Corpses littered the surroundings, every one of them dead in a gruesome manner!
The sea around them was especially red, and the air reeked of blood!
At that moment, the violet light in Murong Dieyi's eyes shone intensely, making her look terrifying.
"Third Elder, go in peace!"
She let out a feral laugh and yanked her hand sharply.
A blood-soaked heart suddenly appeared in her palm. She clenched her fist, crushing it into a cloud of blood mist!
Before Murong Dieyi,
an old man with a feeble aura stared at her with shrunken pupils. His mouth hung open, but he couldn't speak.
"Just as I thought... You really do possess the Ancient Demon Bloodline..."
Before he could finish, his body and soul were utterly destroyed!
Only after the old man had died
did the feral grin vanish from Murong Dieyi's face. Her expression turned deathly pale.
"Ha... ha..."
She panted heavily, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
She had really been injured!
How could this be...
Su Changqing had been absolutely right!
He not only knew what she was about to do, he even knew she'd be injured afterward!
Good heavens!!!
At that very moment,
Murong Dieyi's resolve wavered again, and she could hardly believe it.
"Th-then the opportunity he mentioned... the Demon Origin Fruit..."
Her body trembled with excitement. She was genuinely tempted now!
If Su Changqing's words were true, getting the Demon Origin Fruit would bring her an enormous boost!!!
After all, everything he'd said so far had been right!
So now...
After taking a deep breath,
Murong Dieyi recovered from her injuries a little, then headed straight for the location she'd seen in the diary!
"Su Changqing, I hope you're not making this up. If you are, I won't let you off!"
She snorted and picked up the pace!
At the same time, her longing grew ever stronger!
Please let it be true!
After nearly half an hour,
Murong Dieyi arrived at the stretch of sea a hundred li from the sect.
"Th-this is the abandoned ruin left behind after a Demon Emperor fell?"
She looked around and indeed saw the remains of buildings.
But where was the Demon Origin Fruit?
She immediately began searching. A moment later, she stopped!
In the darkness not far ahead,
violet light flickered again and again. As she drew closer, she could feel the dense Demonic Qi!
She finally got a clear look at the object. It was a strange, fist-sized fruit, entirely violet and covered in intricate patterns!
All around it were enormous demonic beasts, corrupted by Demonic Qi!
Seeing this,
"Th-that's the Demon Origin Fruit?!"
Murong Dieyi's mouth went dry. She could no longer stay calm, and had no choice but to believe it!
As she looked at the fruit, an urgent, yearning voice kept ringing in her ears!
That was the opportunity Su Changqing had told her about. If she could obtain it, she would receive an enormous boost!
That guy had been telling the truth!!!

Dao Yi Sacred Sect,
Sacred Son Peak.
After finishing the second diary entry,
Su Changqing stretched, a smile on his face.
"Murong Dieyi will probably be tempted after reading the diary, too, right? All of this was already in the original story. I refuse to believe her trust won't increase!"
He muttered softly, unconcerned that his trust value might fail to rise.
For now, all he had to do was wait.
But before long,
[Ding!] [Congratulations, host! You have completed your second diary entry!] [The three Diary Instance holders' trust values for the second entry are as follows...] [Dao Yi Holy Sect Saintess Ling Qianxue — Trust: !] [Great Yu Dynasty Princess Su Youwei — Trust: !] [Nether Sea Demonic Sect Saintess Murong Dieyi — Trust: !]
When he saw the three heroines' trust values for the diary,
Su Changqing blinked, puzzled. "What's going on here???"
"Why is Ling Qianxue's trust value at one hundred and twenty?"
"Isn't one hundred percent the maximum?"
He looked confused and asked the system.
[The host is right: the trust value is expressed as a percentage. However, one hundred and twenty represents absolute trust. Ling Qianxue's trust value will be capped at one hundred and twenty from now on!]
After hearing the system's explanation,
Su Changqing understood and nodded.
"So... the trust value resets with every diary entry."
He thought it over, but didn't dwell on it.
It wouldn't make much difference to him anyway.
He just needed the diary holders to believe his entries. He was confident he could manage that!
And just then,
``` [Ding!]
[Congratulations, host! All three Diary Instance holders believe your second diary entry. You will receive rewards!]
[Rewards are being issued...]
