After reading these records, Su Li was stunned for a moment, his expression becoming more solemn.

"Master Su, if you have something to say, just say it."

Seemingly noticing the change in Su Li's expression, Hua Ziyan couldn't help but let out a light laugh, saying indifferently.

Su Li pondered slightly and said, "I know what you're thinking—'This person is going to talk about a calamity befalling me, and then he can solve it, thereby achieving some unspeakable goal'."

Hua Ziyan couldn't help but smile wryly upon hearing this, "That's true, but isn't that what Master Su is thinking?"

Su Li said, "That's what I'm thinking, but I still have to say this—after you leave, you will encounter a calamity in the southern region of Wuyue City.

This calamity stems from the karma of a prolonged hatred, so it should be a planned ambush.

According to your Destiny, the participants will not be normal Cultivators, but beings similar to walking corpses—such beings should be 'Puppet Death Warriors'.

Fairy Mu Yuxi will be entangled in such a vortex of fate and perish in the calamity.

And you...

This time, my deduction consumed a large amount of my vital energy and spirit, so the information regarding your situation is more comprehensive.

Your Destiny shows significant fluctuations, with a sharp downward trend, indicating that you will experience a great calamity.

This great calamity will be life-threatening.

But the changes in your Destiny fluctuations indicate that you will fight back with all your might—at your current realm, it should be a failed attempt to ascend to Nascent Soul, drawing upon heavenly tribulations to kill enemies, but it will inevitably end in failure.

Thus, your Destiny will be completely cut off."

Su Li had also been paying attention to the information on the Life Archive System, so he could see that even after Hua Ziyan had calmed down, she still harbored doubts before he said these words.

However, as this information was revealed, Hua Ziyan could no longer remain calm.

Her expression was extremely solemn.

Initially, she was very skeptical and had never truly taken Su Li seriously.

But now, even if there was only a one-in-ten-thousand chance that what Su Li said was true, she couldn't afford to be careless.

What's more, if the series of situations Su Li mentioned were to actually happen, they would be her inevitable choices!

Beside Hua Ziyan, Mu Yuxi held her breath, her face very pale, and her eyes showed disbelief.

"Puppet Death Warriors? Isn't that an evil technique that has been lost in Yinshang Cave Heaven? How dare they?!"

"They actually dare to raise Puppet Death Warriors? That's a method for cultivating Demonic Souls!"

Mu Yuxi exclaimed, her beautiful eyes filled with both disbelief and anger.

Su Li glanced at Mu Yuxi—as expected, a prodigy girl of seventeen had not yet experienced the harshness of society and was ultimately too naive.

As long as there were huge benefits, what wouldn't they dare to do?

"Master Su, I have a senior brother who has been extremely good to me since childhood. My father's intention is that if the destined calamity cannot be broken, I should conceive a descendant with him. What does Master Su think about this matter? And what do you think of my senior brother's character?"

Hua Ziyan pondered for a long time, then suddenly asked again.

This question seemed to have no connection to the previous life-or-death matter.

But Su Li saw from her Life Archive that she was making a compromise choice regarding her fate—if she couldn't avoid the destined calamity, she would leave a bloodline inheritance for the Hua Clan, even though the possibility of such an inheritance was extremely slim.

"Your senior brother is indeed very good to you, but your Destinies have no intersection points, and even if you are willing, you won't end up together. However, if Fairy simply wishes to conceive offspring, then finding a Heavenly Secrets master with great potential would be quite suitable."

Su Li looked at the charming and beautiful girl before him and couldn't help but make a joke—it's not a big deal, why so serious? This Master will help you.

Hua Ziyan seriously examined Su Li, blushed slightly, and sighed, "Since Master Su knows that Ziyan's talent is Purple Qi Three Thousand, you should know that Ziyan possesses the Chaos Physique. This kind of physique is self-contained and perfect. At Master Su's current realm, even if I were willing, Master Su would likely be consumed... by the backlash of Yin Yang Dao Union and die in a short period of time.

