Unconscious Breakthrough

Right after the threat was neutralized, Liu Ying unactivated her phantasmal weapon. At the same time, the guards who came right at the moment bound the thieves with ropes.

"Pardon me, masters, are you the ones who apprehend these filths. They have been plundering the district goods in succession causing troubles to the whole district!" The old man asked the mysterious duo. His eyes were filled with disdain towards the thieves.

For months the thieves would come to steal new-made goods causing discord to the place. Moreover, he already hired a few gold-spirit cultivators but still, they weren't enough. The thieves coordinately plunder in groups! Vendors of the district were left helpless. Their budget couldn't afford to hire master cultivators. As the one responsible for peace and order of the district, the only thing the old man could do was relay the incident to the royal palace. However, until now, there was still no response.

On the other hand, Lin Mei couldn't sense the spiritual strength of the old man. It's either his strong enough to hide his power or he must be a common wealthy man of the city. Nevertheless, she already prepared her answer.

Moving her lips behind her white veil, she said politely. "My companion and I are just passing by as we heard the commotion, we were glad to be of help, My lord."

The old man was taken aback by Lin Mei's answers. After working as a captain of the district watch for more than 20 years. All the cultivators he knew had an air of arrogance around them when talking to a normal personage like him. Some would even ask for an expensive reward to the little things they have done. However, the ones in front of him were respectful enough that relieved his anxious heart. To non-spirit cultivators like him, life has always been tough as they stand at the bottom of the food chain.

Sighing, the old man bowed to the two.

"This humble one is the most grateful, if young masters didn't mind, this old man will treat you for a meal!"

Lin Mei could only smile behind the veil, she would love to accompany the old man but they still have some things to do. "I would have to take your offer for another time, My lord." Lin Mei said as she turned her attention to the unconscious thieves before continuing. "What will happen to them?"

The old man was a little bit disappointed and he knew there was nothing he can do against powerful cultivators. For the common people, they knew cultivators always have monstrous ally behind their backs especially those who were within a sect. In this case, it became a common rule not to provoke cultivators. Nevertheless, he felt obliged to answer Lin Mei's question.

"They will be sent to the dungeons and await the royal decree. There's a huge chance that they will be hanged at the city square."

Lin Mei looked at the unconscious boy before turning around and walking away.

"A shame…"

Meanwhile,

Blue Lake Pavilion,

"Ufufu!" Hui Lian giggled while sitting a top of the topless unconscious Xiao Hu.

Compared to Lin Mei's Psionic Abilities and Witchcraft,

the Martial Arts Skill, Master Hunter Abilities, and Bowmastery of Liu Ying's.

Hui Lian, on the other hand, had Master Surgeon Abilities and Biomaterial Appraisal Ability.

When her sisters left, Hui Lian started performing a medical diagnosis on Xiao Hu's body.

However, she discovered that her master's body was functioning normally. Yet, her master was still in a coma.

Hui Lian needed further analysis. Thus, she used one of her own innate ability, the Master Surgeon Eyes. Hui Lian started to see weird light faintly glowing within Xiao Hu's acupoints.

Amazed, Hui Lian remembered what her little sister had told. They were able to materialize through the used of cultivated 'spirit energy'. In other words, it was some sort of 'magical energy'. The thing that defies her modern knowledge. It was without any scientific explanation. However, she felt the magical energy flowing within her body. She was able to control it with ease as she was able to summon her phantasmal weapon.

The only thing she needed was to believe in it.

Combining her modern knowledge and the matter of spirit energy. She concluded that these acupoints needed to lighten up.

One by one she pressed her finger on Xiao Hu's acupoints and injected her own spirit energy until it lightens up.

Unknowingly, Hui Lian started unlocking all of Xiao Hu's unawakened meridians(Spirit Roots)!

Moments had passed!

'I wonder if master would wake up.' Hui Lian thought. She was completely exhausted and her form was fading away. While her consciousness was being drained back into Xiao Hu's spirit core, Hui Lian pressed on the last remaining unlightened acupoint.

PUTONG!!

Just like that, Xiao Hu reached the Master Spirit Realm.

At the same time, within Xiao Hu's spirit core(dantian) a woman materialized. One could tell she was quite cute having a prestigious white hair and beautiful red eyes.

Regaining her consciousness, she smirked.

"I guess those bitches made it!"
