“Spirit Stream Year 4281, February 4th, heavy snow.”

“Everything is going smoothly. I told Yan Yan this is all a farce, and once the trial ends, I would rescue him.”

“The trial took place publicly, broadcasted worldwide, Yan Yan confessed his crimes, and was sentenced to death.”

“Tomorrow is the day when the death sentence will be carried out. It should all end soon.”

“What should I do after retirement? Perhaps become an honorary professor at Imperial Capital University? Or maybe roam around and see this beautiful world? Or maybe take on a few disciples that catch my eye, teach them… I still have a lot of time left, I can take it slow, no rush.”

“Spirit Stream Year 4281, February 5th, cloudy.”

“When Yan Yan found out he was to be executed, he looked at me in confusion. Could he not know that he has killed people and ruined my life!”

“Damn it, why is Yan Yan not under my control anymore! The master-servant contract has failed!”

“Thankfully, the supreme leader was ready. He gathered eight contract beasts of the Body Integration Realm and under the command of their master, besieged Yan Yan.”

“Yan Yan somehow managed to release the master-servant bonds of these eight contract beasts as well.”

“Yan Yan said you are now free, but unfortunately, for contract beasts, their servitude is ingrained in them. Even when the contract was lost, they still obeyed. Yan Yan made a miscalculation.”

“Yan Yan did not consider, all beastkin are domesticated by humans. After being born, they are brainwashed as contract beasts, indoctrinated with the idea of obeying humans, telling them that humans are their friends.”

“In this way, even if a contract beast becomes a Divinity Transformation Stage, gains wisdom, it will still follow old habits, believes in us, regards us as friends.”

“Who knew that Yan Yan would have some unexpected rebellion. He really embarrassed me as his master.”

“Contract beasts were essentially beasts. Their wild instincts were hard to change. Their way of fighting had no elegance.”

“The battle lasted from afternoon to midnight. Among the Body Integration Realm it was hard to decide on a victor, and Yan Yan was overly powerful, despite being slightly disadvantaged against eight contract beasts. However, the outcome was inevitable, this was a dead-end game, Yan Yan wouldn’t survive.”

“I am doomed to a sleepless night.”

“Spirit Stream Year 4281, February 6th, weather unknown.”

“Why would Yan Yan breakthrough to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage in the midst of battle!”

“If the contract between us were still in place, doesn’t it mean I could have also become a Transcendance Tribulation Stage practitioner, or even ascend to immortality?”

“Yan Yan, you knew that you would breakthrough to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, so you intentionally severed the master-servant contract, right?”

“Now is not the time for such talk, escaping is what’s crucial. Yan Yan’s gone crazy, he hates obedient beastkin and hates humans.”

“He massacres indiscriminately. The supreme leader is dead, eight contract beasts of the Body Integration Stage are dead, their masters fled in different directions, and I’m next on Yan Yan’s kill list.”

“My father was right. Beasts are beasts, untrustworthy. Thankfully, we humans had already built these air raid shelters. The No. 93 shelter built by my father is the most concealed and robust. I hope Yan Yan can’t find it.”

“Spirit Stream Year 4281, March 15th, weather unknown.”

“The number of shelters I could contact was decreasing. I don’t know how many have been destroyed by Yan Yan.”

“Many people’s close relatives in the shelter died at Yan Yan’s hands. I cannot reveal my identity.”

“What a disaster. I wonder how many people Yan Yan have to kill to stop. Can it be that Yan Yan won’t stop until he finds me? I’m going insane! How could I have such a thought.”

“Spirit Stream Year 4281, March 29th, weather unknown.”

“This shelter was broken through by Yan Yan. Some people resisted, but the sound of gunfire was subsiding. I sensed that Yan Yan is approaching; he’s here to find me, he’s here to find me…” ”

The diary ends here, Jiang Li pieced together the skeletal remains scattered across the room, it belonged to a practitioner of the Body Integration Realm.

This was probably the owner of the diary, Xiao Dong.

Upon finishing the diary, everyone fell silent. No one spoke a word.

Despite discovering from the shelter and murals that the previous Lingxi World was incredibly prosperous, it was all built upon human beings enslaving beastkin.

Rather than saying the Lingxi World was created by the intelligence of mankind, it would be better to say it was erected from the exploitation of beastkin by mankind.

They verbally treated beastkin as friends, acting otherwise, trading them at will, caging them up, signing master-servant contracts, even allowing students to use them freely. They regarded beastkin as a tool for making money, even using them to take the blame…

The master’s cultivation level was always higher than that of the servant. No matter how strong the beastkin were, the humans were always a bit stronger.

In such a scenario, the humans never truly trusted the beastkin, rather they were careful at every step out of fear that they might cause harm. They didn’t allow them into schools, built the air raid shelters… all this spoke volumes about the situation.

In the end, human beings in the Lingxi World reaped what they had sown, driving Yan Yan into the Transcendence Tribulation Stage.

Perhaps, just as Xiao Dong speculated, Yan Yan didn’t wish to exterminate mankind, he just wanted to kill Xiao Dong.

If Yan Yan exterminated all humans after Xiao Dong’s death, then where did the current human beings come from?

Xiao Dong was a reflection of the human race in the Lingxi World. As a child, he treated Zhu Yan as a friend, or rather as a pet named “friend”. As he grew older, he slowly began to see Zhu Yan as a tool, and was no longer affectionate.

This was due to societal conditioning.

“Du Ye, it was him again.” Jiang Li noted that on the eve of Yan Yan’s ordeal, Du Ye came to see Yan Yan.

Jiang Li thought that the method of breaking through to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage must not be disclosed. Du Ye most likely only advised Yan Yan on how to end the master-servant contract.

While the Heavenly Demons were definitely involved in this matter, it was hard to say how much of a role they had played.

Perhaps Du Ye was just the tipping point.

According to Long Live Immortal’s speculation, the Heavenly Demons only started attacking various worlds after the path to immortality was cut off. Prior to that, they had nothing to do with the Heavenly Demons.

Looking at it chronologically, the Old Spirit Stream Era lasted for 4300 years, while the new one has been around for 2000 years, totalling 6300 years. In terms of the timeline in the Nine Provinces, that is just about 12600 years.

In other words, when the Old Spirit Stream Era began, the path to immortality was still intact, and the Heavenly Demons had not yet arrived.

Xia Chao didn’t understand: “If this current situation was all done by Yan Yan, why would Yan Yan turn the beastkin into idiots? Isn’t he a beast himself?”

Jiang Li sighed: “Perhaps he’s angry at the beastkin for their servitude. Even after the contract was dissolved they still followed the commands of the humans, so he retaliated by turning the beastkin into idiots.”

“The beastkin are idiots and humans are slaves to the beasts. He made it disgusting for both humans and beasts.”

“The Nine Provinces is good.” White Snow Spirit felt grateful. Even though the path to immortality was cut off, and humans in the Nine Provinces dominated everything, we did not mistreat the beast clans. Even the contracts used by Beast Taming sect were equal contracts.

It must be known that in the Lingxi World, Yan Yan could control the world just by breaking through to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. Yet, in the Nine Provinces, even if she, White Snow Spirit, became a Transcendance Tribulation stage being, or even achieved immortality, she would still be unable to cause any waves with Jiang Li present.

The beast clan was always subject to manipulation.
