After Qiang Shen rescued Zhen Lin, he was running at full speed through Mt. Heng while carrying her until he managed to find a cave, where they hid, and to prevent them from being discovered, after leaving Zhen Lin in the cave, pulled several branches of trees with extreme caution so that it was not noticed and covered the entrance of the cave. Those few minutes saved both their lives.
Zhen Lin seeing this, was completely surprised by the events that had just happened, but was completely happy that her "hero" managed to rescue her. Seeing Qiang Shen's actions while trying to hide the cave, she saw him wondering who Qiang Shen really was.
When she began to analyze the events that had happened, she wondered how Qiang Shen could have killed someone without hesitation? where he got so much strength to go running at great speed while he was carrying her? where he obtained those survival skills?
Shortly after Qiang Shen finished hiding the cave, he returned to his teacher to see if she did not have any injuries. "Ms. Zhen, how do you find?" he asked. The moment she heard those words, again ran into his arms, hugged him and began to mourn. "Buaaah! I was very scared !! Buaaaaah !!" Zhen Lin was crying until she fell asleep, and as the temperature was going down and they did not have to cover themselves from the cold, Qiang Shen hugged Zhen Lin, began to circulate his energy and began to transmit a little so they did not go cold.
The next morning, when the temperature was rising again, Qiang Shen left the cave to hunt some animals to eat, taking advantage of the fact that he managed to steal the knife from the thief that he murdered the previous night, however he did not expect to meet one of the thieves on his way back to the cave.
"Young man, what are you doing in a place as desolate as this?" the thief asked. "Just doing mountaineering, I've always liked it and I'm taking advantage of the fact that it's a vacation to venture into the mountains," said Qiang Shen. "But do you think hunting wild animals is not a little inconvenient?" "It's not, it's actually a hobby I have when I go camping." Qiang Shen replied. "Young man, by chance have you seen a woman a little older than you during your hunt?" The thief continued, Qiang Shen made a pose as if he were trying to think, "mmmm, no, I do not remember having found a woman during my hunting" he answered after a few moments.
"Well, if you'll excuse me, I'll continue on my way" said Qiang Shen while he gave up. "Stop there, young man!" the thief screamed as he drew a sword. "You narrowly managed to deceive me but very badly that you did not throw away my partner's knife" said the thief angrily.
"Sh*t!!" Qiang Shen thought as he turned to see the thief. "It seems that I can avenge Bai Long, very bad boy, this Tian Long will make you suffer so much that you wish to be dead" said the thief while smiling maliciously.
In the next instant, Qiang Shen could only defend against Tian Long's attacks because he knew no movement with knives, in his past life he learned the Dao of the Sword and could only defend himself. It was then that he came up with a method to get his enemy's sword, only he did not know if it could work. The moment Tian Long again jumped to Qiang Shen to attack him with his sword, Qiang Shen threw the knife pointed straight at his left eye, causing Tian Long to block him with the blade of his sword blocking his sight.
That small fraction of a second was undoubtedly taken advantage of by Qiang Shen, activating his inner energy and applying the learned movements of the water element Dao, he began his counterattack, with the movement of his feet and hands, he did not give his enemy an opportunity to regain your pace and attack again. With light movements, he would hit parts of his opponent's body, back, arms, neck, knees, hitting certain places lightly, looking like a rain of blows.
After he finished attacking, Tian Long collapsed and unable to move he kept wondering how it was that he had collapsed, Qiang Shen approached him and grabbed the sword. When holding the sword, Qiang Shen felt as if he had recovered a part of his body, like an old cultivator following the path of the sword, that feeling of emptiness that he had at last was filled. Seeing his look of doubt he replied, "It's simple, now my cultivation technique manages the Dao of Water, and when I attacked you, just like when you get wet, you can dry everything you want and you will never eliminate water from your body. The same thing happened in this case, my attacks left residues of energy in your body paralyzing them completely," Qiang Shen explained.
After Qiang Shen finished explaining to Tian Long the reason why he lost, he still enjoyed the feeling of having a sword again, but he could not enjoy that pleasant feeling for a long time, since before continuing with Tian Long, he saw a woman attacking him directly full of anger, so without thinking and with a new partner at his side, he decided to attack her. That person did not know how she died, the last thing she saw was her own back as she fell completely dead by decapitation. Then when Tian Long was done, and before assassinating him, Qiang Shen experimented with him, activating his inner energy filled with water element, and inserting it into the body at the height of the heart, as the energy entered the heart directly, Tian Long started to scream and move desperately while beating his chest until he fell completely dead. His energy had entered directly into the heart and with the movement of that energy Tian Long felt as if millions of tiny needles were destroying his heart. "Ha, with this I can develop new techniques" Qiang Shen said to himself.
With that the count took 3 dead enemies and left 8.
After eliminating the two cultivators, Qiang Shen returned to the cave to see if Zhen Lin was still fine, but the moment he entered, a euphoric Zhen Lin jumped at him and hugged him, however before he could say anything, he felt as his lips were sealed by something soft. At that moment Zhen Lin was kissing him.
