I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Chen Huaiyuan is now questioning this.

What is the concept of a Demon Emperor?

The entire human race mobilized its first-rank members, bringing out immortal and sacred artifacts to subdue the demon emperor.

What is he?

He's at the bottom of the ninth rank, and he's a fortune teller; all his fighting power comes from his two legs.

Nothing else, just fast.

Is this something he can inquire about?

Why would I care about that?

Chen Huaiyuan said he wanted to live a few more years.

Shang Chang'er said, "Life is precious, so when opportunities come your way, you must seize them."

I previously gathered some information at the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, which is related to Lin Yi and also to the Demon Emperor's Secret Treasury..."

Shang Chang'er shared the story of Lin Yi and Wang Jinxuan, leaving Chen Huaiyuan and Niu Er dumbfounded.

Good heavens, Lin Yi did something so amazing, and they only found out at the very end. If Shang Chang'er hadn't told them, they probably would never have known and would have thought Lin Yi really went on a business trip.

"But can we get involved in this? And what can we do about it?"

Chen Huaiyuan actually values ​​opportunities very much. His master had told him before that his life was destined to be turbulent and that he would face a great calamity. His only chance of survival lay with the Jingye Division.

But what exactly it was, his master didn't say, and he didn't ask.

Diviners know what to say and what not to say. Chen Huaiyuan is a divination master, so he naturally understands the intricacies of the matter. Either his master doesn't know either, or his master can't say.

Therefore, he didn't ask any questions, but simply did as his master instructed.

Seeing Chen Huaiyuan's expression, Shang Chang'er knew he was interested, so she kept bluffing, "If we're talking about fighting for the so-called Demon Emperor's Secret Realm, that's pure nonsense, but investigating who's spreading rumors isn't that difficult."

The other side has already fabricated a lie about sacrificing the demon offspring with blood, which shows that they are fearless. Let's take advantage of their inattention and secretly investigate. When Chief Constable Lin is out of danger, you can tell him who is plotting against him. Isn't that doing him a favor?

Even if you don't tell Lin Yi, you can still report it to the Jingye Division; that's also a chance for promotion, right?

Niu Er asked innocently, "How can you conclude it's a lie just because of the words 'blood sacrifice to the demon offspring'?"

"Nonsense, if you had an inheritance, who would you want to leave it to?"

"Of course it's my son."

"That's right. If you were the Demon Emperor, would you leave such a huge pit for your child when you die? How stupid would someone have to be to kill their own child to get their property?"

Niu Er was immediately embarrassed. He had never thought about this question before, so he could only scratch his head and say, "That's right. If it's so easy to see through, will others still fall for it?"

"Of course it will. Besides people as stupid as you, there are also some who are clearly very smart but still try to take advantage of others. They are blinded by greed. You should never think that a scam is stupid. No matter how simple the scam is, there will be smart people who will fall for it."

Shang Chang'er was practically giving her own experience as an example. Although she felt extremely ashamed every time she talked about it, she wanted to roll on the ground every time. But it was precisely because of this that she kept those eight words firmly in her heart.

As Shang Chang'er said, many people will still do the same thing even if they know the news might be false.

Anyway, it won't be too difficult to catch Wang Jinxuan. We can just do it and catch him.

Is this difficult?

Just like she thought when she was tricked.

If it's a lucky break, you'll make a fortune; if it's not, you'll only lose a little money.

And then I actually fell for it.

The person who designed Lin Yi this time was also very clever. He simply cast a wide net, filtered out some smart people, and only needed to make sure that the rest were willing to be fooled.

There are countless cultivators in the world. Even if one doesn't deliberately seek out Lin Yi, one would still think twice if they happened to encounter someone who resembled him.

With more people paying attention, Lin Yi had nowhere to hide and was naturally forced to show himself.

Shang Chang'er wanted to help Lin Yi, partly because of A Qi's hint, and partly because she admired people with chivalrous hearts.

Like her, she often robs the rich to help the poor, and sometimes she will trick newbies to satisfy her desire to deceive, but deep down she does not think of herself as a bad person, but rather as a chivalrous woman.

She admired Lin Yi, a man willing to travel the world for his friends. There was only so much she could do, but she could at least help him find some backstabbing spies.

After thinking it over, Chen Huaiyuan nodded.

“I think your idea is good, but we need to be careful. The other party must be powerful and influential to be able to bribe the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion to spread the news. We are just a few people with low cultivation levels, so we can only provide some help from behind the scenes.”

“You don’t need to worry. As long as I’m here in Star Sand City, no one can attack you.”

Suddenly, a man burst into the council hall. It was Xiao Se in white robes. Shang Chang'er was immediately amazed when she saw him. What a handsome young man!

This person must be someone of great status!

Shang Chang'er was speculating about Xiao Se in her mind, and Xiao Se also glanced at her.

She's quite sensitive to being stared at; she thought she felt two gazes on her just now, but now she thinks it was just her imagination.

It wasn't wise to delve too deeply into the matter at the moment. Xiao Se then said to Chen Huaiyuan and the other two, "Thank you for your willingness to do these things for Acting Constable Lin. I will naturally reciprocate. As long as your investigation doesn't leave Xingsha City and doesn't destroy the city, I can cover for you. But you must find out as soon as possible who is plotting against Acting Constable Lin."

"Who is this...?"

Shang Chang'er noticed Xiao Se's extraordinary demeanor, and her tone softened slightly.

"My name is Xiao Se."

Xiao Se cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, his expressionless face unchanged.

Chen Huaiyuan added, "This is the chief constable of all generations."

