Chapter 549: Chapter 8: Urban Superpower Users (8)

Li Shuning laughed. Her superpower had already awakened, much faster than she imagined. So next, it was time to ascend her superpower to a higher level.

If Yang Yan intended to make a move on her but found herself unable to, what kind of expression would she have then?

Li Shuning found it somewhat amusing and a bit schadenfreude; after all, she loved a good face-slapping.

In enhancing her superpower, the original protagonist did quite well in the plot.

In this world, most people enhance their superpower through external means, like some treasures, materials, or accumulating through battles.

However, the original protagonist discovered that each time she exhausted all her superpower within and then meditated for cultivation, she’d find her superpower increased upon recovery.

And as this wasn’t a result of battle consumption, it wasn’t too taxing on her body, at least not so exhausting.

But it still had some impact on spiritual power.

So, having stronger spiritual power was also beneficial for enhancing superpower.

The original protagonist had thought of ways to enhance spiritual power, but those didn’t affect Li Shuning much.

Li Shuning herself inherently possessed such capability; her spiritual power was more potent than anyone else’s.

However, exhausting her superpower couldn’t be done at home since her superpower was quite destructive.

In the plot, the original protagonist awakened her superpower during winter break after New Year’s.

And by then, it was almost final exams time.

Li Shuning planned to enhance her strength after the finals, as there was no rush.

During this period, Li Shuning also focused greatly on studying.

Exams were exceedingly easy for her.

After two days of exams, Li Shuning told her family she wanted to go on a trip.

Her family was somewhat uneasy since traveling alone as a delicate girl could invite unwanted attention from ill-intentioned men.

Since it wasn’t Xia City, her family suggested she take a bodyguard with her.

Li Shuning naturally refused; having a bodyguard was inconvenient.

After some thought, she said she wanted to visit her family’s Wangshan Villa, which left her family with no arguments.

The family villa at Wangshan was quite safe.

Her family knew Li Shuning enjoyed peace and quiet.

Li Shuning drove there by herself.

Wangshan Villa was the only villa, and the entire mountain was the private property of the Li Family.

At the foot of the mountain, there were bodyguards, ensuring no one snuck up the mountain.

Being private property, there was no worry about prying eyes.

After settling in, Li Shuning found a secluded spot to exhaust her superpower.

Once she depleted her superpower, a big pit appeared on the ground.

Li Shuning sat on the ground, meditating to restore her superpower. Her spiritual power was immense, and the earlier expenditure had virtually no effect on it.

Others might not find it so easy.

After exhausting their superpower, others might also deplete their spiritual power significantly, so meditation was needed to restore it, which naturally took time.

Sometimes, additional medication was needed to aid faster recovery.

Li Shuning didn’t need to worry about such things at all.

In just one day, her superpower had increased.

The following day, she continued to deplete her superpower just like the first day.

While she was meditating, the phone she carried suddenly rang.

Her ringtone was a piece of light music.

While meditating, as the music played, Li Shuning suddenly felt the superpower in her body soothe significantly.

What was going on?

Li Shuning, mindful of the call, concentrated her spiritual power even more.

This time, she sensed her superpower circulating in sync with the rhythm of the music coming from her phone.

Unfortunately, the phone rang for only thirty-odd seconds before stopping.

Li Shuning opened her eyes, excitement flashing within.

Though it was just a brief thirty seconds, she clearly sensed that, with heightened concentration during meditation, the music’s resonance affected the activeness of her superpower.

If music influenced her superpower’s activity, could it also influence its enhancement?

Quickly checking her phone, she found it was Yang Yan calling; how intriguing.

With a cool smile, Li Shuning returned the call.

Yang Yan was in Beidu, having enjoyed herself thoroughly for the past half-month but recently had been feeling anxious.

Having not monitored Li Shuning, she felt uneasy.

Remembering Li Shuning’s later abilities, she decided to call to probe.

“Hey, Shuning, you didn’t answer earlier. What were you busy with?”

Li Shuning’s voice was cold. “Something up?”

“Shuning, we’re still friends, right? I know I was wrong before. At that time, I was devastated, emotionally unraveled, and said things I shouldn’t have. You’re my best friend, the one I trust most. As they say, you show your true colors only to those closest because you know they won’t blame you.”

“Shuning, it’s my fault. I’m truly sorry. Can you please not blame me?”

“No, you were just stirred up. I won’t blame you.”

Feigning friendliness was something she could do as well.

Yang Yan indeed laughed over this. She knew Li Shuning as soft-hearted, a bit of a Holy Motherly type; otherwise, who would teach others their cultivation methods?

“Shuning, I messed up before. It won’t happen again. You know, after that incident, I awakened a superpower. Have you heard of them? In our ordinary world, there’re actually monsters and Superpower Users. We used to be completely in the dark. It’s only after awakening that I discovered how vast the chasm is between the world of Superpower Users and ordinary people.”

On the call, Yang Yan exuberantly told of a girl discovering a new world after awakening her superpower.

Li Shuning quietly listened, aware that Yang Yan had ulterior motives. It was uncertain what she planned.

As expected, after much chatter, Yang Yan abruptly inquired, “Shuning, aren’t you curious? Have you awakened your superpower too? I always thought you were better than me, definitely awakened as well.”

Li Shuning rolled her eyes, seeing through Yang Yan’s intentions.

“Yang Yan, your stories sound far-fetched. Is there really such a world? It sounds dangerous. You need to be careful. But what’s your superpower like? I haven’t noticed anything unusual about myself. How do you awaken it?”

Believing she discerned some information, Yang Yan relaxed, thinking Li Shuning hadn’t awakened.

“Haha, Shuning, something just came up here. I’ll tell you later, okay? Gotta go.”

Listening to the dial tone, Li Shuning shook her head, hanging up. She then opened her music player, selected a few songs, maxed out the volume, and resumed meditating.

She intended to experiment, seeing how music affected her superpower.
