After the destruction of the Immortal Realm, I took in the fallen fairy.

When Lin Heng heard Yun Yue say that she was the owner of the Mijin Pavilion, he thought it would be a good opportunity to subtly inquire about the Tide-Calling Seal from her.

However, when he heard Yun Yue mention her other identity in the immortal realm, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Mu Tinglan and Yun Qinghe standing in front of a shop on the street.

"You mean, you're the sect leader of the Yunling Sect?"

If I'm not mistaken, Yun Yue only approached him because she saw Yun Qinghe and Mu Tinglan.

After all, his two immortal servants were both core disciples of the Yunling Sect.

Yun Qinghe, in particular, even received personal instruction from her.

No wonder it has an 85% purity of spiritual roots...

"Yes, I noticed you the moment you entered the Misty Pavilion. And after you left, I personally followed you."

Yun Yue nodded slightly, making no attempt to conceal her whereabouts.

She subtly revealed that she knew Lin Heng had seen through the truth of the Fairy Yuan industry chain.

You should know that as the proprietress of Mijin Pavilion, she is the most important link in the Xianyuan industry chain.

Surprisingly, she showed no hostility towards Lin Heng; instead, she spoke of him in such a nonchalant manner.

Logically speaking, if this kind of thing is discovered, killing the witness to cover it up would be the bare minimum...

Lin Heng easily guessed the reason: "It seems I'm only able to stand here and talk to you properly because of your two disciples?"

Not entirely.

Yun Yue shook her head.

Having followed for so long, she naturally saw the reactions of her two disciples beside Lin Heng.

But there was another reason why she decided to come and meet Lin Heng in person.

Previously, she clearly saw that whether it was Mu Tinglan or Yun Qinghe, they were no different from those obedient and compliant fairy servants when they were by Lin Heng's side.

She wasn't surprised by Mu Tinglan.

After all, back in the Yunling Sect, Yun Yue knew that Mu Tinglan could get along well with even those older fairies who acted like senior sisters.

But Yun Qinghe is different.

Because that girl, she watched her grow up.

Yun Qinghe has never been good at socializing since she was a child. Even her fellow disciples rarely tolerated her inherent arrogance.

Only Mu Tinglan, whose water spirit root purity is high enough, can maintain a good relationship with her.

So that's the problem.

A slave master who can make Yun Qinghe submit must be no ordinary person.

Because she knew.

Yun Qinghe, who is naturally drawn to strength, would never be so obedient to follow an ordinary slave master, even if she has already formed a slave spirit seal.

"Actually, I came to find you, young master, because I heard some rumors in the market."

After a pause, Yun Yue said calmly, "I heard that quite a few demon merchants from other places have arrived today, inquiring about fairies with truly powerful backgrounds. If I'm not mistaken, they should all be your people, young master?"

"It seems that Sect Master Yun wields considerable influence in Golden Deer City, with your Misty Pavilion's spies everywhere."

Lin Heng narrowed his eyes slightly. "So what? You, who have all the information on the fairies in the city, are you planning to recommend a few fairies to me? But what I want are not those packaged fairy maidens."

"What kind of fairy does the young master desire?"

Lin Heng looked at her meaningfully and said, "For example... those who perished around Golden Deer City after the last demonic tide."

Yun Yue was taken aback for a moment, but only for a second: "It seems that you also know that the falling stars after the demonic tide are related to the Immortal Realm?"

Lin Heng smiled but didn't say anything.

"But young master may have some misunderstanding. The falling stars after the demonic tide could indeed be fallen fairies, but they could also be some treasure from the immortal realm."

After thinking for a moment, Yun Yue said, "If you are interested in this, young master, how about we make a deal?"

"Don't tell me you want your two disciples back by your side."

Lin Heng shrugged.

Although this was his first time meeting Yun Yue, he was well aware of how close his two immortal servants were to Yun Yue.

Yun Yue, who is both a teacher and a mother to them, naturally doesn't want them to become someone else's immortal slaves, which is a perfectly normal thought.

Whether Lin Heng will agree is another matter entirely...

"No, young master, you've misunderstood."

Yun Yue shook her head and said, "The Slave Spirit Seal is a celestial seal created jointly by the five ancient sects. Even I cannot remove it, let alone now that I have already lost my spiritual power."

"I saw Qinghe and Tinglan by your side before, and they didn't seem to have suffered any terrible treatment, which has already put my mind at ease."

She looked at Yun Qinghe and Mu Tinglan with a complicated expression: "In these chaotic times, it's better for them to follow a capable master than to return to my side..."

Lin Heng looked at Yun Yue with newfound respect.

As expected of the sect leader of a major sect, he can see things so clearly.

"So what I really want to ask is for you to go to the dungeon of the city lord's mansion."

Yun Yue stated her needs.

"The dungeon of the city lord's mansion?"

Lin Heng looked at her suspiciously. "What do you want me to do there?"

"I will naturally inform you after you leave, young master."

Yun Yue didn't say it explicitly, but looked towards the center of the square: "I think that since you know the elders of the General Administration Division, going to the dungeon shouldn't be too difficult for you."

"It's really not difficult."

Lin Heng shrugged: "But since it's a transaction, what benefits will I get?"

"I can tell you everything about the star that fell a few days ago, young master," Yun Yue said.

"That won't work."

Lin Heng shook his head: "You said that the falling of the star does not necessarily mean the fall of the fairy. If it does not meet my expectations, I am not interested in this bargaining chip."

"If I could get a different kind of benefit, I might consider going to the dungeon."

As he spoke, Lin Heng's gaze traveled from top to bottom, following Yun Yue's slender waist, then up her shapely curves, and finally landing on her delicate face, where he smiled meaningfully.

Yun Yue trembled and her brows furrowed slightly.

She took a deep breath and asked as calmly as possible, "Young master, what do you mean...?"
