Five days later, An Lin bade farewell to Dabai with an affectionate expression. "Dabai, I'll be waiting for you outside."
All of the members of the university enforcement team saw An Lin off with tears streaming down their faces. They had had enough of being tortured by that terrifying aroma every single day, and they could only hope that An Lin would abide by the law and never come back here again!
An Lin walked out of the detention cell and was a little disappointed to find that Xu Xiaolan wasn't there to pick him up.
An adorable puppy, ptui! It was Little Wolf.
The snowy white little wolf stuck out its tongue, widened its eyes, and wagged its tail as it waited for An Lin outside with an adorable expression.
"Master, welcome back! Even though the great revolution has yet to succeed, Little Wolf is still willing to follow in your footsteps! "The White-Scaled Wolf God spoke with a fawning expression.
An Lin: "…"
Had this wolf become proficient in flattery recently?
An Lin returned to his dorm room to find an unexpected guest waiting for him there.
"Hey! Classmate An Lin, I knew I would only be able to see you today. " A handsome man with a transcendent aura was waving at An Lin with a smile on his face.
"Master Ming Yuan!" An Lin couldn't help but let loose a cry of surprise upon seeing the man before him. "You've broken through to the Return to Void Stage?"
"Haha, it's all thanks to Classmate An Lin that I was able to progress to the Return to Void Stage." Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan smiled, but there wasn't much excitement on his face. Instead, there was a calm and collected expression on his face.
"I wouldn't dare to take credit for that. It's all thanks to your exceptional aptitude." An Lin waved his hand dismissively.
He then sat down across from Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan and brought out his signature dish for foreign guests — buns ignored by dogs!
"No … This is all thanks to you … On a deeper level, this is all fate!" Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan casually ate a bun, and his body shuddered as an expression of shock appeared on his face. "This bun is fated to be with me …"
An Lin: "… If fate allows it, then eat more!"
Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan didn't hold back and quickly swept the steamer full of buns on the table before getting down to business.
"Before I broke through, I said that I would give you a big gift after I successfully broke through. I, Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan, am not someone who goes back on his word, so please accept this bead. "Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan handed over a white bead.
"This is …" An Lin could not sense any obvious energy fluctuations from the bead. Clearly, it was not a spiritual or immortal artifact. It should be some kind of special item.
"This is an item that combines my Dao of Divination, the Pearl of Fate. As long as you inject your vital energy into this bead, it will be able to synthesize the information of heaven and earth and determine the user's fate for the next ten days, "Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan explained.
An Lin's interest was instantly piqued upon hearing this. This was some f * cking good stuff!
"This pearl can only be used once a day, and it consumes a lot of vital energy. You must be careful when using it!" Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan injected vital energy into the Ming Yuan Pearl.
Immediately afterward, a yellow light appeared on the surface of the Ming Yuan Pearl.
"The color of the Ming Yuan Pearl represents good or bad luck. Yellow represents neither good nor bad luck, green represents good luck, and red represents bad luck. You can give it a try." Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan handed the bead to An Lin as he spoke.
An Lin accepted the bead with a smile. "Red, yellow, and green? It feels like the traffic lights on the road. "
Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan laughed heartily. "You don't say, the color is indeed inspired by the traffic lights of the mortal world!"
An Lin: "…"
An Lin attempted to inject vital energy into the Ming Yuan Pearl, and an extremely powerful suction force suddenly erupted from the bead, sucking away his energy. At the same time, a ripple spread outward before merging into heaven and earth.
The Ming Yuan Pearl lit up. It was purple!
Weren't there only three colors: red, yellow, and green?
An Lin blinked in confusion. "Teacher, what's the meaning of this purple?"
Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan took a deep breath, and a sympathetic expression suddenly appeared on his face as he looked at An Lin. "This is called turning purple from red …"
An Lin: "…"
"I … I'm screwed?" An Lin felt a chill run down his spine.
"It's alright, Student An Lin. Fate is not set in stone. You can change your future!" Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan spoke with a serious expression.
"How do I change it?" An Lin asked in an urgent voice.
Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan paused momentarily before replying, "This is a little complicated, but let me give you an example. Let's say you're going to die tomorrow."
"Can you give me another example?" An Lin's lips twitched.
"Alright, let's say you're going to die the day after tomorrow." Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan nodded.
An Lin: "…"
"Let's say you're going to die because a gargantuan meteor crashed into Xiuxian United University, pulverizing the entire floating continent and killing all of the living beings on it. Regardless of whether you work hard to cultivate, skip classes, or hide at home, or hide in a place that you think is safe in the school, you will still face death! "
"This is the inertial force of the river of fate. When death becomes the mainstream of your fate, then no matter what you do, the tributaries will always draw you back to the destination of death.
"If you want to break free from this mainstream force of fate, you'll have to make an extremely massive change, which will require an extremely large amount of power.
"Let's say you're an extremely conservative person. You're supposed to go to class today, but you suddenly decide to go to the East Sea to play. This is completely out of character for someone like you, An Lin. Thus, this will drastically alter the trajectory of your fate, thereby allowing you to avoid being struck by the meteor.
"Or maybe you're originally at the Soul Formation Stage, but your power suddenly skyrocketed to the Dao Integration Stage, thereby allowing you to ignore the impact of the meteor …
"The more unconventional a change is, the more it can alter the future that you're going to face!"
An Lin understood what Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan was trying to say.
For someone with a fate as red as his, he would probably have to make an extremely massive change in order to avoid this calamity …
"Go, Classmate An Lin! You're the most unpredictable person I've ever met. I'm sure you'll be able to turn this calamity into a blessing! "Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan suddenly grabbed onto An Lin's hand and offered words of encouragement.
An Lin nodded. "Don't worry, Teacher. I'll go to the Moon Palace and lie low for now."
"What … what do you want to do?" Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan stared at An Lin with shock on his face.
"Hehe, Chang 'e is invincible in the Moon Palace. I'll go there and hide for ten days. What calamity could possibly befall me?" An Lin chuckled coldly.
Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan: "…"
Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan fell silent.
There didn't seem to be anything wrong with An Lin's words, but something felt off.
"If that's the case, then take care, Classmate An Lin." Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan stood up and bade farewell.
An Lin stood up and accompanied Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan out the door before returning to his room.
He thought about it for a moment before pulling out his Vermilion Bird Mirror. "Mirror … mirror … can you tell me my fortune …"
"Master, I'm just an erudite mirror, I'm not a fortune-teller," the Vermilion Bird Mirror replied in an extremely disdainful voice.
"Sigh … I heard that Chang 'e will become more powerful in the Moon Palace. Can you tell me how powerful Chang' e is in the Moon Palace?" An Lin continued.
"She's on the moon, and with the power of the true moon, she won't have to fear Dao Integration Stage mighty figures," the Vermilion Bird Mirror replied.
An Lin nodded with a pleased expression. "Sigh, I haven't seen Big Sister Chang 'e and Little Sister Yue Tu for a long time. It's about time I pay them a visit!"
Vermilion Bird Mirror: "…"
