I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

When she said she wouldn't hold back, she was warning Lin Yi that he had to go all out.

Why would she show kindness when she was an enemy?

Lin Yi believes the root of the problem lies in the phrase "I understand".

I don't know what Jueying misunderstood, but this seems to be a good thing.

Soon, Jueying disappeared into the shadows.

Lin Yi knew she hadn't left yet, so he added, "I'll be looking for you in fifteen minutes, so hide well!"

Jueying: "..."

Are you playing hide-and-seek with me?

She promised that she would never let Lin Yi find her!

Chapter 488 My Master Got Married, But I Wasn't the Bride

Jueying confidently went to hide.

Seeing that Lin Yi was completely unfazed, Xiao Yue became nervous.

"Master, can you really find her?"

"Don't worry, she can't escape my grasp."

Xiao Yue didn't know what the Five Finger Mountain was all about, but she didn't ask. Seeing how confident Lin Yi was, she felt much more relaxed.

Without the pressure of life and death, she became a bit love-struck again.

"Master, did you know I was in danger and came to save me on purpose, or have you been protecting me in secret all along?"

The girl's bright, watery eyes stared straight at Lin Yi, her emotions undisguised.

Lin Yi felt a chill run down his spine. This rebellious disciple, what do you intend to do to your master!

Wasn't the hug last time enough?

“I didn’t know you were in danger. I only came to see you because I heard that someone was targeting people related to me.”

"Speaking of which, your assassination attempt was also due to my involvement."

"I see..."

Xiao Yue wasn't upset at all; on the contrary, she thought the assassin leader had great taste.

What does this tell us?

Everyone thinks she and Lin Yi have a close relationship!

"You are not afraid?"

Lin Yi realized that he didn't know much about his little apprentice.

I used to think she was brave, intelligent, and sincere, but now I realize that this apprentice is very strange.

"With my master protecting me, what do I have to fear?"

Lin Yi: "..."

What you said makes a lot of sense, and I can't refute it.

Lin Yi wouldn't help Xiao Yue with challenges of normal difficulty, but an assassin with 80,000 years of cultivation—something clearly beyond his limits—was something Lin Yi would never allow to harm Xiao Yue.

However, ideas are one thing, but if this apprentice loses his sense of caution, it would be like pulling up seedlings to help them grow.

"Can your teacher stay by your side and protect you every single moment?"

Lin Yi shattered Xiao Yue's illusions, saying ruthlessly, "A person can only rely on themselves. Only when you become strong can you face any challenge without fear. Do you understand?"

"I know, I won't rely on my master too much."

Xiao Yue gave a cute smile and continued, "But it's okay to rely on Master occasionally, right?"

As she spoke, she hugged Lin Yi's arm and leaned against his shoulder.

Lin Yi: "..."

Traitor!

Lin Yi dodged quickly, preventing Xiao Yue from succeeding.

However, in order not to hurt Xiao Yue's feelings, Lin Yi still concealed it a little and said, "Be careful, my body is fragile now and cannot be touched easily."

It's not that Master won't give me a hug, it's just that Master is currently just a two-dimensional character.

Xiao Yue pursed her lips, knowing that Lin Yi was just fooling her!

However, she was not discouraged. Breaking the taboo relationship between master and disciple would definitely be a long process. As long as she worked hard, she would eventually wear her master down!

"Then next time Master comes in his true form, can I have a hug?"

Xiao Yue blinked her innocent big eyes and said, seemingly just trying to be cute and get closer to her master, but she was, after all, a grown-up beauty.

Men and women should not touch each other; how can they easily hug and embrace?

Lin Yi also knew what I, Xiao Yue, was thinking.

He didn't want to hurt Xiao Yue's feelings and make her sad, but he also didn't want to break the taboo relationship between master and disciple.

He has already done such a thing to Qu Jing, and now his apprentice is doing this to him. Could this be retribution for betraying his master and ancestors?

孽 孽!

Lin Yi sighed inwardly and said, "My true form is still in Xiangzhou. Oh, by the way, I have some good news to tell you. I'm getting married on the sixteenth of next month."

