New and dark light years

Chapter 496 Shall we secretly have a baby?
"I'll take my younger sister back to see my eldest sister first," Liu Shen said hurriedly to Li Lin. "She definitely has a way to cure my third sister."

Li Lin nodded.

With Li Lin's permission, Liu Shen immediately picked up her younger sister and flew away.

The faint echo of Liu Chi's weak voice lingered in the air: "Li Lin, you must be careful too..."

Li Lin naturally heard it, he smiled, and then looked around.

After the array on the ceiling was broken, the temperature in the area began to gradually warm up, but it would still take some time before it was completely thawed.

If those frozen banshee corpses are allowed to rot, they might cause something like a corpse miasma.

This is not a joke; it is highly likely to happen.

After all, these can all be considered strange creatures or non-human beings. Moreover, they died tragically, and their corpses are still covered with a strong sense of resentment. If these problems are not resolved, and with the corpse miasma and rotting flesh as a breeding ground, who knows what kind of evil things will be nurtured? It's hard to say.

Therefore, the best course of action is to 'dispose' of these corpses.

Li Lin originally intended to drag the corpses out of the cave one by one, then pile them up with dry branches and leaves and burn them.

But he worried that the body left outside would be 'stolen' when he moved it.

After all, it's quite normal for wild animals or people to occasionally pass by.

Humans might not do anything to these corpses, but it's hard to say what wild animals might do.

What will happen to the wild beasts after they eat the corpses of resentful monsters? Will they cause harm to the surrounding villages and counties? These are all things that need to be considered.

After thinking for a while, Li Lin decided to work hard and bring back dry branches from outside. It took him a whole day to collect enough dry branches.

They then threw all the corpses onto firewood and dead leaves.

ignite.

A strong stench of corpses wafted out.

Li Lin went outside the cave.

The fire burned for nearly six hours, and Li Lin only went inside after almost no black smoke was coming out of the cave.

Then, he witnessed a scene that left him feeling helpless.

Those corpses... were just a little blackened, they weren't burned to ashes.

Li Lin walked up, wiped it with his hand, and found that the black ash on the outer skin was just left by firewood. After wiping it, the grayish-white skin reappeared.

In other words, ordinary fire has no effect on the bodies of these female demons.

However, the resentment on these female demon corpses had almost completely disappeared.

The idea that raging fire can ward off evil spirits likely has some basis.

Just as Li Lin was feeling troubled, he suddenly heard footsteps outside the cave.

He instinctively stomped out the tinder in his hand, squatted down, and then moved to a corner to hide.

This set of movements is incredibly smooth.

The footsteps coming from outside were very light and slow, as if they were hesitant.

Then, in the darkness, it seemed as if a figure was slowly walking towards them.

Li Lin found it strange; he had placed a small paper figure outside, but it hadn't reacted at all.

Then...the shadowy figure was heard calling out softly.

"Li Lin, are you there?"

The voice was extremely familiar; it was Liu Shen.

Li Lin emerged from stealth mode and said, "I'm here."

"what!"

Liu Shen screamed, then saw the tinderbox Li Lin had lit, and her expression returned to normal after her initial fear.

Then she patted her chest and said angrily, "You scared me."

"You yourself are a monster, and you're afraid too?"

"This place is eerie. I get scared as soon as I come here, and I don't know why."

Li Lin smiled and asked, "Why are you back again?"

“My older sister asked me to come over. She said she was worried because she hadn’t seen you come back, so she asked me to come and check on you.”

Li Lin was secretly pleased; the Tree Fairy Goddess still cared about him.

He pointed to the corpses of the female demons in front of him and said, "I wanted to dispose of these corpses, but... I couldn't burn them."

"Haha, these are all demonic forms, how could mortal fire possibly burn them?" Liu Shen said smugly. "I'll help you."

"How will you solve this?"

"I'll just eat them all," Liu Shen laughed. "Living demons can't be eaten, but dead ones can. Besides, you'll burn away their resentment, making them perfect for eating."

"Eat!" Li Lin seemed a little surprised.

At that moment, she opened her lips and gently inhaled.

Then the female demon corpse on the ground turned into streams of light and disappeared into her mouth.

She then smacked her lips lightly and said, "The taste is very average, far inferior to your vital energy."

Li Lin's eyes widened: "What kind of magic is this?!"

"This is my supernatural power," Liu Shen laughed. "Eldest sister and third sister also have their own supernatural powers. I can eat anything."

"And what about them?"

