I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Lin Yi didn't explain much, but his attitude was so firm that those who wanted to persuade him failed and had no choice but to retreat to the Dragon King Palace.

Lin Yi's Heavenly Eye had already seen several beams of immortal light approaching the Crystal Palace. Even if Qu Jing led her people to break through, they probably wouldn't escape the encirclement. It would be better to let them stay in the Dragon King's Palace.

At Lin Yi's insistence, Qu Jing and the others entered the Dragon King's Palace.

Just before the palace gates closed, Jiang Linglong stepped out, formed a hand seal, activated the formation, and completely sealed off the Dragon King's Palace.

Why did you stay?

Lin Yi guessed Jiang Linglong's purpose, but asked the question knowingly.

Jiang Linglong sat silently beside Lin Yi and said, "There are some secrets I shouldn't have kept from you anymore. It's all my fault that you've ended up in this situation. If only I had told you sooner..."

"It's no use telling me earlier. My blood has been taken, and you can't track her down. Even if you told me, what good would it do?"

Lin Yi forcefully interrupted her, immediately shocking Jiang Linglong.

"You've already guessed the cause and effect?"

Jiang Linglong truly admired Lin Yi's reasoning abilities. What was even more remarkable was Lin Yi's unconditional trust in her, even when the evidence wasn't very conclusive.

With a husband like this, what more could one ask for in life?

At this moment, Jiang Linglong finally realized her mistake.

It doesn't matter what she was like in the past, or what stories she had.

The important thing is that she should trust Lin Yi.

"Actually, something happened that day, but I haven't told you..."

At this moment, Jiang Linglong had made up her mind. Whether she was afraid or guilty, she had to be honest with Lin Yi.

If Lin Yi dislikes her because of this, it's not too late for her to pursue and please him. Trying to cover it up is her biggest mistake.

So, Jiang Linglong slowly recounted her first encounter with the shadowy figure and how she was subsequently tricked and plunged into a nightmare. Jiang Linglong told everything in great detail, without missing a single clue.

“I’ve been dreaming a lot lately. Sometimes I’m asleep, sometimes I’m just dozing off, and I see another version of myself.”

Jiang Linglong wasn't sure what happened in her dream, but she found it strange, so she told Lin Yi about it.

"In my dream, I was not a princess of the Qi state, but a princess of a small clan called the Yuezhi. The Yuezhi were exterminated by the tyrant of the Shang dynasty, and I was also killed by that tyrant."

But in my dream, I couldn't see his face clearly.

This was the content of my first dream. Later, I dreamt that I was sealed in a coffin. It was so stuffy inside that I had to fight tooth and nail to finally climb out.

Lin Yi: "..."

So, in your dream later, was it the start of the second episode of a TV series?

Lin Yi silently complained in his heart. Of course, as a gentle listener, he wouldn't complain casually; he just pondered silently.

The phrase "tyrant of the Shang Dynasty" is easy to pinpoint to one person, isn't it?

If it crawls out of the coffin, does that mean it has become a zombie?

You became a zombie from that time, so why did you always think you were a princess of Qi before?

Lin Yi felt that the subsequent plot would be very important.

Sure enough, Jiang Linglong said that in the dream she had, after being resurrected, she inexplicably contracted a bloodlust disease.

In order to control her desires, she could only temporarily relieve them with the blood of animals when she could not control herself, while investigating why she had this problem.

After making inquiries from various sources, she learned that it was related to that tyrant. Rumor had it that the tyrant possessed a demonic sword that could keep people from dying, which was very similar to her symptoms.

National and personal grudges converged, leading Jiang Linglong in her dream to vow to repay blood with blood.

Jiang Linglong, who was having a dream, always felt that something was wrong, but as an observer, she could not change the course of the dream.

In her dream, she realized that she couldn't defeat the tyrant on her own.

The most promising is Xiqi, which is developing rapidly.

Although Xiqi revered the Shang dynasty as its master, Ji Chang, the Marquis of Xibo, was a very ambitious and capable man.

After careful consideration, Jiang Linglong concluded that Ji Chang could be considered a capable ruler.

With her assistance, he will surely reach even greater heights.

However, Xiqi was different from Dayuezhi. Dayuezhi was a matriarchal society where women were respected, while Xiqi did not have this custom, and women rarely served in official positions.

So, Jiang Linglong disguised herself as a man and changed her name.

She was naturally unwilling to change her surname, Jiang, as that was her bottom line. Moreover, she wanted to always remember the Yuezhi people, so she added a metaphor to her name.

She is a child of the Yuezhi. The Yuezhi are now like a waning moon, but as long as she is there, there will eventually be a time when they will turn from waning to waxing.

