With two loud bangs, two waves that were several meters high appeared on the surface of the lake.
If it was on land, then even ten Taitish combined wouldn't be a match for Zhao Chen. However, if the battle was underwater, then the result would be exactly the opposite.
Now that he was on his home ground, Taitish seemed to have a special status buff. It began to switch from passive to active close combat.
······
They had only exchanged a dozen moves, but Zhao Chen's body was already covered in several wounds from the angry Taitish. The most serious wound was on his lower abdomen, where the dagger had pierced a small part of it.
Fortunately, the cool pond water had awakened Taitish from her anger. Although she was still angry, she didn't kill him.
Moreover, seeing that Zhao Chen had risked his life to save her, Taitish's anger had dissipated a lot. Therefore, she did not really want to kill him. She only planned to slash him a few times and let him learn a lesson.
The stab in Zhao Chen's abdomen seemed very serious, but in fact, it did not hurt his spleen, liver, or abdominal artery. It was only a slightly serious skin injury.
This kind of external injury was not considered too serious. Even for ordinary people in the martial arts world, they would only need to recuperate for about a month at most, let alone a top-notch expert like Zhao Chen.
At this moment, Zhao Chen could no longer care about being attacked. He only wanted to surface and return to the shore as soon as possible.
As he was not very good at swimming, he could only choose to release his zhenqi from the soles of his feet and force his body to float. This was the stupidest and most laborious method.
If that was the case, it could be considered a life-saving method for Zhao Chen. However, the worst thing was that Taitish was still attacking him continuously. Therefore, it did not take long for Zhao Chen's True Qi to be almost exhausted.
Due to the lack of zhenqi, Zhao Chen could no longer maintain his internal breathing. The cool water of the pond kept pouring into his mouth and nose. His body was almost unable to continue floating and began to sink bit by bit.
At first, Taitish thought that Zhao Chen was just not good at swimming, so he pretended to be like this, hoping to trick her into letting her guard down so that she could take the opportunity to sneak attack. However, after a while, she realized that this was not the case.
This person was reputed to be the most talented genius in the Ming Cult's history. He was the direct disciple of the Ming Cult's cult master, Yang Dingtian, and the next cult master of the Ming Cult. However, he really didn't know how to swim. Furthermore, he had already lost half his life from choking on the water.
After noticing Zhao Chen's abnormality, Taitish was shocked.
He thought to himself,'It's fine if I teach him a lesson, but I can't let him die here. Otherwise, not only will I be unable to answer to Cult Master Yang, I won't be able to get over the hurdle in my heart.'
Although Taitish was a woman, she had a clear distinction between love and hate. At this moment, she already understood the cause and effect of the matter.
He understood that he had insulted the other party first, and the other party had retaliated and teased him later. She attacked to kill him, and the other party retaliated and took advantage of her. He wanted to commit suicide to prove his innocence, and the other party risked his life to save him.
However, he had taken advantage of the fact that he was unprepared to launch a sneak attack on the other party. No matter how he thought about it, he still felt that he was more wrong.
Taitish no longer cared about teaching him a lesson. She quickly swam to Zhao Chen's side and lifted him up to the surface.
However, when she saw the water pouring into her mouth and nose, and her opponent looked like he was about to suffocate and drown, Taitish couldn't help but hesitate for a moment. However, she gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
······
At this moment, it was a matter of life and death for Zhao Chen. Taitish couldn't care less. She paddled with her legs and floated to the surface of the pool.
Fortunately, Taitish was relieved to see the surface of the water less than ten meters above her head. She forced herself to be alert and used her inner force to tap on Zhao Chen's sleeping acupoint at the back of his neck, causing him to fall asleep.
