I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Before we knew it, it was evening.

Ling Lin told Lin Yi about the demonic aura, but Lin Yi had already seen the note and knew what it meant. He explained it to Ling Lin, which made her feel much more relaxed.

She had been watching over Lingyi all along, but she had never found an opportunity to be alone with Lin Yi.

When night fell and everyone was asleep, Lin Yi disguised himself and went out again.

Yan Qingqiu continued to follow and discovered that Lin Yi was indeed slaying demons and monsters everywhere, without stopping for a moment.

Does this person really have to go to such lengths?

There are many monsters that could be handed over to the Jingye Division to kill; he doesn't need to personally deal with those minor monsters.

But Lin Yi did exactly that.

It wasn't until dawn that Lin Yi returned to the palace and resumed his original appearance.

After reflecting on what he had seen and heard throughout the day, Yan Qingqiu realized that something was amiss.

She didn't even see Lin Yi cultivating!

Lin Yi is a body cultivator, and body cultivators need to practice every day. In addition to practicing, they also need to eat a lot of nourishing foods.

But Lin Yi didn't eat anything. His diet was the same as that of an ordinary person, which was not enough to support Lin Yi's body training.

What went wrong?

Yan Qingqiu had some vague guesses.

When something seems unusual, the answer is often hidden in other unusual behaviors.

For example, Lin Yi goes out every night to slay demons and monsters.

The title of "Sword Immortal" wasn't earned overnight, which means Lin Yi had been doing this every day before.

Yan Qingqiu couldn't help but have a bold idea.

Could it be that Lin Yi has learned some evil cultivation techniques?

The function of this technique may be to plunder the vital energy of others.

This also explains why Lin Yi, despite not taking his medicine and eating meat properly, still possessed such high cultivation levels.

When Lin Yi killed the demon, he also plundered its life force.

However, when she followed Lin Yi, she did not see any changes in the monster's corpse, nor did she see him consuming its essence.

Could it be that some secret technique was used?

Yan Qingqiu had her suspicions, but thinking that Lin Yi hadn't lost his conscience by killing all sorts of monsters indiscriminately, she didn't bother with it.

The moral bottom line of the demon race is more flexible and they are not as particular as the human race.

Even if Lin Yi had practiced some kind of evil magic, Yan Qingqiu didn't care.

"Linglin should be coming to see Lin Yi today."

Yan Qingqiu guessed that the good show would start soon. Yesterday, Ling Lin clearly wanted to talk to Lin Yi, but after being interrupted by her, she held back all day.

If she hadn't come today, Yan Qingqiu would have continued his wall-slamming.

As Yan Qingqiu had predicted, Ling Lin arrived.

While her older sister was still sleeping, Linglin got up.

She discovered Lin Yi practicing swordsmanship at the training ground, and there was no one else around, making it the perfect opportunity to confront him.

At this moment, Lin Yi was practicing his newly comprehended sword technique and was unaware of Ling Lin's arrival.

Last night, he went hunting and happened to encounter a group of immortals who wanted to assassinate the mountain god. Unfortunately for them, they were caught red-handed by Lin Yi and died on the spot.

This is a special destiny, or perhaps a blessing from heaven.

Lin Yi knew that Heaven was on his side, so his luck would improve within a reasonable range.

For example, if he wanted to slay demons and monsters, he could easily find their whereabouts.

When he wanted to kill immortals and gods outside the Five Sacred Mountains, some immortals and gods would come out and die on their own.

This is what is meant by "when the time is right, heaven and earth lend their strength," and it's not entirely due to Lin Yi's own abilities.

The deity killed last night was named Chenxi, and she seemed to be the leader of the mortals this time. She had a very interesting ability: she could transform into a rainbow, which, after sweeping across the land, would burst into flames like the sun.

When Lin Yi saw it, he had a flash of inspiration and wanted to incorporate this technique into his own swordsmanship, so he started practicing here early in the morning.

"With swords like rainbows and dances like whirlwinds, let's call it Fire Dance Whirlwind!"

Lin Yi thought of the cartoons from his childhood and gave this move its name.

The characteristics of Fire Dance Whirlwind are its high speed, great power, ability to attack multiple targets, and the ability to unleash a single-target attack after charging up.

