I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

It seems that Zhang Jiao's situation is indeed very bad; otherwise, she would have no reason to fear the other demon ancestors.

After he made his move, Zhang Jiao did the opposite, making the act of releasing bait too direct, which scared the fish away.

From this perspective, Zhang Jiao appears to be somewhat fierce on the outside but weak on the inside.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have to worry about anyone harming her.

Being able to probe Zhang Jiao's true strength and weakness would be a good result.

As for whether the demons will come, Lin Yi is not in a hurry.

He used Zhang Jiao as a harbinger; what's meant to happen will happen eventually.

Lin Yi hadn't expected that this group of demon ancestors would take the bait so quickly.

A true demon descended near Wine Jar Mountain and provoked Zhang Jiao in every way.

Zhang Jiao knew this was a death sentence; whether she made a move or not, this true demon was doomed.

It's a pity that some fools still fell for Lin Yi's trick.

However, upon closer reflection, Zhang Jiao realized that this was also somewhat related to her.

Previously, Zhang Jiao had led a group of demons to attack the territory of the Ziwei Heavenly Emperor, forcing the Ziwei Star to react, thus finding an opportunity to kill the Ziwei Heavenly Emperor.

Not all demon ancestors knew that this was a major event she had accomplished, but the clever demon ancestors would deduce it based on some information.

After all, there are traces of what Zhang Jiao did.

Even though the demon ancestors confirmed that Zhang Jiao had indeed been suppressed, they did not dare to come and provoke her in person.

Though the tiger is dead, its power remains.

Besides, Zhang Jiao isn't dead yet; she's just been suppressed. Who knows how much supernatural power she still has left?

That's how the real demon came to wander over and provoke Zhang Jiao.

Use a cannon fodder to test Zhang Jiao's strengths and weaknesses; after testing, it's time to take action.

This is a rare opportunity, and no one wants to miss it.

Lin Yi and Zhang Jiao both knew that after this cannon fodder was eliminated, the next fish would definitely come; it was just a matter of time.

Zhang Jiao did not react to the provocation.

In fact, she has a demon seed outside, which she can activate at any time to kill this little true demon with ease.

But Zhang Jiao chose to ignore it.

She had already given those of her kind a chance; if it weren't for the fact that they still had some use to her, she would have long ago taken over the authority of many demon ancestors.

The reason she didn't do that was because she clearly understood the importance of the race to the individual. In terms of combat, low-strength demons were utterly useless.

However, if faced with a war between clans, such as a decisive battle between the Demon Realm and the Immortal Realm or between the Human Realm, it would be meaningless if she were the only demon. Even if she were hundreds of times stronger.

Both the mortal realm and the celestial realm are constantly plotting to overthrow her.

If we kill just one of her, the entire demon race will be wiped out.

It's different if there's a clan. As long as the clan is large enough, it becomes a deterrent to the outside world. Neither the human realm nor the immortal realm will think that eliminating one demon ancestor can solve the problems of the demon realm.

Demons can gather together or scatter throughout the Three Realms.

As long as the demon race exists, it can always pose a threat to the Three Realms, which also forces the Immortal Realm not to be too harsh on the Demon Ancestor.

Unfortunately, those selfish and self-serving demons only care about immediate gains and lack this kind of vision.

Zhang Jiao did not want to kill any of her own kind unless absolutely necessary.

A great upheaval was imminent, and she did not want to waste her energy on internal strife.

But these fellow clansmen didn't know what was good for them, and Zhang Jiao wasn't an indecisive person.

She was ruthless enough that since these people of her clan dared to plot against her, they shouldn't blame her for using others to do her dirty work.

Seeing Zhang Jiao's remarkable tolerance, the demon knew that she probably lacked supernatural abilities; otherwise, given her status, how could she endure his clamor?

The cannon fodder demon reached a conclusion and stopped performing in front of Zhang Jiao, hurrying back to report.

The next day, the Demon Ancestor arrived.

Lin Yi kept a close watch using his Heavenly Eye and secretly informed Xihe and Wangshu.

He hadn't given them any instructions in a long time, and this time he had no other choice but to let them take action.

Fortunately, as goddesses, it was their duty to suppress the demons, so it was perfectly reasonable for them to come and kill the Demon Ancestor.

In this way, Lin Yi can once again enjoy a leisurely life of simply accumulating buffs without fighting, and seize power without needing to engage in combat.

