Keep Cursing Me! You Damn Cliffhanger Dog

"Truth?"

Qian Renxue's golden pupils narrowed slightly. She knew Bibi Dong had disliked her ever since she was little, and she had never intended to acknowledge her as her mother either. But what did Chu Bai mean by that? Could there really have been some misunderstanding between her and Bibi Dong?

"Impossible. That woman never treated me as her daughter." Qian Renxue shook her head.

Bibi Dong seemed to have recalled something as well. That awful memory surged back into her heart once more. She did not want to revisit those days that had driven her to despair—the days of imprisonment, more hopeless than death itself.

She had not wanted to recall that past, but Bibi Dong suddenly felt a glimmer of hope. She hoped Qian Renxue could learn the truth of those events through Chu Bai's diary. Perhaps then, the relationship between the two of them might ease somewhat.

No matter what, Qian Renxue was still her daughter.

[That Qian Xunji really was a beast. He could even lay hands on his own disciple. And you called yourself Angel Douluo? You should've called yourself Bedroom Douluo instead. If I hadn't been born too late, I definitely would've used the Pangu Axe to open his eyes.]

[Poor Qian Renxue. She only learned of this after Bibi Dong died. She herself was the child born after that father of hers, worse than a beast, forced himself on his own disciple.]

Bang!

Inside the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, the cup in Qian Renxue's hand crashed to the floor and shattered.

She stared at the words in the diary in disbelief. At some point, tears had already streamed down her face. She shook her head, unwilling to believe that her father had been that kind of man.

Yet everything Chu Bai said made so much sense. The diary had appeared out of nowhere, making it difficult for her not to believe it.

"If this is why you never liked me..."

Qian Renxue wiped away her tears and took a deep breath. Years of undercover work had long since sealed away part of her emotions. Though her heart ached terribly, she knew that if she wanted to learn the truth, perhaps she could only ask herself.

"Tomorrow, I'll go back and ask Grandpa. He definitely won't lie to me..."

[Sure enough, love-brained idiots get people killed! This mother-daughter tragedy only needed to happen once. Now that I'm here, once I get the chance, the first person I'll personally kill will be Yu Xiaogang. It'll count as getting rid of a menace for the people. Who told that guy to ruin Bibi Dong?]

[Bibi Dong is beautiful all on her own!!!]

[As for Qian Renxue... I have no idea how she ended up liking Tang San. Was it because Tang San defeated her? Then she fell in love with him?]

[Tsk, tsk, tsk. Women with big chests and no brains are terrifying!]

That was where the first diary entry ended. Qian Renxue nearly spat out blood. This Chu Bai actually dared to say that about her?!

"How could I possibly fall in love with my enemy? This diary is definitely talking nonsense. And he actually dared to say... say mine were big, and that I had no brains?! I'll admit the first part, but the second is pure slander!"

"When I see him, I definitely won't let him off."

Yet as she watched the diary end just like that, Qian Renxue felt an itch in her heart, as though she still wanted to keep reading.

"Why did you stop writing? That's it? So short and weak?! Keep cursing me! You damn cliffhanger dog!!!"

Qian Renxue was dumbfounded. She still wanted to know what happened in the future!

"Is that all?"

Bibi Dong sighed softly and leaned weakly against the bedside.

Having the truth of that year revealed in this manner did not seem quite as hard to accept.

It would be even better if Qian Renxue could see it.

Clearly, she had no idea that Qian Renxue had seen the diary too.

"Yu Xiaogang, if you truly are that kind of person, then all these years Bibi Dong has thought of you for nothing." Fury flickered in Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes, and her full chest rose and fell violently. It was easy to imagine just how turbulent her emotions were at that moment.

[Host has completed a Roast Diary entry. Roast damage: Moderate. Reward obtained: Second Soul Ring's age increased to 9,999 years. Soul Power increased by four levels!]

Joy filled Chu Bai's heart. He immediately summoned his martial soul, which had already evolved into the Pangu Axe. Amid a burst of chaotic light, an ancient, unadorned axe fell into his hand.

The Pangu Axe before him looked incomparably ancient. Mysterious runes were carved across its handle, like imprints of the Great Dao, containing an unimaginably terrifying power!

Even the surrounding air seemed to grow heavier, and the instant Chu Bai touched the Pangu Axe, his expression changed.

"Why is it so heavy?!"

Chu Bai exerted tremendous effort before finally holding the Pangu Axe steadily in his hand. Feeling the power within it, he could not conceal his excitement.

"Compared to my previous martial soul, its power is stronger by who knows how much!"

As he circulated his Soul Power, three purple Soul Rings rose from beneath Lin Mu's feet. The first and second rings were rather special—although purple, faint black patterns had already appeared upon them!

"After all, they're only one year away from becoming ten-thousand-year Soul Rings. Even a Soul Ancestor wouldn't be my match now."

Chu Bai withdrew the Pangu Axe, and only then did the oppressive force around him gradually dissipate.

"Looks like I need to find a time to test out my new soul skills."

Compared to soul skills, however, Chu Bai had an even greater headache at the moment: how was he supposed to explain to Bibi Dong that both his martial soul and Soul Rings had evolved...

He could not exactly say it was because he wrote a diary, could he?

Who would believe that?!

"Forget it. I can only play it by ear when the time comes..."

The next day, Chu Bai met Bibi Dong as usual. Seeing that he was still as respectful toward her as ever, Bibi Dong could not help but feel suspicious. Was that diary really written by Xiao Bai?

Whenever she thought of how Chu Bai had roasted her so mercilessly in the diary, yet she could not directly ask him about it, Bibi Dong felt uncomfortable. Still, she spoke to Chu Bai as she normally would.

"Today is your practical combat training, Xiao Bai. Are you ready?" Bibi Dong asked softly.

Chu Bai nodded, though his expression was somewhat strange.

Once Bibi Dong saw his Soul Rings later, wouldn't she question him thoroughly? How was he supposed to explain it...

Bibi Dong nodded and led Chu Bai to a massive forest not far away. This forest belonged to Spirit Hall, and there were some soul beasts within it. They were not particularly powerful, but for a soul master at Chu Bai's current stage, they were perfectly suitable.

"Let me see the results of your recent cultivation."

Bibi Dong spoke to Chu Bai.

Chu Bai had no choice but to steel himself and leap down into the forest. Chaotic light slowly emerged from his right hand. As Chu Bai arrived, figures rushed out from the forest one after another, roaring at him.

"They'll find out sooner or later anyway. Why worry about it?"

Chu Bai sighed softly, then his eyes sharpened. As the Soul Power within his body erupted, three purple Soul Rings eerily circled his body, releasing a powerful aura.
