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

The giant waves summoned by the Azure Tortoise collided fiercely with the black mist, and even Lin Heng and the others in the Cloud Oasis could feel the fluctuations of spiritual energy there.

"Fairy Mu almost completely crushed the demons in the demon tide."

Gesang Nazha's furrowed brows relaxed, and she looked at Lin Heng gratefully.

She had witnessed the immense power of the Azure Tortoise firsthand.

By leaving Mu Tinglan with the Sand Fox family at the Zaxi Pass, Lin Heng had clearly done the Sand Fox family a great favor...

[Xiannu Gesang Nazha's loyalty +5, now 125]

Lin Heng glanced at the feedback in the Immortal Slave Manual and then began to ponder, stroking his chin.

It wasn't that Gesang Naza's increased loyalty surprised him.

After all, she was the eldest daughter of the Sand Fox family, and he had sent Mu Tinglan to protect the Sand Fox family during the Demon Tide, so it was only natural for her to increase her loyalty.

What truly surprised him was Bao Haifeng's summoning of the Demon Tide.

Choosing to summon the demonic tide at the moment he was away, using his array to summon the demonic tide, didn't seem like he was dealing with him, nor did it seem like he was dealing with the Sand Fox Clan.

Lin Heng, on the contrary, felt that this tactic was more like an attempt to trap him at the Zaxi Pass...

"Tsk tsk, Fairy Mu's transformation into a sacred beast is truly formidable!"

At this moment, Tian Qianchen, who had been studying with Lin Heng for an afternoon, couldn't help but sigh.

However, he said with some puzzlement, "But this demonic tide... Little teacher, why does it seem a bit different from Cao He's array formation?"

"They are quite different."

Lin Heng nodded and turned his gaze to the Demon Detector.

Because the demonic worms and demonic warhorses that Cao He summoned before were all recorded on the Demon Appraisal Platform.

However, the Demon Observation Platform showed no reaction whatsoever to this surge of demonic energy.

So Lin Heng used Liu Hun Yu Ji's ability to inquire about the situation from Mu Ting Lan.

"No problem, Master."

Soon, Mu Tinglan's voice responded in his mind, "They're just some small insects from the Demon Realm, not even as good as the Demon Realm worms in Linxian City back then, right..."

Halfway through his sentence, Mu Tinglan, who was undergoing the transformation of a sacred beast at the Zaxi Pass, stirred up another huge wave.

After extinguishing the black mist of the demonic tide once again, Mu Tinglan's voice came again:

"These insects are just too many. I even regret using the Sacred Beast Transformation; it's such a waste of spiritual energy."

"Just in case, using the strongest methods is not a problem. Anyway, we have enough spirit stones to sustain one demonic tide."

"That's true. If I get rid of these little bugs quickly, I can set up an array to read books. After all, that position of him lying on top of his master yesterday... I saw it in the Little Spirit Book!"

"...Read fewer spiritual books."

Lin Heng sighed helplessly.

"Really? But I clearly felt Master was working very hard last night~"

"..."

Lin Heng rolled his eyes.

After learning that Mu Tinglan was doing well, he stopped looking in the direction of Zaxi Pass and turned back into the house.

……

After nightfall, the Oasis in the Clouds had traveled quite a distance and could no longer see the Zaxi Pass at all.

However, Mu Tinglan did give him a report.

By using the form of the Azure Tortoise, she ensured that the area where the Sand Fox Clan lived was not affected in the slightest.

On the contrary, Baima Meiduo told her that many of the buildings in the livestock farm had been eaten by insects.

It wasn't that Mu Tinglan deliberately didn't protect them, but rather that there were simply too many insects in this demonic tide, and she couldn't possibly take care of them all.

"Oh, right."

Lin Heng asked Mu Tinglan in his mind, "With your current strength, are you capable of dealing with the Demon Pattern General?"

The next demonic tide is what he truly cares about.

After all, it's impossible that the Demon General would mistake him for the Five Elements Immortal Venerable every single time...

After thinking for a moment, Mu Tinglan said in a deep voice, "If it's a Demon Pattern General, then there's definitely no problem. With the help of Junior Sister and Fairy Nazha, we won't suffer the same defeat as before. But if it's just a Demon Pattern General appearing, like in Linxian City before... that's actually a rare occurrence."

"What do you mean?"

Lin Heng asked curiously.

"Because Demon Pattern Generals often lead their troops into battle together, sometimes even several Demon Pattern Generals at once. And the abilities of Demon Pattern Generals can greatly enhance the combat power of those demon soldiers. In that case, it will probably require some of the master's resources..."

"There's no problem with resources."

Lin Heng breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that the resources Mu Tinglan mentioned were the array formation of the Cloud Oasis and the spiritual herbs.

Although these things are very precious in the eyes of ordinary people, they are even reluctant to use them in times of crisis.

But for Lin Heng, they existed solely to save his life...

"Um?"

Suddenly, Mu Tinglan let out a soft scolding.

"What happened?"

Lin Heng immediately asked.

Mu Tinglan whispered, "Nothing happened, but I'm just reading the Little Spirit Book alone in this tent where I had fun with Master yesterday. I miss Master a little. Hmm..."

Lin Heng calmly said, "Take your hand away."

Mu Tinglan exclaimed in surprise, "Master, how did you know? I just moved my skirt aside..."

"I heard everything."

"Oh...then I'll save the nourishment of the water spirit root for when Master returns."

"..."

It was late at night, time to rest.

After soaking in the Immortal Spring with Yun Qinghe and the others, Lin Heng blew out the oil lamp and prepared to go to sleep.

Gesang Nazha and Song Jingyu, who can transform into fox spirits, stood still.

Song Jingyu patted Gesang Nazha's tail, then leaned close to the fox's ear and said ingratiatingly, "Hey, Sister Nazha, we made a promise..."

"Then we must obey the master's wishes."

After saying a few words, Gesang Nazha went directly to the bedside and said to Lin Heng, who was already lying down, "Master, Song Jingyu said she wants to sleep next to you tonight."

"Hey, hey, hey, why did you just say it out loud!"

Song Jingyu stared wide-eyed, her face flushed.

"By the way, Master."

At this moment, Yun Qinghe said to Lin Heng, "We agreed on today... so I'll go rest in the next room then?"

"Um."

Lin Heng nodded, and Yun Qinghe also went into the next room, but after sitting on the edge of the bed, she awkwardly adjusted her clothes at her chest...

[Immortal Slave Yun Qinghe's loyalty +2, now 226]

Lin Heng looked thoughtfully at the Immortal Slave Manual in front of him.

He hadn't quite understood why sleeping in separate rooms required increasing loyalty, and now this is happening again?

"what?"

Song Jingyu was stunned for a moment.

My own sister actually offered to sleep in the next room?

I've been begging this big dog for so long!
