I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

They are not enemies, and there is no need to antagonize them.

However, in the last moment before he withdrew his divine sense, he saw Yu Huan, and a middle-aged scholar beside Yu Huan.

The scholar looked like an ordinary mortal, but Yu Huan treated him with exceptional respect, even bending down slightly when flying.

There's probably only one person he could treat like this.

The ancestor of the Yu family!

He actually fell for Yan Qingqiu's trick?

Unbeknownst to Cang Erzi, the Yu family patriarch initially dared not come out.

Upon hearing Yu Huan's message, he almost considered following the example of Penglai, closing his mountain gates and entering seclusion.

Danger! Extreme danger!

But he wasn't intimidated by a few words; he was just timid and still thinking.

Only when he noticed the strange behavior in Qingqiu did he realize that he had been tricked and that the person was just bluffing.

But since the other party mentioned him, they must know something about him.

In that case, we absolutely cannot leave any survivors!

However, Qingqiu disappeared too quickly, taking advantage of the sea to vanish rapidly.

The ocean is boundless, and even mortal gods cannot scan every drop of seawater to see if it is correct. A real opportunity only lasts for a short while, and once missed, it is gone forever.

"Hmph, she can't escape. I'd like to see where she comes from."

The Yu family patriarch calculated with his fingers and saw clouds rising, as if stars were twinkling within them.

But the more he counted, the more his ancestor frowned.

He couldn't calculate it; he couldn't see anything, only a chaotic mess.

Clearly, that person used a method to conceal the secrets of heaven.

How could the Yu family patriarch be willing to accept this? He intensified his efforts, determined to break through this barrier.

His eyes were as bright as day, as if they were sunlight piercing through the fog.

Finally, the mist shrouding the starry illusion grew thinner and thinner, and just as they were about to see through Yan Qingqiu's background, suddenly, a ferocious fox rushed out of the mist, startling the Yu family patriarch into shouting.

The spell broke, and the Yu family patriarch spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Ancestor!"

Yu Huan was shocked. He couldn't see the galaxy illusion; he only saw the ancestor calculating. As he calculated, the ancestor suddenly vomited blood.

This appearance clearly indicates that his attempt to spy failed, and he suffered a backlash.

But the ancestor already possessed the strength of a Celestial Lord, so how could this be?

The so-called Immortal Lord is a human immortal who has cultivated to the extreme.

It is also above the first rank, the highest realm that can be cultivated in the mortal world.

People think that the first rank is the highest, but in fact, the first rank is only the first step.

The ultimate realm of the first rank is the level of Lin Yi, which is called transcending the ordinary and entering sainthood, or the supreme being.

This is not calculated based on the actions of the Dao, but rather on the level of one's spiritual attainment.

For example, Lin Yi has over 20,000 years of cultivation, yet his cultivation level is only at the first rank. Normally, someone with Liang Wannian's cultivation level should be called a human immortal.

Human immortals refer to immortals in the human world, while celestial immortals are immortals in the heavens. Human immortals have survived nine tribulations but have not ascended to the celestial realm, so they have never seen the true celestial realm and are naturally somewhat different from celestial immortals.

When a human immortal cultivates to the extreme, as long as they do not ascend to heaven, they are no longer considered a celestial being and remain a human immortal. However, they are qualitatively different from other human immortals and are thus called an immortal lord.

Of course, even among those at the pinnacle of cultivation, the strength of Immortal Lords varies. There are only four known Immortal Lords in the mortal realm, who are the ancestors of the four great Immortal Realms.

If one wishes to cultivate further, it is beyond the reach of this world.

Dragons cannot be raised in ponds; only ascension can achieve this.

Besides human immortals and celestial immortals, there are also gods.

Gods and immortals are different. There are many wild gods in the human world. If they have a certain amount of power and can accept offerings, they can be called gods. But one must have the corresponding power to be called an immortal.

The power of human immortals and celestial immortals comes from their own cultivation and understanding of the Dao, while the power of deities comes from incense offerings. The two paths are different, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

But regardless of which route you take, the strength is roughly the same.

As a Celestial Lord, the Yu family ancestor possessed great supernatural powers and boundless magic. He could see everything in the world at a glance. Even if he couldn't see clearly, he shouldn't have suffered such a great backlash.

Unless, of course, Yan Qingqiu has a very powerful background, so powerful that even a Celestial Lord cannot bear such a secret.

How could Yu Huan not be shocked?

Fortunately, the Yu family patriarch only coughed up a mouthful of blood. He wiped it away casually and said calmly, "Don't panic, I'm fine."

Yu Huan felt a little relieved and quickly asked, "Just who is that person?"

"Nine-tailed fox."

"The old patriarch of the Yu family said in a deep voice."

"Just a nine-tailed fox?"

Yu Huan didn't understand.

Foxes only produce one tail every thousand years, and even a nine-tailed fox only has nine thousand years of cultivation. At most, it can only reach the realm of transcending the mortal realm or the initial stage of becoming a human immortal. Even if it reaches the peak of the Immortal Lord realm, it would not be able to turn against the Yu family patriarch, who is also an Immortal Lord.

