I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

But Lingyi was confident that, based on her cultivation speed, she should be able to catch up with Lin Yi soon.

As for why Lin Yi's cultivation level had increased so drastically, from being unable to defeat her to being able to crush her...

Hmph, let's not consider that for now; the future looks promising anyway.

After regaining control of her body, Lingling quickly said to Lin Yi, "My sister has no ill intentions towards you. I have already advised her, so please don't be angry with her."

Seeing the Thousand Illusion Ghost Princess in front of him become gentle again, Lin Yi knew that the Thousand Illusion Ghost Princess was now under Zero's control.

Lingling is more friendly, but Lin Yi is more troubled.

Actually, Lin Yi was more natural around Zero One than Zero Zero.

Lin Yi's feelings towards Lingling were truly complicated.

No matter how justified his reasons were for killing Lingling, he still killed her.

This woman, who once lived under He Dong's skin and shared a bed with him, obeyed his every word and protected him with her life, also repeatedly threatened his personal safety and the personal safety of those around him.

The feud should have ended after Lingling's death, but she came back, still with one body and two souls.

One was friendly to him, and the other was hostile to him, which made it difficult for Lin Yi to be either hostile or friendly, so he had a headache.

But one can't hit a smiling face. Regardless of the past, Lingling's attitude was friendly now, and Lin Yi couldn't very well refuse to give her face.

"Don't worry, I don't blame her. I hope to put an end to past grievances here, what do you say?"

Hua Nianrou was completely stunned.

The main reason was that she had never seen a person with schizophrenia before, and she felt that the Thousand Illusion Ghost Princess in front of her was really extremely strange.

She seemed perfectly normal when Lin Yi wasn't there.

Lingling had no objection to Lin Yi's suggestion.

"I was wrong in the past, and I caused you a lot of trouble. I owe you this. If you need anything in the future, you can ask me for help."

Lingling got angry as soon as she heard this. She didn't care about settling her score with Lin Yi, but she clearly felt that Lingling didn't want to sever ties with Lin Yi, which was why she said she owed him something.

She's clearly still thinking about Lin Yi!

If she hadn't already promised Lingling, she would definitely have taken back control right now.

Lin Yi shook his head upon hearing this.

"You don't owe me anything. In the future, it's better if we don't have too much connection. You go on your path to immortality, and I'll go on my Bridge of Helplessness. Let's part ways and wish each other well."

Lin Yi's words were so heartless that Lingling felt a sharp pain in her heart, as if she were suffocating.

Lingyi's power increased even more from his anger, and he roared furiously in Lingling's heart.

"That ungrateful bastard, let me out, I'll tear him apart!"

Of course, Lingling wouldn't let her out to fight Lin Yi. Suppressing the bitterness in her heart, she asked, "Are you really that unwilling to have anything to do with me?"

She didn't say she wanted to pursue them, but just wanted to leave a lingering thought, letting herself know that there was still a connection between them.

Lin Yi didn't want to be so heartless, but from Lan Yu's words, Lin Yi already knew that he was a protector of the mortal realm, and those who had connections with him in the car would definitely suffer the mad revenge of the immortal realm.

The fact that Xiao Yue was assassinated has already been confirmed.

The wives had already faced a life-or-death decision once before, so Lin Yi didn't ask them what choice they would make this time.

But the Thousand Illusion Demon Princess is different.

Her relationship with Lin Yi wasn't very deep. If he clearly broke ties with Qianhuan Guiji, the Immortal Realm probably wouldn't want to waste its energy dealing with a peerless evil ghost with 15,000 years of cultivation.

Lin Yi had another reason for not wanting to involve Qianhuan Guiji: he had once peeked into Qianhuan Guiji's memories and learned that she was King Zhou's sister-in-law.

Regarding what happened back then, Qianhuan Guiji didn't know whether she had lost her memory or had been sealed away.

Lin Yi felt that the latter possibility was more likely.

Whatever the reason, Lin Yi didn't want Qianhuan Guiji to get involved.

Some secrets are deadly enough to know, let alone to be personally involved in them.

However, Lingling's reaction made things a bit difficult for Lin Yi.

He is the kind of person who doesn't like to make decisions for others under the guise of doing what's best for them, but this applies to people very close to him.

For those he wasn't so close to, Lin Yi's thought was to avoid causing them trouble.

only……

To say I'm not close to Lingling... well, that doesn't seem to be the case.

Are we close? Not at all.

For a moment, Lin Yi didn't know how to answer.

Fortunately, at that moment, someone came to the rescue.

"When you don't know much, the decisions you make may not be correct. It's better to wait and see. The truth will eventually come to light, and then you'll know what to do."

A clear female voice rang out; clearly, the words were addressed to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a pretty young girl.

It was indeed a young girl; she was wearing a pale yellow dress and looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old.

