I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

After that, Linglin would occasionally come to the palace to sit and chat with Lingyi.

However, Linglin would also restrain herself and only come once or twice a month.

Each time he came, he would avoid Lin Yi and chat with Ling Yi alone.

Therefore, when Lin Yi saw Ling Lin come over this time, he felt that something was wrong.

"What happened?"

Lin Yi asked with concern.

Ling Lin then told Lin Yi everything she had overheard. Lin Yi was not surprised at all to hear that the celestial realm had sent gods down to the mortal world again.

Killing the vanguard and receiving reinforcements is normal, but since these reinforcements actually dared to target Lingyi, he had to kill them before they could make a move.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Yi instructed Ling Lin, "I will definitely protect your sister. You must also be careful."

If they discover the plan has been leaked, they might cause you trouble.

"I'm fine."

Ling Lin was very clear about her identity.

If you inform on someone, no matter how much evidence you have, it's useless unless you're caught red-handed.

Even if caught in the act, it's just a minor matter; a reprimand and education will suffice.

She was only worried about her older sister. On the surface, she had severed ties with the two saints, so Lingyi would not be protected. Those ruthless gods would not show any mercy to Lingyi.

Seeing Ling Lin's carelessness, Lin Yi couldn't help but admonish her: "Don't be too careless. In the current situation, your situation is actually not safe."

I understand your protectiveness of your sister, but no matter what, you should prioritize protecting yourself.

"..."

Lin Yi's concern was evident in his words.

Ling Lin couldn't help but feel a subtle sensation; this was the first time someone had ever reminded her to be careful.

She has always been well-behaved and sensible, and has never needed anyone to worry about her.

Whenever something happens, her parents will only give Lingyi some advice or tell her to take good care of Lingyi.

Ling Lin felt a warmth in her heart, but then she suddenly remembered the conversation she had overheard that day, and her face suddenly flushed. Looking at Lin Yi again, she felt a little flustered and quickly said, "I know, I will be careful."

She didn't dare to be alone with Lin Yi, and left in a hurry after saying that.

After Ling Lin left, Lin Yi began to think again.

He always felt that something was wrong.

Cultivating immortality is not about fighting and killing, but about understanding human relationships and worldly affairs.

Lin Yi didn't know how many years the Heavenly Court had existed, but the Queen Mother of the West and the King Father of the East were definitely among the oldest of the gods.

Who would dare to offend such a top figure so easily?

A few gods from the mortal realm dared to plot against their daughter; they probably don't know the meaning of death.

Or, if you offend these two, death might be the best solution.

So when Lin Yi heard Ling Lin's information, his first thought was that something was wrong.

But for the time being, he couldn't be completely sure that something was wrong.

What if there really are a few hotheads?

Years of life experience have taught Lin Yi not to easily treat others as fools, but also never to underestimate the lower limit of others' intelligence.

What if there really are a few idiots?

Lin Yi naturally wouldn't dare gamble with Ling Yi's life.

But if one's suspicions are correct, and the other party is not a fool, then what is their purpose?

Perhaps... their target is actually Ling Lin, or perhaps someone wants to make a move against the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother?

Lin Yi thought about it deeply and found that this possibility was also very high.

The Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother have long held high positions, and there will always be people who want them to step down.

Previously, there was no opportunity to take action, but now that Lingyi has become a weakness, this is the only chance to make a move against them.

If that's the case, the mastermind behind this is quite formidable.

Following this line of thought, the other party may have deliberately let Ling Lin overhear so that she could come and report the news. Ling Lin's behavior is equivalent to betraying the Immortal Realm's camp.

As long as the matter reaches the heavens, the Eastern King and Western Queen Mother will surely step in to protect her, and in this way, the mastermind behind the scenes can use this opportunity to launch a devastating attack.

This logic is reasonable. It doesn't mean that his guess is correct, but it's certainly possible.

That being the case...

Then this sacrificial ceremony may have to proceed according to the enemy's plan.

Another thing that concerned Lin Yi was the assassination plan that Ling Lin had mentioned.

This time, the gods descending to the mortal realm are trying to assassinate the gods he appointed. If they succeed, it will certainly cause great damage to his authority and the stability of the Shang Dynasty.

He was determined to stop this.

Unfortunately, he couldn't go straight to the Five Sacred Mountains and kill all those immortals.

He had to protect Linglin from suspicion and prevent her from becoming a suspect in informing on him.

Lin Yi also had plenty of ways to deal with those gods.

