Tang San and I Are Mortal Enemies!

No way. Seriously?

This was definitely the first time the owner of a diary copy had been this shocked.

So the entire family of Lord Tang San, who had become the Sea God, weren't human?

The only one who'd cultivated into a human form was actually Tang San's father!

And the astonishing revelation that had left Guo Nian and Duoduo stunned was that Tang Hao, who had resisted the Spirit Academy's search, was a Clear Sky Hammer spirit master with a hundred-thousand-year soul ring.

Tang Hao and the ten-thousand-year-old Blue Silver Emperor had given birth to Tang San, who possessed a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor soul ring. Tang San and the ten-thousand-year-old Soft Bone Demon Rabbit had given birth to Ying Wu, who possessed a hundred-thousand-year soul ring. And then Ying Wu had married a man who was supposedly a descendant of the Dragon King, and they had given birth to Tang San.

By that logic, Tang San's descendants couldn't possibly be ordinary humans, could they?

The revelation left Guo Nian gasping.

Could that... really count as a human?

If the descendants of the Dragon King were killed, wouldn't that draw the wrath of the Dragon King and the Dragon Clan?

Duoduo and the others exchanged glances, seeing the shock and a trace of sympathy in each other's eyes.

She had known that the diary's owner had written about the future, but she had never imagined she'd get to witness such a bombshell!

This... this was explosive!

Especially for Duoduo, the realization hit even harder.

As one of the successors to the Nine-Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, she knew more than Guo Nian. Naturally, she knew about the deep connection between the Sea God Tang San and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.

For a long time, Duoduo had held Tang San and the ancestors of the Nine-Treasure Glazed Tile Clan in high regard. But now...

Her impression of Tang San had completely collapsed.

Even Tang Hao, who had been in the Star Dou Great Forest, had broken through the defenses.

She had finally found a soul beast that could help her improve her strength. She'd thought she could absorb its soul ring and then read the diary for updates, hoping to get some insight. Instead, she'd read about Tang San's ancestor and watched her image of him collapse in her mind.

He'd been the ancestor who founded the Tang Sect and led the sect to become a force powerful enough to produce a Sea God. He was supposed to be a brilliant, divine warrior. So why...

Why had Tang San's ancestor turned out to be a human?

Tang Ya felt that she might never be able to face the image of Tang San, the founder of the Tang Sect and the Spirit Academy, ever again. Meanwhile, Zhuo Zhuo patiently explained to Ying Bei and the others what Tang San's ancestor had done.

Good grief...

The Star Dou Great Forest, deep within the Lake of Life.

After finishing the entire diary, Guo Nian could no longer control her emotions. A terrifying aura burst from her body, and a terrifying pressure descended, making the Three-Eyed Golden Monkey beside her cry out in fear.

The terrifying aura spread outward at an astonishing speed.

In an instant, more than half of the Star Dou Great Forest was shaken.

The trees nearest the Lake of Life were uprooted, and great clods of earth flew through the air. The lake's surface churned violently.

The many powerful soul beasts, including the Bear Lord and the Azure Emperor, turned pale. Their eyes, filled with shock, turned toward the Lake of Life. Only Di Tian's expression revealed a trace of uncertainty.

This was the aura of the Lord...

But why had the Lord suddenly released such a terrifying aura?

Di Tian certainly didn't think the Lord had eaten something bad. The Lord had obviously been angered, but he had no idea what had happened.

"You stay here and don't move. I'll go see what's going on."

Di Tian's expression was grave. He gave the Bear Lord a meaningful look, then hurried toward the Lord.

Only after Di Tian had left did the terrifying aura finally dissipate. The Bear Lord also let out a long breath and unconsciously swallowed.

He knew that Di Tian had a Lord whom he respected above all others. For some reason, the Lord had been sleeping deep beneath the Star Dou Great Forest and had never appeared. Even so, he'd never really taken the matter to heart.

But now, after experiencing that terrifying aura, he realized how ridiculous his earlier thoughts had been.

Just that terrifying aura alone was beyond anything he could withstand.

Guo Nian's anger had come quickly, but it had faded just as fast. At least on the surface, it had almost entirely dissipated.

After all, the gods were already looking for her. If she lost control again and released her aura, the gods might discover her.

Then she'd end up just like the Golden Dragon King, trapped in a cage.

"My Lord, what happened?"

Di Tian hurried to the secluded area where Guo Nian was. He glanced at Guo Nian and the Three-Eyed Golden Monkey, but neither of them said anything. They only looked at him in silence.

A Lord, a divine beast emperor, and the hope of the entire soul beast race.

He couldn't let anything happen to either of them.

So what had happened? Why had his Lord suddenly released such a terrifying aura?

A trace of doubt crossed Di Tian's eyes.

"Nothing."

Guo Nian took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. But beneath her composed expression, her heart was already surging like a storm.

That person called Tang San had actually become friends with the son of the Sea God, and might even have had a child with him?

It was utterly absurd!

As part of the Dragon God, she carried the dragon clan's mission of searching for a way to restore the soul beasts. Yet the gods had slaughtered the Dragon God and made her their prisoner.

How could she possibly have any connection with the son of the Sea God Tang San, let alone have his child?

What a joke. Tang San was in the middle of fighting for the godhood of the Asura God. He was trying to make the soul beasts his servants...

She and Tang San were mortal enemies!

Even if she died, she would never have anything to do with the son of the Sea God Tang San!

But once her anger had passed, Guo Nian calmed down.

The diary's contents seemed to be random, at least up to this point. Nothing it had said had come true.

In other words, even if something like that was possible, it probably had to be avoided.

Now that she knew what might happen, she had to find a way to prevent it.

A dignified Dragon King like her would never be reduced to that!

Tang San and I are mortal enemies!

Guo Nian's expression finally softened, while Di Tian beside her was utterly baffled.

He didn't understand.

Ever since he'd awakened, his Lord had been acting strangely. Something must have happened to her, but he knew nothing about it.

Perhaps... it was his failure to protect her.

Then...

What had happened to his Lord?

Di Tian's eyes revealed a trace of worry.
