She never expected that such a thing could be done.

It's always been the gods who fight over human affairs, but this time Lin Yi actually stole a god's possession.

Based on this calculation, Lin Yi might actually have a chance to win this time.

No matter how angry the Heavenly Court is, it can't do anything about Lin Yi, the human king. Now, the Great Shang Dynasty is prosperous and has the protection of the Heavenly Dao.

The fairies, including Chenxi, had just descended to the mortal realm when they were struck by this bolt from the blue, leaving them somewhat bewildered.

What a hellish start!

When Lei Zhen descended to the mortal realm, he was assisted by the local earth god and the mountain god. However, when they descended to the mortal realm, they might have to be wary of being discovered by the local earth god.

Left with no other choice, they had to start by targeting the territory of the Five Sacred Mountains.

The mountain gods of the Five Sacred Mountains are the Five Heavenly Emperors, who are capable of protecting them.

Chenxi decided to split the troops into five groups of four. She would lead the group to Mount Song, Jueying to Mount Heng, Yanling to Mount Hua, Huaqing to Mount Tai, and Bailin to Mount Heng.

Bai Lin is a subordinate of Gouchen Heavenly Emperor and has the highest cultivation level among those who descended to the mortal realm this time. Moreover, she also possesses a treasure bestowed by Gouchen Heavenly Emperor that can offset the weakening effect of the Heavenly Dao.

Her combat power is close to that of three million years of cultivation.

The Heavenly Emperor Gouchen sent her down to the mortal realm to seek revenge, and he bestowed upon her countless treasures.

Therefore, Chenxi also granted Bailin the right to move freely.

We're all on the same side, so we should make things convenient for each other.

They had two objectives in splitting their forces.

Firstly, to investigate the cause of Lei Zhen's death; secondly, to take over Lei Zhen's work and continue to ruin the fate of the Shang Dynasty.

But now, they have a third mission: to assassinate the deity appointed by the Shang Dynasty.

This was an urgent order issued by the Heavenly Court after they descended to the mortal realm.

Allowing the immortals bestowed by the Shang Dynasty to live even one more day is an insult to the Heavenly Court.

What they wanted to do was to assassinate as many gods as possible, so that those gods would not dare to stay in their divine positions, thus making the gods appointed by the emperor a joke.

The Great Celestial Venerable also issued a decree to make it clear to the human world that the power of the monarch is a divine gift and does not belong to the emperors of the human world!

Therefore, Commander-in-Chief Chenxi decided to divide the troops into five groups, each finding a suitable place to settle before launching their respective operations.

At this moment, at the foot of Mount Tai, Hua Qing slowly arrived with three fairies, her heart filled with resentment.

The three fairies beside her were all under the command of the Flower Fairy: Peony, Red Plum, and Peony. When Hua Qing started to complain, she had no qualms.

“We usually only take care of some flowers and plants, but now we have to go down to the mortal world to kill people. I don’t even know where to start.”

Hua Qing sighed helplessly, as did the three fairies.

The fairies around the Flower Fairy are all flower spirits who have cultivated themselves into immortals. They are not good at fighting and killing, but only good at doing logistical work. However, they were chosen to descend to the mortal world.

But fate is hard to defy; they couldn't adapt, so they had no choice but to obey.

"Fortunately, the fairy has a good relationship with many fairies. If we go and ask Fairy Bixia for help, maybe she can help us."

Hua Qing quickly thought of currying favor with a powerful figure; their boss was well-liked, so there was no reason not to use him.

Unfortunately, they were unlucky; the Bixia they knew was no longer the fairy Bixia they had come to know…

The Demon Lord has been descending upon the mortal realm for nearly a year.

For such a long time, she hasn't caused any trouble. One reason is that Bixia is trying her best to fight against the Demon Lord, but the main reason is that the Demon Lord is constantly studying this world.

Now, she has a pretty good understanding of it.

In this world, the only one she needs to be wary of is the Great Celestial Venerable in the heavens. She doesn't need to take the Heavenly Emperors below him seriously.

She had met the Eastern Heavenly Emperor, but he had not noticed that she had taken over Bixia's body.

After a year of patience, it's about time to start devouring this world.

However, the first person to be dealt with is Bixia.

This is not difficult at all; she has plenty of ways to deal with a minor deity who has a weakness in his heart.

"Do you know that your sweetheart did something big recently?"

Bixia remained silent. She knew that the Demon Lord was not speaking to her with good intentions, and she absolutely could not listen to him.

"He killed all the mountain gods, land gods, and city gods in the world, but he spared the Five Sacred Mountains. But it's probably only a matter of time before he makes his move on you."

Bixia pretended not to hear and ignored it.

The Demon Lord knew, however, that she must have taken his words to heart.

