I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

However, he doesn't have many friends, so he doesn't need to send out many invitations.

The remaining task was naturally to repair Crimson Flame Mountain. Su Xian'er said she had arranged for the Tushan Fox Clan to help, but for such an important matter, he still had to supervise the work.

Then there's the injury that can't be treated evenly.

When his cultivation level was too low, he couldn't save her, but now Lin Yi's methods are extraordinary, and he can even use immortal techniques. The once incurable disease has become a minor problem that can be solved easily, and there is no need to worry about it at all.

What troubled him more was how to tell Guan Buping about his relationship with Qu Jing. However, this day was bound to come sooner or later, and Lin Yi had no way to escape it. So he went to the side hall first and waited for the two of them to wake up.

The others in the Crystal Palace also got busy. As the first wife, Jiang Linglong had to worry about many important matters related to the marriage.

Su Xian'er was going to impart her experience in fusing the zodiac god positions to Bai Lianxian. During this process, the two younger sisters who were trying to fight in the palace but were completely outmaneuvered by Jiang Linglong could also have a chance to exchange feelings.

As for He Dong and Qu Jing, they naturally stayed by Jiang Linglong's side. They couldn't let her handle the household affairs alone, so they had to help out.

Only the carefree Yu Xue was having a great time playing in the water, not taking the possibility that Lin Yi might be her father too seriously.

At this very moment, on the official road leading southwest from Xiangzhou, a caravan was slowly making its way forward.

The caravan's guards were all physically strong and clearly not to be trifled with. Along the way, any savvy bandits hadn't dared to provoke the caravan, while those without any sense...

are dead.

This caravan was none other than Liu Jian's men.

They were, after all, rebels, and could not swagger through the streets; they could only use caravans as a cover.

The matter is now settled, and they should head back.

In the carriage in the center of the caravan sat two young girls, Wang Jinxuan and Xiaocao.

"Little Grass, do you think Master will forget about us?"

Before Xiaocao could answer, Wang Jinxuan said in a frantic tone, "They must have forgotten, otherwise why haven't they come looking for us yet? It's been three days!"

For a fleeting moment, Wang Jinxuan felt like he was a fake disciple.

Whose apprentice has been missing for so long and the master hasn't come looking for him?

Is this reasonable?

The key issue is that none of the master's wives have come looking for us. Could it be that they think they are a threat and are deliberately not coming to find us?

That's not the right way to think; the teachers' wives aren't bad people.

Did something happen to them?

Thinking of this, Wang Jinxuan became a little worried about Lin Yi again.

After all, Lin Yi had previously warned him that he had gotten himself into a lot of trouble. Although he was confident that he could defeat his opponent, he was worried that his opponent would harm the people around him.

If it were truly an attack by a powerful enemy, it would be quite reasonable for Lin Yi not to come looking for her.

"Don't be afraid, it's because of me."

Seeing the worry on Wang Jinxuan's face, Xiaocao spoke up to comfort him.

Everyone around Xiaocao knew that she had an abnormally low profile, so of course Xiaocao had no reason not to know it herself.

Actually, this feeling wasn't very obvious before. Although she was inconspicuous living in the village, people didn't really ignore her.

Just like the night she encountered Tiger Granny, her presence was indeed not high, but she was not ignored.

After she became Lin Yi's apprentice, this effect, which was easily overlooked, became significantly enhanced.

She knew Lin Yi was a very gentle and responsible person, but it was unreasonable for someone like him to forget to prepare food for the people he had adopted.

It was around that time that she became aware of her uniqueness and gradually adapted to it.

After Jiang Linglong taught her the art of body refinement, Xiaocao once again felt her presence weaken.

She could even lie in wait and ambush Lin Yi, only to be discovered by him when she made her move.

If she doesn't take action, Lin Yi will have a hard time finding her.

This indicates that her presence has been weakening, and this time, she also sensed that her uniqueness had changed again.

That happened after she said she wanted to break up with Liu Jian.

She could feel that something had changed about her, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

She didn't know what the changes in her body were. It wasn't until three days had passed and no one came to rescue them that Xiaocao realized the effect was probably to make people forget about her!

Before, the closer I was to her, the easier it was to overlook her, but I would remember her after we parted. Now, I can forget her even when we are far apart.

It's unclear whether Lin Yi simply couldn't think of her for a moment or had completely forgotten about her.

If it's the latter, she will be sad.

I never expected that Wang Jinxuan would also be affected. Could it be that he was too close to her and got implicated?

Wang Jinxuan was arrested while he was watching the drama unfold.

Her cultivation level wasn't high enough to fool Liu Jian's perception.

If Liu Jian hadn't initially focused his attention on Xiao Cao, he wouldn't have failed to notice Wang Jinxuan spying on him.

After guarding Xiaocao, he quickly discovered the little girl, and with a casual call, Wang Jinxuan was captured.

It was Xiaocao who spoke up; otherwise, Wang Jinxuan wouldn't be sitting comfortably in the carriage right now.

Originally, it would have been incredibly easy for Xiaocao to escape. She was skilled at stealth and had special abilities, so no matter how many people Liu Jian sent, they couldn't keep an eye on her.

However, adding Wang Jinxuan makes all the difference.

Xiao Cao either has to leave Wang Jinxuan behind and go alone, or she'll have to be locked up with him.

