I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Lin Yi led the two inside first. Chen Huaiyuan was very reserved and followed carefully behind Lin Yi. Clearly, he was the type to curry favor with powerful figures. If he followed Lin Yi today, it would be difficult for him to integrate into the seven-person team in the future.

Xiao Se remained as aloof as before, even showing disdain when the girls came over.

"This place is filthy and stinks. Hurry up and finish your inspection and leave."

Xiao Se's tone was very impatient. Lin Yi naturally didn't have much affection for this impolite guy either. He knew that he might have a big background, but this chin-looking attitude was really annoying.

"Dude, are you even a man? This place is so warm and beautiful, and you think it smells bad?"

"shallow!"

Xiao Se angrily uttered two words and then fell silent.

Lin Yi went upstairs with a smile and asked for a private room. Since it was public money being spent, he didn't need to make himself uncomfortable.

The madam, with a fawning smile, led several girls into the room. When she saw Lin Yi, her expression changed slightly, but she still smiled and said, "Gentlemen, have you taken a fancy to any of these girls?"

Lin Yi looked at the group of women, but the Demon-Slaying Manual didn't react, so he waved his hand and said, "Change them, I don't like any of these."

"What kind of man would you like, my lord?"

"Someone pretty, preferably a bit sexy, you know what I mean?"

Since they are fox spirits, they are naturally charming and alluring, so choosing them this way will increase the chances of finding a fox spirit.

"vulgar!"

Xiao Se turned her head away, looking ashamed to be associated with Lin Yi. Lin Yi was not annoyed and sent the madam away.

With Lin Yi, an experienced driver, leading the team, everything went relatively smoothly for them.

The other two groups were different. It was their first time visiting a brothel. They were curious, proud, worried about the sect's rules, and excited about having a rare excuse to openly stroll around. They almost forgot what they were there for.

Zhong Ming, for example, walked into the Yunyu Tower with great curiosity, muttering to himself, "That scoundrel Lin is despicable! How dare he humiliate me like this!"

Chongxu Temple is a place of abstinence from sexual activity, and all the monks there are Taoist priests, not nuns. He had never seen so many beautiful and charming women before.

For a moment, Zhong Ming felt his Dao heart fluctuate greatly.

"You don't have to come!"

When Zhou Yan criticizes someone, she doesn't hold back.

This group's disguise was completely wasted. Who would agree to go to a brothel and start turning on each other before even seeing the girl?

The situation of Zhou Qing and Qian Lie in the other group is slightly better.

Both of them had been beaten up by Lin Yi, so they were somewhat in the same boat. Although they rarely interacted, the atmosphere was still relatively friendly.

Their actions were observed by those in the attic. Mr. Liu took a sip of his drink, and even now, he still couldn't figure out what Wu De was plotting.

Now that they've recognized Lin Yi's identity, wouldn't it be simpler for him to just kill him directly?

Why did they have to bring a fox demon to lure Bai Xiao first, and then provoke Lin Yi to come to Yunyu Tower to investigate? They went through all this trouble, going in circles, which he really didn't understand.

However, when he fought Lin Yi on Jiangxin Island, he was so intimidated by Yang Huo that he ran away without listening to Wu De, causing him to miss the best opportunity. He felt embarrassed when he thought about it afterward, so when he heard about Wu De's plan again, although he didn't quite understand it, he didn't dare to ask.

I feel like this little guy is outsmarting me, so I'd better not humiliate myself. I'll just do whatever he says!

The doubts that lingered in my mind were ultimately irritating.

Seeing that his prey was in position, he finally couldn't help but ask, "What are your plans now?"

Wu De was still wearing his mask, and he smiled slightly as he said, "Naturally, we're waiting for Xin San Niang to bring us news of the Ghost King. The Ghost King has just undergone her tribulation and hasn't recovered her strength yet, so this is our last chance to hunt her down."

Although Lin Yi is not interested in women, he would likely be no match for the fox demon's allure.

Xin San Niang was the fox demon that Wu De had found. She had over six hundred years of cultivation. Although her strength was below that of Mr. Liu, she still made Mr. Liu feel threatened.

As expected, Wu De is no simple man; he has a trump card up his sleeve.

Seeing that things were hopeless, he abandoned his evil intentions and focused solely on seizing the Ghost King's power.

Even without the great opportunity that followed, the power of the Ghost King alone would have been enough to save him many years of arduous cultivation.

"In that case, we will await good news from Third Sister."

Mr. Liu's gaze was deep, piercing through layers of obstacles, and he saw the beautiful woman. She was mixed in with the group, following a madam, heading towards Lin Yi's room.

Before long, everyone else came out, but Xin San Niang was left inside.

As expected, even Lin Yi could not resist the fox demon's allure.

They were not worried about Xin San Niang's identity being exposed. Fox demons are the most changeable, cunning, and manipulative of all demons. Many fox demons feed on human hearts, and after eating a lot, they naturally become human.

Some fox spirits use their beauty to amuse people, and after doing so many times, they naturally learn how to bewitch.

There was once a disciple of the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain who had reached the third rank in cultivation, but he failed to see through the fox demon's disguise. He was bewitched by the fox demon, had his vital energy drained, and ended up dying and his soul being destroyed.

Even a third-rank cultivator couldn't see through the fox demon's disguise, so how could Lin Yi possibly do it?