"My eldest sister had several supernatural abilities, but I don't remember the specifics. I only remember that she had one ability that could boil stones."

"Boiling stones?"

"It's about boiling stones until they're incredibly beautiful, but I've forgotten the specific purpose."

Li Lin then asked, "What about Liu Chi?"

"It seems to be something like dragon energy, but I don't really understand it."

Li Lin raised an eyebrow, realizing that these three sisters were no ordinary people.

However, he was puzzled as to what had happened hundreds of years ago that caused such powerful people as them to lose their memories.

Li Lin stopped thinking about things he couldn't understand and said, "Then I'll go back too. How is Liu Chi doing?"

“Her injuries were too severe and lasted too long, and there’s no way to fully heal her in a short time.” Liu Shen’s voice was somewhat low, but then she smiled and said, “But it doesn’t matter. Eldest sister said that once you turn Third Sister into a True Lord, and she has incense offerings, her recovery speed will be much faster. In just thirty or forty years, she will be back to normal.”

Will it take thirty or forty years?

Li Lin couldn't help but marvel at how long these True Lords' lifespans were.

They don't need much cultivation; they are born with the ability to live a long and healthy life.

"Since you're alright, I'll head back now." Liu Shen arrived at the cave entrance. "My elder sister must also be hoping I can get back quickly and let her know I'm safe."

"Let's go first." Li Lin nodded to her.

Liu Shen flew into the air, then, as if remembering something, flew down again. She said excitedly, "Oh, right, I suddenly thought of something."

"whats the matter?"

Li Lin was very curious about what strange ideas she had.

"Let's mate and have a few children. This place is far from Yulin County, so my older sister won't be able to feel it."

Li Lin's eyes widened in shock.

At this moment, Liu Shen was very excited: "After we secretly mate here, we won't tell anyone. Even if my older sister is angry after I give birth, she can't kill me! Don't you think my idea is smart?"

Oh...that's pretty smart.

Li Lin sighed: "Your older sister won't kill you, but she'll probably kill me."

"No way, she spoils you so much." Liu Shen snorted, a little jealous, and said, "She used to be so gentle with me, she couldn't bear to scold me. But whenever it comes to you, she beats me up."

“It’s mainly because your idea is too outrageous.” Liu Shen lifted her skirt and said, “Come on or not? After I have children, I’ll give you half to raise. They can listen to you, help you with chores, and even patrol the territory.”

Now, everything that can be seen and everything that can't be seen are exposed.

Li Lin covered her face: "A girl shouldn't do this."

"Tch, whatever, you just don't want to have kids with me, hmph."

Liu Shen put down her skirt and flew away unhappily.

Li Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, Liu Shen is not without charm; in fact, she is quite beautiful and has a wild quality to her.

However, some things cannot be done carelessly.

Especially considering that Liu Shen has not yet truly 'enlightened'.

On the contrary, the youngest Liu Chi seems to already be aware of this.

Li Lin shook his head, and just as he was about to leave, his expression suddenly hardened.

The little paper figure that remained in the cave sent him a message saying "Something is coming out."

He immediately crouched down to the side and entered stealth mode.

Not long after, a 'succubus' that walked on two arms and two legs poked its head out of the cave.

Her face was covered with insect shells.

Because his clothes had been burned off, he was completely naked when he crawled on his hands and feet, which looked very eerie.

When did it disappear from my sight and hide away?
Li Lin remembered that this female demon was also one of the 'members' who were suspended by iron chains.

He took the golden sword from his storage ring and then stealthily moved behind the insect.

The insect explored its surroundings, and once it sensed that no one was around, it began to dance and gesticulate wildly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Lin slashed down with his sword.

A golden light flashed, and the insect demon was split in two from the middle of its back.

There was no blood flowing out, only a strong stench.

Then a large, white, fat worm the size of a fist wriggled out of the demon's body.

Just as Li Lin was about to stab it to death, the thing suddenly screamed, "Li Lin, how dare you ruin my plans!"

"Oh, so it's the so-called Gu Immortal." Li Lin sneered, "Who ruined it is doing me a favor. I was the one who discovered this thing first, so it's normal for me to destroy it."

"Do you know the value of a demon body? These are all from ancient demon races."

Li Lin raised an eyebrow slightly: "You guys are pretty quick. I had just brought these things out when you came over by the smell."

