Jiang Sisi, who was treating Yuan Jinsheng, glanced at the two children and saw that they were chatting happily. She then pretended not to exist and continued to use the Azure Lotus Sect's unique healing techniques to heal Yuan Jingsheng.

Shen Yingzi introduced her musical score to Lin Xiao, but as she spoke, she seemed to feel unsatisfied, and hesitated as she held the bamboo flute in her hand.

Seeing through his thoughts, Lin Xiao smiled and said:

Are you trying to brag?

Lin Xiao understood all too well that look on the face when talking about one's hobbies—wanting to show off all one's achievements but also hesitating a bit.

He's always been like this.

At that time, he didn't have a single friend who was willing to take the time to accept his presentation.

Having been seen through, Shen Yingzi nodded somewhat embarrassedly, but her eyes shone brightly as she looked at Lin Xiao.

"My dad... he loves to hear me play the flute!"

Lin Xiao nodded in complete understanding:

"Keep bragging, maybe your dad won't feel so much pain if he hears it."

So Shen Yingzi held the bamboo flute to her lips, took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and began to play softly.

A gentle flute melody drifted up, seemingly adding a touch of new life to the desolate entrance of the Execution Stone.

The people who had been meditating and regulating their breathing with blank expressions gradually became more joyful as the light flute music played.

Under the combined effects of the medicine and the flute music, the ordinary girls shed their fatigue and fright, and nestled together for a short rest.

Yuan Jinsheng, whose face was contorted with pain from both body and mind, seemed to find solace in the sound of the flute, and his furrowed brows relaxed slightly.

in this way.

About two hours later, Yuan Jinsheng, whose face had been deathly pale and whose breathing was sometimes faint and sometimes heavy and burning, finally stabilized and his breathing returned to normal.

However, the depletion of his Spiritual Power and the damage to his Golden Core core cannot be recovered in such a short time; he will need to recuperate slowly in the future.

Apart from interfering with the Imperial Preceptor with Law Technique and expending a large amount of Spiritual Power to accelerate the exit of the mine, the other cultivators were protected by the Green Jade Lotus and suffered no damage.

Therefore, they had already finished their meditation.

Shen Yingzi had already fallen asleep halfway through the journey, leaning against a rock next to Yuan Jinsheng with his bamboo flute in his arms, and even began to snore softly.

Feeling a bit bored with no one to talk to, Lin Xiao thought of Zhao Yunzhong, the Ruler Zhao, whom he had placed inside the sealing formation.

So they took him out and carried him to Fellow Jiang Sisi Sisi's side so she could take a look at him as well.

The Golden Core cultivators of the surrounding Alliance Army were somewhat surprised to see Lin Xiao suddenly bring Zhao Yunzhong over.

Why is the Ruler Zhao here?

"Could it be to help Fellow Daoist Yuan save his son?"

Lin Xiao guessed that the Ruler Zhao had come for the national seal because he had mentioned sensing something important when he met with Yuan Jinsheng, and based on what happened afterward.

Although he didn't know much about what had happened, based on his analysis, it was very likely that the Ruler Zhao had followed the Imperial Seal all the way here and encountered Yuan Jinsheng and himself.

Then, just then, the former ruler was about to do something to the State Seal, but he failed. As a result, the Ruler Zhao, who was bound to the State Seal by the state, suffered a backlash and was severely injured.

However, this matter concerns the national seal, and since the Ruler Zhao didn't even tell Yuan Jinsheng directly, he must have been even more unwilling to let outsiders know about it.

So Lin Xiao didn't explain much, only giving a vague explanation to everyone:

"After Fellow Daoist Yuan went down, Ruler Zhao was suddenly seriously injured for some reason. I was too busy to take care of him at the time, so I temporarily placed him in the great formation."

Upon hearing this, no one uttered any questions or objections.

After all, this isn't their ruler.

For the sake of friendly diplomacy, just take good care of them and bring them back.

So once Yuan Jinsheng and Zhao Yunzhong were in stable condition, a group of cultivators took the nine mortal women onto a flying Law Artifact and sped towards the city where they lived.

At this moment, the group of girls realized that they had encountered the legendary immortals!

However, because they were surrounded by immortals, and there were so many immortals around them, they didn't dare to be too obviously excited.

It was still that cheerful-looking girl. She mustered her courage and approached Lin Xiao, who seemed to be the closest to them in age and the most approachable, asking with excitement and admiration:

"May I ask where you are from, my celestial being?"

Because of her decent family background, this girl had heard a little about immortals and knew that they each had their own sects.

At this moment, Lin Xiao was engrossed in examining the national seal within his private vault. Upon hearing the question, he closed the vault and smiled politely at the rather bold young woman:

"I am Lin Xiao from the Lingxian Sect of the Pusi Kingdom. May I ask your honorable surname, young lady?"

It is impolite not to reciprocate.

Because of the difference in status between immortals and mortals, and because the other party was a woman, she was cautious in asking questions and couldn't just directly reveal her name.

Therefore, after Lin Xiao answered, he asked the other person a question in return, as a sign of politeness and to indicate that he was willing to exchange titles with the other person.

Although it's not convenient to ask a girl's given name in this era, it's still acceptable to ask her surname.

The girl was clearly delighted to receive his answer; she smiled, revealing two small dimples at the corners of her mouth.

My surname is He, and I'm the third child in my family!

Lin Xiao readily agreed:

"Third Miss He."

Third Miss He curtsied, her movements were proper, yet somehow not quite proper:

"Immortal Lin, can I also cultivate myself into an immortal like you?"

He saw her staring at him with bright eyes and a respectful attitude, but perhaps because he was being friendly, she didn't seem very reserved.

Lin Xiao thought for a moment, then quietly set up a soundproof barrier around them and whispered to her:

"I'm not familiar with other sects, but our Lingxian Sect will be recruiting soon, within the next few years. You can go back and think it over. If you really want to cultivate, you can give it a try."

Upon hearing Lin Xiao's words, He Third Miss He's joy was visibly evident in her expression.

However, Lin Xiao immediately interrupted her joy by saying:

"But you need to think this through carefully; just because you go doesn't guarantee you'll pass the assessment."

However, Third Miss He was not discouraged by his words; she replied with high spirits:

"I will try my best! Immortal, if I am fortunate enough to enter your sect, may I become your disciple!"

The images in my mind suddenly vanished.

Third Miss He opened her eyes again, she saw the canopy of her own boudoir.

She blinked, momentarily unsure whether the scenes in her mind were a dream.

In the end, all she remembered was that handsome young man in fine clothes, who smiled at her.

"We'll talk about it when you get here."

The voice was clear and melodious.

She excitedly hugged the blanket and rolled around on her bed several times.

I'm going to the Lingxian Sect! I want to cultivate immortality!
