I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Lin Yi realized with a start that he had truly fallen into a trap this time, having unknowingly let his guard down.

Fortunately, he was already quite resistant to charm and other forms of control, and he pulled back from the brink before revealing anything more important.

"This woman is dangerous," Lin Yi said, looking at her with a serious expression. "Your child is still in your belly. Why are you asking me about him?"

Furthermore, when I said I was the brother of your unborn child, you didn't doubt me. Why?

"Since you've asked, I'll tell you."

The princess calmly replied, "First of all, this is my name, Li Meng. The reason I asked you about him is related to my supernatural powers."

It turns out the princess's name was Li Meng, but we don't know her surname.

Lin Yi was lost in thought, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Seeing that he wasn't playing the straight man, Li Meng had no choice but to continue the story herself.

"My special ability is to enter dreams. In dreams, I can see the past and communicate with the future. I guess you must be in the future!"

Lin Yi: "..."

What kind of magical power is this? I want to learn it too!

Lin Yi's thoughts were practically written on his face. Li Meng comforted him, "This is our clan's innate divine power, and it cannot be passed on to outsiders."

"However, if you're willing to tell me what my son will be like in the future, I can also teach you to enter dreams. Although you can't see the future, you can invade other people's dreams. As long as the difference in cultivation level isn't too great, it won't be detected. How about it?"

Chapter 239 I'm Doing Something Big

Li Meng has the same appearance as Xiao Se. Lin Yi was already somewhat close to her. Even if she didn't offer to teach him the art of entering dreams, Lin Yi would still tell him about Xiao Se's situation.

Of course, this was just some basic information; he didn't even know what kind of place it was, so he dared not reveal too much.

"Your son is as handsome as you, healthy, and kind-hearted."

"That's not important. What's his relationship with the Prince of Liang?"

The question Li Meng asked contained a lot of information.

First of all, in the question she asked, the King of Liang was the King of Liang, not Xiao Se's father.

Furthermore, why would she feel that the child's appearance, personality, and physical health were not as important as the child's relationship with the Prince of Liang?

Recalling the conversation among the servants in the Prince's mansion earlier, Lin Yi did not answer. Instead, he asked, "I would like to ask first, what exactly is his relationship with Prince Liang?"

Lin Yi's question was somewhat offensive, especially since the servants had discussed it before. This was simply deliberately picking on a sensitive point and provoking him.

Li Meng wasn't angry. She just looked at Lin Yi for a while and smiled, "You're quite cautious. Fine, when you enter my dream in the future, I'll probably be dead by then, so there's nothing to hide."

You guessed right, the child in my womb is indeed not the Prince of Liang's.

Lin Yi: "..."

For a moment, he seemed to see a green light.

So, Xiao Se is not the son of the King of Liang, but the son of the old emperor, while Xiao Zhao is the nephew of the old emperor. In other words, Xiao Se is actually the cousin of the King of Liang.

Seeing Lin Yi lost in thought, Li Meng interrupted him, saying, "Don't overthink it. I haven't wronged Prince Liang. It was all just a transaction. I'm asking you now because I want to know if the future Prince Liang will keep his promise."

"..."

This princess is very suspicious!

Lin Yi couldn't help but ask, "What did you agree on?"

“I helped him become emperor, and he let my son succeed him.”

Lin Yi: "..."

Is this treating the Prince of Liang like a sucker?

The children aren't even your own, yet they want to inherit your estate—who can handle that?

Perhaps, in the early stages of Liang Wang's rise to power, he did agree to obtain Li Meng's help, but once he had the opportunity to become emperor, he no longer wanted Xiao Se to inherit his position.

Despite sympathizing with King Liang, Lin Yi told the truth.

"You may be disappointed. King Liang is so eager to kill Xiao Se that he will naturally not support him to become emperor."

Li Meng was furious when she heard this.

"Just as Xiaobai said, humans are most prone to betrayal!"

Lin Yi: "..."

Wow, that's a lot of information!

If she says that humans are most prone to betrayal, then she certainly isn't human.

The nickname "Little White" involuntarily reminded Lin Yi of Yan Qingqiu, the strongest demon he had ever met.

The two seem to have little connection, but Yan Qingqiu is a white fox.

Lin Yi made this connection because he had been pondering the relationship between King Liang and the Demon Emperor. With so many clues linked together, it was natural to speculate.

He blurted out, "You wouldn't happen to be the Demon Emperor, would you?"

Li Meng smiled slightly and said, "That's right, I am."

