I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

As the fog on the island dissipated, Lin Yi was able to see the island's scenery.

There are so many cultivators here, including immortals and mortals.

If I'm not mistaken, this is the Penglai Immortal Island that he failed to find back then.

Of the four fairy realms, only Penglai is the fastest to run and the quickest to hide.

Back then, Lin Yi lacked cultivation and wiped out the other three immortal realms, with only Penglai escaping unscathed.

Lin Yi couldn't find Penglai back then, so the matter was dropped. Unexpectedly, now that he has enough cultivation, he found Penglai while looking for Yan Qingqiu.

How could Yan Qingqiu be on Penglai Immortal Island?

Lin Yi harbored doubts and refrained from making any rash moves, instead searching for Yan Qingqiu's whereabouts on the island.

Not long after, I saw her under a peach tree.

A person and a tree, chatting.

"Many things have deviated from your expected trajectory. Do you still want to continue?"

"The process did deviate somewhat, but the result remained unchanged."

Is there only one right path?

"It's a blessing to have even one, how can we ask for more?"

Lin Yi eavesdropped for a long time but still couldn't understand what they were saying.

They're making an encrypted call here!

He didn't show himself to disturb them, but wanted to see what Yan Qingqiu was doing in private.

With his current strength, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to deceive Yan Qingqiu.

Yan Qingqiu indeed did not notice Lin Yi's spying. After talking with Hongluan Immortal Lord for a while, she went straight to the point and asked, "Do you still have the things I entrusted to you for safekeeping back then?"

"of course."

Give it back to me.

The Crimson Phoenix Immortal nodded, then turned around and reached into the tree trunk, his hand disappearing directly into the tree trunk.

Lin Yi could see very clearly that although the Red Phoenix Immortal Lord had already cultivated to become an immortal, he was not yet fully accomplished.

Therefore, after she transformed, her expression appeared particularly stiff.

While both had serious expressions, Yan Qingqiu's face was much more lively.

Plant demons have never had an easy time cultivating, and even if they become immortals, the constraints of their bodies still remain.

But now, the Crimson Phoenix Immortal Lord was harming his own body in such a way, which truly surprised Lin Yi.

This grab really reached into the heart of the peach tree.

Then, she took out a seven-colored gem from the heart of the tree.

The aura of the Crimson Phoenix Immortal Lord weakened at a visible speed. Yan Qingqiu sprayed a few drops of red liquid onto the tree, and the Crimson Phoenix Immortal Lord's condition recovered somewhat.

Lin Yi: "..."

If I'm not mistaken, it should be his blood.

No one knows when Yan Qingqiu secretly hid it, but it was very easy for her to do this kind of thing.

"Thank you for your hard work over the years."

Yan Qingqiu accepted the seven-colored gemstone and thanked the Red Phoenix Immortal Lord.

"You should rest well and continue to keep Penglai Immortal Island closed. You will achieve enlightenment one day."

Immortal Lord Hongluan shook his head but said nothing, instead returning to the peach tree's body to recuperate.

She had dug something out of the tree's heart, and her condition was very poor. She needed to recover as soon as possible to avoid damaging the tree's foundation.

Yan Qingqiu didn't linger. He flew directly off from Penglai Immortal Island and then flew aimlessly around the sea.

Lin Yi had assumed she was using a special method to return to Qingqiu, which was why she hadn't shown herself to him.

Yan Qingqiu suddenly said, "You've followed me all this way, shouldn't you come out now?"

Lin Yi: "..."

How did you notice that?

Lin Yi was a little unconvinced. In order to prevent Yan Qingqiu from discovering that he had been eavesdropping, he made an extra effort to disguise himself.

Not only that, he also used the supernatural powers of the demon race and the underworld, taking the means of concealment and stealth to the extreme.

How could you spot that? Are you out of your mind?

But Lin Yi observed that Yan Qingqiu didn't seem to be faking it, so he had no choice but to obediently show himself.

Although it's rather embarrassing to follow someone in secret, they don't need to worry about it too much.

How did you find me?

