Their curiosity about other worlds—and about the diary's owner, Chu Ge—grew ever more intense.
Just as their thoughts were in turmoil, a prompt sounded in their minds:
[Diary copy reading complete. Would you like to bind the diary copy? After binding the diary copy, reading the diary daily will grant item and cultivation rewards.]
Temptation—naked, undisguised temptation!
Almost at the same moment, across the far north and south, in different lands, the same thought surfaced in the minds of the women who had just finished reading the diary copy.
Some slightly furrowed their brows, still harboring doubts about the diary copy.
Most of them held lofty positions and profound cultivation. To them, the diary copy was an unknown existence, and so they did not make a decision lightly.
Others, however, revealed looks of resolve and bound the diary copy without the slightest hesitation.
On Shuiyue (Water Moon) Peak.
"Sister, did you hear that voice?"
Inside the room, Lu Tingni spoke up to ask.
Lu Fuyao nodded in response.
"Sister, do you think we should accept this… this binding?"
Lu Tingni asked again, her face revealing an eager, excited expression.
"Since it's related to Senior Brother Chu, it probably won't be something bad, right…?"
She spoke as if to herself, yet also as a reminder to Lu Fuyao.
As the elder sister, Lu Fuyao naturally saw through Lu Tingni's little thoughts at a glance.
But she did not expose them—because she herself was also very curious!
Not only about the diary itself, but even more so about that Senior Brother Chu who had once lightly stirred the strings of her heart.
'If I bind this diary copy, I should be able to become closer to Senior Brother Chu… right…?'
With this thought in mind, she pondered for a moment before speaking:
"You don't need to rush into binding it. I'll try first. After I confirm there are no problems, you can decide for yourself."
Hearing this, although Lu Tingni's curiosity was nearly unbearable, she knew her sister was doing this for her sake and immediately nodded in understanding.
Having made up her mind, Lu Fuyao no longer hesitated and directly responded in her mind:
"Bind."
[Ding! Binding successful.]
As this sound echoed in her mind, Lu Fuyao also received a stream of information—
some operational details regarding the diary copy.
Looking at the diary copy in her hand, Lu Fuyao had a thought.
In the next instant, the diary copy abruptly vanished from in front of the two sisters' eyes.
"Sister! You—?!"
Lu Tingni's small mouth fell open slightly, her eyes widening in shock.
But Lu Fuyao had no time to pay attention to her sister at this moment.
All of her attention was focused on the diary copy interface within her mind.
Name: Lu Fuyao.
Appearance: 9.5.
Favorability: 59.
She concentrated on each of these numbers one by one, and the diary copy immediately provided explanations. Lu Fuyao quickly understood their meanings.
'Senior Brother Chu… has a favorable impression of me…?'
After understanding what the numbers represented, Lu Fuyao's thoughts began to drift.
Unconsciously, a figure dressed in snow-white robes surfaced in her mind.
