I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

But Lin Yi wasn't afraid at all. He continued to chase after the Dragon Wolf King and said calmly, "Go ahead and scream. You're going to die today anyway, and no one can save you!"

"What if I were included?"

When the Dragon Wolf King was in danger, Gou Quan, dressed as a eunuch, appeared.

Lin Yi glanced at it and was immediately filled with joy.

[Gou Quan: He has usurped the position of the Dog in the Chinese zodiac, and is afraid of death. Killing him will grant you 8,600 years of undamaged cultivation.]

[Merits and Demerits: Unforgivable even by death—usurping a divine position, neglecting one's duties, fawning on foreign tribes, and defiling the name of the Dog God]

[Status: Enemy detected, preparing for battle]

[Special Skill: Dog Bark - Emits a roar that can intimidate enemies and instill fear in them]

Guardian: Increases attributes by 50% within their own territory.

[Weakness: Cowardice - Injury will lower the will to fight and survive, and the person may flee]

Gou Quan is also on the list of demons, ranking fourth.

The cultivation level he can provide is already very high, and like the Dragon Wolf King, it is without any loss of cultivation level, which is equivalent to sixty-four times the cultivation level.

Two at once! Isn't this a double celebration?

Although both men usurped the positions of the zodiac deities, the Rat Taoist's cultivation was not unscathed. Comparing the descriptions of the three men, Lin Yi secretly pondered that this might be related to the fact that both of them had helped the Northern Wei Dynasty.

In other words, the Demon-Slaying Manual has a higher level of hatred towards traitors?

Lin Yi had his own plans, but he gave Gou Quan a friendly smile.

Thanks for coming to feed the enemy, I'll kill you first!

The reason is simple: the Dragon Wolf King is stronger than Gou Quan, has a decent ability to escape, and retains a certain ability to fight back.

Given his own advantage, he should naturally eliminate the easier target first.

When Gou Quan saw Lin Yi smile, his heart skipped a beat. When he saw Lin Yi draw his sword and slash at him, he panicked even more.

What's going on with you? Didn't we agree to become enemies with Wolf Brother?

Gou Quan only had time to bark twice, attracting more palace guards, before he immediately turned and ran away.

He was worried that his two legs wouldn't be fast enough when he ran, so he transformed into his original form as he ran.

It was a yellow mongrel that looked a lot like a wolf. Lin Yi felt a little unhappy when he saw it.

He actually likes dogs quite a bit. When he was a child, his family had a local dog that was smart and obedient. It would escort him to and from school and would greet other dogs on the way.

At that time, Lin Yi felt that his dog, Dahuang, was communicating with the village dogs—"This little kid is under my protection, so don't bark at him."

Seeing Gou Quan escape, Lin Yi suddenly understood why Gou Quan's zodiac dog god position had been defiled, even though they were both working for a different race.

This is because he tarnished the image of the dog. Dogs are loyal and protective of their owners. Gou Quan obtained the divine position of the dog in the Chinese zodiac, but he became selfish and turned against his original owner.

Seeing that he looked a lot like her favorite dog made her even angrier.

When Lin Yi got angry, the Dragon Wolf King panicked.

He wasn't afraid of Lin Yi's murderous intent, but he was afraid of Lin Yi's anger.

Sure enough, they had agreed to attack together, but now the Dragon Wolf King didn't have the courage to get close to Lin Yi. He was afraid that if he pounced on Lin Yi, he would get beaten up by Lin Yi again, just like that night.

Immediately, he disregarded Gou Quan, who was being chased by Lin Yi, and ran away.

Gou Quan: "..."

I may not be a wolf, but you are a real dog!

Gou Quan ran for his life, screaming as he ran, so loudly that all the dogs in Luoyang barked in unison.

This was the first time Luoyang had ever been so bustling. Even the high-ranking officials and nobles were somewhat bewildered. When they discovered that the root of the unrest lay in the imperial palace, they were even more confused.

Who is this person who dares to be so bold?

Thanks to the calls of the two zodiac gods, the offerings in the palace were quickly made available.

Suddenly, a row of them stood there, making a lot of noise.

This included the White Wolf Grand Priest, who came seeking help, but the people of Luoyang ignored Chang'an's predicament and had no intention of sending troops.

He repeatedly lobbied in the palace and finally persuaded the emperor to send troops. However, a few days later, Tongguan was captured. At this time, Chang'an had just finished mobilizing its grain supplies.

Now, the emperor had no intention of sending troops. Tongguan was difficult to attack, so it was better to send troops from other directions to suppress the rebellion.

Xiao Yue's territory was too small, so the Northern Wei court didn't pay much attention to it. At this time, they were more concerned with preserving their own power at the lowest possible cost.

And so, the White Wolf High Priest and his wolves began their wait in Luoyang. Instead of Xiao Yue being suppressed and Chang'an being recaptured, they were met with Lin Yi.

Upon seeing Lin Yi, the White Wolf High Priest and his wolves were somewhat afraid, but this was not Tuoba Yu's palace, but the Northern Wei imperial palace. As the High Priest, he could not be afraid.

Besides the White Wolf Grand Sacrifice, other offerings in the palace also appeared.

There was a monk with a turban, named Lingzhi Shangren, who was a first-class practitioner in seclusion.

There was also an elderly man in a Taoist robe, whose title was Master Zhengming. This monk and the Taoist priest were both guards of the imperial palace.

