“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 younger sister is
rather spoiled, which leads to her being unreasonable at times… Here’s a hundred thousand dollar 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 siblings were clearly
too afraid to take it. Instead, the sister simply bowed toward the woman and Gerald before running 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 nod with a smile
before leaving with her valet.
And just like that, the incident was over. After they headed back upstairs, the professor couldn’t help but smile as he
said, “With how similar they look, those two are definitely sisters. However, to think that one is so unruly while the
other so elegant. That aside, it’s a good thing the elder sister could handle that 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 Saint Darkwind.
“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 only cultivating your
inner strength. However, the three of us could see that that woman was cultivating essential qi. That, in itself, is
rather unusual!”
Gerald had to agree. As Walter had previously said, there truly seemed to be many solitary cultivators pretending 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 disappearing while
walking around on the streets. Though he had assumed that those were simply fake news at the time-since he
hadn’t entered the cultivation realm yet back then, Gerald now knew that the disappearing individuals were most
probably cultivators.
“Indeed… It seems that people are getting more and more talented across the generations. After all, I had
assumed that those in the secular world could only cultivate their inner strength. To think that that lass 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 know what Mr.
Crawford is talking about… Since you were brought up in the cultivation realm-till the day you became 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 essential qi different?”
asked the curious Lyndon.
“Well, there are three main variations of essential qi. The first is essential qi from heaven, which is the type of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmessential qi we’re using. You see, the essential qi in our bodies is from heaven and earth, and we 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 Saint Darkwind.
“Moving on to the second type, we commonly refer to it as demon power. The cultivation techniques used to
cultivate this type of essential qi are very different from ours. The beings who use this kind of essential qi are called
demons, and they normally rely on absorbing the masculine aura of commoners to balance out their feminine
auras. This allows them to take the shape of humans. That aside, some powerful demons are even able to absorb
the masculine auras of cultivators when they’re at their peak!” said Gerald.
“The Corpse Demonic Spider is a good example of a Demon that utilizes demonic essential qi. It only takes 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 demonic essential qi. Daryl
is a prime example of this. After all, he killed so many cryptic family heirs just to obtain 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 to ask, “So…
Are you saying that the elegant woman earlier was actually a demon or a devil…?”