Lin Yi loves this kind of easy win.

Even if Xihe and Wangshu cannot be killed, Lin Yi can still record the Demon Ancestor in the Demon Subduing Manual.

They ran away as soon as they made it onto the list.

This time, a total of five Demon Ancestors descended to the mortal realm.

Lin Yi really underestimated the power of using Zhang Jiao as a harbinger. Besides Zhang Jiao herself, there was also A Qi, whose demonic freedom was restricted, and the Seven Demon Ancestors were all lured over.

This effect is simply unbeatable.

At the foot of Wine Vessel Mountain, Zhang Jiao's true form was immersed in immortal wine, feeling very comfortable. She had been sleeping soundly for a long time, but today she has awakened.

Upon seeing the five demon ancestors who had arrived, Zhang Jiao couldn't help but sneer.

"Are you all here to save me out of gratitude for past kindness?"

Zhang Jiao knew perfectly well what these people were here for; she was only asking this question to mock them.

She had so many opportunities to kill everyone and become the sole Demon Ancestor, but she didn't. Now, someone else has come to seize her power.

Indeed, being kind to others is being cruel to oneself.

The five demon ancestors also understood Zhang Jiao's meaning, but they were demons.

The demon race has no concept of etiquette, morality, or shame; they only care about interests!

Faced with Zhang Jiao's sarcasm, the demon ancestors didn't care at all. They didn't even bother with any foreplay and went straight to the point: "Hand over your origin, we don't want to fight."

It wasn't that he didn't want to take action, but rather that he was still somewhat wary of Zhang Jiao.

Even though the previous cannon fodder demons had already been tested, they were still afraid.

If we could seize Zhang Jiao's power without lifting a finger, that would be a win-win situation.

Of course, they also knew it was unlikely.

If Zhang Jiao really surrenders without a fight, they will definitely be even less likely to let her go.

Having made such a grudge, I won't feel at ease until I kill him quickly.

As expected, Zhang Jiao replied coldly, "If you want it, come and get it yourselves!"

At this moment, all five demon ancestors became somewhat nervous.

Any attempts made by the cannon fodder true demons were now meaningless.

At this point, you have to face the danger alone.

The five demon ancestors exchanged glances and decided to take a gamble.

Since we're already here, if we're scared away by Zhang Jiao's intimidation, how will we ever have the face to show our faces in public again?

Besides, while the five of them individually might not be a match for Zhang Jiao, the combined strength of the five of them, coupled with Zhang Jiao's suppression, suggests they might not truly be a match for her.

Fight!

Seeing the changes in their expressions, Xihe and Wangshu, who were secretly observing, also felt a surge of excitement.

After observing for so long, the fight is finally about to break out.

Who do you think will win?

Xihe, feeling bored, asked Wangshu a question.

"I guess it's Zhang Jiao again."

"Can she take on five people by herself?"

Xihe was somewhat skeptical.

Wang Shu said calmly, "Father's wine vessel suppressed Zhang Jiao and became her best protective barrier."

To harm Zhang Jiao, they would have to enter the wine vessel together.

But in that case, the five Demon Ancestors would also be suppressed.

"You can do that?"

Xihe realized this, and according to Wangshu, Zhang Jiao would most likely win.

This is an outcome they did not want to see.

"Unless they can hurt Zhang Jiao without even going inside."

Wang Shu forcibly nursed Zhang Jiao, and then the demon ancestors started to fight.

"A deafeningly loud voice!"

The Second Demon Ancestor unleashed his power, and Wang Shuxi, who was watching from afar, was also affected by the demonic sound, with illusions appearing in her mind.

Fortunately, they were also determined and were not corrupted by the magic.

They indeed possessed a spell that could affect Zhang Jiao without entering the wine vessel.

If that's the case, Zhang Jiao is in danger.

For a moment, Xihe also felt a sense of anticipation. She hoped that Zhang Jiao would be killed by the Demon Ancestor, so that no one would threaten her and no one would know that she had harbored demonic thoughts.

Unfortunately, Zhang Jiao's abilities were greater than they appeared.

The demonic sound piercing her ears did not cause her any harm. On the contrary, after the Ear Demon Ancestor used his supernatural power, an eye silently grew out of his brow.

He himself did not realize that the first thing he saw was the Nose Demon Ancestor, and he sensed a dangerous aura.

"You have eyes on your body!"

"You've grown too!"
