The Goddess Chronicles: Starting by Holding the Fairy's Fate in His Hands

"It's...it's you?! Lin Yi!!!"

Sima Liuying's eyes widened suddenly, and even her crying stopped abruptly!

She stared incredulously at the face before her.

It turned out to be him!

He was the one who saved me!

Sima Qiuyun, standing beside her, was even more exaggerated, almost jumping up, "My dear disciple?! What are you doing here?! And you've become so powerful?!"

She glanced at Lin Yi, then at the intimidating old man beside her, her mind completely blank.

When did this useless disciple with nine spiritual roots become so powerful?

The two stunningly beautiful women, an aunt and a niece, stared at Lin Yi as if he were a monster.

"You little rascal! I thought I'd never see you again!"

Sima Liuying buried her face in Lin Yi's arms and clung tightly to his waist.

She completely lost her usual aloof and queen-like demeanor.

At this moment, she was a little woman who had found someone to rely on.

Sima Qiuyun looked at the two people who were tightly embracing each other, her lips moved, but in the end she didn't say anything.

She lowered her head, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes that she herself didn't even realize.

She must have had feelings for her disciple Lin Yi that went beyond the master-disciple relationship.

Seeing how close her niece was to him, she could only swallow her little thoughts silently.

She suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, raised her head, and said, "My dear disciple, now is not the time for reminiscing. Tell me quickly... how can we save my father and my elder brother?"

Sima Liuying also raised her head, "Lin Yi, as long as you're willing to save my grandfather and my father, from this day forward, I, Sima Liuying, will be yours!"

"I'll do anything for you, no questions asked!"

"You...you can do whatever you want to me!"

Lin Yi smiled slightly and patted Sima Liuying on the back, "Don't worry, your family is my family too."

"I, Lin Yi, swear that I will do everything in my power to rescue them!"

But saving lives is never that easy.

The Shangguan family had made preparations long ago, and Sima Hao and the other two were imprisoned in a death cell deep within the forbidden area.

The place was heavily guarded, with layers upon layers of restrictions, making it impossible to even pinpoint its exact location.

Shangguan Xiong personally interrogated Sima Hao, forcing him to hand over the Boundary-Breaking Pearl.

Without a word, Lin Yi dispatched Wei Xian, "Old Wei, find out where they're being held, how many guards are there, and how the formation is set up!"

Wei Xian cursed a thousand times in his heart, but since his life was in their hands, he could only accept his fate.

He transformed into a black shadow and silently sneaked back into the Shangguan family.

Lin Yi knew he couldn't stay here any longer.

The Shangguan family must be swarming like bees, searching everywhere for them.

Especially that Shangguan Xue, not only did she run away, but she also drained her four maids dry. That woman probably wants to chop him up and feed him to the dogs right now.

He led Sima Liuying and Sima Qiuyun into a secluded mountain cave.

After setting up the hidden formation, he breathed a sigh of relief. "We're safe for now. We must hurry up and recover before Wei Xian returns."

The cave was dimly lit, and the three people sat around it, creating a somewhat awkward atmosphere.

Sudden.

Sima Liuying sensed something was wrong with Lin Yi's aura, and her eyes widened in surprise. "You broke through?! How is that possible?!"

She knew better than anyone how useless Lin Yi's nine spiritual roots were.

The only way for this guy to level up quickly is... to cultivate with a woman!

Her eyes suddenly sharpened, tinged with bitterness. "Tell me! How did you break through? We've only been apart for a short time!"

Sima Qiuyun also became interested, "That's right, my good disciple, tell your master quickly!"

Lin Yi felt uneasy under their gazes. He touched his nose and asked, "Would you believe me if I said Shangguan Xue helped me break through?"

"impossible!"

The two spoke in unison, their tone resolute!

Sima Qiuyun shook her head repeatedly, "Who in the entire Holy Glory Alliance doesn't know that Shangguan Xue is a notorious germaphobe and misogyny!"

"She'll help you? She'll be lucky if she doesn't chop you up!"

Lin Yi grinned and briefly explained how he had drained the four maids, Mei, Lan, Zhu, and Ju.

Upon hearing this, Sima Liuying's jealousy dissipated.

Instead, a sense of urgency prevailed.

She took a deep breath, grabbed Lin Yi's hand, and said, "In this emergency, we must act quickly! I'll help you stabilize your cultivation, and I need to heal myself! We must recover our strength as soon as possible!"

Sima Qiuyun blurted out, "Then I'll help you too!"

As soon as she said it, her face turned bright red!

Good heavens!

What nonsense is she spouting?!

How could she compete with her niece for that with Lin Yi?!

She hurriedly waved her hands, "That's not what I meant! I meant I would use my spiritual power to heal you!"

The more he tried to explain, the worse it got. Finally, he stomped his foot in frustration and squatted down at the cave entrance.

"You go ahead! I'll keep watch for you!"

Lin Yi was stunned, giving his master a strange look. "Goodness... you're even more anxious than I am?"

Sima Liuying glanced at her aunt in surprise, but didn't have time to think about it further.

She raised her hand to cast a protective spell, then pulled Lin Yi inside, saying, "Idiot! What are you standing there for? Come on in!"

Lin Yi swallowed.

