To be honest—
Although Su Chen constantly complained about Bibi Dong in his diary, deep down, he still admired her quite a bit. This was a woman with both brains and strategy—a true powerhouse.
To change someone like her, one could only appeal to her as a woman. Any other approach would be practically impossible.
"Oh right."
Su Chen suddenly remembered something. He pulled out an envelope and handed it to Hu Liena, saying,"This was just delivered. It's from the Heaven Dou Empire. I think it's a letter from Qian Renxue for you."
"Xue'er?"
Hu Liena took the letter, puzzled. That didn't seem right. She had only been officially titled as Saintess today—how could Qian Renxue's congratulatory letter have arrived so quickly?
Could it be that Qian Renxue saw Su Chen's diary right after Hu Liena returned to Spirit City, wrote this letter in advance, and timed it perfectly to arrive today?
Hu Liena looked up and asked,"Did you read it already?"
Su Chen shook his head seriously."As a young man who's completed nine years of compulsory education, I deeply respect other people's privacy."
Hu Liena didn't fully understand what he meant, but she laughed softly."Then let's open it together and see what Xue'er wrote."
"Ahem."
Su Chen quickly waved his hands."You read it first. If there's nothing problematic inside, then show me."
He definitely couldn't look.
If he read it together with her and found that Qian Renxue mentioned their little scheme of secretly reading his diary... how could he keep pretending to be oblivious later?
He had the advantage right now, after all!
Hu Liena gave him a look, then tore open the letter and began to read. The more she read, the more shocked her expression became.
"Oh my god!"
"Xue'er is incredible!"
Su Chen looked curious."What's up?"
Hu Liena finished the letter, carefully folded it, and explained,"Tang Hao and Tang San actually went to find Xue'er! They wanted to borrow the Heaven Dou Empire's national treasure—the Hanhai Qiankun Zhao."
"But Xue'er played along. On the surface, she told them she'd returned the treasure to the imperial treasury and that they could just retrieve it themselves from the palace. But secretly, she informed Xue Xing and had him set up an ambush. They ended up capturing both Tang Hao and Tang San and throwing them in the dungeon!"
"Also, Yu Xiaogang, Flender, and the others have joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. And Xue'er mentioned Liu Erlong too."
"She said that Yu Xiaogang and his group once went to Blue Tyrant Academy, but Liu Erlong slapped them silly and kicked them out. Then she left Heaven Dou City and disappeared."
Hu Liena was stunned.Su Chen had already written in his diary long ago that Tang San might trigger an early "hack." Sure enough, the guy really went to Heaven Dou City for the Hanhai Qiankun Zhao.
Su Chen's face twitched oddly."At least Qian Renxue didn't try to recruit Tang San this time. As for tossing them in the dungeon, they probably won't stay there long—someone will come to rescue them soon enough."
Hu Liena nodded."Mm. Xue'er said Tang Hao and Tang San came to her through Tang Yuehua's introduction. The Haotian Sect is probably going to make its move soon."
"In that case, Liu Erlong was telling the truth earlier. She's really given up on Yu Xiaogang."
Su Chen nodded slightly."Liu Erlong's still trustworthy. As for your teacher... that's something for later."
"Let's rest early."
Hu Liena's voice was barely audible as she asked,"Just... by myself?"
"I don't know if I can handle it..."
Su Chen reached out and gently pinched her soft cheek."Then let's just hold each other while we sleep. Nothing else."
"Alright!"
Hu Liena nodded firmly.
However...
She soon understood the truth.
When a man says "just sleep holding each other,"When a man says "just cuddling,"When a man says "just once"...
All lies!

Meanwhile—
Yu Xiaogang was about to perform his final service for Bibi Dong.
At that moment—
Yu Xiaogang and Flender had already entered Spirit Hall and checked into a hotel.
Flender lay on the bed, hesitating for a long while before saying,"Xiaogang, if Bibi Dong refuses to see you this time... I don't think we'll be able to leave Spirit City alive."
Yu Xiaogang's expression stayed calm."When have I ever done something I wasn't confident in?"
"My bond with Bibi Dong runs deeper than what I had with Erlong. Do you think she'd ignore me?"
Backfire?
There's no way this can backfire. Not even a little.
"Sigh..."
Flender sighed helplessly."Xiaogang, Xiaogang... you're always so confident. I really don't even know what to say anymore."
Yu Xiaogang's mysterious confidence—it wasn't just talk!
[Instance Rewards Granted...]
[Congratulations, Hu Liena — your name appeared most in the diary! Reward: All spirit rings' age increased by 1,000 years.][Congratulations, Qian Renxue — your name was randomly selected! Reward: Spirit power increased by 1 level.][Congratulations, Ling Yuan — you are the Lucky Viewer! You may choose one diary-related topic.]
At that moment—
Ling Yuan, who had just been about to fall asleep, suddenly brightened up inside.
It's here—it's finally here!
After being a bystander for so long, she finally got her turn to receive a reward!
Indeed—
Ling Yuan wasn't just the third to get a reward; she had never gotten even the first or second rewards before.
At least her charm had paid off once—she had previously received a 30th-level spirit power reward purely from her allure.
Just then—
The door quietly creaked open.
A sneaky figure slipped in.
"Su Chen?"
Ling Yuan didn't get up, just called softly.
"What?!"
The intruder—Huo Wu—pouted."Aunt Ling Yuan, you're still thinking about Su Chen?"
Ling Yuan sat up, smiling dotingly."So it's you, little girl."
Huo Wu climbed into bed beside her and whispered,"Aunt Ling Yuan, congratulations on finally getting a reward."
"Tomorrow's diary will be about you. Are you mentally prepared?"
Ling Yuan chuckled."You know your aunt well. I've lived a spotless, unblemished life. What's there to prepare for?"
Huo Wu thought for a moment, then nodded."That's true. Auntie isn't some love-crazed woman—only focused on cultivation and becoming stronger. You've climbed your way up to Elder of Spirit Hall from nothing. Even compared to Bibi Dong, you're not inferior at all."
