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

But as it turns out, Lin Heng wasn't dreaming.

Mu Tinglan knew all too well how to please her master; she knew exactly what a celestial slave should do without Lin Heng even having to say a word.

Her hand remained on Lin Heng's side...

But the next morning, Lin Heng found it noisy.

In his drowsy state, he heard Yun Qinghe and Mu Tinglan's voices intermittently...

"Senior sister, is it really you?!"

"Junior sister? You, you are also Master's immortal slave?"

"That's wonderful, Senior Sister! I was begging Master to take you in yesterday, and I never expected you would actually come..."

"..."

After turning over, Lin Heng continued to sleep for a while.

When he finally came to his senses and sat up, he saw Yun Qinghe and Mu Tinglan kneeling by the bed, looking at him respectfully.

"Master, you're awake."

Almost simultaneously, the two greeted him.

Mu Tinglan handed over a bowl of water at the right time. After Lin Heng took a sip, she handed him a cloth that was wet with warm water.

So Lin Heng sat on the bed, drank a glass of water, and even washed his face.

Yun Qinghe, unaware of the many rules governing celestial servants, simply said to Lin Heng with deep gratitude, "Thank you, Master! I never expected you to actually take my senior sister in!"

Lin Heng paused for a moment. In his half-awake state, he seemed to have overheard their conversation...

At this moment, Lin Heng understood completely: "So, she's your senior sister?"

"Yes! Thank you, Master."

"Thank you, Master."

The two thanked Lin Heng again.

Lin Heng nodded slowly and silently checked their loyalty in the Immortal Slave Handbook.

[Immortal Slave Yun Qinghe's loyalty is -10]

[Immortal Slave Mu Tinglan's loyalty is 180]

……

The recognition of each other by the senior and junior sisters indeed increased their loyalty to varying degrees.

"Owner."

At this moment, Mu Tinglan said with a smile, "Qinghe just told me that you are indeed a kind and benevolent slave master."

"But I will also arrange jobs for you," Lin Heng said expressionlessly.

"Of course."

Mu Tinglan nodded, then stood up and said, "Master, you seemed to have said last night that I would be working for you today?"

Lin Heng picked up a shovel from the side and handed it to her: "Go dig a hole behind our house, about half the size of the kitchen, and about half my height deep."

These are the conditions for constructing the Array of the Immortal Spring.

"Yes, Master."

Mu Tinglan picked up the shovel and immediately got to work.

"Master, I'll go over there too..."

At this moment, Yun Qinghe also gradually got up.

"You don't need to worry about anything. Just stay in bed and collect spirit stones. That's all you need to do."

"..."

After everything was arranged, Lin Heng went directly to Linxian City and summoned more than a dozen former male cultivators to do construction work such as bricklaying.

Such laborers are not hard to find; after the fall of the immortals, they can be found almost everywhere in the "job market" of the marketplace.

Moreover, their prices are very cheap; Lin Heng's needs for expanding his house wouldn't even cost him a whole spirit stone.

……

Soon, construction officially began at Lin Heng's house, while Lin Heng directed the male cultivators who were doing the hard labor outside.

After lunch, Lin Heng saw Chi Hu walking towards him with his head held high outside the house.

Chi Hu nodded to him and said in surprise, "You kid, you've actually started repairing the house?"

"We have too many celestial servants, and not enough space."

As Lin Heng spoke, he took out three spirit stones and handed them to Chi Hu.

"Heh, you're actually quite sensible?"

Red Tiger nodded in satisfaction and put the spirit stone into his pocket.

So, in high spirits, he leaned close to Lin Heng's ear and said, "By the way, kid, how was that fairy slave yesterday? I really enjoyed watching her. Where is she? Aren't you going to pull her out for me to see? Did you kill her, kid...?"

Lin Heng said with a smile, "Lord Red Tiger, you seem quite eager to have tea at the City Lord's mansion?"

"...No, no, wait, I haven't seen that kid for days!"

Chi Hu quickly waved his hand and went to Xia Feng's side, having made a fool of himself.

Knock knock knock!

"Open the door, Xia Feng, open the door for me! It's time to pay Ancheng taxes today!"

