Ending Wan Han's life didn't really make Jian Shen feel happy or proud.
He only felt as if he had taken his revenge for what the assassins sent by Wan Han had done.
Therefore, after pulling the sword out of the man's body Jian Shen turned around to leave without the slightest care of what would happen next.
"You two, do you know what is higher than an Empire?"
"Huh? An Empire is something which is bigger than a Kingdom. But there isn't really anything above an Empire."
"I agree with the broken sword, husband. There are Dynasties as well, but they are only Empires which have existed for a very long time, and don't really mark any huge difference of power between them and an Empire."
Nodding his head towards the explanation, Jian Shen asked, "What Intent of Heaven and Earth do you think I should learn next?"
""The Intent of Space.""
Answering together, the two swords chose the same Intent which Jian Shen had long since wanted to comprehend.
After all, what was better than flying? Teleportation.
Therefore, Jian Shen who didn't want to wait too long immediately flew off to find a place for him to comprehend the Intent of Space.
Even though the battlefield was chosen in a place which was completely barren and quite a bit far away from any proper civilization, Jian Shen quickly found a mountain close by.
Flying above it, Jian Shen suddenly released his overwhelming pressure and made it cover the entire mountain before proceeding to land near its peak where there was a cave waiting for him.
As for why he released his pressure, it was to keep the stupid monsters away from him and not disturb him while he was trying to comprehend the Intent of Space.
Walking inside the cave which wasn't too deep, Jian Shen didn't bother placing a bed or mat of any sort and directly sat on the hard floor.
And then, Jian Shen was just about to take out one of the Space Intent Crystals from the World Crest when he suddenly stopped and walked out of the cave.
Floating above the mountain not too far from him, there was a woman whom Jian Shen had seen before as well.
Qi Li. One of the two Sect Leaders of the Iron Body Sect, and the woman who is considered as the strongest female cultivator on the Wu Yun Continent.
"What are you here for?"
"We lost this war because of you, Jian Shen."
Even though she spoke such words there was no anger on the woman's face at all making Jian Shen feel that her true intention behind coming here didn't have anything to do with what she said.
"Okay. And?"
Playing along with Qi Li, Jian Shen decided to try and find out what she truly wanted.
"In that case, shouldn't you take responsibility for how I'm feeling right now?"
Flying downwards Qi Li who had her own thoughts stopped in front of Jian Shen with a greedy smile on her face.
Looking towards the only woman whom he knew dressed like a man, Jian Shen found himself taking a second look at her from seeing her so close.
With short white hair and blue coloured eyes, she was dressed in something that looked like a simplified robe which hugged her legs and upper body without being loose in the slightest.
Also, other than revealing quite a lot of her skin from the neck till her belly, Qi Li also wore a similar blue coloured coat on top of her.
As for that black fur lining on the inside of the coat, Jian Shen could guess that it belonged to some Desolate Beast which Qi Li had hunted with her own hands.
Looking at the way Qi Li was dressed from a broader perspective, other than how sexily she was dressed one could see that she dressed in this way to make it easier for her to move.
Most likely because she always used her fists when fighting.
If there's was one thing which Jian Shen couldn't understand about the woman, it was how her nails were so long.
For someone who used their firsts to fight, wouldn't such long nails be nothing more than a hindrance?
Similar to Jian Shen who was observing her, Qi Li was also observing him to realize how much better he looked from such a close distance.
Jian Shen was without a doubt a handsome boy who stood out regardless of where he was at. And in this same way, Jian Shen had further stood out on the battlefield due to how strong he was on top of being handsome.
Therefore, Qi Li truly couldn't resist the urge to come and find him.
"You look much more... "
"You look much more... "
Chuckling together at how they were about to say the same thing, the two of them had managed to understand what was going to happen next.
Jian Shen understood the intention behind Qi Li coming here, while she understood what Jian Shen's reply would've been when she exposed her intention.
With no more words needing to be said to each other, Jian Shen put away the thoughts of comprehending the Intent of Space for some other time.
Taking one step towards each other, Jian Shen's hands hugged Qi Li by the waist while her hands found their way towards the sides of his cheeks.
Pressing their lips against each other, the two of them began kissing each other as intensely as possible from the very beginning.
