"You?" I looked at Wang Xiaohuan in surprise. The latter couldn't help but shout, "What about me? I got beaten up even more to get the secret from my shimu (martial aunt). And you're doubting me?"

"No, no, no." I quickly said, "I'm just, just a little surprised."

Butcher Wang narrowed her eyes and said, "Hurry up and talk! Don't beat around the bush. When we get back, let Li Po burn you a plate of chicken butts himself to make up for it."

"You're not allowed to say it!" Wang Xiaohuan looked like a crazed badger, baring his fangs and claws, ready to fight Butcher Wang to the death.

However, after Butcher Wang pulled out her rolling pin, he became obedient.

"Ahem!" Wang Xiaohuan coughed twice and said, "My shimu is a Shan Hai Witch God. Although she doesn't understand mingge (fate), her control over souls is unparalleled."

Wang Xiaohuan wasn't wrong. The concepts of mingge and mingshu (destiny) only became popular after the emergence of fangshi (diviners). In the era when the Witch Clan flourished, there was only the concept of the soul, and mingge hadn't been developed.

Butcher Wang's eyes narrowed completely: "Stop bragging! Get to the point."

Wang Xiaohuan could only say: "My shimu said: Li Po's soul has been altered!"

Wang Xiaohuan, afraid that I wouldn't understand, quickly explained, "According to my shimu's calculations, when your mother was pregnant with you, there should have been a fierce soul trying to devour your original soul. As a result, someone stopped it in time and saved your life."

夺舍转世 (Duoshe zhuanshi) is when a fierce soul or evil ghost enters a pregnant woman's body, devours the soul that should have been reincarnated normally, occupies the fetus's body, and is born into the world.

People born this way cannot be called human beings in the true sense. Not only are they born with memories of their previous lives, but some can even use ghost power to kill people like ghosts.

Huangquan (Underworld) stowaways reincarnate in a similar way to 夺舍转世.

If no one had stopped it at that time, I would probably have been born as an Asura!

Wang Xiaohuan continued, "The person who saved you, although they stopped the Asura's fierce soul, failed to disperse it. The other party's fierce soul has always existed within your body."

"That person, in order to save you, attracted the Tianlang (Sirius) fate soul according to your mingge, wanting to devour the Asura."

Wang Xiaohuan said, word by word, "In other words, you should have originally had a Tianlang life."

"If your mingge didn't match the fate soul, that person wouldn't have been able to attract the Tianlang soul."

Lin Zhao exclaimed, "Tianlang mingge, doesn't that mean you won't live long, or you'll die badly?"

Old Liu also waved his fan and said, "Lin Zhao is right. According to ancient books, Tianlang is a general in the wilderness, representing aggression and a greatly ominous star fate."

"Since ancient times, people with the Tianlang mingge have been extremely rare because most people can't withstand this extremely ominous mingge and die young."

"People with the Tianlang life, even if they survive a deadly calamity by chance, will not die a peaceful death."

"The appearance of Tianlang is bound to be accompanied by bloody storms and even devastation for miles. It is precisely because the Tianlang star general kills too many people that they die unnatural deaths."

"There are even rumors that even the heavens do not want people with the Tianlang mingge to appear and will try to stifle them as early as possible. Therefore, there are more records of the Greed Wolf reincarnations in the art of divination, but very few Tianlang."

Old Liu paused here and said, "Old Dongjia's arrangement is actually a gamble."

"Asuras are legendary demonic gods and evil ghosts. Once entangled by an Asura, even if someone with great magical power takes action, they cannot guarantee that they will save your life without harming you."

"Fortunately, your mingge is powerful and matches the Tianlang star soul."

"Old Dongjia attracting Tianlang to eat Asura is indeed the most appropriate method. But..."

Old Liu changed his tone and said, "Once the Tianlang fate soul completely devours the Asura's fierce soul, its ferocity will immediately skyrocket."

"Because Tianlang is your life source, the Tianlang fate soul will not devour your soul, but will completely merge with your mingge."

"At that time, you will be equivalent to the reincarnation of the Tianlang star, and you will become a nemesis who kills countless opponents. But you will also become a god and demon, a fierce star hated by the heavens."

"Your life will inevitably be full of enemies, restless, and you may die at any time."

"I think that's why Old Dongjia wanted to change your fate."

Wang Xiaohuan nodded and said, "What Old Liu said is the same as what my shimu said."

"My shimu said that someone used a ghost mystic art to change your fate a second time, but they failed."

After listening, I couldn't help but sigh and say, "So that's how it is!"

"No wonder my dad always wanted to change my fate, no wonder two mingge appeared when I transformed. And that Asura was still motionless."

"So, he was pinned down by my dad."

"It seems that it's true that my dad brought back the ghost mystic art from the Iron Top Temple, and that ghost coffin should also be in my dad's hands."

I smiled faintly and said, "Forget it, Tianlang life it is then! I never thought of having a good end when I entered jianghu (the martial world). Besides, how many jianghu people can die peacefully?"

"If it's not a good ending, then so be it!"

When I said this, I stopped again: "I'm still wondering, where did my mom go?"
