"Huh? What is this…?" Liu Xinyu questioned in wonder, frowning at the constant movement of Water Qi. "Is someone so bold to cultivate out in the open?"
Not only was it rare as no one wanted to risk getting injured during cultivation, one of the times when the Cultivator was the most vulnerable but also because it was simply rude. One was claiming all the Water Qi from the area, which could disturb other people's cultivation.
To her surprise, the Qi movement didn't stop intensifying.
Swoosh!
The closer they were, the stronger the wind, messing up their hair. Mia's hair was tied while her own black strands smashed into her face, annoying her.
"Ugh! I will kill whoever causes such a mess!" Liu Xinyu grunted angrily after fixing her hair another time. The suction force was too insignificant to even slow her down but enough to irritate her.
Click.
Liu Xinyu couldn't stand it anymore and finally snapped with her fingers, calming the space around her. Creating a barrier around her was nothing but a bother as she enjoyed the gentle wind blowing on her face.
"There you are!"
The moment she saw the culprit, Liu Xinyu quickly glared in his direction. It was the small golden barrier on one of the rooftops. Water Qi from the whole area gathered around it before sinking inside.
"The person inside must be cultivating and created the barrier to protect themselves," Mia guessed calmly but that didn't calm down her master.
"How much Qi does he need??? Is he planning to forcefully breakthrough all the way from the beginning of God's Stage?" Liu Xinyu questioned with her brows knitted. "It has to be either an old geezer who is scared of dying or some young newbie who just began to cultivate excitedly. Aren't there elders to guide them?"
Liu Xinyu shook her head in disappointment and approached the scene without hesitation. There were already tens of Cultivators and Flying Beasts hovering in the sky above the building but no one acted yet. No one knew who was behind the barrier, so it was the safest to wait and see, in case they offended someone they shouldn't.
Liu Xinyu wasn't even a bit worried about that as she passed through them and landed on the roof, right outside the barrier. It was in her nature to stick her nose to random matters that don't involve her.
Huh?!
Almost instantly, the onlookers gasped, shifting their attention to Liu Xinyu. She didn't hide her presence, nor did she hide her face. There wasn't anyone who could threaten her anyway.
"Wait, is this actually Miss Liu, the daughter of Sect Master Liu?"
With her presence, the scene got suddenly overly interesting. Being a high profile for long, many experts knew how she looked like.
Liu Xinyu's eyelid twitched when she heard the question but she let it slide this time, her focus somewhere else. It was hard to escape her father's shadow, knowing how high profile he was. Unless she got stronger than him, she would always be known as Sect Master Liu's daughter.
When she walked up to the barrier, Mia stepped forward, but in the end, she didn't say anything, only watching anxiously from the side. Liu Xinyu only smiled and reached to touch the barrier, wanting to check who is inside.
"I wouldn't do that, your hand will explode."
Liu Xinyu's arm froze at the sudden voice coming from the side. Both Mia and her disappeared from the spot, reappearing in the safe distance. If someone could approach them without even them noticing, it wasn't time to be careless.
Thankfully, the newcomer didn't seem hostile. It was a mature lady of long blond hair, staring at them with a small smirk as she leaned against the barrier. She was a stunning beauty with her skin smooth and delicate-looking.
"Did you come to disturb my husband? I advise against it," the mature lady spoke, her eyes glistening with a golden hue.
'Fate Spirit!' Liu Xinyu exclaimed in her mind, recognizing the Spirit instantly. 'The person inside must be a Fate Holder for sure!'
How could a person of her caliber not know about Fate Spirits? The only reason she didn't have one was that she never liked depending on other people. She wanted to have her own strength to fight.
'To have such a strong Fate Spirit as his wife…'
Liu Xinyu could tell how advanced the woman in front of her was just based on her body and Spiritual Presence. The only thing she couldn't grasp was the power of her husband who hid behind the barrier to cultivate. With such a Spirit, he could only be even stronger, possible even rivaling her father. She didn't even want to imagine it.
"Ehem… Can I ask who is your husband?" Liu Xinyu questioned as she cleared her throat. "It's okay if you don't want to reveal."
"Hmm…" the mature beauty raised her eyebrows only to smile. "I don't think there is a need. You know him very well."
"Huh? I do?" Liu Xinyu questioned in surprise.
Click.
The mature lady didn't reply immediately but instead snapped her fingers, creating a thin soundproof barrier around them.
"Didn't Miss Liu come here especially to meet us? I'm sure you wonder how we got your Father's Personal Disciple Tokens so you came to meet with us to get to the bottom of it, am I right?"
Liu Xinyu's eyes widened when she heard the question as a sudden realization exploded in her mind.
"Your Husband is Liu Xuefeng!" Liu Xinyu called out loudly. "No wonder… It all makes sense now. I knew something wasn't right when a God Stage cultivator showed such prowes."
"It's not just my credit. It's a team effort. My Xuefeng is really talented," the mature lady replied and her smile disappeared as she muttered under her nose, "I don't know what are your intentions towards my husband but if you think of hurting him in any way…"
She paused before smiling softly.
"I will kill you."
