Inside King Wu's Mansion, the situation had become a complete mess, just as it had in the original story.
However, the target of the bone removal had changed.
From a poisonous woman to a poisonous man.
The great karma associated with digging out Shi Hao's Supreme Bone, which Yu Rou couldn't withstand in the original story, now Shi Ziteng couldn't handle either. He was directly killed by a spear from Shi Ziling.
King Wu's Mansion, the Shi Yi lineage, the Rain King's Mansion, and even the Rain and Wu Two Kings, all became accomplices.
The Imperial Family remained on the sidelines throughout the entire affair.
The Human Emperor of the Shi Kingdom knew everything, yet took no action.
He didn't even come forward to express his stance.
Let alone speak up for Shi Ziling's family.
With his status and strength.
Not making a statement was the same as acquiescence.
Acquiescence meant agreement.
He was clearly on Shi Yi's side at the moment.
Only Shi Yi's mother and Yu Zimo managed to escape, and they gave Shi Ziling's family a considerable amount of help, which dispelled some of Shi Hao's family's hatred towards them.
Ning Fan knew all of this.
It was because he was in the Imperial Capital of Shi Kingdom, and the commotion caused by this matter was quite significant. It was difficult to avoid being investigated by those with ulterior motives, so he couldn't help but know.
I, Ning Fan, am back!
What were they saying before?
This world is dangerous, not a place for humans.
Now, I just want to say, this world is wonderful! Look, the sky is so blue, so blue, much better than the smog during the day and the lack of stars at night.
The wildflowers by the roadside smell so fragrant, the stones are so cool, the sky, the earth… this beautiful new world!
There's eternal life, immense power, and countless fairies. This world is exactly where a handsome, dashing, and heroic man like me should be.
Here we go!
I just said I wanted to get stronger, and haven't I already done it?
With the Double Pupils and six pieces of Supreme Bone, it's hard for me not to become strong.
Ugh, this damned strength, this, this, this… who stuffed it into my body?
Now I'm also a Primordial, a peerless genius with both Double Pupils and Supreme Bone. What about Shi Yi and Shi Hao? What about Ningchuan Son of Heaven and the Exiled Immortal? They're all just little brothers in front of me!
I was a mechanical watch. Before I transmigrated, I bought it on Pinduoduo for the grand sum of 9.9 yuan. I didn't expect it to be worth a fortune in this fantasy world, enough to cover my first Blood Mobilization Realm medicinal bath.
Well, although I have some strength now, I'm still far from being able to eat beef and have the strength to protect all the fairies in the world, giving them a warm home. The philosophy of "playing it safe" can't be abandoned just yet!
After all, I only have the power of Tang Buddha at the moment. Even with all my methods, I can only deal with his mother's embrace.
The Diary vibrated.
Myriad Realms and Myriad Races, the fairies from Various Sects and Myriad Teachings, all took out their Diaries to read, and they were astonished.
They knew that Ning Fan, who wrote the Diary, would receive rewards.
But they didn't know the rewards would be so generous.
It wasn't enough to reward him with Double Pupils; he also received the Supreme Bone, and six pieces at that!
Double Pupils were already incredibly heaven-defying.
To possess them meant an infinitely bright future on the path of cultivation.
According to ancient history, Double Pupils had only appeared twice in the countless ages.
The first person to possess them was no longer known.
But the second one was a figure from ancient times, who had lived safely until now. The outside world called her the Ancient Double-Pupiled Woman, a supremely powerful Dunyijing Realm sect leader.
And the Supreme Bone.
The literal meaning was the bones of a supreme being, naturally formed and bestowed upon those lucky ones favored by the world's fortune.
With the Supreme Bone, one was destined to become a supreme being, appointed by the heavens.
Even among the Primodials of the upper realms, they were not weak.
As long as there were no accidents and they could grow steadily, becoming a supreme being would definitely not be difficult.
What kind of heaven-defying object was this diary system?
Not only did it reward this guy with Double Pupils, but it also rewarded him with the Supreme Bone, giving him a ridiculous six pieces.
"Just how powerful will this guy's talent become…?"
"Is this really a talent that a person should have?"
Looking at the contents of the diary, the women's eyes turned red with jealousy. What was even more infuriating was Ning Fan's casual boasting, making them want to rush over and beat him up.
If this diary didn't have a significant background, and if they hadn't tested it by getting close to the red line, they would have found Ning Fan to seize this opportunity.
It was a pity that this diary couldn't be exposed, nor could the person who possessed the diary be harmed.
"This guy is so shameless!"
In the Fire Country's harem, the loli-bodied Huo Linger was extremely dissatisfied with Ning Fan's behavior of taking advantage and still acting like he was wronged. She pouted her little mouth in anger, tears of extreme envy flowing down.
"This lecher has a connection with my Butian Sect."
In the upper realm, on the back mountain of the Butian Sect, in a bamboo forest, the young girl Yuechan was swinging on a swing, murmuring to herself as she looked at the diary.
Within the Jietian Sect, a great distance from the Butian Sect.
The black-robed enchantress, already well-versed in human nature, had schemed against a group of sycophants within the sect and allowed the plundered treasures to be strewn about haphazardly.
She lay sprawled on a precious rug made from the hide of a divine beast.
She covered her chin with both hands, swinging her pristine white feet as she gazed at the open Diary.
"Interesting!"
Ning Fan, realizing there was nothing to write about.
He couldn't help but start complaining, remembering the events at King Wu's Mansion.
"Speaking of which, so frustrating!"
"Shi Hao's Supreme Bone was still dug out."
