I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Lin Yi was a little nervous.

Hua Nianrou thought for a moment and said, "It's nothing. I just had a sudden flash of inspiration and was overthinking things. Elder Feng, please don't mind."

"Oh, then you should get some rest."

Lin Yi waved his sleeve and disappeared from Hua Nianrou's sight.

Hua Nianrou finally breathed a sigh of relief when she could no longer see her.

But her face quickly turned red.

"She must be Lin Yi!"

Thinking that Lin Yi had already entered her dream and seen her sleeping, Hua Nianrou felt extremely shy.

But despite her shyness, she was also happy about the rapid progress in their relationship.

She hadn't seen Lin Yi for a long time, but she never expected that Lin Yi would be right beside her.

As for why Lin Yi stayed by Xiao Yue's side under the guise of a woman, Hua Nianrou didn't care.

He must have his reasons. These are secrets he won't tell you, and you don't need to ask him.

Today was also a crucial moment when she suddenly realized this. She tested him slightly but did not expose Lin Yi.

However, if Lin Yi wants to enter her inner world, should she agree?

Hua Nianrou was somewhat conflicted.

Lin Yi, who had already left the place, couldn't help but feel annoyed.

"We've been exposed!"

He couldn't figure out how Hua Nianrou saw through him, but Hua Nianrou was a talent in intelligence work, so it wasn't unreasonable for her to recognize him.

However, his idol image will likely be ruined in the future.

Lin Yi was very annoyed, but he could only pretend that nothing had happened.

The night passed without incident.

The next day, Lin Yi woke up in the Jiankang Palace and found himself sleeping in the middle of the room, with Xiao Se sleeping soundly on his left and Yan Qingqiu clinging to him on his right.

Lin Yi knew perfectly well that this was definitely another vixen's doing, but at this point, there was no point in denouncing her. So he simply pretended nothing had happened and, in a flash, returned to Xingsha County.

With the abilities of an immortal, one can travel to the North Sea in the morning and Cangwu in the evening. With such divine abilities, time management becomes much easier.

Gu Tinglan got up early to chant sutras and saw Lin Yi, assuming that Lin Yi hadn't gone out.

She is now not much different from an ordinary person, so naturally she cannot detect Lin Yi's whereabouts.

After Gu Tinglan finished reciting the scriptures, Lin Yi prepared breakfast for her.

Gu Tinglan exclaimed "Amitabha!" upon seeing the dumplings filled with chives and pork.

"The five colors blind the eye, and the five flavors dull the palate."

Gu Tinglan didn't want to eat.

Lin Yi stir-fried some chili oil and poured it on top, then said calmly, "You are just a mortal now; if you don't eat, you'll starve to death."

These things are just food, yet you're fussing over what kind of filling the dumplings have. Isn't that just focusing on appearances and not the essence of the dish?

Gu Tinglan was stunned and began to frown in thought. Lin Yi picked up a dumpling with his chopsticks and stuffed it into her mouth, and she subconsciously opened her mouth and ate it.

Only when she realized something was wrong did she stare wide-eyed at Lin Yi.

"Why are you looking at me? If you don't do it yourself, I'll have to feed you."

At this moment, Gu Tinglan didn't have time to think about Buddhist principles. She quickly took the chopsticks and started eating.

Otherwise, Lin Yi would have to feed her again.

As Gu Tinglan ate, she seemed lost in thought, her face flushed, making her look incredibly beautiful. Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder there are immortals in this world; there are just so many beautiful women."

However, if we're talking about a role in the human world, it has to be the goddess Nuwa.

Lin Yi possessed some kind of strange magic. When he began to miss her, Gu Tinglan in front of him transformed into the image of Nuwa, and Lin Yi's gaze towards her softened considerably.

Of course, Lin Yi also controlled himself and did not allow Gu Tinglan to become someone's substitute.

This is not only an insult to Gu Tinglan, but also an insult to Nuwa.

What he sees is merely proof of who he's thinking about.

"You can eat slowly by yourself. I still have some things to take care of. If you want to go out for a walk, take this sword with you. It can protect you."

Lin Yi handed over the Demon-Slaying Sword.

By this time, the Demon-Slaying Sword had already killed many immortals, and its killing intent was very strong, so it had become more restrained.

It looks ordinary, but it can unleash tremendous power.

While not to say they would be invincible, they could at least hold out until Lin Yi sensed something amiss and could provide reinforcements at any time.

