent to her.

He was neither afraid of her nor flattered her; he treated her as usual, with an ordinary heart.

If you ask when Ling Tiandu fell in love with him, it was probably around that time.

After she was captured by the Demon King, she didn't have time to send a letter home, so she didn't make any arrangements for Yi Changcun. As a result, Yi Changcun has not had a good life in recent years.

But none of that matters anymore, because she's back.

Soon, she saw Yi Changcun's figure appear at the gate of the mansion. Her heart stirred, and she was about to step forward when she suddenly heard a voice.

"May it endure!"

Not far away, another woman ran over and rushed into Yi Changcun's arms.

She froze, and in an instant, a chill enveloped her, making her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

She knew the woman; she was also the child of a servant. Her mother had worked as her maid for a while, taking care of her daily needs. Ling Tiandu looked down on such people from the bottom of her heart, but she never expected that her daughter would be with the man she loved.

In an instant, indescribable emotions such as jealousy, twisted feelings, anger, and pain surged into my heart.

Her mind seemed to be gripped by something, and black flames burned in her eyes.

"Brother Changcun, where shall we go today?"

"There's nothing much to do at the manor today, so how about we go somewhere a bit further out, like outside the city?"

"Okay!"

Ling Tiandu watched the two leave the city with a gloomy face.

From childhood to adulthood, she always got what she set her sights on.

When she was thirsty, there was water; when she was hungry, there was food; when her cultivation was hindered, miracles appeared, leading her to enlightenment. Apart from that one time with her master, she had never suffered a loss.

"A lowly person, a mere mortal, how dare he, how dare he!!!"

The black fire burned fiercely until the evil flower emitted a fragrant aroma.

On the way, the Demon King stopped, a bad premonition rising in his heart.

"Master," Ling Tianxin looked at him, "what's wrong?"

"I have a bad feeling. Where is your sister now?"

"Still in Nine Heavens City...wait, it seems we've left the city."
