I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Xihe's plea for help was quickly answered, and another group of immortals and gods would descend to the mortal realm to provide assistance in half a month.

Because they had already supported Liu Jian, a mortal ruler, the resistance of human fortune to the gods and immortals had been weakened to some extent.

The celestial realm only needs half a month of preparation before it can descend to the mortal world.

However, the celestial realm was not peaceful at this time either.

Because Zhang Jiao killed the Ziwei Heavenly Emperor before, the current Ziwei Emperor Star has not yet appeared, so there is no Heavenly Emperor to suppress the Central Heavenly North Pole Heavenly Domain.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the demons launched a large-scale invasion of the immortal realm from this area, stirring up trouble everywhere.

This is also the best opportunity for the demons. The Heavenly Emperor Ziwei is dead, and the Immortal Realm is conquering the mortal world. If they don't act now, when will they?

To suppress the demon realm, no higher-level combat forces were sent down to the mortal world this time, and Xihe remained the commander, which relieved Xihe.

If someone stronger than her comes along and she can't control the situation, things could get out of control.

After telling Zhou Gongming, who was guarding Liu Jian's side, this good news was relayed, and Xihe stopped interfering in the affairs.

The significance of her and Wangshu's existence was to hold down the fort in the rear.

Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, kings against kings.

This is definitely not the time for them to make a move.

They had wartime etiquette; they couldn't just go around killing people all by themselves like Lin Yi.

This also gave Xihe and Wangshu a reason to take advantage of the situation.

In short, just muddle through.

Xihe has already given up and is just doing whatever Lin Yi tells her to do.

With nothing else to do, Xihe decided to take a stroll in the human world.

Since we're already lying down, we might as well have some fun.

Walking along the road, I saw a stage set up ahead, on which a woman in red was singing in a high-pitched voice: "...I was originally the Goddess of the Mysterious Palace, descended from heaven, benevolent, righteous, and compassionate, but I never expected that Yao Ji would be like a tiger, leopard, wolf, and jackal, who framed me..."

Upon hearing these lyrics, Xihe felt a chill run down her spine and turned to leave.

Traditional opera is a new thing that has appeared in the world in the past few months, and the most popular play is "The Legend of Nüba".

In this era, there were no traveling opera troupes, but there were plenty of musicians and performers.

With nothing else to do, Lin Yi wrote scripts while creating paper doll clones to travel around and train musicians and actors.

The playwright would simply change the content of the novel's script slightly, turning it into lyrics, and then find some musicians to form a theatrical troupe to tour the country.

Wherever they went, high-ranking officials and nobles would shower them with generous rewards, and a single performance could earn them thousands of taels of silver.

Of course, these were all people arranged by Lin Yi.

Only when others see that performing opera can make money will one opera troupe after another be developed.

There are two types of people who watch plays: those who watch plays outdoors and those who watch plays in theaters.

You can set up a stage anywhere in the open air, and the audience can watch for free. Those with money can pay, and those without can cheer.

Theaters require tickets, and there are also special VIP seats.

Currently, Lin Yi has only built such theaters in Jiankang and Chang'an.

Most of the time, they perform outdoors.

All the donations were made by Lin Yi, who directed and hyped the story, making the legend of Nüba and the opera troupe the hottest topics outside of the war.

In this era, people's entertainment life was actually very lacking. Lin Yi, a person from a later era, would have taken the entertainment industry off the ground in no time.

Ordinary people watch plays for entertainment, but when Xihe saw this legend of Nüba, the whole god was really upset.

Ordinary people might think it's just a play, but how could she not know that?

These are all true!

But these real things clearly contain some terrifying information.

The story of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden being tricked is true, the drought demon is real, but...

A creator god?

How dare you?

Ordinary people can make fun of gods however they want, because a person in a position of power won't care about the thoughts of ants.

But it's different for gods.

Speaking nonsense will surely bring disaster.

