At dinner time, Qin Xuan sent dinner to Ling Huayin and his wife's room, but Du Ye did not come, so Ling Huayin directly asked Qin Xuan about Du Ye's whereabouts.

"Master Du Ye has many things to do. I don't know where you are now. Maybe he is still patrolling in the city." Qin Xuan replied while keeping a polite distance.

"My lords, has he always lived here?" Ling Huayin wanted to get information about Du Ye from Qin Xuan.

But Qin Xuan's answer made her a little disappointed.

"Master Du Ye has been here since I came to this house. Does the girl have any questions?"

"No, thank you." Ling Huayin was a little discouraged when she couldn't find out anything.

Qin Xuan bowed slightly and politely, "Then I'll go down. If you have any orders, girl, just come to me in the front yard."

After Qin Xuan left, Ling Huayin looked at the sumptuous food on the table without moving, so she went directly to the next door and knocked on Situ Yan's door.

"Come in." Situ Yan responded from inside.

Ling Huayin pushed the door open and saw Situ Yan eating wine and meat happily. He treated Ling Huayin as if he were at home. When he saw Ling Huayin, he picked up a pot of wine and called her over.

Ling Huayin sat aside and looked at Situ Yan's contentment. She frowned and said, "Aren't you afraid that there is something wrong with the food? For example, if you eat it, you will be unable to leave here." Ling Huayin remembered the last time she was in Lingyin Village.

, the story Situ Yan told himself.

"I've checked and there's nothing wrong with it. Didn't you eat it?" Situ Yan asked, taking another sip of wine.

Ling Huayin sat silently. Situ Yan glanced at her, smiled, picked up a piece of meat, handed it to Ling Huayin's mouth, and said, "The food here is really delicious, you can try it."

Ling Huayin looked at Situ Yan in surprise, her eyes wide open, as if Situ Yan had done something big and very embarrassed. Situ Yan didn't think there was anything wrong with this move, and he didn't even notice there was any ambiguity.

At that point, he stretched his chopsticks forward and said, "Really, I'm not lying to you, give it a try."

Ling Huayin blushed and opened her mouth slightly, took the meat in her mouth, chewed it, pursed her lips slightly, and said, "It's really good."

"Do you still want to eat? How about I go get your bowls and chopsticks." Situ Yan looked at her with a smile.

Ling Huayin smiled and shook her head, "I won't eat anymore. Since I became a fairy, I rarely eat anymore. You can eat it yourself."

"That's right, your immortal family has so many rules, unlike me, a free and unfettered immortal."

"By the way, E Luo is still in the gourd, so there's no need to call her." Ling Huayin said worriedly.

"Hmm... this phantom realm may have some influence on E Luo. Let's ask Du Ye again when we see him. Since he treats us with courtesy, he should take the initiative to come to us before we see their city lord.

Ours." Situ Yan said and began to taste the food slowly, while Ling Huayin sat aside and watched. Suddenly, she felt that the food of this immortal immortal who did not eat the fireworks of the world was also very eye-catching.

Situ Yan finished eating with satisfaction, wiped his mouth and said, "It's really strange. I always feel that the food here seems like I have eaten it often before, and it particularly suits my taste."

Ling Huayin asked with a smile: "Could it be that the city lord here is really an acquaintance of yours, so he specially entertained us?"

"Maybe. If that's the case, then we really came to the right place on this trip."

The two chatted for a while, and Qin Xuan came over to clean up. By the way, he asked them to move to the front hall, where Du Ye was waiting for them. After the two came to the front hall, they saw that Du Ye had changed into regular clothes and looked much more friendly. Although

Du Ye has already said that he is not Su Yan, but Ling Huayin will still be a little stunned when she sees him again.

Du Ye nodded to them, invited them to take a seat, and said, "I know you two have many questions. The city lord asked me to entertain you. If you have any questions, please ask me."

Ling Huayin glanced at Situ Yan and asked Du Ye, "Does your city lord know any of us?"

Du Ye replied: "I don't know whether you know him or not. I don't ask about the city lord's affairs."

"Then who is your city lord?"

Du Ye's tone was calm, "I just said that I never ask about the city lord's affairs, including his name."

Situ Yan smiled and joked: "Your city lord's hobby is really unusual. You want to entertain us, but you don't reveal who you are, and you have to let us guess. This is really worse than a woman's heart."

Du Ye glanced at him lightly and said nothing.

Ling Huayin asked again: "My friend E Luo has been staying in the gourd since he came here. What's going on?"

"Is this girl's friend a nightmare?"

"Exactly."

Du Ye replied: "That's it. This is a fantasy realm, which is equivalent to your dream in the human world. But the only difference is that this is a space constructed by the spiritual power of many demons. It is difficult for demons like nightmares to

The body is maintained by the spiritual power of the demons, so if your friends don't leave here, they probably won't come out. But please don't worry, the phantom realm will not pose any threat to your friends."

