Chapter 7

“Hmm? Why is the Spirit Qi so dense in here?” the silhouette asked in a hushed voice, seemingly confused.
Under the moonlight, one could see a deathly pale male with a pair of bat wings sprouting from his back. He looked just like the rumored vampires.
He noticed the unusually high concentration of Spirit Qi in this house, and it made him slightly uncertain.
2As an Awakened, he was much sensitive towards Spirit Qi compared to the unenlightened. While ordinary men might at most feel relaxed and soothed living in such an environment, he could go a step further and tell that the concentration of Spirit Qi was above average on this plot of land.
Could it be due to some peculiarities of the terrain? thought the man silently to himself. Ever since he became a part of the Awakened, he was imparted much knowledge that the past him would not even dare to contemplate. It once mentioned that across the mountains and valleys, there existed specific landforms that might lead to the gathering of spiritual energies. Just that such formations were rare and few between, and they were all blessed enclaves. It was currently impossible for anyone to occupy them.
“Great timing. After I finish this guy off, I could make here my hideout. By then, I’ll be able to cultivate a lot faster and become a level four Awakened. This place is too comfortable!” sighed the man softly. Merely standing in such an environment was enough for his body to open up its pores and automatically absorb the Spirit Qi.
1Most of the cultivators and the Awakened were but newborns. They were not powerful enough to go up against firearms, and the country still trumped everything. If they dared show any inkling of rebellion, they would be immediately be rounded up and executed.
“I should deal with this first!” Lu Xuan picked up the body and jumped out from the window. Even from a height of over 20 stories, he could easily climb down without alarming anyone.
Then, he threw the body into the river right by the neighborhood.
After he cleaned up the matter ar hand, Lu Xuan took a leisurely walk home and continued to cultivate.
