"Thank you" He Li didn't dare imagine what would've happened if she had not saved him or did not save him on time and got hit with him.

"No problem, now we're even" She didn't like owing others for too long, now they were even, plus she didn't want him to get hurt.

"Could you let me down please?" It turns out that Zi Hua had followed his example and took him away with a princess carry...

"Okay" Zi Hua let him down, however they did not get a breather after that, the centipede continued it's attacks towards them.

"I'll finish it off, it is my opponent after all" He Li said that and then went back towards the centipede.

As if he was injected with chicken blood, he stayed on the ground and swiftly dodged all the attacks and then bombarded the centipede with unceasing strikes until it got diced.

"Aren't you going to get the core?" He Li inquired.

"No, I have enough, you can take it if you want" She had enough already.

"Thanks" He Li took the cores then headed back towards Zi Hua.

"Here, water... what should I call you?" It only occurred to Zi Hua now that they haven't been calling each other properly.

"Thanks, call me whatever" He Li took the water and gulped it down, fighting in such hot weather was rather strenuous.

"Then... Xiao Li!" With her magnificent naming sense she decided upon the name pear as play on words to his name! (A/N: Li is pear, so she is calling him Little Pear)

"I'll call you Xiao Hua then" Really a fated couple, both with such brilliant naming senses.

The two did not find the two nicknames to be intimate due to their low naming sense awareness. (A/N: Is this a thing? Coz I got told that I have low s.p.a.cial awareness a while ago, not quite sure what that means but does that have anything to do with getting confused with directions? A while ago, I got lost in the shopping center that I've been to like a 100 times already)

"Why do you need those cores Xiao Li?" After battling together, they threw away the initial reserve and distance that they kept between them.

"I'll just sell them when I need money, after all, I can't sell those things in the Heaven-defying artifact"

"Oh, do you need more, I have a bunch that I don't need?" She really did, her subordinates had to learn to be independent so she never gave the cores that she got to them but couldn't be bothered to go sell them either.

"No thanks, apart from getting money from them, I don't have much use for them" He wasn't trying to be polite but really didn't need them and Zi Hua could tell that so she didn't continue asking.

The two rested until they recovered the energy which they had lost during the battle then continued their journey.

"I'll go set up the tent, here's the cooking wares" When the sky started turning dark, they stopped and prepared to stay the night.

She had automatically gave the job of cooking to He Li after tasting his delicious cooking, He Li didn't mind since he enjoyed cooking and didn't find anything wrong with him doing the cooking.

Zi Hua went to pitch up the tent and He Li cooked dinner, although Xiao Shen and Xiao Ling felt that something wasn't quite right with the ch.o.r.es that each of them had, they ignored that feeling since they two were getting closer.

Like the previous day, the two cheeky brats returned to their artifacts to give their masters some s.p.a.ce.

Thankfully, they had stopped early so the temperature was still relatively moderate when He Li finished cooking the food.

"Let's eat!" He called, Zi Hua had just finished pitching up the tent so she headed over.

They ate dinner in a peaceful silence, occasionally saying a few words, the silence was rather relaxing especially coupled with the less extreme temperatures since it was transitioning from hot to cold, they still could feel the decreasing temperature though.
