I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Those who heard Lin Yi's words felt a mix of emotions.

Although they knew this would be the outcome, they still had mixed feelings when the result actually appeared before their eyes.

Lingyi paused for a moment before answering, "Sister Xia is a friend of mine."

"Alright, since you're not here to see her, tell me your story!"

Lingyi forcibly changed the subject, just as she had done in front of Bixia.

Lin Yi didn't seem to care much about the matter, so he didn't ask any further questions and continued telling the story of the Investiture of the Gods.

Continuing from yesterday's story, the creature returned its bones to its father and its flesh to its mother, and Lotus carried its remains all the way back.

When Jiu Niang learned that her son had died a terrible death, she was overcome with grief once again.

Upon learning that the spirit of Na Tuo was restless, Jiu Niang sought out a master again and learned that three years of offerings of incense could restore his golden body. Just as she was about to succeed, Na Tuo's father, Li Qing, brought people to cause trouble again...

Lin Yi's adaptation was relatively perfunctory, but Lingyi was still deeply attracted by the story.

However, she wasn't in a good mood today and wasn't very engaged in the story.

When Lin Yi realized that it was almost time, he said, "That's enough for today, I should head back now."

Will you come again tomorrow?

Lingyi looked at him, her eyes filled with conflict.

She hoped Lin Yi would come, but she also didn't want him to come over.

This is a painful place for Lin Yi. If he has truly forgotten Bixia, it would be best if he didn't come here.

However, she didn't want to lose Lin Yi as a friend.

Although the two did not spend much time together, Lin Yi became Ling Yi's most special friend.

Lin Yi thought for a moment and said, "I don't know if I'll have time tomorrow, but if I do, I'll come and find you."

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Lingyi was very happy that their bond had not been broken because of Bixia.

The next day, Lin Yi arrived as promised and continued to tell Lingyi stories.

Bixia would observe secretly each time and discover that someone was trying to make Lin Yi happy for her. She really wanted to thank Lingyi.

After all, it was Lingyi who did this when she couldn't be by Lin Yi's side.

Watching Lingyi and Lin Yi grow closer day by day, she felt a pang of jealousy welling up inside her, but she couldn't say anything.

She knew that this frustration was just an appetizer.

She had no choice but to endure it.

In the blink of an eye, another half month has passed.

On this day, the story of the Investiture of the Gods came to an end.

A new dynasty was established, and the protagonists defeated the evil emperor. In recognition of their merits, the gods were re-appointed.

After hearing the story, Lingyi felt a sense of lingering interest.

Bixia, who had been eavesdropping, gleaned Lin Yi's hidden ideology from the story.

To overthrow a corrupt dynasty, one must have the determination to fight!

"I probably won't be coming tomorrow."

After telling this story, Lin Yi said this to Ling Yi.

Lingyi was startled. She had gotten used to spending a few hours with Lin Yi every night and talking to him.

Why didn't you come?

"The story is over, and besides, I'm actually very busy."

This statement is absolutely true; Lin Yi is truly a master of time management.

From day to night, I'm basically handling government affairs.

After a day's work, it's time to tell Lingyi a story.

At midnight, the Sword Immortal disguise comes online. He travels around slaying demons and monsters to improve his cultivation, and he doesn't rest every night.

Lin Yi didn't even spare minor monsters that were ten or twenty years old.

Jingye Division was speechless; this sword immortal's killing intent was far too strong.

They didn't know that Lin Yi had to work four jobs.

After slaying the demons, it was already past midnight when Lin Yi had to go to the giant snake to "check in." Giving blood to the demon-slaying sword was only one reason; more importantly, he had to learn military strategy, formations, and the art of emperors from the giant snake.

After finishing all these tasks, Lin Yi was able to rest briefly before he had to attend to state affairs.

Despite his tight schedule, he insisted on coming over every day to tell Lingyi stories.

He's held on for so long, it's time for him to relax.

"Can't you tell me a new story?"

Lingyi knew she shouldn't have made this request, but she didn't want to directly say that she couldn't bear to part with Lin Yi.

Seeing her reluctance, Lin Yi could only explain, "I'm afraid I won't have much time to tell stories in the future. Someone is already arranging to find me a princess."

"Once I have a princess, I won't be able to go out at night anymore."

"princess!?"

Upon hearing this news, both goddesses were devastated.

Bixia, the eavesdropping maniac, felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Lin Yi was finally going to get married.

Indeed, he had forgotten himself. As the king, he should have been preparing to produce an heir for the kingdom.

She's already given up. What's the point of being sad now that she knows this news?

Bixia tried to pretend she hadn't heard it, but Lin Yi's words kept echoing in her mind.

Lingyi didn't know why, but when she heard Lin Yi say that he wanted to find the princess, she suddenly became very angry.

"Are you going to abandon me as a friend just because of another woman?"

"Uh……"

Lin Yi didn't understand Ling Yi's logic at first. He paused for a moment before explaining, "I still consider you a friend. It's just that after having a princess, I have to spend more time with her."

"So that means you chose your queen over me!"

Lingyi was getting a bit aggressive right now.

Seeing how fierce she was, Lin Yi didn't want to argue with her, so he could only helplessly say, "I don't have a princess yet."

"It will happen sooner or later, and when that happens, you definitely won't talk to me anymore."

Thinking of this, Lingyi suddenly burst into tears, leaving Lin Yi dumbfounded.

Why are you crying?

Is this child really that fragile?

Lin Yi felt helpless and quickly comforted her.

Little did they know, Lingyi was also shocked at this moment.

She couldn't help but ask herself why she was so angry and sad when she knew Lin Yi was going to find the princess.

Lin Yi will hold other women in his arms and kiss them, just like he did with Bixia back then...

Just imagining such a scene made it impossible for her to calm down.

What's wrong with me?

Lingyi wiped away her tears, at a loss. Lin Yi, as if coaxing a child, compromised and said, "Don't cry, don't cry. Even if I have a princess, I will not disown you as a friend."

These words of comfort had no effect whatsoever; instead, they made Lingyi even angrier.

"Go ahead and be with your princess, I don't care if you still want to be my friend!"

After saying that, she took off running and disappeared into the mountains and forests.

Lin Yi: "..."

The women in the mountains are really strange.

He dared not rashly intrude into the territory of the gods, so he had no choice but to return first.

The next day, he arrived as usual, and when he saw that Lingyi hadn't arrived immediately, he even set off fireworks.

But Lingyi still didn't come over.

She was pondering a question: why did the thought of Lin Yi being with other women make her sad and upset?

She didn't dare ask anyone else about this problem, and she couldn't find the answer by thinking about it on her own.

She had no choice but to ask her friends.

The flowers, trees, birds, and beasts in the mountains.

Two birds actually gave her an answer to this question.

"This is possessiveness towards your spouse; you've come to see him as your spouse."

"No, it's impossible!"

Lingyi blushed immediately, and spent the entire day feeling shy.

Throughout the entire day, Lin Yi kept appearing in her mind.

She began to reminisce about the moments she shared with Lin Yi, and the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.

When she found Lin Yi had arrived that evening, she didn't dare go out to see him.

This is the man Bixia likes. Although she was angry with Bixia, she still treated her like a sister.

No matter what, she shouldn't have those kinds of thoughts about Lin Yi, right?

Realizing she had feelings she shouldn't have, Lingyi became afraid and started avoiding Lin Yi.
