Old Man and Woman Fight, Sister and Brother-in-law Come to Make Trouble

From Guo Muyan's perspective, Huoyao had most likely already plotted against her in her previous life.

Rather than remain in the Star Dou Great Forest and get in Huoyao's way, it would be better to follow his plan. Only then would there be a greater chance of defeating the God Realm and changing the fate of the Heavenly Emperor's Family.

But if she went along with him, how could she guarantee that Huoyao would not keep needling her through his diary every day? That would be far too infuriating.

Guo Muyan fell into deep thought, trying to find a way to have the best of both worlds.

As she pondered, Huoyao had already led Zhu Zhuqing out of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The contents displayed in the diary gave Zhu Zhuqing an enormous shock. What had worried her most were those so-called enemies, yet according to Huoyao's account, in her previous life, he had already become entangled with one of the gods.

What shocked her even more was that, after looking at the enemies who were hostile toward her and then recalling the meaningful look Huoyao had given her, Zhu Zhuqing realized that her relationship with Huoyao in her previous life must have been extremely close.

He might even have chosen Taolangke Academy because of her.

Driven by curiosity, Zhu Zhuqing secretly glanced at Huoyao beside her and could not help asking tentatively, "Huoyao, are you really going to Taolangke Academy with me? With your talent, even if you went to the Heavenly Emperor's Family Academy, the Star Luo Imperial Academy, or even Spirit Hall, you would receive great attention. A tiny academy like Taolangke would probably only waste your talent."

A three-ring Soul Venerable before the age of thirteen was an unparalleled genius even across the entire Soul Land Continent.

Zhu Zhuqing could guarantee that if the Star Luo Empire learned of this, it would definitely send people to recruit Huoyao and offer extremely generous terms.

Huoyao knew how greatly his diary had shaken Zhu Zhuqing. Her surprise was not limited to Zhu Zhuqing alone; this was precisely what Huoyao had planned from the very beginning.

Facing her question, Huoyao looked deeply into her eyes and said pointedly, "To be honest, Taolangke Academy has no appeal to me at all. But there is someone there who is extremely important to me."

Feeling Huoyao's gaze on her, Zhu Zhuqing's little face tightened, and she suddenly became extremely flustered.

Now Zhu Zhuqing was certain that Huoyao was going to Taolangke Academy for her sake. He wanted to pull her out of the sea of suffering, and even if it meant wasting his talent, he did not care.

But I don't have Huoyao's memories of my previous life. Even if I know that my relationship with him was very close back then, I still can't accept it.

Zhu Zhuqing pursed her lips and did not dare look at Huoyao again.

Just as she was agonizing over this, the diary in her mind began to beat wildly once more, indicating that new content had appeared. Zhu Zhuqing did not hesitate and immediately began reading it.

[To be honest, there is no point in going to Taolangke Academy. Even though I know Han San is an otherworldly demon, I still cannot make a move against him now.]

[Han Chen behind Han San is troublesome enough. Not only is he a despicable scoundrel who would seize another man's wife and abandon his own biological son, but as one of the Five Great God Kings of the God Realm, his attention has always been fixed on Han San.]

[To be precise, the reason Han San, an otherworldly demon, was able to rise on the Soul Land Continent was because a god guided him, hoping to use him to obtain greater benefits.]

[Before the great calamity of my previous life, I had tried to kill Han San once, but a god intervened and granted him the power of destiny. If not for those shameless old bastards from the God Realm stepping in, Han San would never have been able to cause any waves.]

[But even so, Taolangke Academy is not a place I can avoid.]

[Only by helping Zhu Zhuqing see Dai Mubai's true face can I persuade her to leave Taolangke. After all, she is not like me. She possesses memories of her previous life and knows that I have feelings for her that will never fade, so she will eventually choose me again.]

[Since that is not possible, I will just let our relationship develop slowly, step by step, until we come together.]

[With my charm, even if I merely get to know her again, Zhu Zhuqing will definitely fall for me. I am not boasting—those women who chased after me in my previous life are the best proof.]

Hearing Huoyao say that he had feelings for her that would never fade, and that she would definitely fall for him even if they started over, Zhu Zhuqing's face turned slightly red. She silently rolled her eyes at him.

Besides that, Zhu Zhuqing was also very curious about what Huoyao meant by the secret on Dai Mubai's side.

Zhu Zhuqing had never held the slightest goodwill toward the fiancé to whom she had been betrothed since childhood.

According to the Dai family's rules, the loser in the struggle for the throne would die. As Dai Mubai's fiancée, she was one of those destined to be eliminated.

Yet she had persisted all this time, resisting the pressure that weighed on her every moment, while Dai Mubai had fled in fear.

Zhu Zhuqing had originally gone to Taolangke Academy to see what Dai Mubai was doing. If he had truly become depraved, then regardless of whether the Dai family would release her, she would break off her engagement with him.

But Huoyao's diary made Zhu Zhuqing feel that Dai Mubai's actions might be even more disgusting than she had imagined.

"Soon. We'll reach Suotuo City today. Once we get there, I'll find out exactly what Dai Mubai has been doing. I really want to see what kind of person he truly is!"

Zhu Zhuqing quietly encouraged herself, but the diary in her mind stirred again. She immediately stopped dwelling on what Dai Mubai was doing and hurriedly began reading the new content.

[Speaking of which, I chose a path different from my previous life. Although I could rescue Zhu Zhuqing from the fire pit earlier, there are some people I still need to reunite with.]

[In my previous life, after leaving Taolangke, I joined Spirit Hall. After discovering my talent, Teacher secretly observed me for some time before finally accepting me as his disciple, making me the junior brother of the Spirit Hall Pope's disciple.]

[Whether it was that old fellow Bi Bi Dong or Sister Hu Lie Na, they both took excellent care of me. Whenever there was anything good, they thought of me, allowing me to feel warmth again and making them the closest family I had.]

[Yet when I was undergoing the divine trial, both of them were bullied by Yu Xiaoqian and Han San's disciples. Teacher was killed by Han San and became the key to his obtaining the position of a god. Even Sister's martial soul and soul power were crippled. It was not because Han San showed mercy, but because he wanted Sister to watch all her loved ones and friends die at his hands, letting her experience despair.]

[Just as I am about to expose Dai Mubai's true face to Zhu Zhuqing, once the time is right, I will definitely make Teacher see Yu Xiaoqian's hypocritical and vicious nature clearly.]