"She is no ordinary nine-tailed fox. There's no need to ask any more questions."

Yu Huan felt a chill run down her spine, realizing that something major secret might be involved.

Little did they know, even the Yu family patriarch himself hadn't seen this.

He only saw a fox, so he had no idea what Yan Qingqiu's background was, but it was certain that he had an extraordinary origin.

If you say you don't know, how embarrassing would that be in front of your juniors?

However, a shadow also fell over the heart of the Yu family patriarch.

The nine-tailed fox is a symbol of misfortune. He's entangled with a nine-tailed fox, and this isn't just any ordinary nine-tailed fox; the trouble could be much bigger...

Chapter 439 is all?

When Lin Yi's gaze fell on Yan Qingqiu, the East Sea was calm and peaceful.

Yan Qingqiu lay at the highest point of Qingqiu, looking up at the sky, looking serene and content.

The bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the island beneath us is slowly moving. The scene is truly dreamlike and beautiful.

"This vixen's charm is damnably alluring."

Lin Yi sighed inwardly. Every time he peeked at Yan Qingqiu through the Demon-Slaying Manual, he could see all sorts of interesting scenes, like staged photos.

If Lin Yi hadn't believed that the Demon-Slaying Manual's ability to detect others' secrets wouldn't have been discovered, he would have thought that Yan Qingqiu, that fox, was doing it on purpose.

But there is also the possibility that a beautiful fox looks good from any angle.

Lin Yi only watched for ten seconds before switching to someone else.

Jiang Linglong was still traveling south, and the journey was relatively smooth.

I silently made plans for the rest of the trip.

After being so busy for so long, it's time to take a break and give myself a few days off. It's a good way to balance work and rest.

He planned to spend two days with Qu Jing first, and then go see He Dongbai and Lianxian, and also bring Xiaocao and Wang Jinxuan into the world.

Finally, they went to find Jiang Linglong and Yu Xue and headed north.

Firstly, we can try to use Hua Nianrou's special physique to lift the curse on Jiang Linglong. Secondly, having more people will help Xiao Yue complete her great undertaking.

Of all these people, Lin Yi favored Xiao Yue the most, even more than Xiao Se.

Xiao Se is still too inexperienced to be the ruler of a country, but Xiao Yue already has the makings of a ruler.

She has experienced the hardships of life, so she knows how to sympathize with the common people, and she also has lofty ambitions. She has already embarked on the path of struggle, daring to fight and fight.

Luck certainly played a large part in her success; Lin Yi always caused trouble while she benefited from the chaos.

But Lin Yi felt that her courage to take that step was even more important.

Lin Yi had long been disgusted by this dark world, but he had been too busy to deal with it himself before. Now that his apprentice had become successful, he naturally wanted to help him without reservation.

However, since he was a cultivator, it was indeed inappropriate for him to directly intervene in human warfare.

Lin Yi wasn't afraid of the so-called rules Lu Quanzhen mentioned, but rather felt that if Lu Quanzhen really intervened, no one else would have a chance.

If he grows bigger, one stomp of him would be enough to overwhelm an army of hundreds of thousands.

In that case, the war would become a matter of him leading his men to seize territory, and the fruits of victory would not be won by Xiao Yue and her warriors through their own struggle, so they would not be able to hold onto them.

Those whose virtue does not match their position will surely suffer the consequences.

Besides, Lin Yi felt that his current strength was not yet at the level of sweeping the world, so he didn't need to suffer this backlash of luck.

The reason he insisted on killing Xiao Zhao was simply because he had long disliked Xiao Zhao and couldn't stand it anymore. He would rather be struck by lightning than let Xiao Zhao go out and harm people again.

I just don't know why the lightning hasn't struck yet. Does divine retribution have a cooldown period?

Anyway, divine retribution isn't instantaneous, so Lin Yi wasn't in a hurry since it hadn't come yet.

As is customary, after scanning through all the demons and monsters on the Demon-Slaying Manual, Lin Yi held Qu Jing and fell asleep peacefully.

As for Su Xian'er, she was still sitting cross-legged on the ground trying to communicate with the Ruyi Pearl.

The bed was only so big, and Lin Yi wanted to hold Qu Jing to sleep, so he couldn't give it to her. Therefore, Su Xian'er had to sleep on the floor.

Su Xian'er felt wronged, but she dared not say it.

This man was terrifying when he was in a frenzy, and she didn't know if she could handle it, so she had no choice but to be obedient.

Su Xian'er tried to communicate with the Ruyi Pearl through her mind until midnight, but the pearl showed no intention of returning with her, so she gave up completely.

It is always the pearl that chooses its own master, rather than the master forcibly refining the pearl.

Her mistake was letting Baozhu acknowledge her master in the first place. Once the meat bun is gone, how can it be taken back?

"Forget it, it's all fate. I won't struggle anymore."
