Trying not to contact Lan Xuan? It's only been a short time. Why did you bring him home again? The reason She Jinxing thought this was because Shang Lin hadn't mentioned what happened last night.

Of course, this wasn't because Shang Lin wanted to deliberately hide it, but because he felt that it was fine for him to have contact with Mo Rong, but the other disciples should avoid it as well.

If that person is truly a fallen god, with the current strength of their Yuntai Sect, they cannot afford to provoke him. After all, Mo Rong has already admitted to the matter of the dream, and they have no choice but to be cautious.

As soon as Lan Xuan saw She Jinxing, he immediately greeted her, "Hello."

"Hello." She Jinxing snapped out of his daze in a second, but asked directly, "What brings you here today?"

Lan Xuan glanced at Shang Lin and smiled awkwardly but politely, "I just wanted to trouble Sect Master Shang to refine the Soul-Stabilizing Pill."

Shang Lin smiled helplessly, "Are you just running errands for someone else?"

Lan Xuan continued with an awkward laugh, "Nothing can be hidden from Sect Master Shang, but I have no choice. Isn't he my current leader? He spoke up, so I have to make this trip no matter what."

"I understand, I understand." After saying that, Shang Lin spoke frankly, "But I'm really not just trying to appease your leader. I really don't have time. This semester, the classes were divided, and all the students in my class are among the top in the academic year. I feel a lot of pressure. If he's willing to wait, the earliest he can do it is the May Day holiday."

Lan Xuan, who had also been through high school, naturally understood that Shang Lin's words were more real than pearls, so he could only say, "I know. If Sect Master Shang has any, you can sell us two first."

Shang Lin spoke frankly, "As you know, there are only two ghost cultivators in our Yuntai Sect who need Soul-Stabilizing Pills. One is Ji Xiaoyao, and the other is Xing Tian. Ji Xiaoyao has basically left the sect now, and Xing Tian only needs them occasionally. So I refine very few Soul-Stabilizing Pills. I'm giving you the last one."

Lan Xuan gave an awkward laugh, "Sorry to bother you."

"Wait a minute." Shang Lin hurriedly called out to Lan Xuan, who was about to leave as soon as he finished speaking, "Since you're already here, let's eat before you go."

"No, no, no." Lan Xuan refused instantly. "Although the New Year is over, our work is even more demanding. I have to go back as soon as possible. We can have dinner together another time."

"Alright then, goodbye." What else could Shang Lin say? He could only let them go.

If the events in the dream were to occur in this city, then Lan Xuan and his team would indeed have a heavier workload, because apart from their office, there are no other relevant departments capable of managing this matter.

No, it should be said that even if relevant departments get involved, they will eventually find their offices. At most, it will be like the joint action of multiple departments and sects that happened in the Northwest last year.

The situation has clearly not yet developed to the point where a joint operation involving multiple departments and sects is taking place; the things in the sewers may not yet have caused harm to ordinary humans.

Of course, it's also possible that Mo Rong has kept those things within a reasonable range, which is why they can't cause any trouble.

Lan Xuan left as soon as he said he would; before he could even finish saying "goodbye," he was already gone, without wasting a single moment.

Shang Lin immediately went to wash his hands and then returned to the dining table to eat. However, before he could even pick up his chopsticks, he saw She Jinxing's puzzled and inquisitive gaze.

Shang Lin reluctantly conceded, "I'm hungry, I want to eat. Ask me whatever you want, but stop staring at me."

She Jinxing was both amused and exasperated. "I'm just wondering, when did the Sect Master have any contact with that new director? Was it in the dream before?"

"No, last night."

She Jinxing's hand, which was reaching for the chopsticks, immediately stopped. "When the sect leader gets out of school tonight?!"

"Um."

She Jinxing immediately became anxious, "Then why didn't the sect leader say anything when he came back? What if that person..."

Shang Lin immediately interrupted She Jinxing, "There's no such thing as 'what if'. If there were, Mo Rong wouldn't have come to the school gate with Lan Xuan to find me. Besides, he didn't come to find me for anything else, just to refine pills."

She Jinxing was taken aback. "The Soul-Stabilizing Pill that Lan Xuan mentioned?!"

"Um."

"Is that all?" She Jinxing asked, puzzled. "How could someone who can be the head of the Underworld Office be an ordinary ghost? Just look at Situ Pojun. He looks no different from an ordinary human. If he's not, why does he need the Soul-Stabilizing Pill? Could it be that he's using it as an excuse to get close to the sect leader?"

Shang Lin replied in a particularly Zen-like manner, "How would I know? Anyway, he already knows I exist, so I can only deal with it as it comes. What else can I do?"

"Then... regarding what happened in your previous dream, can the sect leader confirm that it was him?"

"cannot."

Shang Lin's words were true. Although Mo Rong had mentioned it, he had been vague in his explanation. Apart from the events in the dream, he had no other contact with the other party.

But to avoid making She Jinxing overthink things, Shang Lin added, "Anyway, it's only a matter of time before Mo Rong finds out about us. We can't just stop doing anything to avoid having any contact with him."

"Yes, Sect Master is right."

Because Old Man Chai was not home and Xing Tian had gone back to work, She Jinxing did not return to the Dragon Spirit Tower to rest at night. Therefore, the responsibility of taking care of the child was entirely handed over to the God.

During the day it's fine, Xiaobai can play by itself, but at night it gets a bit... noisy. This is similar to some human infants and toddlers.

Perhaps because it was frightened by Shang Lin before, it had been playing with She Jinxing in its original form and sleeping in his original form at night. So, suddenly without She Jinxing's company, Xiaobai was very uncomfortable.

At first, the God could use his Heart-Protecting Qilin to coax her, but the Heart-Protecting Qilin was only a small piece, which was negligible compared to She Jinxing's original form.

The only thing that attracted Xiaobai was the faint aura of the ancient dragon on it. So it gradually became less effective, although it could still be very useful during the day.

So tonight, the Divine Lord had no choice but to leave the tower and switch shifts with She Jinxing. But She Jinxing said, "It's not appropriate for the Divine Lord to stay outside the tower. Let Red Scorpion come back to keep the Sect Master company."

Shang Lin looked at the two powerful demons in front of him, one of whom was a former powerful demon, and said, "Am I a child? Do I need someone to stay with me at home at night? You should both go back to the Dragon Spirit Tower. Even if something happens, you will be by my side. It's just a difference between inside and outside the tower."

If She Jinxing didn't know that Mo Rong had already contacted Shang Lin, he would definitely have agreed. However, the Yuntai Sect's consistent principle is that one should not have the heart to harm others, but one must be wary of others.
