Yue Xiaoqian's grandmother

She passed away after peering into Long Chen's future.

An ancient voice rang out.
"Xiaoqian, don't grieve. The two of you will forever be together. No one will be able to separate you."
"Greetings great prophet, greetings race leader!" The original devil race's experts all knelt. From the distance, Yue Xihan slowly walked over while supporting an old woman.
The old woman looked like she already had one foot in the grave. Her face was covered in wrinkles. She looked like the slightest breeze would knock her over. She had no aura at all, like she was someone who hadn't cultivated.
However, Long Chen was shocked to see how bright her eyes were. They were clearly intelligent. It was like her eyes could see through all the mysteries of heaven and earth, as if they could see through the past and future. Her eyes were like a mirror that reflected the world.
"Greetings great prophet." Seeing that this woman was being personally escorted by Yue Xihan, Long Chen could tell that this woman's position was probably even greater than Yue Xihan's in the original devil race.
Yue Xiaoqian hastily went over to support the old woman. Unexpectedly, this prophet was actually Yue Xiaoqian's grandmother, Yue Xihan's mother.
The old woman's withered hand gently caressed Yue Xiaoqian's cheek, wiping away her tears. "I thought that you had forgotten your grandma after seeing your boyfriend."
"Your grandma was also young back in the day. What is there to be embarrassed about? Look, Long Chen's completely at ease." The old woman smiled kindly.
"You overpraise me. This little one's skin was built up over thousands of trials. It's thick enough to not be embarrassed." Long Chen hastily went up. This was his future grandmother-in-law. To obtain her granddaughter, he had to obtain her approval.
"Not feeling embarrassed is a good thing. People who don't get embarrassed aren't so fake. They say what they want to say, do what they want to do. Good child, come here and let grandma touch your face. I want to see the face of my granddaughter's future husband." The old woman reached out her two withered hands and gently touched Long Chen's face.
When her hands touched Long Chen's face, they transformed, becoming plump like a young maiden's hands. At the same time, glowing lines appeared on her palms.
== Prophecy: future children ==
The original devil race's prophet gently touched Long Chen's face with her hands. Long Chen immediately felt his soul shake, and the Divine Gate Star activated on its own, instinctively resisting.
Long Chen hastily stopped the Divine Gate Star. However, huge waves rose in his heart. It was just that he didn't say anything.
"Good child, you're very handsome. Your future children with Xiaoqian, whether they're boys or girls, will definitely be very cute." The original devil race's prophet pulled back her hands. When they left Long Chen's face, they returned to their normal, withered state.
The only difference was that the prophet was smiling brightly now. "Child, don't let a romantic relationship stop you from doing what you need to do. Sometimes, a good result needs a bitter process. However, as long as you can get that result, all that bitterness will be worth it. The bitterness will become your most perfect memories. However, if your hesitation over the process affects the result, if it causes you to fail, it will only bring you endless regret. All your efforts are for that goal. If you don't achieve it, then everything fades away. When you reach the end, you will only find emptiness."
== Story ==
"Child, which person doesn't die? Death is another form of life. You need to learn this point from your mother. After giving up my position as the leader of the race, I sacrificed my cultivation base, transforming it into prophetic power so I could see further, see clearer. Although it was a sacrifice, it was worth it. Last time, I managed to see that Long Chen would be in trouble and I sent you just as a test. However, you really did manage to help him at a critical moment. At that time, I knew that no matter how strong I was, I would never be able to read the fate of a nine star heir. The fact that my prediction actually ended up true means that Long Chen's fate is deeply intertwined with the fate of the original devil race. So how could I give up this chance?" The prophet smiled, but then she immediately began to cough fiercely again.
After a moment, the prophet continued, "I'm very gratified. Let me tell you a piece of good news. Our original devil race has not been wiped out. I saw many more branches living in different star-fields."
Yue Xiaoqian and Yue Xihan were both delighted. They had always thought that after the Motherstar had collapsed, the others had all died, leaving behind only their one branch of the original devil race. This news was the best news they could have gotten.
"Did you see which star-fields they're in? Can we communicate with them? Can we restore the original devil race's glory?" asked Yue Xihan, her voice trembling with emotion.
The prophet shook her head. "The cultivation technique of an heir of the nine stars is too domineering. Although I only tried to see information relating to our race, I still received a backlash. If Long Chen hadn't suppressed it, I wouldn't have been able to see anything at all. Xiaoqian, hurry and tell the others this news. Let everyone be happy as well."
=== Long Chen's future ===
The prophet's smile vanished, replaced by complete seriousness. She slowly said, "I wasn't able to hold back. In the end, I still glanced at Long Chen's future."
Yue Xihan let out a startled cry. She looked at her mother closely and couldn't help but cry. The divine seal on her mother's forehead had completely faded. That meant her life force had run out.
"I just praised you for understanding the Dao of Life and Death. I said that Xiaoqian should follow your example, and you act like this," sighed the prophet. She continued, "Long Chen is different from the nine star heirs from the legends. He lacks a kind of true domineeringness. It's a very strange scenario. No one in this world can train in this cultivation technique and still control themselves, but he has done it. In all the historical records, nine star heirs are solitary figures who fight against heaven and earth. They never form companionships. However, Long Chen is completely different. That's why I couldn't hold back from taking a peek at his future. Unfortunately, I saw something that I shouldn't have."
"What did you see?"
"Death, darkness, endless death and endless darkness. All life was extinguished. Within that endless darkness and death, I couldn't see the slightest glimmer of hope."
"Are you saying that Long Chen's fate is to die?!"
"I don't know. My ability is limited. I could only see this much."
The prophet suddenly touched Yue Xihan's cheek. A faint glow appeared on her face.
"Don't wear yourself out. You only have to do your best. We are just a speck of dust within this cosmos, and we follow the waves. If a star's destiny reaches an end, we can only be destroyed along with it. You wouldn't be able to do anything about it regardless, so don't feel so bad. Just as I said, death is not an end, but another kind of... life."
"Mom..."
The prophet closed her eyes and silently collapsed into Yue Xihan's embrace, still having a faint smile on her face. The old leader of the original devil race passed away just like that.
