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

Jinlu City, inside the city lord's palace.

"Hehe, no need to worry."

After learning that Yun Yue might have some dealings with Lin Heng, Mi Yuanzheng simply smiled faintly.

Beside her, Aunt Xue couldn't help but wonder, "King Deer, but the formation we're using to deal with her was constructed by Lin Heng. What if he's with Yun Yue too..."

"Why did he come with Yun Yue?"

Mi Yuanzheng shook his head and said, "Although Yun Yue manages the Misty Pavilion, which has many celestial maidens, the benefits she can create for Lin Heng are very limited. From what I know of Lin Heng, he is not interested in the celestial maidens of Golden Deer City."

"What if...?"

Aunt Xue was still a little uneasy.

"There's no 'what if'."

Mi Yuanzheng said casually, "Even if Lin Heng and Yun Yue have reached a cooperation that is even closer than ours, Lin Heng himself will be in trouble tomorrow."

"King Deer, you...you mean you're going to deal with Lin Heng?"

Aunt Xue looked at Mi Yuanzheng in surprise.

She clearly remembered that Mi Yuanzheng's attitude towards Lin Heng was one of goodwill and attempts to win him over.

"When did I say I was going to deal with Lin Heng?"

Mi Yuanzheng said meaningfully, "My attitude towards Lin Heng has always been friendly."

"As for those who are dealing with him..."

As he spoke, Mi Yuanzheng paused and looked out the window: "They should be on their way now..."

……

midnight.

On the road from the capital city of Jingyang to Jinlu City, a large and impressive procession was rushing over overnight.

Inside the carriage in the center.

Tian Qianchen was dozing off with his eyes closed, which greatly displeased the goatee sitting next to him.

Elder Tian.

The goatee frowned and said, "We're heading to Golden Deer City to capture a wanted criminal who stole secrets from the Chief of Staff's driver. Instead of brainstorming a plan, you're taking a nap here?"

But Tian Qianchen remained motionless, sleeping soundly against the carriage window.

Until the goatee suddenly raised his voice: "Elder Tian!"

Holy crap!

Tian Qianchen shuddered and immediately started cursing at him, saying, "You surnamed Tao, do you have any conscience? I stayed up all night to finish the General Headquarters' mission, and instead of being grateful, you're telling me what to do when I'm sleeping?"

"I'm just reminding you to take this seriously."

Elder Tao calmly said, "If the other side really manages to steal our General Administration's array formation, it will definitely be a big problem."

"Alright, alright, stop sending them. All those formations were stolen from our General Headquarters. Does that mean other people already knew how to do it?"

Tian Qianchen waved his hand dismissively.

"It was always like that?"

Elder Tao frowned and said, "In the Tian Shu Kingdom today, besides our General Administration Division, how many other people do you think possess the technology of constructing arrays?"

"That's hard to say."

Tian Qianchen said slowly, "Don't forget, the array construction technology of our General Administration Division was also discovered in the long slumber tomb built by the Five Source Immortal Venerable in the Immortal Ancient Era."

"Indeed, it cannot be ruled out that there are other relics from the ancient immortal era that contain records of array formations, but none of them would be as detailed as the Chaos Demon Lord's notes."

Elder Tao said solemnly, "Have you forgotten? Among the Shadow Stones brought back from the direction of Golden Deer City, although that person was only maintaining a simple array, his methods definitely demonstrated a mastery of the core knowledge of array construction, namely the power of rules."

He turned to Tian Qianchen and said, "Even if it's just a simple formation, have you ever seen anyone maintain it while taking a walk? That carefree attitude is unheard of."

"How come I've never seen this before..."

Tian Qianchen muttered to himself.

Let alone simple formations, back when I was in the Oasis in the Clouds, my little teacher would even take a leisurely stroll while maintaining the formation!

However, the figure in the Reflection Stone was only formed by spiritual energy overflowing with golden light, so it cannot be completely confirmed that the person was Lin Heng.

