I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Please also tell her that although we cannot meet in this life, there will be a next life. Tell her to cultivate herself well, and that we will meet again someday.

Hearing Lin Yi's sweet words to Ling Yi, Yan Qingqiu felt no jealousy. She solemnly replied, "I will."

"Alright, let's begin!"

Lin Yi handed the Demon-Slaying Sword to Yan Qingqiu.

The Demon-Slaying Sword possessed a spirit, and she had already realized what was about to happen, so she trembled violently, unwilling to leave her master, and even more unwilling for someone else to use her to devour her master.

"Listen to me, Demon Slayer, be good, and we'll meet again someday."

The Demon-Slaying Sword continued to emit a hum of refusal; she was just a child, lacking wisdom and unable to reason.

"Since we can't reason with you, then we have no choice but to seal you away."

Lin Yi made his decision and would not let a sword spirit change his mind.

He was also reluctant to erase the sword spirit that slayed the demon, after all, it had been with him for many days and nights.

The Demon-Slaying Sword struggled violently, but Lin Yi cut his own hand and used his blood to inscribe a sealing talisman on it.

"The day the sword spirit awakens will be the day I return."

Lin Yi handed the now-quiet Demon-Slaying Sword to Yan Qingqiu.

Although Yan Qingqiu believed he would return, his hand still trembled slightly as he took the sword.

Will you really come back?

"Definitely."

Lin Yi said with a smile, "I still prefer your mischievous side. You're beautiful and playful, which fascinates me."

So, in these final moments, let me see you at your most beautiful.

Upon hearing this, Yan Qingqiu took a deep breath. She held the sword to Lin Yi's chest, but lacked the courage to plunge it in.

Seeing this, Lin Yi did not move.

He believed that Yan Qingqiu would make the right choice...

Chapter 713 Passing Through the Heavenly Gate

Lin Yi's memories have come to an end.

The image finally focused on Yan Qingqiu's hand, the sword in her hand piercing Lin Yi's chest.

At that very moment, the dream shattered completely.

Lin Yi had not yet woken up. Yan Qingqiu closed her eyes, as if trying to recall the feelings she had when she stabbed him with her sword.

Only Zero and Zero-One looked completely bewildered.

Is this how it ended?

They had heard many versions of the answer before, but they never imagined the truth would be so outrageous.

People used to have different perspectives and opinions, but the results were similar. Now, with Lin Yi's first-person perspective, even the results are different.

Zero One asked in confusion, "If Lin Yi died at your hands long ago, then who was the person who went to fight the Immortal Realm and caused a great disturbance in the Underworld afterward?"

Could it be that Bixia lied to us?

Zero One is still asking, but Zero Zero already has the answer.

When different people tell the same story, and their accounts contradict each other, it doesn't necessarily mean that someone is lying; rather, it means that each person has a different perspective on the story.

"It's you."

Lingling said with certainty.

In fact, she had already found the answer in that memory.

Yan Qingqiu also disguised himself as Lin Yi and served as king for three years without being discovered.

She can create clones, uses illusion magic, has extensive experience in disguise, and possesses all of Lin Yi's tokens, enough to deceive everyone.

Seeing that Lingling had already guessed, Yan Qingqiu also laughed and said, "You are indeed much smarter than your sister, both in your past lives."

Zero One: "..."

She sensed Yan Qingqiu's malice towards her. Hmph, she was just a vixen jealous of her position as the empress.

Having seen Lin Yi's memories, Zero One has now risen to prominence.

She was Lin Yi's official wife, and they had a passionate and unwavering love affair.

Seeing that Lin Yi was still thinking of her before he died, she burst into tears, and her eyes are still brimming with tears!

Unfortunately, Lin Yi's memory ends here.

What happened next, and how did she get out of that predicament?

She only saw that she had been cultivating all those years, but her cultivation speed was not fast, and she didn't know when she would be able to break through the trap.

Could it be that the Queen Mother of the West and the King Father of the East descended to the mortal realm to save her back then?

Lin Yi's dream is not just a dream, but the memories and karmic consequences that he has severed by escaping his shell.

