Chapter 364: Chapter 356 A-level Awakened? (Request Subscription)
"What’s happening outside?"
Meng Xue lay on the bed and glanced outside through the window.
At this moment, she looked even more haggard compared to a few days ago.
"I don’t know."
Meng Yu looked outside upon hearing her, then carefully brought over a bowl of porridge, blowing on it to cool it down. "Sister, drink this hot porridge and you’ll feel better."
Meng Xue managed a bitter smile. "Just put it down, I’ll drink it when I feel hungry later."
Meng Yu shook her head firmly. "Sister, you haven’t eaten anything since morning, it’s almost noon now. How will you have the strength if you don’t eat?"
"Alright then."
Meng Xue felt somewhat helpless, but more so moved.
But after just a few sips, she suddenly vomited.
"Sister!"
Meng Yu was startled, quickly standing up to put the porridge aside and using a cloth to wipe the bedding.
"Sister, you?"
She looked up, her eyes filled with worry.
In the morning, it was the same when she ate.
Now, it’s the same.
She couldn’t help but recall that when her grandfather was dying, he too would vomit whatever little he ate, and soon passed away.
"It’s nothing, Yu, just resting a bit will make me better."
Meng Xue forced a smile, her face pale.
She estimated that she had only a month left to live.
However, a few days ago, she overused her powers, worsening her condition.
But she had to do it.
Because if anything happened to Chen Fan, the entire Chen Family Fortress would face disaster, and even if she were alive, she’d be powerless to help.
"Sister..."
Meng Yu’s eyes reddened.
"Alright, you’re not a child anymore, don’t cry." Meng Xue reached out her frail arm to wipe her sister’s tears. "It seems something happened outside just now, go and take a look."
"Okay."
Meng Yu wiped her tears, took a few more worried glances, and then turned to leave.
Just as she stepped out, a burly figure approached.
"Chen Fan?"
Meng Yu’s eyes widened in surprise and joy.
"It’s me."
Chen Fan smiled at her. "Is your sister inside?"
"Yes, she is."
Meng Yu hurriedly wiped her tears and returned inside excitedly, "Sister, Chen Fan is here."
Chen Fan entered the room, looking at Meng Xue lying on the bed. He frowned, sensing her aura had become even weaker.
"Chen Fan, you... you are here?"
Meng Xue smiled, struggling to sit up from the bed.
"No need to get up, just lie down."
Chen Fan waved his hand and sat down by the table, saying, "Your condition seems to be getting worse."
Meng Xue smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say.
Meng Yu felt both tense and anxious.
She recalled clearly that today was the day the Celestial God Fruit would mature. There would be twelve in total, and her sister said that with six, she would have a 100% chance of awakening again.
But six fruits? If they were purchased from the Awakened Association, it would require 300,000 points! One point’s purchasing power equals 10,000 yuan, but 10,000 yuan can’t exchange for one point.
Just thinking about it revealed the extent of the risks involved.
"I have brought the six Celestial God Fruits."
As the words fell, the room fell silent, as if a pin could be heard dropping.
Both sisters opened their mouths wide in astonishment.
Chen Fan’s right hand moved over the table, and six bright red Celestial God Fruits appeared neatly on the table.
The aroma filled the room.
Meng Xue’s inner shock had reached its peak.
Although she had never consumed such fruits, she had seen them before.
They looked exactly like the ones in front of her.
Chen Fan had really accomplished it?
"Are these the Celestial God Fruits?"
Meng Yu showed a face full of shock.
Then she began to count seriously, "One, two, three, four, five, six? Six Celestial God Fruits!!"
The next second, she trembled with joy, turning to Meng Xue with a voice full of excitement, "Sister, six Celestial God Fruits! We’re saved! We’re saved!"
Tears flowed from her eyes like a river breaking through its banks.
"Yes."
Meng Xue’s eyes glistened with tears.
In this world, no one is unafraid of death, including her.
Moreover, she had finally reunited with her sister, and just a few days later, they were supposed to be separated by death again. The thought of it always cut her heart like a knife.
But she had no choice; she knew the location of the Celestial God Fruits, but even in her prime, she would be going to her death.
Much less, she needed more than just one.
At this moment, Chen Fan had promised her that he would get her the six Celestial God Fruits.
Of course, she hoped Chen Fan could do it, but it was not easy; if something happened to Chen Fan, she would be guilty for life.