But he really couldn't find another person with such outstanding array-building skills. Even the old guy next to him was definitely no match for Lin Heng!

"In short, once we get to the city this morning, we should resolve the matter of Jinlu City as soon as possible."

Suddenly, Elder Tao sighed, "The unusual situation on the princess's side is what our General Administration will be working on for a long time to come."

"What exactly happened to the princess?"

Tian Qianchen asked Elder Tao.

Because after he returned to Jingyang City this time, the General Administration Office had already sent someone to the capital city.

So he stayed at the General Administration Headquarters to conduct research on the burial mound.

Elder Tao said in a deep voice, "It seems that there was something wrong with the Princess's Spirit Restoration Array. Some time ago, I noticed that the Spirit Restoration Array by the Princess's bed was gathering a lot of spiritual energy, which is why the Princess spoke at that time."

"The princess is awake?"

Tian Qianchen asked Elder Tao in surprise.

Since the beginning of the Demon Calendar and the fall of the princess, she has been in a state of eternal slumber.

The impact of someone like that suddenly speaking is comparable to that of his chubby neighbor in the Cloud Oasis, who suddenly says he's not interested in the Immortal Slave...

"He's not awake, he's just talking."

Elder Tao shook his head and said, "I don't know if it was sleep talking or what, but the princess mentioned a place."

"What?"

"Zaxi Pass in the Western Regions".

Tian Qianchen was immediately taken aback: "The Sand Fox Clan's lair?"

"Um……"

Elder Tao nodded slightly and said, "And the princess's complete statement was that below the oasis at Zaxi Pass is the birthplace of the Chaos Demon Lord."

"The Chaos Demon Lord?"

Tian Qianchen was surprised.

"Um."

Elder Tao nodded and said, "After we finish dealing with the matters in Golden Deer City, we'll return to the General Administration to study the Chaos Demon Lord's notes and see if we can find any clues..."

Suddenly, Elder Tao paused.

He lifted the curtain of the carriage, and a faint ray of dawn shone on the city wall in front of him.

"arrive."

……

Early morning.

Lin Heng stretched and went out of his house in the Oasis in the Clouds.

Soon, a servant rushed over and said, "Young Master Lin, the City Lord's Mansion has sent someone with an invitation."

"invite?"

Lin Heng asked in surprise, "Why did the City Lord's Mansion invite me?"

"It wasn't an invitation from the City Lord's Mansion..."

Xiannu shook her head and said, "The people from the City Lord's Mansion said that it was an elder from the General Administration Department who invited Young Master Lin to the City Lord's Mansion for a talk."

"Have the people from the General Staff arrived?"

Lin Heng was slightly surprised.

Although when he mentioned the General Administration Division, the first person he thought of was Tian Qianchen.

But if Tian Qianchen were to return to Golden Deer City alone, he would definitely rush back to Cloud Oasis to see if his home was still there, rather than inviting me to the City Lord's Mansion.

Xiannu nodded and said in recollection, "Yes, and the people from the City Lord's Mansion said that this invitation has nothing to do with the City Lord's Mansion; it's just that the people from the General Administration Division want to see you."

"That's what he said?"

"I relayed Lin Shao's exact words..."

Lin Heng nodded slightly and touched his chin.

Although he didn't know why the General Commander had come to see him, judging from the City Lord's Mansion's statement, that old deer Mi Yuanzheng definitely wanted to keep himself out of the mess...

"Okay, I understand."

Lin Heng waved his hand, indicating that Xiannu could leave.

Turning around, Lin Heng glanced at Xiannu in the house, and finally fixed his gaze on Gesang Nazha, who had gotten up early and was standing alone by the window.

Today, Yun Yue is also going to the City Lord's Mansion, so it would definitely be inappropriate to bring Yun Qinghe and Mu Tinglan along.

So he went over and patted Gesang Nazha's tail.

Gesang Nazha paused for a moment, turned her head, and looked at Lin Heng with surprise.

"Come to the Fairy Spring."

"Yes……"
