Dai Mubai changed his strategy.
He no longer thought about hating Tang San. Instead, he wanted to win him over to his side. He arranged for Tang San and Oscar to share a dorm room while giving Luo Ye a room to himself, using this method to isolate him.
In Dai Mubai's view, as long as he could gain the support of most people and ensure that no one would side with Luo Ye when he clashed with him in the future, reclaiming Zhu Zhuqing would become far easier.
Not only did Luo Ye have no objections to this, he was actually delighted by it.
Isolate him?
The more Dai Mubai did this, the easier it would be for him to fabricate content in the diary that benefited himself and win the approval of Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong.
Although he had said it several times already, Luo Ye still wanted to repeat it once more.
Dai Mubai, you really were such a great guy!
Originally, the girls' dormitories were also shared by two people per room. However, under Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong's strong insistence, the three of them ultimately ended up living together.
Neither Dai Mubai nor Tang San gave it much thought, assuming they simply wanted to stick together and have some fun.
However, after everyone else had left and only the three of them remained in the dormitory, Zhu Zhuqing walked up to the other two and spoke in a low voice.
"You two should also have Diary Instances, right?"
The moment she said this, Zhu Zhuqing already had her answer.
This time, when she mentioned the diary, she felt no abnormality whatsoever.
Clearly, only in front of other Diary Instance holders could she speak of the diary's existence without any obstruction.
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong looked at each other, then nodded at the same time.
"That's right."
Zhu Zhuqing let out a faint sigh of relief. The tension gradually left her cool, aloof face, and she smiled.
"Since that's the case, everything else will be easier to discuss. I want to ask, what do you think of what Luo Ye wrote in the diary?"
Zhu Zhuqing now trusted Luo Ye completely, but she also wanted to know how Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong saw things. After all, this concerned Luo Ye's next move.
Luo Ye had said that he wanted her help persuading Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong to leave, so naturally, she would not stand by and do nothing.
Faced with Zhu Zhuqing's question, Xiao Wu fell silent.
Ning Rongrong glanced at her and said with a smile, "If it weren't to avoid exposing the diary's existence, I wouldn't have continued coming to Shrek Academy after seeing that content."
"As far as I'm concerned, whether what Luo Ye said is true or not, I don't want to stay at Shrek Academy and take that kind of risk. I can leave with you whenever."
Ning Rongrong did not want the future described in the diary to become reality.
In truth, she had already considered not coming to Shrek Academy yesterday. She had only forced herself to come because she was worried that acting differently might alert Luo Ye and expose the diary's existence.
Whether Luo Ye truly was a Reincarnator, or whether Tang San was really the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon Luo Ye claimed him to be, Ning Rongrong no longer wanted anything to do with Tang San.
Even if Luo Ye invited her to leave with him right now, Ning Rongrong would agree without the slightest hesitation.
After all, as the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, even if she missed the enrollment period, she could still enter Heaven Dou Royal Academy based on her status. She had no need to worry about having nowhere to go.
Zhu Zhuqing could not help smiling brightly at those words. She was exceedingly satisfied with Ning Rongrong's answer.
The two of them looked at Xiao Wu at the same time and asked, "What about you? What do you think?"
Xiao Wu pressed her lips together. Her small face was filled with conflict and distress. After a long silence, she spoke softly.
"I don't know either. I still can't believe that Third Brother is the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon he spoke of. Third Brother has always treated me very well. He's taken care of me all these years."
"And now you're suddenly saying he's an Outer Realm Heavenly Demon, saying that he'll do those things in the future. How am I supposed to believe that?"
At those words, Zhu Zhuqing's delicate brows furrowed slightly, while the smile vanished from Ning Rongrong's face.
Though they had been mentally prepared for this, hearing Xiao Wu's answer with their own ears still left them somewhat disappointed.
Just as Luo Ye had written in the diary, after all these years together, Tang San's image had already become firmly established in Xiao Wu's heart. Shattering it would not be so easy.
Ning Rongrong said with some frustration, "Do you see anything Luo Ye has said in the diary so far that's wrong? Just like how you're a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that took human form, haven't you wondered why Luo Ye knows something like that? He shouldn't have even met you before, right?"
"And what happened yesterday at the Rose Hotel—if Luo Ye weren't a Reincarnator, if he hadn't learned more detailed information about the future through the diary, how could he have known that you, Tang San, and Dai Mubai would all appear there?"
"If it had only happened once, perhaps it could have been a coincidence. But with all these things piling up one after another, doesn't that prove Luo Ye's identity as a Reincarnator?"
Ning Rongrong paused there before raising her voice for emphasis.
"Most importantly, Luo Ye couldn't possibly know that we have Diary Instances and can see what's written in them. He even dared to say in the diary that Pope Bibi Dong has a brain that doesn't work properly. Could he really have fabricated all this just to deceive someone?"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Ning Rongrong as though she had seen something miraculous.
She knew herself very well and understood that she was terrible at persuading others. She had originally been worried about how to convince Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu.
Yet unexpectedly, she did not need to step in at all. Ning Rongrong had already begun unleashing a torrent of arguments, and everything she said aligned perfectly with Zhu Zhuqing's own thoughts.
To prove that she was not just standing around doing nothing, Zhu Zhuqing hurriedly added, "I can vouch for Luo Ye. Everything he wrote in the diary about me is true."
Xiao Wu also felt that Ning Rongrong's words made sense.
Since Luo Ye did not know that others possessed Diary Instances and could see the contents, there was no point in him fabricating lies in the diary.
Therefore, everything they saw in the diary had to be what Luo Ye truly thought. There could be nothing false mixed into it.
Even so, Xiao Wu still found it difficult to accept that Tang San was the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon, and that he would use schemes in the future to manipulate her into sacrificing herself before killing Da Ming Er Ming.
Xiao Wu covered her head with both hands in anguish and said softly, "I don't know what I should do either. I don't know who I should believe."
Seeing this, Ning Rongrong wanted to say more, but Zhu Zhuqing stopped her.
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head slightly at Ning Rongrong, then looked at Xiao Wu and comforted her.
"It's all right. You don't have to make a decision so quickly. You can observe for a while before deciding what to do."
"I believe that before long, Luo Ye will give you the answer to this question."
As for the protagonist's second martial soul, I currently have three ideas.
One is the Ice Fire Dragon King, one is the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, and the other is the Blue Silver Emperor.
However, the Blue Silver Emperor really is not that strong, so it most likely will not be chosen.
If you have any thoughts or suggestions, feel free to share them.
