C18 The Heart Devouring Bead Had Flared Up.

"No, it's nothing!"

"I just think Eldest Senior Brother looks especially handsome today!"

Chen Qingwei beamed with a sunny smile.

Her cheeks were stretched to the limit with glee.

Luckily, Chen Qingwei was an exceptionally beautiful girl.

Her expression didn't betray any awkwardness; instead, it brought her to life even more.

Ye Ning shook his head and muttered, "How bizarre."

"Senior Brother, what did Master tell you?"

Chen Qingwei was brimming with curiosity.

"Master mentioned you're too lazy and not diligent enough in your cultivation."

"I'm quite concerned."

"Uh, okay... I should've known Master wouldn't have anything nice to say." Chen Qingwei pouted, clearly dissatisfied with her Master.

"That doesn't make sense. Why would such a short message take so long?"

Wow, this girl's got sharp wits.

She's caught on to the inconsistency.

Ye Ning replied straightforwardly, "There were other matters, of course."

"What? What are they?"

Chen Qingwei wondered, "Did Master want Eldest Senior Brother to challenge that Eldest Senior Brother from Swiftglades?"

Had her mention of king against king sparked this idea in Master's mind?

After all, Master was always such a formidable woman!

Ye Ning was at a loss for words. How could he possibly share the details of his 'espionage' with Master?

He blurted out, "Master said, Qingwei, you're grown up now. It's time for you to get married."

"Pfft, Senior Brother, you're the one who should be getting married!"

She pressed a hand to her nose and playfully stuck out her tongue, "Nyah nyah nyah!"

"Eldest Senior Brother, you're such a fibber!"

"Hmph, I'm done talking to you. I'm off to cultivate."

For Chen Qingwei, cultivation was no laughing matter.

In that moment, she was the picture of joy, heading straight for her courtyard.

Watching Chen Qingwei's retreating figure, Ye Ning's eyes suddenly tinged red.

In his mind's eye, he saw her in a vibrant red wedding dress, sitting on the edge of a bed.

Lifting her veil, she smiled and said, "Eldest Senior Brother, shall I help you dress...?"

That vision...

"Damn it, Heart Devouring Bead!"

The Heart Devouring Bead was wreaking havoc once more.

"Hmph, I'm not that Ye Ning. As a man with sound principles, you can't control me, even if I don't keep a diary."

Ye Ning had clearly underestimated the Heart Devouring Bead's influence.

No sooner had he spoken than the scene before him shifted again.

This time, it was his Master who appeared...

Master's figure was voluptuous, and her movements carried an unspeakable sensuality.

"Damn!"

Ye Ning was dumbfounded.

This cursed Heart Devouring Bead was truly vile!

To think it could conjure up such scenarios.

"Amitabha, Amitabha... No, wait, Boundless Heavenly Lord, Boundless Heavenly Lord."

Ye Ning rushed back to his room.

The Heart Devouring Bead's effects were unbearable.

He needed to write in his diary, and fast!

In that moment, he found a newfound respect for the original Ye Ning.

Despite the Heart Devouring Bead's power, he had managed to resist its pull until the later stages of the Devil Dao.

He had maintained self-control most of the time.

That was truly impressive.

...

Just then!

"Eldest Senior Brother, Eldest Senior Brother..."

A familiar voice reached him; it was Chiang Yun.

Master had summoned Eldest Senior Brother for a discussion. As an outer sect disciple, she naturally didn't have the clearance to enter the hall.

She had been waiting outside all along, keeping watch over Ye Ning.

"I!"

Ye Ning found himself at a loss for words.

Because at that moment, Chiang Yun, donned in a red dragon and phoenix bridal gown, was running toward him.

"Junior Sister Yun, I, your Senior Brother, have urgent matters. Whatever it is, let's discuss it tomorrow."

With that, Ye Ning quickly made his way back to his courtyard.

But on the way, Ye Ning encountered someone else.

"Martial Nephew Ye!"

Damn, it was Elder Lin Youde!

And damn it again, why was Elder Lin Youde also wearing red?

Ye Ning was utterly bewildered.

...

Eventually, Ye Ning made it back to his courtyard just in time.

"Goodness, how am I going to get through these days!"

And why is it that I can only write in my diary when I'm alone?

He had thought he could simply find a corner and write immediately.

But the issue was that Ye Ning was too popular!

As soon as he left the High Clarity Hall, a crowd of disciples came to pay their respects.

Even the elders were eager to join in.

...

"The might of the Heart Devouring Bead is truly formidable!"

Now at the Golden Core Stage, he still couldn't withstand it.

Without the Golden Finger Diary, the Heart Devouring Bead would be an insurmountable challenge.

"Write now, write immediately!"

A challenge letter was no big deal; Jiang Feng was merely a thief, hardly worth a second thought!

Today, my Master's demeanor was far more pleasant than yesterday.

Indeed, our Master is the epitome of beauty, perfectly blending authority with softness.

And when she wears the phoenix coronet and robes, her beauty is unparalleled!

Still, Master's mood remains perilous, and I must tread with utmost caution.

Sigh, the tumultuous plot is about to unfold!

Yet in the illusions cast by the Heart Devouring Bead, there was undeniable beauty.

Today, Qingwei's performance was commendable.

She looked truly stunning in her bridal attire.

Reflecting further, Ye Ning's thoughts turned to Chiang Yun.

Chiang Yun seeking me out for guidance is a positive sign, especially since she has every reason to despise me.

With earnest attention, the diary entry was completed.

In a flash, the adverse effects of the Heart Devouring Bead vanished.

The world regained its wondrous hues.

...

"Let's just rest now."

I must adhere to the principle of balancing work with rest.

So, Ye Ning closed his diary and began to cultivate as he drifted off to sleep.

The system's rewards would come later, promising another bounty.

Truly delightful.

...

Jin Lingzi sat in quiet meditation within the grand hall.

She was quite content with her dialogue with Ye Ning today.

Ning was a bit anxious, but that stemmed from her abrupt shift in attitude the other day.

But that had significantly lessened.

This was an encouraging development.

Just then!

A flash of gold sparked in her mind.

Jin Lingzi instantly recognized what had occurred!

"It's Ning; Ning is writing in his diary again."

She began to read the diary with great attention.

"Today's diary entry is quite thorough."

Receiving a challenge letter was trivial; Jiang Feng was nothing more than a petty thief, unworthy of concern!

Upon reading this, Jin Lingzi couldn't help but smile.

She mused, "Indeed, Ning possesses celestial talent; he wouldn't fret over someone like Jiang Feng."

"But a thief..."

Hmph!

Does Swiftglades truly take me, Jin Lingzi, for a fool?

Jin Lingzi nodded in approval of Ye Ning while continuing to peruse the diary.
