Outskirt of Town.
"Chief... chief... Chief" a guard came rushing toward Chief Lan, he was out of breath from running.
"calm down, take a breath, slowly.." Chief Lan said to the guard
hearing chief Lan word, the guard took a breath and starting to calm down, when he heard,
" now tell me what happen?"...
" Chief... when i was about on my way toward Theo house, i heard the sound of fighting,"... the guard replied.
" mark, did you see the fight...." chief Lan paused and said again "tell me detail"
before mark could utter a single word chief Lan said again," fuck, what I am thinking"
" gather the boys, we will go towards Theo house and tell me the details on the way," Chief Lan order Mark and start running toward the forest.
Mark did as he was told and gather around 20 guards and went the same way as Chief Lan went. On the way they meet Chief Lan, when meeting chief Lan mark start telling what he knows and told him that he didn't see the fight only heard the sound of screaming, so he immediately came to chief Lan.
Mark was one the customer of Theo when Theo used to deliver, He was like older brother to Theo. He was orphan same as Theo, so he care about Theo. so when he didn't see Theo for 6 months he got worried and went to meet him when he heard the sound of screaming. as for why 6 months because he heard from old jiang that Theo killed a big merchant's son while he inquiring about Theo.
He was told by chief Lan to not meet Theo for any future trouble for a while, in the end he can't wait and went straight to meet him. And for why not help Theo while he was fighting, its not because he was afraid, its because he was not a fool. So he came straight to chief Lan for help.

Central layer of the forest,
Theo was leading Gunther to a specific location of central layer of the forest. Gunther was feeling something was amiss, he start looking around, in the end he put the thought into the back of his neck, when he noticed nothing.
When they reach the location, Gunther swung his knife like last time and Theo did the same thing turn around, swing his sword towards the knife. But this time it was different, it was brief moment of clash but Gunther saw a smile on Theo's face. he got the same feeling as when he was chasing Theo.
So he push Theo away with full strength, taking that as a momentum Theo move backward toward a bush and disappear using flickering movement technique. and when Gunther reach the spot where Theo disappear. he found no one.
But instead of feeling scare Gunther start laughing, he knew Theo can't defeat let alone kill him, so he start laughing and start talking in loud voice.
" boy is this your plan" pausing for bit
" leading me into the central area of the forest and disappear" and start talking again
" boy you know, you can never get out of from me, a third level qi refining challenging a core condensation," Gunther start laughing and then he stop laughing and plan to use qi sensing.
when he start using qi sensing, the beast in the cave woke up because of it. He never knew that Theo let him to area of a spirit beast, so he start using his qi sensing carelessly. But now he will pay the price for his overconfident.
As for how Theo Knew about this spirit beast is because of herb he needs to gather for his five treasure organ, he was in third treasure organ. during herb gathering he mostly found herb with wood and earth element, which is use for liver and spleen refining. By the way five treasure organ are cultivated like this:-
liver - wood element
Heart - fire element
lungs - metal element
spleen - earth element
kidney - water element
During for the search for other element herb he stumbled upon this spirit beast at that time he got a great sense of danger, but now he is helping him.
The spirit beast was sleeping when he sense that someone was using qi sensing in his territory. he got up when he went to see who was in his territory he saw a human being, he got angry that a puny human being was using qi sensing at his territory. so he pounce at that the human being.
Gunther was using qi sensing when he felt a terrible pressure coming at him, he woke up from his trance and a big black panther that to a spirit beast pouncing at him. he readied himself for the impact and the fight between spirit beast and human being being.
While they were fighting, Theo was far away watching the fight between Gunther and black panther. He was waiting for the right opportunity, like a lion waiting to pounce at his prey. you can feel a pressure coming from Theo, even Theo doesn't even know that, but that pressure was taking from form slowly, slow but it will form surely in the end.
the fight between Gunther and the black panther was too heated both was injured gravely. when the both thought for the final clash and sword pierce at the heart of Gunther. Gunther who was never aware about such situation to unfold, felt grieved in his heart, he thought that the boy would runaway way before. Now seeing his face again he want to say a lot. But Theo never gave him chance he slice his body in two half, before he could say anything.
Just after killing Gunther, Theo used flickering movement and jump up at the beast head and pierce it. This happen in a split second that the beast never got the chance to react and that's how he died too.