Lin Yi revealed himself and appeared in front of Yan Qingqiu. Yan Qingqiu smiled charmingly and said, "Don't underestimate the physical instincts of a vixen. Her body becomes sensitive when her man is nearby!"

Lin Yi: "..."

I have a feeling that there are some suggestive or offensive words mixed in here.

Yan Qingqiu leaned closer and said in a sweet voice, "Don't you want to know how sensitive I am?"

Lin Yi: "..."

Is this something I can ask?

Before Lin Yi could ask, Yan Qingqiu answered himself: "Mainly, your nose will become extremely sensitive, and you'll be able to smell everything your lover has to say. Even if they try to hide it well, you won't be able to escape it!"

That's it?

Lin Yi was greatly disappointed.

If it's just that my nose is very sensitive, what's there to say?

But if you show disappointment, wouldn't that just let the vixen succeed in seducing you?

Lin Yi feigned nonchalance and changed the subject, saying, "I haven't seen you around lately, what have you been up to?"

"Can I take that as you missing me?"

Instead of answering directly, Yan Qingqiu hooked her arm around Lin Yi's and started acting coquettishly.

I have to say, this fox is incredibly clever.

"That's a fair way to understand it!"

Lin Yi knew he wasn't clueless about romance, so he answered her politely. But Yan Qingqiu was also setting a trap for him.

"I really didn't expect that! With so many beautiful women around you, you would still remember me."

I reckon they probably need my help with something again.

Is this how a vixen gets jealous?

Lin Yi was truly exhausted from being pulled around like that.

What's even more embarrassing is... she was right.

Lin Yi was a little embarrassed to speak, but considering the important matter at hand, he had no choice but to brazenly say, "I do have something to ask you."

"Ha, some people really dare to speak up!"

Yan Qingqiu put away her charming demeanor and looked angry, so Lin Yi had no choice but to quickly go over and coax her.

"Of course I'm thinking of you, but I also happen to have something to ask you. That doesn't conflict with anything, right?"

"Hmph, you know perfectly well whether you've been thinking about me or not."

"I've thought about it, absolutely!"

Lin Yi wouldn't dare say that he thinks about her all the time, but he does think about her often, which isn't exactly a lie.

Yan Qingqiu knew when to stop and didn't argue with Lin Yi any longer. He simply emphasized, "From today onwards, you must think of me at least three times a day, for no less than half an hour each time."

"no problem!"

Lin Yi readily agreed.

For things like this, agree first and then discuss it.

Yan Qingqiu didn't argue with Lin Yi, but instead asked, "What problem did you encounter this time?"

"I want to regain my past memories."

"You have amnesia?"

Yan Qingqiu looked surprised, and Lin Yi knew she was mostly acting, so he could only play along and say, "All signs indicate that I am the former King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty."

So, I want to retrieve that part of my memory.

"Then you should say you've recovered memories of your past life, why do you say it's memories of the past?"

"The Goddess of Mount Tai said that I did not enter the cycle of reincarnation, so it cannot be considered a past life."

Lin Yi gave a simple analysis, and the answer wasn't hard to guess.

Assuming that the Goddess of Mount Tai did not deceive him and that he truly did not experience reincarnation, then King Zhou of Shang was not his previous incarnation.

Perhaps he has only lost a part of his memories.

If that's the case, he should indeed try to recover that part of his memory.

Of course, it's also possible that he didn't lose some of his memories, but rather that he has traveled back to the past ten thousand years ago.

This seems to explain why, when King Zhou of Shang died, so many powerful figures in the Three Realms couldn't find his whereabouts.

If it were him from the present traveling back in time, it would be easy to understand.

Having read many novels and watched many TV dramas, Lin Yi has quite a vivid imagination.

Therefore, what he told Yan Qingqiu was not to find lost memories, but to find past memories.

It means that he was King Zhou of Shang in the past, but it doesn't mean that he was King Zhou of Shang in his previous life.

Regardless of which of the two speculations is true, Yan Qingqiu is indeed the most likely person to know the truth, so going to her is definitely the right thing to do.
