Chapter 2426
“Enough! Bring the Second Young Mistress out now!” ordered the woman with a huff.
Once Fae was brought out, the woman helped the siblings up before saying, “I apologize… My youngersister is rather spoiled, which leads to her being unreasonable at times… Here’s a hundred thousanddollar cheque. I hope this’ll be enough as compensation for what my sister has done…”
Shortly after saying that, the woman wrote and presented that cheque for the two, though the siblingswere clearly too afraid to take it. Instead, the sister simply bowed toward the woman and Gerald beforerunning off with her brother.
Upon seeing that, the woman helplessly shook her head before turning to face her valet and saying,“Find out where they live and hand them the cheque.”
With all that done, she finally turned to look at Gerald before adding, “I’m sorry you had to see all that…Did my sister hurt you?”
“She didn’t, though she really needs to be disciplined,” replied Gerald, prompting the woman to nodwith a smile before leaving with her valet.
And just like that, the incident was over. After they headed back upstairs, the professor couldn’t helpbut smile as he said, “With how similar they look, those two are definitely sisters. However, to think thatone is so unruly while the other so elegant. That aside, it’s a good thing the elder sister could handlethat little monster. Otherwise, the siblings would have suffered!”
“Fae’s sister… Isn’t what she appears to be… Haven’t you noticed that Fae feared her?” replied SaintDarkwind.
“Huh? Where’s this coming from, Mr. Darkwind?” asked the confused professor.
Chuckling in response, Saint Darkwind then explained, “Well, you couldn’t sense it since you’re onlycultivating your inner strength. However, the three of us could see that that woman was cultivatingessential qi. That, in itself, is rather unusual!”
Gerald had to agree. As Walter had previously said, there truly seemed to be many solitary cultivatorspretending to be commoners and even having day to day jobs hiding in the secular world…
It reminded the boy of some news he came across years ago, regarding people suddenly disappearingwhile walking around on the streets. Though he had assumed that those were simply fake news at thetime-since he hadn’t entered the cultivation realm yet back then, Gerald now knew that thedisappearing individuals were most probably cultivators.
“Indeed… It seems that people are getting more and more talented across the generations. After all, Ihad assumed that those in the secular world could only cultivate their inner strength. To think that thatlass from earlier was already cultivating essential qi! How rare!” muttered Lyndon.
“I have a feeling that her essential qi is different from ours, ” said Gerald.
Seeing how puzzled Lyndon looked, Saint Darkwind gave an apologetic smile before replying, “I knowwhat Mr. Crawford is talking about… Since you were brought up in the cultivation realm-till the day youbecame the head of the Thunder Sword Sect-, you have seen little of the secular world, Mr. Moldell.With that in mind, it only makes sense for Mr. Crawford to know more about the secular world…”
“Fair enough. It was the only reason why Ryder was able to trick me. Regardless, how is her essentialqi different?” asked the curious Lyndon.
“Well, there are three main variations of essential qi. The first is essential qi from heaven, which is thetype of essential qi we’re using. You see, the essential qi in our bodies is from heaven and earth, andwe use the holy spirits from heaven and earth as the foundation of our cultivation. With that in mind,heaven is our source of power…”
“Fun fact, all the cultivators in the cultivation realm utilize essential qi from heaven,” added SaintDarkwind.novelbin
“Moving on to the second type, we commonly refer to it as demon power. The cultivation techniquesused to cultivate this type of essential qi are very different from ours. The beings who use this kind ofessential qi are called demons, and they normally rely on absorbing the masculine aura of commonersto balance out their feminine auras. This allows them to take the shape of humans. That aside, somepowerful demons are even able to absorb the masculine auras of cultivators when they’re at theirpeak!” said Gerald.
“The Corpse Demonic Spider is a good example of a Demon that utilizes demonic essential qi. It onlytakes that form since it hasn’t fully evolved yet,” explained Saint Darkwind.
“Indeed… Now for the third type, it’s called devilish essential qi, and it’s pretty similar to demonicessential qi. Daryl is a prime example of this. After all, he killed so many cryptic family heirs just toobtain their bloodline spiritual essence in hopes of enhancing his power and becoming a devil!”
After listening to their conversation, Professor Boyle whose interest had been piqued was prompted toask, “So… Are you saying that the elegant woman earlier was actually a demon or a devil…?”
