I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

The envoy was surprised by Xiao Yue's terrible attitude and her use of such vulgar language.

The envoy wanted to say something more, but when he met Xiao Yue's angry gaze, he dared not speak again.

Not only Xiao Yue, but also her ministers and subordinates glared at her angrily.

If I dare say anything more, I'm afraid I really won't be able to go back alive.

This is all because Xiao Se set a precedent.

When two armies are at war, should the envoy not be killed?

I'll kill you, what are you going to do about it?

It's no wonder that Xiao Yue's people were so angry; Liu Jian's request was simply too infuriating.

Who is Liu Jian?

He is indeed a regional lord now, and has even declared himself emperor, but before that, he was subordinate to Xiao Yue.

Although this was just using Xiao Yue's name to rebel, a subordinate in name is still a subordinate.

As a subordinate, he declared himself emperor before Xiao Yue had even taken the throne, and proclaimed to the world that they were the successors of the Liu Song dynasty.

Good heavens, Xiao Yue's ancestors usurped the position of the Liu Song dynasty.

Forget about ancestors, just go back to my grandfather's generation.

The restoration of the Liu Song dynasty directly denied the legitimacy of the Xiao Qi regime, just as the existence of Xiao Yue denied the legitimacy of the Xiao Liang regime.

The three forces are intertwined, each containing the next.

Under such circumstances, how dare he ask Xiao Yue for marriage?

Moreover, given Liu Jian's age, Xiao Yue is old enough to be his daughter.

But in everyone's eyes, who is Xiao Yue?

They were so great that even celestial maidens dared not compare themselves to them. Soldiers and civilians alike held them in high esteem and admiration, but dared not harbor the slightest thought of disrespect.

Liu Jian's actions were akin to an insubordination and a toad trying to eat swan meat; everyone in Chang'an could hear his schemes.

How could Xiao Yue's people not be furious?

The Red Wolf Army was personally led by Xiao Yue. They were the most valiant and skilled in battle, and one of the strongest legions in the Three Kingdoms.

I am not afraid of fighting Liu Jian at all.

In the past few months, the main battlefield has been between Song and Liang. Jiang Linglong withstood most of the pressure from the Immortal Realm, while Xiao Yue was recuperating and watching from the sidelines.

Lin Yi would occasionally go out for a stroll, help out by applying a buff, and get some kills.

The current balance of power among the three factions shows that Xiao Yue in the north is the weakest, Liu Jian in the west is the second strongest but has great potential, and Xiao Se's side is the strongest.

The normal procedure would have been for Liu Jian and Xiao Yue to join forces to suppress Xiao Se.

Liu Jian's desire for a marriage alliance also stemmed from this idea.

Little did he know that Xiao Yue would not only refuse to accept it, but also raise an army to attack him.

During this time, Xiao Yue was also waiting for a reason to make a move.

After all, Liu Jian was nominally an ally, while Xiao Se was the enemy.

She knew that Liu Jian had divine support, but she couldn't directly take action against him.

Now, this reason has been presented to us.

After scolding the envoy away, Xiao Yue also urgently convened a mobilization meeting to ensure that the soldiers and logistics were ready.

After a few months of rest and recuperation, it's time to get moving.

As soon as the meeting ended, Xiao Yue hurriedly went to find Lin Yi.

"Master, I made this decision without consulting you. You won't be angry, will you?"

Xiao Yue looked nervous, but actually, she wasn't worried about that; she had other motives.

Lin Yi certainly wouldn't blame Xiao Yue, and simply replied, "No, we just need a reason to get you involved in this war."

"Then...you're not angry?"

"Why are you angry?"

"Someone wants to marry me! He's after your woman!"

Lin Yi: "..."

He could tell at a glance that Xiao Yue's words implied she wanted him to acknowledge the words "your woman".

"Of course I'm not angry."

Xiao Yue: "..."

Aren't you angry?

Then I'll get angry.

Seeing that her cheeks were puffed out, Lin Yi smiled and said, "My Yue'er is so beautiful, there are many people who have their eyes on her. If I get angry just because someone else thinks about her, then I'll be sulking every day."

Xiao Yue was overjoyed and beamed with happiness.

Lin Yi was referring to "my Yue'er".

Although the words "my woman" were not explicitly stated, the implication was quite clear.