After hearing this, Ling Huayin felt relieved, and then said: "We came to the Fantasy Realm actually to find a person. This person's name is Bai Yi. He was once a disciple of my Xianze Palace. I wonder if you have seen anything suspicious.

Has anyone been here?"

Du Ye thought for a moment and expressed a little regret: "Whenever outsiders come here, I will know it. There is really no suspicious person. However, it is not difficult for you two to find someone in the fantasy world. There is someone in Wuguihai

People who cross the sea can pass through various fantasy realms. I will take you two to see this person tomorrow morning. He may be able to help you."

"This saves a lot of trouble." Situ Yan raised his lips, quite satisfied with his luck.

"I have one more question."

"Girl, please ask."

"About your longevity technique, what exactly is it?" Ling Huayin asked, staring at Du Ye.

Du Ye seemed a little unnatural when she stared at him. He lowered his head and was silent for a moment, and then said: "Actually, the art of immortality is not as long as the gods as people say, but in this city, people's lifespan is forever.

has stopped, people will no longer grow up like normal people, children will always be children, adults will not grow old, although their minds are maturing, their appearance will not change, so some of the people you see in the city

They have lived for more than a hundred years, but they still look like children of several years old."

"Won't grow up? This is the first time I've heard of this. Then before you obtained the immortality technique, were there no old people in this city?" Situ Yan asked.

Du Ye said: "There were old people before, but they left here after they obtained the art of immortality in this city. The price of leaving here was the rapid disappearance of life. Many people died of old age before they even reached the hillside outside the city.

On the way. Even so, for people who have suffered from diseases all year round, the city lord’s immortality technique is salvation, so most people in the city accepted it.”

"Although it means immortality, the price is too heavy. Instead of saving people, you, the city lord, are depriving people of their freedom." Ling Huayin was very emotional and did not agree with the city lord's approach.

Du Ye hurriedly explained: "Young lady, I think you have misunderstood our city lord. Before teaching the citizens the art of immortality, our city lord has already given them the opportunity to choose. Whether to go or stay, whether to continue to survive or to gain eternal life depends on the decision."

They make their own decisions, but human greed and desire are never-ending. Once there is something good in front of them, they will rush to grab it. Almost all the young people in this city have accepted the city lord's immortality technique, and only a few old people have

People would rather die in pain."

While Situ Yan was thinking, he began to rub the thumb and middle finger of his right hand again. Ling Huayin discovered not long ago that he would make this habitual movement when he was thinking about something.

Situ Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "What kind of disease do the people in the city have? Isn't there a doctor to treat it?"

Du Ye replied: "The skin will crack and suppurate when exposed to sunlight. No one can tell what the disease is, but the disease comes quickly. Many people are born with the disease, and most of them die before the age of 30.

, so there are very few old people.”

Ling Huayin stared at Du Ye's face that was exactly the same as Su Yan's, and couldn't help but ask: "What about you? How old are you? Have you also accepted the art of immortality?"

Du Ye replied without any secret: "I did accept the city lord's technique of immortality. In terms of age, I should be over a hundred years old."

Ling Huayin looked like she was asking the question, "Have you never been to any other place before accepting the art of immortality?"

Du Ye looked at her strangely and said, "I have never left here."

Ling Huayin was a little disappointed. Situ Yan glanced at her and said to Du Ye, "Can you tell us what kind of magic this immortality spell is?"

Du Ye was silent for a moment and then said faintly: "It is said that the art of immortality is actually to borrow other people's bodies and attach your own soul that is about to dissipate into other people's bodies, so that your soul can stay in the world and no longer enter the cycle of reincarnation.

This will give you a long life.”

After hearing this, Ling Huayin was shocked and asked quickly: "What about the soul of that person?"

"The soul of the original person will naturally dissipate, but because of this, he cannot enter the well of reincarnation and becomes a lonely soul scattered in the world. And once the people who have obtained the art of immortality die, their souls will also become the same lonely souls, unable to

Entering reincarnation again." Du Ye stated.

"What you are doing is simply ridiculous!" Ling Huayin did not expect that this so-called art of immortality would be so contrary to heaven.

Situ Yan said nothing, but his frown deepened.

Du Ye continued: "However, there are conditions for usable bodies. Most of the people brought by the city lord voluntarily offer their bodies, and they must be similar in age to himself in order to complete a soul exchange."

Ling Huayin couldn't help but sneer, "What about those children? They haven't seen the whole world and are not even fully sensible yet. Are they willing to be deprived of their right to live by you?"

"This is not without inducement. As long as the adults agree, the children will be obedient. In their eyes, this is just an exchange of goods. Because those who agree to sacrifice their lives are sinners." Du Ye suddenly

said coldly.

Situ Yan suddenly raised his eyes and saw that Ling Huayin was a little angry and said, "What crime have they committed that even children are implicated?"
