I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Moreover, a few months ago, she suddenly sensed the aura of the Demon Land, as if a very powerful demon had appeared.

This means her chances are much greater.

In the past few months, she has also improved her cultivation level by constantly stimulating her inner demons. If she obtains the blood of a true demon and enters the Demon Abyss, she will regain her identity as the Demon Ancestor, and the vow she made with Lin Yi will naturally be null and void.

Once she reaches the level of the Demon Ancestor, she is no longer afraid of the backlash of oaths. At that time, Lin Yi will have no means to restrict her.

As a demon who yearns for freedom, Ah Qi decides to take a bold gamble.

However, she absolutely cannot break through the great formation that Lin Yi set up outside the island on her own.

It was because he had explored it that Ah Qi knew how terrifying the great formation outside the island was.

She probably needs to recover her strength to at least that of a True Demon to break through.

That's where the problem lies.

To become a true demon, you must go out into the world.

But to go out into the world, one must first become a true demon.

She got stuck at this step.

Ah Qi could probably guess that Lin Yi must have encountered a major problem that he couldn't solve, which was definitely a golden opportunity for her.

If she doesn't do something while Lin Yi is too busy to deal with her, when will she have any chance when Lin Yi is free to do something later?

Left with no other choice, she had to ask Shang Chang'er for help.

Only Shang Chang'er might be able to help her; the others have all had in-depth conversations with Lin Yi, so naturally they wouldn't believe a word she said.

Although Shang Chang'er was wary of her, they had once shared a teacher-student relationship, and she had indeed never harmed Shang Chang'er and had even given her many benefits.

Let's think of a way; we should still be able to persuade her.

Moreover, she knows quite a few secrets.

Once Shang Chang'er's heart is touched, it's time for her to shine.

Lin Yi underestimated her.

Although she is a bit weak now, she was once a demon ancestor.

As long as Shang Chang'er's heart wavers even slightly, she has a way to make her work for her.

Anyway, the agreement she made with Lin Yi was only that she wouldn't harm the people around him.

She didn't hurt Shang Chang'er, so it can't be considered that she attacked her, right?

See, she usually challenges their inner demons and tempers their will every day, and nothing happens to her, right?

Ah Qi's hesitation and inner conflict were actually just an act.

After a moment of affectation, she finally said, "I'm a little worried about Lin Yi, so I hope you can help me..."

"Are you worried about my master?"

Shang Chang'er's tone was full of doubt, so A Qi asked in return, "Aren't you worried?"

Shang Chang'er was stumped by this question.

How could she not worry?

Lin Yi has not returned for so long. Although it was agreed that he would be gone for a long time this time, according to the concept of time of cultivators, a few months is not a long time.

but……

This time, Lin Yi's attitude was very different as they parted, which naturally worried everyone.

"Do you know that this island is neither accessible nor exitable? Do you know why?"

Ah Qi knew that Shang Chang'er was already in a state of turmoil.

Pressing her advantage, she began to reveal everything she knew.

"You may not know the level of strength of Lin Yi's opponent, but I do know..."

Ah Qi had followed Lin Yi and seen too much, so he naturally knew how difficult the road Lin Yi was going to take would be.

With a certain basis in reality, and further embellished, how could Shang Chang'er remain calm and composed?

How could Shang Chang'er not worry when she thought that Lin Yi was going to fight against the entire Immortal Realm?

Ah Qi then explained to her why the island was sealed off: Lin Yi didn't want them to go out and die.

In fact, Shang Chang'er knew this too. She could feel the atmosphere when Lin Yi left.

But knowing something in your heart and being proven guilty are two different feelings, and for a moment, she was in a state of utter confusion.

Qu Jing assumed she was undergoing a test of her inner demons and didn't think much of it, simply silently protecting her.

Little did they know, Shang Chang'er had no inner demons, but she did have feelings for Lin Yi.

But she quickly came to her senses and said, "I believe Master will return safely. Are you telling me all this because you have some kind of conspiracy or scheme?"

"I have no ulterior motives. I just want to leave this island. If possible, I would also like to help Lin Yi."

"Master told me that I can't trust your words. Master is your enemy. How could you be so kind?"

Ah Qi quickly explained, "I made a pact with your master. If he dies, I will die too. I want to protect him, but more importantly, I want to protect myself."

Shang Chang'er: "..."

