At this moment, Xiao Wu was holding a carrot, but she couldn't bring herself to eat it.
Her body was stiff as a stone, her face pale, and cold sweat dripped down her forehead.
Because she had read the last paragraph of the diary.
[However, if I remember correctly, Tang Hao is also secretly following. If Tang San really can't defeat the Datura Snake later, he should intervene.]
[You know, Tang Hao is the youngest Titled Douluo on the continent, with the title Clear Sky!]
[He wouldn't be foolish enough to let Tang San absorb a ten-year spirit ring. The age limit of a spirit ring, to some extent, determines the upper limit of a Spirit Master.]
[If the first spirit ring is a white spirit ring, then the upper limit is basically locked. For others, it's impossible to become a Titled Douluo in this life, even with Innate Full Spirit Power!]
[Although Tang Hao said he would entrust Tang San to Yu Xiaogang and gave him the Spirit Hall honorary Elder token, he had been secretly observing Tang San during his six years at Nuoding Academy.]
[Perhaps he left midway, but a long absence would probably only happen after Tang San went to Shrek Academy.]
"Clang!"
The carrot in Xiao Wu's hand fell onto the plate, making a sound, but she couldn't care less.
"There's a Titled Douluo near Nuoding Academy?"
Xiao Wu felt a chill shoot from the soles of her feet straight to the top of her head.
Why would a Titled Douluo appear in such a small town!
If Tang Hao had been watching in secret all this time, wouldn't that mean her true form had long been exposed right under a Titled Douluo's nose?!
"It's over, it's over!"
"I've walked right into a trap!"
Xiao Wu looked around in terror, as if a pair of terrifying eyes were hidden in the surrounding air, staring intently at her, this "walking Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast spirit ring and Spirit Bone package."
"Calm down! Xiao Wu, you need to calm down!"
Xiao Wu's mood plummeted, and even the carrot lost its appeal.
Then, Xiao Wu secretly glanced at Lin Yuan, and a strong will to survive suddenly surged within her.
She hadn't avenged her mother yet; she couldn't die!
"This pervert Lin Yuan, since he knows all this, can still eat calmly. He even dared to release his Spirit and compete with Tang San just now, so he must have a trump card!"
Therefore, her only way out now was to quickly cling to Lin Yuan's leg.
Perhaps the diary instance would give her a reward for solving this matter?
And Xiao Wu's subtle movements all fell into Lin Yuan's eyes.
He had, of course, deliberately written this matter into the diary.
This was also to make Xiao Wu restrain herself a bit and let her know that if she wanted to survive, the best way was to rely on him.
Or to appear around him more often, to see if she could get any rewards from the System.
Of course, he currently had no way to deal with Tang Hao.
But he was highly skilled and daring.
As long as he didn't have any violent conflicts with Tang San, just normal interactions, and even subtly expressed his dislike for Spirit Hall.
What do you think Tang Hao would do?
He hated Spirit Hall, and Lin Yuan also hated Spirit Hall. The enemy of my enemy is my friend!
Tang San had twin spirits, and to get revenge on Spirit Hall in the future, he would need a team of geniuses.
And he was just right for that!
As for being a little closer to Xiao Wu?
Actually, it wasn't a big problem.
After all, unless Xiao Wu was willing to sacrifice herself to Tang San, Tang Hao could only act against Xiao Wu after Tang San reached the Spirit Saint or even Spirit Douluo stage.
Why not keep her captive?
Because he didn't have that much time. As long as he could confirm that he, Xiao Wu, and Tang San would likely act together in the future, Tang Hao wouldn't bother with too much.
Instead, he would let Tang San develop freely.
Moreover, he had the System, and the System would definitely give him something to protect himself.
It was only the first day; Tang Hao hadn't seen anything yet, so he wouldn't be in such a hurry to act.
As for whether the System would give rewards to characters with diary instances?
Does that even need to be said?
Lin Yuan was 100% sure there would be!
However, he didn't really care about this either.
After all, they were all his people. Giving them rewards was equivalent to improving their self-preservation abilities, preventing them from being too far removed from him.
Moreover, with the diary rules in place, could these people with diary instances even lay a hand on him?
If they accidentally violated the diary rules, not only the rewards but also their memories would be taken back.
Xiao Wu: You big bad guy, you still say you're not a pervert?
All the girls: We just have diary instances, and you already consider us your possessions?
Lin Yuan said, "Beautiful ladies are what gentlemen pursue."
Since he had Transmigrated, if he didn't have some high-Appearance women, wouldn't it be a waste of the Transmigration?
As for whether they were just pretty faces, Lin Yuan didn't consider it.
He had the System, so his own strength would definitely improve quickly. Could he still expect them to block attacks for him?
Even someone like Ning Rongrong, who had Sect power behind her, he wouldn't care too much about.
Having it was just a bonus.
Not having it was also fine.
After all, he wanted the person, not the Sect behind them.
With the System, even a pretty face could be improved.
Lin Yuan first cared about their looks, and then whether their values could be twisted to his liking.
If they could be twisted, then why not take them?
If they couldn't, or even disgusted him, then he couldn't bring himself to do it.
Lin Yuan looked at Xiao Wu, whose small face had lost its rosy color, and knowingly asked, even reaching out to touch her forehead: "What's wrong? Are you suddenly feeling unwell?"
Xiao Wu did not evade Lin Yuan's touch.
In fact, the moment his warm palm rested on her, she felt a long-lost sense of security.
It was like finally finding a safe harbor in a storm.
"No... no..."
Xiao Wu shook her head frantically, her big, watery eyes a little moist, looking pitiful and charming, making people want to cherish (or bully) her.
"I don't know, I just suddenly feel a bit cold. Can we go back to the dorm together after dinner?"
Seeing the somewhat frightened Xiao Wu, Lin Yuan secretly chuckled. It seemed the effect had been achieved.
However, he felt he had played a bit too much. He couldn't stand to see people cry.
Unless it was because of him—crying.
"Alright."
Lin Yuan stood up, walked to Xiao Wu's side, and gently ruffled her head, messing up her neatly braided Scorpion Braid a little.
"Let's go, back to the dorm to rest a bit."
Xiao Wu was a little embarrassed, her face flushed, and she said, "My, my legs are a bit soft..."
How embarrassing!
A dignified Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast was so scared she couldn't even walk!
Lin Yuan looked at her pitiful appearance and sighed helplessly.
"Such a bother."
He complained with his mouth, but his body was honest.
He turned around, half-squatted, and patted his shoulder.
"Come on up."
