Inside the Immortal Mansion, it was as if time stood still. Everything was exactly as it was when Fang Qingyuan had left.
The only thing that had changed was the Bee Queen's plump belly. She had eaten more than ten pounds of Golden Jade Flower Honey and was now lying comfortably in her little nest, looking utterly content.
When Fang Qingyuan entered, the Bee Queen wriggled over to his side and spoke using her Mind Divine Technique:
"Master, what are we going to do next? Should I continue laying eggs?"
Hearing this voice in his mind, Fang Qingyuan felt a slight sense of dissonance. He had always treated the Bee Queen as a mere tool. Ever since he had brought her from the sect, nurtured her from a tiny egg into an adult, and raised her to her current state, Fang Qingyuan realized that, without noticing it, he had developed some affection for her.