"He has already forgotten you, so he will naturally not show any mercy when the time comes. It's just a pity that you still have feelings for him."

The Demon Lord tried to provoke Bixia's emotions, but Bixia remained unmoved, her heart as firm as a rock, showing no sign of emotion.

Just then, Hua Qing and the other fairies arrived at Mount Tai.

The Demon Lord had no choice but to stop his provocation of Bixia and instead received the four fairies, including Huaqing.

Upon hearing their purpose, the Demon Lord thought to himself, "It's good that they've come."

She made sure Bixia could hear what these people were saying, and then fanned the flames by saying to Bixia, "Your man has stirred up a hornet's nest. With so many gods descending to the mortal realm, he's probably not going to get away with this."

However, since we've known each other for a while, how about I lend you a hand?

Bixia's heart stirred, wondering what the Demon Lord meant by "help." But then she saw the Demon Lord arrange accommodations for the four fairies, leave the temple, and then engulf them in clouds of mist.

The four fairies suddenly became dazed, but the next second they became lively and energetic again.

"What did you do to them?!"

Bixia knew this was definitely not a good thing.

"Of course, I'll turn them into puppets. Their minds aren't as firm as yours. I can easily subdue them with a single move."

"you……"

"What? I'm helping you and your lover. Do you really want them to ruin your lover's plans?"

Bixia: "..."

"You yourself want to stop them, I'm just helping you..."

The Demon Lord seized upon the loophole and launched a frenzied attack on Bixia's mental defenses.

"I know what you really want is to kill Lingyi and take her place. Don't be afraid to admit it. Believe me, I will help you..."

Chapter 668 The Demon Lord's Scheme

The Demon Lord has been possessing Bixia's body for some time now, so he naturally knows her weaknesses clearly.

She devoured several fairies from the lower realms, and Bixia felt guilty, but not much.

This person had already made up his mind to become a rebel, and besides, Hua Qing and the others were there to deal with Lin Yi.

It's likely that even if she hadn't controlled Bixia, Bixia would have secretly found a way to deal with them for Lin Yi.

But Lingyi is different.

The Demon Lord understood the complex emotions in Bixia's heart.

She resented Lingyi, but she also liked Lingyi very much and sincerely wished her well.

She saw Lingyi as another version of herself, one who hadn't been able to take that step.

So in a way, Bixia is a lonely guardian.

Only she knew how she felt; she couldn't tell anyone.

If you want to completely break Bixia's defenses, it might be easier to start with Lingyi.

Only in this way will Bixia feel even more guilty.

The Demon Lord had already devised a plan on how to deal with Lingyi.

It's definitely not feasible for her to personally storm into the Shang Dynasty's palace.

Although she is powerful now, she is still suppressed by the laws of heaven in the mortal world. If she were to go to the capital of the Shang Dynasty, she would also be suppressed by the fortune of the mortal world.

She wasn't good at direct combat, so why expose herself?

She hasn't been able to summon her capable subordinates yet. After some time, when her understanding of this world deepens, she will be able to summon Ah Da to help her.

Of course, in the current situation, she doesn't need an assistant; she can manipulate these people all by herself.

Since Lingyi was in the palace, she naturally had a way to lure Lingyi out.

The method is also very simple.

She manipulated four fairies, including Hua Qing, to secretly discuss an assassination plan. All four of them were herself, but she was able to play each role so that no one else could tell.

The heated discussion was overheard by Linglin, who happened to be passing by.

Linglin would probably ignore ordinary news.

But the topic Hua Qing was discussing was how to assassinate the princess.

The princess is Linglin's older sister. How could she resist telling on her?

The Demon Lord and Ling Lin have been together for a long time. This goddess is calm and composed, without any flaws. Otherwise, she would have devoured her long ago.

But Linglin knew very well what she cared about.

Sure enough, while she was loudly plotting, Linglin overheard her, seemingly unintentionally.

“I’ve heard that the princess has enjoyed the king’s favor exclusively for a year and is still not pregnant. We can start from this point.”

"Hua Qing" offered a suggestion, and "Mu Dan" immediately chimed in, "Good idea! We just need to spread the word that the Queen has no children because she hasn't offered sacrifices to the gods. They will be forced by public opinion to go out and offer sacrifices to the gods."

"As long as we're not in the capital, our operation should be easy to succeed."

Having overheard the plan, Ling Lin found these mortal fairies utterly disgusting. They lacked the uprightness and integrity expected of celestial beings from the upper realm, yet they were quite cunning in using such despicable methods.

No, she has to stop it!

Ling Lin never expected this to be the Demon Lord's scheme. After receiving the news, she left Mount Tai without making a sound and quietly went to the palace to meet Lin Yi.

Although there was an awkward incident one morning, as Lin Yi had expected, Ling Lin didn't say anything, and the matter passed.
