Chapter 4: That Rogue Rabbit—You're Not Talking About Me, Are You?
"Could it be… that this world is really nothing more than a novel?"
An unprecedented sense of absurdity and fear crawled up Bibi Dong's spine in an instant.
At the same time, across every corner of the Douluo Continent, countless identical black diaries quietly appeared before those daughters of destiny.
Heaven Dou Empire, Crown Prince's Residence.
Disguised as Xue Qinghe, Qian Renxue had just finished handling a mountain of memorials and was about to rub her aching temples.
A black notebook abruptly appeared on the desk in front of her.
[Qian Renxue's Diary Copy]
"Hmm? Who dares act so recklessly inside my study?!"
Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes sharpened as she instinctively prepared to summon Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo.
But in the next moment, after reading the rules and flipping open the first page of the diary—
This "Crown Prince," usually gentle, refined, and unshaken even if Mount Tai collapsed before her, suddenly began trembling violently, letting out completely unladylike, goose-like laughter.
"HAHAHAHA! Crazy woman? Bibi Dong is a crazy woman?!"
"Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"
"Lin Yuan, was it? Just for that one line alone, this young lady approves of you!"
Qian Renxue laughed so hard that tears nearly streamed down her face.
Her relationship with Bibi Dong was like fire and water. Seeing someone dare to ridicule that lofty, untouchable Pope in such a way made her feel refreshed from head to toe, as if someone had finally vented her long-held resentment.
But as she laughed, the sound abruptly stopped.
Her golden pupils locked onto the words "Rakshasa God Inheritance," contracting sharply.
"Rakshasa God… that woman is actually undergoing a God's trial?"
Because of her special identity, Qian Renxue knew very well that gods truly existed in this world!
For example, the Angel God worshipped by the Qian clan!
But—
When did Bibi Dong obtain the Rakshasa God trial?
Why had she never known about it?
Did Grandfather know?
Just who exactly was this Lin Yuan?
And how many people possessed diary copies like this?
Questions flooded Qian Renxue's mind.
"No wonder she's become more and more extreme, more and more abnormal over the years."
"And this Lin Yuan says the world is a novel?"
Qian Renxue stood up with her hands behind her back. The playfulness in her eyes gradually faded, replaced by solemnity.
If she wanted to verify whether Lin Yuan's diary entries were true or false, she would probably have to start with Bibi Dong herself.
But her relationship with Bibi Dong was terrible—one could even say hostile.
Even if she asked directly, would Bibi Dong admit it?
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, inside a boudoir.
"Bastard! Who's pulling this prank?!"
Ning Rongrong jumped in fright as she stared at the suddenly appearing diary.
She was the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, spoiled since childhood—who would dare toy with her like this?
But when she saw the words "novel world," the little witch's eyes instantly lit up.
"If this really is a novel world, then that means I'm definitely the female lead, right?"
Ning Rongrong puffed out her still-underdeveloped chest proudly, taking it for granted.
"After all, a girl as pretty as me, with such a powerful background—if I'm not the female lead, then who is?"
Of course, no matter how clever and mischievous she was, Ning Rongrong didn't truly believe her world was just a story.
If that were the case, then what was she?
Wasn't she a living, breathing person?
This world was far too real!
But soon after, she read Lin Yuan's rant about Su Yuntao.
"Pfft—Blind Douluo?"
"This guy's mouth is vicious… but I like it!"
Ning Rongrong curled her lips in disdain, her interest clearly piqued.
Finally, her gaze landed on the words "God-Killing Spear" and "Double Pupils."
"Twin god-grade martial souls? Really?"
"Is this Lin Yuan bragging without shame?"
"Even Grandpa Sword's Seven Kill Sword doesn't dare call itself a god-level martial soul."
"Hmph! When I get the chance, I have to go to Nuoding City and take a look. If you dare lie to me, I'll have Grandpa Bone tear your bones apart!"
Though she claimed not to believe it, deep down, Ning Rongrong had already developed a strong curiosity about this never-before-seen "Lin Yuan."
Spirit City, Spirit Hall Academy.
Hu Liena was holding a book on how to strengthen spiritual power, hoping to enhance her charm abilities.
Unfortunately, books like these didn't have particularly great effects.
When the diary appeared, her first reaction was enemy infiltration. After realizing it couldn't be destroyed, she could only grit her teeth and read on.
After finishing it, the Spirit Hall Saintess was so furious that her chest heaved violently, her pretty face flushed red.
"Outrageous!"
"This bastard Lin Yuan actually dares to slander my teacher like this!"
"Crazy woman? Psychopath? I think you're a psychopath!"
Hu Liena idolized Bibi Dong above all else, regarding her as a mother figure. How could she tolerate someone insulting her teacher so viciously?
She wished she could rush to Nuoding City right now and tear Lin Yuan's mouth apart!
But as her anger slowly subsided and reason returned—
Looking at those lines in the diary, a trace of doubt inevitably arose in her heart.
"Rakshasa God inheritance… evil and resentment…"
"Teacher has indeed become more and more unpredictable lately. Sometimes her gaze is so terrifying that even I feel fear."
"Could it be…"
"Is what Lin Yuan says actually true?"
"No! Impossible! The teacher is perfect!"
Hu Liena shook her head, trying to fling this terrifying thought out of her mind.
But once the seed of doubt was planted, it could never truly be eradicated.
"Lin Yuan, is it?"
"Just you wait!"
"I'll definitely verify whether what you wrote is true or false!"
Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy, central plaza.
The delicate and adorable Xiao Wu had just finished her enrollment procedures. She was holding a carrot in her hand, cheeks puffed as she chewed.
Suddenly, a black notebook appeared before her eyes.
Xiao Wu was so startled that her rabbit ears twitched.
"What's this?! You scared this rabbit to death!"
She cautiously flipped it open. When she saw that Lin Yuan had awakened twin god-level martial souls and was also enrolled at Nuoding Academy, her face filled with confusion and curiosity.
"Do such monstrous martial souls really exist in this world?"
"And the Pope of Spirit Hall actually possesses a god's inheritance… Could the Spirit Hall person who killed my mother have been this Pope?"
She only knew that the one who killed her mother came from Spirit Hall, but she didn't know who it was exactly.
"And this diary mentions a rogue rabbit… he's not talking about me, is he?"
Xiao Wu's intuition told her that the hooligan rabbit Lin Yuan mentioned was referring to her.
"How was I a rogue?!"
This was pure slander!
This made her so angry that the carrot in her hand instantly lost all appeal. She put it away and stormed off toward Dorm Seven.
She hoped she wouldn't run into this guy at Nuoding Academy—
Otherwise, he'd be in for it!
"I'd like to see whether this so-called god-level martial soul is really that strong!"

Meanwhile,
Following the instructions, Lin Yuan arrived at Dorm Seven.
However, the moment he pushed open the door—
A fist flew straight toward his face!
Lin Yuan: ???
