Old TCM doctor Lin began to reminisce about his past self, when a drop of blood was the best tonic, with excellent effects.

That won't work now.

The power contained in his blood was too great; someone like Hua Nianrou, who had no cultivation, would probably die on the spot if she took a sip.

He doesn't have a good solution for Hua Nianrou's body right now; he can only take it slow and nurture her.

When he initially planned to have Hua Nianrou and Jiang Linglong harmonize their yin and yang to break the curse, he promised Hua Nianrou that he would heal her, and now he naturally couldn't go back on his word.

He also prescribed a lot of medicines to help her recover. He had previously killed people and robbed them of treasures, and he had left some of the spiritual herbs for Hua Nianrou.

Even after all this time, she is still so sickly.

It's really strange that they couldn't find anything wrong with my pulse.

Lin Yi was completely baffled, so he could only tell her to go to bed early and get up early.

Seeing this, Ah Qi couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

A person with true demon blood is sickly because human and demon blood are incompatible, and no amount of tonics will help.

Even if Lin Yi uses extremely yang substances, it can only temporarily relieve the symptoms, not cure the root cause.

She can only be completely cured if she completely abandons either her demonic or human bloodline.

Of course, she wouldn't tell Lin Yi about this. She had been Lin Yi's spy for so long, and Lin Yi turned around and destroyed the Jingtian Sect, but didn't give her any benefits at all.

Even if they didn't achieve great things, they still put in a lot of effort, right?

If she weren't bound by her previous vow, she would have wanted to take Hua Nianrou's body; she would never have told Lin Yi the truth now.

"One day, I will break my vow and reclaim my position as the Demon Ancestor. I will repay this humiliation a hundredfold!"

Lin Yi had no idea that the little demon maid he carried with him harbored such ambitions; if he had known, he would certainly have been very happy.

After all, once he had taken in Ah Qi, he couldn't very well kill her to take his own path without a suitable reason.

Even leeks have emotions.

But if she rebels herself, then he will have a reason to take action.

At that moment, Lin Yi was puzzled, but he didn't hide anything. He simply asked tactfully, "Miss Hua, do you usually feel that there is anything about you that is different from ordinary people?"

When Lin Yi suddenly asked this question, Hua Nianrou didn't know why. She thought about it carefully and realized that she actually had many differences from ordinary people.

She was physically weak, but she was smarter than most people and could remember things quickly. These were all special qualities, but they were probably not what Lin Yi wanted to know.

"If there's anything unusual about it, it's probably a dream. Every year on April 14th, I dream of a pitch-black pool of water. I don't know how deep the pool is, but it seems like something is trying to climb out of it."

It's been like this for years, but nothing's happened, so I don't know if that counts.

Hua Nianrou didn't know what this meant, and Lin Yi didn't understand either.

April 14th is an unlucky date, but what does it mean to dream of a pond?

Could it be that her sickly health is related to that dream?

Neither of them were very knowledgeable, unaware that Ah Qi's words had caused an uproar throughout Shanghai...

"Her dreams can actually communicate with the Demon Well in the Abyss. My destiny truly lies with her..."

Chapter 516 Who hasn't played a female character before, right?

Ever since falling into Lin Yi's hands, Ah Qi has almost given up on treatment.

She and Lin Yi made a vow that she could disregard the contract's binding force unless she could regain the Demon Ancestor's power.

She didn't tell Lin Yi this, lest he secretly sabotage her.

Even if Lin Yi doesn't cause her any trouble, it will be extremely difficult for her to regain the Demon Ancestor's strength.

First, the blood of a true demon is essential.

But with her current strength, facing a true demon would only lead to her death.

Encountering someone like Hua Nianrou, who possesses the blood of a true demon but lacks the strength of a true demon, is truly a case of blind cat catching a dead mouse; such luck is simply incredible.

If she hadn't met Hua Nianrou, Aqi wouldn't have thought about returning; with her abilities, she would have been able to run rampant in the human world.

Unfortunately, Hua Nianrou was under Lin Yi's protection, and according to the oath, she couldn't lay a hand on Hua Nianrou.

That's where it gets stuck.

Ah Qi had already given up hope, but she never expected that Hua Nianrou was even more special than she had imagined.

It's bad enough that he has a mortal body and coexists with the blood of a true demon, but he can even connect with the Abyss Demon Well through dreams.

Isn't this her chance?

