I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

She had tried very hard to confront her fear, but the suppression at the level of life itself was not so easy to overcome.

It's already remarkable that she can still stand.

This child has a strong will and is a promising talent.

Lin Yi then appeared, explained things to Jiang Linglong, and at the same time released a beam of spiritual light to isolate Jiang Linglong's aura.

Although both are masked figures, Lin Yi gives off a completely different feeling when he appears.

Lin Yi is like the warm sun in winter, making people feel warm.

Jiang Linglong, on the other hand, is like molten lava, which is terrifying.

"From now on, I'll take care of you, okay?"

Lin Yi smiled at Da Ya.

The silver-white mask covered the upper half of his face, but Da Ya could still feel Lin Yi's gentleness.

She nodded obediently, and Lin Yi patted her head to continue comforting her.

Jiang Linglong, who was standing to the side, was very angry, but she held it in.

She was the one who arrived first!

What does this brat mean?!

But Lin Yi...

Jiang Linglong then realized that this guy was quite good at coaxing people.

"I'll give you a new name. From now on, when you become my disciple, you'll take my surname. How about that?"

Daya nodded obediently, and after Lin Yi praised her, she started thinking about it seriously.

He uses the name Lin Yi when he travels, which shows that he has not forgotten his true identity.

Since he genuinely wanted to take on a disciple, he naturally wanted the disciple to take the surname Lin.

When it comes to naming...

After thinking it over carefully, two words popped into Lin Yi's mind—Jin Yu.

This child was not valued by his parents, but in his eyes, he was a genius who could practice the swordsmanship he had developed.

What is a cattail to me is a beautiful jade to me; this name is indeed quite apt.

"From now on, your name will be Jinyu, how about that?"

Da Ya couldn't understand it, but she thought it was impressive; anyway, this name sounded better than Da Ya.

From now on, her name will be Lin Jinyu.

After giving her a name, Lin Yi explained the whole story of what happened last night in detail.

He didn't hide the fact that he had killed someone, so there were some things he needed to say upfront.

The truth may be cruel and hard to accept, but it's better than Lin Jinyu finding out the truth herself and then harboring hatred.

Jiang Linglong was more surprised by Lin Yi's honesty.

Who could possibly know that Lin Yi used the lightning magic last night?

He could have simply kept quiet, which would have prevented any rift between master and apprentice.

Lin Yi said, "What if the little girl has a thorn in her heart?"

Lin Yi said with righteous indignation, "I treat people with sincerity, and they treat me with sincerity in return. There is no need to worry."

Jiang Linglong: "..."

Seriously, are you really that morally upright?

Jiang Linglong herself couldn't do it, but she admired Lin Yi very much.

Little did Lin Yi know that he had actually noticed Jin Yu's special qualities.

Although she was unconscious last night, she may not have been oblivious to what was happening around her.

This child may seem dull and simple-minded, but he is actually very sensitive and perceptive. Moreover, he is so young yet already knows how to put on a layer of disguise, which shows that his life is very difficult.

Rather than lying to her now and turning against her later, it's better to lay the hard truth out upfront.

Fortunately, Lin Jinyu did not disappoint him; she calmly accepted the result.

So, Lin Yi left the realm with Jiang Linglong and Lin Jinyu.

Upon hearing that Jiang Linglong had joined the Jingye Division, Lin Yi found a place for the two of them to stay in the city and settled them in.

During the day, Jiang Linglong would take care of her, and at night Lin Yi would come over to teach her cultivation techniques and how to read and write.

Lin Jinyu studied very diligently, and Lin Yi was very satisfied.

He had two apprentices, one open and one clandestine, both exceptionally intelligent.

The downside is that both girls are extremely withdrawn.

Erni is doing well; with Lingyi by her side, she has become much more cheerful.

But Jiang Linglong herself is also very withdrawn. The two quiet people together might not exchange more than a few words a day.

Lin Yi was also helpless and could only give them more care.

Jiang Linglong was also a key focus. Lin Yi would check on Jiang Linglong's condition every day, and he could feed her blood whenever she had a bloodlust.

But Jiang Linglong didn't have any objections. Perhaps it was because Lin Yi's blood was so effective that one dose could last for a long time, which reassured Lin Yi a lot.

