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

The successor of an ancient sect?!

Upon hearing Cao He's words, Yun Qinghe and Mu Tinglan couldn't help but look at each other.

In the past, many rogue immortals dreamed of becoming disciples of the Yunling Sect in order to obtain better cultivation resources.

No wandering immortal would ever dream of entering an ancient sect.

After all, the ancient sects of the Immortal Realm do not fight tooth and nail for resources like the Yunling Sect.

They possess the powerful source of the five elements and are a force independent of any sect or family.

It is said that the world rules at the very beginning of the Immortal Realm were constructed by the immortal ancestors of ancient sects...

Yun Qinghe and Mu Tinglan were both disciples of the Yunling Sect Master, so they knew very well that compared to ancient sects, the Yunling Sect was like a local bully in a small town compared to the capital city's general administration.

The reason why the Yunling Sect is still considered powerful in the Immortal Realm is because their sect leader has some connection with an ancient sect...

"She certainly seems to be an extraordinary fairy."

Lin Heng had never met any ancient sects, but he had often heard Mu Tinglan and Yun Qinghe mention them.

Even the most favored women like them look up to them; their background must be extraordinary.

If we follow the pattern he uses for fairies in the Immortal Slave Manual, then fairies from ancient sects would most likely be able to meet the manual's stringent requirements...

Lin Heng made no attempt to hide his interest in the fairy, so Cao He continued, "But that fairy is different from other fairies, even in the current Demon Calendar. If you're interested, you'll have to go see her for yourself."

Where is she?

Lin Heng asked directly.

Cao He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "In my city lord's mansion, there is a special place."

Lin Heng smiled and glanced at the soldiers around him: "So you brought so many people here today just to invite me to the City Lord's Mansion?"

"It's also for my own safety."

Cao He said it casually.

"Master, this might be a trap."

At this moment, Yun Qinghe stepped forward and urgently reminded Lin Heng, "Maybe there isn't any fairy from an ancient sect there at all. He just wants to lure you away from the tower formation."

Lin Heng remained silent.

He certainly knew the threat that the Spirit Suppressing Tower Formation posed to Cao He and the others, and what Yun Qinghe said was definitely one of their objectives.

However, Lin Heng did not believe that what Cao He was talking about was a fairy from an ancient sect, but merely a bait he had made up.

The reason why bait can lure people is because the bait itself is real, rather than fabricated out of thin air.

Besides, he had originally wanted to find an opportunity to visit the city lord's mansion...

"Alright! Since you've come to invite me in person, I'll go."

As he spoke, Lin Heng casually stretched, as if he was ready to set off at any moment.

"Owner?"

Yun Qinghe stared at Lin Heng with a somewhat unfamiliar expression, momentarily stunned.

In her eyes, Lin Heng wouldn't fall for such a simple trick...

"Um?"

But at that moment, Yun Qinghe's anxious expression, with her forehead tightly furrowed, caught Cao He's attention.

That anxious expression... he felt like he'd seen it somewhere before.

What was it about that gave him this sense of familiarity...?

and many more!

Suddenly, Cao He's gaze was fixed on the immortal mark on Yun Qinghe's forehead.

Yes, I saw it in the basement of the city lord's mansion!

These past few days, Cao He has been negotiating with the fairy from the ancient sect in the underground chamber.

He had almost memorized the entire environment of the basement.

He clearly remembered that on the stone wall of the underground chamber, there was a portrait of a fairy.

The fairy in the painting has the same fairy markings as her...

Could the person in that portrait be her?

Does she know that fairy from that ancient sect?

Cao He shook his head, dismissing the guess.

Because that fairy from an ancient sect grew up in an underground chamber since childhood.

The biggest difference between her and other fairies, besides retaining her own immortal power, is that she has never been in contact with the immortal realm that still exists in the ancient immortal era...

"Since you brought so many people with you for safety reasons, I can't go to your place empty-handed either. We're both doing this for safety."

At this moment, Lin Heng looked at Cao He with a smile, and at the same time winked at Mu Tinglan and Yun Qinghe.

Cao He said calmly, "Okay, I'll wait for you here."

Lin Heng nodded and then led his men toward the courtyard.

