With a thought.
Lin Yi returned to the real world.
He looked around.
He realized that everything that had just happened in the Heart Spirit Domain...
...had taken place in the blink of an eye. Nothing in his surroundings had changed.
Just as Lin Yi and Wei Nan were about to leave,
a scream suddenly erupted from behind them.
Lin Yi quickly turned to look.
He saw Lishi's body fall stiffly to the ground.
Wei Nan's brow furrowed. "What the hell? What's going on? Is he trying to pull a scam?"
Looking at Lishi, now surrounded by other students,
and thinking about how the tiger cub had just chewed Lishi up in what he called the Heart Spirit Domain,
an answer began to form in Lin Yi's mind.
'Could it be that the Lishi the tiger cub chewed up was actually his heart spirit?'
Having one's heart spirit devoured didn't mean a person would die.
It just meant that from now on, he would never be able to cultivate Martial Arts again.
