Chapter 999: Chapter 971 Awakening
“Today, the village chief and the others were talking about you again, saying that you haven’t contributed anything to the village but still consu food.”
Cherie said with so dissatisfaction, “Ever since you ca here, besides drinking so water, you haven’t eaten anything at all!”
“But, why don’t you need to eat anything?”
“When I was little and listening to stories, I heard a story about ‘Sleeping Beauty.’ You wouldn’t be that, right?”
“Haha, definitely not! Sleeping Beauty is a girl, and you are a man. Hmm… at most, you could be considered sowhat handso, but definitely not a hunk!”
“Today, the village chief and the others were wracking their brains again. The day to submit the grain is fast approaching. Once this grain is handed over, the village is going to have tough tis again.”
“I say, why do you keep sleeping all day like a log? How about I just call you ‘Log’?”
“Log, log, what kind of person are you? When I found you, you looked terrible. Also, why is your hair black? You’re the first person I’ve seen with black hair. I heard that only high-level demons have black hair.”
The girl would visit Li Chen every day. Although she noticed that Li Chen didn’t eat anything and remained unaffected, the girl still ca to care for Li Chen every day.
She often sat beside Li Chen, complaining to herself and talking.
In her mind, Li Chen was just an unconscious, sleeping person. So even if she was talking, she wasn’t worried he would hear.
However, what she didn’t know was that Li Chen had long since woken up.
Li Chen heard all of her complaints.
“Kalin Village?” Li Chen’s mind fell into thought, yet in his mory, there was no such village around Linchuan.
Moreover, the girl’s language wasn’t Huaxia, but rather an older English pronunciation from the European region.
However, fortunately, Li Chen knew this language.
So, he morized all Cherie’s words.
“Log! Today you…” Cherie’s voice suddenly cut off, her eyes wide and her face turning sowhat red.
Because she suddenly noticed, the man who had been asleep on the bed had unknowingly opened his eyes.
“Ah…” Cherie was stunned for a while before responding, quickly saying, “Sir, um… you’re awake?”
Li Chen finally opened his eyes and saw what the girl who had been talking beside him for days looked like.
She was a very cute girl with smooth silver long hair, a petite figure, but extrely delicate features, almost like a porcelain doll.
At this mont, the porcelain doll was speaking with a flushed face, sowhat stuttering.
Li Chen gently nodded, then supported himself and struggled to sit up from the bed.
“Sir, you…” Cherie saw the frown on Li Chen’s face as he sat up and couldn’t help but ask with concern.
“I… I’m… fine.” Li Chen was startled by his own voice as soon as he spoke.
Perhaps because he had been asleep for too long, his voice was as hoarse as an old man lost in the desert for days without water.
He gathered a bit of True Qi, cleared his throat, and then slowly spoke: “Hello, my na is Li Chen.”
“I… I’m Cherie.” Cherie replied with a flushed face, speaking softly.
“I’ve been unconscious for a long ti, haven’t I?” Li Chen nodded, saying: “Thank you for taking care of , Cherie.”
Hearing Li Chen’s words, Cherie seed to rember sothing and her face turned even redder, stuttering as she said: “It’s nothing… I, I only gave you so water every day.”
Li Chen shook his head: “But you saved . If it weren’t for you, I might be dead by now.”
“You… you’re being polite!” Cherie waved her hand quickly.
Sensing Cherie’s change in attitude, Li Chen was quite understanding in his heart.
Now that he was awake, naturally things were different from before. Although he was still himself, to Cherie, he was no longer the sleeping ‘Log’; now he was Li Chen.
To Cherie, he was rely a stranger.
Seven days.
Li Chen calculated that since he regained consciousness, it took him seven days to barely regain so control over his body.
Slowly sitting up from the bed, Li Chen’s feet touched the ground.
However, he couldn’t feel much temperature.
Because his legs were still numb.
Trying to stand up, he almost fell.
“I’ll get you sothing to eat. You’ve been without food for days!” Cherie quickly said when she saw Li Chen’s state.
Before Li Chen could respond, Cherie disappeared in a flash.
Seeing Cherie leave, Li Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head. Sure enough, once he woke up, everything was different.
After attempting again, Li Chen frowned: “Indeed.”
His legs hadn’t regained mobility, and he couldn’t even stand up.
However, at this ti, Li Chen found that all his injuries had healed considerably.
Even the arm chopped off by Luo Kai’s sword had grown back on its own, not to ntion the right leg, which had rely been fractured.
Although his injuries had healed, his body functions were incredibly sluggish at this mont.
At this mont, not to ntion martial artists, even a slightly stronger ordinary person could pose a threat to him.
Of course, that was without using True Qi.
With so difficulty, he lifted one of his hands, and suddenly a breath rose from his hand.
Li Chen was surprised to find that his True Qi had undergone so change, transforming from solid to colorless.
However, this transparent True Qi felt much purer than before, and seemingly far more powerful.
“This heaven and earth…” Li Chen’s eyebrows slightly raised.
He could feel the spiritual energy around him was exceptionally abundant.
Abundant to a point unlike the outside world, even surpassing the second layer of the relic he once cultivated.
“Where exactly have I arrived?” Li Chen shook his head.
If it weren’t for this abundance of spiritual energy, even if he lay in bed for another month, he wouldn’t think about getting up.
Just as Li Chen was still pondering, Cherie already returned to the room.
However, to Li Chen’s annoyance, there was soone following behind Cherie.
