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

"Young master, stop fussing!"

Wen Rushuang walked forward with a smile, her eyes flashing red.

"Just behave yourself as my plaything..."

Her hand rested on Lin Yi's lower abdomen.

"Ugh!"

Lin Yi screamed in pain!

The body's vital essence is being drawn out like water being released from a dam!

It hurts like my bones are being pulled out alive!

Just then, the situation suddenly changed!

Wen Rushuang's face showed an extremely painful expression!

A hint of anxiety flashed in her red eyes!

"Master... Stop!"

Her own voice came out intermittently.

"Hmph! A mere remnant soul dares to rebel?"

An old and sinister voice roared.

Lin Yi clearly sensed that a fierce battle of souls was taking place within Wen Rushuang's body!

Her conscious mind is desperately trying to buy him time!

"Young Master Lin...run!"

Wen Rushuang's voice suddenly became clear for a moment!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Yi discovered that the restraints on his body had loosened a little!

It's now!

"Open it!"

The blood and qi suddenly exploded!

Bang!

The invisible chains are breaking one by one!

Lin Yi regained his freedom and retreated rapidly, shouting at the same time:

"Wen Rushuang! Wake up!"

Wen Rushuang's body trembled violently, and a glimmer of clarity flashed in her eyes.

She shouted with all her might, "Master... don't try to... control me!"

Lin Yi was so frightened that his scalp tingled!

This woman was actually doing her best to buy him time!

run!

We have to run right now!

Lin Yi transformed into a beam of light and fled frantically without looking back!

"Young master! You can't escape!"

Behind them came the old monster's roar, and Wen Rushuang's painful groans.

Lin Yi knew that simply running away wouldn't help.

He twisted his body and hid in a crevice between the rocks, directly entering the spiritual spring space!

"Damn it! We're finally safe..."

He collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, but immediately jumped up again. "No! That woman won't last much longer!"

He set his sights on the Yin-Yang Water he had previously collected.

"Let's give it our all!"

Lin Yi drew a drop of Yinming Water into his body.

The biting cold instantly froze his meridians, causing him so much pain that he almost fainted!

But his body held on!

The clash between Yin and Yang caused the bottleneck that had been trapping him for so long to loosen a little!

"it works!"

Lin Yi's gaze fell on the two Yinming Corpse Kings.

Refine it!

Only then is there any hope of turning things around!

First attempt, failed!

He spat out a mouthful of blood.

The second attempt failed!

The bones in his right arm creaked as they were corroded by the deathly aura.

"Give it to me... okay!!!"

The third time, Lin Yi burned his essence blood, mixed his origin with the Yin energy, and poured it into the Corpse King's head.

hum!

The Corpse King's eyes snapped open!

But the next second, the shadow of an ancient war spirit suddenly emerged from the Corpse King's body!

Lin Yi's expression changed drastically.

Why are there old monsters everywhere?!

"Young friend, don't panic."

The ancient war spirit's voice was weathered and ancient: "I have seen everything you have done for the Land of Desolation."

"My remaining soul is about to dissipate. Before I go, I can do one thing for you. Tell me."

A ruthless glint flashed in Lin Yi's eyes: "Senior, save my friend! She's being possessed!"

"Okay, take me there!"

Before the boundary marker of the underworld.

Wen Rushuang lay in a pool of blood, clinging to life with only a sliver of consciousness.

"Disciple, why be so stubborn..."

The old monster suddenly turned his head alertly.

Lin Yi returned, with a tall Yinming Corpse King standing beside him!

Golden light flashed in the Corpse King's eyes, radiating an ancient fighting spirit!

"How is this possible?!" the old monster screamed.

"Possession is against the laws of nature! Fellow Daoist, stop!"

The golden battle spirit burst forth from the Corpse King's body, transforming into a giant axe that fiercely cleaved towards the aged soul!

"ah!!!"

Amidst a series of piercing screams, the old monster's soul was gradually eroded away!

"Young Master Lin...?"

Wen Rushuang weakly opened her eyes, "How...did you come back...?"

"Don't speak! Quickly heal your wounds!"

Lin Yi stuffed the life-saving pill into her mouth, saying, "I never owe a woman a life!"

Just then, something unexpected happened!

The Netherworld Boundary Stele trembled violently, and a vortex cracked open on its surface!

A terrifying suction force instantly enveloped Wen Rushuang!

"Young Master Lin!"

