Chapter 178 - 175: The True Expert
As he thought, Ling Chen suddenly felt uncomfortable all over, especially in his chest. He thought it was nothing major after being hit by that woman, but now he felt suffocated as if he was about to lose his breath, which was extremely uncomfortable.
Seeing his face turn red and his breathing difficult, the woman quickly stepped forward and struck out with her palm again. Ling Chen widened his eyes, watching her movements.
Again? Was she trying to kill him?
Just as the thought arose, the woman’s delicate palm had already landed on his body. Instantly, he felt an inexplicable force surge through him, a sweetness rose in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
As the clotted blood came out, his breathing became much smoother, and his whole body relaxed. However, when he completely relaxed, he immediately felt his head dizzy and lethargy overwhelmed him.
After the fight with Song Qing, where he severely depleted his physical strength, and now being struck twice by this mysterious woman, he felt he could not take it anymore.
In a daze, he leaned back, lying unconscious in the bushes.
...
He did not know how much time had passed, but Ling Chen finally came to.
He rubbed his temples and slowly sat up, realizing he was lying on a simple wooden bed, covered with a blanket that carried a faint scent of freshness. He looked around and saw that he was in a wooden cabin with nothing but a bed and a desk chair and no valuable decorations - almost everything was made of wood.
