In fact, He Shun could guess that Qi Lan still isn't going since he wants him to rest first. He Shun isn't stupid, and also knows his own strength. Qi Lan is just being considerate towards him. Even this matter of him being tired, Qi Lan noticed. Such a very tiny detail being noticed by Qi Lan… how can He Shun's heart not be moved? 

How can a person be this good? He Shun thought and sighed with emotion. He looked at Qi Lan who has his eyes closed before he rose from the rock he is sitting on and silently left. He doesn't want to drag Qi Lan down with him. He owed him too many debts that he can't count them with his hands and feet. It is already against his conscience to inconvenience the other to even look after him in the competition like his… bodyguard.

Just thinking about it, He Shun felt his guilt is eating him. He felt ashamed. Thus, he will leave and slowly farm points, as much as he could. If he will be eliminated, so be it. He doesn't want to drag Qi Lan. 

But, Qi Lan wanted to drag him. Yes, before He Shun could walk far, Qi Lan appeared behind him and pulled him using the back of his collar before he dragged him back to where were they resting. "Where do you think you are going?" Qi Lan asked as he placed him down. "Don't run around. The demons are very dangerous." He told the silent He Shun.

He Shun didn't answer. He lowered his head and bit his lower lip. His heart is filled with remorse. In fact, he is aware that he is taking advantage of Qi Lan's kindness to indulge himself with the security the other brought. Thus, he really feel guilty now to face Qi Lan. He felt ashamed. Thus, he can't bring himself to face him.

Not to mention – he thought as he felt his cheeks turned warm. He remembered that time when Qi Lan looked after him while he was still ill after a spirit servant attacked him. Although he knows that Qi Lan only looked after him out of kindness, he still can't help but feel his heart thump loudly and wildly inside his chest. He felt even more guilty and ashamed, since he has this kind of thoughts towards Qi Lan, who is a kind man.

He isn't worthy of him, much being as a friend. Thinking of this, He Shun felt his heart sank and the heta on his cheeks disappeared. He should stay away from Qi Lan from now on. He can't continue abusing his kindness towards him, especially that he doesn't think of Qi Lan only as a friend. What he wanted is beyond friendship. He now turned greedy.

He clenched his fists and took a deep breath to calm his emotions.

Qi Lan was silently observing He Shun. He saw him suddenly fell silent. What is this guy thinking earlier? He thought. Why did he suddenly become impulsive earlier? Leaving to kill the demons alone? Even if he wanted to temper himself, being reckless definitely isn't the right way to do it. So, has he realized it now and is reflecting?

Hm? He thought when he saw that He Shun remained silent for a long time. Did he fall asleep? Not good. His waist, back and neck would hurt if he will sleep while sitting. He thought and rose to approach He Shun.

Just as he was about to touch him to push him down and fix him to lie on the ground to sleep properly, He Shun suddenly raised his head absent-mindedly, and was startled to see that Qi Lan's face was just an inch away from his face. Their bodies are so close to each other, too, enough for their breaths to mingle with each other.

He Shun stared at Qi Lan with widened eyes and felt his mind went blank. Qi Lan, meanwhile, was also startled and got distracted. He saw that He Shun's pupils have lighter color and is so clear. He Shun's eyelashes are also curled. He hasn't seen He Shun this close and he was caught off-guard.

But, Qi Lan's wits immediately returned when he heard some growling near them. He immediately pulled He Shun towards him and they rolled to the nearby rock, picking up their swords on the way before he threw a rock in a bush.

"RARRR!!!" as expected, a demon appeared. It was just actually silently observing them and would pounce on them as soon as their guards lowered down.

He Shun's wits also returned. "A demon!" he exclaimed and immediately reached for his sword. But, it was Qi Lan's sword that he picked up for it was nearer to him. For a moment, his figure suddenly staggered before Qi Lan caught his shoulders when he was about to fall to the ground.

"Are you okay? Do you still feel tired? Just rest first and I will deal with these demons." Qi Lan told He Shun when he saw that more demons appeared. Probably got called by the demon that was secretly watching them.

He Shun didn't answer, feeling absent-minded. Qi Lan thought that He Shun felt sleepy and took his silence as acquiescing so he left to kill the demons. Meanwhile, He Shun who was left stared at his sword on the ground in a daze.

Qi Lan-ge's sword… why does it feel different, like its shape is different from how it looked? He thought. And… the sword looked heavier. He added. That was the reason why he staggered earlier, thinking that it was his sword that he picked up.

"He Shun!" Qi Lan's voice shouted when he saw a demon slipped past his defenses and rushed towards He Shun.

He Shun was pulled back to his senses. He rolled on the ground and picked up his sword before he unsheathed it and then swung it backwards, beheading the demon that leapt towards him.

Qi Lan sighed in relief when he saw that He Shun was safe. He then focused on killing the demons. He Shun also didn't become idle and joined Qi Lan.

"This He Shun, although looked slow, actually has fast reflexes!" a sect leader complimented He Shun.

He Run smiled in satisfaction as he watched his son fought. His eyes are filled with pride.

"Sect leader He's son has become more matured." Another sect leader said when they saw that He Shun fought sharper and smarter now, bypassing the demons that leaped in the air and dealt with the ones that are on the ground first before he returned to deal with the demons that just landed on the ground.

"His growth is fast." Jing Rui commented.

"En. I agree." Sun Yu nodded.

"This generation's disciples are very promising!" Li Nanzi said and Tang Teng nodded in agreement.

He Run's heart is filled with joy and his smile became wider. After that incident, he was secretly depressed, deeply worried about his son's condition. He blamed himself and felt guilty towards his deceased wife since he felt that he had neglected their son after he focused on their sect. He actually was ready to commit suicide if He Shun's condition would be incurable, which has a big chance since it was a foreign attack.

Fortunately, there was Cheng Sheng. If it hasn't been for Cheng Sheng… and also Qi Lan. If Qi Lan hasn't found He Shun… He Shun would have reunited with his mother and He Run would follow them.

"Sect leader He? Sect leader He?" Wu Tong called when he saw that He Run was in a daze.

He Run blinked and turned. "What?" he asked.

"Look. Your son's points have increased!" Xie Lan told him with a grin.

He Run turned.

"He is only a hundred points way from the point threshold." Wu Yuan spoke.

He Run saw this and heaved a sigh of relief. He believes that He Shun can earn the hundred points and wouldn't be eliminated in the first elimination period!



"These disciples are really very promising…!" Cheng Sheng exclaimed and clapped. He feels satisfied with everyone's performance.

The other elders heard this and are secretly delighted, feeling proud of their respective disciples. At least we have satisfied this scum's standards, so that means that the disciples we have raised aren't shameful. They thought and smiled.

Fei Yin saw the bright smile on Cheng Sheng's face. "Is my nephew included?" he asked with a teasing voice.

Cheng Sheng's smile froze. He turned to Fei Yin. "Hey, da shixiong. If you address Er Zi as your nephew, that would make him my nephew, too." He spoke. "Then, wouldn't this make Er Zi's position as my personal disciple look awkward?" he asked.

Fei Yin's expression remained calm. "Nevertheless, he will still call you 'shifu'." He said.

Cheng Sheng rolled his eyes at his lover drinking a jar of vinegar again just because of a child. Fei Yin… he returned but he became so petty!