In her last moments before being swept into the vortex, Wen Rushuang gave him a deep look, "Young Master... take care..."

She had barely finished speaking when she was sucked into the vortex!

Lin Yi instinctively tried to reach out and grab her, but it was too late.

The next moment, the entire Yinming Valley began to shake violently, and rocks collapsed everywhere!

This dilapidated place is about to collapse!

"Depend on!"

Lin Yi didn't even have time to curse; all he could see was a relatively intact spatial rift emitting black smoke.

He gritted his teeth: "I'll take the gamble!"

He leaped in!

A sudden dizziness.

"Bang!"

Lin Yi fell heavily to the ground, wincing in pain.

When I got up and looked at myself, I was completely dumbfounded.

The sky was dark red, as if it had been splattered with blood.

The ground was riddled with cracks, bubbling with lava and black pus.

The air was thick with demonic energy; even a single breath made one's soul feel unstable.

This place... is actually the deepest part of the Demon Abyss!

"I've... jumped straight into the gates of hell!"

Before he could even see his surroundings clearly, a massive evil will suddenly surged into his mind!

"Tiny human insects..."

A deep, enchanting voice exploded from the depths of his soul.

"Are you in pain? Do you crave power?"

"Open your mind and accept my bestowal... Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Deity Transformation—all are within your grasp!"

"You will rule over everything!"

This is the Demon Lord's will!

Immediately afterwards, countless images flashed before Lin Yi's eyes.

He stood at the highest point of the Tianxuan Continent, and with a wave of his hand, the mountains and rivers changed color.

Ye Qingwan, An Xinyue, Ruan Qingzhu, Sima Liuying, Rong Qianqin...

All the women he cared about were by his side, their faces beaming with smiles.

Power, authority, and beautiful women—all the things men dream of are within reach.

"Help me break the seal, and all of this will be yours!"

That voice was seductive, piercing straight to the heart.

Lin Yi's mind was in turmoil, and his eyes began to glaze over.

His hand rose uncontrollably, trembling, and reached towards the weakest point of light in the seal...

"No!!!"

Just as their fingertips were about to touch, Lin Yi suddenly bit his tongue!

The intense pain brought him to his senses for a moment!

He Sijia, Mu Yun'er, He Xiaowei...

The faces of all the women flashed through his mind like lightning!

"I am Lin Yi!"

He let out a beastly roar, his eyes bloodshot, "Even if I die here! I will never succumb to demonic possession!!!"

"No matter how beautiful an illusion is, it's still fake! I'll walk my own path!!!"

Lin Yi forcefully pulled his hand back, staggering back several steps!

"court death!!!"

The Demon Lord was enraged, and his oppressive aura crashed down like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami raging!

Countless monsters surged forward like a tidal wave!

"Let's give it our all!"

Lin Yi's eyes turned red.

Blood Burning Curse, activate!

Bloodthirsty Pill, swallow!

Throw out all the talismans at once!

"Boom! Rumble!!"

Thunderous Roar!

Flames engulf the sky!

They temporarily forced the monsters to retreat.

"Blood Escape Technique!!"

Lin Yi's entire body's essence and blood burned, transforming into a blood-red rainbow as he desperately fled!

escape!

We have to escape!

The demon lord's roar behind him shook his very soul, and the demons pursued relentlessly.

Lin Yi was bleeding from all seven orifices, his vision was blurred, and his consciousness was on the verge of being extinguished.

In my mind, He Sijia's tearful face flashed by.

Rong Qianqin's cool voice resounded in my heart.

"No! I must survive!"

Lin Yi resisted the temptation.

The Everlasting Green Wood Technique operates on its own, continuously generating vitality.

Suddenly, a sliver of light pierced through the air ahead!

exit?!

"Open it for me!!!"

Lin Yi squeezed out his last bit of strength and transformed into a bloody shadow, shooting forward!

Pfft!

He fell heavily onto the pile of rocks.

He was covered in blood, and it was unclear how many bones he had broken.

But he looked up and smiled.

"...Finally...we escaped."

It's nice to be alive.

Lin Yi entered the spiritual spring space and stayed there for seven days.

His injuries have fully healed, and his cultivation has become even more refined.

What excited him even more was that he had initially refined the Yinming Corpse King.

My mind connected with the Corpse King, and an ancient, malevolent aura rushed towards me.

The Corpse Demon's eyes flickered with ghostly fire, and its knuckles tapped together, producing a metallic sound.

It can be described as a humanoid magical artifact, like a second clone!

