Chapter 903: Finally Awake

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

Chu Pengzhao was eating instant noodles with his daughter and her friends. With every bite, he could tell that they were dispirited. He couldn"t lift up their mood, so he decided to leave after finis.h.i.+ng with his meal. “I"ll head out first, you girls should take care of yourself and rest up too, it"s been a long day,”

“Okay…” Chu Mengyao nodded. She respected her dad and his suggestions.

Chu Pengzhao looked around once more and left the villa.

With the clock ticking, minute by minute had gone by. In a blink of an eye, it was already 1 AM. Even if it was uneventful, the three girls didn"t feel tired at all.

“Chu Mengyao, Chen Yushu, you can go rest? I"ll be fine here watching Lin Yi. You don"t have to accompany me…” Tang Yun felt that Chen Yushu looked pitiful as she was barely managing to stay awake.

“We aren"t accompanying you, we are also waiting for Lin Yi to wake up. It was our fault that he was injured…” Chu Mengyao smiled weakly at Tang Yun"s words.

” Yes, that is right. We are more worried about s.h.i.+eld bro than you are!” Tang Yun nodded.

“Oh… I"m afraid that if all three of us continue like this then none of us will be able to last.” Tang Yun explained. “We could not sleep for one day, but what happens if he doesn"t wake up for two or three days? Would we not sleep for those three days? What happens if we were asleep when Lin Yi wakes up and needs our help. What should we do then?”

“You are right with that logic…” Chu Mengyao nodded after hearing Tang Yun speak. “In that case should we implement a s.h.i.+ft rotation? One person sleeps while the other two are awake?”

“I was thinking the same thing…” Tang Yun nodded. “Chen Yushu, you look the most tired. You can rest first, okay?”

“No way, you can go first. I"m not tired… I was just yawning…” Chen Yushu yawned twice in a row. Chen Yushu was quite tired, her const.i.tution was weaker than Chu Mengyao. Even the last time she was kidnapped by Zhong Pinliang, she didn"t stay awake for as long as Chu Mengyao.

“Yushu, go to sleep. Listen to our suggestions! It"s for your own good,” Chu Mengyao ordered Chen Yushu.

“Ah… Okay,” Chen Yushu agreed. Once the agreement was reached, there was no reason for her to force herself to stay awake. She needed to recover quickly to wait for Lin Yi to wake up…

Chen Yushu yawned once more as she struggled up the stairs. General Wu glanced up to see Chen Yushu pa.s.s by and he remained on the floor.

Three days later, even the girls lost count of how many times they had switched rotations. No one was actually counting. It was just brainless repeat of waking up, eating, and then going back to sleep. After countless instant noodles, another day was ending…

That was when Lin Yi finally made some noise in the eerily quiet villa.

Tang Yun and Chen Yushu were the ones awake when they heard movement they quickly ran into the room.

They were cautious, they didn"t dare make too much noise as they scramble over in. They tiptoed as they gently pushed open the door, just enough to peek at Lin Yi"s bed…

Lin Yi"s eyelid moved, it felt heavy to him. Somehow, he struggled enough to open up his eyes…

“Ahh!” Lin Yi yawned. He was finally able to wake up! After such severe injuries, this was his first! At most, he would"ve recovered after a night of sleep. He should"ve increased his power after recovering. He had to spend three days and nights to recover his vitality, but his strength didn"t recover at all!

Normally, he would cycle through his Art of Dragon to recover, but Lin Yi found how painfully slow it is to recover like a normal person. His inner meridians were all shattered, he could only sc.r.a.pe by with the small amount of energy circulating within his body. He was no different than a normal person at this rate!

Even if he wanted to leave the jade pendant dimension, Lin Yi couldn"t return. He was disappointed that he was trapped. He fell from his position as a top fighter into a normal person. All in an instant! However, Lin Yi didn"t regret it at all!

During that situation, Lin Yi didn"t have the luxury to choose. If he didn"t use his pure energy as an explosive, he would"ve lost!

The main reason behind his logic was that Ma Zhu was a peak physical master who had trained his body to become impenetrable. Lin Yi was two grades lower in power difference. How could a peak early phase spiritual master compete against a peak mid-phase physical master? No matter how you calculated it, the spiritual master was at a disadvantage. How was Ma Zhu"s condition compared to him?

Even if he had no chance of winning, Lin Yi tried his best. It was a situation where he had to risk a lot to gain something.

If he had followed Jiao Zizi"s advice and left a third of his energy as reserves, then he would"ve had to use two-thirds of the pure energy as explosive power. Would it still produce the same destructive power? Lin Yi couldn"t guarantee that…

Even at 100% of pure energy destruction, Ma Zhu still didn"t die. He only had an arm destroyed. If he had spared some energy as a backup and used two-thirds of the energy then what will the outcome of the blast be like? If it didn"t work then he would"ve wasted two-thirds of that energy. What will he do with one-third of the pure energy left in him?

So even if he had a choice of whether to do it the same way or not, Lin Yi wouldn"t hesitate to do it again!

How else could he consider himself a dutiful follower? Even if Chu Pengzhao"s initial intentions were for him to accompany the Miss for daily life activities, Lin Yi did that and beyond! He accomplishes his responsibility for money, but also for friends.h.i.+p!

He felt that he was friends with Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu, so with that in mind, he was willing to go all out. Otherwise, do you think Lin Yi would fight to the death for just a mere thirty thousand yuan? Definitely not!

“Lin Yi, are you awake?” Tang Yun whispered as she ran over.

Chen Yushu didn"t hesitate at all. She darted over and said “I know that s.h.i.+eld bro is definitely going to be fine. He is the best!”

“Ah…” Lin Yi might have been asleep, but he knew about what had happened these few days. He couldn"t force his body to wake up since it was too weak. He had to wait for his injuries to recover. “Thank you girls, for staying with me for three days and nights!”

“Oh?” Tang Yun and Chen Yushu were shocked that he knew how many days he was unconscious.

“I might have looked unconscious, but I knew what was happening!” Lin Yi spoke up. “Oh yeah, you girls can go rest now, I"m fine now. Okay?”

“No no… We aren"t tired…” Tang Yun shook her head.

“Oh yeah, s.h.i.+eld bro, you should be hungry by now. What do you want to eat? I can make you something to eat!” Chen Yushu replied.

“Oh, I don"t want to eat anything. I just want to rest more. You girls can go rest. I need it to be quiet to rest,” Lin Yi noticed that Tang Yun and Chen Yushu both had red eyes, as a sign that they weren"t been resting at all. His words would force them to rest.