Oh, I see, this is the second link in the nesting doll.

Xiao Se and Shang Chang'er exchanged a few glances, both sensing the aura of a formidable enemy, but to others, it was the spark of love igniting.

A handsome man and a beautiful woman, a match made in heaven.

"Thank you for what you did for Lin Yi. I will tell him about it later."

Xiao Se skillfully displayed her close relationship with Lin Yi, displaying the demeanor of a domineering wife.

Cough cough, I got too into character.

Xiao Se felt that time was running out and wanted to use his strength as much as possible to help Lin Yi before he was assassinated.

Unbeknownst to her, Lin Yi was already leading an assassination squad in a meeting in the city...

Chapter 182 These assassins have no martial ethics

Here's what happened: Lin Yi came to Changsha just because he was passing through.

However, he released the Cloud Eagle in Lingling County and sent the same secret letter to King Liang again, saying that he had not received a reply before and asking King Liang if he had received the first secret letter.

Since you're playing yourself who's been possessed by a dark demon, sometimes you have to get into character a little too deeply.

He deliberately avoided Wang Jinxuan and He Dong while he was working, after all, Yunying was also very intelligent, and although it couldn't speak, it might leak something.

These are the details about Lin Yi.

Perhaps because he was traveling too slowly, Lin Yi headed north and passed through Xingsha County, where he received another reply from the King of Liang.

"The situation has changed, or the news may have leaked. Take action immediately. Fifty assassins have been dispatched to Xingsha to obey your orders. You will hear the thunderous news tomorrow."

The King of Liang only gave him one night; tonight, he was going to kill Xiao Se.

It wasn't just him who received the order; there were also fifty other assassins.

Clearly, if Lin Yi doesn't make a move tonight, the other fifty assassins will. Lin Yi doesn't know the level of the other assassins, but with that number, they might actually be able to kill Xiao Se.

After all, although Xiao Se's realm was high, he had little practical combat experience. When Lin Yi asked He Dong about Xiao Se's strength, He Dong said that Xiao Se was probably the weakest of the third rank.

Lin Yi had no idea that He Dong's words contained a tiny bit of slander against Xiao Se, so he was naturally more worried about Xiao Se's safety.

Therefore, he could only feel at ease carrying out the mission of ambush Xiao Se himself. So, he led He Dong and the others to hide in Xing Sha City, found an abandoned house to temporarily house them, and then gathered a large number of assassins to hold a meeting at one of Liang Wang's hideouts in the south of the city.

"His Highness has ordered that we act tonight, with a thunderous strike that will settle the world."

Lin Yi, his face covered with a black mask, addressed a group of assassins. These assassins were all well-trained and listened quietly to Lin Yi's speech, their eyes firm and resolute. They didn't need Lin Yi to persuade them; they only needed him to give them instructions.

“Very good, everyone is in high spirits, but our goal today is not simply to kill him, but to lure him to the prefectural governor’s mansion and then kill him. You guys, later you will pretend to be people from the prefectural governor’s mansion. When you see the patrolmen from the Jingye Division, go up and fight them. Be careful with your strength, just fight them to a draw.”

The important thing is to verbally humiliate them, show them disdain, and emphasize that you should beat them every time you see them, understand?

"understand!"

Lin Yi's orders were very clear; they just needed to carry them out.

Lu Ningchuan is currently still living in the prefectural governor's mansion, which will likely be renamed soon. The plaque is still being commissioned.

Lin Yi had met Lu Ningchuan a few days ago. He seemed rather arrogant and domineering. As a new official, he might be about to make a big splash and even target the Jingye Division. He might not have made a move yet, but it wouldn't feel out of place for Lin Yi to help him.

Now that Xiao Se has returned to Xingsha County, she will definitely report back to the Jingye Division. With so many things happening in the Jingye Division, she certainly won't ignore them, because she is the only one who can stand up to someone of the governor's level.

We can kill her on her way to the prefectural governor's mansion, or kill her on her way out of the prefectural governor's mansion, and then frame Lu Ningchuan for it.

Being as clever as I am, I immediately came up with a brilliant plan to complete the King of Liang's order.

These assassins were all highly trained, skilled in disguise and infiltration. Soon, those who received the orders disguised themselves and went to find trouble. The remaining people, under Lin Yi's arrangement, set up an ambush on Xiao Se's only route to the prefectural governor's mansion.

There couldn't be a better assassination plan, so handing over this process to Prince Liang shouldn't be a problem, right? Lin Yi summoned Yun Ying and relayed the message back.

He didn't intend to expose his identity after this job. He wanted to awaken Xiao Se, but if he couldn't, there might be countless open and hidden attacks in the future. Being in the shadows could also help Xiao Se protect himself.

Nighttime is when the Jingye Division is most active. Soon, the first wave of conflict broke out. Lin Yi left the group and looked around. From a distance, he saw some of his former colleagues being beaten and silently felt guilty.

Although some of these people had spoken ill of him behind his back and he had overheard it, Lin Yi was a magnanimous person who never held grudges. He had long since let go of such trivial matters, and now seeing them get beaten up, he just thought it was too much of a coincidence.

I, Lin Yi, feel no joy.

"These assassins are really good actors. Their arrogant demeanor and threatening words are so convincing."

Lin Yi nodded with satisfaction and then looked elsewhere.

Little did he know that the assassins he had sent out were also watching this scene from afar.

"Boss, should we do it again?"

This small team naturally has a leader, and in situations like this, he is needed to make decisions.

"Do as instructed, and beat them up again."
