As the Blue Silver Emperor, the sovereign of all Blue Silver Grass, even though Ah Yin had already taken human form, she still hoped the fate of the soul beasts could be changed. Better yet, that they would never again be hunted by humans.

Ah Yin knew of the Silver Dragon King, the Co-lord of Soul Beasts. She also knew that she was recovering from her injuries in the Star Dou Great Forest and intended to lead the soul beasts in resisting the God Realm's oppression.

She simply had not expected that, aside from the soul beasts themselves, Luo Ye—a human—would also hold such thoughts and attempt to change the fate of soul beasts.

According to Luo Ye's account, he had even figured out how to accomplish it. Unfortunately, he was ultimately defeated by the Asura God and Tang San, leading to the soul beasts being purged.

"Xiao San... Could it really be as he said? Are you not my son, but an evil Outer Realm Heavenly Demon?"

At the thought of that possibility, Ah Yin's heart filled with pain and confusion.

Even though she still did not fully believe Luo Ye's diary, Luo Ye's image in her heart had quietly changed because he had resisted the God Realm for the sake of the soul beasts.

Naturally, this was all intentional on Luo Ye's part. Once he discovered the diary's hidden rules, he and the holders of those instances were no longer on the same level.

Clearly, Ah Yin was not the only one guided by the diary's contents. The one most deeply shaken was the Silver Dragon King, the Co-lord of Soul Beasts.

At the heart of the Star Dou Great Forest lay the Lake of Life.

The enormous Silver Dragon King surfaced from the lake. Her silver scales reflected a dazzling, captivating brilliance beneath the sunlight.

The Silver Dragon King looked indifferently at Di Tian below, her entire body exuding the majesty of a ruler as she said flatly,

"Di Tian, where are the other Fierce Beasts?"

Di Tian did not dare meet the Silver Dragon King's gaze. He lowered his head and replied respectfully,

"Reporting to my lord, an accident occurred just now. That Ice Silkworm suddenly vanished for some reason, and the other Fierce Beasts have gone to search for it."

So it really was like that?

Hearing this answer, the Silver Dragon King's purple slit pupils flickered slightly. Though shocked, she fell into thought.

Seeing that the Silver Dragon King remained silent for a long while, Di Tian hesitated before gathering the courage to ask,

"My lord, did something happen for you to awaken so suddenly? Do you require this subordinate's assistance?"

The Silver Dragon King came back to herself and shook her head slightly.

"It is nothing. My injuries have merely recovered to a certain stage, so I temporarily no longer need to sleep. Very well, I have nothing for you to do at present. Go look for that Ice Silkworm as well."

By the end, the Silver Dragon King's gaze had turned somewhat strange. That Ice Silkworm had already become a soul ring; Di Tian and the other Fierce Beasts were destined to return empty-handed.

Di Tian, unaware of the truth, did not think much of it. After respectfully taking his leave, he departed.

Once he had gone completely far away, the Silver Dragon King murmured,

"It seems what the diary said is very likely true. That human called Luo Ye is the Son of Destiny, and that Ice Silkworm truly has sacrificed itself to him."

"So, just as he said, does the Plane Will of the Douluo Continent also wish to change the plight of soul beasts?"

At this thought, Gu Yuena was delighted. She immediately used her thoughts to turn the pages of the diary in her spiritual sea and examine what came next. Yet when she saw the later entries, her mood instantly plunged into an icy abyss.

"Asura God! You damned bastards, must you truly exterminate the soul beasts?!"

Back then, Gu Yuena had been severely wounded by a single strike from the Asura God. Even now, she had yet to recover.

Had the Diary Instance not suddenly appeared and frantically jumped about in her spiritual sea to awaken her, she would still be asleep.

After figuring out what the Diary Instance was and seeing the tragic future awaiting the soul beasts, Gu Yuena was consumed by rage. She wished she could tear apart the gods of the God Realm with her bare hands right then and there.

That said, Gu Yuena knew her own limits.

Even at her peak, she had been unable to defeat the Asura God King. Let alone that the God Realm had five God Kings like the Asura God.

"So, did the Plane Will know that the soul beasts alone could never resist the God Realm, which was why this Son of Destiny came into being?"

After pondering for a moment, Gu Yuena felt that this was likely the truth.

However...

"Saying that this king has feelings for you is absolute slander! As the Co-lord of Soul Beasts, how could this king possibly fall in love with a human?!"

Gu Yuena scoffed at the notion.

Gu Yuena rather believed the earlier contents and had even developed some approval for Luo Ye, the Son of Destiny who wished to change the soul beasts' circumstances.

But when Luo Ye claimed that she had fallen in love with him, Gu Yuena could not stand it.

"For the sake of your previous life's resistance against the God Realm for the soul beasts, this king will not hold it against you. Otherwise, anyone who dares blaspheme this king will not meet a good end!"

As Gu Yuena grumbled, she opened the points store. When she saw the dazzling array of items within, she froze on the spot.

"Two hundred points can increase one's cultivation by ten thousand years? A Lightning Tribulation Talisman that lets one pass through heavenly tribulation without a scratch? A Nine Revolutions Great Returning Pill that can heal any injury? There are even divine positions?"

Gu Yuena was dumbfounded.

Though she had already realized that this Diary Instance was extraordinary, the diary's power had far exceeded her expectations.

As the Co-lord of Soul Beasts, Gu Yuena did not need to increase her cultivation and would not face heavenly tribulations. But the Nine Revolutions Great Returning Pill and divine positions were different.

The Nine Revolutions Great Returning Pill in particular was what Gu Yuena wanted most at present.

If her injuries could fully heal, she would at minimum be able to wield the strength of a peak first-class god. She might even be able to contend with a God King.

Even if she still could not defeat the God Realm's five God Kings, she would at least possess some ability to protect herself.

Moreover, according to the points store's description, the Divine Position Fragments within could be purchased continuously. So long as she obtained enough Divine Position Fragments, she could even become a God King directly.

"No wonder Luo Ye is so confident. He said that this time, he would definitely shatter the God Realm's scheme. With this diary, as long as he is given enough time, the God Realm is nothing to fear!"

"Not only can he benefit from it—even this king can gain advantages from it."

Gu Yuena's breathing grew a little hurried. She even had the thought of directly making Luo Ye stay in the Star Dou Great Forest. That way, she could ensure she received points every day and purchase the Nine Revolutions Great Returning Pill in the shortest possible time.

But after seriously weighing the matter, Gu Yuena ultimately abandoned the idea.

Having lived another life, Luo Ye clearly knew better than she did how to grow quickly. If her greed caused Luo Ye to fail, then she would become a sinner to the soul beasts—and even to the entire Douluo Continent.
