Chapter 356: Waking Up
After staying in the room for a while, Chen Rou decided to leave.
After all, she still had her own work to do, and she carried a big responsibility.
In a sense, she was the representative of the government in this city. She was usually quite busy and had many things to take care of.
After the city had gone through some chaos, she had even more things to take care of. There were many things weighing on her, and needed her to take care of them herself.
Under such circumstances, for her to make time to come here was already quite good.
Staying here to watch over Chen Heng was not possible.
Fortunately, nothing much happened.
Chen Heng peacefully lay on his bed, and nothing out of the ordinary happened.
However, he did not show any signs of waking up either.
Everyone felt quite confused about this.
From his medical results, Chen Heng was not injured, and seemed completely fine.
In fact, all of his vitals were incredibly good, and were far better than those of ordinary people's.
And yet, he still did not wake up, and remained sleeping for many days.
No one knew what was going on.
The government had begun to gather Curse Bearers, trying to use their power to awaken Chen Heng.
However, no one knew how things would go.
Time gradually passed.
Many days later, it was early morning, and warm sunlight shone on the ground, dyeing the ground golden.
Chen Rou once again came to the hospital—this is something that she had begun to do regularly lately.
Even though she could not stay here for extended periods due to her work, she would still come here every morning to see if Chen Heng had made any improvement.
It was not just her; even Yang Cheng and Liang Xiao would occasionally come.
However, compared to Chen Rou, who had a high ranking and was Chen Heng's big sister, it was not so easy for the two of them to go in.
Moreover, the two of them had criminal records, so it was not so easy to go into places like this.
In actuality, if it wasn't for the fact that Chen Rou had kept her promise and had wiped out their criminal records, the government's people would have arrested them as soon as they saw them.
On this day, Chen Rou walked into the hospital as usual.
However, she felt that something was different.
Compared to before, this level was a bit too quiet.
This hospital was specialised for Curse Bearers, and there were less patients than an ordinary hospital.
However, it should not be so quiet.
Sensing this, Chen Rou felt that something was off.
She stood there for a moment before frowning and continuing onwards.
As she headed forwards, that feeling became stronger and stronger.
When she arrived at the familiar room, she found that there was no one there.
By now, someone should have appeared, but there was no one.
It was as if there was no one standing guard here.
Standing there, she became even more wary.
A bad feeling welled up within her, and she breathed in before walking into the room.
She was prepared to be attacked.
However, nothing happened.
She was not attacked, nor was she greeted.
The room was completely empty.
The guards responsible for Chen Heng had all disappeared.
Seeing this, Chen Rou's expression changed, and she quickly went up and pulled aside the blanket.
The body that should have been laying there was not there.
Under the blanket, it was not a human, but a dummy.
Chen Heng had been taken away, and it most likely was not the government's people.
If it was the government's people, they would have notified her, and even if they did not, it would be impossible to do this behind her back.
As such, it most likely was not the government.
But how was that possible?
She knew the strength standing guard int his place.
In order to protect Chen Heng, the government had gathered almost all of the reliable Curse Bearers in the city and stationed them around here.
There were more than 10 elite Curse Bearers, and even if people from the Alliance had come, they would not be able to take Chen Heng away without any commotion.
...........
This was quite incomprehensible.
Just what was going on?
Chen Rou did not hesitate and picked up her phone as she rushed out, reporting to the others.
Undoubtedly, this would cause large waves.
...
"Looks like everything went quite smoothly." A car stopped on a small road.
The elder and the young man sat within.
Of course, apart from them, there was a boy with them.
The boy was dressed in a white hospital gown and was still sleeping soundly.
It was Chen Heng.
"That girl Chen Rou would never imagine what happened." The elder shook his head, "At least half of the Curse Bearers in this city are our people."
"If it was me, I wouldn't expect such a thing either." The young man also shook his head as he spoke, "After all, it was a coincidence. If it wasn't for what happened back then, we would not have spent so much effort on this city.
"Who would have thought that even though that matter back then failed, our plans from back then had resulted in this."
"I never would have expected this either..." The elder nodded as he gave a slight smile, "Looks like we were quite lucky."
Back then, they had sent many of their people here for one of their plans.
