"My calculations are not always accurate." The Godfiend looked at Shen Ying as a flash of something darted through his eyes. "Whatever happened afterwards was outside of my calculations. That was why I chose Hui Ling. She was just a puppet, formed from nothing with Zi Chen's demonic Qi. She accidentally entered the River of Forgetfulness and obtained a soul. She was never a part of the Three Realms. Hence, I granted her wish when she asked me for strength."
So on the day of the Great Competition, the white light that appeared in Hui Ling's jade pendant, and the aura that was following Shen Ying around, was really the Godfiend.
But did Hui Ling already know of her identity from the very beginning?
It was no wonder that she had always picked on Shen Ying. If she really was formed from Zi Chen's demonic Qi, she would not be able to fight against the power of the Godfiend.