She answered the question with such calmness, as if she had just taken a sip of water.

Lin Yi remained silent for a moment, unsure of what to say.

"My identity is not important. What is important is that since I dreamed of you, you will inevitably enter my dream in the future."

Even for me, dreaming about the future isn't easy, and it only lasts a short time. So, let's talk about something serious!

After Li Meng revealed that she was the Demon Emperor, she became much more dignified, and the noble aura she exuded made people want to conquer her.

Lin Yi kept his mind focused, lest he be seduced by her.

Regardless of whether her charm skill is active or passive, Lin Yi cannot fall for it, after all, she is his friend's mother.

Both of them sat up straight, and the atmosphere became serious enough for them to talk business.

"I am going to do something big. If I succeed, the human and demon races may no longer have to kill each other. If I fail, I will surely die."

And my child, once his identity is exposed, will inevitably become a common enemy of both the human and demon races.

Since you are my child's brother, I hope you can help him and protect him as he grows up.

In return, besides the dream-entering technique I promised you, I can also use my innate supernatural power to grant you one wish.

Upon hearing that supernatural powers could be used to grant wishes, Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat.

Can any wish be granted?

"of course not."

Li Meng looked at her with the expression of someone looking at a silly child, and said, "Nothing in this world comes out of thin air. For every gain, there is a loss. The wish you can have is equal to the price I have to pay."

For example, if you wanted someone to come back to life, I would have to give up my life for you. That's impossible; I only have one life left.

Lin Yi couldn't help but feel disappointed. If even being brought back to life was impossible, then time travel was out of the question.

Lin Yi felt that sending him back to the modern world would be more difficult than bringing a dead person back to life.

Since revealing it would most likely be impossible, it's better not to say anything to avoid leaking the secret.

If going home is ruled out, Lin Yi has no other wishes.

Becoming powerful is a wish, but it's something you can achieve on your own, so you don't need to ask others for your wish.

"If you can really help me use your supernatural powers to make my wish come true, I will use this opportunity on the person I love... uh, no, the ghost."

I made a wish that I could successfully rescue He Dong from the clutches of the Thousand Illusion Demoness.

Lin Yi always felt that the wish he made was like Sun Wukong asking the dragon for a pair of underwear.

The difference is that Shenlong can achieve anything, while here, whatever Limeng wants to achieve, she needs to pay an equal price.

Lin Yi didn't want to make things too difficult for her, after all, this opportunity to make a wish was practically free, and he would protect Xiao Se even if she didn't make a request.

But Lin Yi happened to need help, so he made that wish.

Li Meng was clearly taken aback for a moment, and asked doubtfully, "Is it that simple? Okay, you'll do well."

When Li Meng said those words, Lin Yi felt as if the world was slowly collapsing.

"I'm about to wake up. I hope you remember our promise. Those who break their promises will eventually be punished."

It was like a dream. The colorful world in front of him suddenly collapsed, and Lin Yi opened his eyes and found himself in a dreamlike world.

Above, countless stars twinkled, and all around were stone walls of various shapes. The ambient lighting was purple, and the entire space was filled with an unconventional atmosphere.

Lin Yi had no idea where the others had gone, nor where he was. He could only look up at the sky, completely bewildered.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that what was in the sky were not stars, but rather shimmering bubbles.

Suddenly, one of the bubbles burst open, and then, the Thousand Illusion Ghost Princess emerged from it.

Her eyes were fierce, and she exuded a murderous aura, as if she was about to unleash a massacre.

Even Lin Yi didn't dare to provoke her because of her imposing presence.

But when she saw Lin Yi, she quickly composed herself and asked gently, "I'm sorry, did I scare you?"

Lin Yi: "..."

Putting aside her illness, Senhuan Guiji is quite a good older sister; she's gentle and beautiful.

Unfortunately, he has a serious illness.

Lin Yi sighed inwardly and waved his hand, saying, "I'm fine, but what about you? Did something happen?"

Are you concerned about me?

Qianhuan Guiji was somewhat pleased, blinking her big eyes at Lin Yi, who then said shyly, "I guess so. Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, I just had a nightmare. If nightmares can make you care about me, I don't mind having them every day."

The Thousand Illusion Ghost Princess smiled sweetly, completely different from her fierce and menacing appearance just now. Even Lin Yi was almost fooled by her girl-next-door image.

However, Lin Yi constantly reminded himself that she was a very dangerous person and that he should not be deceived by her gentleness; she was essentially a female demon.

What did you dream about?
