Diary—Chapter 5: Gu Yuena — "The King Falls in Love with You? This is Slander!"

As the Blue Silver Empress, the monarch of blue silver grass, Ah Yin still hoped—even in human form—that the fate of the soul beast clan could be changed. Ideally, they would never again be hunted by humans.

Ah Yin had heard of the Silver Dragon King, the leader of the soul beasts. She knew she was healing from her injuries in the Star Dou Great Forest, preparing to lead the soul beasts in rebellion against the oppression of the God Realm.

But what Ah Yin hadn't expected was that a human—Luo Ye—also shared this vision. According to the diary, not only did he want to change the fate of the soul beasts, but he had also already devised a plan to do so. Unfortunately, he had been defeated by the Asura God and Tang San, leading to the downfall of the soul beast race.

"Xiao San... Could it be true, what Luo Ye said? That he isn't my son, but an extraterritorial demon from another world?"

That thought brought pain and confusion to Ah Yin's heart.

Although she hadn't completely accepted the truth of Luo Ye's diary, her perception of him had already begun to change. The fact that he stood against the God Realm for the sake of the Soul Beast clan resonated deeply with her.

Of course, this shift in perception was exactly what Luo Ye had intended. After discovering the diary's hidden rules, he began operating on a completely different level from the other copyholders.

And it wasn't just Ah Yin who had been shaken by the diary's contents—the one who was most impacted was the Silver Dragon King herself, the leader of the soul beasts.

Star Dou Great Forest — The Lake of Life

In the heart of the Star Dou Great Forest, the massive figure of the Silver Dragon King emerged from the Lake of Life. Her silver scales shimmered under the sunlight, radiating a blinding brilliance.

Looking down coldly at Di Tian, her expression was the embodiment of regal majesty. Her voice was calm but filled with authority.

"Di Tian, where are the others?"

Di Tian lowered his head, not daring to look directly at her.

"Reporting to my lord, an unexpected incident occurred. The Ice Silkworm has vanished, and the other beasts have gone to search for him."

Vanished?

The Silver Dragon King's purple eyes flickered. She said nothing, but her heart sank into deep thought.

After a moment of silence, Di Tian hesitated before summoning the courage to ask, "My Lord, you awoke so suddenly—did something happen? Do you need my assistance?"

The Silver Dragon King returned to her senses and shook her head slightly.

"It's nothing. My injuries have stabilized to a certain degree. I don't need to sleep for the time being. Go, continue searching for the Ice Silkworm."

As she spoke, a subtle glint flashed in her eyes.

The Ice Silkworm has already been sacrificed… Di Tian and the others are bound to return empty-handed.

Unaware of the truth, Di Tian accepted the command and left without protest.

Once he was gone, Gu Yuena murmured to herself.

"It seems what's written in the diary is very likely true. That human named Luo Ye is the Son of Destiny… and the Ice Silkworm has indeed been sacrificed to him."

"So, as he said… the will of the Douluo Continent itself also wants to change the fate of soul beasts?"

The thought filled Gu Yuena with hope. She immediately turned her spiritual consciousness inward and flipped through the diary's pages, eager to read more.

But when she saw what came next, her heart instantly plunged into icy despair.

"Asura God! You damned bastard… Do you intend to exterminate all soul beasts?!"

The wound from the Asura God's Demonic Sword had never healed. If not for the sudden appearance of the diary—violently shaking within her sea of consciousness—she would still be in deep slumber.

Now, after understanding the diary's true nature and seeing the future devastation awaiting the soul beasts, Gu Yuena was filled with rage. She wanted nothing more than to tear the gods of the God Realm to shreds.

However, she was also self-aware.

"Even at my peak, I couldn't defeat the Asura God—one of the five God Kings. What chance would I have now?"

She began to see the larger picture.

"So the will of the Douluo Continent knew that the soul beasts alone couldn't stand against the God Realm. That's why this so-called Son of Destiny was born?"

After some reflection, Gu Yuena concluded this was likely the truth.

"Only..."

"What you wrote about my feelings for you is absolute slander! As the ruler of the soul beasts, how could I possibly fall in love with a human?!"

Gu Yuena scoffed with disdain.

While she believed the earlier parts of the diary and even respected Luo Ye's intentions, the mention of her falling in love with him was too much to accept.

"Still, since you once fought against the God Realm for our clan's sake, I'll let this slide—for now. Otherwise, those who dare blaspheme me would not end well."

Grumbling to herself, she opened the Points Mall.

But the moment she saw its contents, she froze.

"Two hundred points for a ten-thousand-year cultivation boost? A Thunder Tribulation Talisman that lets you survive the heavenly tribulation unscathed? A Nine Revolutions Great Rejuvenation Pill that heals any injury? Even… a godhood?!"

Gu Yuena was stunned.

She had already known that the diary wasn't ordinary, but its true power far exceeded her expectations.

Although she didn't need cultivation boosts or tribulation tools, two items caught her attention: the Nine Revolutions Great Rejuvenation Pill and godhood fragments.

The former could heal her current injuries, possibly restoring her to the strength of a peak god. At that point, she might even be able to defeat a God King. {T/N: I think Silver Dragon King at her peak should be Quasi God King or Early God King and her Combat power should be at mid-level God King at best}

And if not, at the very least, she would have enough power to protect herself and her people.

According to the Points Mall's description, the godhood fragments were also stackable. If she collected enough, she could even ascend directly to become a God King herself.

"No wonder Luo Ye is so confident—he truly believes he can crush the God Realm this time. With a diary like this, given enough time, even the God Realm won't be something to fear!"

"And not just him… I can even benefit from this!"

Her breathing became rapid. A tempting thought arose in her mind—to keep Luo Ye in the Star Dou Great Forest. That way, she could earn daily points and quickly buy the A Nine Revolutions Great Rejuvenation Pill.

But after serious consideration, Gu Yuena dismissed the idea.

"Luo Ye has lived once already. He knows better than anyone how to grow quickly. If he were to fail because of my selfishness, I would become the sinner of the soul beast race—and of all the Douluo Continent."
