The Fallen Consort

Seeing Yi Ling's reaction. Mu Xin looked at Linyu. Linyu nodded and stretched his hand out.

Vines came out of his hand and stretched all the way into the ground. The ground shook as it transformed itself into a much better looking garden. The vines threw all the rocks out, tilled the soil and piled it uniformly.

"This garden hasn't been used before. So you're the first one. I didn't had the reason to do anything with it". His past master wasn't able to see the Blue Rose Palace in time, he added in his mind. Linyu sighed.

Yi Ling was happy though, she finally had a garden of her own. "That's alright, there's always a first on everything." she smiled.

Mu Xin didn't say anything. It was enough for him to be able to see her happy.

------

1 month passed.

During this time, Yi Ling would stay inside the Blue Rose Palace. During the day, to cultivate and study the book that Mu Xin gave to her. Since it was the only place that had spiritual energy to cultivate as well. At night, she would come back out to eat and rest. Tefei would always have a ready raw meat for her to cook, she didn't have to hunt anymore. She didn't have to eat that much, this is due to the spiritual energy inside her. Yi Ling wasn't able to make a contract with Tefei too. He always leaves when she got back. This puzzled her. She asked Mu Xin about it and he only said that Tefei was undergoing Puberty. When she heard this, her mouth couldn't help but twitched.

Mu Xin was always beside her, no matter where she goes inside the Palace. The main hall was the prettiest, There was only one throne in there. It was made of sapphire jade, of course. He said that since she was the master of this place, then that would be her throne. Yi Ling scratched her head. Why do I need a throne though? She thought but didn't voice it out.

Aside from the east courtyard and the main hall, she wasn't allowed in the west courtyard. Mu Xin explained that it wasn't time. He was still hiding a lot of things from her after all.

Linyu on the other hand took care of the gardens all over the palace, as well as feeding the fishes in the pond. Linyu said that unlike Mu Xin, she will be able to call him out of this place anytime she wants him to come out. He also stated the different uses of his leaves.

Green is for healing purposes, if she added it with other healing spiritual herbs. It will fasten the healing process.

Silver is for Qi cultivation while Pink is for the Soul Cultivation, Yellow is a Potent Poison, Red for Vitality and Blue is for Spiritual Beast's cultivation.

"You have to mix it with other spiritual herbs, taking it by itself will make someone explode. My leaves are only for giving you a double result compared to regular spiritual herbs. The effects will depend on which spiritual herbs you mixed it with." He explained and couldn't help but rubbed his nose.

They we're at the medical garden, Yi Ling was helping Linyu plant some herbs that she got in the Abyss. Though it wasn't much, she could start with it. Mu Xin said he didn't like gardening so he went back to his courtyard. It was only them at the moment. She smiled at Linyu.

"That's more than enough. Thanks Yu'er !" She smiled. Linyu smiled back.

"Yu'er , How long have you been guarding this place?" Yi Ling was a curious cat as ever.

"I don't remember." He honestly said.

"It's hard to tell, I'm mostly sleeping. My old master hasn't had the time for me much." Remembering the past, he tightly clinched his fist inside his sleeve.

"How 'bout Mu Xin? Has he always been here with you?"

"No, He arrived only a million years ago."

Yi Ling was astounded, Mu Xin was really old then. She sighed, she had the vogue thought about it but wasn't able to confirm with Mu Xin. He always says that when she get stronger, she will eventually know everything about him.

"My old master got him here", he said.

"Why?" Yi Ling's brows lifted up.

"It's his punishment."

"Why is he being punished?"

He shrugged his shoulders. Not elaborating anything. Yi Ling was now more curious, what did Mu Xin do? To be able to trap a very powerful Deity inside a Ring, His past master must've been really strong. She thought.