Now, the first step should be successful, and he just needs to wait for good news.

It was at this moment that He Dong came out of the inn.

Since she was going to stay in Xingsha City, she had to find a way to generate some income.

She had exhausted all the money in her hands, so she had to go out and make money.

Although I've only recovered halfway, I still have enough ability to protect myself.

However, she had just stepped out when she encountered a patrol team from the Jingye Division.

Niu Er was among them. When he saw He Dong, he called out, "Sister-in-law, where are you going so late at night?"

Niu Er didn't think too much about it; he was just asking casually.

He Dong couldn't help but regret that she hadn't disguised herself in order to save her magic power, which led to her being seen by someone. To avoid arousing Niu Er's suspicion, He Dong quickly made up an excuse: "I wanted to go to the Jingye Division to see my husband. He has been away for a long time and the weather is getting cold. I don't know if he is cold."

"Oh, then you don't need to go. Lin Yi isn't at Jingye Division; he's gone to Yunyu Tower."

He Dong: "..."

Good heavens, that's really good heavens!

"Thank you for telling me. He must be working on a case, so I won't disturb him."

After saying that, He Dong turned and left.

Niu Er scratched his head. He had been worried that he might have said something wrong and caused trouble for Lin Yi, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't have to make amends. His sister-in-law was so understanding.

Niu Er didn't take the little incident to heart and continued leading his patrol.

Meanwhile, after returning to the inn, He Dong immediately concealed himself and headed straight for the Cloud and Rain Pavilion...

Chapter 78 Xin San Niang

Lin Yi was unaware that his ghost wife was on her way; he was currently plotting how to subdue the demon.

As soon as Xin San Niang entered the room, Lin Yi knew her identity.

The Demon-Slaying Manual opens automatically, so why bother looking at it?

Xin San Niang, a fox demon, often uses her beauty to bewitch people. Once they are confused and disoriented, she takes their hearts and livers to eat. Killing her will grant one 620 years of cultivation.

With over six hundred years of cultivation, she was decades ahead of Lin Yi. Lin Yi wasn't entirely confident he could defeat her. A sneak attack might have a chance, but she could also escape.

Upon seeing her condition again, I was immediately alarmed.

[Status: Desiring to use her beauty to seduce someone and obtain clues about the Ghost King]

Currently, only two people know that he is related to the Ghost King: Mr. Liu and Wu De.

Lin Yi quickly turned to the page of the Demon-Slaying Manual, and sure enough, his condition had also changed.

[Status: Awaiting news from the fox demon about the Ghost King, patiently lying in wait for the opportune moment to strike and kill]

Sure enough!

Seeing this, Lin Yi had a better understanding of the situation.

The fox demon affair was a setup targeting him from the very beginning. The other party didn't openly deal with him, probably because they were hesitant to act against him and wanted to find out the Ghost King's whereabouts first.

Neither Mr. Liu nor Wu De saw where the Ghost King went, and their target from beginning to end was only He Dong.

If that's the case, why didn't Xin San Niang just seduce him directly instead of going around in circles?

If I reveal the matter of the fox demon in advance, wouldn't that be like stirring up trouble and arousing his suspicion?

Lin Yi couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

He knew that Mr. Liu was already hiding in the Cloud and Rain Pavilion. If he acted rashly and failed to kill Xin San Niang instantly, he would have to face two great demons alone once Mr. Liu realized something was wrong and came to his aid.

Of course, his companions from the Jingye Division couldn't help him. Not to mention that they weren't skilled enough, even if they were strong enough, they might not help him.

Since the other party has already set their sights on me, running away is definitely useless.

It would be better to think of a way to get rid of Xin San Niang first.

As the saying goes, fortune favors the bold. As long as we buy enough time and risk killing Xin San Niang, Mr. Liu will be no threat.

He pretended to be nonchalant and said to Xiao Se, "What do you think of this young lady?"

Xiao Se glanced at Xin San Niang, noticing her slender waist, her prominent breasts, and her raging waves, and commented disdainfully, "Vulgar!"

At this point, Lin Yi could confirm that this brother was either a woman or didn't like women, and his body wouldn't be aroused by women, otherwise he would definitely act this way.

Lin Yi's physical strength is perhaps due to the fact that he drank Jiang Linglong's tonic yesterday.

Fortunately, he controls his body with reason, rather than his body controlling his reason.

He seemed to be attracted by the fox demon, beckoning Xin San Niang over while teasing Xiao Se: "You're probably still too young to understand the joys of the mortal world."

Xin San Niang was also very interested in handsome men like Xiao Se. Being able to see both Lin Yi and Xiao Se, such handsome young men, was truly a joy.

She sat down next to Lin Yi and said with a coquettish smile, "Young master is right. I can take you to experience it together."

"Disgusting!"

Xiao Se angrily pushed away Xin San Niang's outstretched hand and moved to the other end of the table.

Xin San Niang was a little embarrassed. Lin Yi slapped her again and said with a laugh, "You little hussy, the guest you're entertaining now is me. Do you want us to come together? Don't be too greedy."

Lin Yi only said it, but Xin San Niang thought of that scene and immediately became excited, saying with a charming smile, "If the two gentlemen take pity on me, it's not impossible."

Xiao Se was immediately enraged, his face flushed red, and he roared, "Shameless!"
