Bibi Dong, The Scapegoat, and the New Rule Q&A Function

Star Dou Great Forest.

Deep within the Lake of Life.

A silver dragon lay sprawled at the bottom of the lake, her body towering like a mountain range, undulating and vast even in stillness.

Before the silver dragon hovered a nearly invisible black diary. Her enormous dragon eyes fixed on it, filled with confusion.

After obtaining this Diary Copy, she had been pulled into some strange Chat Group.

At first, she thought the God Kings of the Divine Realm had discovered her, nearly scaring her to tears.

But upon carefully sensing the ancient aura of the black diary, she realized it was mysterious and powerful.

As the other half of the former Dragon God, the Silver Dragon King considered herself knowledgeable. This mysterious diary was definitely not from the Divine Realm.

"How incredible. This Diary Copy is so powerful. Perhaps I have hope of recovering from my injuries and storming the Divine Realm to take revenge on those detestable gods."

After silently Peeking for two minutes and reading the rules of the Diary Copy and Chat Group, the Silver Dragon King's heart gradually filled with hope.

For a Divine Beast like her, who slept for hundreds or thousands of years at a time, the benefits of the Diary Copy and Chat Group rules were simply too good.

Every day, with just a blink, she could claim rewards from the Diary Copy. How satisfying.

[Cat Yearning for Freedom: I Sleep Every Day, why aren't you speaking? Are you asleep?]

[Cat Yearning for Freedom: Don't be afraid. We're all good people. This Diary Copy is our Fortuitous Encounter.]

[Yanzi Will Return: That's right. Come out and say hello. The other two members have already spoken. You're the only one who hasn't.]

[I Sleep Every Day: Hello, everyone.]

[I Sleep Every Day: My name is Gu Yuena. I was just reading the rules of the Diary Copy and Chat Group.]

[I Sleep Every Day: Oh, and Cat Yearning for Freedom, I Am a Grass, are you two Soul Beasts?]

Lake of Life.

Looking at the nicknames of Zhu Zhuqing and Ah Yin, Gu Yuena couldn't help but ask.

If there were other Soul Beasts in the Chat Group, that would be even better. At least they could share common goals and topics.

Gu Yuena wasn't particularly fond of humans, but she didn't hate them either.

After all, the current era wasn't like twenty thousand years later, so Gu Yuena had no strong aversion to humanity.

[Cat Yearning for Freedom: I'm not a Soul Beast. I chose this nickname because my Martial Soul is a cat, not because I am one.]

[Cat Yearning for Freedom: By the way, there shouldn't be any Soul Beasts in our Chat Group, right?]

[I Am a Grass: ???]

[I Am a Grass: I am a Soul Beast. My true form is a Blue Silver Grass.]

[Yanzi Will Return: Wait, there really is a Soul Beast?]

[Cold Eating Melon Girl: Are you a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast? How do you have independent thought? That's amazing.]

[I Don't Have the Surname Yu: I never expected our Chat Group to have a Soul Beast. How rare.]

[I Am Little Princess: I Am a Grass, are you really a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast? Your intelligence seems high—at least tens of thousands of years old.]

Seeing that Ah Yin was a Soul Beast, The Women began asking questions, full of curiosity about the new member.

They hadn't expected the Chat Group to pull in a Soul Beast. Did that mean it might even bring in legendary gods in the future?

[I Am a Grass: My true form was once a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, the Blue Silver Emperor. But after sacrificing myself, I only have a few years of cultivation left.]

[I Am a Grass: I don't know if I'll ever have the chance to regain my Hundred-Thousand-Year cultivation.]

Holy Soul Village.

Looking at her fragile body, Ah Yin felt restless and somewhat resentful toward Tang Hao.

If he had sent her back to the Blue Silver Forest, she would at least have several hundred years of cultivation by now.

After all, the Blue Silver Forest was her territory. There, relying on her Subjects, Ah Yin could recover her injuries quickly.

[Love Eating Carrots: I Am a Grass, why did you sacrifice yourself? Were you forced by humans?]

Notting Academy.

Seeing that Ah Yin was also a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, Xiao Wu felt delighted. It meant she had a kindred spirit in the Chat Group.

"Hmm? Wait. She's a grass, and I'm a rabbit. Aren't we natural enemies?"

Thinking it over, Xiao Wu suddenly realized the awkward truth. What was she supposed to do if her Group Member was her food source?

[I Am a Grass: No. I was being hunted by the Martial Soul Hall, so I sacrificed myself for my beloved.]

[I Am Little Princess: ???]

[I Am Little Princess: Let me get this straight. You're a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, and your beloved is a human? That's... bizarre.]

[Yanzi Will Return: Also, Martial Soul Hall, Bibi Dong—was this your doing?]

[Martial Soul Hall Pope: You all... such stereotypes!]

[Martial Soul Hall Pope: Why do you pin everything on me? Am I your scapegoat?]

[Martial Soul Hall Pope: This is clearly something the previous pope, Qian Xunji, did. I've only been in office for a few years, alright.]

[Martial Soul Hall Pope: Besides, I don't see anything wrong with it. Soul masters hunting soul beasts is only natural, let alone a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast—this is the dream of every soul master.]

[I Have No Mother: Right, Bibi Dong, this is the most I've ever supported you. Ask yourselves, don't you all want a 100,000 Year Soul Ring or a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone?]

Heaven Dou City.

Seeing Bibi Dong's words, Qian Renxue's eyes carried a hint of satisfaction.

"That foolish woman Bibi Dong, actually clear-headed for once."

As for Ah Yin, Qian Renxue neither hated nor liked her much.

In her memory, her father Qian Xunji had been beaten to death by Ah Yin's lover, Tang Hao.

Thus, Qian Renxue harbored deep hatred for Tang Hao.

But toward Ah Yin, the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, she felt little resentment—after all, it was the Martial Soul Hall that had initiated the hunt.

[Love Eating Carrots: But do soul beasts deserve to die? Should a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast be even more deserving of being hunted for its soul ring and soul bone?]

Notting Academy.

Even Xiao Wu, a soul beast who usually giggled all day, now grew somber.

They, as soul beasts, did nothing wrong yet faced the risk of being hunted. Why was heaven so unfair?

Hearing Xiao Wu's words, the chat group fell into silence.

Among them were humans and soul beasts. Xiao Wu's question had no true answer.

[Ding, detected a major disagreement in the chat group. A new rule is hereby established: the Questioning feature.]

[Chat group members can jointly select a Diary Theme, and the Diary Owner, Lin Chen, will complete the diary content. It may resolve your doubts.]
