I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Jiang Linglong: "..."

She never expected that Lin Jinyu would attract Lin Yi's attention.

This put her in an awkward position.

If she says she's fine, how will she explain herself if Lin Yi asks her why Lin Jinyu misunderstood?

In just a second, Jiang Linglong made her decision: to continue acting.

"I feel much better."

Let's just pretend I really went crazy just now!

She's a little crazy; I don't know what she's thinking.

Don't be reckless!

Lin Yi knew that Jiang Linglong might have returned to normal through her own willpower, but that would also be very dangerous.

We escaped danger this time, but what about next time?

"If you feel unwell in the future, don't try to tough it out. Tell me, okay?"

Jiang Linglong: "..."

She fantasized that Lin Yi would speak gently and caringly to her, saying that he would protect her and help her.

But in reality, Lin Yi reprimanded her in a stern tone, yet the concern in his eyes made her heart race.

Ok?

My dead heart suddenly attacked me?

It's confirmed, the heart isn't beating, it's a heartbeat.

Jiang Linglong was completely confused, and her face seemed to be burning up.

Upon seeing this, Lin Yi quickly touched her forehead with the back of his hand.

"It's getting hot; that might be a sign the curse is about to activate. Inhale!"

He knew Jiang Linglong would resist, so he cut himself and brought the knife to Jiang Linglong's lips.

Jiang Linglong: "..."

She's conscious now!

But under pressure from Lin Yi, she drank it anyway.

My body feels warm, and so does my heart.

But at the same time, a feeling of self-loathing also arose.

She didn't want to be a monster, didn't want to drink Lin Yi's blood, and didn't want anyone to be afraid of her if she showed any abnormality.

Perhaps, only by becoming normal can she be with Lin Yi...

"It seems it's time to go back."

These days, Jiang Linglong has been studying the information and analysis that Lin Yi found for her, trying to find the reason why she turned into a monster.

The information Lin Yi gave her was all related to zombies, and some of her characteristics matched the description of zombies.

The body is dead, yet it can move; it needs to drink blood; it dislikes the sun and prefers the shade.

However, her body was very flexible, and apart from being dead, she was no different from a living person.

She resembled a zombie, but she didn't quite seem like a zombie.

Perhaps she is a rather special kind of zombie.

The essence of a zombie is that the body is dead, but the remaining soul remains in the body, so she should meet the criteria.

There are many reasons why the soul may remain in the body.

One possibility is that he harbored too much resentment before his death, and because he couldn't swallow his anger, his soul wouldn't leave his body.

Second, it's possible that the deceased's soul was too powerful, allowing it to remain inside the body after death, eventually turning into a zombie.

The third method involves human intervention, sealing a portion of the three souls and seven spirits within the body, then burying it in a corpse-raising ground and refining it using secret rituals. Controlling a zombie by controlling its soul is an evil practice.

The fourth reason is because of a curse.

Of these four reasons, she ruled out the first two.

She died without harboring any great resentment, and her soul remained in her body voluntarily; she hadn't done anything when she was resurrected.

Jiang Linglong is not yet certain about the third and fourth possibilities, so this is the focus of her investigation going forward.

Whatever the reason, she should go back to her own grave and take a look; the truth must be there!

Chapter 682 Puxin Cat

Jiang Linglong decided to return to the ancestral land of the Yuezhi people and visit her own grave.

She planned to investigate the matter herself, so she didn't tell Lin Yi.

Lin Yi left Xining City and went straight back to the capital.

There were still many things to do in the court, so he hurriedly left to come out and help. Now that Jiang Linglong is safe, he has to go back to work.

Being a king is worse than being a wage earner; I'd never be one again in my next life.

Lin Yi mentally complained as he flew.

Back near the capital, just as he was about to land in the palace, he suddenly spotted two familiar faces in the city.

One is a black amber, and the other is a six-tailed fox.

Lin Yi almost thought he was seeing things.

I checked, and it really is true.

How did they get here?

As Lin Yi pondered quietly, his gaze alerted Liuwei.

She was happily eating candied hawthorns when she suddenly looked up. Judging from the change in her eyes, she had clearly noticed him.

Six-tailed Fox waved cheerfully, its meaning quite clear.

Lin Yi thought that the other party had at least helped him and revealed some very important information to him, so no matter what, he should still give Liuwei some face.

Then, Lin Yi descended from the sky and came to stand in front of the two of them.

Wu Hu moved forward slightly by half a step, and even that half step showed her wariness of Lin Yi.

She was worried that Lin Yi and Liuwei would get too close, so she adopted a defensive stance.

But Liuwei was very enthusiastic towards Lin Yi and took the initiative to ask, "Do you live in the royal capital?"

Lin Yi nodded in agreement, and Liuwei's eyes lit up immediately. "Then you must know what good food and fun things there are in the capital?"

Lin Yi knew this, of course. He was the one who oversaw the functional zoning of the capital, and the various food and entertainment projects in the capital were developed when he wasn't so busy.

No one understands the capital better than him.

Liuwei's question was quite obvious, but before Lin Yi could answer, Wu Hu interrupted, "Your Highness, don't forget, we came out to search for the remnants of the Demon Clan!"

If it were someone else, Wu Hu wouldn't have stopped her.

The two had been in the human world for some time now, and the Six-Tails hadn't done anything productive, just played around, and Utsugata hadn't said anything to her.

But Lin Yi is not an option.

Last time, Liuwei pointed out Lin Yi's special quality: his soul was pure and he had not entered the cycle of reincarnation.

Liuwei did not realize the seriousness of the problem; she did not think carefully about what it meant to be born without entering the cycle of reincarnation.

But as a guardian, Wu Hu cannot afford to be careless.

She wasn't targeting Lin Yi, but rather fearing that Lin Yi would bring disaster.

Beyond the control of reincarnation, meaning they don't know Lin Yi's past, nor can they control Lin Yi's future.

That's fine.

What's frightening is that such a person must be carrying a huge karmic burden, otherwise, why would he be the one who doesn't enter the cycle of reincarnation?

Wu Hu had no intention of being Lin Yi's enemy; keeping her distance was the best course of action. Why would she allow Liuwei to become friends with Lin Yi?

The interruption at this moment was both to stop Liuwei and to give Lin Yi a hint.

Lin Yi wasn't tactless; the other party treated him like a monster. Although he was somewhat annoyed, he didn't bother arguing with Wu Hu, considering their previous joint efforts in intercepting the Demon Lord.

Six-Tailed Fox was quite unhappy and said, "It's true that we came to hunt down demons, but the world is so vast, where can we find them if we deliberately look for them?"

But I have a feeling that I'll definitely meet him if I let things take their course, so why not just have fun?

Wu Hu: "..."

Liuwei's words made so much sense that she couldn't refute them.

In fact, before meeting Lin Yi, she didn't stop Liuwei from playing around.

Although they haven't gained anything in the past few days.

Lin Yi's eyes lit up when he heard this.

He originally intended to follow Wu Hu's wishes and not deal with them, but when the demon race was mentioned, he had to take it seriously.

"If you encounter demons, do you have a way to completely annihilate them?"

Liuwei shook his head and said, "I can't kill them either, but I can seal or suppress them. It's just a pity that I don't know when I'll be able to find them."

Lin Yi: "..."

What a coincidence!

He could find those demon ancestors, but he couldn't truly restrain them.

These past few days, Lin Yi has been causing trouble for the Demon Ancestor every night.

With the help of the Demon-Slaying Manual, Lin Yi had already locked onto several Demon Ancestors; all that was left was to chase after them.

But they were all possessing other people's bodies. When Lin Yi killed the host, they ran away.
