"Is this the Heaven Dou Empire?"

Chu Bai slowly stepped down from the carriage. At that moment, a figure hidden in the darkness gradually emerged—it was Ghost Douluo. Ghost Douluo said to Chu Bai, "Holy Son, now that we have arrived in the Heaven Dou Empire, the two of us will take our leave for now."

"Please do not worry. Old Ghost and I will always be by your side~"

Chrysanthemum Douluo said with a smile. Combined with his strangely affected tone, it made Chu Bai feel uncomfortable all over.

"Since I intend to conceal my identity, there is no need for the two elders to protect me at all times. Thank you for your trouble on this journey, Elders."

Chu Bai smiled as he bid farewell to Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, then slowly entered Heaven Dou City.

As he walked through the bustling streets of Heaven Dou City, Chu Bai could not help recalling the world he had lived in before transmigrating. Such prosperous streets were somewhat similar to the ones from his former life.

A burst of commotion came from not far away. Chu Bai looked over and saw what appeared to be a tavern. He simply walked over, ordered a cup of wine, and sat on the second floor to drink.

Just then, a group of people happened to pass by nearby.

Chu Bai naturally noticed them. Seeing how different their appearances were from those around them, he recognized them at once. Could these be the Shrek Seven Devils?

Four men and three women. One was a lecherous-looking fat man, one was a girl wearing rabbit-ear accessories, and one was an ordinary-looking youth with an extraordinary-looking belt around his waist.

Without a doubt, they were the Shrek Seven Devils.

"I never expected to run into this group like this. That guy who looks less than half as handsome as me should be Tang San, right?"

Chu Bai looked Tang San over.

"Mm, nothing special."

Chu Bai shook his head, then shifted his gaze to Xiao Wu, Rong Rong, and Zhu Zhuqing.

"As expected, the only pleasing sights in Shrek are the three of them."

In the end, Chu Bai's gaze settled on Xiao Wu, who was walking with a spring in her step. He smiled faintly and created this Diary Instance in his mind.

Below, Xiao Wu was chatting and laughing with Tang San when she suddenly felt a diary appear in her mind. Written on it were the words: "Chu Bai Diary Instance."

"Chu Bai Diary Instance? Is this a diary? But why did it appear in my head? And who is Chu Bai?" Xiao Wu was full of confusion. Tang San, beside her, noticed her expression and assumed she was feeling unwell. He asked with concern, "Xiao Wu, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, Brother, it's just that I..."

Before Xiao Wu could finish speaking, she felt as if her soul were being torn apart.

No matter how hard she tried, she could not speak of the Diary Instance.

Xiao Wu was shocked inwardly.

What kind of power is this? It can even affect my actions?!

Could it be that I can't tell anyone about the diary?

Xiao Wu vaguely formed a guess.

Though she was young, she was not foolish.

Since I can't tell Third Brother directly, I'll just find a chance to hint at it to him.

She raised her head, only to find that everyone had come over to check on her.

"Xiao Wu, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?" Tang San asked.

"I'm fine, Brother." Xiao Wu shook her head.

Watching from afar, Chu Bai could not help shaking his head. "So close, huh? I just won't let you two stay close. A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast took human form and came to the human world to acknowledge someone as her brother. I really don't know how anyone came up with such a plot..."

[Xiao Wu, the Hundred-Thousand-Year rogue rabbit. A perfectly good girl insisted on acknowledging that Tang San as her brother. What a complete waste of a good hand. Still, this rabbit is pretty innocent. She has a hundred thousand years of cultivation, so she must have lived for quite a long time, yet Tang San still fooled her senseless...]

This suddenly updated diary entry—

Was seen not only by Xiao Wu, but also by Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue...

At the same time, Bibi Dong said, "A hundred thousand years of cultivation... Could she be a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that took human form?!"

Qian Renxue could guess it as well. "A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast? So the Xiao Wu mentioned in Chu Bai's diary is actually a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"

Xiao Wu, who had been walking down the road, suddenly turned utterly pale.

As she read the diary's contents, her body trembled uncontrollably from extreme fear.

"W-Why has my identity been exposed... Could there be a Titled Douluo nearby?"

Xiao Wu looked around in terror. Tang San patted her shoulder, but the sudden movement made her jump in fright. "Xiao Wu, you look terrible. If you're not feeling well, let's return to the academy first."

"I..."

Xiao Wu said nothing. She desperately wanted to know what this so-called diary was.

[If you ask me, Tang San really isn't human. He may not know Xiao Wu's true identity yet, but later, even after learning that she is a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, he still takes her to the Spirit Master Tournament.]

[Good grief, is that how a normal person thinks? Xiao Wu is definitely brainless too. Even if the Lovesick Heartbreak Red can conceal your aura, can you really be sure that nothing will go wrong? And she insists on staying with Tang San even if it means dying. Not only did she fail to save her own life by staying with him, she even failed to save the lives of her two brothers.]

Xiao Wu froze.

What Spirit Master Tournament? What Lovesick Heartbreak Red?

She knew nothing about those things. Could this be talking about the future?

And what did he mean by Hundred-Thousand-Year rogue rabbit? How was she a rogue? Was it because she fought in skirts and used Soft Bone Lock at close range!?

How dare he say I have no brains... What exactly is this diary, and who exactly is this Chu Bai? Xiao Wu desperately wanted answers.

But no matter what, she was already certain of one thing.

This Chu Bai already knew her identity.

In other words, there might no longer be a place for her in human society!

Do I... have to leave?

Xiao Wu could not help looking up at Tang San beside her. Then she recalled the diary's earlier contents. Tang San would learn that she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in the future, yet even so, he would still take her to the Spirit Master Tournament?

[Anyone with a brain would know that if you really liked someone, then even if there were something capable of concealing her aura, would you still take her to a Spirit Master Tournament filled with powerful human experts? Aren't you just looking for a legitimate excuse to obtain a soul ring and soul bone?]

The diary entry appeared.

Even Bibi Dong, who wanted to hunt Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, nodded in agreement.

"This Tang San really isn't human."

Qian Renxue commented as well, "Tang San really isn't a man. So he's putting on an act as a pure lover?!"

"How could I possibly fall for someone like him in the future?!"