This destined calamity of mine is almost unsolvable. While I don't care much about it, are you willing to take this risk, Master Su?"

As Hua Ziyan spoke, she blushed and mustered the courage to take a step towards Su Li.

Su Li's expression froze, and at the same time, he smelled a faint, fresh, and elegant fragrance. His heart inexplicably began to race.

"Ahem... Let's talk about your destined calamity problem."

Su Li had a good impression of Hua Ziyan, but he still followed his heart's choice.

He felt that it was more important to deal with the main issue. The Saintess was about to die, and it wouldn't be gentlemanly to tease her.

Su Li took a deep breath, looked at Hua Ziyan's Life Archive again, and found the information about Hua Ziyan at this moment.

[A physique like mine is ultimately unbearable for ordinary people. Although Master Su has some abilities and is handsome and extraordinary, his talent and physique seem too poor. I hope, as he said, that he is hiding his strength through special means and showing me his ordinary side...]

[Senior Brother Yun Qinghong is barely acceptable. He possesses the Flame Thunder Totem talent and has the innate Flame Thunder Spirit Body physique...]

[But I don't like him. But at my current stage, can I still talk about my own desires?]

[These seventeen years have cost my father a lot of effort. I can't just leave so heartlessly, making my father sad, and letting the sacred bloodline of the entire Hua Clan be lost...]

Upon seeing the name Yun Qinghong, Su Li immediately locked onto the name with his consciousness and opened that person's Life Archive.

This was the 'evolution' function of the Life Archive. If another person appeared in someone's Life Archive, they could also be viewed, but only their past records could be accessed.

It was equivalent to a partially disabled function.

If he went a step further and viewed the records of people related to Yun Qinghong through Yun Qinghong's archive, the amount of information would be further reduced.

Su Li had spent several days figuring out this function.

At this moment, Yun Qinghong's information was presented in great detail.

[Yun Qinghong: Male, 25 years old. Cultivation: Late stage of Golden Core Realm eighth level. Talent: Flame Thunder Totem (Spirit Grade 8-star), Mysterious Qi Movement (Mysterious Grade 3-star -- continuously declining). Physique: Flame Thunder Spirit Body (Spirit Grade 9-star). Destiny: Imminent demise. Current Mindset: Must break through to the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm as soon as possible, then head to the Boundary Water Wasteland to obtain the diagram for the Boundary Water Spirit Array. With the diagram for the Boundary Water Spirit Array, Junior Sister Li will have a greater chance of success when facing her ninth level Pill Tribulation... Past Experiences: ...]

After reading it, Su Li had made up his mind.

He then spoke confidently, "Your senior brother, Yun Qinghong, possesses the Spirit Grade 8-star Flame Thunder Totem talent and the special Mysterious Qi Movement talent. Unfortunately, this talent is continuously decreasing due to the influence of your Destiny tribulation. His physique is the Spirit Grade 9-star Flame Thunder Spirit Body. It's a pity that such a person is truly not a good match for you, because he is also on the verge of death.

As for the details of his demise, it's difficult to determine. I would only be able to make a specific judgment after seeing his face and then activating my Eye of Heavenly Secrets to perform the Heavenly Secrets Qi Observation Technique on him.

Furthermore, he will be heading to the Boundary Water Wasteland in the next few days, intending to obtain the diagram for the Boundary Water Spirit Array to increase your chances of success during your ninth level Pill Tribulation. Whether this is true or not, you'll know with a single question."

Su Li's words revealed many secrets.

Upon hearing this, Hua Ziyan could no longer remain calm.

"Master Su, please wait a moment."

Hua Ziyan immediately took out a Communication Jade Talisman and sent a message.

Then, she simply inquired about Yun Qinghong's situation.

A hundred breaths later, Hua Ziyan looked at Su Li with a pale face filled with shock and bowed deeply to him.

"Master Su, Ziyan is completely convinced! Ziyan also sincerely apologizes to Master Su for previously doubting your abilities! Master Su, please help me."
