I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Lin Yi also asked her about her experiences over the years. Jiang Linglong did not hide anything and told him about how she searched everywhere for a force that could fight against the Shang Dynasty, eventually found Xiqi, disguised herself as an old man, and became a strategist.

Lin Yi shook his head upon hearing this.

He had been searching for Jiang Ziya to kill for years, but he couldn't find him.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ziya turned out to be his friend.

"What a small world."

As Lin Yi was speaking, he suddenly added, "Do all your subordinates listen to you?"

"of course."

"Are they gods? Would they really obey your commands?"

At the beginning of the war, the gods did indeed hide their identities, but after the Heavenly Gate opened, they could no longer conceal them. Afterwards, all sorts of gods fought each other, and no one pretended anymore.

That's why Lin Yi was curious about this.

When a deity is hiding their identity, it's understandable that they would listen to the advice of a mortal strategist. But now that the deity has revealed their identity, why would they still be willing to submit to Jiang Linglong?

Moreover, Lin Yi had seen Jiang Linglong's bone structure, which was similar to that of a deity, but with some more complex patterns.

Otherwise, Lin Yi would not have been so blinded by rage that he almost killed her with his sword as well.

Jiang Linglong hadn't thought of that, and answered honestly, "They all followed orders and didn't overstep any boundaries."

"So, you must be someone important too."

Lin Yi said meaningfully.

Actually, he still had some doubts.

When other deities descend to earth and fight, their merits continue to increase.

However, when Jiang Linglong first appeared on the Demon-Slaying Manual, she was only guilty of a little evil.

Being a zombie is the original sin.

Now, she is guilty of heinous crimes.

This is only the highest level provided by the Demon-Slaying Manual, but it may not be Jiang Linglong's current level.

Lin Yi had just subtly inquired and now knew what Jiang Linglong had been doing lately.

She never killed or drank blood; she only commanded the army to attack the Shang Dynasty.

Everyone else accumulates merit, but she alone accumulates sin.

Lin Yi thought to himself, she's probably been tricked!

But since he could see both the merits and demerits, he couldn't say it directly.

Lin Yi has always kept the secret of the Demon-Slaying Manual to himself.

He will always hide his extraordinary abilities whenever possible.

However, seeing that Jiang Linglong had fallen into the trap, Lin Yi still wanted to give her a word of advice.

"Don't you really notice something's wrong?"

Jiang Linglong knew that Lin Yi was not one to speak without reason. She thought it over carefully and said, "From beginning to end, there was only one god who made me feel something was wrong."

That god claims to be a man of words, whose words are powerful. However, he went to the Heavenly Realm with the Heavenly Emperor Gouchen last time, otherwise he might have died at your hands.

And then there's Gouchen, the Heavenly Emperor. He looked at me strangely, as if there was some malice in his eyes.

Jiang Linglong is aware of evil thoughts, but she is not overly sensitive to them.

She didn't understand where Gouchen Heavenly Emperor's displeasure came from, and she had never offended Gouchen Heavenly Emperor.

Gouchen Heavenly Emperor had never caused her any trouble before, and had even helped her with some minor issues, so she didn't take it too seriously.

She was single-mindedly focused on destroying the Shang Dynasty and never entertained any other thoughts.

Now that Lin Yi has mentioned it, she recalled this and shared it with him.

Lin Yi didn't understand either, but he wrote down the question and prepared to ask the giant snake.

"By the way, what are your plans for the future?"

"I don't know. I originally wanted to take revenge, but now that I think about it, Yanling's words must have been a lie."

Without needing Lin Yi to explain, Jiang Linglong chose to believe him.

That spirit of words was clearly scheming. If she hadn't already returned to the Immortal Realm, Jiang Linglong would have loved to drag her out and interrogate her thoroughly.

Seeing Jiang Linglong's decisiveness, Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh and said, "It seems you still have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. All those years of feeding you were worth it."

Jiang Linglong couldn't help but roll her eyes at him. The way he said it made it sound like she was a pet.

"You know it's been years since you've given me any fresh blood, aren't you afraid I'll suddenly go berserk and bite you?!"

