Douluo Continent: I'm writing a diary, and something's not right with you guys.

Those four words in the diary pierced her heart.

Yes, her father threw her into this unfamiliar era, subjecting her to hardships, all so that she could get closer to the chosen one of this world and reap the fortune of the entire continent for him.

But her younger brother was safely placed ten thousand years later, grew up smoothly, and eventually possessed power enough to shake the divine realm.

It turns out that in the eyes of that high and mighty father, she and her younger brother were of different weight from the very beginning.

A bitter smile appeared on Wang Dong'er's lips. Although she had long since given up much expectation for her father, whom she had never met and who only used her as a pawn, she was filled with hatred.

But at this moment, I couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow and an unprecedented hatred welling up in my heart.

The far north.

A knowing glint flashed in Xue Di's icy blue eyes.

It turns out that this Tang Wulin is from ten thousand years in the future.

Ten thousand years is an eternity for humans who live only a day and die in a day, a time that ten generations cannot traverse. But for these soul beasts who have lived for hundreds of thousands of years, it is merely a fleeting moment.

But as soon as that thought crossed my mind, new doubts immediately arose.

wrong.

Wang Dong'er, Tang San's daughter, and Tang Wulin are siblings born of the same mother.

Since they are blood-related siblings, why place the daughter in the present, ten thousand years ago, and the son in the future? This is completely illogical.

Xue Di frowned slightly.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and a chilling idea instantly entered her consciousness.

time.

It's time.

According to Lin Ye's diary, there was a full 10,000-year gap between Douluo I and Douluo II; and a similar 10,000-year gap between Douluo II and Douluo III.

It has been exactly ten thousand years.

Tang San himself, in the era of Douluo Continent I, became the God King of the God Realm by his own strength and began to plan for Douluo Continent.

Ten thousand years later, he sent his daughter to the era of Douluo II, which is now, so that she could get close to the chosen one of this era and bring the fortune of the entire continent back into the hands of the Tang family.

Ten thousand years later, in Douluo III, he sent his son there again to continue reaping the fortune of the next ten thousand years.

Every ten thousand years, they send one of their own people to harvest a batch of the continent's fortune to nourish the Tang family's power and status!

The moment the thought was fully realized, Xue Di felt a bone-chilling cold rush from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

She had lived for hundreds of thousands of years and had seen countless treacherous, cunning, greedy, and selfish humans, but she had never seen anyone so calculating.

They treated the entire continent, and even the entire divine realm, as their own possession, and laid out such a grand scheme over tens of thousands of years.

Now she understood why Lin Ye harbored such resentment and a sense of crisis towards Tang San. It wasn't that Tang San was targeting Lin Ye, nor that Lin Ye was targeting Tang San; rather, the two were natural adversaries.

Although Hyotei's mind works a little slowly, she is not stupid. A soul beast that can cultivate to this level cannot be stupid.

She was about to tell Xue Di about her discovery when she turned around and saw that Xue Di's expression was equally unpleasant, even more so than his.

She instantly understood that Xue Di had already thought of it, and even earlier than she had.

"Xue'er, did you think of that too?"

Hyotei cautiously inquired, afraid of disturbing Yuki-tei's thoughts.

Xue Di didn't speak, but simply nodded, her expression returning to calm.

Chapter 42 A Chance Encounter with Two Female Leads

Lin Ye, carrying his luggage, stood side by side with Wang Dong'er at the door of dormitory 108. With a gentle push, the door opened.

Lin Ye glanced at the empty dormitory, then turned to look at Wang Dong'er beside him. He was about to offer to help her make her bed and pack her things when he saw the girl beside him already getting to work.

Wang Dong'er's movements were incredibly nimble, showing absolutely no signs of being a pampered young lady.

She placed her luggage on the lower bunk by the window and began making the bed. In no time, the bed was made perfectly flat, with even the edges neatly smoothed.

Lin Ye's hand, which was halfway raised, froze in mid-air, and he was a little dumbfounded.

He truly hadn't expected this to happen.

After all, in the original story, Wang Dong'er was a truly pampered princess, proud and a little willful. Let alone making the bed or tidying up, she probably wouldn't even pour herself a glass of water.

He was prepared to handle everything before he came, but the other person not only managed to do it all, but did so incredibly quickly.

What he didn't expect was yet to come.

After tidying up her own bed, Wang Dong'er didn't even catch her breath before turning around and walking to his bedside. She picked up his luggage from the table and began to tidy it up for him naturally.

