A flash of embarrassment crossed Lei Man's face, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say. Chu Lingjun took in her entire expression and understood immediately.
A wave of fury washed over her, and she demanded coldly, "You deceived me? You don't have a clue how to get out of here! You just made up all those lies to trick me into freeing you, didn't you?"
"You don't need to worry." Despite her embarrassment, Lei Man said calmly, "I told you I would get you out of here, and I will. I won't go back on my word."
Chu Lingjun snorted. "After you've already lied, who would be foolish enough to believe you now?"
With that, Chu Lingjun prepared to strike Lei Man.
Seeing this, Lei Man simply waved her hand, unleashing an immense power. Chu Lingjun's expression flickered as she moved quickly to block the attack. However, the force was so strong that she was knocked backward. A sharp, numbing sensation spread through her, making her deeply uncomfortable.