When Ling Lin arrived, she did not disturb Lin Yi's comprehension of sword techniques. Watching Lin Yi wield his sword and dance gracefully, Ling Lin suddenly found that her heart was beating much faster.

This is the feeling of a young girl. Lin Yi's sword dance was already beautiful, and with an added filter, it's no wonder that the young girl was completely captivated.

But Linglin was a composed person. Even though her heart was fluttering, she suppressed her excitement when she thought of her sister and parents. She waited until Lin Yi finished before greeting him, "Brother-in-law."

Good morning, Lin'er.

Ling Lin: "..."

Why is he suddenly calling me so affectionately?

Caught completely off guard, Linglin blushed again.

Lin Yi didn't think there was anything wrong with how he addressed her. That's how Ling Yi addressed her, and as her brother-in-law, he should address her the same way, which also showed their relationship.

Lin Yi was trying to subtly remind Ling Lin to recognize the true nature of their relationship.

You may call me brother-in-law, but you should also treat me as brother-in-law in your heart.

Linglin felt she had to confront him as soon as possible. Yesterday he cornered her against the wall, today he called her Lin'er, who knows what he'll do tomorrow!

However, when the words were on the tip of her tongue, she didn't know how to start. After hesitating for a long time, she finally found a topic and said, "Brother-in-law, did you just learn a new sword technique? It looks very impressive."

Lin Yi: "..."

What does she mean by this? Is she expressing admiration for me?

"Not particularly impressive, just at the level of an ordinary person."

In terms of swordsmanship alone, it is indeed at an ordinary level, but if Lin Yi were to use it, cutting down gods would be as easy as cutting melons and vegetables.

Lin Yi tried to be humble, but Ling Lin said objectively, "To be able to comprehend sword techniques that are close to those of immortals and gods with a mortal body is already very impressive."

Even the immortals I know rarely manage to do this.

Oh no, she's already idolizing me.

Lin Yi was under a lot of pressure, so at this moment, he could only say in a joking tone, "I know I'm very capable, but please don't admire me too much, or I'll become arrogant."

Ling Lin: "..."

She realized that she might be starting to admire Lin Yi a little. Would he misunderstand?

"that……"

Linglin felt it was better to just lay it all out directly.

For example, he could directly say that he only sees Lin Yi as an older brother...

But when the words were about to come out, she chickened out.

Yan Qingqiu, who was secretly watching from the side, was getting anxious.

What are you two doing here?!

Hadn't she already created a flirtatious atmosphere?

It's so awkward, all this dragging on and on, it's so annoying.

But Yan Qingqiu was worried that if he left, he would miss the exciting event, so he could only endure it.

Finally, Linglin showed signs of speaking.

However, Yan Qingqiu's excitement lasted only a few seconds before she chickened out again.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I'm just worried about Sister Xia. Now that Mount Tai has encountered such a change, I'm afraid she won't be able to handle it alone."

This was a lie that Ling Lin made up in a moment of panic. Although she was worried about Bi Xia, she still put Ling Yi first and had no intention of going back to help Bi Xia.

But now that things have come to this point, it wouldn't be appropriate not to say I want to go back.

Lin Yi thought for a moment and said, "If you want to go back and help, that's fine, as long as you come and keep your sister company tonight."

Lin Yi is also stationed at the palace during the day, so there shouldn't be any major problems.

Nighttime is Lin Yi's hunting time, which is why he worries about others raiding his base.

"Of course, it's better if you stay with your sister on the day of the memorial ceremony."

"Ah."

Linglin agreed.

I was originally planning to confront them directly, but now I think this is acceptable.

Anyway, by reducing the time spent with Lin Yi, he probably won't act recklessly next time.

Yan Qingqiu: "..."

You've been holding back for so long, and this is all?

The expected show didn't happen, and they didn't even realize they'd been tricked, which made the fox spirit feel very embarrassed.

"Looks like I'll have to give you some drastic measures."

Yan Qingqiu's stubbornness got the better of him, and he only had one thought in his mind.

Do something!

However, before she could finalize her battle plan, the magic pearl in her pocket suddenly began to vibrate.

This is Qingqiu contacting her.

I don't know what happened, but I'll go back and check first. There's no rush here.