The Abyss Well connects to the Demon Realm and possesses the purest magic. As long as she bathes in the well, she can slowly restore her original essence.

Once she becomes the Demon Ancestor, what will Lin Yi amount to?

If she hadn't perished in the war between gods and demons, she wouldn't have ended up being bullied by a mortal!

Going to the Abyss Demon Well through Hua Nianrou's dream will not harm Hua Nianrou at all, and therefore will not be considered a violation of the agreement made with Lin Yi.

perfect!

Ah Qi had already made up his mind to make a fortune quietly. Lin Yi thought for a while before saying, "April 14th has already passed this year. I'll come to find you earlier next year."

It's quite a coincidence that when Lin Yi left Chang'an with his wives last time, it was in early April. If A Qi could stay a few more days, he could also find an opportunity to enter the Demon Well.

If Ah Qi misses that chance, he'll have to wait another year.

But it doesn't matter. With the lifespan of demons, it doesn't matter if we wait another year or even another hundred years, as long as Hua Nianrou lives well.

Wait a minute, Hua Nianrou has no one to protect her, and she is often troubled by the blood of the true demon. Who knows when she might die.

If she dies, where will she find the Demon Well?

Neither the man nor the woman talking paid attention to the feelings of a demon ancestor; Hua Nianrou, in any case, was happy.

She used to be quite afraid of having that dream, always feeling that the pool of water was very deep, and if she looked at it for too long, it felt like it would swallow her up.

After waking up from the dream, she would feel a sense of fear.

But now, she's looking forward to next April.

She'll be able to see Lin Yi in April, so what nightmares could she possibly have?

She'd be happy to have nightmares every day if she could keep Lin Yi here.

"Alright, it's getting late. You should go and get some rest. I have something I want to talk to you about first thing tomorrow morning."

"Alright, then I'll head back to my study now."

Hua Nianrou used a little trick. In fact, she also had her own residence in the City Lord's Mansion. In order to make it convenient for her to work for the City Lord's Mansion, there was a backyard specially reserved for her and Gu Tinglan to rest.

It was so late, and she suggested going back to her study, clearly with some ulterior motives in mind.

"I'll take you."

"Thank you."

Hua Nianrou happily went home with Lin Yi, while Gu Tinglan watched and sighed.

What makes Lin Yi so charismatic?

He completely captivated Hua Nianrou; she was even willing to walk a longer distance just to spend more time with him.

Have you forgotten that you're not in good health?

Unfortunately, she couldn't very well show herself to expose Hua Nianrou's tricks, so she could only let Lin Yi lead Hua Nianrou back.

However, Lin Yi didn't let Hua Nianrou walk either.

"wind."

At Lin Yi's command, a gentle breeze blew over and easily lifted Hua Nianrou up.

"Row!"

The wind carried Hua Nianrou, slowly lifting her to the ground and drifting her away towards the study, disappearing in a flash.

I'll truly see you off on your journey.

Lin Yi also thoughtfully cast a protective spell on Hua Nianrou, so that even if she flew home quickly, she wouldn't be exposed to the cold wind.

This action amused Gu Tinglan, who couldn't help but burst out laughing.

What's funny is Hua Nianrou's little scheme. She's met Lin Yi, who's completely oblivious to romance. I wonder how Hua Nianrou will feel when she gets home.

Lin Yi heard someone laughing and glanced over.

He already knew someone was spying on him, and since he knew it wasn't an enemy, he didn't care. But her laughing out loud was going too far.

You can laugh, but you can't make a sound.

Lin Yi silently noted this down, but pretended not to hear it.

Otherwise, wouldn't a charming man like him win over another young female fan?

As a womanizer, Lin Yi knew that his resistance was not strong enough.

This is definitely because the physical body's cultivation level is too high, leading to a stronger demand in a certain aspect.

So if you want to avoid making mistakes, reduce your contact with other women.

He spent half a month away from home, and he only interacted with the little fox.

After returning to Tianmu Mountain this time, Su Xian'er probably won't dare to go out of the mountain alone with him again.

Lin Yi pretended not to hear Gu Tinglan's laughter, and in a flash, he disappeared.

Gu Tinglan: "..."

Is my luck with romance over for today?

Or did Lin Yi cut it off on his own initiative?

She was certain that, given Lin Yi's cultivation level, he must have noticed her snickering earlier.

He noticed her smiling, but ignored her and ran away in a flash. Was he hiding from her?

Thinking of this, Gu Tinglan suddenly felt a little annoyed.