This is his biggest trump card.

He intended to leave the other corpse to Wei Xian.

After all, we still need that old man's help, so we have to keep him under control.

"I should go back and see Scarlett."

Lin Yi flashed out of the space and headed straight for Qingyang City.

The streets were bustling with people, just as lively as ever.

It turns out that more than two months have passed.

"Rong Qianqin...I wonder if she has emerged from seclusion yet?"

He shook his head, too lazy to think about it anymore.

Right now, let's go to the He family's place first.

While we're at it, we'll also take care of some smaller fish.

Lin Yi walked with composure, but his eyes revealed a coldness.

After this life-or-death experience, he no longer takes any Golden Core cultivator seriously.

Below the Nascent Soul stage, no one can rival him!

With the added trump card of the Yinming Corpse King, even if a Nascent Soul cultivator came in person, he would dare to fight him head-on!

The only person I can't let go of is Wen Rushuang.

She was swept into the underworld, and now... I wonder if she's still alive?

Meanwhile, at the Zhenyuan Marquis's residence.

Deng Hanshan sat in the lobby, his face as gloomy as if it were frozen.

Ever since his grandson Deng Zhi died at Lin Yi's hands, he hasn't stopped hating him for a single day.

Unfortunately, the Empress openly protected Lin Yi, preventing him from making a move!

"Report! My lord, Lin Yi has appeared in Qingyang City!"

"What?!"

Deng Hanshan suddenly stood up. "Is the information reliable?"

"It's absolutely true! Someone saw him go to the He family's house."

"Good! After hiding for so long, you've finally shown yourself!"

Deng Hanshan slammed his hand on the table and stood up. "Now that the Empress is in seclusion, let's see who can protect you!"

"Pass on my order: assemble three hundred elite Zhenyuan Army soldiers!"

"To avenge my grandson!"

Deng Hanshan still felt it wasn't safe.

He took out a communication talisman and said coldly, "That Wang Yuanlong's hatred for Lin Yi is no less than mine!"

With a flash of light, the message flew towards the Xuanhuo Sect.

This time, he's going to lay a trap so that Lin Yi has no chance of escape!

Lin Yi stepped into the He family's gate.

A figure, choked with sobs, rushed forward.

"Young master...you're finally back!"

He Sijia raised her tear-streaked face, her shoulders trembling slightly, her eyes filled with grievance.

Lin Yi's heart softened, and he raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face.

"Good girl, I never go back on my word."

Just as he was about to help her stabilize her cultivation, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside:

"Miss! Something terrible has happened!"

A maid rushed in, her face pale.

"The Second Master, along with several clan elders, is causing a scene in the front hall! They say you've brought great trouble upon the family and are forcing you to go to the front hall to confess... or they'll remove you from your position as head of the family!"

"What?!" He Sijia's face turned pale instantly.

During this time, her uncles and aunts from other branches of the family became increasingly cold towards her.

Strangers would often come and go from the He family home, meeting with her second uncle in private.

She had sensed something was wrong for a while, but she never expected them to actually break off all pretense of civility!

The maid's eyes immediately reddened when she saw Lin Yi:

"You must be Young Master Lin... You have no idea how much my young lady has suffered..."

He Sijia quickly interrupted her, "Xiaoyun! Don't talk nonsense!"

Then she looked at Lin Yi nervously, afraid that he might be upset.

Lin Yi was taken aback.

He never imagined that He Sijia would bear so much pressure while he was away.

What she never expected was that her family would be implicated because of her.

He always believed that by keeping a low profile and being tolerant, one could live a peaceful and stable life.

In hindsight, being too tolerant isn't always a good thing.

Even if he himself is not afraid of trouble, the people around him will suffer for him.

The tree longs for peace and quiet, but the wind refuses to stop.

I can't bear it anymore!

There's no way to escape it!

A cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Some accounts must ultimately be settled by oneself.

"fine."

Lin Yi patted He Sijia's hand, his voice soft but strangely reassuring:

"Take me to the front hall."

He Sijia looked up and met his deep eyes.

There was not a trace of panic inside, only a calm as steady as Mount Tai.

It's as if as long as he's there, they're not afraid of anything, even if the sky falls.

She composed herself and nodded vigorously. "Alright, young master! I'll take you there right away!"

……

Qingyang City, the front hall of the He family.

"He Changfeng! If you don't hand over that shameless daughter to the Marquis's mansion to confess your crimes today..."