On that day, stories of mortal sword immortals suddenly spread throughout the Shang Dynasty.

This is Lin Yi's purpose in training storytellers.

In this era of underdeveloped media, he could only manually cultivate his "tongue" to convey the information he wanted to transmit.

Most ordinary people don't know the name Sword Immortal, but within the Jingye Division, those who don't know it are a minority.

Lin Yi has been using the pseudonym "Sword Immortal" for many years, and has long since gained a certain degree of fame and a group of supporters.

Now, when people tell stories of sword immortals, some of the facts are true, making it easier for them to believe the tales.

The story of this sword immortal is relatively simple. To summarize, it is about an evil mountain god who unleashes tigers to devour people, and a righteous sword immortal who, in his rage, acts ruthlessly.

The story tells of a local mountain god who was worshipped by the people, but instead of protecting the area, he allowed tigers to run rampant and wreak havoc, causing immense suffering to the local people.

Lin Yi can conjure up these template stories with ease, and he's a professional at stirring up public sentiment.

People despise those who abuse their privileges without doing anything, who enjoy their rights while constantly bullying honest people.

This part of the story stirred up a lot of hatred, so when the listeners heard that a sword immortal had killed a big tiger in anger, and then killed the mountain god behind the tiger, they all clapped and cheered.

The story was short, and one listen was enough. Lin Yi then wrote different short stories for each of them.

Today the mountain god is killed, tomorrow the earth god is killed; in short, there are plenty of bad guys for the sword immortal to kill.

The story was told with a murderous intensity, and the audience found it incredibly satisfying.

In addition, the imperial court recently abolished the previous mountain gods and land gods and appointed respected people from various places to replace them, so people began to believe these stories to be true.

Some people have also begun to share their personal experiences, saying how cruel the mountain gods of the past were and how fair the gods of today are.

In a short time, the people naturally accepted the court's decision to re-appoint gods and immortals.

The gods of the past were too evil, so what's wrong with replacing them with a better batch of gods?

Lin Yi's move can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

While secretly spreading new ideas, he also incited hatred among the gods of the immortal realm by using the alias "Sword Immortal".

Sure enough, as the story of the sword immortal spread far and wide, the immortals naturally heard about it as well.

Soon, this sword immortal became the prime suspect in Lei Zhen's murder.

In the story, Lin Yi also focused on describing the sword immortal's attire.

Dressed in white, exuding an ethereal aura, she held a long red sword and wore a mask.

Wherever demons and monsters harm people, there sword immortals will appear.

Having learned of this information, Bai Lin was the first to take action.

She went down the mountain, killed several people, drained their life essence, and disguised herself as an evil spirit to kill them.

If this matter is reported to the Jingye Division, that sword immortal will definitely take action!

Bai Lin, along with three subordinates, lay in ambush at the scene of the incident, waiting for Lin Yi to make his appearance.

She thought she was fishing, but little did she know that Lin Yi simply lacked a reason to act without implicating Ling Lin.

Now, that reason is there.

Upon seeing the news from within the Jingye Division, Lin Yi knew that the plan to lure the enemy out of their hole was perfect, and his hard work of staying up all night writing had not been in vain.

These days, there are indeed some people in the capital talking about the princess's childlessness.

After the previous bloody massacre, this time no one dared to mention taking a concubine, nor did anyone dare to attack the princess.

They simply suggested that the princess go and pay homage to the goddess Nuwa.

That seemed to make some sense, but Lin Yi already had Ling Lin's tip-off, so he naturally knew the reason behind it.

This time, Lin Yi did not refuse the minister's suggestion, but instead agreed, contrary to his usual practice.

However, Lin Yi postponed the sacrificial ceremony to next month.

Since it is a sacrifice to Nuwa, it should naturally be grand and formal, and an auspicious day should be chosen before setting off.

Lin Yi was confident that he could wipe out this group of gods from the lower realm within a month.

Sure enough, the first wave of experts immediately jumped out.

Following their scent, Lin Yi could then legitimately break into the Five Sacred Mountains and kill them.

Now his cultivation is extremely high, and he has no rivals in the human world.

Bai Lin figured that if Lin Yi could kill Lei Zhen, who had 200,000 years of cultivation, then his cultivation level was probably between 200,000 and 500,000 years.

She has a million years of cultivation, so she can kill anyone she wants.

However, Lin Yi has killed countless immortals and gods, and his cultivation level has now reached an extremely terrifying level.
