"Good morning, Meixiu." Yuan greeted her, who was already preparing breakfast.
"Morning."
Once breakfast was prepared, they sat around the dining table until all of the plates were empty.
"Once we deal with the Cultivatorsâ Association, letâs go out and eat at a restaurant, Meixiu," Yuan said to her afterward.
"O-Okay..." Although it was quite sudden, Meixiu agreed regardless.
After breakfast, Yuan changed into a new set of clothes and grabbed his mask.
"Are you ready, Miss Meifeng?" Yuan asked her, who was right behind him.
"Wait a second, Young Master," Meifeng said.
And she continued, "The Yu Family was able to find your location because theyâd somehow managed to acquire footage of you and Meixiu on the public surveillance cameras, so I would advise you to take a different routeâ one that is hidden from these cameras."
"How am I supposed to know where to go?" Yuan raised his eyebrows.
"Donât worry, I have already found a route from this place to the Cultivatorsâ Association that will allow us to travel without being seen. You just need to follow me."
"Okay, I will leave everything to you. I want to save my spiritual energy for when I reach the Cultivatorsâ Association, so can I hold your hands until then?" Yuan then asked her.
Since he needed spiritual energy for divine sense, it would be wiser to save his spiritual energy until he needed it. And even though he can use his divine sense for much longer now that heâs a Spirit Master, it still wasnât enough for him to keep it activated for long periods at a time.
"Of course, you can." Meifeng held her hands out with a smile on her beautiful face.
Yuan then wore his mask before grabbing her soft hands.
Meifeng also wore her mask before leading Yuan outside the door and into the streets, following the route Meifeng had prepared in advance to avoid being seen.
"It will take us a little longer to reach the Cultivatorsâ Association since weâre taking this unique route. Since we have some time, can you tell me what you intend on doing there so I can prepare for it?" Meifeng asked him as they walked hand in hand.
"I am going there to intimidate them," he responded in a calm voice.
"Excuse me?" Meifeng turned to look at him with her eyes filled with shock.
"Youâre going to intimidate the Cultivatorsâ Association? One of the most powerful factions in the entire world right now? You know even the Yu Family donât dare to offend them, right?" She said to him in a dazed voice.
"Yes, I know," Yuan responded in a calm voice.
"Then how are you going to intimidate them?"
"If words wonât get through them, I can only use force, right?" Yuan said.
"F-Force...?" Meifeng had a bad feeling about this, and she started regretting agreeing to this farce.
"Donât worry, I am confident in my strength."
"I am not worried about that... But if you act violently at the Cultivatorsâ Association, you will get arrested."
"The Cultivatorsâ Association is not only a powerful force, but they are also something like the police for cultivators since normal police wonât be able to deal with cultivators and their incredible strength."
"Simply, youâll go to jail that is specifically made for cultivators."
"I wonât do anything violent... if I donât have to."
Meifeng sighed and mumbled to herself, âLooks like I might have to call some lawyers after this all goes down...â
Meifeng wasnât too worried that Yuan might go to jail for causing a scene in the Cultivatorsâ Association as long as he doesnât kill anyone, as she has connections with many powerful and reliable lawyers who can get someone out of anything as long as they had enough money.
About an hour later, they arrive at the Cultivatorsâ Association.
"Weâre here, Young Master. Please... Just donât do anything too crazy..." Meifeng pleaded.
Yuan didnât say anything and merely nodded.
He then stood there for a minute to prepare himself.
Once he was ready, he released Meifengâs hand and began walking towards the Cultivatorsâ Association, and Meifeng followed him from behind.
Their unique appearance quickly attracted everyonesâ attention, and they wondered why Yuan and Meifeng were wearing masks.
There was a line to the reception, but Yuan ignored the line and walked straight to the front.
"The line is back there." The woman working at the reception pointed to the back of the line.
"I am here to speak with your Chairman. Take me to him."
"Iâm sorry, but who are you?"
"I will only speak with the chairman."
"Iâm afraid thatâs not possible. Until we know your identity, you wonât see anyone. Furthermore, Chairman Zhao is currently busy in a meeting, so he wonât have time for youâ"
BANG!
Yuan suddenly slammed the desk with his fist, instantly destroying it.
This startled the woman and everyone there greatly, including Meifeng, who felt like she was suddenly before a different person.
"I will not repeat myself," Yuan said in a calm voice that had a hint of anger within.
The woman looked at the destroyed desk with her eyes wide with shock, as the desk was made out of metal and not something an ordinary cultivator could achieve.
A few moments later, once the guards there snapped out of their daze, they quickly surrounded Yuan and Meifeng.
"Who the hell do you think you are?! How dare you cause such a scene at the Cultivatorsâ Association?!"
The head of the security there shouted at Yuan. Of course, they were all cultivators.
Yuan slowly turned his head to look at the middle-aged man who was at the 6th level Spirit Apprentice.
"If you bring me to your chairman, there will no longer be a scene," he then said.
"The audacity! Apprehend them!" The middle-aged man commanded the dozen of cultivators around him.
However, before they could even get close, Yuan released his Spirit Master cultivation base, instantly halting these Spirit Apprentices with intense pressure.
Although none of them could comprehend what they were feeling since they had never seen a Spirit Master before, they instinctively knew to stay away from Yuan or their lives would be in danger.
