Xiao Wu did not dare ask whether what Huoyao had said was true.

If it was false, then so be it. But if Han Chen had truly been secretly plotting against her, then once she showed even the slightest sign of suspicion, Han Chen would definitely turn on her.

For soul masters, a hundred-thousand-year soul ring was an opportunity that could only be encountered by chance. Even if they could not obtain a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, getting their hands on a hundred-thousand-year soul bone was enough to make any soul master unable to refuse.

With Xiao Wu's strength at the bottom of the hundred-thousand-year soul beast ranks, if Han Chen had truly been driven by greed and intended to harm her, she would most likely not even be able to escape.

Xiao Wu forced down the panic in her heart and deliberately followed behind Han San with a calm expression, while secretly using her spiritual power to flip open a new page in the diary.

[After reading so many secret entries in the diary, I gradually came to understand many things about the past and future that I had never known. There were even some hidden events.]

[For example, Han Chen had actually noticed long ago that Han San was a demon from beyond the realm. After erasing the memories of his real son, he wanted to use Han San as a replacement. That was why, in the beginning, Han Chen had looked upon Han San with extreme displeasure and had even considered killing him outright. Yet after Han San displayed his talent and awakened twin martial souls, he cast those thoughts aside and completely treated Han San as his own son.]

[To Han Chen, whether Han San was a demon from beyond the realm was not important. What mattered was whether he possessed sufficiently powerful talent. If Han Chen could benefit from him, then so what if he was a demon from beyond the realm?]

[Just as Han Chen had treated that Blue Silver Emperor, he had clearly known that the Blue Silver Emperor was close to giving birth and was at her weakest and most vulnerable moment, yet he deliberately allowed her to be hunted by Spirit Hall. He even watched as she sacrificed herself to become a soul ring and soul bone for Han Chen, only to finally be forced to sacrifice herself and become a god for Han Chen.]

[It had to be said that Han Chen was indeed a shrewd schemer. Not only did he obtain a son who had been taken over by a powerful being from beyond the realm, he also received the Blue Silver Emperor's soul ring and soul bone.]

[Han Chen, who had tasted the sweetness, even thought of a way to scheme against Han San, allowing Han San to eventually obtain Xiao Wu's sacrifice as well. Those two were not father and son at all—they were practically helping each other hunt for fathers.]

[Only, the Blue Silver Emperor and Xiao Wu were both too pitiful, ending up with such miserable fates.]

Inside a mountain cave in Holy Soul Village.

Yin Yuan's Blue Silver Grass avatar trembled on the surface, while in her spiritual world, turbulent waves had already risen in her heart.

Although Yin Yuan had not seen Han San for many years, Han Chen's descriptions had told her that Han San was a sensible child. She had always hoped that she could return to them as soon as possible, so that their family of three could truly be reunited.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. How could Little San be some demon from beyond the realm? And how could Han Chen have been plotting against me?"

Yin Yuan clenched her fists tightly, her beautiful face filled with anger and resentment. It was as though the woman named Huoyao was mocking both her husband and her son.

Yet amid her fury, a thread of doubt that Yin Yuan did not wish to acknowledge emerged in her heart. Huoyao's diary reminded her of certain events from years ago.

Just as Huoyao had said, Han Chen's attitude toward Han San had been extremely poor in the beginning. He had even been unwilling to speak to her about him.

But ever since Han San awakened twin martial souls, Han Chen's attitude toward him had undergone a complete reversal. Whenever he mentioned his son, he was full of pride and even claimed that Han San's future achievements would surely surpass his own.

Yin Yuan had not understood why at the time, but after reading Huoyao's diary, every question now had an answer.

Even so, Yin Yuan was still unwilling to believe these words, because if they were true, then would not all her sacrifices have become a joke?

Her sincere heart had been betrayed. From beginning to end, she had lived within Han Chen's schemes and deception.

"I don't believe Han Chen would treat me like this. It's fake. This must be fake!"

Yin Yuan muttered to herself. But the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became. Once the seed of doubt had been planted, it would inevitably take root and sprout rapidly.

Yin Yuan closed her eyes, not daring to look at the diary's contents again. Yet after hesitating for more than ten seconds, she could not resist after all. Looking at the diary before her, she whispered, "I'll just take one more look. As long as I find even one thing that proves he is lying, I'll never read it again."

After finding herself a reasonable excuse, Yin Yuan took a deep breath and slowly opened the diary again.

[If possible, I would also like to save the Blue Silver Emperor, so that she could leave Han Chen and Han San, that pair of father and son.]

[This is not because I am meddling in others' affairs. As the child born from the fusion of soul beasts and the will of the plane, my mission, aside from helping the will of the plane drive out the invaders controlling the God Realm, is to lead the Douluo Continent toward true prosperity. Naturally, the Heavenly Emperor's Family is also within the scope of my help.]

[Those fellows from the God Realm do not wish to see humans and soul beasts coexist peacefully, so soul masters who wish to increase their strength must hunt Heavenly Emperor's Family to obtain soul rings.]

[Under such harsh conditions, the numbers of both soul masters and Heavenly Emperor's Family will naturally decline, until they no longer have the ability to resist the God Realm's control. They can only be like one crop after another, endlessly providing them with the power of faith.]

[To the will of the Douluo Continent, whether humans or soul beasts, they are all its children. Naturally, it does not wish to see either side suffer extinction.]

[In this life, I had already thought of how to reverse this situation and change the cultivation methods of soul masters. Unfortunately, before we could act, Han San and the God Realm's side arrived. The Douluo Continent had no chance to turn things around again. The soul beast race suffered slaughter, and the surviving Heavenly Emperor's Family were also enslaved. I betrayed the trust of the Dragon King and disappointed her.]

[I had clearly promised her that I would help save the Heavenly Emperor's Family, yet in the end, I accomplished nothing. Moreover, I had promised her that once everything was over, I would accept her feelings for me. But I failed to keep my promise and could only watch as she died saving me beneath the blade of the God of Asura.]

[I will never forget that, at the final moment of her life, the sorrow and passion in her purple eyes as she looked at me. Her life force was rapidly fading away, yet she still endured the pain and told me not to blame myself. That tragic beauty will forever remain in my mind.]

[Han San, God of Asura, and those fellows from the God Realm—I will definitely shatter your schemes and make you pay your debts in blood!]

"Change the cultivation methods of soul masters? Let humans and soul beasts coexist peacefully? He actually wanted to do such a thing?"

Yin Yuan was stunned. Her lips trembled slightly as she stared at the diary before her in disbelief, her heart suffering an enormous shock.
