Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 368: Golden Fruit

Seeing the golden-colored seed in Elf King Andromeda’s hands, Su Hialun finally believed the ancient elf in front of her and gently reached out to take the golden seed from his hands into hers. As soon as the golden seed was held in her hands, the seed suddenly glowed brightly, and a transparent soul of a gorgeous lady with gold hair and eyes appeared. It was Anastasia’s soul.

Upon seeing the figure of Anastasia, the Elf King Andromeda was speechless in shock. He looked at her like he had lost his soul. The soul of Anastasia smiled at her daughter and kissed her forehead, leaving a small tree imprint where the golden seed was about to enter. Just as it was about to enter Su Hialun’s forehead, Yue Xuexia made a move and blocked its path.

Elf King Andromeda frowned and questioned, "Moon Goddess, what do you think you are doing?" He wanted to make a move, but Taiyang had grabbed his nape, and Shen Jueyang pointed his sword at his neck with a cold face. They felt that he was about to do something to Yue Xuexia at this moment and stopped him.

Shen Jueyang said, "Don’t move, or else you will lose your head."

Yue Xuexia ignored the ugly expression of the Elf King and stared at the soul form of the oldest world tree spirit, Anastasia. "Why does the seed need to enter my grandmother’s head? Will this cause her harm? If you do, I can only erase your existence."

"Xue’er, calm down, please. Granny had reached the Huashen (God Transformation) realm. My small world is located on my forehead. I plan to plant this seed in my small world until it is strong enough to be transferred to a land we can find to replant it. It won’t harm me or my soul. Instead, it will protect me," said Grandma Su as she gently patted her granddaughter’s head. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

The coldness within those silver eyes faded as Yue Xuexia looked at her grandmother and put her hand down. The golden seed entered Su Hialun’s forehead and disappeared. The figure of Anastasia couldn’t help but chuckle as she touched the tip of Yue Xuexia’s nose as if teasing her for being overprotective. Knowing that the seed was harmless, Yue Xuexia was no longer vigilant of Anastasia.

{What a strong and overprotective child! Now that your soul is complete. Why don’t you merge it? You might suffer a bit of pain if your souls remain split. Because of this, the qi in your body is easily depleted, and you can hardly use big attacks. Even your physique was affected.} Anastasia said.

Yue Xuexia didn’t mind that the fact that her soul was split into two was exposed and responded, "When the time is right, I shall merge the souls. Until then, I want her to live a life different from what she knew. After all, she and I are the same person. I wanted her to know that love is not only one-sided and love can also be shared among family and not just to one man."

Once these words were mentioned, the hand of Shen Jueyang slightly trembled, leaving a light cut on Elf King Andromeda’s neck.

The latter complained, "Oi. Watch it!"

Yue Xuexia immediately cut off this topic and slightly bowed her head. "Please take care of my grandmother."

{I will protect her. She is also my daughter,} Anastasia said while patting Yue Xuexia’s head.

Only after hearing that did Yue Xuexia back off. Following her were Shen Jueyang and Taiyang. They took a step back and continued to watch from the side. Shen Jueyang had turned especially silent, though. Elf King Andromeda ignored the slight bleeding on his neck and approached Anastasia, his wife.

"Anastasia! Thank God, I can finally see you again! I miss you so much," King Andromeda wanted to hug her. Sadly, that isn’t possible for now. After all, she is merely a soul with no physical body for him to hug.

Anastasia said, {Andromeda, I miss you too. However, this state cannot last for too long. I have just rooted, and my state is still weak. I hope you can take care of me like before. However, this time with our daughter.}

"I promise. I will take care of you and Hialun," said Elf King Andromeda.

Anastasia kissed her husband on the forehead, and the same tree imprint appeared on his forehead. This way, he can visit her anytime. Then she noticed the man her child had chosen and felt a powerful bloodline of the Crimson Dragon King.

She said while looking at Xia Lianyu, {Crimson Dragon King’s kin. I didn’t expect my daughter to marry a dragon. No wonder, there is a dragon’s bloodline in her veins. This greatly helped me gain consciousness. Thank you, child.}

Xia Lianyu saluted and slightly bowed his head in greeting to World Tree, Anastasia.

{I will also give you the blessing of the world tree. This shall give you an extra life. Even if your current body were to perish, your soul shall be protected by me. I’m giving you this because I know you will protect my daughter well,} Anastasia said.

Xia Lianyu stated, "I will protect her with my life."