Just like an ordinary person in the human world, he can curse the heavens. But if it's a cultivator, you'll see if the heavens strike you down or not.

The creator god is an existence that transcends the laws of heaven.

First came the creator god, then came the Way of Heaven.

Can the identity of the creator be claimed by someone else?

Even though the Great Celestial Venerable controls the Three Realms, he doesn't dare claim that he created the world. Even though he created several smaller worlds, he doesn't dare to call himself the creator god.

However, the script for this version of "The Legend of Nüba" portrays Lin Yi as a creator god.

Such a huge karmic consequence is something neither the screenwriter nor Lin Yi can bear.

Moreover, it's spreading so widely among people, what do you call that?

This is called usurpation!

Why pretend to be the creator god?

Xihe was completely numb.

But what really sent chills down her spine was Lin Yi's condition.

The storybook and play have been circulating for months, and Lin Yi is still full of energy...

For a fleeting moment, Xihe felt a chill run down her spine upon reflection.

What I'm saying is, is it possible that this guy really is the creator god?

Is this so-called story actually the truth?

Xihe felt a chill run down her spine. She dared not think about such things in detail, nor did she dare to tell anyone.

But now that she sees someone acting in the Legend of Nüba, she immediately turns around and leaves.

As long as I don't watch the play, I know nothing.

Xihe turned around quickly, but accidentally bumped into a mortal girl.

Xihe was secretly alarmed. Although her strength was suppressed in the mortal realm, she was still a top-tier deity and shouldn't be unable to walk properly.

The young girl was accompanied by another charming and lovely girl. Both of them had some cultivation and should be mortal cultivators.

"Feel sorry."

Xihe wouldn't have apologized if she hadn't sensed something was wrong.

She is the high and mighty Sun Goddess!

Unfortunately, after meeting Lin Yi, she learned what it meant to be outmatched.

Now she has a greater sense of awe for things she cannot control.

For example, the girl she bumped into for no apparent reason.

"It's alright, Your Highness Xihe."

Xihe's eyes suddenly sharpened, and she glared fiercely at the girl in front of her, ready to fight at any moment.

Who are you?!

She walks among mortals, and those who can see her are already extraordinary, and those who can call her by name are even more so.

Now, Xihe was completely convinced that the collision just now was not accidental.

"My name is Liu Ruoling, but of course, I prefer my old name, Zhao Xiaocao."

"Are you Liu Jian's daughter?"

Xihe was stunned. When she approached Liu Jian earlier, she hadn't noticed anything unusual about Xiaocao and thought she was just an ordinary woman. It wasn't until she bumped into her that she remembered what Xiaocao looked like.

Some strange force interfered with her perception, so much so that she couldn't even recall what Xiaocao looked like before Xiaocao introduced herself.

For Xihe, this was truly a live horror movie.

All fear stems from the unknown.

The sun goddess is certainly not afraid of ghosts, but she is also afraid of the unknown.

Especially after experiencing being trained by Lin Yi, and Lin Yi becoming the creator god in the drama...

This world began to appear mysterious and dangerous in her eyes, and unexpectedly, something even more mysterious appeared now.

"That's right, I am Liu Jian's daughter."

Xihe: "..."

Judging from her addressing him by his first name, it seems that she and Liu Jian do not have a good relationship.

What is your purpose in contacting her now?

"So it was the eldest princess."

Xihe was also a princess, so she naturally looked down on the princesses of the mortal world. But seeing the little grass acting mysteriously, she decided to be polite.

"What business does the Princess have with me?"

Xiao Cao said frankly, "I would like to ask His Highness Xihe for help in seizing the throne."

Xihe: "..."

Goodness, are people this direct these days?

Why do you think I would help you?

Xihe was unaware that Xiaocao was Lin Yi's apprentice. Apart from his own people, Lin Yi had not told anyone about Xiaocao.

The fact that Xiaocao appeared here was due to Lin Yi's secret guidance.
