Chapter 762 41: Farewell
Chapter 762 41: Farewell
"Commissioner Yun... Commissioner Yun has returned!"
Someone called out first.
This shout of Commissioner Yun instantly ignited the entire fortress. The long-repressed people couldn't hold back any longer, their eyes reddened, and they surged towards Yun You, continuously shouting her name, their voices filled with ecstatic joy and excitement at recovering something lost.
Some wiped their tears, tightly holding the hands of those beside them; some raised their weapons and waved them, casting aside previous despair... Once, Yun You was like a beam of light, giving them the courage to survive when the Death Gods wreaked havoc. Now, this light had returned once more, tearing open the darkness and bringing them the possibility of life.
Tian En stood in front of the crowd. She didn't cry, yet could clearly feel her eyes heating up, her vision somewhat blurred. He looked at the familiar figure, remembering the days when they fought side by side, and couldn't help but smile...
"Thank goodness she's back."
Mokaka took quick steps out from the command platform, looked at Yun You, his eyes slightly red like a little cat, but didn't say anything excited, only "complained" gently in his heart.
"Still knows to come back, huh..."
Yet his tone was full of the relief of shedding a heavy burden.
Aurora stared intensely in Yun You's direction, the tension in her shoulders gradually relaxing.
She always believed that the girl who dared to venture alone with her into dragon lairs and tiger dens would never easily fall.
And now seeing Yun You return safely, she also let out a long sigh of relief, a hint of certainty flashing in her eyes.
"I was right about her, indeed there's no mistake."
Yuanbao carried the prosthetic body equipment on his shoulder, his face breaking into a wide grin, scratching his head, and feeling overjoyed inside.
"My boss is quite reliable! Never drops the ball at critical times!"
Frost Moon stood in the corner, and for once, there was a ripple on his usually expressionless face, though he didn't speak, he was excited enough to jump in place.
As for Chen Zaikun and Vitinya...
They leaned on their weapons, standing in place, looking at Yun You surrounded by the crowd, feeling somewhat mixed emotions.
Joy was real; Yun You appearing here gave humanity hope. But besides joy, they also felt a bit of helplessness and relief.
Chen Zaikun couldn't help but remember the dying exhortation from Jin years ago. He didn't appoint himself or Jiang Wuji as the leader but handed this position and hope to Yun You, saying she was "the only one who could lead humanity out of the darkness."
Back then, neither Chen Zaikun nor Jiang Wuji, nor Vitinya could understand why Jin didn't choose the steady Chen Zaikun, nor did he pick the then stronger Jiang Wuji, but instead chose Yun You, who was not yet eighteen.
Logically, whether by age or internal qualifications within the Equality Association, Yun You was not qualified to be a leader.
So later, Vitinya and the others attacked each other out of dissatisfaction.
Only at this moment did they finally understand their teacher's foresight.
"No wonder the teacher chose Yun You as the successor back then... It turns out only she can lead us to the future..."
Chen Zaikun's remark spread among the brothers, each nodding with deep agreement.
They instinctively sensed Yun You's aura, growing more shocked inside.
At this moment, Yun You was surrounded by a terrifying fluctuation of energy, overwhelming enough to make one shudder. It was far beyond Tier Six or Tier Seven... even able to counterbalance the dispersed power of the Monarch within the dimensional rift, a stark contrast to those so-called High Tier Death Gods.
But strangely, standing next to Yun You, no one felt oppressed or fearful. Her gentle aura was like a breeze, still that patient listener and enemy of evil "Commissioner Yun."
Everyone understood: Yun You had grown stronger, unimaginably strong, yet never changed her original intention. She always stood on the side of justice and goodness, never using her strength to harm the innocent.
...
Yun You stood amidst the crowd, looking at these familiar faces, seeing the tears and hope in their eyes, and the Sur Particles around her softened a bit.
She was just about to say something... but before the words could leave her mouth, a piercing sound of dimensional tearing suddenly rang out!
"Boom——!"
The dimensional rift, which had foreclosed, unexpectedly reopened around the fortress, larger and more ominous than before...
Black energy slithered out from the rift like venomous snakes, crashing into the time barrier Yun You had previously set up. Instantly, cracks appeared, and the dissipated aura of death once again enveloped the area, making the people who had just relaxed grip their weapons tightly once more, faces full of terror.
Yun You lifted her head, looking at those black rifts persistently attacking the time barrier, and sighed lightly.
She had actually anticipated this moment long ago.
When she had just performed Time Freeze, erasing the monsters and Death Gods besieging the fortress, she had also cleared away the fallen Death Gods scattered worldwide.
Such a large-scale energy fluctuation couldn't go unnoticed by the Monarch Yun Tiankui sleeping in Supreme Heaven.
The Monarch had found her.
Yun You could clearly sense that a will from Supreme Heaven was locking onto her as if it were tangible.
That will held no reason—only the anger of being disturbed.
Yun Tiankui, her father by blood, was presumably now utterly consumed by chaotic forces, only wanting to kill her, the "sudden variable," to kill this "daughter" daring to challenge his power.
