After leaving the Immortal Spring, Lin Heng led Yun Qinghe, Mu Tinglan, and Tian Qianchen to meet up in the courtyard.

"Where is Young Master Xia?"

Lin Heng looked around but couldn't find Xia Feng. "Is he still at the Sand Fox family's shop?"

"He went downstairs a long time ago!"

Tian Qianchen said with a smile, "That chubby boy said that the time he had agreed to meet with the Water Spirit Root Fairy of the Misty Pavilion had come, so he left first."

"Wish him luck."

Lin Heng shrugged, then beckoned a few of his servants to come and help move the wooden crates.

After all, these two large boxes of fine grass are no small amount.

"By the way, little teacher, I've asked the city lord's mansion to send a few guards to wait downstairs. Just have your people carry these strong herbs down."

"Um."

Following the vine-covered corridor, Lin Heng and his group descended from the Oasis in the Clouds.

Soon, the four guards from the city lord's mansion took the two large boxes of strong herbs and led the way.

Stepping into Jinlu City again, walking through the streets, I noticed that there were significantly more elegant women swaying gracefully than yesterday.

After all, following the announcement of the new Dawn rules, the fairies were all eagerly searching for valuable and expensive jewelry in the surrounding shops in order to increase their value.

However, their identical walking posture with their legs crossed made Yun Qinghe frown.

"Senior sister, I'm actually quite curious, don't they feel awkward walking like that?"

Finally, Yun Qinghe, who was walking behind Lin Heng, couldn't help but ask Mu Tinglan beside her in a soft voice.

Mu Tinglan shook her head: "Perhaps they themselves feel awkward, but as celestial maidens, this should be training that the celestial slave merchants have specially provided for them."

"Training? Even walking requires specific skills?"

Yun Qinghe was even more puzzled, "But such a purpose..."

"Bang!"

Suddenly, one of the guards at the front seemed to lose his composure.

"Cousin, can you concentrate a little?"

The guard next to him immediately kicked him in the backside and warned, "The person behind you is a friend of the Chief of the General Affairs Department. If you knock over these things, even if I plead with you, it won't do you any good!"

"No, cousin, I just arrived in Golden Deer City, and all these beautiful women on the streets... they're practically bewitching me, I can't take my eyes off them!"

"Fool, are they trying to seduce you? They're trying to seduce rich businessmen. Do you know how much these beauties cost? My entire year's income isn't even enough to cover their price!"

"But those celestial maidens sway and sway... which man's spiritual root could resist? Who wouldn't want to take another look?"

"Then you shouldn't even be a man!"

"..."

At this moment, Mu Tinglan nudged Yun Qinghe beside her with her elbow and gestured with her chin toward the guards in front of her: "See? That's why they walk like that."

"Oh……"

Yun Qinghe nodded slowly, but out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Lin Heng in front of her.

Will walking like this attract the other person's attention?

"?"

A moment later, Lin Heng's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Yun Qinghe walking beside him, scrutinizing her from head to toe with a puzzled expression: "Does your leg still hurt?"

"Huh? No, no."

Yun Qinghe was taken aback: "Why do you say that, Master?"

Lin Heng asked suspiciously, "Then why do you walk so strangely?"

"Is it strange?"

"puff."

Mu Tinglan, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's alright, Master. Qinghe is just imitating the way those fairy maidens walk."

"Why should we imitate them?"

Lin Heng shook his head helplessly, "Besides, your imitation isn't even close."

Although the Wood Spirit Root Fairy's body is flexible, this gait requires long-term practice to achieve.

"So it turns out I just didn't imitate it well..."

Yun Qinghe sighed softly.

"Ahem, junior sister."

At this moment, Mu Tinglan whispered from the side, "Why did Master suddenly ask if your leg hurts?"

Yun Qinghe was immediately startled and quickly said, "Senior Sister, you, you mustn't be thinking such things... Maybe Master just thinks my imitation isn't good enough!"

"Is that so?"

Mu Tinglan smiled but didn't press the matter further.

However, she now understands why her junior sister was so close to their master today.

It seems quite a few things happened while I was brewing the medicine yesterday...

With the help of guards and Tian Qianchen leading the way.

This time, Lin Heng and his group finally managed to enter the territory of the City Lord's Mansion.

However, the hand seal hall was still heavily guarded. Even though no one was performing hand seals inside, the magic array that shielded the room from noise was still consuming spirit stones to keep running.

After all, the Seal Hall holds a secret that could cause the collapse of the entire industrial chain of Golden Deer City.

Once exposed, the loss will likely be far more than just one or two spirit stones.

"Little teacher, this is the city lord's mansion."

Upon arriving at the entrance of what appeared to be an ordinary-looking mansion, Tian Qianchen introduced it to Lin Heng.

"The City Lord's Mansion of Golden Deer City?"

Yun Qinghe and Mu Tinglan looked at each other.

After all, they had all been to the city lord's mansion in Linxian City.

Despite Jinlu City having a better economy, its city lord's mansion was far less lavishly decorated than Caohe's.

On the contrary, compared to the buildings in Golden Deer City, the city lord's mansion in front of us seemed quite ordinary.

The Mijin Pavilion, located on a bustling street, is far more luxurious than the City Lord's Mansion.

However, Lin Heng knew that the reason why the city lord's mansion was built so plainly was not because the deer demon was poor, but because she deliberately made her own mansion appear so ordinary.

After all, all the industries in Jinlu City exist here to elevate Xianyuan's status.

How can we make the women feel that increasing their value equates to having sufficient status?

Besides the special new regulations of Dawn in Golden Deer City, making the shops and other businesses that serve the fairies more luxurious than the city lord's mansion would also achieve the same goal.

It could be said that the entire city, inside and out, was impenetrably highlighting the value of the Fairy Maidens...

"Elder Tian! Elder Tian, ​​this must be your friend, right?"

The moment I stepped into the city lord's mansion, the city lord, who had a pair of golden deer antlers on his head, came over to greet me personally.

"That's right, that's right."

Before Lin Heng could speak, Tian Qianchen immediately interjected, "Lin Heng is a junior relative of one of my distant relatives. He's a businessman who travels around doing business. That ancient tree outside is an ancient relic that he bought at a high price."

As he spoke, he also winked at Lin Heng.

"Yes, Elder Tian is a distant relative of mine."

Lin Heng nodded in agreement.

Because he knew that Tian Qianchen was saying this to help him conceal the secrets of the array builder and the lord of the Cloud Oasis.

After all, when you're out and about, you never know whether the people you meet are enemies or friends.

"Hehe, so this young man's name is Lin Heng?"

The deer demon nodded to Lin Heng with satisfaction: "Old Deer Yuan Zheng has been a king in Golden Deer City for hundreds of years. Everyone respectfully calls me King Deer."