The fact that these two people entered the palace to take up their posts can be seen as a symbol of the friendly relationship between the Buddhist and Taoist sects in the Northern Territory and the imperial court.

In fact, in the eyes of most practitioners, mortals are like weeds. Whether Han or non-Han people rule the land is none of their business.

This is the mainstream view; cultivators like Song Yun who betray their sects are a minority.

After all, cultivators pursue the supreme path, and the struggles of the mortal world are just fleeting clouds in the eyes of enlightened masters, and there is no need to take them too seriously.

There's not much point in discussing right and wrong here; it's just that they've now placed themselves on the opposite side of Lin Yi in order to protect the palace.

Lin Yi's trip was solely for the Dragon Wolf King. He killed Gou Quan as well, as he saw him, and he didn't want to make enemies of anyone else.

However, others don't think so.

The White Wolf High Priest and the monk and Taoist priest began to attack Lin Yi together. With the help of his teammates, Gou Quan became much bolder.

That's why they say a dog relies on its master's power; even the Dragon Wolf King harbored ulterior motives.

Lin Yi is indeed terrifying, but can he really defeat so many Rank 1 cultivators?

With him and Gou Quan included, there are five of them. No matter how fierce Lin Yi is, he's still just one person, right?

Moreover, with the palace in turmoil, the army guarding the palace will definitely be mobilized, and the other four grand priests will also hold their rituals. At that time, how could we not kill Lin Yi?

For a moment, the Dragon Wolf King felt he was invincible again.

Lin Yi ignored the monks and Taoists who had rushed out, kicked away the white giant wolf that pounced at him, and suddenly burst out with strength, flashing behind Gou Quan and grabbing Gou Quan's tail.

Gou Quan instinctively turned around to bite back, only to be met with Lin Yi's demon-slaying sword.

The Demon-Slaying Sword emitted an excited buzzing sound, which also carried a provocation towards the Dragon Wolf King.

"Come here!"

Dragon Wolf King: "..."

That's what you call a dog relying on its master's power!

The demon-slaying sword is just a weapon; of course, it needs a master.

When Gou Quan saw the red greatsword coming down towards his head, he forgot all about biting people and reacted with lightning speed, dodging with his head while letting out a fierce bark.

This is his signature skill; even a first-rank cultivator would feel fear upon hearing it.

Gou Quan's bite really hurts. Even if it's not fatal, one bite will definitely make you wish you were dead.

But now, Lin Yi is not afraid of him biting, nor is he afraid of him yelling.

The Demon-Slaying Sword continued its momentum, heading straight for the dog's head. At that moment, realizing the danger, Gou Quan disregarded its tail, let out a miserable cry, and suddenly broke off its own tail, rushing out.

He'd even give up his testicles, let alone his tail.

Lin Yi had only heard of geckos shedding their tails, but he never expected that dogs would have such a clever trick.

Looking at the bloody dog ​​tail in his hand, Lin Yi tossed it aside with a look of disgust.

In just a short while, he was surrounded.

In the capital, the other four major sacrifices also arrived in full force, with the Tiger and Leopard sacrifices both arriving on giant tigers and leopards.

Both men were strong and looked very robust.

The Snake-Handling Grand Priest is an old woman holding a cane. She has withered skin but a head of thick, black hair.

The Xuan Ying Grand Sacrifice was soaring in the sky. Lin Yi looked up and realized that it was a familiar face, the Eagle King he had met in the White Lotus Immortal Cave.

As one of the nine demon kings, the Eagle King has always loved freedom and refused to serve the human race.

He even accidentally killed Xiao Zhao's messenger because he saw his own clansmen working for someone else.

However, many people in the Northern Wei Dynasty worshipped him as a god, praying to him day and night and offering him tributes, which is why he became their totem.

But he doesn't need a grand sacrifice; he himself is the grand sacrifice.

His coming to help out now is definitely not a betrayal of his original aspiration for freedom, but rather because these people have given him so much.

Seeing so many powerful figures surrounding him, Lin Yi was not surprised but laughed.

He had been worried about where to find monsters to grind, but now, the other side has sent a team right to his doorstep.

With teammates, Gou Quan became much bolder and started barking wildly at Lin Yi. Judging from his expression, he didn't say anything nice.

The skill of barking is not so simple for those born in the Year of the Dog. The greatest effect of this skill is that the more allies there are, the stronger the spirit of survival becomes, and the stronger the deterrent effect of the barking becomes, which can plunge people into a deeper level of fear.

This psychological tactic wasn't very effective against Lin Yi.

Lin Yi's cowardice was due to the difference in cultivation level. Now that he has a significant lead in cultivation level and the Demon-Slaying Sword in his hand, why would he be afraid of the barking of a dog?

Seeing how cheerfully he was shouting, Lin Yi ignored everyone and rushed towards Gou Quan.

This is called prioritizing attacks on dogs with taunting abilities.

The other high priests, of course, could not allow Lin Yi to act so aggressively. In an instant, tigers and leopards roared, eagles soared into the sky, and under the summoning of the snake-controlling priest's staff, many venomous snakes swam towards Lin Yi.

The scene of being besieged by so many top-tier experts was truly magnificent.

The main force that will take action is still the Dragon Wolf King.

He transformed into a colossal statue ten zhang tall once more, and with one claw, he swept across the sky and struck Lin Yi.

Even with so many people working together, they couldn't stop Lin Yi's killing intent towards Gou Quan, as Gou Quan's speed was ultimately no match for Lin Yi's.
