Chapter 2: Fabricating the Diary, Capturing the Love-Brains

Since I've come to the Douluo Continent and can even get involved with those beauties from the original work through the Diary, Luo Ye naturally won't let go of anything.

No more pretending, Luo Ye admits he's just an LSP, laying his cards on the table!

Oh no, correction, he's not old.

As for how to fabricate the Diary's content so that the owners of the Diary copies will believe it and grow closer?

As a playboy who wandered through flower clusters in his past life, a veteran sea king with rich experience, Luo Ye says, the mere love-brains of the Douluo Continent, just watch how I handle them!

According to the system's description, the higher a woman's importance in the original work, the greater her chance of obtaining a Diary copy.

In that case, Zhu Zhuqing, a member of the main cast, is probably one of the Diary copy owners, right?

Feeling Luo Ye's gaze, Zhu Zhuqing blinked and asked.

"What's wrong, Luo Ye?"

Luo Ye didn't answer right away; instead, he stared at Zhu Zhuqing, his gaze extremely gentle, his eyes full of love.

Only after making Zhu Zhuqing feel very uncomfortable did Luo Ye suddenly snap out of it and hurriedly change the subject.

"Nothing much, since I've already obtained my third soul ring, let's leave the Star Dou Great Forest so we don't miss the enrollment at Shilaike Academy."

Putting on a display of affection is just basic skill for a sea king.

Next, I should fabricate a story to subtly influence their emotions and also shape Luo Ye's image in their hearts.

Zhu Zhuqing, unaware of the truth, walked while secretly sizing up Luo Ye; since just now she felt Luo Ye was a bit off, especially the way Luo Ye looked at her earlier left Zhu Zhuqing at a loss, but she couldn't directly ask him, for fear that if she was being overly sentimental, it would be too embarrassing.

Just as Zhu Zhuqing was feeling troubled, she suddenly noticed a Diary appear in her mind, its cover bearing several large characters.

【Luo Ye's Diary (Zhu Zhuqing Exclusive Copy)】

"Luo Ye's Diary? Why does it have my name on it? And why did it appear in my mind?"

Zhu Zhuqing stared, baffled by this sudden appearance; just as she was about to speak up, the Diary suddenly opened, revealing its contents in full.

【I am Luo Ye, I have been reborn.】

【I have been reborn to a time before any tragedy occurred, when the Douluo Continent had not yet fallen and soul beasts had not yet been slaughtered and enslaved.】

【As the child of fate chosen by the will of the Douluo Continent's plane, my previous self betrayed Its trust, failed to turn the tide, and ultimately lost by a narrow margin to the extraterritorial heavenly demon.】

【Fortunately I have been reborn and have a chance to start over; this time I will surely shatter the divine realm's conspiracy and kill that extraterritorial heavenly demon named Tang San!】

【I am confident in this, for besides the foresight of my rebirth, I have also obtained this mysterious Diary; as long as I persist in writing a diary every day, I can earn all kinds of rewards, allowing me to grow faster than in my previous life.】

【Just as in my previous life, I still met Zhu Zhuqing and, in the Star Dou Great Forest, received the sacrifice of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, obtaining a third soul ring of million-year level.】

A million-year-level third soul ring?!

Seeing the content written on the Diary, Zhu Zhuqing's pupils contracted sharply, her pretty face filled with disbelief.

As the daughter of the Zhu Family patriarch, Zhu Zhuqing can be said to have witnessed many strong individuals and heard of many deeds.

But in her understanding, a hundred-thousand-year soul beast is already the strongest among soul beasts; she has never even heard of a million-year-level soul beast.

What on earth is going on?

Is what's written on the Diary true?

Did Luo Ye really reincarnate?

Zhu Zhuqing's heart felt like a kitten scratching, urgently wanting to know the truth; after hesitating repeatedly, she could no longer hold back and directly asked.

"Luo Ye, your"

Zhu Zhuqing's words were cut off before she could finish.

It wasn't that she didn't want to ask, but she suddenly felt her heart as if gripped by an invisible big hand, a sensation of suffocation coming over her, leaving Zhu Zhuqing unable to breathe.

This let her clearly realize that if she continued speaking, that force would crush her heart, causing her to die instantly.

"What on earth is this? Why is this happening?"

Zhu Zhuqing clutched her chest, beads of cold sweat appearing on her smooth, fair forehead.

Luo Ye knew why Zhu Zhuqing was like this, yet he pretended ignorance, startled and alarmed as he supported her arm, asking with a concerned expression.

"What's wrong, Zhuqing?"

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head; after dispelling the thought of asking Luo Ye about the Diary, that mysterious force indeed vanished, and the previous feeling of suffocation disappeared as well.

"Don't worry, I'm fine; let's continue on our way."

After setting off again, Zhu Zhuqing examined the Diary in her mind once more; the few rules displayed there made her fully understand why that situation had just occurred.

【Diary copy rules are as follows.】

【1: Each day, the copy owner whose name is mentioned in the Diary can earn point rewards. (Points can be used to purchase items in the shop.)】

【2: If a copy owner continuously watches the Diary's content for one month, they will receive a random reward. (Rewards include but are not limited to soul power, soul bone, soul ring, etc.)】

【3: Copy owners must not reveal the existence of the Diary to outsiders, nor harm the Diary's owner; otherwise they will be deprived of their Diary copy and face eradication.】

【4: Copy owners may not harm each other or seize rewards; otherwise they bear the consequences themselves.】

【Note: More functions will be unlocked in the future; please wait patiently.】

"Cannot reveal the Diary's existence to others? Does that include Luo Ye, the Diary's owner?"

Zhu Zhuqing gave a thoughtful glance, sidelong looking at Luo Ye without a change in expression, then continued to watch the following content.

【In my previous life, although I went to Shilaike Academy together with Zhuqing, I left because I disagreed with those guys' ideals, joining the Spirit Hall and even becoming a disciple of Pontiff Bibi Dong.】

【Precisely for that reason, when I next saw Zhuqing, she had already been deceived by the disguises of Tang San, Dai Mubai and others, becoming their partners; only after great effort did I let Zhuqing see their true nature, allowing her to break free from Shilaike Academy.】

【This time I must not repeat the same mistake; I will stay at Shilaike Academy, beforehand let Zhuqing clearly see those guys' true faces, and also try to bring Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu along.】

【After all, they are Zhuqing's two best friends; unfortunately they were later killed by Tang San, and even her family and friends couldn't escape disaster—Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo died tragically, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was destroyed, the Azure Green Python and Titan Giant Ape were slain because Tang San needed their soul rings and soul bones, and even Xiao Wu was forced by Tang San's scheming to sacrifice herself to him.】
