Chapter 477 Half of them are possessed by demons
After ending the call with Ji Wantang, Lin Zhao let Lin Yi in and told him about her situation.

"You really don't want to continue the investigation?"

"With Ji Wantang on the Ancestral Spirit Continent, I really don't need to worry about that anymore."

Lin Yi had no liking for this woman who had taken away his younger sister's fortune since childhood: "You trust her that much?"

“She has things to do, and I have things to accomplish, so she won’t associate with demons or evil thoughts from other worlds, although I don’t know what Ji Wantang is planning to do.”

Hearing Lin Zhao say this, Lin Yi didn't dwell on Ji Wantang any longer. After thinking for a while, he said, "I'll leave Cui Qingwan to you."

Lin Zhao rested her chin on her hand and looked at him: "Second Brother, won't you try again?"

Lin Yi untied a wine gourd from his waist and laughed, "Strive for what? Do you think Second Brother is the kind of person who clings on relentlessly?"

Lin Zhao waved his hand and quickly said, "No, that won't happen. What kind of person is my second brother? He's a womanizer who can walk through a garden of flowers without getting a single petal on him. He would never hang himself on one tree."

Lin Yi took a swig of wine, raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Of course."

Lin Zhao tentatively said, "I told Miss Cui that once she comes out, I will take her to the sect in my Ancestral Phoenix Plane to become her disciple."

Lin Yi paused for a moment, then nodded: "Consider it giving your second brother some face by finding Cui Qingwan a more capable master. Consider it a repayment for the care she gave your second brother in the past, and let's call it even."

Lin Zhao exclaimed, "Good! Second brother is indeed impressive, but why didn't you understand Miss Cui's hints to you back then?"

Lin Yi paused in his drinking, then laughed and said, "I was stupid back then."

Lin Zhao's gaze fixed on Lin Yi's face: "Second brother, you're not stupid, it's just that because of Miss Cui's existence, you don't want to think about the more terrifying possibilities that Panlong Tower might have, right?"

Lin Zhao had just revealed Lin Yi's hidden thoughts, and Lin Yi fell silent.

Inside the Panlong Pagoda, it seemed that Cui Qingwan was pestering him, but without Lin Yi's tacit approval, why would Cui Qingwan keep pestering him?

He wanted to avenge his brother and also wanted to give Cui Qingwan a better future.

He just hadn't expected things to turn out this way; he just hadn't expected that the girl to be even smarter and more resilient than he thought.

"Second brother, you've always been very smart. Cui Qingwan chose you because she trusts your intelligence."

While observing Lin Yi's changing expression, he said, "Second Brother, you've been able to travel among the various dynasties under different identities to accumulate your cultivation. You can't be unaware of certain things."

Lin Yi took another swig of wine. He did have some suspicions, but he never thought too much about it in front of Cui Qingwan.

Lin Yi chuckled: "Little sister, you probably haven't really had any romantic feelings for anyone, have you? When you're with that person, you don't think about anything; you believe whatever she says."

Lin Zhao silently rested her chin on her hand, reflecting on her not-so-many romantic history. She felt that she had experienced romantic love, but many things were more important than that relationship, which made her unable to understand this statement.

Lin Yi's words opened up a new world for her.

Lin Zhao recalled the cold, intellectual look in Cui Qingwan's eyes, sighed, and stopped thinking about it.

Lin Yi, however, was still a little worried. While comforting her, he asked, "Let's not talk about that. Your second brother is prepared to sit among the flowers when he's sober and sleep among them when he's drunk. But what about you? What about the upcoming Tower Master election? The Second Elder gave you pills, which clearly means he suspects you. How are you going to handle that?"

Lin Zhao waved his hand, indicating that the matter was easily resolved: "Just kill him."

Her hostility towards the demon race will not disappear just because she discovers that demonic energy can be transformed into spiritual energy under the influence of ancestral spirit energy.

Desire is a cannibalistic demon, and it is an irreconcilable enemy of cultivators.

If the two elders are both at the Fusion Stage and have fallen into demonic possession, then they would be even more threatening. Lin Yi was about to say that the two elders were experts at the Fusion Stage when he remembered Lin Zhao's terrifying strength—enough to make even a Nascent Soul cultivator fearless against a Fusion Stage cultivator—so he immediately stopped talking.

"Second Brother, you can rest here. As for Miss Cui, I can't bring her in until things are completely resolved, because the Second Elder has placed a restriction on her. I could indeed directly sever the restriction, but considering the risk of alerting her, I'll pass."

Lin Yi asked, "Isn't there a bit of risk involved?"

Lin Zhao looked at her second brother with a half-smile, "Second brother, if I hadn't come, perhaps you would be dead while Miss Cui would still be alive."

Lin Yi: "..."

He felt that the young women these days were a bit too aggressive, so he stopped talking and started drinking.

After leaving the Blue Duck Secret Realm, Lin Zhao found Uncle Feng and spoke to him. Uncle Feng looked at her in surprise.

"Isn't this... a bit risky?"

Lin Zhao raised an eyebrow: "Uncle Feng doesn't want to do it?"

Uncle Feng chuckled, "How could that be?! Of course I'd do something this exciting!"

From Lin Zhao, he learned that the Panlong Tower had been infiltrated by demons. Since cultivators and demons were mortal enemies, he was naturally extremely willing to fight against the demons.

Even though he is an assassin, it doesn't change the fact that a man is a boy until the end. Even though he is now hundreds of years old and his cultivation can no longer be improved, it doesn't change the fact that he has a burning passion to kill the Demon Guard family!

If you install a fragment of the Demon-Revealing Mirror in each assassin's room in the Panlong Tower, wouldn't the task of protecting the Ancestral Dragon Plane fall on your own shoulders?

Seeing Uncle Feng's silly grin, Lin Zhao wondered if entrusting this matter to him was a bit unreliable.

"Perhaps I should find someone else..."

"No, no, no, I'll take care of it! You've come to the right person! Hehe, your Uncle Feng may not be good at much else, but his ability to hide is top-notch. Even Nascent Soul cultivators can't catch your uncle!"

Lin Zhao: "...Then I'll leave it to Uncle Feng."

I have to say, no wonder he can get along so well with Lin Yi.

After Uncle Feng finished packing the fragments, Lin Zhao opened the Heavenly Mirror connected to the fragments and frowned as he saw that almost half of the room had been filled with black shadows.

This number far exceeded Lin Zhao's expectations.

This can no longer be described as a den of demons; it's practically a base camp for creating demons.

Fortunately, although there are many demons, there are not many whose cultivation level exceeds the Nascent Soul stage. It is estimated that all the cultivators who successfully transformed into demons above the Nascent Soul stage have entered the Demon Realm.

It seems they haven't yet developed a method to forcibly transform cultivators into demons and then conceal their demonic characteristics for an extended period.

However, looking at the considerable number of Golden Core stage cultivators, Lin Zhao still felt a heavy weight in his heart.

A cultivator at the Golden Core stage should have a very firm Dao heart, so these cultivators must have become demonic before they even reached the Golden Core stage.

However, not all cultivators were converted. This was probably done to send talent to the Demon Realm without attracting outside attention. After all, if there are a few less assassins, almost no one will notice.

So how can we subtly imprison those demons we can save and kill those we can't?

Cui Qingwan's voice came from the doorway: "Lin Yi, the Third Elder is looking for you."
