I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

He Dongzhen never expected that Qianhuan Guiji would speak to her so kindly. She had always regarded Qianhuan Guiji as a vicious thug and felt nothing but fear in her heart.

Now it seems that perhaps Qianhuan Guiji wasn't so fond of killing, or perhaps she wasn't so mentally unstable. It's also possible that her feelings for Lin Yi had transcended everything.

Therefore, she obeyed whatever Lin Yi did to her, and now she was even willing to give up punishing her as a traitor for Lin Yi's sake.

Who knows, this Thousand Illusion Ghost Princess might actually like Lin Yi?

For a moment, He Dong felt a mix of emotions.

Meanwhile, the battle outside had also reached a stalemate. Lin Yi had thought that the attackers were just a few nameless soldiers who he could easily deal with, but it turned out that the two who jumped in were just a signal.

As the two men made their move, countless other people appeared in neat rows around them.

These people either have two flowers on their heads or eight spiritual talismans floating around them, and the weakest of them are all of the second rank.

Besides humans, there are also demons, the weakest of whom have a cultivation level of 1,500 years.

If only demons came, tonight would be like adding extra food to Lin Yi's meal. But there were more than a dozen demons and more than a dozen humans leaping onto the wall.

A truly skilled warrior could probably wipe out the entire enemy force in one move, while Lin Yi would likely have to kill them one by one, which would be quite troublesome.

Lin Yi was puzzled. "Is there a mole among my people? How come I get discovered no matter where I go?"

Previously discovered by Madam Poison and forced to relocate, Lin Yi arrived in Xingsha today and even drove away the large group of people he had rescued before, but the stronghold was still exposed.

This was even more ruthless; before he knew it, this group of second-rank officials had completely surrounded him.

"Gentlemen, what brings you here so late at night with such a grand entrance?"

Facing numerous enemies, Lin Yi showed no fear.

If he really couldn't win, he would definitely run away immediately. Now that there are so many humans and demons, Lin Yi is only worried that they will not be martial arts compliant and will launch a sneak attack, which is why he wants to draw the hatred onto himself.

"Who are you? Could you be an accomplice that Lin Yi hired?"

The speaker was a monkey demon dressed in a Taoist robe named Hou Wendao. He looked human and spoke slowly and deliberately, as if he had shed his monkey nature.

He was one of the monsters who first broke into the courtyard and was then forced to fight Lin Yi.

No wonder he couldn't figure out Lin Yi's identity. He really didn't expect Lin Yi to be so ruthless. As soon as they started fighting, in close combat, he almost killed him with a single sword strike.

If it weren't for its agility, it would already be a corpse.

"You monkey, don't ask who I am. I'm asking you now: did you come here to die?"

"Insanity!"

Hou Wendao was also very annoyed. Even though he was not confident of defeating Lin Yi, he still drew his magic sword and charged towards Lin Yi. If he didn't show his strength, he would become arrogant.

With so many humans and demons here, are they afraid of him alone?

Knowing that Lin Yi was fierce, he was not flustered at all, because his strength was agility and he was best at using softness to overcome hardness.

"Kid, take this sword!"

The crowd gathered to watch the show, hoping to let Hou Wendao test Lin Yi's abilities. After all, Lin Yi spoke so arrogantly; he might actually have some real skills.

Hou Wendao leaped menacingly in front of Lin Yi and unleashed a powerful sword strike, his energy surging as if he were about to cleave Lin Yi in two.

Lin Yi merely flicked his wrist, casually deflecting Hou Wendao's sword. He then threw a punch, and Hou Wendao, knowing Lin Yi's ferocity, quickly did a backflip to dodge the punch. He then came behind Lin Yi, about to stab him from behind, when unexpectedly a sharp sword pierced his chest.

This sword strike is called "Turning Back to Strike".

The monkey demon was caught off guard by Lin Yi's move. Lin Yi's sword strike was too secretive and too fast. Not only him, but many spectators did not see clearly how Lin Yi thrust out the sword.

Seeing Lin Yi's appearance, they assumed he was a Qi cultivator, unaware that Lin Yi also practiced the Dao of Talismans, adding concealed runes to his sword. He didn't mobilize his true qi, relying entirely on the power of his physical body; how could this group of second-rank cultivators possibly discern this?

After Lin Yi stabbed Hou Wendao once, he quickly pulled out the Pillow Snow sword and stabbed him five times in succession, penetrating his throat, brain, lower dantian, heart, and lungs respectively. Each stab pierced Hou Wendao through.

Lin Yi only stopped when the Demon-Slaying Manual was turned over.

"Who will be next to die?"

Even though Lin Yi killed the Great Demon Hou Wendao in a few breaths, these second-rank cultivators couldn't see his true strength. They only felt that Lin Yi's methods were strange and insidious, and that if they faced him head-on, they might not be his match.

Of course, they weren't going to be foolish and attack one by one. Someone in the crowd shouted, "Forget about chivalry, let's attack together!"

With these words, both humans and demons seemed to have been freed from their constraints, and they all attacked together, unleashing a variety of dazzling spells at Lin Yi.