Accompanied by a series of loud knocks on the door, Chi Hu continued to shout and curse inside.

But Xia Feng's voice did not come from inside the house for a long time.

A few dozen seconds later, Xia Feng's barely clothed fairy servant timidly opened the door.

"Lord Red Tiger, our master left early this morning..."

"Out again?"

Red Tiger frowned: "This guy isn't planning on not giving me spirit stones, is he...?"

"Tell your master I'll be back tomorrow morning, and if he doesn't give me spirit stones, I'll tear his house down! As for you... hehe, I'll take you back and have a good time with you!"

"..."

The Red Tiger arrived quickly and left just as quickly.

After all, only Lin Heng and Xia Feng's families remained in the entire slum.

But that guy...

Lately, I seem to be leaving early and returning late.

Lin Heng looked at Xia Feng's door and thought to himself. If it weren't for the fact that he could still hear his fairy servant moaning on the other side of the wall in the middle of the night, he would have thought that he had been eaten by a demon.

……

Over the course of the day, a preliminary outline of the expansion project had been completed on the back side of Lin Heng's house.

After settling the male cultivators' wages for the day, he also prepared to go back and study the array formation of the Immortal Spirit Spring.

"Young Master Lin, Young Master Lin!"

Suddenly, a shout came from behind.

"Oh?"

Turning around, I saw Xia Feng, his face covered in mud, holding a shovel in his hand.

Lin Heng nodded to his neighbor, whom he hadn't seen for two days: "Young Master Xia, why haven't I seen you lately?"

"I……"

After a pause, Xia Feng leaned closer to Lin Heng: "I'm doing something big!"

Lin Heng rubbed his nose: "Why do you smell like that?"

"Oh, maybe it's because I've been underground these past few days, but my bitch said I've become more manly."

As he spoke, Xia Feng patted his belly proudly.

"..."

As for masculinity, it's clearly just earthy smell, isn't it?

Being a celestial servant in this world is truly not easy...

"Then why did you run underground?"

"Come here, Young Master Lin, let me show you something..."

Xia Feng carefully looked around to make sure no one was there before taking a small wooden box out of his pocket.

"This is?"

"Look!"

As Xia Feng opened the wooden box, even Lin Heng couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.

Because what was placed in the box was actually a plant wrapped in golden light!

Lin Heng was very familiar with the golden light above.

Within the spirit stones used as currency, and at the moment Yun Qinghe activated the Spirit Restoration Array, he felt the same aura as that of the golden light.

He knew that these golden lights were spiritual energy.

The plants enveloped in spiritual energy almost disappeared from this world long after that massive demonic tide.

Only deep underground, or inside certain caves, is there a chance of survival.

Therefore, in the present day, the price of spiritual herbs has been driven up by merchants in the city, and high-quality ones can even fetch astronomical prices.

Although Lin Heng didn't know the quality of the spiritual herb in Xia Feng's hand, or even its species, he realized a more crucial issue.

This medicinal herb was clearly picked by Xia Feng himself not long ago.

The places where spiritual herbs grow are often close to the source of spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

However, these places have long been developed by the powerful and wealthy and used as mines for producing spirit stones...

"Where did you get that?"

Lin Heng couldn't help but ask Xia Feng.

"Right in Old Zhang's backyard!"

Xia Feng pointed to a house behind him.

That was their former neighbor, but during the last demonic tide, that poor neighbor's body was nowhere to be found...

"I was looking for spirit stones at his house before, but I didn't find any. Instead, I found a note in his drawer. The note said there was something in his family's ancestral grave in the backyard, so I dug there for two whole days!"

"So, you dug up someone's ancestral grave?"

"Yes, yes!"

"..."

Lin Heng remained silent.

Xia Feng, with his shifty eyes, said, "Young Master Lin, since we seem to get along well, consider this spirit herb a gift from me. You've got plenty down there anyway. Don't underestimate it; I've heard it's incredibly effective in that area..."

"etc."

Suddenly, Lin Heng grasped a key point.

"Interested, Young Master Lin? Here you go, we're neighbors, we're practically family!"

As he spoke, Xia Feng handed the box to Lin Heng.

Lin Heng narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "You just said... there are many more of these spiritual herbs down there?"
