"Fight! Fight!" the spectator's heated-up atmosphere was infectious as it gets them to cheer for the side they're supporting. Although it was just a normal fistfighting with a hint of Spiritual Energy in use, the fighting spirit was critical here.
To a quiet and calm village like this one, only such an event can get all of them excited to the point of cheering out loud.
This was also the first time Yanglin receive cheering while doing something. As a loser in his previous life, there's nothing better than this. It made his body responded faster and his mind processing things better. It was like he has a sugar rush into his head from eating something sweet.
Once again, Yanglin's punch landed beautifully at Tong Xun's left chest. The latter coughed as he rolled on the ground in pain. But fueled with anger in his eyes, he made sure that he won't be the only one on the floor.
Tong Xun's kick got Yanglin's inner thigh before he fell.
The scene of two participants was on the floor from the pain they inflicted on each other made everyone curious about the results. The fight continued, but the outcome is still unknown.
Both of them were already exhausted from the duel that turned into a brawl between two youngsters. Due to the exhaustion from keep using their Spiritual Energy without a hint of reservation, the two fell unconscious at the same time. They hate to accept this result, but their body was honest.
"What? That's how it ended?" everyone was disappointed by the result of a draw. But since they had something good to watch, nobody complained about the result too much.
Although he hesitates, the Village Elder announced that the duel between them ended up in a draw. It might not be an outcome he desired, but there was nothing much he can do. And while the chief was thinking about what to do with Yanglin, his assistant came and brought him away to handle something else.
"Is this not the chance to get this youth's good impression?" Tong Wansi thought. Flicking his hand for his servant's attention, he ordered them to bring both youngsters back to the Tong's Household.
Unknown to how long he was asleep, Yanglin was shocked when he found out he was resting on top of a comfortable mattress. The quality of this mattress was at least a hundred times better than sleeping on that layer of uneven bricks used as a bed.
'How long did I fall unconscious? This is crazy... To think that I actually fell asleep so soundly at someone else's bed.' Yanglin scratched his head while looking clueless. As this was his first time at someone else's property, he had no idea what he had to do.
He could choose to open the door and go out to check what is going on here. Still, his knowledge about how Main Lead was captured and imprisoned by villains from the books made him retreated back to the bed.
Or, he could choose to wait here until someone comes in.
'But what if they're just waiting for me to be awake? Won't waiting here equals waiting for my death if I stay?' Yanglin scratched his head harder. He's currently at the point of a dilemma between going and not going.
**Creak...**
The sound of the door is opening indicates that it was pointless for him to regret his choice.
Unsure if he would be fine, Yanglin slowly turned his head up to scan the person coming into the room. Based on the sound made by the shoe this person is wearing, it sounded like the shoe of a female, with a hint of pointy heel music.
Yanglin bravely meets with the eyes of the person.
It was a she. She was in dull yellow clothing, decorated with embroideries of flowers from her collar to sleeve. Her beauty surprised Yanglin slightly as she took a few more steps until she stood beside the bed.
"Let your aunt take a look on your face," she said. Her hand gently came to the bruise where he was punched by Tong Xun earlier as she checks if there are any other wounds except for this.
'Such a beautiful lady and she called herself aunt? Is she a family member of the previous me, or someone else?' Yanglin was curious about her identity. He finds that a woman like her looked so irresistible.
It seems that his taste in a woman is yet to change. Although this body was young, his mentality is not. Beauty like the one before him was a fruit that he desired to pluck, compared to those unripe ones like Xia Xuan-Xuan or Liu Shuixian.
"Mother! What are you doing here instead of taking care of me?" Tong Xun's sound came into the room as he steps inside in a hurry. He looks afraid that his mother's love might be taken away by another youth if he's not being careful.
"I'm here to take care of the mess you did. Did you bring the pill to reduce inflammation here as I told you?" the woman in yellow asked while moving Yanglin's head around gently to check for other injuries.
"Yes, mother..." Tong Xun politely replied to his mother. He might sound rebellious, ignorant, selfish, like a brat, but when it came to his mother, he's nothing more than a meek lamb hunger for her attention.
'Look at him...' Yanglin had an urge to laugh at Tong Xun. But at the same time, he's a little jealous. Such a perfect lady was actually the mother of Tong Xun? How unfair are the heaven and gods here?
"What are you staring at? Swallow this pill and leave. Don't make my mother and father worry." Tong Xun said as he put the pill just beside Yanglin's mouth.
Yanglin took the pill from Tong Xun but didn't consume it directly. His attention then went to Tong Xun's mother like he was asking for her permission first. Of course, his real intention was hidden behind that young and ignorant face of his.
He would never miss the chance to ogle Tong Xun's mother's pair of beautiful breasts while he had the opportunity. Not taking this advantage is the biggest mistake a man can make!
"It's alright. The medicine is something good. You'll recover much faster after eating it." Tong Xun's mother said with a smile.