"what!"

Xiao Yue was stunned on the spot.

She had been thinking about how to get Lin Yi to return to secular life, but she never expected that Lin Yi would be getting married.

Ultimately, it's because she didn't understand her mysterious master at all.

You can't blame her; Lin Yi used aliases when he traveled the world.

Using a pseudonym is one thing, but most of the demons and monsters who saw Lin Yi are dead.

Of course, it wasn't that no deeds were ever told. The story of Lin Yi killing the Celestial Master at Longhu Mountain was widely circulated, which greatly damaged the reputation of Longhu Mountain.

But many people who investigated Yi Lin found that he was like a ghost.

No one knows where he came from, who his teacher was, or his whereabouts.

For someone like that to gain widespread recognition in the cultivation world, a considerable amount of time is required.

However, Lin Yi has only been in this world for a little over a year, and has had even less time to accomplish great things, so many people are unaware that a top-tier expert has inexplicably appeared in the human world.

Of course, after Xiao Zhao's death, the situation changed.

However, Lin Yi did not reveal his identity when Xiao Zhao died, so many people only knew that Xiao Zhao was killed by a mysterious cultivator, but did not know who that cultivator was.

This is a true case of leaving without a trace, concealing one's merits and fame. How could Xiao Yue possibly find out about Lin Yi's whereabouts?

Xiao Yue didn't even know Lin Yi's identity, profession, or age.

Hearing that Lin Yi was getting married suddenly struck me like a thunderbolt.

My master got married, but I wasn't the bride.

Xiao Yue, who has always been optimistic, is having a mental breakdown at this moment.

"Congratulations, Master. But I probably won't be able to go at that time."

Chang'an is too far from Xiangzhou. It's not that she can't go there, but there are so many people in Chang'an. If she leaves, who knows what kind of trouble might arise.

While these people helped her achieve her goals, Xiao Yue was also hindered by them.

Secondly, Xiao Yue had a deep-seated resistance to Lin Yi's wedding.

It's not like she's getting married to Lin Yi, so why would she go there?

As long as she can't see it, just pretend there's no master's wife!

Xiao Yue felt a pang of bitterness welling up inside her, and her mood plummeted.

Lin Yi knew that his apprentice was probably truly heartbroken.

Oh, what a terrible thing I've done!

What a wonderful apprentice! I hope he doesn't get too caught up in heartbreak.

Lin Yi sighed inwardly, but still said to Xiao Yue, "It's alright if you can't come. I'll bring some of your master's wives to visit you later."

"it is good."

Xiao Yue mechanically answered, then suddenly realized what was happening, looked sharply at Lin Yi, and asked in a daze, "How many?"

Lin Yi accidentally let it slip, but thinking that Xiao Yue would eventually find out, he put aside his embarrassment and said directly, "You have five mistresses."

Xiao Yue: "..."

I never expected you to be this kind of master!

The perfect image in Xiao Yue's mind collapsed.

Of course, in this era, Xiao Yue didn't find anything strange about it.

Men in this era were like this: they had many wives and concubines, of course, the many were concubines, while they usually only had one principal wife.

If it were a modern perspective, people might not be able to accept a womanizer like Lin Yi.

Xiao Yue was furious because Lin Yi had already found her five mistresses, so why couldn't he have one more?

Feeling wronged, sad, and heartbroken.

Her subtle glances made Lin Yi feel a little guilty, as if he had become the unfaithful one.

"Judging by the time, she should be hiding well by now. I should go find her. Be careful."

Lin Yi found an excuse to slip away, but Xiao Yue didn't want to give up the chance to be alone with Lin Yi, so she took the initiative to say, "I'll go with you. What if she tries to assassinate me again while you're not here?"

There's nothing I can do about this clingy apprentice.

Lin Yi had no choice but to take her with him. He wasn't worried about Jueying coming to assassinate Xiao Yue again, but if there were other assassins, Lin Yi would be in deep trouble.