However, Lin Yi saw kindness in the face of this young girl.

Her demeanor was completely at odds with her appearance, especially the way she looked at Lin Yi, which was like a mother looking at her child, full of maternal warmth.

It wasn't just Lin Yi who thought this way; Hua Nianrou and Lingling both thought the same.

"You are……"

Lin Yi guessed who this person was.

She must be Zhang Jiao!

Sure enough, the girl smiled and said, "Pure Heaven Sect, Earth Mother Zhang Jiao, fellow Daoist, we meet again."

again?

Lin Yi was certain that he had a photographic memory, but when he saw Zhang Jiao, he couldn't recall when he had seen her before.

He thought about it carefully in his mind, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him.

"It's you!"

Lin Yi looked shocked.

He finally realized who the person in front of him was.

The mysterious girl who left him a copy of the Nine Records True Explanation after eating a bowl of his fried rice with eggs.

However, the girl was covered in mysterious talismans and had a blank expression, looking like a zombie beauty.

The girl now is bright and beautiful, full of vitality, and radiates maternal glow. Lin Yi didn't recognize her at first.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be surprised. A scholar should be looked at with new eyes after three days of separation. It's not a big deal that you don't recognize me now."

Zhang Jiao spoke gently and kindly, which made Lin Yi realize his loss of composure.

He cupped his hands and said, "I was out of line. Also, thank you for the true scripture you gave me, fellow Daoist. It has been of great help to me."

Although Zhang Jiao had just said that she was the Earth Mother of the Pure Heaven Sect, and the Pure Heaven Sect had always been an enemy, Lin Yi felt that Zhang Jiao and the Pure Heaven Sect might not actually be in cahoots, so he refrained from asking for the time being and thanked her first.

Zhang Jiao smiled and said, "Actually, you've helped me a lot, you just don't know it. But I know exactly how much help I've given you, so you don't need to thank me. I should be thanking you."

Lin Yi was completely bewildered. Even with his current profound cultivation, he still felt that the girl in front of him was unfathomable.

She's like a mystery.

It appeared mysteriously at first, and it has appeared mysteriously again now.

Lin Yi was also confused.

Sensing that Lin Yi had a lot of questions, Zhang Jiao didn't wait for him to speak before continuing, "This isn't a good place to talk. Why don't we all go inside and sit down, and have a good chat? It'll also be a thank-you gift from me to you two."

This left Lingling completely baffled.

When she came to Qingzhu Study, she met Zhang Jiao, but she only regarded her as an ordinary friend of Lin Yi and did not have much contact with her. What did Zhang Jiao have to thank her for?

Neither Lin Yi nor Lingling understood, and Hua Nianrou was even more confused. All three listened to Zhang Jiao and sat down in another place to talk.

After Lin Yi took his seat, Hua Nianrou sat to his left, Qianhuan Guiji sat to his right, and Zhang Jiao simply sat opposite him, thus surrounding Lin Yi.

Under Lingling's persistent, resentful gaze, Lin Yi even considered dispelling the spell and leaving just a paper figure there.

But considering that he was going to take Hua Nianrou with him this time, he could only pretend that nothing had happened for the time being and just hope that Zhang Jiao would hurry up.

Zhang Jiao did not disappoint Lin Yi; she got straight to the point as soon as she opened her mouth.

"The gifts I'm giving you are all the same, but they are the most suitable and necessary for you."

Hearing her description, Lin Yi couldn't help but wonder what this thing was.

Zhang Jiao didn't keep anyone in suspense. She took out a roll of parchment from her sleeve, which, when unfolded, looked like a map.

"what is this?"

Hua Nianrou was very interested in the ancient-looking scroll and couldn't help but ask questions.

Zhang Jiao quickly displayed the entire scroll in front of Lin Yi and replied, "This is a treasure map, the treasure map of the Heavenly Treasury!"

Chapter 493 The Secret Hidden in the Secrets

Upon hearing the words "attacking the heavens," Lin Yi knew that this matter was no simple one.

People in this era have great reverence for Heaven and would not easily choose a name that disrespects Heaven.

Therefore, the two characters "伐天" ​​(Fa Tian) are extremely special and are definitely not a coincidence. This Fa Tian Treasure Vault must be related to the struggle for destiny between immortals and mortals.

Lin Yi hadn't expected Zhang Jiao to reveal this so easily, which made him wonder if he was taking it too seriously.

Does it matter if more people know about it?

Perhaps sensing Lin Yi's thoughts, Zhang Jiao smiled and said, "You want many people to stay out of it, but from the moment they met you, they were no longer outsiders."

Whether they listen or not, they can't escape the situation. Knowing more will allow them to prepare earlier.

Hearing her say that, Lin Yi was certain that Zhang Jiao knew more than he did.