The snow-maned lion demon leaned closer and whispered, "Lord Cao He, he has clearly come up with some ways to guard against us..."

"Let him guard against it."

Cao He looked ahead with relief and said, "No matter how careful he is, he will never expect that she is a fairy who still retains her immortal power."

……

When she walked back to the courtyard, Yun Qinghe, with her brows furrowed, was noticeably a beat slower.

She caught up with Lin Heng and said anxiously, "Master..."

"Don't worry, junior sister, the master isn't being fooled."

Mu Tinglan gave Yun Qinghe a reassuring and gentle look, and said with a smile, "Our master may have already had the idea of ​​going to the City Lord's Mansion."

When Cao He clearly had premeditated something, she just stood quietly to the side and didn't say anything.

Because she remembered that Lin Heng had asked her to draw a topographical map of the city lord's mansion not long ago.

Therefore, it wasn't hard for Mu Tinglan to guess that Lin Heng's seemingly reckless attitude just now meant that he had been wanting to go to the City Lord's Mansion for a long time.

At this moment, Lin Heng nodded and said, "Yes, but their intention to kill me is definitely real, so I'll go back and get some spiritual herbs to carry with me."

He had not forgotten the miraculous role his two spiritual herbs played during the last demonic tide.

Even Yun Qinghe's life was saved by that resurrection herb...

"I see."

Yun Qinghe nodded gently and said with a firm gaze, "Moreover, my senior sister and I both have immortal power restored by the Immortal Spirit Spring, which is enough to deal with him."

She actually understood the reasoning behind it.

However, the frown on her brow when she left had another reason.

Because she discovered that the city lord of Linxian City was staring intently at her immortal markings!

She had heard Mu Tinglan mention that the people in the City Lord's Mansion almost all had a morbid way of venting their frustrations on the immortal slaves.

One thing that left a deep impression on her was something about fairy markings.

One evening, a steward in the city lord's mansion discovered that a fairy who was about to become a celestial slave had very beautiful fairy markings.

So, naturally, the butler took the fairy to the pleasure room.

The next day, when Mu Tinglan saw the fairy again, he not only found that her forehead was chafed and the fairy markings were no longer visible...

"Take these medicinal herbs with you."

Upon arriving at the warehouse in the courtyard, Lin Heng pointed out a few spiritual herbs and gestured for them to carry them with them.

"Yes, Master."

Mu Tinglan bent down and put the wooden box containing the spiritual herbs into her bosom.

Yun Qinghe stood still, gently biting her lip.

Could that despicable city lord also have the same morbid thoughts about her fairy markings?

One's own immortal markings are not something anyone else can touch...

Anyone who touches it will be killed!

"Only you can use the Gathering Essence Grass, take a box with you."

At this moment, Lin Heng reminded her from the side.

"...Yes, Master."

Yun Qinghe came to her senses and took the Gathering Yuan Grass in front of her.

But when she turned around again, she accidentally bumped her forehead lightly against Lin Heng's chin.

"Ouch."

Yun Qinghe rubbed her forehead in slight pain, but knowing she had been daydreaming, she immediately apologized to Lin Heng, saying, "I'm sorry, Master..."

Lin Heng rolled her eyes at her: "We're going out to do serious business, don't be reckless."

You should know that this trip to the City Lord's Mansion was to retrieve the Thousand Branches Vine Sword for her!

He now seriously doubts whether the creature described in the Immortal Slave Manual as a divine weapon is actually Yun Qinghe's personal weapon...

At this moment, Yun Qinghe and Lin Heng both paused for a moment.

[Master, it seems like my immortal markings were just touched... No, no, I can't kill you! It touched... well, it touched.]

[Immortal Slave Yun Qinghe's Loyalty +2]

Wait, how come bumping into someone suddenly increases loyalty by two points?

……

Not long after, Lin Heng and the other two returned and met up with Cao He and the others.

He waved his hand casually and greeted them familiarly: "We're ready. You lead the way... Soldiers behind, turn around and become front row."

"..."

Cao He's eyelids twitched involuntarily.

It was clearly his meticulously planned scheme, yet Lin Heng's words sounded as if they were directed at him:

I know you're trying to lure me to your wife's bedroom, but I know your wife's bedroom better than you do...