Yet, it was not even noon, and Chen Fan had arrived with six mature Celestial God Fruits.
"Chen... Chen Fan," she said, trying hard to get out of bed.
"Sister!"
Meng Yu was startled and rushed to support her.
Seeing this, Chen Fan shook his head calmly, "Lie back down, there’s no need for gratitude. I promised you to bring the six Celestial God Fruits, so I wouldn’t break my word. However, you must understand, it’s not for free."
"I know."
Meng Xue nodded quickly, looking at Chen Fan with gratitude, "After awakening again, I will work for you, helping you foresee anything you want to know."
"Do what you can."
Chen Fan glanced at her, "I don’t want to see you use up your life quickly again, otherwise, I’d still be the one searching for these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for you."
Hearing this, Meng Yu couldn’t help but laugh.
Meng Xue also smiled, then apologized, "Sorry, Chen Fan, for making you take such a big risk this time. You didn’t get hurt, did you?"
Meng Yu’s smile disappeared, and she nervously examined Chen Fan.
"I’m fine."
Chen Fan smiled.
He recalled the furious appearance of the Celestial God Tree.
Of course, he was reasonable.
The bodies of the three commander-level fierce beasts were too large; at most, he took the valuable materials from their bodies and left the rest in place.
He thought about it and moved the bodies of the three commander-level fierce beasts within the attack range of the Celestial God Tree as compensation.
Strictly speaking, the Celestial God Tree still profited, given that it could kill one commander-level fierce beast at most. Three, it never expected it would one day be able to do so, stunned into silence.
"Really, you’re not hurt?" Meng Yu asked softly.
"Don’t worry."
Chen Fan glanced at her, then extended his hand, and True Essence surged.
Meng Xue’s complexion immediately improved, and soon, her face gained a hint of color.
"Sister?"
Meng Yu’s eyes widened, seemingly unbelieving of such a miraculous event.
"Chen Fan, this, is this?"
Meng Xue’s eyes widened, feeling a surge of strength within, as if she had been reborn.
"I used the Divine Illumination Scripture to restore some primordial qi for you," Chen Fan withdrew his hand, "Unfortunately, it can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. At most, it can make you feel better for a few days."
"That’s enough."
Meng Xue expressed her gratitude, "Chen Fan, thank you for helping me so much."
Chen Fan shook his head and stood up, "That will be all for now. If you have any issues later, feel free to contact me. By the way, I forgot to mention one thing."
The sisters immediately perked up their ears.
"I plan to move everyone in the fortress to Anshan City. Just now, the people in the fortress heard about it. Tomorrow morning, Awakened from Anshan City will arrive to escort everyone. I will be there too, just in case. You should pack your things and leave with everyone tomorrow morning."
"Everyone, moving to Anshan City?"
Meng Yu was astonished.
That’s a small city, not a place everyone can go at will, especially considering that many of the fortress residents are elderly or children.
"So that’s what it’s about."
Meng Xue realized why there was commotion outside earlier.
"Alright, we’ll pack and leave with the group tomorrow morning."
"Okay."
Chen Fan nodded and headed for the door.
Meng Yu glanced at her sister, gathered her courage, and dashed out.
"?"
Chen Fan turned around, giving her a curious look.
"Chen... Chen Fan, this time, I really don’t know how to thank you."
Meng Yu blushed.
Chen Fan smiled slightly, "No need to be so polite. If it weren’t for your sister telling me about this, I wouldn’t have gotten the remaining six Celestial God Fruits. Besides, this is mutual benefit, isn’t it?"
"Yes, yes."
Meng Yu nodded repeatedly.
"Go back, your sister needs your care."
After speaking, Chen Fan disappeared instantly.
"?"
Meng Yu looked around blankly.
"Silly girl, he’s already gone."
Meng Xue came out of the room, amused.
"Gone, gone?"
Meng Yu shrank her neck in embarrassment.
She thought her eyes were playing tricks on her.
"Yes, for him to take twelve Celestial God Fruits at once, his strength must be formidable. Even if it’s not as strong as the A-level Awakened in big cities, it shouldn’t be far off." Meng Xue sighed.
"A... A-level Awakened?"
Meng Yu’s eyes widened.
It’s rumored that A-level Awakened have the power to match Beast King-level fierce beasts.
The number of A-level Awakened in the entire association doesn’t exceed a hundred.
Chen Fan, has he reached such a level of strength?
