As soon as he finished speaking, a particularly ferocious expression suddenly appeared on his face. He then forcefully spat to the ground, and two bloody teeth rolled out of his mouth.
A murmur of surprise rippled through the crowd.
They never expected that such a frail woman could beat such a burly and fierce-looking man into such a state.
At this moment, Li Chang'an didn't care about the astonished looks from the people around her. She glanced at the two bloody teeth on the ground with disgust, then turned around and chased after Liang Xuanjing in the direction he had just fled.
"Ugh... Ptooey! My teeth, my teeth..."
Meanwhile, the burly man whose two teeth had been knocked out whimpered a few times, then spat out a mouthful of blood onto the ground. He then looked at the two freshly knocked-out teeth on the ground with a sob in his voice, his eyes filled with an indescribable sense of misery.
Everyone stared in disbelief as the grown man sat on the ground and began to cry, a stark contrast to his previous street thug persona.
Actually, crying isn't the problem; the problem is that his mouth, revealing a dark gap where his front teeth should be, combined with his swollen face, makes him look truly ridiculous.
Some people couldn't help but chuckle with glee, marveling at the shrewd and powerful moves of the female warrior who had just upheld justice.
But after a moment, these people stopped laughing.
The burly man's weeping and wailing abruptly stopped, his expression becoming increasingly ferocious and terrifying. His face grew redder and redder, and his eyes, bloodshot and burning with raging fury, made him look exceptionally frightening.
Then the man pulled out his sharp scimitar and charged straight at Li Chang'an like a maddened beast.
His eyes blazed with hatred, making the specks of blood at the corners of his mouth look particularly horrifying.
He thought to himself that he had always been arrogant and domineering in the capital, but today he had been beaten into such a sorry state by a woman. How could he ever stand here again?
What's even more infuriating is that the other party actually pretended to be blind in order to lower our guard. A group of people were completely fooled by a woman. We must get our revenge today!
The burly man grew increasingly enraged, his steps quickening as he pointed the sharp tip of his knife at Li Chang'an's back; the two were now only a few meters apart.
Once he catches up, he can strike with his knife and kill the enemy instantly, and all the humiliation and pain he has just endured will vanish.
Everyone immediately gasped – what a desperate scoundrel!
At the same time, they couldn't help but feel secretly worried for the female warrior.
After all, it was an unarmed woman fighting against a burly man wielding a weapon; the disparity in strength between the two was too great. Yet, amidst the fear, everyone also felt a sense of anticipation.
They had just witnessed the heroine's strength, but they didn't know what kind of thrilling scene they would see this time.
Although the surroundings were in complete chaos, Li Chang'an still keenly sensed the approaching danger.
Just as the burly man with the knife was about to catch up, she suddenly turned slightly to the side, quickly grabbed his wrist, and twisted it forcefully.
Click.
That's the sound of bones breaking.
The man immediately screamed in agony, and the scimitar in his hand clattered to the ground.
Then, he reached out his other hand and tremblingly supported his broken hand.
At this moment, all the muscles on this person's face seemed to be twitching incessantly, making him look so ugly and ferocious.
This dramatic 180-degree reversal happened in an instant, but it was enough to leave the onlookers breathless.
On the other hand, Bai Ruohan was also experiencing a terrifying mental breakdown.
After being threatened by Feng Beichuan, the doctor confessed without being asked.
The allies they originally sought with ulterior motives have now instantly become the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Bai Ruohan's expression changed drastically at this moment. She never expected that this person would recant his testimony so quickly.
Before she could even open her mouth to explain, she heard Feng Beichuan's slightly deep voice.
"Miss Bai, are you still going to try to deny it?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Ruohan was speechless.
Indeed, she had nothing left to argue about. Continuing to struggle in vain would only make her a laughingstock.
Rather than continuing to do something so humiliating, it's better to just admit it openly.
So Bai Ruohan stopped arguing and instead raised her head with her last bit of pride to look directly at Feng Beichuan, saying, "Since that's the case, then I have nothing more to say. Since you think I'm faking it, then I'm faking it! The Regent is indeed worthy of being called the Regent; such a skillful tactic has truly left this humble woman with nowhere to turn."
Bai Ruohan's words were extremely skillful; she neither directly admitted to what she had done, nor denied anything, but subtly passed the buck back to the person she was dealing with.
Moreover, her words also implied that the other party was bullying her.
After hearing what the other party said, Liu Mengwan couldn't help but shake her head helplessly—this woman was truly eloquent.
However, since she is unwilling to admit it herself, I don't mind saying it for her.
Then, Liu Mengwan slowly said, "As for whether you're faking it or not, that's not for us to decide. Putting aside the problem with your pulse, just look at how you seemed to be in pain every time I applied acupuncture to you. And when I did moxibustion, if you were really unconscious, how could you feel the heat? Let me tell you the truth, that last one was intentional. I just wanted to see how much you could endure!"
At this moment, Liu Mengwan's face had completely lost its gentle and serene appearance, instead displaying a newfound air of authority and domineering presence.
Although this woman looks gentle and weak, she is quite decisive when it comes to right and wrong.
"you……"
After hearing what the other party said, Bai Ruohan immediately became furious and embarrassed. She angrily pointed at Liu Mengwan but couldn't say anything coherent.
The thought that this woman had dared to deliberately burn him with fire made Bai Ruohan furious.
Moreover, that woman not only showed no remorse, but was also incredibly arrogant.
This is absolutely outrageous!
