Chapter 4
Chapter 4: Princess of the Great Yu Empire and the Witch’s Surprise – Is This the Future?:
At this moment, Su Youwei felt lightheaded, as if she were hallucinating.
“It opened?!”
Before she could recover from her shock, the diary opened by itself, revealing its contents completely.
[I was reborn… I went back ten thousand years…]
[Darkness… endless darkness…]
Reading on, Su Youwei’s face turned pale, and she instinctively took several steps back.
“What is written in this diary?”
“Su Changqing was reborn? 10,000 years into the future… one of the last beings to resist the darkness and terror?”
“Is the Boundary Sea really that terrifying? Can a single wave become an entire world?”
Her heart was racing. She didn’t understand how this diary ended up in her hands, but now, the contents inside were too much to ignore. Su Changqing had revealed the future. Could it be true?
“The future Nine Mystic Heavens will be destroyed by the terrifying descent of darkness? ”
“Not only that… the heavens and worlds will be drenched in blood?”
Su Youwei was overwhelmed with shock and curiosity and continued reading despite herself.
[Darkness and turmoil… All beings devastated… The heavens will collapse…]
[Darkness, filled with blood and fire, has descended on all worlds, with the heavens already infiltrated by dark roots… invasion…]
[Until the last drop of blood… but still, failure…]
The more she read, the more her shock deepened. Her face grew paler with each line. Even though they were only words on a page, she could feel the invisible terror seeping from the diary. It was terrifying, creeping into her very bones.
It felt like the diary was describing an endless darkness, pulling her into its depths.
The future it described?
It told of Su Changqing, along with the mysterious Huang, the Ruthless Man, Emperor Ye Tian, and others, joining forces to resist the dark turmoil. Even though they merged their strength across time, from the future, the past, and the present into one, they still failed to quell the chaos.
“Will such an event really happen in the future?”
“The heavens and worlds… will they truly fall?”
Su Youwei couldn’t comprehend it. Beyond Nine Mystic Heavens, there existed countless worlds and even more terrifying beings?
What had Su Changqing experienced?
Was the future really heading toward destruction?
That man, the only remaining fighter of the heavens and all races, such a strong existence—would even he be defeated?

At the same time, in the Nether Sea Domain, in the central sea region, stood a sect—high atop the peak of the Demon Sect, at the Sacred Maiden’s Peak.
Murong Dieyi was staring intently at the maid standing before her.
“Are you telling me you don’t see what’s in front of you!?” Her tone was sharp and hurried, disbelief evident on her flawless face. Her delicate, heated body trembled slightly.
Hearing her saintess’s words, the maid was confused and could only stare blankly at the breathtaking beauty before her.
“S-S-S-Saintess… I really don’t see anything! You… what’s happening to you?”
The maid was on the verge of tears.
This was the third time the saintess had asked her this question. There was nothing in front of them!
Could it be that the saintess had lost her mind from her cultivation?
Upon hearing the maid’s response again, Murong Dieyi’s amethyst-colored eyes widened in shock.
“Su Changqing? How did I end up with a copy of his diary?!”
Once the maid had left, Murong Dieyi felt restless and uneasy. What was going on?
Just moments ago, everything had been normal, but now this strange diary had appeared out of nowhere and embedded itself between her eyebrows. Worse yet, it would appear at will!
She had heard of Su Changqing, of course. Even though she rarely ventured outside, his name had been mentioned many times by the sect elders and disciples.
“The holy son of the Absolute Path Sect… and his diary…”
Taking a deep breath, Murong Dieyi was still puzzled.
What was happening? And why was this diary marked as belonging to her?
Could it be connected to Su Changqing? Or was this something he didn’t even know about?
Taking a deep breath to steady herself, Murong Dieyi’s expression returned to its usual cold demeanor.
“I want to see what’s inside this diary…” Her purple eyes glimmered slightly as she flipped open the diary.
The very first sentence made her freeze in place. Rebirth?
“Su Changqing… experienced rebirth!?”
Not only that…
For Su Changqing, it had been 10,000 years!
From 10,000 years ago until now?
Murong Dieyi couldn’t believe what she was reading. The diary’s content was incredible from the very first page.
“What’s going on!? That man… was reborn from the future!?”
Her heart was pounding in shock. She could hardly fathom that this man had been reborn from ten thousand years into the future! As she continued reading the diary…
Endless tragedy.
The heavens and worlds were facing their darkest moment.
The Boundary Sea.
The Dark Sovereign.
Each word made Murong Dieyi’s scalp tingle, and her cold, beautiful face betrayed a flicker of emotion.
“Is… is this the future it’s talking about!?”
“Is Nine Mystic Heavens really that insignificant? Even… just a wave in the sea is equivalent to Nine Mystic Heavens!?”
She was stunned, her mind spinning. Was Nine Mystic Heavens truly that small in the grand scheme of things? And could a single wave of the Boundary Sea be the size of a world?
God!!!
Murong Dieyi’s breathing became rapid as she kept reading in a daze.
“Darkness and turmoil? All worlds collapse and fall into endless darkness!?”
“Under this devastating battle, all beings… perish!?”
“Su Changqing… took part in this dark turmoil, yet no matter how hard he and the powerful figures of other races fought, they couldn’t stop it. Even worse… everyone died!?”
After reading the latest entry in the diary, Murong Dieyi was utterly shaken. Everything written in Su Changqing’s diary pointed to what would happen in the future! And the future was engulfed in a terrifying dark turmoil?
How could this be?
Murong Dieyi’s heart pounded wildly, and she couldn’t find any calm within herself.
“Is this real!?”
“Su Changqing went through the dark turmoil, and after failing… he was reborn?”
She tried to make sense of it all but struggled to believe it. Could such a horrifying future truly come to pass? Would even rebirth force him to experience it all again?
Had she really glimpsed the future through this copy of the diary?
As Murong Dieyi pondered, still overwhelmed by shock, doubts crept into her mind.
“How can this be!?”
Her purple eyes shone brightly, and suspicion filled her thoughts. But if it was all fake, why could she feel the suffocating terror in the diary’s words?
Why did it seem to carry Su Changqing’s deep regret and helplessness?
“Is this really what the future looks like…?”