There were talismanic lights, sword energy, and various Taoist techniques of different attributes. Some even wanted to take the opportunity to bypass Lin Yi and snatch people from his backyard.

Their only goal is Wang Jinxuan; there's no need to fight to the death with others here—it's not worth it.

It's already September 13th, and there are only two days left until September 15th. As long as we manage to snatch that person, we'll have the means to enter the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm.

Inside the room, He Dong watched as the battle outside intensified, and the situation seemed very unfavorable for Lin Yi. She couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going to help him?"

"Someone has already arrived."

"Who?"

Before He Dong could finish asking, a giant mouth appeared in the sky and swallowed up all the spells and energy that were aimed at Lin Yi.

Those humans and demons who tried to sneak into the inner quarters to capture Wang Jinxuan all felt an immense pressure, as if they were carrying a mountain on their backs, and they all collapsed to the ground.

This unexpected change caused the expressions of the second-rank cultivators and the thousand-year-old demon to change.

Those who possess such methods are likely to be of the highest rank.

Sure enough, they soon saw the Taoist Guishan standing in the courtyard.

"I am returning to the mountains. I advise all fellow Daoists to return to the mountains as well. The Demon Emperor's Secret Realm is not a place for you to participate in."

Once Gui Shan's name was mentioned, everyone, whether human or demon, knew that their chances of winning were slim.

Even with a high-ranking official stationed here, there's not much they can do.

There had long been rumors that the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm was enough to attract Demon Kings and first-rank experts to take action, so these second-rank humans and demons still held onto a sliver of hope.

Only now that a top-tier expert has actually appeared do they realize that the rumors were true.

Those who knew what was good for them left quickly, but some were still unwilling to give up. They didn't realize the gap between themselves and those of the highest rank, and even dared to challenge Gui Shan.

"You old codger, how dare you compete with us juniors for opportunities? Have you no shame?"

No one knew where this deity came from; he was probably used to being arrogant, and everyone else couldn't help but turn around to see who he was.

Unfortunately, I turned around too late and didn't see what the arrogant guy looked like; all I saw was a pile of sauce.

"Is there anyone else who disagrees?"

Upon hearing this, the fleeing people ran even faster, but then a beautiful woman suddenly appeared.

"I don't agree!"

When Guishan Daoist looked over, he saw that the white-clad woman's eyes were covered by a black cloth strip.

It turns out he was blind.

"Very well, you may leave. I will not argue with a blind man."

"You're the one who's blind. If you weren't so ugly, would I be blindfolded?"

Gui Shan: "..."

It's back; the familiar memories are back.

So, you were the banshee who got scared away, right?

Chapter 204 You Don't Look Like the Demon Emperor

As the saying goes, enemies meeting are bound to be extremely hostile.

There was no deep-seated hatred between Gui Shan and Bai Lianxian. Gui Shan always thought of himself as a refined and easy-going person with a broad mind.

It wasn't until he met Bai Lianxian that he realized how easy it could be to break someone's defenses sometimes.

"Who do we have here? It's you! You saw me once and left, but today you've come back blindfolded. I think you're not only blindfolded, but also blinded by profit."

The Demon Queen of yesteryear treated you demon kings quite well. Now that her offspring are in trouble, not one of you demon kings has considered the past. You only want to seize the Demon Queen's secret realm. You are indeed beasts. Even if you take human form, you cannot change your animalistic nature.

How dare you laugh at me for such a despicable act?

At this moment, Master Guishan displayed his refined and easygoing nature to the fullest.

Bai Lianxian said he was ugly, so he said Bai Lianxian's behavior was ugly, thus clearly showing who was superior.

Bai Lianxian couldn't help but laugh when she heard this.

"You're here too, aren't you also plotting to seize the Demon Emperor's secret realm? Do you think our demon race is just going to watch the human race take away the Demon Emperor's possessions?"

You're ugly, but you have such beautiful dreams!

Guishan Daoist: "..."

In terms of sharp tongue, he seemed no match for this female demon. In any case, his words only made Bai Lianxian laugh, but Bai Lianxian's words broke his defenses once again.

What does it mean to be ugly but have beautiful dreams?

"I am here not to seize the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm, but simply to prevent those with ulterior motives from harming the Demon Emperor's daughter in their attempt to seize the secret realm."

"I don't believe you for a second. You humans are best at spouting empty words of benevolence and morality. However, if you really want to seize the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm, I won't stop you, but don't even think about hurting my brother."

"Your brother?"

Guishan Daoist was completely bewildered, but Lin Yi covered his face and watched the show for a long time.

Seeing that the situation had eased somewhat, Bai Lianxian called out to him, "Lin Yi, your sister is here to save you."

Lin Yi: "..."

I don't actually need you to save me.

"When did he get an older sister?"

Qianhuan Guiji was also very curious about Bai Lianxian, who had suddenly appeared.

Presumably, He Dong, who spends every day with Lin Yi, should know this!

At this moment, He Dong was also completely bewildered.

Where did this woman come from!

How many vixens are out there?!

Sensing the change in her mood, the Thousand Illusion Ghost Princess knew that the girl knew nothing and couldn't help but sneer.
