"These are all captured humans who later surrendered to our race. They are responsible for creating everything here, including the food, clothing, and items you haven't seen before; it all comes from the Human Race."

Traitors?!

Chen Xuan's mind instantly conjured up these two words.

No wonder this place is almost identical to the Human Race's cities; this is the reason.

Perhaps because he knew his injuries had healed, or maybe because the current 'Jiang Tian' gave her a different feeling, Shi Lin frequently spoke to him along the way, introducing him to the Royal City.

Of course, everyone they encountered along the way treated Shi Lin with great respect.

After more than half an hour, the two stopped in front of a luxurious mansion.

Jiang Mansion!

Chen Xuan looked at the three large characters on the plaque, exuding a sharp aura, clearly made by a master.

"It seems the humans who surrendered to the Stone Race are not simple!"

"Greetings, Young Miss!"

The guards on both sides of the gate knelt on one knee and shouted in unison.

"Rise!"

Shi Lin said indifferently, then pointed to Chen Xuan behind her, "Remember him, Jiang Tian! He may freely enter and exit the Prince's Mansion without obstruction from now on!"

"Yes, Young Miss!"

The leading stone race burly man immediately replied, and his gaze fell on Chen Xuan's face.

"Is he the one chosen by the Young Miss?"

"A low surname... will rise to fame in the future."

His eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of envy; as a member of the Zhang surname, one of the top three surnames, he had secured the position of minor guard leader at the Jiang Mansion through connections.

How could he not be envious!

"Come with me!"

Shi Lin said leisurely and then walked into the Prince's Mansion.

Chen Xuan calmly followed amidst the envy of these guards.

The layout of Jiang Mansion is not complex, with a grand hall in the center and four courtyards surrounding it.

However, these four courtyards are quite large, each with its own garden.

And Shi Lin enjoys one courtyard all to herself.

"You'll be staying in Lin Garden from now on."

Chen Xuan looked at the garden before him, with rockeries, small bridges, flowing water, and some rare flowers and plants, all arranged in an artistic manner.

This is simply worlds apart from the place he previously stayed.

"This is what truly suits humans."

The two walked through the garden and then saw the rooms inside.

"You'll be staying in the room furthest to the left!"

Chen Xuan followed the direction of her finger and nodded, "Understood!"

"Xiaomei!"

Shi Lin gently called out.

A moment later, a servant girl hurriedly ran over.

Chen Xuan's expression slightly condensed when he saw the servant girl because she was from the Human Race!

"If you need anything, you can find her. She's from the Human Race, so you can probably tell; compared to our race, the Human Race is much better at serving others."

"I will take my leave now!"

Shi Lin briefly instructed and prepared to leave; there is only one month left until they enter the Holy Land, and she needs to prepare well.

So she will almost entirely spend this time at the Third Ancestor's place.

However, just a few steps away, she stopped and turned around, saying, "You may enter and exit the Prince's Mansion, but within the Prince's Mansion, you must stay in Lin Garden only, is that understood?"

"Hmm!"

Chen Xuan replied with a single word, treasuring his words like gold.

Shi Lin slightly nodded, but seeing Chen Xuan's indifferent demeanor, a trace of agitation flashed in her eyes.

After she left.

Xiaomei slightly bowed her head and softly said, "Master, I'll go and prepare the room now. Please wait a moment!"

"Go ahead!"

"I might as well take a look!"

Having said that, Chen Xuan walked away without concern.

Xiaomei raised her head with a hint of puzzlement.

"Who is he?"

This is the first time the Young Miss has brought a man to Lin Garden.

But in the next moment, she quickly went to organize the room; she, a Human Race member, was the lowest of the low, fortunately, the Young Miss is decent, and under normal circumstances wouldn't make things difficult for her.

Chen Xuan arrived at the garden.

He stood on a small bridge, gazing down at the stream.

He was lost in thought.

Unexpectedly, the Stone Race has humans who surrendered, and there's not a sliver of news about the Mother Liquid right now.

The key issue is that he only has one month.

"What should I do?"

He rubbed his brow. It was truly a headache.

After a long time.

Having tidied up the room, Xiaomei approached, softly saying, "Master, the room is ready!"

Chen Xuan slightly nodded, then turned and asked, "Are there many Humans in the Prince's Mansion?"

"In response to the master, only the Young Miss's place has Humans; not in other areas!"

"So you were born among the Stone Race?"

"Yes!"

No wonder!

Chen Xuan couldn't sense a hint of Human Race aura from her.

"By the way, does the Young Miss usually not return?"

"That, I don't know!"

Clearly, she dared not reveal information about Shi Lin, then diverted the topic, asking, "Does the master prefer Stone Race food or Human Race dishes?"

"Human Race ones!"

"Alright, I'll go prepare then."

Stone Race food?

He wouldn't touch it; if not for ingesting pills these days, his stomach would've been on the verge of collapse.

But just as Xiaomei was about to leave, Chen Xuan called her back, "No rush, you can do that later. Can you introduce this place to me?"

This time, she didn't refuse.

Then began introducing it to Chen Xuan.

"This is the Young Miss's room; without her permission, you cannot enter."

"Over here is her cultivation room!"

"As for this, it's the Young Miss's study; when she's not cultivating, she reads here."

The study?

Chen Xuan's interest was piqued, and he asked, "Can I take a look inside?"

"That's allowed!"

Shi Lin said he could move freely here, of course not inside her room. Xiaomei, well aware of Shi Lin's temperament, knew this even without her explicit instructions.