“Li Lin, you are quite capable.” The fat, white worm raised its upper body, its two black eyes, each the size of a soybean, darting around. “Don’t you really want to submit to us? You should know that we have the ability to turn living things into spiritual energy. What you cultivators lack most is spiritual energy. With a large amount of spiritual energy, your path to immortality will be much smoother.”

Li Lin snorted, said no more, and thrust his sword down.

The white worm hissed in agony, then stopped moving after a while.

Li Lin then gathered some firewood from nearby, intending to burn the insects.

It turned out that the demonic body, which had been possessed by insects, could actually be burned with ordinary fire.

Li Lin returned to Xinxing County, found his personal guards, and then went back to Yulin County with them.

When Li Lin returned home, he saw Liu Chi floating in mid-air, also with her eyes closed, standing side by side with the true form of the Tree Fairy.

Because a protective array was set up in the house, Huang Qing and the others could also see Liu Chi's appearance.

Upon seeing Li Lin return, Huang Qing came down to greet him, patted off non-existent dust from Li Lin's clothes, straightened them, and then asked, "Is that the Tree Fairy Goddess's third sister up there...?"

Speaking of Chen, Huang Qing lowered his voice and beckoned with his little finger.

This gesture means "lover" or "concubine".

Li Lin shook his head.

Huang Qing breathed a sigh of relief: "Then everything is fine."

She didn't object to Li Lin taking a concubine, but she would feel a lot of pressure if he went out and came back with a beauty that looked like a fairy.

At this moment, the image of the Tree Fairy suddenly appeared beside Li Lin and said, "Third Sister, heal your injuries."

Huang Qing bowed and paid his respects to the Tree Fairy Goddess.

Li Lin nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

The Anzhai Formation can gather a certain amount of spiritual energy, and the Tree Fairy Goddess was able to manifest her true form under these circumstances, which should be helpful for Liu Chi's injuries.

"And the altar." The Tree Fairy Goddess remained as sparing with her words as ever.

Li Lin nodded again.

Then the image of the Tree Fairy Goddess disappeared.

After returning home, Li Lin enjoyed a few more comfortable days.

Then, in the White Tiger Hall of the administrative office, Li Lin met Zeng Hongluo, who had been "escorted" back, and Gu Yunpeng.

Gu Yunpeng was an elder, and quite old, but when he saw Li Lin, he knelt down on one knee without hesitation, clasped his hands, and said, "This humble subject greets Your Excellency."

Having said that, he bowed.

Zeng Honglu looked at Li Lin with a resentful gaze and gave a slight bow.

Beside them was An Xin.

Li Lin ignored the two men and instead smiled at An Xin, saying, "You did a great job in this ambush, ensuring that not a single enemy escaped."

"Thanks to the great sir's brilliant strategy, knowing that they would pass through Peiyang County and even sending a large army to ambush them, otherwise it would have been impossible for us to succeed with just our small force."

Li Lin waved his hand: "This matter is also thanks to Young Hero Chu of Zhaixing Tower."

"My lord, Lord Chu asked me to convey a message that he hopes you can teach him the cultivation breathing technique."

"no problem."

Li Lin nodded. Just for the fact that Zhaixinglou took the initiative to help him block the "army" of the Zhuxian Society, he had to repay this favor.

"Master Chu said that he would personally visit in a month or two."

"Yes, thank you for your help." Li Lin smiled and said, "I have already arranged the rewards for this event. In a few days, someone will personally deliver them to Tianyi Sect. At that time, I would appreciate it if Brother An could help distribute them according to the merits."

"By me?"

"This is something that the deputy leader of the Seeking Immortals Society must do."

"Alright." An Xin smiled helplessly.

He didn't really like these things, but since Li Lin had asked him to, he naturally had to do them.

After finishing their business, Li Lin's gaze finally fell on Gu Yunpeng.

"Elder Gu, are you truly willing to submit to our Immortal Seeking Society?"

"Yes."

Li Lin fell into thought. Logically speaking, people who come to join him halfway through life are not very trustworthy.

He didn't even believe Zeng Hongluo, let alone Gu Yunpeng.

But... we can't just kill people indiscriminately.

Although the Zhuxian Society was wiped out, An Xin and the other members of the Seeking Immortals Society knew that this person had come to join them. If they were killed like this, people's hearts were unpredictable, and what others would think and feel would be beyond Li Lin's control.

Gu Yunpeng waited anxiously for the 'verdict'.

After a long while, Li Lin asked, "Elder Gu, would you be willing to become a constable?"

Gu Yunpeng was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head and said with some excitement, "This humble subject couldn't ask for more."
