Chapter Forty-Three: Awakening
In the combat against the owl, Xiang Kun gained an upper hand. Hence, the subsequent close-quarter combat turned into a last-ditch resistance of the owl. He did get scratched and quite a few bones were broken, but as far as he was concerned, they were all considered "skin-deep injuries".
After killing the owl, Xiang Kun could no longer contain himself and started to drink the blood from the owl's wounds fervently.
Xiang Kun didn't have a measuring cup, he didn't know how much blood he drank, but he knew it was plentiful.
He did not even remember when he fell asleep.
As for the vanished body of the owl, not even a trace of blood was left. After witnessing the mysterious disappearance of feathers, Xiang Kun had developed a psychological expectation for such occurrences.
