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

A single array used as an experiment can summon a demonic tide.

So what kind of capabilities does the array that Bao Haifeng wants to construct possess?

Thinking about this, Lin Heng couldn't help but feel a little curious.

After thinking for a moment, he said to Tian Qianchen, "Elder Tian, ​​could you please pass on a message to Elder Bao for me?"

"Pass on a message?" Tian Qianchen looked at Lin Heng with a puzzled expression.

"Um."

Lin Heng said with a smile, "Isn't Elder Bao short of ore for constructing the array? Then have him write down the ore he needs and give me a list, and I'll send it to him."

"deliver?"

Tian Qianchen's eyes widened, and he quickly said, "Little teacher, please let me finish. This old guy isn't as friendly as you think!"

"What else does he have?" Lin Heng asked calmly.

"Not long after you left last night, Langbu, the leader of the Ando sheep tribe, found him and seemed to be plotting something. He even sent me away."

Tian Qianchen said in a deep voice, "Moreover, when he first arrived at Zaxi Pass, he met with the chieftains of the Ando Sheep Tribe and the Jiali Bull Tribe before meeting me. And after I returned last night... I heard from the demon merchants on the oasis that you were surrounded by the Ando Sheep Tribe at Zaxi Pass last night."

"I see... "

Lin Heng narrowed his eyes slightly.

In other words, Bao Haifeng was likely involved when the Ando sheep tribe members came to test him last night.

Although for Langbu of the Ando Sheep Clan, most of the trouble they caused him was due to the Sand Fox Clan competing with them for territory.

But for Bao Haifeng, it wasn't that simple...

Using the Ando sheep tribe as a front was a way of testing their own strength.

Then, by bringing up the Gale Grass during the collaboration, isn't he just testing the waters with his trump card, the spiritual herb?

This is both a test of strength and a test of their trump cards; it's practically blatantly openly threatening to steal their ore!

In fact, according to the logic of a normal businessman, if you need ore, you should sit down and talk about cooperation to reach a deal that satisfies both parties.

As for why Bao Haifeng, as the elder of the General Administration, chose to use robbery as a method, Lin Heng could guess what his thoughts were.

After all, Tian Qianchen had said that some of the ore he used to construct the Nine Seas Goddess statue was an order that Bao Haifeng had placed long ago at the mine.

As a result, the emperor of Tian Shu Kingdom now needs this batch of ore, so the mine owner has no choice but to transport it to the capital first.

And these ores ultimately ended up in his own hands...

Therefore, in Bao Haifeng's eyes, these ores were stolen from him.

Then of course he had to take it back...

Lin Heng, who had only guessed Bao Haifeng's thoughts, couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.

But my ore is what the Emperor of the State wants, why the hell are you taking your anger out on me?

If you're so capable, why not just snatch the ore directly from the Emperor during transport?

Why were you just hiding in the house smashing cups back then?

Ultimately, that old man was just playing favorites against his customers...

"Little teacher, now you know what that old guy is really up to, right?"

Tian Qianchen looked at Lin Heng with some helplessness, then muttered, "It's all thanks to that guy surnamed Tao for concealing my relationship with you, Little Teacher, during his report; otherwise, that guy surnamed Bao wouldn't have told me all this..."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Heng said to Tian Qianchen, "Then let's arrange it this way."

"so?"

Tian Qianchen was puzzled.

Lin Heng nodded: "Okay, go tell Elder Bao that I sent him the ore for constructing the array."

Tian Qianchen stared wide-eyed at Lin Heng.

After all, in his impression, Lin Hengke was never the kind of nice guy who would remain indifferent even if he knew the other party was going to steal his things.

From Linxian City to Jinlu City, and now to the Western Regions.

How many people who wanted to take advantage of Lin Heng have now disappeared without a trace?

Perhaps the only one whose fate was slightly better was Aunt Xue from Jinlu City.

After all, she only lost both legs; she still had her life...

This time, Tian Qianchen even made preparations in advance when she told Lin Heng the news.

If Lin Heng intends to deal with Bao Haifeng, then as an elder of the General Administration, I can at most offer some polite words from the sidelines.

As for what Lin Heng wants to do, that's not up to him...

Unexpectedly, Lin Heng not only did not say he wanted to deal with Bao Haifeng, but also wanted to send the ore that Bao Haifeng needed.

After a long pause, Tian Qianchen asked incredulously, "Little teacher, are you... are you sure?"

"Sure."

Lin Heng chuckled easily, "After all, we're still in the cooperation phase. I'm also very curious about what good things are hidden underground at Zaxi Pass."

"oh!!!"

Tian Qianchen held up a finger and gave Lin Heng a knowing smile.

He finally understands now.

The reason Lin Heng didn't confront Bao Haifeng after learning his purpose was that the excavation work at Zaxi Pass was not yet finished.

As for what they'll find underground...

Based on his understanding of the young teacher, he probably knew that what the teacher needed was not just a treasure with the power of rules, as agreed upon.

"Elder Tian, ​​as you know, although my territory produces quite a few spirit stones, who would complain about having too many spirit stones these days?"

Lin Heng said slowly, "And the array formation for the Cloud Oasis, I'd also like to see if I can add a few more..."

Tian Qianchen rolled his eyes.

Spirit stone veins, array construction books—aren't those the treasures Bao Haifeng mentioned yesterday when discussing cooperation?

but……

That's more like it!

This is the teacher I remember, who was like a robber and wanted all the benefits!

"Okay, little teacher, I'll go down and pass on a message to you."

As Tian Qianchen spoke, he stood up.

Lin Heng teased, "Elder Tian, ​​you're all elders of the General Administration Division, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to help me like this?"

"Hmph, a teacher for a day is a father for life. I know how to distinguish between colleagues and family... I'm leaving!"

But as he stepped out the door, he turned back and added, "When I get back, little teacher, you said you'd teach me how to construct arrays!"

"..."

The heavy rain continued into the evening.

After dinner, Lin Heng walked to the eaves of the courtyard and looked towards the entrance. Tian Qianchen had not yet returned.

"what?"

However, at the entrance to the Cloud Oasis, Lin Heng saw an unfamiliar figure.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, scrutinizing her: "What's she doing here?"

At the entrance to the oasis in the clouds stood a small bull demon from the Jiali Bull Clan.

Lin Heng vaguely remembered the pair of pinkish cow horns on her head.

Last night, while he was in the postpartum tent at the livestock farm, he discovered that the little calf demon was peeking outside.

Moreover, he clearly remembered that the Immortal Slave Manual had given a hint that this little bull demon had a spiritual root purity of 48%...

However, because of the curtain at that time, Lin Heng only saw her pair of bull horns, but did not see her figure.

Now, looking at it, although the little bull demon's arms are thicker than his own thighs, its round and chubby appearance does look somewhat cute, just not quite to his aesthetic sensibilities.

Especially her eyes, clear as water, looked very innocent.

"Oh, Fairy Pearl, I'm here!"

Suddenly, the door to the house in the next yard was flung open.

Lin Heng turned his head and saw Xia Feng rushing towards the little bull demon in the rain!

In an instant, Lin Heng's eyes widened.

So that's the demon immortal Xia Feng was talking about...

Is that the little bull demon from the Jiali Bull Clan?!