That makes some sense now. If Lin Yi hadn't already taken measures to limit Ah Qi, he certainly wouldn't have felt comfortable letting her stay on the island.

Of course, Shang Chang'er did not believe A Qi's words just because of these remarks.

“Since Master has arranged for you to stay here, he must have his reasons. What if you leave here and cause trouble in the outside world? I won’t help you.”

Shang Chang'er refused decisively, but images of Lin Yi's tragic death flashed through her mind.

This was Ah Qi's method, making Shang Chang'er imagine the most terrifying scene.

As long as Shang Chang'er is worried, she has hope.

Ah Qi said, "Can you bear to watch Lin Yi be left to fight alone and be killed by the Immortal Realm?"

Shang Chang'er: "..."

This is what she fears most right now.

But she used her last bit of reason to fight back, saying, "Of course I can't bear to, but I also know that if I don't have the ability, I shouldn't meddle."

"I can't help my master, so besides cultivating myself diligently, I should try not to cause him any trouble."

Ah Qi hadn't expected Shang Chang'er to see things so clearly. However, Shang Chang'er was her only chance. Whether or not she fell into the trap, she was determined to get out.

"You can't help your master, but I can. I am the Demon Ancestor of the Demon Clan. Your master is currently at war with the Immortal Realm. If the Demon Clan were to attack the Immortal Realm, it would surely alleviate much of his pressure."

At that time, he might still have a sliver of hope.

Shang Chang'er was still hesitant, but A Qi knew that it would be difficult to fool Shang Chang'er with words alone, so he directly used his inner demon supernatural power to influence Shang Chang'er silently.

So much so that Shang Chang'er, who originally wanted to refuse, now said, "What can my meager skills do for you?"

"You've inherited the legacy of the Rat, haven't you? The Rat has the ability to dig holes. If you dig an extremely tiny hole, I can leave this place and help Lin Yi recruit the old demon clan..."

Chapter 589 Adaptation is not random fabrication

Ah Qi's words were, of course, a form of seduction.

But she is the progenitor of inner demons; if she so desires, she can influence a person silently.

Especially when the other party is feeling unsettled.

She explained Lin Yi's situation and the strength of his enemies, but under these circumstances, she could offer him some help.

Upon hearing this, Shang Chang'er was naturally tempted.

Hearing that Lin Yi and A Qi had another agreement, her defenses relaxed a little.

It was precisely because of this slight relaxation that she fell into Ah Qi's trap, even though she didn't completely trust Ah Qi.

Living with your inner demon is risky; you could easily be controlled by her if you're not careful, especially with something so full of flaws!

It was because Ah Qi hadn't shown her true colors before that everyone, including Lin Yi, underestimated her danger.

It should be known that inner demons are the most mysterious of all demons. As the ancestor of inner demons, how could they be easy to deal with?

It's also because Ah Qi performed too poorly before.

Now that he has made such a sudden move, even Qu Jing, who was protecting him, did not notice anything unusual. Meanwhile, A Qi has already planted the seed of a demon in Shang Chang'er's body.

This seed of inner demon is harmless to Shang Chang'er herself, but if it becomes harmful, A Qi will definitely be the first to die.

But it is harmless and cannot trigger the vows between Ah Qi and Lin Yi.

It only allows Shang Chang'er to do a few things for A Qi when she needs them.

Soon, the day's inner demons passed, and neither Qu Jing nor Shang Chang'er noticed anything wrong, so they naturally went to cultivate on their own.

Not long after Qu Jing left, A Qi came back to find Shang Chang'er.

Lin Yi never expected that leaving Shang Chang'er and A Qi on the island would give A Qi the opportunity to escape.

Perhaps this is fate's arrangement.

Meanwhile, Lin Yi in the mountain city was completely unaware of this.

He was watching a play with Xihe.

After parting ways with Xiaocao, Xihe wanted to go back to the mountains to hide. This place wasn't safe, so she would go somewhere else to play next time.

But before they had taken more than two steps, a handsome young man appeared.

"It's a rare opportunity for us to meet. How about I treat you to a play?"

Xihe: "..."

Deep down, she was rejecting it.

However, she recognized the boy in front of her at a glance as an avatar of Lin Yi.

Lin Yi deliberately revealed his aura, so she naturally wouldn't mistake him.

Xihe was certain that it was definitely not by chance; Lin Yi had most likely come prepared.
