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

"You bought a fairy slave?"

Lin Heng looked around in surprise, then sized up Xia Feng.

There was nothing around this guy except for a cucumber tucked into his body, let alone any other person.

"It's over there!"

Xia Feng pointed behind him.

A wolf-faced demon was seen pushing a simple cart slowly toward the slums, and sitting on the cart was a fairy who was indeed quite good-looking.

"So that's the high-end stuff you were talking about?"

Lin Heng looked at Xia Feng.

With such a beautiful appearance, he had been recommended by many demons in the market.

Aside from her appearance, Lin Heng also checked her spiritual root through the Immortal Slave Manual. Her spiritual root purity was only 17%, which was less than half of the requirements in the Immortal Slave Manual.

"Yes! It has to be high-end stuff!"

Xia Feng said confidently, "That demon merchant told me that she used to be a fairy from a major sect in the Immortal Realm. Even that demon merchant got her through connections with the city lord."

"..."

If we're just talking about background, then Lin Heng really couldn't tell.

"But what's the meaning of letting her sit in the stroller?" Lin Heng asked, puzzled.

"I learned it from you, Young Master Lin!"

"?"

"I noticed you treat your fairy servants quite well, so I followed suit."

Xia Feng rubbed his hands together and said, "Originally, I wanted to find a grand bridal sedan chair to bring her back, but where in Linxian City can you find one of those now? So I found this little cart to use instead."

"..."

At this moment, the wolf demon delivered the fairy slave.

After Xia Feng tossed him a piece of cucumber tucked into his waistband, the wolf demon caught it and exclaimed gratefully, "Thank you, young master! Thank you, young master!"

In Linxian City today, food has become the third form of currency, in addition to spirit stones and immortal servants.

"Master, my lord... is there anything I can do for you?"

Xia Feng's fairy servant got off the stroller and looked at Xia Feng cautiously.

Her eyes were filled with fear and apprehension, just like most of the fairies who had just become celestial slaves.

Xia Feng waved his hands repeatedly, then pointed to the house next door: "No, no, no, you don't need to do anything... That's my house, you can go and wait for me to cook later."

"what?"

Xiannu was clearly stunned for a moment.

Master, cook for the fairy slave?

She had never heard of such a thing before...

At the same time, Xia Feng leaned over and raised an eyebrow at Lin Heng: "Tsk, Young Master Lin, is that right?"

Lin Heng forced a smile: "...You really have grasped the essence."

"Ha! Maybe when the demonic tide comes, my celestial servant will suddenly be able to use celestial magic!"

As he spoke, Xia Feng quickly walked to Xiannu's side, took her arm, and said solicitously, "Fairy, are you thirsty? I have hot water at home... By the way, what would you like to eat for dinner? I can make it for you..."

Watching the two figures leave, Lin Heng was even somewhat dazed.

He couldn't help but look up and sigh, "Even here there are simps...?"

At this moment, Mu Tinglan came out of the room and said to Lin Heng, "Master, the meal is ready."

Lin Heng also came to his senses: "By the way, how are your injuries healing?"

"Yes, I'm basically healed. My injury wasn't serious to begin with, and besides, my master gave me some resurrection herbs yesterday."

Mu Tinglan nodded gently and said with a smile, "I just went to check on my junior sister's injuries. Thanks to Master's Rejuvenating Grass, she has almost recovered."

Lin Heng glanced at the four spirit arrays in the courtyard, then nodded and said, "Alright, let's go soak in the Immortal Spirit Spring after dinner. I have an important mission for you tonight."

"good!"

……

As it turns out, their injuries did indeed heal quite well.

While soaking in the Immortal Spring, Mu Tinglan and Yun Qinghe no longer felt the awkwardness in their hands and feet that they had experienced in the days immediately following their injuries.

Even after wiping Lin Heng's body, Mu Tinglan went to the next room to find a book.

This was what Lin Heng had Xia Feng exchange for grain at the market these past few days.

However, the spirit stones in the Immortal Spirit Spring had not yet been used up, so after Mu Tinglan re-entered the Immortal Spirit Spring, she lay down on the shore and quietly began to read a book.

Now, she has gradually gotten used to the freedom that Lin Heng gives them, and she enjoys it.

Even in this posture, Lin Heng couldn't help but glance at the book.

To be honest, the print in the book is not only white, but also rather large...

Noticing Lin Heng's gaze, Yun Qinghe pouted and then walked out of the Immortal Spirit Spring.

Where are you going?

Lin Heng's gaze went upwards, following the smooth, slender legs straight up, looking at Yun Qinghe with a puzzled expression.

"Sword dance."

"The spring water isn't finished yet."

