Online: I Can See Health Bars Chapter 1639 - 735: Team Meeting_2
Previously on Online: I Can See Health Bars...
"This power, at its core, is actually two-way. It’s just that I’m inside Sui Chong Pass, inside the checkpoints my master and Master Ouyang painstakingly set up for me, inside the Array. As long as Sui Chong Pass doesn’t fall, I can still control this power, make it my aid instead of letting it turn into a Power of Death that drags me toward annihilation."
"But as this power grows stronger, even though I’ve followed my master in constant cultivation, constantly growing, with Sui Chong Pass at my back, we’ve already started to be unable to suppress it."
"One day, I will die—and right now, my time of death is already drawing near."
Chen Yunyun looked frankly at Fang Yu and Ding Hui.
"If I have any wish left before I die, it’s that... my only living relative can return safely."
As Chen Yunyun spoke, very old memories surfaced in her mind.
In the memories, she was clutching the stolen steamed bun with tear-filled eyes, yet was still forced into a corner by two men.
As those two men grabbed her wrists—
The two of them went down as if electrocuted, collapsing onto the ground, eyes wide, drool hanging stupidly from the corners of their mouths, not moving at all.
And she ’luckily’ escaped disaster.
After that came the rumors.
Rumors of the "Dry Death Disease."
Drowning to death on dry land—that was Dry Death Disease.
Such a bizarre illness: clearly there wasn’t a single trace of water on the body, yet they died as if they’d drowned, unable to breathe, slowly dying in agonized struggle.
The terrifying manner of death sparked panic in the region.
And the most terrifying part was... this disease was still spreading.
Every so often, some solitary person would be found dead in their home.
Succeeding again and again made the naive Chen Yunyun think she was only putting people in their beds into a deep sleep, then secretly eating a bit of the owner’s food, that was all.
Only after she saw the proclamations and heard the rumors did she realize what she had done.
Then came the hunts, the wanted notices, and terrifying rumors that as her special constitution grew ever stronger, a single touch meant instant death.
If she hadn’t met her master, she would’ve died long ago, cut down by someone’s Sword, never living to reach the current level of her White Spot Body, surpassing the limit of what her body should be able to endure.
Chen Yunyun took a deep breath, pulled herself out of the memories, and looked at Fang Yu.
"Young Master Diao, I’m going to rescue my master, no matter what price I have to pay!"
She’s really determined...
Fang Yu glanced at Ding Hui, not wanting to respond, but the latter gave a slight nod.
"Lord Yun, rest assured, as long as the payment is suitable, we will give it our all!"
This was said on Fang Yu’s behalf.
"Good."
As her words fell, Chen Yunyun shot a look at one of her subordinates.
The subordinate understood at once, jogged a couple of steps ahead, and ordered someone to unlock the door.
So they were already right in front of the treasure vault.
With the three in place, Chen Yunyun pushed open the treasure vault’s main door.
"You two, this is Sui Chong Pass’s warehouse."
As the door swung open, a blinding golden radiance immediately spilled out from inside.
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly; turned out it was a pile of gleaming armor and weapons, all reflecting the torchlight.
Fang Yu moved closer for a look: the pile of weapons and armor was stacked to the height of a small hill.
He casually picked up a piece of armor and hefted it; it was actually made of silver—this had to be quite valuable, right?
He turned back, intending to discuss with Ding Hui, only to see Ding Hui already pouncing onto a heap of herbs, eyes shining.
"This Flowing Light Firefly Transformation Grass, we’re taking it! This Sound Concealing Earth Worm, it’s got three hundred years on it, right? Nice, you people even have this? We’ll take it, we’ll take it! And this... no! One-seventh—of all the medicinal materials here, we’re taking them! Count all of them into our one-seventh share!"
Ding Hui was downright overbearing.
Just a moment ago she’d been talking to him about running away, and now she was already carving up the piles of medicinal materials in the treasure vault.
This girl... did she forget the main point? We’re only pretending to agree; we’re not actually here to risk our lives for them!
"Ahem!"
Fang Yu hurriedly coughed twice in a row, trying to yank Ding Hui’s attention back.
He hadn’t expected Ding Hui to roll her eyes at him, then her voice rang directly in Fang Yu’s mind.
"Go pick your own stuff!"
Wh-what??
Fang Yu was dumbfounded.
What kind of line was that?
What about our plan?
What about playing them with fake sincerity?
All of it—snap—and gone??
Fang Yu glared over at Ding Hui, but Ding Hui wasn’t paying him any mind at all. Instead she was dragging Chen Yunyun around, asking where the demon materials were stored, where the Medicine Recipes were kept, this one reserved, that one reserved.
If Chen Yunyun didn’t occasionally remind her which items had already been reserved by other members of the team and would have to be negotiated once everyone met, Fang Yu would really think Ding Hui was here on a massive shopping spree.
What, you just wave your hand and everything belongs to you? Nobody else wants anything?
Only you have good taste? Anyone able to pull connections with gatekeepers of Chen Yunyun’s master’s generation, anyone who can show up to take part in this rescue operation as a mercenary—who among them isn’t shrewd as hell? You think they’d leave the good stuff just sitting here for us?
Fang Yu still wanted to throw Ding Hui some meaningful looks, but Ding Hui kept ignoring him, circling the treasure vault with Chen Yunyun, pointing at anything she took an interest in to claim it first.
Chen Yunyun was helpless, and even called out toward the door, summoning the people outside to come in specifically to record the items Ding Hui was naming.
Fang Yu watched Ding Hui go from pile to pile as if browsing for clothes on a shopping trip, and without realizing it she had already monopolized a huge pile of stuff.
And because they had one-seventh of the total share, even after monopolizing so much, they still had room to choose more.
"Two-polar Yin Yang Grass?!"
Just as Fang Yu was thinking this, Ding Hui’s voice suddenly shot up in pitch.
