Chapter 52: The Diary Continues, the Empress’s Troubles!
“Evil Demoness!”
“If you have the guts, k*ll us! We would rather d*e than become eunuchs!”
In a dark and sunless dungeon, all the disciples of the Nine Absolutes Sect, including Du Jiuyou, were imprisoned here.
Of course, only a few remained.
The rest had mostly been destroyed in the cruel tortures.
Du Jiuyou’s cultivation was ruined, with soul nails implanted in every acupoint of his body.
None of these were what troubled him most.
What he found hardest to accept was that, as a Transcendent Realm cultivator, he had been castrated.
Every time he got agitated, urine would leak uncontrollably from between his legs.
It was maddening!
Thus, at the beginning, he screamed at Wei Lan with all his might.
Wei Lan, dressed in imperial attire and smiling, shook her head at him and said:
“The Empress has granted mercy. You won’t have to be eunuchs anymore!”
“I’ll have people bring you back to the Nine Absolutes Sect shortly, and you’ll be completely free.”
Du Jiuyou was stunned, a look of disbelief in his eyes.
He had already prepared himself for certain d*ath.
But suddenly hearing this result made him feel somewhat incredulous.
The other members of the Nine Absolutes Sect reacted similarly.
“Could it be that the sect leader saved us…”
The only thing Du Jiuyou could think of was that the sect hadn’t given up on them.
They must have pressured Ye Qingge or paid a huge price!
Only then could they have forced her to release them.
Thinking this way, Du Jiuyou felt deeply grateful, almost shedding tears of joy.
At this moment, however, Wei Lan laughed playfully:
“But don’t get too excited. Before we send you back, we’ll let you experience my latest invention.”
“It’s called the Celestial Staff!”
A manic gleam flashed in Wei Lan’s eyes as she continued:
“We’ll strip your skin, pull out your tendons, break your bones! Then cut off your limbs and refine you like a magical weapon.”
“Turn you into human-shaped magical weapons like staffs!”
The faces of Du Jiuyou and others turned pale, their eyes filled with intense fear.
They knew that if the Evil Demoness said it, she would definitely do it.
If that were to happen, perhaps d*ath would be the only relief.
Wei Lan sneered and turned away.
Moments later, her cold voice echoed again:
“Wait and see. You’re just the beginning. Soon, the Nine Absolutes Sect will join you in the grave.”
With a bang, the entrance to the dungeon closed.

At this moment, the light screen on the communication array slowly changed.
The diary was updated once more.
Under everyone’s eager gazes, a brand new entry was revealed.
Eternal Emperor’s Diary, Chapter 60:
“A month has passed.”
“We’re still in the inn, haven’t gone out yet. The waiter came several times to confirm that nothing happened to us.”
“Whew…”
“After a month of madness, now entering sage mode!”
“Too bad there’s no tobacco. If I had a puff right now, it would be better than being a celestial!”
“It’s time to go out. See the prosperity of the Central State, experience the local customs.”
“Most importantly, I need to go out and find some spirit medicines, or maybe some beast bl**d to nourish the bl**d and qi, to make up for the losses over the past month!”
“After all, one drop… three drops… what?”
“An elder of the Nascent Soul stage, facing an opponent of that level, isn’t much different.”
“I won’t say more, my old back is almost broken!”
“That’s all for today. Next, I need to plan things out.”
This chapter of the diary ended here.
It wasn’t long, but the content was rich, immediately sparking discussions among many idle cultivators.
“Sss—”
“Truly deserving of the title of Great Emperor, so terrifying, going mad for a month?”
“This is too crazy, hahaha!”
“Sage mode? What is that? Could it be some kind of physical training technique where attack power increases and speed improves?”
“Truly deserving of the title of Great Emperor, even that is extraordinary!”
Of course, not everyone focused on the romantic affairs.
Some keenly noticed the new terms.
“What kind of tobacco is the Great Emperor talking about?”
“It can’t be that simple. Just one puff, and it would be better than being a celestial! What kind of treasure could make the Great Emperor say such words?”
“And this sage mode, it’s also very valuable for research!”
“Also, look at the line below, one drop… three drops… what exactly does that mean?”
“This diary seems ordinary, but it contains great secrets and opportunities! It needs to be deciphered carefully!”

