I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Seeing how cautious she was, Lin Yi couldn't help but wonder if he was being too intimidating.

Although he is somewhat fierce, he is not always in a fighting state.

It was also thanks to Ah Qi that Lin Yi was able to accumulate so much power in the Demon Realm, so he naturally wanted to give Ah Qi some reward.

Of course, it's impossible to set her free, but on this basic condition, we can give her some preferential treatment.

"Thanks to you, I was able to wipe out the demon realm. You have made a contribution, and I can grant you some reasonable requests."

Ah Qi: "..."

Why does this still feel so much like fishing?

Should she reaffirm her loyalty once again before Lin Yi spares her life?

With this in mind, Ah Qi decisively said, "I don't have any demands. I just want to live a peaceful life without being bullied. Your ability to wipe out the Demon Realm is a help to me."

These words sound pitiful, portraying her as weak and helpless, and more importantly, they reveal that her relationship with the demon realm is not friendly.

It's also a kind of hint: even if you wipe out the demon realm, I won't avenge it!

This is Ah Qi's will to survive.

Lin Yi didn't think too much about it, but sighed inwardly, realizing that even as the Demon Ancestor, Ah Qi's life in the Demon Realm wasn't easy.

However, this makes sense. Those in high positions can bully those in low positions. Those who are not in the highest position will always be bullied by those in power.

The same applies to the demon realm, the immortal realm, and the human realm.

Speaking of the Demon Realm, Lin Yi sighed again, "I wouldn't say I've completely wiped out the Demon Realm. On this trip, I didn't see a single Demon Ancestor. Where did all those Demon Ancestors go?"

Lin Yi thought it was outrageous.

Ah Qi promptly provided information, saying, "After the turmoil in the Demon Realm back then, those who were capable of leaving the Demon Realm all left."

Some ended up in the human world, some hid in the celestial realm, and others were small worlds created by other gods.

Those who remain in the Demon Realm are those who lack the strength to leave.

"So, I just cleared out a bunch of old, weak, sick, and disabled people?"

Lin Yi felt somewhat displeased.

He thought his operation was a swift and decisive one, but...

Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore.

"That's not entirely true. Many demons didn't have the good fortune that time. The space tremor caused instability in the Three Realms barrier. Even after the barrier recovered, some powerful true demons still found it difficult to escape."

Ah Qi's words were a form of consolation for Lin Yi.

Those who remain are not necessarily weak; they may simply be unlucky.

"So, the true fighting power of the Demon Realm is actually outside the Demon Realm."

Lin Yi then realized that he had gone in the wrong direction.

However, the demons are very well hidden and scattered throughout the myriad realms. Even Ah Qi, who is also a demon ancestor, dares not say that he can find other demons.

"By the way, why has your strength increased so rapidly in just a few days? Did you have some kind of fortuitous encounter?"

While chopping vegetables, Lin Yi casually asked a question.

Aqi's heart skipped a beat. She finally understood why Lin Yi had been trying so hard to seduce her—it was because of her improved strength.

She had no intention of betraying the Demon Lord, but unfortunately, she was trapped by Lin Yi's side.

Lin Yi was highly skilled and could see through the change in her strength at a glance.

Now, Ah Qi has also come to a realization.

Lin Yi has now revealed his true intentions. She either has to keep the Demon Lord's secret to herself and be killed by Lin Yi, or betray the Demon Lord and confess quickly.

After hesitating for only three seconds, Ah Qi made his choice.

"Better to sacrifice your friend than yourself." He hesitated for three seconds before betraying his teammate; how shameful!

Ah Qi decisively confessed about the Demon Lord's gift, and Lin Yi's heart sank upon hearing it.

Now, he has one more enemy.

Since the Demon Lord is the leader of the Demon Race, he is naturally an enemy.

After all, Lin Yi had been ruthless in his slaughter of the demons, showing no mercy whatsoever.

After he killed many demons, the Demon Lord awoke and greatly enhanced the strength of the surviving demons.

Today he can buff the demon race, and in the future, he will surely awaken.

"Strike first to gain the upper hand. Do you know how to find other Demon Ancestors?"

Lin Yi's words concealed a deep killing intent.

Ah Qi was completely stunned in Shanghai.

Even if you're trying to take advantage of someone, you can't just target me, can you?

Chapter 615 Borrowing a Hook to Fish

Having already been a mole once, Ah Qi certainly wouldn't mind being one again.

