She walked up to Huo Ling'er and used her spiritual energy to examine his body. Finding that he was not seriously hurt, she asked Shen Feixian about Huo Ling'er's condition.

Shen Feixian was usually busy at home and knew Huo Ling'er's situation quite well.

Shen Feixian said, "He hasn't eaten any of the snacks I bought for him recently and has been sleeping all the time - sleeping in the morning and taking long naps in the afternoon too. Could it be that he's bored from staying at home too long?"

Shen Feixian asked.

Song Jixing didn't think so. Even if a child was bored, he would want to go out and play, not sleep from morning till night.

There must be something wrong.

They were all humans, while Huo Ling'er was different. He was born from a Fire Spirit Stone. To improve his cultivation, he needed Fire Spirit Stones.

Could it be that the lack of spiritual energy in this world was affecting Huo Ling'er's body?

But Song Jixing had no way to help - the spiritual energy in her body wasn't fire-attributed.

Though it seemed that non-fire spiritual energy didn't hinder things.

Song Jixing channeled a small portion of the little spiritual energy left in her body to Huo Ling'er's body in an extremely gentle stream, to see if it would have any effect.

In just a few seconds, Huo Ling'er woke up.

He yawned and sat up from the sofa, "Sister Song, don't waste your spiritual energy! It won't stay in me."

"Have you been sleeping all the time because you lack fire spiritual energy?" Song Jixing asked.

Huo Ling'er nodded honestly, "I am a bit hungry for it, but I can eat regular food to feel full now."

"It's just that..."

"Just what?" Shen Feixian hurriedly asked. He had been the one taking care of Huo Ling'er all this time, so he wanted to keep a closer eye on him.

"The reason Ling'er has been sleeping all the time is not because I lack spiritual energy, but because I've been feeling a bit strange!" Huo Ling'er said, looking confused.

"What do you mean by strange?"

"Ling'er doesn't know. I just feel like sleeping, and sleeping feels really comfortable - I just want to keep sleeping." Huo Ling'er answered truthfully.

A spirit beast uncontrollably feeling drowsy all the time - Song Jixing didn't know much about this. She had never raised a child before, let alone a pet.

If they couldn't figure out the reason after more investigation, she was even considering taking Huo Ling'er to see a doctor.

After hearing this, Shen Feixian stroked his chin as if deep in thought about something. "I do have some ancient records in my mustard seed bag, unfortunately I can't open it now, otherwise I could look into this."

Shen Feixian liked reading and had a large collection of books stored in his mustard seed bag.

A person could only open their own mustard seed space with their magic technique, but Shen Feixian currently couldn't use even a shred of spiritual energy, so he was helpless even if he wanted to open it.

After thinking for a while, Song Jixing said, "Huo Ling'er's increased desire for sleep doesn't necessarily mean something bad. I've heard that living creatures naturally born from heaven and earth can advance in cultivation while asleep, even without absorbing spiritual energy."

Although there was no spiritual energy here for Huo Ling'er to take in.

A thought flashed through Song Jixing's mind, but she didn't grasp anything concrete.

She could only tell Shen Feixian to pay more attention to Huo Ling'er's condition these days and see if he had any discomfort.

Shen Feixian readily agreed.

When Zhang Shuangcheng's martial arts film was about to start shooting, the house Song Jixing rented was also renovated.

Song Jixing specially took a day off to hire a moving company to move most of her belongings to the new place.

The new house had three floors. The first and second floors each had two to three rooms, furnished into bedrooms, study, entertainment room and more according to the owner's preferences. The third floor was a room with a skylight and some storage space.

As a simple and crude person, Song Jixing turned all the rooms into bedrooms.

Compared to the 80-square-foot two-bedroom apartment in the community, with barely any hallway space, the rooms here were extremely spacious.

She could do anything she needed in her own room.

If that didn't work, there was a living room and dining room outside, and a private yard downstairs - she could do whatever she wanted, very spacious.

Actually it was because she was poor...

But poverty breeds ingenuity!

Next to this neighborhood was a large tract of vacant land with a garden, and a greenspace by the lake overgrown with weeds.

After discussing with the landlord, Song Jixing had the construction team clear out all the surrounding greenspace and garden to leave space for planting vegetables.

Whether planting vegetables saved money or not wasn't important. The main thing was she could actually save money by growing her own vegetables.

Secondly, it was about safety.

After moving everything into the house, Song Jixing sent away the moving crew, and went with her fellow sect members to dig trenches row by row in the greenspace, preparing to plant seeds. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NøᴠᴇlFire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

After a busy day, once everything was ready, Song Jixing split her spiritual energy into thin strands and channeled it into the soil, seeping into the seeds.

In an instant, neat rows of green sprouts emerged from the soil, decorating the greenspace.

In the eyes of outsiders, however, the dilapidated housing suddenly became blurred and transparent, as if shrouded in fog so that nothing could be seen - no one wanted to go near.

This was one of the specialties of Qingyun Sect disciples - spell formations.

Although spiritual energy could not remain in their bodies for long, Song Jixing could still use it to stimulate the plants of this world.

She didn't fully understand the intricacies, but as long as it worked, that was enough.

After setting up the formations around the house, Song Jixing also called Yan He over to stay here safely.

Barring accidents, this would become their sect's base from now on.

With everything ready, Song Jixing went on set.

-

For her first time as second male lead, and in a Zhang Shuangcheng film at that, Xu Kai gave Song Jixing endless exhortations to take the role seriously, act well, and get along with the other actors.

Song Jixing nodded in agreement as she flipped through the script for the second male lead, sighing inwardly at how many lines he had compared to her previous shows put together, even though the movie was only two hours long.

Was it because this was her first time as second lead, or first time shooting a movie? Song Jixing felt it was both.

Although the Divine Cauldron had brought Song Jixing much inconvenience, it also had some advantages.

For example, in the action scenes, none of the people present had bodies as flexible and agile as hers, let alone could fight better than her.

For Song Jixing's fight scenes, most passed in one or two takes. If it took two takes, it was definitely because other actors had problems, not her.

Anyone watching would see a promising new martial arts actress on the rise.

Today's scenes were shot on water, with a boat fight between the first and second male leads.

Before starting, Song Jixing's palms grew hot again.

This was not a good sign!

"Action!" The director yelled to start, and all the units began moving.

Song Jixing drew her sword and started the fight scene, every move still done adeptly. But she was somewhat distracted, her eyes not focused on the first male lead.

Zhang Shuangcheng was clearly not very satisfied. "Cut! Stop for a moment, Song Jixing, let me tell you..."

Before he could finish speaking, ripples spread out layer upon layer on the lake surface.

Suddenly, over a hundred wet heads emerged from under the water...

No, not just heads - whole people!

Living people!