He folded clothes, made the bed, and put away miscellaneous items with practiced ease. In just a few minutes, his bed and desk were tidied up perfectly, even better than if he had done it himself.

Lin Ye stood there, staring wide-eyed.

[Oh my god! Did I travel to the wrong place? Where did the aloof Wang Dong'er from the original story go? Why is she making my bed and stuff?]

Could it be because we're both from the Haotian Sect? Does she feel a greater sense of familiarity and closeness towards me compared to others?

That's probably it. I thought she was the kind of pampered young lady who never lifted a finger, and I was even prepared to make her bed. I never expected this!

Wang Dong'er, who was putting things away, froze.

She paused for a moment with her back to Lin Ye, but quickly regained her composure, as if the pause had been just an illusion.

Wang Dong'er gently bit her lip, cursing the guy who was secretly gossiping about her eight hundred times in her heart.

You bastard Lin Ye!

I kindly helped you pack your things, and you not only didn't appreciate it, but you even talked about me like that behind my back?

What spoiled princess? What pampered and unruly person? So, in your mind, that's exactly how you see me—spoiled and unreasonable?

She felt both annoyed and amused. If she hadn't figured out this guy's personality during the time they spent together, and knew that Lin Ye was all bark and no bite, cold on the outside but warm on the inside, she wouldn't have bothered with his trivial matters.

Wang Dong'er took a deep breath, turned around, and wore a perfectly timed, faint smile, as if nothing had just happened: "I'm all packed up. See if there's anything else that needs adjusting?"

Lin Ye then came to his senses, waved his hand, and said with a little embarrassment, "No need, no need, it's already very good. Thank you for your trouble. I should have helped you tidy up."

He was genuinely a little uncomfortable.

Wang Dong'er snorted inwardly, but didn't show it on her face. She simply shook her head and said, "Well, it's nothing troublesome."

The dormitory was quiet for a few seconds. Lin Ye looked at the bustling campus outside the window, and an idea struck him. He took the initiative to invite, "Want to go out for a walk? Let's get familiar with the campus environment."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong'er looked up at him in surprise.

Is this still the Lin Ye she knows?

Aside from the heartfelt words in her diary, after these past few days of interacting with Lin Ye in real life, she knew his personality all too well.

He appears aloof and doesn't like to talk. He seems distant from everyone, a typical example of someone who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

Most of the time, she would initiate the conversation, and he would chime in with a few words, but he rarely spoke up, let alone invited her to join in.

Is the sun rising in the west today?

Despite her surprise, Wang Dong'er nodded almost immediately, a barely perceptible smile flashing in her eyes: "Great, I'd also like to see Shrek Academy."

The two walked out of the freshman dormitory building side by side.

As soon as he stepped out of the building, Lin Ye's gaze seemed to be drawn by something, uncontrollably drifting towards the old man lying in a rocking chair sunbathing not far from the dormitory entrance.

He had already cursed himself countless times in his heart.

Before he came, he had warned himself countless times: never look at Moon! Never stare at that old man at the door!

But that's how some things are. When you don't know the truth, you can face it calmly, but once you know the old man's true identity...

The Sea God Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy, Limit Douluo, Dragon God Douluo Mu En, is one of the people standing at the very top of the entire Douluo Continent.

You simply can't control your gaze!

Just like knowing that spoilers would affect the viewing experience, but still being unable to resist watching the ending, that mix of curiosity and awe made his gaze fall on the seemingly ordinary old man again and again.

Moon, who was sitting in the rocking chair, slightly moved his eyes, which had been closed.

His senses were far sharper than those of ordinary people, and he naturally noticed the several gazes that were falling on him one after another.

With a quick glance, I sensed the source of the gaze: the little guy who had just entered the dormitory building.

This little guy is interesting.

Mu En pondered to himself that he could sense that the child's soul power was not weak, far exceeding the level of his peers.

What's even stranger is that the child looked at him with a mixture of awe and understanding, as if he knew everything about him. This is not the kind of look a normal freshman should have.

Moon lay in his rocking chair, his old face squinting as he looked at the sky, a glint of light flashing in his cloudy eyes.

Lin Ye finally pulled his gaze away from Mu En, breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but start thinking about other things.

He noticed this when he entered the dormitory: room 108 only had two beds, making it a true double room.

He had been completely misled by his preconceived notions from the original work, always thinking that Shrek Academy's freshmen dormitories were all four-person rooms, and he was prepared to be Huo Yuhao's roommate.

Now, things have gotten worse; he and Wang Dong'er are occupying this dormitory room, and there are no extra beds available.

What about Huo Yuhao?