Normally, people cannot see things outside their own perspective in their dreams, but Lin Yi's dream allows him to have a God's-eye view.

At the same time, they could also see things that Lin Yi was unaware of through their dreams.

To be honest, seeing Lin Yi and Bixia dating made Lingyi feel quite envious.

After all, Bixia arrived first.

Moreover, neither of them had forgotten the other. Although they didn't say it explicitly, they both guessed that the other hadn't forgotten.

Finally, they had their only child together.

Zero One was also very dissatisfied.

It was clearly Lin Yi who went to the Goddess Nuwa to ask for this child for her, but Bixia gave birth to the child instead.

I'm so angry!

It felt like my best friend had stolen something from me.

The root of all this lies with his younger sister.

Why are you being so dramatic!

You refused to do things for me at first, and later you secretly fell in love with Lin Yi, but you didn't get any benefits in return.

If you had agreed earlier, wouldn't the benefits have stayed within the family?

Zero Zero: "..."

She understood her sister's complaint and felt quite embarrassed.

He quickly changed the subject and said to Yan Qingqiu, "You helped Lin Yi shed his skin, so you should have attained enlightenment by now. Why are you still in the mortal realm?"

Also, were you really dead back then?

Yan Qingqiu was surprised that Lingling would ask this question; she was indeed perceptive.

In comparison, Zero One is an idiot.

After reading Lin Yi's memories, Lingyi felt that Yan Qingqiu must be extremely powerful to become the final victor. Only Lingyi had the answer so quickly.

Yan Qingqiu also died at that time.

"How did you guess that?"

"Assuming what others say is true, and the people in the underworld really helped Lin Yi cross the cycle of reincarnation, then it means that there really is such a person."

Lin Yi has already shed his physical form. The ability to shed one's physical form eliminates the need for reincarnation in the underworld. The only one who could possibly be sent to reincarnation by the people of the underworld is you.

Lingling arrived at this conclusion based on the premise that none of the stories she had heard before were lies.

Only in this way can we get the correct answer.

"That's right, I did die back then."

Yan Qingqiu looked up, trying to suppress the surging emotions within him. But seeing Lin Yi's memories end, the past kept replaying in his mind.

"I understood when the sword was still half an inch away from Lin Yi's heart."

The key to overcoming this emotional entanglement lies not in whether Lin Yi lives or dies, but in whether I can let go of my feelings.

That was my tribulation, and his tribulation too.

That is a test, a test of a person's heart: whether enlightenment or emotion is more important.

It's a test, but also a way for people to understand their own hearts.

Yan Qingqiu understood this when he killed Lin Yi.

If she attains enlightenment, even if she lives for thousands or tens of thousands of years, what difference would there be between her and the clay statues of gods in temples?

Lifespan is infinite, but without emotion, it is ultimately nothing more than a cold stone.

In the end, Yan Qingqiu did not achieve enlightenment. He only fulfilled Lin Yi's last wish and was reincarnated as a fox, where he continued his cultivation until now.

Thanks to the help of the six-tailed fox, she did not lose her memories and was able to quickly cultivate from a little fox into the number one fox clan.

So, she actually owed Six-Tails quite a lot back then, but while she benefited from it, she was also bullied terribly.

This is why she secretly helps Xiao Se and guides her toward her own destiny, but also teaches her a lesson from time to time.

After listening to Yan Qingqiu's story, Lingyi was secretly alarmed.

Be careful of this fox. Lin Yi is a man of great loyalty and affection. If he knew that this fox had remembered him for thousands of years, he would probably be so moved that he would not be able to see anyone else.

Just as she was worrying, Lin Yi made a move.

He felt like he had a very long dream, so much so that when he woke up he was still a little confused and couldn't tell where he was for a moment.

What's unusual is that the three wives in front of him still look exactly the same as before.

"are you OK?"

Lingyi helped Lin Yi up and asked him with concern. Lin Yi shook his head and slowly adjusted his thoughts.

After sorting through the sudden flood of memories in his mind, he picked up Zero One and examined her carefully for a long time.