Because the crescent moon is like a tooth, after she disguised herself as a man, she was called Jiang Ziya!

"puff!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi nearly coughed up blood.

What the hell!

Oh crap!

So what the hell is your name, Jiang Ziya?

Chapter 479 utterly vulnerable

When Jiang Linglong revealed the alias she used in his dream, Lin Yi was stunned.

The world-famous Jiang Ziya was actually my wife's past life?

Good guy, I just call it good guy!

Lin Yi considered himself to have seen all sorts of situations by now, but this was one he had never seen before!

Of course, it's not certain that Jiang Linglong's past life was Jiang Ziya, since it was just a dream. But there's a 70-80% chance that it was real, otherwise why would Jiang Linglong dream of things she had no idea about?

Even the symbolism of Ziya is known; who else could it be but him?

Lin Yi felt a chill run down his spine and couldn't help but have a strange premonition.

He may one day become entangled in the mystery of the Investiture of the Gods.

This was not a baseless statement by Lin Yi, but a well-intentioned one.

This wasn't the first time he had been associated with King Zhou of Shang.

He had seen the memories of the Thousand Illusion Ghost Princess and saw King Zhou of Shang in them, but that King Zhou had no face.

Now, Jiang Linglong is also involved with King Zhou, and similarly, in her dream, King Zhou has no face.

Thinking about the war between humans and gods, Lin Yi felt that King Zhou was in deep trouble, and the fact that the Zhou Dynasty had lasted ten times longer than usual might also be a big secret.

Just as Lin Yi was shocked by the fact that Jiang Linglong was suspected to be the reincarnation of Jiang Ziya, the Crystal Palace suddenly shook.

The enemy has arrived.

Lin Yi: "..."

Are you in such a hurry to die? Your wife's story is only just getting to the exciting part!

The Crystal Palace shook violently, naturally because someone was attacking its defenses. Jiang Linglong, no longer able to talk to Lin Yi about her dream, drew her sword and prepared to fight.

She knew that the enemy's target was her, and she had to stay outside, perhaps leaving a glimmer of hope for the people in the Dragon King's Palace.

As for Lin Yi, he has been cursed, and his chances of survival are slim.

Jiang Linglong still wanted to give it a try. Curses are not insurmountable. Most curses in the world are similar; all you need to do is kill the one who cast the curse.

So during this time, Jiang Linglong was actually quite looking forward to the shadowy figure coming to her door.

At that time, she would risk her own life to kill that mysterious figure and break the curse for Lin Yi.

She has already come to this realization.

But Lin Yi refused to enter the Dragon King's Palace, and there was nothing she could do about it.

Now that things have come to this, she hopes that everything will unfold as fate had predicted by the shadowy figure.

If she wants to defeat the shadow, rage is the only way. At that time, she may lose control, but the fact that Lin Yi was able to kill her means that she can break Lin Yi's curse.

Jiang Linglong had already come up with a script for herself, unaware that Lin Yi was not under any curse.

Seeing Jiang Linglong's murderous look, Lin Yi even grabbed her hand to calm her down.

"Since things have come to this point, I'm not going to pretend anymore."

Several True Lords outside were already banging on the door. Lin Yi certainly wouldn't let Jiang Linglong make a move; she only had five thousand years of cultivation and was definitely no match for him.

Lin Yi hadn't forgotten that he still had to guard against Jiang Linglong turning evil.

That fortune teller was truly skilled; he predicted all of these things.

If he hadn't used cheat codes, Jiang Linglong would have inevitably met the same fate.

But what can you do when he's a cheater?

Perhaps because he came from another dimension, the cause and effect here cannot be attributed to him. The Venerable Miaofa's attempt to weaken him with a curse can only be described as him narrowing his own path.

"Open the door!"

Lin Yi suddenly became very energetic and spoke to Jiang Linglong.

The food delivery has arrived; it's not good to keep having people knock on the door.

Jiang Linglong was stunned. She suddenly realized something was wrong. Was Lin Yi experiencing a final burst of energy before death?

This doesn't seem like it either.

At this moment, she should be full of energy and vitality, showing no signs of exhaustion whatsoever.

Jiang Linglong wasn't stupid; she quickly came up with another possibility.

This guy has been faking illness!

Thinking of this, Jiang Linglong was both angry and happy.

She was angry because Lin Yi had fooled her, but naturally happy that Lin Yi was unharmed.

Overwhelmed by a multitude of emotions, she was at a loss for what to do and could only numbly follow Lin Yi's advice to activate the outer defenses of the Crystal Palace.