{This family is too powerful. Even the new Moon Goddess is in this family. The Immortal Sun Emperor and his great general, who we thought was dead, appeared here, and the lineage of the Lightning God. My daughter is connected to such a powerful family. I am relieved. Andromeda, Hia’er, it’s time for me to go back to sleep.}

Su Hialun said, "Mother, will we meet again?"

{Of course! I am just going to sleep so I can grow faster. I will wake up from time to time and check on you and Andromeda. Before I leave, I should give your family a gift.}

With a wave of Anastasia’s hand, a golden apple appeared in front of the Yue family: Tan Bingyu, Shen Jueyang, and Taiyang. This is Anastasia’s world tree fruit. Before she was burned down, she had taken away all her fruit, hid it in her soul storage, returned to her seed form, and fallen into slumber. This fruit had the ability to not only strengthen one’s soul but also slightly increase the cultivation energy by a hundred years. Su Hialun and Elf King Andromeda were given more.

{Nice meeting everyone. I hope we meet again in the future,} Anastasia said before completely fading before their eyes.

"Anastasia~" Elf King Andromeda looked as sad as he could as he could only watch his wife disappear once again. Though he felt more relieved seeing that she had woken up from the last scene of tragedy.

Once Anastasia left, everything in the warehouse had been restored to normal. She restored everything she had accidentally destroyed. Except for the glass shard on the floor, the warehouse had changed completely so that even the hole in the roof was mended. Everyone was staring at the golden fruit in their hands and didn’t know whether to eat it directly or not.

Yue Xuexia whispered, "Appraisal."

[Name: World Tree, Anastasia’s Fruit

Type: Fruit

Description: A fruit that only ripens every millennium. This is a unique fruit from the oldest world tree. It had the effects of beautification and strengthening souls. It can only increase one’s cultivation for a hundred years. For those at lower cultivation realms, it can increase one to three small realms. It had no expiration date. Sweet and a bit tangy.]

—

The Moon Goddess mumbles, "Sweet and a bit tangy?"

Seeing the description, Yue Xuexia looked interested in the taste of the golden fruit in her hands and unhesitatingly bit on it. Her tongue was assaulted with the sweet taste of an apple; the flesh of the fruit was as soft as that of a peach, while a little sour aftertaste was similar to that of an orange. In short, the taste of this golden fruit is the same as the description.

Everyone was looking at her; they didn’t expect someone would bite a weird-colored fruit without any hesitation.

Gulps~

Yue Ruxia asked, "Dajie, is it delicious?"

"Not bad. It tastes both like apples and oranges but as soft as peaches," said Yue Xuexia. "It also had beautifying effects."

Upon hearing this, the ladies in the warehouse no longer hesitated and ate the golden fruit. Though they were a bit surprised by the two flavors in their mouth, it wasn’t a bad taste. It felt a bit refreshing instead, and a powerful energy surged in their bodies. Those with lower realms, like Yue Ruxia and Yue Jixia, were greatly affected by the fruit. Yue Jixia, who was originally in the Early Jindan realm, suddenly reached the Peak Jindan realm after eating the fruit. Yue Ruxia, who was in the Peak Innateness Realm, suddenly broke through, reaching the Jindan Realm mid-stage.

Yue Jixia said, "I broke through three small realms and reached the peak Jindan realm!"

"Me too!" Yue Ruxia said with a smile on her face.

Mama Yue also broke through. From the Early Yuanying (Nascent Soul) realm to the Mid Yuanying realm. Papa Yue chose not to eat it as it wasn’t very useful for him. He decided to split it into three, allowing his wife and two younger daughters to eat more. As for Yue Xuexia, who is in the Huashen realm, it wouldn’t affect her much. One bite of the fruit was enough for her soul to be strengthened.

Everyone didn’t stop her when she gave her fruit to her spiritual beasts. Shen Jueyang and Taiyang gave theirs to Yue Xuexia, as it did not affect them. Grandpa didn’t eat his fruit, as his soul was strong enough and his realm was high enough. He wanted to give this to the most talented descendant of his clan who is not from the Yue family. Grandma Hialun gave hers to her husband, while the Elf King, who missed his wife, ate the fruit with tears rolling down his face.

He said, "I will come back to see you tomorrow and teach you how to properly use your bow." Elf King Andromeda left after restoring everything to normal, and no one knew where he had gone after leaving.

Completing the distribution of the artifacts, the whole family had left the plateau again and went home to their respective houses. Yue Xuexia remained on the plateau with Tan Bingyu, Shen Jueyang, and Taiyang to clean up the mess left behind.
