The New Chapter of the Forbidden Zone's Creation, The Self-Destruction of the Demon King

Heavenly Emperor's Family Courtyard Dormitory.

"What the hell? Huoyao just raised her soul power by one level, and even got a second martial soul, but the points I got were only half of hers? This daily record is way too unfair to me!"

Duoxu covered her head, her hair disheveled, looking utterly dejected.

The main reason for her intense reaction was actually just morning crankiness.

She had been sleeping perfectly fine, but then the daily record in her mind started going wild, directly ruining her beauty sleep—anyone would have a hard time dealing with that.

Yueyan beside her, however, didn't have as strong a reaction as she did, merely shaking her head slightly.

"It's normal for it to be unfair. Huoyao is the rightful owner of the daily record; what we possess is merely a copy of it."

"Even so, this is already a rare and incredible stroke of luck. Don't forget all those treasures in the points shop that are enough to shake the entire continent."

Given Yueyan's personality, it was rare for her to say so much in one go.

Duoxu also calmed down, no longer sulking, and nodded.

"That's true. Besides getting points every day, if we persist in reading the daily record for a whole month, we can also get a reward. I just don't know if the reward will be any good."

Yueyan said after thinking for a moment.

"The reward shouldn't be bad, but what specific reward we get might depend on luck, just like the number of points we get each day."

When Duoxu heard this, she looked at her with a face full of resentment and said sourly.

"Yeah, just like today. I only got 5 points, but you actually got 9—just one short of the max."

According to the daily record's reward system, the points they received each day were also limited. As long as their names were mentioned, they would get at least 1 point, and at most 10 points.

It wasn't surprising that Huoyao got 10 points, since besides being the rightful owner of the daily record, she was also the chosen Child of Fate, so her luck being good was only natural.

But the huge gap between her and Yueyan was something Duoxu found a bit hard to bear.

Losing to a close friend was one thing, but watching a close friend succeed was even more infuriating.

Yueyan rolled her eyes at her and said calmly.

"I'm just having a moment of good luck. But regarding the number of points we get each day, I do have a guess, though I'm not sure if it's right."

Duoxu immediately leaned in close to her face, deliberately putting on a fawning and flattering expression.

"Good Yueyan, tell me quickly, what's your guess?"

Yueyan was long used to her antics and didn't react too strongly, directly saying.

"I think that if Huoyao mentions us more times in the daily record in a day, the points we get the next day might be higher. If she only mentions us once, then it's just down to luck."

"Of course, this is just my guess. We can test it out later to see if it's true."

Duoxu thought what she said made sense and was about to agree when she suddenly thought of something and blurted out.

"That's right, but what if Huoyao doesn't write our names in the daily record from now on?"

Yueyan's face stiffened, and for a moment she couldn't speak.

Huoyao was at Shiluo Academy, while they were students at the Heavenly Emperor's Family Courtyard. They had no interactions with her at all, so naturally they couldn't guarantee that their names would appear in the daily record every day.

Faced with this situation, Yueyan also didn't know what to do.

Martial Soul Hall, Empress's Palace.

"Old man, how about we just go kidnap Huoyao right now? At worst, we'll force that little dancer and Duoxu to come along too."

Huliena said with a face full of eagerness, making a suggestion to Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong glanced at her and said calmly.

"What's the matter? Getting 7 points isn't enough to satisfy you?"

Huliena sighed.

"It's not that I'm dissatisfied, it's just that the efficiency feels a bit too slow. There are so many things in the points shop that I want, and with a max of only 10 points a day, I don't know when I'll be able to afford them."

Yesterday she hadn't felt this way, because she didn't know the daily points cap was only 10.

But after seeing this reward system, she immediately couldn't sit still.

If her name didn't appear in the daily record one day, she wouldn't even get 1 point.

At this rate, it would take ages to buy the items she wanted.

Knowing that she would eventually stand on opposite sides from Han San and the divine realm, she naturally wanted to increase her strength as quickly as possible.

If it were Huliena, even Bibi Dong would be eyeing the items in the points shop with great desire.

But faced with Huliena's suggestion, Bibi Dong still refused.

"No. The new reward system says we can't let Huoyao know we have a copy of the daily record, or the consequences will be dire. If you go find Huoyao now, he'll definitely sense something's wrong."

"If he finds out we have a copy of the daily record, and it ends up being destroyed because of it, wouldn't that be losing big for small?"

Hearing this, Huliena slumped onto the table powerlessly, looking very distressed.

The daily record's newly added reward system today, besides clarifying the daily points cap, also stated that Huoyao must not know that they had obtained a copy of the daily record.

The implication was clear: from Lady Huoliena's perspective as the family's senior maid, she had likely already sent someone to Taolangke's academy, and even if they had to drag Huoyao back, there was no way she would be left to wander outside the city walls.

"It seems the diary was originally meant to avoid me coordinating with Huoyao, so they added those restrictive conditions."

Bibisong said thoughtfully.

After all, if Huoyao found out that she had obtained the diary, and that merely having one's name appear in it would grant a share of the Heavenly Emperor's Family's fortune, then Huoyao would surely list everyone's names every single day.

Fortunately, those who possessed these diaries were also receiving a steady stream of merit points, so that when the time came to go to war with the divine realm, they would have more cards to play.

What a pity—the path of collaboration had been directly blocked by the diary.

Thanks to Bibisong's reminder, the listener also understood the situation and expressed great dissatisfaction with the diary's restrictions.

"Then what should we do? Just resign ourselves to fate?"

Bibisong had no good solution either and said calmly after a moment of silence.

"Huoyao was always going to join Taolangke's academy anyway. Given the relationship between him and me, as long as he gets those three women from Taolangke to join together, the first choice will definitely be the Martial Arts Hall."

"So there's no need to rush; just wait and see."

As Huoyao's senior maid from his past life, and having watched him grow up, Bibisong was very confident in this.
