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

and many more……

What the hell!

Lin Heng suddenly opened his eyes with a start, only to see Mu Tinglan squatting down a bit.

Instinctively, Mu Tinglan released her hand: "M-Master, was it because I used too much force just now?"

"What are you doing?"

Lin Heng looked at Mu Tinglan with disbelief.

While highly loyal fairy servants are known to be very proactive, isn't this a bit too proactive?

Mu Tinglan also stared blankly at Lin Heng: "Didn't you say we were going to explore down there, Master...?"

"I'm talking about the ancestral graves of my next-door neighbor."

"Oh……"

Seeing her lower her head as if she had made a mistake, Lin Heng didn't feel comfortable blaming Mu Tinglan.

His reaction just now was simply because he didn't want his legs to be so weak he couldn't even stand up when they went down into the tunnel later...

So Lin Heng said to Mu Tinglan, "Soak in the spring water first and feel it. This spring water can help restore some of your depleted spiritual roots."

"Is that so?"

Mu Tinglan looked down at the spring water in disbelief, then closed her eyes and carefully felt it.

The spiritual energy of this fairy spring seems to truly possess a power that infuses her spiritual roots!

It was very faint, but the spiritual root was nourished very comfortably...

"Alright, get up."

Seeing that the spirit stones in the array had stopped being consumed, Lin Heng knew that soaking them for any longer would not have any effect.

"Qinghe, come in."

Lin Heng called out to Yun Qinghe outside, and Yun Qinghe obediently walked in from outside.

"Master, Senior Sister... Senior Sister."

She glanced cautiously at Lin Heng, then at her senior sister.

Clearly, the water stains still remaining on Mu Tinglan's body indicated that they had just bathed together in the Immortal Spring.

But why does Senior Sister seem so composed?

"Come."

At this moment, Lin Heng opened the window and pointed to a withered tree outside: "Try using your magic over there."

"Celestial arts?"

Yun Qinghe looked at him in surprise, "Master, my senior sister and I have exhausted our spiritual roots, how can we use immortal techniques?"

Before Lin Heng could speak, Mu Tinglan explained to her, "Yes, Junior Sister, Master's Immortal Spirit Spring is quite different from the Immortal Spirit Springs we've heard of before. I carefully sensed it for a moment just now, and my spiritual root does indeed show signs of revival."

"Really? Really?"

"Let's give it a try."

Lin Heng spoke to the two of them again.

"Okay, I'll go first."

Mu Tinglan nodded and stood next to Lin Heng.

Then, she immediately formed a hand seal and forcefully swung it towards the withered tree outside the window.

click -

As a wisp of celestial energy swept by, a branch snapped off the withered tree.

Amazing!

Lin Heng's eyes lit up as he looked at Yun Qinghe.

"Okay, I'll give it a try too."

Yun Qinghe nodded slightly and made a similar gesture after arriving at the spot where Mu Tinglan had been.

click!

Another branch broke off from the tree.

"Wow, impressive, Young Master Lin!"

"?"

Turning his head, Lin Heng realized he was on the other side of the wall, where Xia Feng was speaking to him: "You look so thin you're almost frail, but I didn't expect you to be so strong tonight? Hey, right, it's time for me to get going! You bastard, come here!"

"..."

Lin Heng's eyelids twitched, but he ignored the neighbor who was preparing for a fight.

"How are you feeling?" Lin Heng asked Mu Tinglan and Yun Qinghe.

Mu Tinglan frowned slightly and said, "It has indeed recovered somewhat, but the power of the immortal arts cannot be compared with before, in fact... it is much weaker."

"Well, that's the best we can do for now."

Lin Heng nodded; he wasn't surprised by the result.

"and……"

At this moment, Yun Qinghe also whispered from the side, "It seems that I can't truly control this immortal technique driven by spiritual energy at will."

"Yes, I do have that feeling."

Mu Tinglan echoed this sentiment.

"Because I'm in control."

"It's...Master?!"

The two looked at Lin Heng in surprise.

correct!

This celestial spring was originally part of Lin Heng's array.

So the slight abilities they've regained now are naturally thanks to their master!

[Immortal Slave Yun Qinghe's loyalty +1, now -4]

[Immortal Slave Mu Tinglan's loyalty +1, now 181]

"Thank you, Master!"

Almost simultaneously, the two knelt on one knee and looked at Lin Heng with gratitude.

It turns out that their master could not only grant them equality and freedom, but could even restore their immortal powers...

"Alright, it's time to go take a look now."

Lin Heng walked straight out of the shower room, and the two of them got up and followed him.

After taking a few spirit stones, the three left the house.

Lin Heng led them directly to their neighbor Lao Zhang's house across the street.

After being devoured by the insects, the house was so badly damaged that even the door was nowhere to be found.

However, Xia Feng mentioned that Old Zhang's ancestral graves were in his backyard...

"Demon worms, how disgusting..."

As she passed through Old Zhang's house, Yun Qinghe gently kicked away the outer shells of the insects beside her.

The room was filled with the stench of corpses and the smell of blood.

However, Mu Tinglan's expression remained calm; she had seen many such scenes before.

"This should be it."

Behind a tombstone, Lin Heng found several wooden planks that were carelessly covering the area.

After moving the plank aside, a pitted hole with a downward path appeared before the three of them.

The pit is very narrow, and can only accommodate a maximum of two people.

With Xia Feng's physique, he would probably have a hard time managing on his own...

"Master, I'll go ahead and clear the way. Qinghe, you stay by my side."

Mu Tinglan took the initiative to walk in front of Lin Heng and also made arrangements for Yun Qinghe.

"good!"

Yun Qinghe came to Lin Heng's side. Having regained some of her strength, her expression became as resolute as when they first met: "Master, Qinghe will protect you."

"Let's go."

Lin Heng took out a translucent, fluorescent spirit stone to use as a light source.

Slowly, the three of them walked downhill...

After walking a few steps, the path in the pit changed.

The originally irregular dirt road has been transformed into steps that continue downwards.

Xia Feng must have dug the tunnel here before.

"There seems to be a rich spiritual energy inside."

Gradually, Yun Qinghe was able to sense things from the tunnel.

But Mu Tinglan, who was walking at the front, gradually frowned.

Because besides spiritual energy, she also sensed something else...

They slowed their pace and continued downhill for another hundred meters or so.

"Master, please wait!"

Suddenly, Mu Tinglan stopped in her tracks.