Can you?

"What if I get hungry?"

"Here, you can have it."

Lin Yi stretched out his arm and casually handed it to Jiang Linglong.

With my current defensive capabilities, even if she bites me, she won't be able to break my skin.

But Lin Yi didn't expect that Jiang Linglong would grab his arm and pounce on him.

Just as Lin Yi was about to retaliate, Jiang Linglong's icy lips pressed against his.

Why did you have to bite me here out of so many places on my body?

Lin Yi was stunned on the spot, and for a moment forgot to resist, until he felt a pain in his lip, realizing that he had been bitten and the skin was broken.

"you……"

"I've wanted to kiss you for a long time, I just waited for this opportunity."

Jiang Linglong was very direct. Although she didn't dare to look Lin Yi in the eye, her words were exceptionally brave.

Lin Yi was stunned. I treated you as a friend, but you wanted to kiss me?

"Didn't you say your lover died? So, could I be the one to take their place?"

Lin Yi: "..."

Without any warning, Jiang Linglong launched a full-scale attack. Lin Yi was stunned for a moment before saying, "I also have a concubine."

Jiang Linglong: "..."

sloppy.

There was still a slight awkwardness in the air.

Fortunately, Jiang Linglong reacted quickly, saying decisively, "I'm not going to be a concubine; if I'm going to be one, I'll be the principal wife."

Speaking of this, Jiang Linglong suddenly paused.

She recalled that back then, those people slaughtered the village and exterminated the clan, wasn't it all so that the man in front of her could take a concubine?

She suddenly felt a pang of guilt.

She fell in love with Lin Yi, but how could she face her dead clansmen?

Lin Yi saw her finish speaking with a smile, and then her expression suddenly froze. He could roughly guess what she was thinking.

"What happened back then wasn't your fault."

Such comfort could not ease Jiang Linglong's heavy heart.

Lin Yi wasn't trying to comfort her; he was just thinking of a possibility.

Do you believe in fate?

"?"

Jiang Linglong didn't know why he suddenly brought up fate.

Lin Yi slowly said, "Back then, the one who caused the disaster of the Yuezhi was the son of the Earl of Dongping. At that time, the Earl of Dongping had a very strict family education, and his sons were all virtuous and talented, humble and polite."

Who could have imagined that he would be so cruel to the Yuezhi?

The Earl of Dongping was eager to present me with beautiful women. At that time, I did not have a queen. If you entered the palace and became queen, the Yuezhi would become her people. How could they dare to bully the Yuezhi?

After Lin Yi learned the whole story, he felt that it was very unusual.

The Dongping family was as if they were under a curse; they were completely out of their minds.

Lin Yi only received the news when the battle began and the Yuezhi clan was wiped out.

Before that, he was very well-informed. However, something happened during that time, and his information was cut off for a short period of time. The conflict escalated to an irreconcilable level.

There were too many coincidences involved; Lin Yi no longer believed it was all a coincidence.

He felt something was wrong at the time, but he couldn't figure out what was going on.

If Lin Yi had said these words before his great victory today, Jiang Linglong would have had reason to doubt their veracity.

But Lin Yi now has no reason to lie.

"You mean, fate has driven us to become enemies?"

"Perhaps it wasn't to make us enemies, but simply to plunge you into the abyss."

Perhaps it's not fate, but some arrangement by the forces of existence.

Lin Yi only knew that she was probably from the immortal realm, but he didn't know her true identity.

As Jiang Linglong reflected on her experiences over the past few days, she increasingly agreed with what Lin Yi had said.

She was originally a normal person, but she was inexplicably cursed and almost turned into a blood-sucking monster.

If Lin Yi hadn't come to her aid, she would have already succumbed to her bloodlust.

Lin Yi's words were ambiguous, and she didn't quite understand them.

I racked my brains, but still couldn't come up with a solution.

Lin Yi then laughed and said, "Don't keep thinking about things you can't understand. I'm just reminding you not to get stuck on a rut."

At the same time, it's important to clearly distinguish who your enemies are and who your friends are.
