Ye Jingyan and his group did indeed bring the most powerful Taoist priest in the country to their door without Youling's knowledge. The Taoist priest secretly observed Youling for a period of time and then looked at her birth chart before calling Ye Jingyan and his group to a secluded place to talk.
Ye Ling had never seen or heard of this scene in the book, so she paid special attention to it.
The Taoist priest had a serious expression and a complicated look in his eyes. When the Ye brothers saw the Taoist priest like this, their expressions also became solemn.
The Taoist priest remained silent for a long time before expressing his discovery in a way that ordinary people could understand: "Her destiny is that of the Vermilion Bird riding the wind, one of the ten most auspicious destinies."
She should have lived a smooth and carefree life. However, her destiny was secretly manipulated, causing her to experience many hardships and misfortunes throughout her life.
She faces three major life-or-death tribulations and countless minor ones in her life. The minor tribulations are negligible, and with you all here, they will not harm her foundation.
At the age of one, she faced her first life-threatening ordeal, which stemmed from her family of origin. After surviving it, she would have a brief opportunity to grow.
The second life-or-death ordeal came from within herself. At the age of 13, her soul was to be swapped by a powerful figure in an attempt to destroy it and prevent her from growing up.
The third life-or-death ordeal came from heaven, descending upon her when she turned 20. The reason why heaven bestowed this calamity upon her is not something that can be revealed.
All you need to know is that the reason she was able to appear before you to face the third life-or-death ordeal is because she endured hardships that ordinary people could not bear.
If she survives the third ordeal, she will single-handedly save many lives and change the destinies of many. But it is precisely for this reason that she faces three life-or-death trials.
She is now facing her second life-or-death ordeal; her soul is no longer in this world. The soul now residing within her is a wandering spirit from a small place, a spirit with a wicked nature, born evil, and full of rebellious tendencies.
All you can do right now is keep this body from being ruined by her. As for her behavior and the trouble she's caused, you'll have to cover for her as much as possible.
The Taoist priest's words stunned not only Ye Ling, but also Ye Jingyan and the others, who were dumbfounded and could not believe what they had heard.
Ye Jingyan quickly regained his senses and asked the elder, "We can only be forced to wait for the original her to return, is that right?"
The Taoist priest nodded: "This is the only way. Of course, it's not absolute, because the tribulation she faces in another place, although not as terrifying as the tribulation of life and death, is enough to ruin her life."
"It depends on her fate. If she doesn't make it over there, your destinies will also be altered because of her. Today I've revealed too many heavenly secrets, which means I won't live much longer either. And you will gradually forget what I've said to you..."
Ye Ling didn't know when the Taoist priest left, because the scene before her eyes changed again. This time, she appeared in the world she lived in, and she was only two years old.
It was at this moment that Ye Ling learned that she was not a child of the Ye family, but was taken home from the roadside.
They took her home to raise her not out of kindness, but because they had heard that raising an unwanted child like her was the only way for them to conceive their own child.
Indeed, a year after she brought her back, her mother became pregnant, and it was a boy.
She was pregnant with a boy, and they considered abandoning her many times, but the old people in town said that if they abandoned her at this time, the baby might not survive. They suggested raising her like an animal, saying that she was just a mouthful of food.
So Ye Ling was kept behind, but her hard times were just beginning.
After her younger brother was born, Ye Ling took over all the housework.
At only four years old, she had to take on household chores: sweeping, washing vegetables, washing clothes, cooking, washing dishes, and taking care of her younger brother...
The Ye family never treated her like a human being; they truly raised her like an animal. When they were in a good mood, they would give her a bite to eat; when they were in a bad mood, they would vent their anger on her, and verbal abuse was a common occurrence.
But Xiao Yeling was too calm and composed. No matter how much she was beaten or scolded, she would not cry. The people in the town said she was a little monster because she never cried or made a fuss no matter how much she was abused. It was truly rare.
Looking at her younger self, Ye Ling longed to hug her.
She no longer remembers these scenes, and finally understands why her parents and brother rejected her and disliked her so much.
