Episode 3

The night got gloomier, and the air felt chilly. Li Na inspected her surroundings to find a way out of the woods. If she spent the night in such a cold place, she would have become a dead person for the second time.

"I can believe you live such a disastrous life. Your entire life was miserable, and now that I am in your body, I have become the pathetic one. A top assassin like me with a degree in master medication and business has time-traveled into a vulnerable body. Ha, what a twist!" Li Na mumbles in frustration as she walks into the woods.

Halfway into the woods, Li Na felt this uncomfortable sensation. The aphrodisiac effect did not cease in Li Na's body when she died. Therefore, when Huang took over her body, the drug became active again.

Li Na's ardor for sensual satisfaction burns through her body like wildfire. She was getting hotter by the second, and the cold breeze was not making her situation any better.

Her every step sent a piercing pain tearing through her tissues and bones. Li Na wrapped her hand around her shoulder and shivered. Li Na's tried to keep it together, but her body was excessively bruised and exhausted to support the tension she was experiencing.

Cold tears ran from her dizzy eyes as Li Na's desire she could quit struggling to live and give in to death again for the second time. However, she did not stop and kept advancing further into the woods with only revenge as her motivation.

Her body was at its last might when Li Na saw a glance of hope. There was a cave in the hill with light flickering out of it. The flush of happiness in her eyes could be compared to that of a fire.

Li Na mounted up the last of her energy and ran toward the light until she arrived at the mouth of the cage.

"Who are you?" A harsh yet manly voice asked from inside the cave.

Li Na remained at the dark entrance of the cage and made no further movement to enter. She looked to where the voice came from and saw a handsome and well-built man with long white hair, white eyelashes, and brows, with blue eyes holding a dagger in his hand.

Although he seemed wounded, Li Na could tell that he still had a lot of force in him to slay her before she could even make a move.

"I am not a threat but a wounded woman who has nowhere else to go and needs to seek refuge in this cave if you will allow me."

"If you are not a threat like you said, then step into the light and let me see your face!"

Li Na took a few steps forward and stopped when she reached a bit closer to him. Li Na could tell that he was a nobleman from his clothes and fair skin.

"You can sit in the next corner, far away from me!" He said before looking back at the cave entrance.

Li Na did as he had instructed her to do. As she rested in the corner, her eyes caught a glance of the wound on his side, and from the dark blood that was spiting out of it, Li Na knew that the weapon used to stab him had been poison.

Without thinking, Li Na got up from her and moved closer to him.

"What are you doing? I told you to stay far away from me." He shouted at her.

Li Na did not listen to him. She gently touches the wound and then gazes at the blood on her finger.

"Yep, I'm right. You got poisoned with snake venom, and if the wound does not get treated before tomorrow, you will be a dead man. Now, do you want me to stay away from you or help you remove the poison?"

"Are you kind of doctor?" He asked with a doubtful gaze in his eyes.

"Not really. But I did study medicine. I am not obligated to help you, so it is fine by me if you don't trust my ability and choose death."

"You can help me. But if you do any suspicious activity, I would hesitate to slay your throat with this blade."

"You are so bossy. Being handsome is not the only thing that counts. A decent attitude also attracts women." Li Na said with a frown as she ripped open his shirt. She lusts for a second at his attractive body.

"My wound is on my side, not on my chest. If you get done devouring my body in your mind, can you focus on my injury, doctor!" He coldly said.

Li Na moved her eyes and concentrated on his side.

"Do you have water?" Li Na harshly asked. He did not speak and handed her a container of water.

Li Na accepted the water and rinsed the area around the bite site with water to remove any venom that might remain on the skin. She then put her lips over the wound and sucked the poison out, then spit it into the fire.

Huang knew as a modern-day woman and medical student that sucking poison out of someone was dangerous. However, she is now Li Na and in ancient times with no herbs around her to use. Therefore, tonight Li Na could only get the poison out of his system and wait for tomorrow to get him to a doctor.

She then took his knife from him and placed it in the fire. When it got heated, she placed it on his injury.

He did not scream the entire time the hot blade rested on his skin. Finally, Li Na got finished and pulled away for him.

"I am done!"

"Thank you. I am Shing. May I know your name?" He said.

"I am Li..." Li Na did not finish her statement and fell to the ground.

Shing rushed toward her and placed his hands on her forehead to monitor her temperature, then he checked her pulse.

Li Na was not self-aware anymore. She had entirely lost control of herself, and she kept mumbling. "Help me! I am hot!"

"She's been drugged with an aphrodisiac and has been suppressing it for too long. If she does not sleep with someone now, her life will be in danger." Shing thought.
