Chapter 205 - Fight

As Wang Wei continued to speak, his tone gradually became heavier. “Of course, aside from your mother, there’s also your girlfriend! They will all eventually come to despise you because nobody wants to be around a lunatic.”

Seeing Li Huowang lying on the bed and continuing to glare at him, Wang Wei continued, “Do you know how long it takes for her to get here by train? How many transfers she has to take? How many excuses she has to come up with to explain to her parents? No, you don’t know. Because you only think about yourself. That lady named Yang Na has been sacrificing so much for you. But what about yourself? You have been uncooperative with the treatment and unwilling to take even a single step out of your comfort zone. Li Huowang! What kind of man are you?!”

As heard all this, the veins on Li Huowang’s forehead throbbed.

“Li Huowang, you don’t deserve her! Yang Na should have long since given up on you and gone away to find someone better! Then, the final outcome would be her getting together with someone else and bearing their children. And all the while you would just continue to lie here on the sickbed and imagine them together in bed!” continued Wang Wei.

“Shut up!”

Creak~ The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñøv€l-B1n.

The straps restraining Li Huowang began to tear as he glared at Wang Wei intensely.

Wang Wei could see the hostility in Li Huowang’s eyes; even so, he wasn’t the least bit afraid as he walked over to the bedside and removed the restraints.

As soon as he was free, Li Huowang pounced on Wang Wei and grabbed his nurse’s uniform, and then threw a punch. “What do you know?! You’re just a hallucination! Do you know anything about what I’ve been through?! You don’t know anything!”

Wang Wei also started to fight back. Soon, a fist landed on Li Huowang's face, causing his nose to start bleeding. At that moment, Wang Wei’s expression seemed to have become as crazed as Li Huowang’s—his teeth were clenched as he stared back at Li Huowang.

“Then let me tell you! I do know! You think you're the only one who has experienced hallucinations? Wrong! I was once like that as well, but I managed to overcome it, and now, I'm a qualified doctor! So, I'm far stronger than you, you coward!” shouted Wang Wei.

As they continued to fight fiercely, a syringe suddenly plunged into Li Huowang's arm from the side. Immediately, Li Huowang felt as though his brain had rusted as his movements became sluggish and he suddenly felt very weak.

Wang Wei, along with his student, supported Li Huowang and restrained him to the bed once again.

Then, Wang Wei stuck his fingers into his mouth to massage his slightly loosened teeth while gasping for air. “This young man hasn’t had any exercise for a long time, but his strength is still quite impressive.”

“Teacher, you...” Dr. Hou looked puzzled. Though he had heard of his unique style of doing things when they first met, he still found it quite unusual to see a doctor engage a patient in physical combat.

No matter what happens in the hallucination, I must try to remain as calm as possible.

Li Huowang pondered these matters as he silently walked back.

On the way back, Li Huowang saw the others looking around while carrying torches. It seemed like they were all looking for him; from the looks of it, he had walked quite far.

Li Huowang could see the fear in their eyes. He did not say anything, and just continued to walk back.

When he returned to their previous location, he saw that everyone was back.

Li Huowang appeared behind Bai Lingmiao, and said, “I’m back.”

Hearing his voice, Bai Lingmiao shuddered and slowly turned around, revealing the bruised right side of her face to him.

When he saw this, an intense sense of self-blame washed over him, making it hard for him to breathe. It was clear that he was the one who had inflicted those injuries on her.

On the other hand, tears welled up in Bai Lingmiao’s eyes as she hugged Li Huowang, “That’s great, Senior Li! I thought I’d never see you again!”

Seeing this, Li Huowang wrapped his trembling hands around Bai Lingmiao, as if he wanted to pull her toward him.

Once his sense of self-blame lessened, a strong sense of fear swept over him. It was fortunate that he had only punched someone this time. But what if he had a knife next time around?

Despair inducing images flashed through Li Huowang's mind, causing his pupils to tremble slightly.

Even though he didn’t say a word, Bai Lingmiao seemed to be able to sense what he was thinking as she reached out with her fair hand to stroke his back. “Senior Li, it's okay. I know you didn’t mean it. It's just a little bit of swelling; it'll be gone in a few days.”

However, her words couldn’t improve Li Huowang's mood. He whispered softly in her ear, “Promise me, if there’s a next time, you... will stay further away from me.”

“Alright,” Bai Lingmiao nodded obediently, her true thoughts remaining unknown to him.

Li Huowang's gaze slowly moved past Bai Lingmiao's shoulder, and his emotions became increasingly resolute. In the end, his gaze settled on the line of words that he had carved into the ground.

Among the members of Sitting Oblivion Dao, there is a high-ranking person who is also a Strayed One. He has lived to the age of 190 and has completely shaken off the hallucinations brought about by being a Strayed One.
