This was the first time anyone had ever said they'll think about Xie Wuking's demand. He was always careful to choose people with no backing, and the usual responses were either immediate submission or refusal, which was followed by a beating during the challenge.
Bullies didn't manage to process Lee's words, when he already limped inside and closed the door behind him. He didn't lie – he was dead tired and the pain in his leg was excruciating. Normally it would've been healed by now, but him getting carried and then shaken in the wagon didn't allow the water spark to fix the leg on its own.
His new room wasn't big, nevertheless, he barely made it to his bed and immediately passed out. It looked like the next day was going to be as exhausting.
