“Devoted?
Devoted my ass!” The women complained incessantly in their hearts, realizing something at the same time.
If Tang Hao were truly devoted and truly loved Ah Yin, he wouldn’t have had that look on his face when he saw Tang San Awakening his Blue Silver Grass Spirit.
“Heh, men really aren’t any good.” Inside the Popes Bedchamber, a cold sneer curled the corner of Bibi Dong’s mouth.
Regardless of how obsessed she appeared to be with Yu Xiaogang, deep down, how could she not know what kind of person Yu Xiaogang really was?
She simply dared not think about it, nor did she want to.
To her, Yu Xiaogang represented more of a longing for the beautiful days before she experienced darkness; he was an obsession, not…
“Another scumbag.” Somewhere on the border of the Empire, Zhu Zhuqing, who had just escaped, also launched a verbal attack on Tang Hao.
She then stood there blankly, a rare look of confusion appearing in her eyes.
“If I simply stop dreaming of being Empress, can I live a peaceful life?”
Su Ye’s words yesterday had truly awakened her.
All along, in her mind, she and Dai Mubai were inextricably linked; to survive, she had to defeat her sister and the others.
She was like a chess piece on a board, unable to escape, forced to survive within the rules.
She had never once considered running away and living in anonymity.
Now, Su Ye’s words had completely opened her eyes.
That’s right!
Who said she had to be a chess piece on the board?
Couldn’t she just jump out and stop playing?
The continent was vast; if she really found some remote corner to hide in, who could possibly find her?
Furthermore, she had a realistic assessment of her own situation.
If the Star Luo Empire couldn’t find her, they would simply assume she was dead rather than go to great lengths to search the entire continent.
As for the consequences?
It seemed there wouldn’t be any.
The Dai family and the Zhu family could be said to complement each other; it wasn’t just the Zhu family that needed to rely on the Dai family—the Dai family also needed the Zhu family’s strength.
At this thought, Zhu Zhuqing’s delicate body suddenly trembled, and she looked toward the Empire with moist eyes.
In a trance, she seemed to see a mature, charming figure.
“Sister, was this your goal all along?”
At that moment, she felt completely enlightened.
The self-righteousness and luck she had clung to in the past seemed ridiculous now; there were no such things as mere coincidences.
Everything had been done deliberately by someone.
At the same moment, upon receiving the news that her younger sister had successfully escaped, Zhu Zhuyun’s pretty face remained calm, but a hint of indescribable complexity surfaced in the depths of her eyes.
“Go, then.
Once you’ve left…
never come back…”
[After learning that Tang San possessed twin spirits, Tang Hao’s attitude changed drastically; not only did he agree to let Tang San go to school, but he also taught him the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method.]
[For some time afterward, he even kept protecting this “good son” from the shadows, and our protagonist, Tang San, would officially begin his life of sin.]
[Upon first arriving at the academy gates, he wanted to kill someone in the street, using his “Way of Death” technique…
Uh, it seems the word count is enough.]
As Su Ye wrote, he suddenly realized that the daily update requirement had been met, so he immediately stopped writing.
[Since today’s update requirement is met, let’s leave it at that.
No more for today.]
[Although there are many more explosive plot points ahead, such as: the arrival of the Master of Fooling!
Famous scenes like Tang San acknowledging his father one moment and wanting to kill him the next…]
[But writing them out won’t do me any good, and the diary won’t give me extra rewards, so I’ll just save them and write them later.]
After finishing his entry, Su Ye put away his diary.
Just then, Dugu Bo returned, bringing all sorts of delicious food and wine.
The two chatted and laughed, and after a hearty meal, they collapsed and fell asleep.
The rewards for the daily update weren’t anything special, so Su Ye didn’t bother waiting for them; fueled by the alcohol, he quickly drifted off to sleep.
However, while Su Ye was comfortable, the women scattered across the continent were filled with resentment.
They felt as if they were being scratched by cats inside, completely unable to sleep.
“Bastard, hurry up and write what happens next!” They desperately wanted to know what kind of bizarre stunts Tang San was going to pull next.
Acknowledging his father on the spot?
And then immediately wanting to kill him afterward?
Holy crap, this plot is even crazier than any novel.
After complaining for a while about Su Ye being short and weak, some immediately opened the Tieba Forum and stayed up late to post.
Before long, dozens of new posts appeared on the Tieba Forum, all with similar content—demanding the continuation.
This included Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong.
Because the “Master of Fooling” Su Ye mentioned reminded them of Yu Xiaogang.
With Yu Xiaogang’s pathetic strength, if he actually ran into that guy Tang San, wouldn’t that be…
Both of them were anxious and posted several times in a row, leaving everyone else stunned.
However, no one thought much of it, simply assuming these two forum users were just particularly enthusiastic about the gossip.
[Rich Little Sugar Mommy: Holy crap, are you two that hooked?]
[Sister Is Strict: Wow, compared to you two, I feel like I’m not even qualified to gossip.]
[Surging Waves: Understandable.
Su Ye is really not acting human; of all places to stop, he had to stop here.]
[…]
Seeing the comments below their posts, Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong ignored them all, continuing to post incessantly, as if doing so could vent the anxiety and unease in their hearts.
Meanwhile, Xiao Wu stared blankly at the bustling Tieba Forum.
Under normal circumstances, she would have joined in the fun, but right now, she wasn’t in the mood.
Tang San, Tang Hao, Yu Xiaogang—with these three names mentioned, even if she were incredibly foolish, she knew that the Tang San she knew was that Tang San.
Honestly, when she first realized this, she almost ran away immediately.
The Tang San in Su Ye’s entries was just too…
off.
His thought process was unfathomable, like a lunatic.
Staying by such a person’s side, Big Sister Xiao Wu felt very insecure, okay?
But before she could take any action, she saw the sentence that followed: “Tang Hao has been secretly protecting Tang San.” At that moment, Xiao Wu felt as if the sky were collapsing.
She dared not move—she absolutely dared not move.
Tang Hao was a ruthless man who had tearfully accepted his own wife’s spirit ring.
Under the nose of such an existence, how could she dare to have any ulterior motives?
As for why the previous six years had been peaceful, she could probably guess.
It was simply that Tang Hao’s spirit rings were already full, and it wasn’t worth it to act just for a single Spirit Bone.
To maximize his benefits, the best course of action was…
Tang San.
Upon arriving at this answer, Xiao Wu’s mood became even more complicated.
However, what she thought didn’t matter, because she had no choice now.
If she honestly followed Tang San like before, she might still survive, but if she dared to make any small moves, then…
she simply dared not imagine the outcome.
That night, for the first time, the usually carefree Xiao Wu suffered from insomnia.
Su Ye, however, was unaware of all this, nor did he care.
After a wonderful night’s sleep, Su Ye first stretched, loosened up his body, and then began to check yesterday’s rewards.
[Ding!
Yesterday’s rewards have been settled!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining:…]