But this time the situation is different.

She's going from being an informant to a traitor, which naturally changes the level of danger.

But does she have the right to choose?

The murderous intent that Lin Yi revealed could be directed at other demon ancestors, or it could be directed at her.

At this moment, Ah Qi was completely at ease.

"There is no special perception between the Demon Ancestors, but the Demon Ancestors can send out unique messages that only the Demon Ancestors can perceive."

In other words, you can send messages, but it's uncertain whether the other person will reply.

Even if they reply to the message, they may not be able to pinpoint the Demon Ancestor's location.

The demon ancestors who have survived to this day are all masters of survival, each with their own way of making a living. They do not easily trust others, nor do they easily expose themselves.

Demons are all born cunning and treacherous, masters of stealth and ambush, and rarely expose themselves.

Even if Ah Qi can send a message, it might not be enough to lure them out.

Moreover, Lin Yi killed so many demons in a short period of time. As long as the other demon ancestors weren't stupid, they would definitely guess that there was a traitor among them.

If at this moment, a demon ancestor wanted to find out their location...

Thinking of this, Ah Qi said with some worry, "The demons are all cautious. I'm afraid I won't be able to deceive them and will instead arouse their suspicion."

From the moment she mentioned that she could send messages to the Demon Ancestor, Ah Qi knew that Lin Yi would take advantage of this, so she voiced her concerns in advance.

After a moment's thought, Lin Yi quickly made up his mind.

"You only need to deliver one message: the Great Demon King Eye Demon Ancestor has been suppressed in the mortal realm by the Celestial Venerable of the Immortal Realm. The Demon Race is facing a life-or-death moment. Please come to the mortal realm to rescue the Eye Demon Ancestor."

Will they come?

Ah Qi couldn't believe that such a simple sentence of his could attract other demon ancestors.

Lin Yi must be thinking too highly of the Demon Ancestor. They would only be happy if the Great Demon Ancestor, who is also a Demon Ancestor, died. Why would they come to the rescue on their own initiative?

Lin Yi noticed her confusion, but chuckled and said, "Aren't you a demon in your heart? You can't even see such a simple truth?"

Ah Qi: "..."

I always feel like I'm going to be humiliated.

Sure enough, Lin Yi continued, "The demons fight each other and are selfish. They will definitely be careful to guard against traps and schemes, so no demon ancestor will come to join you."

Isn't this a strategic failure?

Ah Qi didn't understand Lin Yi's actions.

But then Lin Yi explained, "If you want to lure those demon ancestors, you need bait that can tempt them."

The key message I asked you to deliver is that the Eye Demon King has been suppressed. Will the other Demon Ancestors let this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity pass them by?

Where there is profit to be made in the human world, those demons will naturally come.

The reasoning is very simple; you'll understand if you think about it yourself.

Ah Qi: "..."

How about I give you the position of Demon Ancestor, and you can sit there?

Ah Qi genuinely believed that Lin Yi was more like a demon ancestor than she was.

With Lin Yi's explanation, A Qi naturally followed suit.

When the news spread, the various demon ancestors reacted in different ways.

Zhang Jiao was naturally furious; she saw through Lin Yi's sinister intentions at a glance.

This is intended to use her to incite the demons to kill each other.

Her strength is indeed the strongest in the Demon Realm, but if she is under suppression, then it's hard to say.

Among those demon ancestors, there will always be some ambitious individuals who, upon learning of her suppression, may begin to plot to seize her power.

Even though she knew it was a conspiracy, and even knew who was behind it, she was helpless.

Since Lin Yi has already made his move, she has no choice but to accept it. Whether she can counterattack depends on her abilities.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jiao's competitive spirit was also ignited.

After a moment's thought, Zhang Jiao responded.

She used her magic to send a message to all the demon ancestors.

"The Eye Demon King is sealed in the Five Elements Forbidden Zone and cannot use any supernatural powers or spells. Everyone who goes to rescue him must be careful. The Eye Demon King will be powerless to fight, and it will be dangerous if he encounters the guardians."

The first message from Ah Qi stirred up many demon ancestors, who were eager to investigate immediately. However, when another message came out, many demon ancestors dared not act rashly.

The waters here are too deep; many demon ancestors don't have the confidence to handle it.

When Ah Qi reported the news to Lin Yi, Lin Yi laughed instead.
