Forget it she just has to learn magic by herself. Maybe there's beginner level spell books in the Xiao Family's library.
Having thought of that possibility, her once gloomy mood disappeared and she was back on her usual mood.
There are indeed a lot of formidable people in this world. Zhao Ling had noticed that when she met Xiao Yun at the cave. To other people, Xiao Yun's powerful aura was enough to shake a whole city, yet to her it was just a strong wind, it was harmless to her. She thought that Xiao Yun might've been gravely injured that's why the aura didn't take effect on her. But during her visit to the Xiao Family, and encountering countless of capable doctors, even the monstrous general who had defeated millions of enemies before, she wasn't fazed at all by their auras, it didn't even harm her one bit!
She inquired about it on the system, but all the system could answer was that when her mind was forged in with the system, her body encountered numerous change be it physically or mentally. Since her body was devoid of any spiritual qi, only having a small storage provided by the system to store some of it since her body wasn't equipped to carry spiritual qi yet. So she wasn't at all affected by some auras, it was also the works of the system.
'Fufu, what are the cultivation system in this world?'
[Answering host's question.
There are five stages of cultivation in this world:
Beginner, Mediocre, Hardcore, Special, and Immortal
Between these stages there are six levels to go through before ascending to the next stage
Wan, Do, Fre, Por, Vive, Zex.
Each stage you enter it will progressively become harder to level up. Thus countless of cultivators rely on artifacts and pills.
There are also different types of cultivators here. Sword cultivators are considered the most powerful yet the hardest to level up, though it might be smooth sailing at the start, gradually it will become harder until you eventually stop having breakthroughs at some point, thus relying on artifacts and top grade pills aren't avoidable.
Magic cultivators rely solely on magic and different kind of spells, though this is considered weak in a close combat fight since magic cultivators train their mind rather than their bodies thus they appear to be more weak compared to sword and body cultivators. They are mostly church followers.
On the other hand, body cultivators are absolute menace to society. Despite only training the body and completely ignoring their spirit qi, they rely on strength more than the mind. Even if they could crush other people head's instantly, their only weakness are soul spells which can attack the soul and further weaken it.
Demon cultivators are cultivators whom strayed away from the path of righteousness and completely feed off of people's grievances and fear. They are different from evil spirits and demons, though they are much more weaker than demons, they posses both an evil spirit and a physical form. Demon cultivators don't come from possessed bodies of mortals, they purposely and willingly trained that way. They are enemies of the church, but they are very weak when it comes to the church's holy water.
Rogue cultivators are independent cultivators that don't belong in any sect or clan, they are also not members of the church.
Skills are also important in this world. Skills such as weapon refinement, pill refinement, beast taming, and many more. Having these skills can help you join a sect or an aristocratic family.]
'What's general Xiao's cultivation level'
[General Xiao Yang, is a normal warrior. Though he does not train any kind of cultivation techniques he is proficient when it comes to martial arts. He is currently stuck at Mediocre-Fre, unable to have a breakthrough]
'Hmm it seems like I need to train much more earlier than I thought. I'll train early tomorrow, and visit the library to get some beginner level books'
With that set, Zhao Ling went to bed.

At a meeting hall located in the Demon Castle.
"Is everyone present in this meeting" The Lion Monarch asked.
"Except for Snake Monarch and Eagle Monarch, every Monarch is present" Replied the Rabbit Monarch.
"Alright. Let's commence the meeting. As you all know, the demon King suddenly disappeared leaving all his work to us. It would also not take long for the church humans to make a move" The Lion Monarch said with a hint of worry.
"How arrogant of those Church humans. Picking a fight only after our leader has gone out for a moment, we should fight them first then!" The Jaguar Monarch replied with anger.
Hearing Jaguar Monarch's words, the meeting hall erupted with large screams of agreement, it seems like the words of Jaguar triggered a switch in them.
Yeah, how dare the Church people do that.
"Silence! If all of you are eager to fight them, then all of you must have a plan, speak of it!" The Lion Monarch roared.
Within a moment, the meeting hall become silent. All of the monarch's bowed their head low, it's true they really didn't have a plan how to attack the church.
"Then what are we supposed to do? Wait here until the church arrives? Aren't we all gonna die?" The Owl Monarch spoke up, causing the once quiet meeting hall in a frenzy.
"Silence! Though the Great Demon King might not be present, we still have The Five Guardian Demons to protect us!" The Lion Monarch once again replied to the owl's worries.
The meeting hall then was reassured by the Lion Monarch's words. Yes, they indeed still have the guardians to protect us.
"But the five guardians aren't in good terms with each other" The Monkey Monarch added.
The hall members then began to worry.
It's true, the five guardians aren't in good term after that past dispute in which almost cost a war in the Underworld. If it weren't for the demon King's interference, the Underworld would've flipped upside down.
Oh, Demon King please come back to the Underworld, we'll be good demons!

Meanwhile in the Demon's Gates Cult's Hall.
'Xiao Yun, why don't we kill everyone in this kingdom and absorb all of their grieving spirits?' a dark voice echoed 8n Xiao Yun's ears.
"Shut up, I do not have any intention to do that, if you speak of it once again, I will bathe in holy water" Xiao Yun calmly replied.
'If you do that you'll be harmed too!' The dark voice argued.
"I would only be affected mentally, I can bear it, you on the other hand would be burning. So shut your mouth, you'll give me a headache" Xiao Yun warned the voice.
'Hmph, I was just suggesting.. By the way, what happened to that girl we met on the cave? Whenever I see her I felt a weird yet warm sensation in my core. I want to see her again!' The dark voice pleaded.
"Her? You also felt something weird and warm when you met her?" Xiao Yun frowned.
'Yes, it felt like all of my bad thoughts went away. Though that might be bad for me, I'm strangely comforted by her. Let's see her again! Let's see her again!"The dark voice joyfully added.
Xiao Yun did not answer since he was deep in thought.
Who is she?