He used to always be the one to take the initiative, so why is this woman suddenly being so enthusiastic today?

but……

It's good to take the initiative!

Just thinking about the exhilarating feeling of his cultivation level soaring when he practiced dual cultivation with a Nascent Soul cultivator made him swallow hard!

"Since Sister Liuying has so kindly invited me, how could I possibly refuse!"

And so, Sima Qiuyun, blushing, squatted at the entrance of the cave as a door god.

Deep inside the cave.

Springtime is in full bloom within the restricted and isolated space.

Lin Yi also completely let go of his worries and devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivation.

After all, this is the fastest shortcut to regaining strength right now!

……

Over the next few days, Wei Xian used all his stealth skills.

He actually found some clues.

Sima Hao and the others were imprisoned deep inside the water dungeon.

But the number of guards there was frightening, and the formations were so complex that even he found them troublesome.

"Damn it!"

As Wei Xian dodged the patrols, he cursed inwardly, "That kid is definitely enjoying himself, leaving me to do all the dirty and hard work!"

He was half right.

In the cave on the other side, Lin Yi had indeed been busy these past few days.

Sima Liuying seemed to want to vent all her previous frustration and despair, becoming exceptionally proactive.

The two made love and were very happy.

Not only were Sima Liuying's injuries fully healed, but her cultivation level also remained steadily at the peak of the mid-Nascent Soul stage, and she even faintly touched the edge of the late stage.

Lin Yi also felt that his Foundation Establishment Great Perfection realm was more solid, but he just couldn't get past the threshold of the next level.

It was only Sima Qiuyun, who was guarding the cave entrance, who suffered.

Hearing the occasional noises coming from inside, she could only blush and shrink into a corner, forcing herself to meditate.

"Fireflies,"

After another round of passion, Lin Yi held the person in his arms and asked, "When are you going to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage?"

Sima Liuying rolled her eyes at him. "Dream on! It's not that easy!"

Lin Yi chuckled awkwardly, "Then... shall we continue?"

Sima Liuying then asked him in return, "And you? Have you felt the effects of forming your core yet?"

Lin Yi's face fell. "Don't even mention it... there's not a sound at all."

"What's the point of all this fuss if there's no sign of anything happening?"

Sima Liuying immediately changed her expression, grabbed her clothes, and got up to put them on.

Lin Yi's arms suddenly felt empty.

This woman is only being so proactive for the sake of cultivation!

We need to rescue her grandfather and father quickly!

If we hold onto this favor, we'll be able to keep her obedient in the future!

"By the way, why haven't we heard anything from Old Man Wei yet?"

Lin Yi quickly changed the subject.

Sima Liuying frowned. "The Shangguan family's security is so tight, even Senior Wei found it troublesome?"

Lin Yi nodded. "Yes, but don't worry, I'll give him plenty of encouragement!"

At the same time, outside the Shangguan family's water prison.

Wei Xian, who was breaking the formation, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine!

"Achoo!"

He almost gave himself away.

"Damn it! That kid must be plotting against me again!"

Wei Xian was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he could only curse and continue working.

The atmosphere inside the cave was a little awkward.

Sima Qiuyun leaned closer, "My dear disciple, Yue'er, are you finished with your work? What's the best way to save my father and the others?"

Lin Yi waved his hand dismissively, "A solution? Yes! Wei Xian is working on one! We just need to wait!"

Sima Liuying and Sima Qiuyun: "???"

The two were completely taken aback by these words.

Lin Yi, however, remained calm.

Wei Xian had lived for nearly ten thousand years, and in his eyes, the restrictive formations and arrays of the Shangguan family were like children playing house.

However, just to be on the safe side...

Lin Yi still passed on the "Thousand Faces Illusion Technique" and the "Breath Concealment Technique" to the two of them, saying, "They can save your life in a critical moment!"

The two immediately buried themselves in their studies.

Just then, Sima Liuying's expression changed. "Not good! Someone's coming! It's Shangguan Yun! He's leading a group of guards this way!"

Lin Yi's eyes lit up immediately!

"Someone's here to deliver the sacrificial lambs? Perfect, we need an identity to infiltrate!"

He quickly made arrangements: "Liu Ying, you focus your attack on Shangguan Yun and take her down in one move! Master Qiu Yun, deal with those two maids! I'll hold the guards captive! Alive!"

The two immediately darted to hide on either side of the cave entrance.

Lin Yi flicked his fingers in quick succession, activating the Bewildering Spirit-Trapping Array.

The footsteps were getting closer.

Shangguan Yun's voice rang out, "Search thoroughly! If you find them, I will reward you handsomely!"

He was dressed in magnificent robes and walked at the front. Two maids followed closely behind, and then there were seven or eight Golden Core guards.

The moment Shangguan Yun stepped into the array's range!

"Now!"

Lin Yi silently shouted to himself.

hum!

The array shone brightly!

White mist is rising!

Those Golden Core guards felt a blur before their eyes, as if they had fallen into a quagmire!

"Enemy attack!"

The guard leader only managed to shout half a sentence before he was trapped inside the formation.

Whoosh!Whoosh!

Two figures shot out like lightning!

It was Sima Liuying and Sima Qiuyun!

For someone in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm to fight Shangguan Yun, who had just formed his Nascent Soul realm, was like an adult beating a child!
