Chapter 365: Chapter 357: Where Are Those Who Created Supreme Martial Arts? (Please Subscribe)
There was a time when she still remembered Chen Fan leading the Hunting Team to the Song Family Castle, being targeted by bandits, and finding themselves in a perilous situation.
How long has it been? And now Chen Fan?
"Let’s go in and talk."
Meng Xue pulled her arm, leading her back inside and closing the door.
On the table, those six Celestial God Fruits were so eye-catching.
"Sister, are these the Celestial God Fruits? They’re so beautiful."
Meng Yu couldn’t help but walk over, staring at them.
"Yes, these are Celestial God Fruits."
Meng Xue came over, sat down beside the table, her expression complicated.
"Sister, why do you look unhappy?" Meng Yu blinked in confusion. Awakening with these six Celestial God Fruits not only boosted their strength but also extended their lifespans. Wasn’t this a great joy?
"Unhappy?"
Meng Xue came back to her senses, forced a smile, and said, "How could I not be happy to spend more time by your side? It’s just that I’m still a bit worried inside."
"Sister, you’re worried that after we all move into Anshan City, a Beast Tide will break out, right?"
"Yes."
Meng Xue sighed softly, saying, "Anshan City is on the outermost edge, and calling it a medium-sized city’s barrier wouldn’t be an exaggeration. The same applies to other medium-sized cities. Only large cities and the three super large cities can be considered safe.
Even if Chen Fan can withstand the first wave of the Beast Tide, other cities might not be able to. At that point, vast tracts of land will fall, and Anshan City could very likely become an isolated island. Its fall would only be a matter of time."
After speaking, she sighed again.
Meng Yu also fell silent.
She could imagine the scene that her sister had described.
But soon, a smile appeared on her face, and she said, "Sister, I think we should have faith in Chen Fan. He’s a man of his word. Just like this time, he said he would fetch six Celestial God Fruits, and he did, right?
Now, he’s going to lead everyone to Anshan City. He must have confidence that he can lead everyone to fend off the Fierce Beasts and protect the city."
"You might be right."
Meng Xue smiled.
"See?"
Meng Yu’s smile became even brighter.
But Meng Xue sighed inwardly. If only Anshan City’s location were more inside, even if it were besieged, it could at least coordinate with the surrounding medium to large cities.
But it was too far out.
"We can only take one step at a time."
She thought to herself.
After leaving, Chen Fan didn’t immediately go anywhere else, nor did he sell the Commander-level Fierce Beast Materials in his hand or return to Anshan City for Alchemy. Instead, he turned towards the place where the old man who sold Cultivation Techniques lived.
Nowadays, he almost possessed all Martial Arts below Supreme Martial Arts. Even if the old man had something good, he might not think much of it.
But what if?
What if he had one or two Supreme Martial Arts? That would save him a lot of points.
A hundred or two hundred meters away, he was there in no time.
From a distance, he could hear the strong voice of the other party.
"What? The people in the village are moving into Anshan City?"
"Yes, just now an Awakener from Anshan City came and said our village people could move to Anshan City for free. Brother Chen agreed and told us to pack our things and head to Anshan City tomorrow morning. Grandpa, do you think it’s reliable?" a middle-aged woman’s voice sounded.
"Reliable? Like hell it is!"
The old man cursed, "Those Awakeners in Anshan City are rotten to the core! To them, people like us mean nothing. Hmm, letting us move to Anshan City for free? It’s like a weasel wishing a chicken a Happy New Year, no good intentions!"
"Really?"
The middle-aged woman exclaimed in terror, "Then, what should we do? Brother Chen has already said we’re leaving tomorrow morning."
"Unbelievable!"
The old man said with pain and regret, "That Chen Guodong, he’s still too young. With just a few words from someone, he fell for it. Did he even think for a moment? If there were really such good things, could it fall to him?"
"Yes, I think so too. Grandpa, you have a good relationship with Brother Chen. Could you talk to Brother Chen and persuade him to change his mind?"
"I, I..."
The old man stammered, "I may have a good relationship with that Chen kid, but that doesn’t mean I get along with his father."
"Then what?"
The middle-aged woman half-opened her lips, not knowing what to say.
"Ahem."
At that moment, a cough sounded.
"Brother Chen!"
The middle-aged woman immediately widened her eyes.
Another younger woman also stood up from her chair in fear, not knowing where to put her hands and feet.
"Brother Chen?"
The old man’s face immediately showed an ingratiating smile, "Why are you here? And without a prior notice."
"You guys go out first."
Chen Fan glanced at the two women.
"Yes."
The two looked at each other as if wanting to say something but obediently left.
Chen Fan looked with interest at the old man’s now plump face and sat down heavily on a chair, saying, "You seem to be doing quite well recently, gaining some weight."
"That’s because of your good fortune, Brother Chen."
The old man smiled obsequiously.
These past days, he lay in bed without needing to work, having meals served to him, and living a life of ease, almost forgetting about Chen Fan.
