Now that he had arrived on the Douluo Continent and could use the diary to connect with those beauties from the original story, there was no way Luo Ye would let this opportunity slip away.

No more pretending—Luo Ye admitted that he was a total pervert. There, he had said it!

Oh, no, let him correct that. He was not old.

As for how he would fabricate the diary's contents, make those who possessed Diary Instances believe him, and draw closer to them?

As a former playboy who had roamed among women in his past life and possessed abundant experience, Luo Ye simply said, "Just watch how I wrap these love-struck fools of the Douluo Continent around my finger!"

According to the system's description, the more important a woman was in the original story, the greater her chances of obtaining a Diary Instance.

In that case, Zhu Zhuqing, as a member of the protagonist's group, was probably one of the Diary Instance holders, wasn't she?

Sensing Luo Ye's gaze, Zhu Zhuqing blinked and asked.

"What is it, Luo Ye?"

Luo Ye did not answer immediately. Instead, he gazed at Zhu Zhuqing with incomparable tenderness, his eyes brimming with affection.

Only after making Zhu Zhuqing thoroughly uncomfortable did Luo Ye seem to suddenly snap out of it and hurriedly change the subject.

"It's nothing. Since I've already obtained my third spirit ring, let's leave the Star Dou Great Forest. Otherwise, we might be too late for Shrek Academy's admissions."

Putting on an affectionate act was merely a basic skill for a playboy.

Next, he needed to fabricate a story and subtly influence their emotions—as well as the image they held of him.

Unaware of the truth, Zhu Zhuqing secretly observed Luo Ye as they walked. Ever since earlier, she had felt that something was off about him. Especially the way he had looked at her just now—it left Zhu Zhuqing at a loss. Yet she could not ask him directly. What if she was merely being full of herself? That would be far too embarrassing.

Just as Zhu Zhuqing was caught in a dilemma, she suddenly discovered a diary appearing in her mind. Several large words were clearly written across its cover.

Luo Ye's Diary (Zhu Zhuqing's Exclusive Instance)

"Luo Ye's diary? Why is my name on it? And why did it appear in my mind?"

Zhu Zhuqing froze for a moment, deeply puzzled by this sudden development. Just as she was about to ask about it, the diary suddenly opened, revealing all of its contents.

I am Luo Ye. I have been reborn.

I was reborn to a time when none of the tragedies had happened yet, when the Douluo Continent had not fallen and the soul beasts had not yet been slaughtered and enslaved.

As the Son of Destiny chosen by the Plane Will of the Douluo Continent, I betrayed Its trust in my previous life. I failed to salvage the situation and ultimately lost by one move to the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon.

Fortunately, I was reborn and given another chance. This time, I will definitely shatter the God Realm's conspiracy and kill that Outer Realm Heavenly Demon named Tang San!

I am confident, because aside from the foresight granted by my rebirth, I also obtained this mysterious diary. As long as I write in it every day, I can receive all kinds of rewards, allowing me to grow faster than I did in my previous life.

Just as in my previous life, I encountered Zhu Zhuqing again and received the sacrifice of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in the Star Dou Great Forest, obtaining a Million-Year Third Spirit Ring.

A Million-Year Third Spirit Ring?!

Seeing what was written in the diary, Zhu Zhuqing's pupils abruptly constricted, her pretty face filled with disbelief.

As the daughter of the Zhu Clan's head, Zhu Zhuqing had seen many powerful experts and heard of countless legends.

But in her understanding, Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts were already the strongest among soul beasts. She had never even heard of a million-year soul beast.

What was going on?

Was what the diary said true?

Had Luo Ye really been reborn?

Zhu Zhuqing's heart felt as though it were being scratched by a kitten. Desperate to learn the truth, she hesitated again and again before finally failing to restrain herself and blurting out.

"Luo Ye, your—"

Zhu Zhuqing's words came to an abrupt halt before she could finish.

It was not that she no longer wanted to ask. Rather, she suddenly felt as if an invisible giant hand had gripped her heart. A suffocating sensation surged through her, leaving Zhu Zhuqing unable to breathe.

It made her clearly realize that if she continued speaking, that force would crush her heart and kill her instantly.

What is going on? Why is this happening?

Zhu Zhuqing clutched her chest as beads of cold sweat formed on her smooth, fair forehead.

Luo Ye knew why Zhu Zhuqing was reacting this way, but he still feigned ignorance. Supporting her arm in alarm, he asked with a concerned expression.

"What's wrong, Zhu Qing?"

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head. Once she abandoned the thought of asking Luo Ye about the diary, that mysterious force truly vanished, along with the suffocating sensation.

"Don't worry. I'm fine. Let's keep going."

After setting off again, Zhu Zhuqing checked the diary in her mind once more. The rules displayed within it made her completely understand why that had happened just now.

The rules of the Diary Instance were as follows.

1: Each day, any Instance holder whose name is mentioned in the diary will receive point rewards. (Points can be used to purchase items in the shop.) 2: An Instance holder who continuously reads the diary's contents for one month will receive a random reward. (Rewards include, but are not limited to, Soul Power, Spirit Bones, spirit rings, and so on.) 3: Instance holders must not reveal the diary's existence to outsiders or harm the diary's owner. Otherwise, their Diary Instance will be revoked, and they will be erased. 4: Instance holders must not harm one another or seize each other's rewards. Otherwise, they will bear the consequences. Note: More functions will be unlocked in the future. Please wait patiently.

I can't reveal the diary's existence to anyone else? Does that include Luo Ye, the diary's owner?

Zhu Zhuqing looked thoughtful as she discreetly glanced at Luo Ye, then continued reading the contents below.

Although I went to Shrek Academy with Zhu Qing in my previous life, I felt that my ideals did not align with those people's, so I chose to leave and joined Spirit Hall. I was even accepted as a disciple by Pope Bibi Dong.

It was precisely because of that that, by the next time I saw Zhu Qing, she had already been deceived by Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others' disguises and become their companion. I had to go through tremendous hardship before helping Zhu Qing see their true faces and leave Shrek Academy.

This time, I absolutely cannot repeat the same mistake. I need to remain at Shrek Academy and let Zhu Qing see those people's true colors in advance. I can also try to take Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu away with us.

After all, the two of them were Zhu Qing's best friends. Unfortunately, they were both killed by Tang San later on, and even their families and friends were not spared. Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo died tragic deaths, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was destroyed, the Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape were killed because Tang San needed spirit rings and Spirit Bones, and even Xiao Wu was forced to sacrifice herself to him because of Tang San's schemes.