Most of those people were quite reliable, and had infiltrated this place long ago. Some of the oldest ones had been here for decades.
After such a long time, they had gained the trust of the government, allowing them to easily succeed.
Looking at the sleeping Chen Heng, the elder smiled as he said, "Even though almost everyone has been exposed after this, but for this child to be in our hands, it was all worth it."
"Yes, it was worth it." The young man nodded as he agreed.
For them, their people hiding in the city were just pieces to be used, and were just waiting to show their value.
Now that they had been able to accomplish something like this, it was enough.
No matter how much they lost, as long as they could obtain Chen Heng, that was all that mattered.
In this world, he was the only thing that could fight against an Origin Curse.
For someone like this, it was worth to do something like this.
Thinking to there, they looked at each other and grinned.
They could already imagine what would happen next.
This matter was quite big.
After Chen Heng had been taken, the government's people would definitely go all-out in investigating, and would try to take Chen Heng back at all costs.
This was especially so for Chen Rou—after all, she was this Holy Son's big sister.
As such, they were not safe right now.
In order to avoid anything unexpected, they had to act quickly and move Chen Heng away.
As such, they did not hesitate and immediately left.
Time gradually passed.
Just as the two of them expected, the government reacted incredibly quickly to Chen Heng being taken.
The Alliance's members who had been spread out to maintain order had been called to block off any places where the kidnappers could be.
However, even so, after half a month, they still had not found anything.
It was as if those people had vanished from the world, and there were no traces of them.
It was just that some information pointed at the Ten Star Sect.
The Ten Star Sect was a secret organisation in this world that was primarily made up of Curse Bearers.
It was not that big in the Tiancheng Nation, bu tin other nations, it was quite powerful. It could even control the politics of some small nations.
It was most likely that the Ten Star Sect had done this.
Since that was the case, things would be quite troublesome.
After all, it was possible that they had already moved Chen Heng out of the country.
It would be very difficult for the Tiancheng Nation to use tis authority outside of the country, and do investigations.
In fact, foreign factions would try to stop them.
As such, the situation had become much more troublesome.
That was indeed what happened—when the government's people tried to request for aid from other nations to apply pressure on the Ten Star Sect, they were instead met with resistance.
Everyone was resisting them, making it so that they could not have their way.
Everyone understood why this was happening.
After all, compared to the Ten Star Sect, the Tiancheng Nation's strength was far more powerful.
If the Holy Son was in their hands, it would be very difficult to take him.
However, if it was the Ten Star Sect, they would have so hope.
In fact, many nations had invested in the Ten Star Sect, and could share Chen Heng with them.
Thus, it was evident who they would choose to help between the Ten Star Sect and the Tiancheng Nation.
Of course, Chen Heng did not know about any of this—right now, he was still unconscious.
Some time later, Chen Heng's eyelids flickered before he slowly opened his eyes.
He regained consciousness and looked around, feeling quite surprised.
He was in a very large room, and seemed like a room in a hospital.
It was just that he could tell he was not in the Changyuan City anymore.
" How long did I sleep for?" Chen Heng could not help but frown as he looked around.
He never thought that once he woke up, he would be in a completely different place.
However, he was able to accept it quite quickly.
It was just that the following scene caused him to feel quite surprised.
"You're awake?" It was as if someone sensed that Chen Heng was awake, and footsteps sounded out.
It was a woman in a white uniform.
She looked quite young, like she was in her early twenties. She looked quite different to the people of the Tiancheng Nation, and had golden hair, as well as looked quite beautiful.
"Who are you?" Looking at the woman, Chen Heng frowned and asked.
He could sense a unique aura from her body.
It was similar to the auras from Yang Cheng and Liang Xiao's bodies, and was filled with curse energy.
It seemed that this woman was a Curse Bearer, and was most likely quite strong too.
At least compared to Yang Cheng and Liang Xiao, her aura was stronger, and her curse energy was much more terrifying.
Of course, to Chen Heng, it was not a big deal.
He looked at the woman with a calm expression.
"This is the Fer Principality, and you are being treated here. It has been half a months ince you arrived."
Lookikng at Chen Heng, the golden-haired woman nodded and smiled as she said, "Soon, someone will come and tell you about the situation; I'm just responsible for looking after you."
