Although he did not know exactly who could see the diary entries he wrote, Huo Yuhao felt that it definitely was not limited to the few girls at the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy.

There might also be people in the original three nations of Douluo Continent who could see its contents.

Moreover, based on Gu Yuena, Meng Hongchen, Wang Dong'er, Di Qiu'er, and Xiao Xiao, Huo Yuhao had vaguely guessed that those who could see the diary's contents had likely played more or less significant roles in the original story.

That princess of the Star Luo Empire, Xu Jiujiu, was very likely one of them.

Since that was the case, Huo Yuhao naturally did not mind using the Diary to stir up trouble. Even if Xu Jiujiu could not see the diary's contents like Meng Hongchen and the others, it was no big deal.

But if she could see it, then with this new entry alone, even if it could not drive a wedge between the Star Luo Royal Family and the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, it would certainly create distrust between them. The royal family might even begin investigating in secret, and the White Tiger Duke would never again be trusted as he had been before!

At the thought of that scene, the corners of Huo Yuhao's lips curled up slightly, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

Now that he knew someone could see the diary entries he wrote, there were simply far too many things he could do!

Xu Jiujiu, in her boudoir, woke the instant she sensed the Diary Copy stir in her mind. She hurriedly began reading the Diary's new entry.

As a princess of the Star Luo Empire, she could not go to the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy like Gu Yuena, Di Qiu'er, and Wang Dong'er to find Huo Yuhao and figure out a way to obtain the Diary Copy's rewards.

Still, even gaining some intelligence from it was good. For instance, Huo Yuhao was the Child of Destiny. If she had learned that earlier, she would never have allowed Huo Yuhao to go to the Sun Moon Empire. No matter what, she would have sought justice for him and made him stay in the Star Luo Empire!

In fact, when she had learned that the White Tiger Duke, Dai Hao, truly had an unknown son named Huo Yuhao, Xu Jiujiu had already believed his claim in the Diary that he was the Child of Destiny.

She had immediately sent people after him, hoping to bring Huo Yuhao back. Unfortunately, since she did not know which route Huo Yuhao had taken, they ultimately returned empty-handed.

However, upon seeing the Diary's contents this time, Xu Jiujiu's pupils abruptly dilated. Her entire body went stiff, and only after a long while did she involuntarily swallow.

Gulp. My imperial brother abdicated? He gave the throne of the Star Luo Emperor to the White Tiger Duke, Dai Hao? Is that true?

Xu Jiujiu was completely dumbfounded. She had woken up to such explosive news—how was she supposed to take that?

Unlike the other nobles, the White Tiger Duke held an extremely unique position within the Star Luo Empire. After all, the Xu Family's current throne had originally been seized from the Dai Family!

It was only because the Dai Family's status was too special, and because Dai Mubai of the Shrek Seven Devils had Ascended to godhood and risen to the God Realm ten thousand years ago, that the Xu Family had reluctantly let them be instead of wiping out the Dai Family. They merely restricted the Dai Family's influence in secret.

Yet because the current White Tiger Duke, Dai Hao, had guarded the border for years and had not even returned home for a single visit, the White Tiger Duke's prestige in the present-day Star Luo Empire was no less than that of the royal family.

If Dai Hao had not done it deliberately, then not only the emperor Xu Jiawei, but even Xu Jiujiu herself would not believe it!

If things truly developed according to the original trajectory, and Huo Yuhao ultimately Ascended to godhood but was lectured by Tang San into giving up revenge, then my imperial brother would definitely choose to abdicate on his own! Otherwise, there would be no need for Dai Hao to act personally—someone would push him into launching a coup! By then, the fate of our Xu Family would be even worse.

Moreover, Dai Hao himself would never refuse to become the Star Luo Emperor. This is the best opportunity to restore the glory of their Dai Family!

But! Is wiping out our Xu Family truly just the law of survival, where the victor becomes king and the weak are prey to the strong? I will never allow that to happen!

Xu Jiujiu did not doubt the authenticity of Huo Yuhao's diary entry, because anyone in that situation would have made the same choice, and Dai Hao would certainly be no exception!

The only reason we have not acted against the Dai Family before was because the Star Luo Empire needed the White Tiger Duke, and because we feared that the God Realm might interfere in Douluo Continent's affairs. But now that the God Realm has lost contact with Douluo Continent, it is time for the White Tiger Duke's Mansion's influence to be restricted!

After taking a deep breath, Xu Jiujiu rose directly from her bed. She hastily tidied herself up, then rushed toward the Imperial Palace.

Such a major matter as uprooting the forces under the White Tiger Duke naturally required her imperial brother to make the decision!

Unlike Xu Jiujiu, who was the younger sister of the Star Luo Emperor Xu Jiawei and found it inconvenient to live in the Imperial Palace, so she could only live outside it.

As a princess, Wei Na's residence was naturally within the Heaven Dou Empire's Imperial Palace.

After reading this new diary entry, Wei Na's feelings were naturally the complete opposite of Xu Jiujiu's. She could not help but burst out laughing.

"Something like this will happen in the Star Luo Empire? Xu Jiawei will still have his entire family wiped out by the Dai Family after abdicating? Hahaha, this is too interesting! If I'm not mistaken, Xu Jiujiu should also have Huo Yuhao's Diary Copy, right? I'm so curious what her reaction will be when she sees this entry!"

Wei Na could not hide her gloating smile at all. If she could, she would have loved nothing more than to appear before Xu Jiujiu right now and savor her expression.

After sitting up, Wei Na's eyes flickered as she murmured softly.

"Even if the Star Luo Royal Family does not wipe out the Dai Family in the short term, they will certainly do everything they can to weaken the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. They know full well that doing so will weaken the Star Luo Empire, yet the Star Luo Royal Family has no choice but to do it. How interesting!"

After her sigh of emotion, Wei Na looked at the list of reward recipients announced by the Diary Copy, her eyes filled with envy.

Back then, Xu Jiujiu was not the only one who had sent people after Huo Yuhao. Wei Na had made the same choice, but she had failed as well.

It was precisely because of that that Wei Na envied Meng Hongchen, Gu Yuena, Wang Dong'er, and the others even more. If the people she had sent had managed to bring Huo Yuhao to the Heaven Dou Empire, would all those rewards not have been hers?

Why did she have to watch helplessly and fret like this?

"No! I have to find a way to lure Huo Yuhao to our Heaven Dou Empire! I absolutely cannot just watch the Child of Destiny of Douluo Continent remain in Sun Moon. I cannot let all the rewards fall into the hands of Sun Moon's people!"

Wei Na's thoughts raced as she considered how to make Huo Yuhao pledge allegiance to the Heaven Dou Empire.

Meanwhile, at the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy, all the girls with Diary Copies were brimming with fighting spirit. They were ready to regroup, determined to obtain today's reward no matter what.

If one sentence had to describe them, it would be:

Every morning when they woke up, the first thing they did was cheer themselves on—today, they had to get a reward!
