While writing a diary at Zongwu, Wang Yuyan falls in love with someone else.

Although she was always confident, she would never dare to say that she could surpass all the women in the world.

Therefore, while Huang Rong was flattered, she couldn't help but smirk smugly: "You have good taste!"

Huang Rong rested her chin on her hand, her shimmering eyes sparkling as she stared intently at the copy of the diary, eager to see what Jiang Sishui would write next.

At the same time, countless stunningly beautiful women let out a disgruntled snort.

As Yaoyue was on her way to Wuliang Mountain, her face darkened, and the air pressure around her seemed to drop, creating a tense and unsettling atmosphere.

The maids of Yihua Palace behind her fell silent, not understanding why the Grand Palace Master, who had been perfectly fine just moments before, had suddenly become like this.

At this moment, Yaoyue was filled with anger.

Yaoyue had anticipated that she wouldn't be the last person, because the diary's owner had a very low level of affection for her!

But when she actually saw Jiang Sishui award the title of "Number One Extraordinary Woman in Martial Arts" to someone else, she was still furious.

Although this title was only Jiang Sishui's subjective assessment and could not represent objective facts, she was still dissatisfied and unhappy.

She was renowned for her beauty, even rejecting the marriage proposal from the Emperor of Dali. Moreover, she cultivated to the late stage of Grandmaster level in her early twenties!

With both strength and beauty, who can rival her in strength and beauty?

How can she accept being labeled as superior with just a few words?

"Jiang Sishui, is that right? In Suzhou? I'll come find you and see how you dare to look down on me, Yaoyue!"

Yaoyue gritted her teeth, secretly vowing revenge.

……

South of Nanzhou lies the land of the Baiyue people.

Yan Lingji lay sprawled on the bed, lazily stretching her graceful body, one hand supporting her head, the other playing with a cluster of flames.

Seeing the praise for Wang Yuyan and Xiaolongnu in the diary, a smile appeared in her bewitching eyes: "At most, they're on par. You can't even surpass them?"

As she spoke, she gently turned the page, revealing the words written on the title page:

[Character: Yan Ling Ji]

[Instruments: 10]

【Favourability: 10】

"If they can't even rank first, it seems they're not the only one who got perfect scores in two categories."

Yan Lingji lightly covered her lips with her fiery index finger and said sweetly, "Infatuated with me? You fickle fellow, I wonder if you want to experience my fiery passion or my tender tenderness?"

"But they weren't ranked first, and they were quite unhappy about it."

"How are you going to coax me then? Hehe..."

Just as I was thinking this, I saw that the contents of the diary copy had been updated again.

There are hundreds, even thousands, of beauties in the martial arts world. It would be ideal to possess them all, but that's incredibly difficult, even if I became the best in the world.

"Bah! You want to have them all! Even if you had hundreds or thousands of women, could you handle them all?"

Upon seeing this, the women all spat lightly, thinking that Jiang Sishui was indulging in wishful thinking.

Let alone a thousand, even a hundred women could exhaust the strongest man!

But if I could only choose one, I would choose Rong'er without hesitation.

"Rong'er? Is that Huang Rong?" The women's hearts stirred.

On the pleasure boat, Huang Rong's gaze also sharpened.

[Huh? Right, there's also Yan Lingji. I wonder if she exists in this world?]

She's the number one goddess in Chinese animation! Just like Rong'er in martial arts novels.

Is "Nine Songs of the Sky" considered a wuxia (martial arts) novel? I guess it is?

If I had to choose between her and Rong'er, wouldn't I be worrying myself sick?

"Nine Songs of the Sky? Am I a character in it?"

Yan Lingji's heart stirred, and she looked at the diary page with a playful expression, wanting to see what choice Jiang Sishui would make between her and Huang Rong.

"Hmph! You womanizer! You just said you'd choose me without hesitation, and now you've changed your mind. How despicable!"

Huang Rong clenched her small fists, wishing she could cross space and give Jiang Sishui a good whack.

Forget it, only children make choices. I want them all!

Huang Rong: "..."

Yan Lingji: "..."

However, if I really could only choose one, maybe... perhaps... probably... well, I would still choose Rong'er.

Huang Rong's face immediately lit up with a bright smile.

The flame at Yan Lingji's fingertips suddenly went out.

009 Rong'er is an angel among mortals.

The two women reacted differently: one was happy, the other was annoyed.

It wasn't that they fell in love with this philandering man they'd never met after reading the diary; it was just that Jiang Sishui's evaluation was undoubtedly a kind of contest between them.

Women are often jealous and like to compare themselves to others. Just as Yaoyue wouldn't allow herself to lose to Lianxing, Yanlingji didn't want to lose to Huang Rong either.

Especially considering the results of this comparison, it's unknown how many people will actually see them.

"That jerk, he needs to experience the extremes of ice and fire that others have to endure."

The flames that reignited on Yan Lingji's fingertips burned even brighter.

While Yan Lingji is undoubtedly a goddess-level enchanting beauty, even surpassing Rong'er in appearance alone, she is not as interesting as Rong'er.

[This applies not only to Yan Lingji, but also to Wang Yuyan and Xiaolongnu]

Wang Yuyan revolves her entire life around her cousin Murong Fu, with everything concerning him.

If they were mutually in love, that would be romantic. Unfortunately, Murong Fu only cared about restoring his kingdom; he only used Wang Yuyan as a tool for learning martial arts.

Murong Fu didn't care about Wang Yuyan at all, but Wang Yuyan never saw this and kept calling him "cousin" all the time.

[Putting aside her martial arts talent, this celestial being's soul lacks a sense of self, making her more like a "decorative vase."]

"A vase? Is that how you describe me?"

Wang Yuyan was lost in thought, noting on the title page—

[Character: Wang Yuyan]

[Instruments: 10]

【Favourability: 8】

A rating of eight indicates a mere liking, nothing more.

Moreover, how much of this "liking" is based on her physical beauty?

"Do I have no sense of self? Is my cousin really just using me?"

Wang Yuyan felt a sharp pain in her heart, and memories flashed through her mind, including all the moments she shared with Murong Fu.

Whenever Murong Fu came to see her, he would ask her about martial arts, and then leave without ever glancing at her again.

Not to mention any showing concern or flirting.

That was never.

Thinking of this, Wang Yuyan felt a chill in her heart.

Like Wang Yuyan, Xiaolongnu was a homebody who had never been anywhere else since childhood.

She was naive and innocent, oblivious to the ways of the world, and didn't even know that buying things outside cost money.

At the same time, because she had been practicing the "Jade Maiden Skill" taught by her master since childhood, she had almost severed all emotions and desires, and rarely experienced emotional fluctuations. She even took life and death very lightly.

In "The Return of the Condor Heroes," Granny Sun, who raised her from childhood, was killed by Hao Datong, one of the Seven Immortals of Quanzhen. She only felt a moment of sadness before regaining her composure.

[Because in her view, everyone has to die eventually, whether sooner or later it doesn't matter.]

So, from beginning to end, even as her closest relatives passed away, she didn't shed a single tear.

At this moment, she didn't seem like a human being; she was more like a block of ice.

Cold and indifferent

Her naivety is endearing; one feels that no amount of pampering or love is too much, and one would even wish to pluck the moon from the sky for her.

[But if you're facing that cold and aloof Little Dragon Girl, then she's not a celestial being descended to earth, but a fairy from the Nine Heavens, completely untouched by worldly affairs.]

[This aloof and ruthless fairy-like woman—it's hard to imagine any man not wanting to possess her.]

However, if you were to honestly date her, you'd miss out on a lot of the fun.
