Since she is weak, what’s wrong with her snatching sothing from weaker people?
Isn’t this just the way things are?
Li Yuan said, "Do you think I’m strong?"
Zhenyan Xue thought for a mont and said, "You seem okay, I guess."
Li Yuan said, "A truly strong person could crush with just one finger..."
Zhenyan Xue was startled: "Is it that scary?"
But imdiately, she looked doubtful and said, "Or maybe you’re just too weak?"
Li Yuan said, "Let’s have an arm-wrestling match when we get ho."
Then, he explained how to arm wrestle, and Zhenyan Xue beca instantly interested.
Without waiting to get ho, she was eager to have a go right away.
...
...
Bang!
A hand slamd onto the rock.
Bang!
The hand was slamd on the rock again.
Bam bam bam!
The hand continued to hit the rock.
Zhenyan Xue shook her hand and looked at the boy across from her in shock, saying, "You’re quite strong, almost as strong as the n in our race..."
Then she added, "It seems like there really are strong people; otherwise, you could have just taken your money back even if you lost."
After saying that, she sighed longingly, as if her beautiful dream of robbing had been shattered.
Li Yuan also let out a sigh of relief.
In this situation, he realized that if he hadn’t shown up in ti, it wouldn’t have been long before the borders of the Cloud Mountain Path would be buzzing with the news of a "terrifying female bandit running rampant, unstoppable, and various families inviting the Tang Sect to help in a crackdown."
No wonder in the Ice River Chronicles, a Sixth Grade at the Divine Wood Hall said his strength was not even as much as his wife’s.
The Sixth Grade couldn’t see the stats, but Li Yuan could.
Zhenyan Xue had a physical prowess that already reached the Sixth Grade standard, which couldn’t be matched by the frozen Sixth Grade of Shadow Blood.
Suddenly, Zhenyan Xue worried, "Mu Er, will we be robbed?"
Li Yuan said, "Those strong ones follow rules, and they wouldn’t care about our things."
Zhenyan Xue lifted her leg, showing off her beautiful legs, and stomped the embroidered shoes here and there, saying, "But these shoes are so pretty, why wouldn’t they care?"
"Because that shoe store belongs to them, they don’t need to rob." Li Yuan explained casually.
Zhenyan Xue curiously asked, "But they could just rob money, so why sell it?"
Li Yuan patiently explained, "Because such things are not important to them, they don’t care."
"Then what is important?"
"I don’t know either."
"If they’re so powerful, wouldn’t they want to snatch to have their children?" Zhenyan Xue suddenly worried, "After all, I should be quite easy to raise; my mother said I have wide hips."
Li Yuan: ??????
"Does that often happen where you’re from?"
"If there’s a fight, it happens; strong n would take a fancy to young won from the neighboring tribe and take them back to sleep with. After all, that way their tribe will have one more woman to bear children, and our tribe will have one less."
"Your hotown’s ways are quite wild..."
"Wild?"
"Wild..."
"You people are so strange."
"In what way strange?"
"You can clearly rely on strength to rob, yet you choose to sell.
You can clearly snatch won to have children, yet you maintain peace."
"Perhaps it’s your hotown that’s strange."
"Mu Er, do we have money left at ho? I still want to go shopping in the county." The tall girl shifted her thoughts, and after confirming that there was no big danger here, her eyes sparkled with the desire to spend money.
The two chatted all the way.
And Li Yuan was patiently chatting, not rushing to ask about "the tribe" matters.
He needed to beco a "familiar person" to this girl first, and then talk about other things.
...
...
Before going to the Western Pole and seeing Zhenyan Xue, Li Yuan thought that the strength of this world lay in Shadow Blood’s power.
Shadow Blood was the source of power, and strange thoughts were the way to control the power. The visualization of these thoughts was... the Ancestral Talisman.
In short, the Ancestral Talisman was just a thought.
Only specific thoughts could mobilize specific Shadow Blood and thus exert power.
But the "Shadow Blood Freeze" of Western Pole Eternal Night and the natural physical strength of Zhenyan Xue made Li Yuan realize... this world is not that simple.
Thinking further, Ghost Realm is actually a type of power too, one he never understood and never mastered.
Nurous thoughts flashed by, but Li Yuan’s hands didn’t stop.
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!!
The sound of chopping wood could be heard.
Li Yuan and Zhenyan Xue were competing, chopping wood quickly like a race.
But how could Zhenyan Xue compete with Li Yuan?
She relied entirely on brute force to chop wood, whereas Li Yuan’s sword skill was astonishingly superb.
His axe went through the wood like water, turning logs as thick as adult thighs into pieces as thin as fingers...
Before long, a heap of wood like a small mountain had accumulated behind Li Yuan, each piece nearly a work of art.
Whereas Zhenyan Xue had managed to stack only a small and crooked pile behind her.
The long-legged girl grew agitated and secretly clenched her fists in a corner.
However, she wasn’t angry that "a man wouldn’t let a woman win," but rather muttered, "I’m still too weak."
Yet, while she was angry, there was also a faint hint of happiness in her eyes as if saying, "This man is not bad, he seems truly stronger than ."
Days passed by...
Li Yuan lived seriously.
There wasn’t much acting involved, except for hiding his true identity and past; he interacted with Zhenyan Xue with his usual personality.
He lived with enthusiasm, even trying in this process to genuinely develop feelings for Zhenyan Xue.
And this silly big girl, Zhenyan Xue, didn’t even notice Li Yuan’s peculiarity at all.
She only thought Li Yuan was stronger than those weaker than him, but there were still many stronger than Li Yuan.