It's just that, what's rather strange is, wasn't it Shi Yi's mother who was killed after the bone was dug out? Now, it's actually Shi Yi's father, Shi Ziteng, who has been killed!
It seems that the wings I, the transmigrator, have flapped are quite powerful, actually causing such a huge amount of karma.
This change is too big.
The one who had their bone dug out actually turned out to be Shi Yi's father!
The bone-digging incident is over. Next, it's Shi Hao's parents taking his body, which has regressed into that of an infant, leaving him barely clinging to life, and desperately seeking medical help.
They will travel from the Shi Kingdom's Second Ancestral Land to the First Ancestral Land.
Then, Shi Hao will join Stone Village, relying on Old Patriarch Shi Yunfeng to feed him beast milk. He will be favored by the Immortal King giant Willow Deity, who is recovering from a near-death experience, and from then on, he will begin his heaven-defying, legendary life.
Meanwhile, Shi Ziling and his wife will continue their journey, traveling from various ancient sacred mountains, across the Wild Region, and throughout the world to find a cure for Shi Hao.
[After failing, he returned to Bulao Mountain in the Xuan Region and was imprisoned. Then, they believed Shi Hao was dead and raised a second child, Qin Hao, pouring all their love for Shi Hao onto him.]
Ning Fan naturally knew the Diary's quirks and that the diary would be read, but he wouldn't expose it even if he knew.
The content he wrote shocked countless fairies.
Apart from those directly involved, the others didn't react much, treating it as entertainment, like a novel.
However, Qin Yining and Yu Rou were extremely concerned.
Qin Yining, seeing the Diary reveal her future plans and itinerary in advance, was immediately alarmed.
"How can this be?"
Because it was exactly what she had discussed with Shi Ziling.
The key thing was that they were wasting their efforts, running around everywhere, and ultimately being imprisoned by Bulao Mountain.
She couldn't understand why her own family would act like this.
However, the good news was that Shi Hao wouldn't be in any danger. The Old Patriarch in the First Ancestral Land had done Shi Hao a great favor, and the Sacrificial Spirit was also an unimaginably powerful being who would value Shi Hao.
Shi Yi's mother, Yu Rou, was utterly shocked. She hadn't expected such a peerless powerhouse to exist in the First Ancestral Land, and that they would value her nephew, Shi Hao.
"So that's how it is! So that's how it is… This explains everything, including everything revealed in the Diary, including Shi Hao's extraordinary future."
Now, instead of wanting to take his bones, she had a complex feeling towards Shi Hao because of the Diary.
On one hand, she wanted to be on Shi Hao's good side; on the other hand, she wanted to save her son and prevent a tragic future for Shi Yi.
Although, through the Diary, she had learned the phrase, 'Double Pupils pave the invincible path; why borrow another's bone?', she also felt that the bone shouldn't have been taken.
But because her knowledge was limited, and Shi Yi was still her own son, she did her best to help Shi Hao's family, leaning towards them, just to make up for Shi Yi's mistakes.
Inevitably, she still felt a sliver of relief for Shi Yi, that he possessed Double Pupils and had also obtained the Supreme Bone, such a divine treasure.
She also felt a trace of gratitude towards her incapable husband, Shi Ziteng.
However, the recent content in the Diary shattered all her fantasies and destroyed all her relief.
She knew that the bone excavation was truly wrong.
An Immortal King! Just how powerful was this realm? Just hearing the word "Immortal" was enough to know that to be taught by such a powerful being was the true great opportunity!
And this opportunity belonged only to Shi Hao.
Her Yi'er, because of the bone excavation, had missed out on it forever, and even with Double Pupils and the Supreme Bone, he couldn't compare to this opportunity.
She was only envious, left with only blessings for her nephew, Shi Hao, and no jealousy.
Or rather, she couldn't bring herself to be jealous.
Good fortune relies on bad, and bad fortune lurks within good.
Hadn't she heard that the unimaginable powerhouse was in nirvana?
They were on different paths. Even if they sent Yi over, the powerhouse might not even look at him, and instead, it might cause offense.
How she wished it was Shi Yi who was being harmed right now!
She would rather Shi Hao had dug out Shi Yi's Double Pupils.
Then, he would have obtained such a great opportunity.
Unfortunately, fate determined one's opportunities; forcing it wouldn't work.
"That's not right! As a mother, how can I think like that? Yi'er can't suffer the pain of having his eyes gouged out. I'd rather he be safe and sound than suffer such torment, a fate worse than death!"
Yu Rou immediately cut off that thought.
At this moment, the Diary began to vibrate, updating once more.
[Hmm? I didn't see it. Today's diary actually has a theme! It's going to be about Shi Hao!]
Qin Yining saw that Ning Fan was finally going to write about Shi Hao.
Her anxious heart slowly began to relax.
Then, a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes, displeased that this lecherous pervert who coveted her had taken so long to notice the theme she'd set.
"I knew Hao'er would be the protagonist, but I don't know exactly what he went through in his life."
Qin Yining was very curious about the upcoming content, her expression becoming serious and her mood very tense.
At the same time, the other women reading the diary were also extremely curious about the future of this so-called Son of Heaven.
They were all waiting to see, just like Qin Yining, taking it very seriously.
[Shi Hao, the protagonist of this world, is also the Son of Heaven.]
[He also has a name that is almost familiar to everyone in the Myriad Realms and Myriad Races, including the world I came from before I transmigrated.]
[Emperor Huang!]
[Some say that Emperor Huang is Shi Hao, but Shi Hao is not Emperor Huang, he is just a drop of blood from Emperor Huang, a drop of blood that Emperor Huang scattered throughout the ages using the Otherworldly Freedom Technique…]