Jade Pool Sacred Land.
After reading this diary entry, Yuan Ruoyu bit her red lip, feeling both embarrassed and indignant:
“Not having gone out for a month, is it really my fault?”
Yuan Ruoyu was still displeased and muttered under her breath: “Still saying your back is almost broken, what about me…”
“Cough!”
Her face flushed like a sunset cloud, reddening instantly.
For a moment, her charm and bashful posture seemed to make the world lose its color.
Who could believe it?
Before them was a fairy-like figure, yet she was the renowned Jade Pool Sacred Land’s Holy Sovereign, a formidable figure who struck fear into hearts far and wide.
A moment later, Yuan Ruoyu’s expression softened slightly.
She looked into the distance, her eyes deep with memories.
Unconsciously, she fell into reverie.
Yuan Ruoyu recalled how, after leaving the inn, they roamed through Liuyun City, attended auctions, climbed high towers to overlook the crowd, and had deep feelings…
Leaving the city, they went to the Liuyun Mountains to search for spirit medicines and hunt beasts.
In an ancient cave within the mountains, they rediscovered their past, unable to resist…
“Cough!”
Yuan Ruoyu suddenly coughed lightly, shook her head, and snapped back to reality.
She gave a bitter smile and sighed: “Why are all these experiences heart-pounding!”
Yuan Ruoyu began to worry.
If all these experiences were written in the diary, what would happen?
Fortunately, she remembered that during their stay in the Liuyun Mountains, many events had occurred.
She could only hope that Lin Feng would record more serious matters in the diary!
Otherwise, her calm would soon crack!

Liyue Celestial Dynasty.
Ye Qingge seemed to be in a bad mood today and announced the end of court early.
There wasn’t much important news for this phase of the diary, so there was no need for further discussion.
Except for a few individuals, the other ministers did not notice anything unusual.
Outside the luxurious bedroom.
Many palace maids and guards were trembling with fear.
Because inside the bedroom, the sound of whips could be heard, causing quite a commotion!
Everyone knew that the Empress was furious at this moment!
“Hmph!”
Inside the bedroom, Ye Qingge swung her whip, coldly snorting and gritting her teeth:
“A month?!”
“Next time, I’ll punish you by not allowing you to leave the dragon bed for a year!”
Ye Qingge paused, and a faint blush appeared on her icy face.
Looking back, she realized…
She and Lin Feng had similar experiences!
A moment later, Ye Qingge suddenly thought of another problem, her expression turning strange.
“I wonder when my diary will mention me?”
She paused, her expression changing again, her voice lacking confidence:
“Mm, that fellow wouldn’t write everything in the diary, would he?”
“If not, how can I maintain the dignity of an emperor?”
Ye Qingge was of noble status and extraordinary talent, always shining wherever she went.
This had cultivated her domineering personality in front of others.
She had always placed great importance on the dignity of an emperor.
Previously, she had been looking forward to when Lin Feng’s diary would mention her deeds.
Even if her identity was exposed, Ye Qingge didn’t care.
But now!
She became somewhat uneasy.
What if the diary wrote about her tender, gentle side towards Lin Feng?
“This…”
Ye Qingge thought, feeling a headache coming on.
The majesty of the celestial empress would be compromised!
In the future, who would still fear her name in the cultivation world?
After a long while.
Ye Qingge’s eyes turned cold, regaining her cold and domineering demeanor, her voice menacing:
“Hmmph…”
“As long as my name isn’t mentioned, I’ll see who dares to gossip!”
This was the Empress’s bedroom, which naturally had projection arrays.
At this moment, the light screen flickered.
The Great Emperor’s diary continued, and soon, a new entry appeared before her eyes.