"The Ho family's century-old legacy has been completely ruined by your branch of the family!"

"If Sijia hadn't gone to become Lin Yi's concubine, how could she have provoked such a huge uproar at the Zhenyuan Marquis's residence?"

"Look at the He family now! All their partners have run away, their shops have no business, and the whole town is laughing at us!"

Seven or eight clan elders were talking animatedly, their words all directed at the patriarch, He Changfeng.

He Changfeng's face turned pale, and his knuckles turned white from clenching his fists.

He knew perfectly well that these people wanted to use this opportunity to force him to step down!

Just then.

"father!"

He Sijia, arm in arm with a young man in black, walked into the hall.

She saw that her father looked ten years older, and her nose tingled and her eyes reddened.

"Scarlett? What are you doing here! Hurry up and go!" He Changfeng shouted anxiously.

He Sijia steadied her voice: "Father, don't worry, the young master... he's back."

All eyes immediately fell on Lin Yi.

Lin Yi!

In the Land of Women, everyone knows these two words.

Second Master He Changkun's eyes darkened, and he secretly gave his confidant a wink.

The person quietly slipped out.

"Quickly inform the Marquis of Zhenyuan's residence that Lin Yi is at He's house!"

He Changfeng said urgently, "Young Master Lin, take my daughter away immediately!"

"Wait!" He Changkun blocked his way. "Young Master Lin has come from afar, how can we not treat him properly?"

The First Elder snorted coldly, "Arrest him and hand him over to the Marquis's residence! That might calm the Marquis's anger!"

Arrest him!

Several clan elders gathered around.

He Sijia stood in front of Lin Yi, shouting, "You dare!"

"Shut up! You spendthrift!"

The First Elder roared, "He Sijia, you've utterly disgraced the He family! And you, Lin Yi, without the Empress backing you up, what are you? You're not even as good as a dog!"

Snapped!

A resounding slap rang out!

The elder was sent flying like a dead dog, crashing hard into a pillar!

His mouthful of old teeth sprayed out mixed with blood, and he collapsed on the ground, groaning.

The entire hall was completely silent.

He Changfeng's pupils suddenly contracted.

He, a dignified mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, couldn't even see the movements clearly!

Lin Yi wiped his hands, his eyes icy: "Old man, it's one thing to insult me, but you dare to humiliate my Scarlett..."

His eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Are you tired of living?"

He Sijia's eyes welled up with tears.

My young master... he's too domineering.

He Changkun was both shocked and furious: "This is outrageous! Men, seize him!"

Several powerful auras rushed into the hall in an instant, and several Golden Core guests surrounded Lin Yi.

He Changkun grinned maliciously and said, "Lin Yi, wouldn't it be better if you just stayed a good gigolo? You've delivered yourself right to my doorstep; it's perfect for me to use you to claim credit!"

"Second Uncle, stop!"

He Sijia shouted anxiously, "Aren't you afraid of being punished by the Empress after she emerges from seclusion?"

"An empress? Hahaha!"

He Changkun burst into laughter, "My dear niece, are you still living in a dream? The Kingdom of Women is now a mere shell of its former self!"

"With the resurgence of spiritual energy, the world is in chaos. Who will still care about her?"

"The Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion is the real backer! Taking down Lin Yi is the greatest gift the He family can offer!"

Lin Yi's eyes darkened.

So that explains why these people dared to be so arrogant.

He looked at He Changkun, his tone eerily calm: "For Sijia's sake, I'll ask you one last time. Are you sure you want to use me to curry favor?"

He Changkun, thinking he was scared, sneered, "Now you know you're scared? Too late!"

"very good."

Lin Yi nodded.

Bang!Bang!Bang!

Several dull thuds rang out!

Those Golden Core disciples didn't even have time to scream before they were sent flying backwards like broken sacks, coughing up blood and crashing hard against the wall. In the blink of an eye, they were dead!

A flash of light.

"Ugh!!!"

He Changkun let out a piercing scream and collapsed to the ground.

His dantian was destroyed with a single strike, and his cultivation of a hundred years of hard work was completely drained away like water!

"You...you actually dared to cripple my cultivation!!!"

Lin Yi sheathed his throwing knife and looked down at him: "Killing you? That would be too easy on you."

"You are Scarlett's second uncle after all, I'll spare your life."

"I want you to open your eyes wide and see clearly..."

"How did I manage to completely eradicate the Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion that you so desperately wanted, crushing it into ashes!"
