Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1760 Diary (2)

"I've decided to go after all. Being a rogue cultivator outside is too difficult. Every bit of resources requires risking your life. Compared to the protection of a sect, it's much safer!"

"Fortunately, the Azure Moon Sect accepted me! I became their core disciple!"

"The only pity is that after joining the sect, my new master seems to dislike me a bit!"

"But it doesn't matter. I just want to find a safe haven, take on some sect missions, and then work hard to hone my skills!"

"I also have the qualification to participate in that trial here. I have about twenty years left. I must seize the time to cultivate and strive to enter the Immortal Realm before I turn fifty!"

……

“Xiaoyue, we have been separated for twenty-three years. During this time, I have felt so lonely. Even in this Cangyue Sect, apart from the junior brother I saved, who occasionally comes to chat with me, I have no friends and no one to talk to!”

"Today I heard your name. This is the first time I've heard your name since you left the village and we parted ways. They say you are now a super genius of the Flame Moon Sect, and have already entered the late stage of Immortal Realm!"

"They even said that you've been noticed by the Seven Gods Sect and have a chance to become their disciple!"

"You really are the chosen one! I'm still struggling in the mud. I'm so lonely, so tired. I just want to see you!"

Do you still remember Lin Chen, the boy you used to follow around since you were little?

"I am as insignificant as dust. I feel so tired, and I feel like I can't go on anymore."

"Revenge and seeing you are the only hopes that keep me training hard, but I'm so tired. Do you know how inhuman the pain I endure every day on the path of a martial artist?"

"Xiaoyue, I'm so worried, so worried that when we meet again, you'll say you don't remember me!"

"How am I supposed to handle this situation?!"

"Should I... come to see you?"

……

"I've finally broken through to the Immortal level! I want to get the sect's qualification to participate in the battle, but I have to participate in the challenge!"

"Fortunately, the cultivation technique I practiced was really strong enough. Even though I was just a martial artist, I had an absolute advantage against those awakened ones. They couldn't even break through my physical defenses. I successfully qualified for the competition!"

"That day, the entire sect was excited. My master, who usually ignored me, actually praised me in front of the whole sect!"

"But I'm not happy. I know it's only because I, as his disciple, brought him honor and even some benefits that he's acting this way!"

"He won't treat me like a son, like my previous master did!"

"I'm also a little nervous. I know that as a prodigy of the Flame Moon Sect, you will definitely participate as well. Perhaps we will meet in front of the Dragon Pointing Platform!"

But perhaps you don't remember me!

……

"Xiaoyue, I see you! I see you standing in the Yanyue Sect's ranks, dressed in red, with a long sword on your back, looking so heroic!"

"I greeted you, and you glanced at me, then asked me coldly who I was!"

"When your senior classmates ask you, 'Who am I?'"

I quickly replied, "I am Lin Chen, Lin Chen who grew up with you since childhood!"

"You seem afraid I'll embarrass you, so you coldly say you don't know me!"

"Xiaoyue, do you know how much I've gone through from the time we separated until I stood before you again?"

"Do you know what kind of days I've been living every day just to see you again?"

"Xiaoyue, you are so cold. My heart feels like it's dead! When you said you didn't know me, I stood there stunned for two days. I even forgot how to breathe!"

"They all say I'm a fool. Your fellow disciples, senior and junior sisters, they all mock me for being a toad trying to eat swan meat!"

"Xiaoyue, I know I'm not good enough for you. I never thought about doing anything with you. I just wanted to see you, tell you that the village was destroyed, and talk to you. I never thought about being with you!"

"I've become everyone's laughing stock, but I don't care. I have no interest in participating in this battle of geniuses anymore. I just want to find a place, lie down peacefully, and die!"

"I can no longer find a reason to live."

……

"Hongyuan helped me up! She's a warm-hearted girl and very beautiful!"

"She pulled me aside and said that a woman like that isn't worth it!"

"But she doesn't understand, she doesn't understand that you are my obsession, the hope that sustains me to live."

"Now that my obsession has been shattered, it seems I have no reason to live!"

"She saw that I was heartbroken and told me that there are many meaningful things to do in life. She invited me to team up with her to participate in the Genius Battle. After the Genius Battle, she would take me to a place where I could do many things and make every day meaningful!"

"I'm numb. I don't know who I am, what I should do in the future, or what the belief is that keeps me going."

"She is the water that warms me, and I've decided to try it with her!"

"She said that place is called the Holy Court. I will find my value there!"

……

Ye Qing's eyes flickered slightly upon seeing this.

Holy Court!

So, was it at this time that Lin Chen, the owner of this diary, joined the Holy Court?

He actually managed to seal his diary inside this star-patterned stone; this diary must be extraordinary.

It's even possible that these records contain the reasons for the Holy Court's destruction, or perhaps the existence of some treasures!

Thinking of this, Ye Qing continued to flip through the pages, as if he were reading a person's entire life!

In fact, as he watched the whole thing, he had quite a few feelings in his heart!

Lin Chen had a miserable childhood!

……

I seem to be quite lucky. I actually broke through one after another during the trial and reached the Domain Lord realm. Moreover, by chance, I also found the second half of my body refining technique!

"I have successfully broken through to the Domain Lord realm, and Hong Yuan and I have both become top ten in this Genius Battle!"

"This achievement far surpasses those so-called prodigies of the Flame Moon Sect."

"I saw a slight change in Xiaoyue's expression when she looked at me."

"I know she actually knows me, but she's afraid I'll embarrass her, so she's unwilling to acknowledge me!"

"My heart is dead. I don't care about her expression!"

"What's funny is that the Flame Moon Sect actually invited me to join their sect, and they're willing to accept me as their personal disciple! This status is already on par with Little Moon's!"

"However, I lost interest and decided to leave with Hongyuan and enter the Holy Court! Although I don't know what kind of place it is, Hongyuan has a very good personality. During this trial of geniuses, she blocked many attacks for me, and I consider her my best friend!"