"Well, so I've decided to dance in the spring water, just like my senior sister."

"..."

Wait, did she actually go and get the sword?

Lin Heng was about to call her back when Mu Tinglan, who was beside him, turned a page of her book and said with a light laugh, "Junior Sister is trying to attract Master's attention."

"I can tell."

Lin Heng shrugged and leaned back against the shore with ease.

"Although I can guess some of my junior sister's thoughts, please don't take offense, Master. Her sense of being a fairy servant... is actually not as clear as that of an ordinary fairy."

Turning her head, Mu Tinglan smiled gently at Lin Heng, "After all, with her master here, she won't see how cruel the fate of a true immortal slave can be."

"So you're really clear-headed?"

Lin Heng suddenly asked a question.

"Of course."

Mu Tinglan closed the book, blinked her alluring eyes, and slowly said, "From that night on, Tinglan has been prepared, waiting for Master's... rhythm at any time."

Lin Heng paused for a moment, pursed his lips, and then said casually, "There are many things to do right now, we'll talk about it later."

"Yes, Master."

Mu Tinglan nodded, reopened the book, and turned back.

As a normal man, Lin Heng had no reason to refuse Mu Tinglan's proactive advances.

On the contrary, judging from what happened after Lin Heng set Mu Tinglan's desires that night, if Lin Heng actively catered to her, it would be highly likely to increase her loyalty.

The problem is, now all three of them are sleeping in one bed.

If they really started having fun that night, given Yun Qinghe's not-so-malicious jealousy of her senior sister, she might deduct some loyalty points.

Lin Heng sighed.

It seems we'll need to build a few more beds...

……

In the end, Yun Qinghe, who returned with her sword, did not perform a sword dance in the spring.

Lin Heng explained the chemical properties of iron swords rusting when they come into contact with water, leaving Yun Qinghe completely bewildered.

But Yun Qinghe wasn't disappointed, since Lin Heng's gaze was fixed on her when he told her these things.

So much so that when Lin Heng came ashore after soaking in the spring water, he was still somewhat dazed as he stared at the +1 loyalty rating.

How can talking about chemistry increase loyalty?

Upon arriving at the courtyard, Lin Heng arranged two Spirit Suppression Tower formations for Yun Qinghe and Mu Tinglan respectively, injecting restorative immortal power into the formation's core.

The whole process was faster than I had imagined; it probably only took a dozen seconds in total.

But at that moment, some strange people came into the courtyard.

"Young master, young master, please have mercy! I haven't eaten for two days."

These strange figures carrying broken bowls were clearly there to beg.

In fact, this is the third batch to arrive today.

In the days since the destruction of Linxian City, the food reserves of ordinary demon families have been almost exhausted, and now they are indeed out of food.

Thus, Lin Heng's small courtyard, which resembled a granary, had long since attracted their attention...

However, in this degenerate age, and in an environment facing imminent famine, Lin Heng never tries to be a pushover.

So when faced with these demons, Lin Heng's answer was the same as the previous two times: "There are wild fruits on Mount Linxian. If you are hungry, just go up the mountain and find them yourself."

One of the sorcerers complained, "But, but how long will it take to climb the mountain..."

Yun Qinghe said disdainfully, "Without celestial servants to do things for you, you can't even pick fruit?"

Mu Tinglan casually echoed, "Are your hands also shackled like the hands of the fairy slaves?"

"..."

The demons who came to beg were immediately speechless.

Having observed them for so many days, they naturally knew that these two were the fairy servants of Lin Heng's family.

However, these two celestial servants are quite different from the others.

One of them, besides tilling the land, would sit at the door reading a book.

The other one was even more outrageous; you could never see her in the courtyard normally, only in the evening when you could see her practicing swordplay there…

Not only that, they also enjoy a variety of delicious meals every day.

Especially the one who practices swordsmanship; you can often see her going to get more rice from the kitchen window!

These two are hardly celestial servants.

They live a life like fairies!

And they were even inferior to celestial servants...

Thinking of this, a hint of madness flashed in the eyes of the demons.

Since we can't get food, then...

"Get out of my way!"

Suddenly, several soldiers in armor arrived and forcefully drove away the demons at the courtyard gate.

The extremely hungry demon had no strength to resist.

"What a pity."

Lin Heng patted the Spirit Suppressing Tower array beside him. Originally, he wanted to test its power.

However, with so many soldiers suddenly arriving, Lin Heng didn't believe that any unfamiliar official would be so kind as to help him deal with the disturbance to the people...

Looking up, the soldiers who had driven away the demons were now lined up on both sides.

And appearing right in the center was the Snow-Maned Lion Demon with silver-white fur.

"You're Lin Heng from the slums?"