But Jiang Linglong didn't want that. She didn't want to keep sucking Lin Yi's blood. She wanted to become normal again.

So whenever she had nothing to do at the Jingye Division, she would study the information about zombies that Lin Yi had given her.

Days passed by, and the three of them gradually got used to it.

Sometimes Jiang Linglong felt like they were a family of three.

My husband is very busy and often comes home very late, but he is a loving father and a gentle husband.

"Hiss! What am I thinking?"

Jiang Linglong suddenly started banging her head against the wall. She was feeling ashamed and wanted to hit her head to clear her head, since it wouldn't break her anyway.

Her face flushed red because, in that moment of distraction, she had imagined Lin Yi speaking to her in a gentle tone…

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Jiang Linglong, like a groundhog, covered her face and screamed in a low voice.

Clearly, she knew there were people at home, so she restrained herself a little, but not much.

Lin Jinyu was immediately terrified.

Judging from my sister's appearance, she seems to be in the kind of near-madness that Master described.

Lin Jinyu dared not linger and quickly used the method left by Lin Yi to send an urgent message.

At this time, Lin Yi was busy setting up a disaster relief team to deal with various natural disasters that might occur in the future.

The day for the Nuwa Temple worship ceremony was drawing ever closer, and he had many things to deal with.

But at that moment, something in his arms suddenly became burning hot.

Lin Yi was immediately startled.

This was an emergency communication token she left for Lin Jinyu. The token getting hot meant that Lin Jinyu was calling for help.

It was probably Jiang Linglong who had gotten into trouble. Lin Yi hurriedly dismissed everyone. He wanted to leave immediately, but then he remembered that it was daytime, Ling Lin had gone to Taishan Prefecture to help out, and Ling Yi had no one to protect her.

We must leave the Demon-Slaying Sword behind!

With the Demon-Slaying Sword by his side and in the capital, Lingyi should be safe. Even if she is, the Demon-Slaying Sword should be able to sustain him until he returns.

No matter what, protecting his wife is the most important thing, and the importance of everyone else naturally has to come second.

But Lin Yi didn't expect that this action would arouse Ling Yi's suspicion.

When she practiced swordsmanship, she would hold the Demon-Slaying Sword in her arms. Such strange behavior naturally attracted Erni's attention.

Having spent a lot of time with Lingyi, Erni has become much more lively and cheerful. Now that her master's wife is feeling down, she naturally wants to take care of her.

"Sister, what happened?"

Lingyi hesitated for a moment, but seeing Erni's concerned eyes, she couldn't help but tell the truth: "Your master... he might be seeing someone else."

Lingyi stammered out her words, tears welling up in her eyes before she could finish.

"what?"

Erni was shocked and said, "No way, maybe you've misunderstood? Master wouldn't do that, would he?"

Erni's words made some sense, but Lingyi, reflecting on Lin Yi's behavior during this period, still sensed something was amiss.

Moreover, the reason I gave her the demon-slaying sword earlier was probably because I wanted to sneak out on my own.

He used to only sneak out at night, but now he's going out during the day too. It must be because of another woman!

This is Lingyi's intuition as a woman.

Erni, of course, still comforted her, saying, "Sister, don't be afraid. Master cares about you the most. Don't be sad. Wait for Master to come back and ask him what happened."

Perhaps things aren't as you think. Didn't Master refuse to even take a concubine?

This also reminded Lingyi.

That makes sense. Logically speaking, since she didn't refuse Lin Yi's request to take a concubine, there's no reason for Lin Yi to secretly keep one outside.

"That's true, then let's wait."

"Ah."

Erni smiled, but secretly hoped that Lingyi's worries were true.

People's joys and sorrows are not shared. While Lingyi was heartbroken because Lin Yi was suspected of having an affair, Erni was somewhat hopeful.

If Master is always devoted to Lingyi and cannot tolerate anyone else, then where would she get her chance?

Meanwhile, Lin Yi quickly tidied himself up, put on a mask, and slipped out. He arrived in Xining City at lightning speed, only to find that Jiang Linglong was safe and sound.

"How are you? Jinyu said you were showing signs of losing control. Are you feeling better now?"