Lin Yi isn't the type to be sentimental. They've already kissed and hugged, so it wouldn't be appropriate for him to say he only sees her as a disciple.

It's a pity that my sect is so unfortunate; it's full of treacherous and disloyal people.

After teasing Xiao Yue, Lin Yi brought up Liu Jian.

"Liu Jian actually has some connection with you and me; he is your senior sister's father."

Although Xiaocao is the youngest, she was indeed the first to enter the sect, so there's no problem making her the senior sister.

Xiao Yue was dumbfounded. Good heavens, it turns out that her master's connections extended to all corners of the world, and the three kingdoms were originally one family.

"So, when the time comes, will we really fight or just pretend?"

"Of course it's a real fight. Just because there's some history doesn't mean he's one of us."

This is also the reason why Lin Yi sighed.

Lin Yi originally didn't have any ill feelings towards Liu Jian.

From the perspective of this era, there is nothing wrong with Liu Jian's treatment of Qin Shi and Xiao Cao.

After all, Liu Jian bore the heavy responsibility of restoring the country and could not act on emotion.

In order to restore their kingdom, they lay low on the border and developed their power discreetly. In order not to implicate their families, they dared not send any messages back.

These are all understandable.

At least he didn't forget his wife and children at home, and he returned afterward.

From Xiaocao's perspective, he would feel that Liu Jian did indeed owe his family something, but from an objective and fair perspective, Liu Jian didn't have much of a problem.

The reason their families were destroyed was not entirely because of Liu Jian, but because the world had collapsed and all living beings were suffering.

Lin Yi did not intend to judge Liu Jian by the standards of later generations, so he did not intend to harm him in secret, and even gave him guidance in his dream.

A few months ago, after Lin Yi set out the plan, Xi He naturally had to choose one side to support. The two sides fought back and forth, some real and some fake, while he hid on the sidelines, quietly accumulating buffs and gradually eroding the power of the Heavenly Realm without revealing himself.

This requires that at least one of the three kingdoms must seek refuge with the immortal realm.

Neither Xiao Yue nor Xiao Se are suitable, so it has to be Liu Jian.

Only their side doesn't have a deep, overt relationship with Lin Yi.

Therefore, before the plan was implemented, Lin Yi first used the method of entering a dream to tell Liu Jian many things.

Of course, Liu Jian might not be trustworthy, so Lin Yi didn't reveal Xiao Cao's identity, nor did he reveal Xiao Yue's or Xiao Se's identities.

He only stated that he was the guardian of the human world, fighting against the celestial realm.

Liu Jian had promised in his dream that he would never forget the roots of humanity.

Subsequently, Lin Yi also gave him some protective magic items and elixirs to enhance his cultivation.

He made all of these himself when he had nothing else to do.

While others take forty-nine days to refine pills and weapons, he can create top-quality treasures in minutes, just like cooking a meal. This is because he controls too many powers and divine artifacts, and the magical treasures he creates are extremely powerful.

Lin Yi gave Liu Jian the complete set of magical artifacts.

A heart-protecting mirror can guard Liu Jian's heart, preventing him from being troubled by inner demons and from being misled by supernatural powers, magic, or any other external things.

A headband could protect Liu Jian's soul and ensure that his thoughts would not be spied on by others.

He also has a full set of soft armor, all designed to increase his defense; in game terms, his armor and magic resistance are maximized.

Lin Yi was quite generous towards those who might become allies.

They specially made a set of protective items for him, which shows their sincerity.

result……

People, you know, always have too many thoughts on their minds.

The treasures Lin Yi crafted naturally had some backdoors; he had no intention of harming anyone, but simply to monitor Liu Jian's situation.

After all, according to his plan, Liu Jian would also be in a rather dangerous situation, and if anything unexpected happened, he could save his life at any time.

The surveillance function is secondary; its primary purpose is protection.

result……

He just watched helplessly as Liu Jian threw himself into the arms of the immortal.

The Heart-Protecting Mirror did not activate because the celestial realm did not use any supernatural powers to control it.

Lin Yi was overthinking it.

In the mortal realm, the human king is protected by the Heavenly Way; who would dare to directly cast spells on the emperor?

Wouldn't this incur divine retribution?

There's no need to take the risk if you can persuade someone with words.