After much deliberation, Xiaocao still decided not to abandon Wang Jinxuan.

Having spent so much time together, they were as close as sisters. Xiaocao was worried that Liu Jian would discover she was missing while she was on her way to get help, and Wang Jinxuan might be in trouble then.

She didn't dare gamble Wang Jinxuan's life on whether her father was cold-blooded enough; in her opinion, her father definitely was.

For the sake of his great cause, he has been away from home for so many years without ever returning with a single letter, leaving his widow and orphan to be bullied in the village.

The little grass can understand him, but it will not forgive him.

So everyone went their own way. She went to cultivate diligently with Lin Yi, hoping to slay demons and monsters in the future, so that there would be fewer victims like her mother in the world.

As for her father, he can do whatever he wants, whether he wants to achieve great things or become a king; it's none of her business anymore.

The father-daughter bond between the two has become very weak; their relationship is solely based on blood ties.

After her father passes away, she will do what she is supposed to do, but that's all.

Liu Jian didn't think so. No matter what, Xiaocao was his daughter. He hadn't fulfilled his responsibilities as a father all these years, which was his fault. But Xiaocao had his blood in her veins, so how could he just sever their relationship?

He imprisoned Xiaocao, not to harm her, but to reason with her. If reasoning didn't work in one day, he would try for several more.

Besides reasoning, he also planned to let Xiaocao live a good life. Once she got used to a life of luxury, she probably wouldn't want to leave.

Now that he had finished what he needed to do, he naturally wanted to take Xiaocao back to Yizhou and let her know the hardships he had endured over the years.

One day, she will understand.

The caravan traveled westward, like a star in the sky.

"Samsung has finally returned to its rightful place."

On the distant sea, Yan Qingqiu looked up at the starry sky and saw the new changes in the three stars of Sha Po Lang.

The once gloomy Po Jun suddenly shone brightly. Although his identity was still unknown, Yan Qingqiu could roughly deduce which faction Po Jun belonged to.

Po Jun headed southwest, where the descendants of Liu Song were entrenched.

The three stars devouring the Purple Star was fate, but now the Purple Star is gone, and the three stars are shining brightly on their own. This celestial phenomenon is truly hard to understand.

The future is uncertain, and even Yan Qingqiu, who is skilled at observing the secrets of heaven, cannot know everything that is going on in the world. However, judging from the current situation, the three stars do not have Ziwei to devour, but they are all shining brightly. The most likely thing next is that the three stars will fight each other.

Currently, the most powerful star is the Greedy Wolf Star in the North, and the most promising star is the Broken Army Star in the West. Only the Seven Killings Star, although it suddenly shines brightly, seems to lack staying power. Its brightness and dimness are uncertain, as if a calamity is about to befall it.

This conveniently provided Yan Qingqiu with an opportunity to get involved.

"But I beat her so badly before, and now I'm going to cooperate with her. I'm afraid she won't be able to accept it!"

Yan Qingqiu touched the five dragon scales in his hand and began to ponder the strategy again.

"Lin Yi, Lin Yi, you absolutely must not get involved this time."

The thought that Lin Yi might cause trouble gave Yan Qingqiu a headache.

Is there any way to prevent Lin Yi from interfering in her affairs?

Lin Yi was unaware that Yan Qingqiu had once again set his sights on him, and was currently plotting against Guan Buping!

Guan Buping and Bao Sanniang had been unconscious for a long time, but they finally woke up.

Having been under Su Xian'er's spell and asleep for so long, when they woke up, they felt a sharp pain in their heads, like waking up after a hangover, with a headache and thirst.

After they realized what had happened, the first thing they did was look at each other and breathe a sigh of relief when they found that the other person was alright.

"You're finally awake. How are you feeling now?"

Only after hearing Lin Yi's voice did the two of them notice him.

Guan Buping carefully assessed the situation before saying, "It's nothing serious, just a little dizzy. I'll be fine after sitting down. What time is it? How's our poison?"

Guan Buping didn't know how he had fallen asleep. Only when he remembered this did he quickly ask about the time.

If there's anything else he absolutely has to do in his life, it's marrying Bao Sanniang.

Therefore, he pays more attention to time and poison.

Lin Yi casually said, "How's the poison? You'll know if you take off your clothes and take a look, won't you?"

Hearing him say that, Guan Buping knew that Lin Yi was probably alright, otherwise he wouldn't have sounded so relaxed. But since it was a matter of life and death, he still took off his clothes. Sure enough, the wounds were still there, but they were slowly healing. As for the red thread wrapped around his arm, it had disappeared.

Bao Sanniang also wanted to see her own clothes, but with Lin Yi there, she was too embarrassed to take them off. She could only stare at Guan Buping, which made Guan Buping feel a little ashamed.

They had agreed to get married, but the two of them were still behaving themselves and hadn't done anything inappropriate.

To ease the elderly woman's embarrassment, Guan Buping dared not look at Bao Sanniang and turned to Lin Yi, saying, "This time, it's all thanks to you again."

"Brother Guan, you're being too polite. What kind of relationship do we have, right?"

As he spoke, Lin Yi sat down on the edge of Guan Buping's bed.

His enthusiastic demeanor made Guan Buping feel somewhat strange.