Gu Tinglan was touched by Lin Yi's thoughtfulness.

Although she was forcibly bound here by Lin Yi, she didn't have much resistance towards him. Now that Lin Yi was treating her better, she felt that Lin Yi liked her.

Although she felt that Lin Yi was too domineering, she could accept it.

Gu Tinglan gladly accepted the longsword and carried it with her. Lin Yi then drifted away and disappeared without a trace.

Actually, he hadn't gone far; he had simply moved from the open to the shadows to observe Gu Tinglan and everything around her.

Although having a clone would distract him, the task at hand today was relatively simple, allowing him to focus on two things at once.

In Chang'an City, Lin Yi used his clone to take Shang Chang'er to see Xiao Yue.

The two fellow disciples had no prior relationship, but became very warm and friendly after meeting.

The main reason is Xiao Yue. She is a social butterfly and has experienced a lot. Although she is still young, she has matured quickly.

On the contrary, Senior Sister Shang Chang'er's cultivation has indeed improved rapidly with the help of various parties, but her state of mind and overall perspective are much worse.

So even though she was the senior sister, she felt somewhat suppressed in front of Xiao Yue.

However, Shang Chang'er is actually quite strong.

She controlled the Rat zodiac sign, which is very sensitive, especially to hostility.

She was tricked by Ah Qi back then, but it was because of her supernatural power. It's like the saying goes, even the best swimmers can drown. Ah Qi had no hostility towards her and did not trigger her supernatural powers.

Although Xiao Yue performed very well, her hostility was clearly seen through by her supernatural powers.

She didn't understand why her junior sister, who was also from the same sect, would be hostile towards her.

Her outward enthusiasm only made Shang Chang'er more wary, which made her appear even more reserved.

Lin Yi knew he shouldn't stay there any longer, so he simply said, "You sisters should get along well," and then drifted away.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Hua Nianrou as soon as I stepped outside.

"Elder Feng."

"Miss, what's wrong?"

Lin Yi felt inexplicably nervous when he saw Hua Nianrou again.

"It's nothing, it's just... last night you said you wanted to enter my dream, and after thinking it over, I still think I should listen to Elder Feng. I took the day off today, I wonder if Elder Feng has time?"

Lin Yi: "..."

He naturally knew why Hua Nianrou had changed her mind; she had clearly recognized him, so he lowered his guard.

Since Hua Nianrou had taken the initiative to invite him, Lin Yi had no reason to refuse. He agreed and said, "You can go back and rest. I'll come when you're asleep."

"Elder Feng, please come back with me. I am timid, and if no one is by my side to protect me, I am afraid I will have difficulty falling asleep again."

Lin Yi: "..."

You are indeed gentle, but being timid is excessive.

This is a ruthless person who dares to poison himself and has seen a lot; a nightmare can't scare him.

She clearly wanted to use this opportunity to get him to sleep with her.

That's a woman's little trick.

However, Lin Yi still did not refuse.

He followed Hua Nianrou home, and at her request, he entered her bedroom.

Fortunately, Hua Nianrou didn't ask him to sleep in the same bed, otherwise Lin Yi really wouldn't have been able to keep up the act.

Meanwhile, after Lin Yi left, Xiao Yue and Shang Chang'er also tore off their mask of sisterly harmony and began to reveal their true colors.

"Junior Sister, we are from the same sect. Although we don't have much of a relationship, I haven't offended you, have I?"

Why are you so hostile towards me the moment we meet?

If your senior sister does anything wrong, just tell her directly.

As soon as Lin Yi left, Shang Chang'er confronted Xiao Yue directly.

When there are no outsiders around, she doesn't like to put on airs.

Seeing her so decisive, Xiao Yue was also taken aback. Since she had been seen through, she decided not to pretend anymore.

She frankly said, "There's no other reason, it's just that you're so pretty and cute that I'm a little worried about you."

Shang Chang'er: "..."

What is the reason for this?

Although there were many flaws in what he said, Shang Chang'er's anger subsided considerably after hearing it.

She initially thought her junior sister was unlikable, but now it seems that her junior sister has good taste.

She asked, puzzled, "How did I make you worry?"

"I'm afraid you'll fall in love with Master."

Since she was going to lay her cards on the table, Xiao Yue was very direct.

Upon hearing this, Shang Chang'er immediately bristled, saying in embarrassment and anger, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I... It's impossible!"

His angry and embarrassed demeanor only made Xiao Yue's heart sink.
