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

"What's wrong with you?"

Lin Heng stared at Gesang Nazha's tail with disbelief.

The nine tails, which were originally fluffy, were now adorned with ribbons and ornaments unique to the Western Region families.

To be honest, it does look quite good.

But why all of a sudden...?

At that moment, Gesang Nazha's voice echoed in Lin Heng's mind:

"My mother said that this ribbon has a better texture and that it will be more comfortable for my owner to stroke my tail."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Heng almost lost his composure.

For a fleeting moment, he even doubted whether Gesang Nazha was really that old fox's daughter.

Even if her daughter is treated well here, how can she let her daughter please her master like this?

Isn't it a bit too extreme for an old fox to like sharpening its claws?

"Master, in my mother's eyes, your acceptance of the dowry and my adoption as a fairy slave is no different from her marrying me, her daughter, to you."

"Marrying off a daughter..."

If it's the idea of ​​marrying off a daughter, then that makes much more sense.

Lin Heng nodded slowly.

After all, in any world, elders will pay attention to their daughters' married life and offer guidance after they get married...

Soon after, Gesang Nazha added, "But don't worry, Master, I know I am your celestial servant and I won't overstep my bounds. As for my tail... perhaps since you don't yet possess spiritual roots, you will indeed need to stroke it frequently in a couple of days."

"Why?" Lin Heng looked at her tail curiously.

At this moment, Gesang Nazha did not communicate with Lin Heng through Liu Hun Yu Ji, but said directly: "Because our Western Regions are located on a plateau and close to the Black Tide Sea, the higher the terrain, the closer to the demonic energy. Moreover, we are on this oasis... Therefore, since entering the Demonic Calendar, both the terrain near the collapsed Immortal Realm and the influence of the nearby Black Tide Sea will bring uncomfortable reactions to mortals who have not yet become immortals."

Altitude sickness?

This word popped into Lin Heng's mind.

"I think I heard someone mention it when I was in the City Lord's Mansion in Linxian City."

Mu Tinglan nodded slightly and looked at Gesang Nazha: "But I remember, your Sand Fox family also has a way to deal with this, doesn't it?"

"Um."

Gesang Naza continued, "Our sand fox family has been born in the Western Regions for generations, and our bloodline is already accustomed to this terrain. Therefore, I can convey this bloodline resistance to my master through our sand fox's most distinctive feature: its tail."

"So that's how it is..."

Lin Heng nodded slowly.

But at this moment, Song Jingyu leaned over to Lin Heng and said, "Teacher, I will be more careful at night from now on."

What are you paying attention to?

"Be careful not to burn her tail!"

"..."

Fortunately, the Oasis in the Clouds has just left Golden Deer City and is still some time away from the Western Regions, so the so-called altitude sickness won't arrive so soon.

But when Lin Heng went out to continue setting up the formation that night, Mu Tinglan took the initiative to bring Yun Qinghe and Gesang Nazha, who had transformed into the Heart-Eating Demon Wolf, together for a chat.

It wasn't until the dead of night that Lin Heng returned from outside, dusting off his clothes.

"Master, I'll go rest over there starting tonight."

Mu Tinglan, holding her pillow and blanket, said to Lin Heng, "After entering the Western Regions, Master will probably have to hold onto Fairy Nazha's tail all the time, which will be more convenient."

"This arrangement is indeed quite prudent."

Lin Heng nodded slowly, looking at Mu Tinglan with curiosity.

Who would have thought that she, who was once so loyal, would now be so considerate of herself?

Upon noticing Lin Heng's gaze, Mu Tinglan suddenly paused.

Then, a smile curved her eyes, and she thought to herself, "Master, you don't need to worry about not getting nourishment from the water spirit root. Before you fall asleep, I will use my water spirit root to nourish you. Hmm... how about at the Immortal Spirit Spring? Shall we soak together one more time?"

"...Let's decide on this for now."

Lin Heng raised an eyebrow and addressed the crowd.

"Yes, Master."

After giving Lin Heng a charming wink, Mu Tinglan took her things and went to the next room.

Song Jingyu, however, threatened Gesang Nazha, "Big dog, you'd better behave yourself sleeping next to the teacher!"

As a result, Gesang Nazha, who had transformed into a Heart-Eating Demon Wolf, bared her teeth at her directly...

Song Jingyu rushed to Lin Heng's side: "Teacher! She must have been disturbed by demonic energy again, punish her quickly!"

"..."

But clearly, Song Jingyu's worries were unnecessary.

Let's not even mention that Lin Heng sets up six desires for Gesang Nazha every day to stabilize her mind.

Even if she forgets one day, any dangerous actions she takes towards someone will not pose a threat to Lin Heng.

After all, regardless of her mental stability, the Slave Spirit Seal was a real and tangible existence...

So that night...

After blowing out the oil lamp, Lin Heng and Mu Tinglan went to the Immortal Spring for an extra meal before returning to bed to sleep.

However, the plumpness in front of her body transformed into nine fluffy tails.

The ribbons arranged by Baima Meiduo were quite exquisite...

In the following days, Lin Heng focused his main energy on constructing the Goddess's Delusional Array.

It is worth mentioning that on the third day, Lin Heng noticed that the temperature in the cloud oasis began to drop.

He also vaguely sensed the chaotic power of the rules floating around him, which did indeed cause a somewhat uncomfortable and nauseating reaction.

Fortunately, Gesang Nazha was already prepared. So when she finished the final construction of the Goddess's Delusion Array, she stayed by Lin Heng's side and gently wrapped her tail around Lin Heng's waist.

"Little teacher, little teacher!"

That afternoon, Lin Heng was just a few bricks away from completing the Goddess's Delusional Array when Tian Qianchen arrived carrying a scroll.

Lin Heng had no choice but to stop his work and said helplessly to him, "Elder Tian, ​​didn't you say you were going down to greet the guards in the city?"

Tian Qianchen, breathless, said, "I'm so sorry, little teacher, something terrible has happened in the capital!"

"The capital?"

Tian Qianchen nodded heavily: "Yes! It seems that it was the Spirit Restoration Array that you sent, Little Teacher, that made the Princess awake. So the Emperor instructed the city lords of various cities to distribute the Princess's portrait, saying that they wanted to find people who had seen the Princess recently. So the city lord gave me the Princess's portrait and asked me to come up and ask..."

"Recently?"

Lin Heng asked in surprise, "Didn't the princess lie in the palace the whole time without moving?"

"Yes! I confirmed with the city lord for a long time, but that's what the Emperor said."

Tian Qianchen said helplessly, then handed the scroll in his hand to Lin Heng.

"Alright, I'll show everyone later too."

Although he found the Emperor's order somewhat absurd, Lin Heng still decided to open the scroll and take a look.

As soon as the scroll was unfurled, Lin Heng's eyes widened in surprise.

The people in this painting...

Isn't that the sickly fairy I saw in Xiying's dream last time?!
