Cheers swept across the entire District 16 defense line like a tsunami, echoing endlessly.
Lei Zhan led all the generals and quickly walked up to Ye Chuan. With a heavy thud, he dropped to one knee. The soldiers behind him followed suit in perfect unison.
"Mr. Ye, we will never forget your great kindness!" Lei Zhan's voice choked with emotion.
"You didn't just save us, you saved the entire Blue Source Planet! From this day forward, you are the benefactor of all humanity on Blue Source Planet!"
"What are you kneeling for?" Ye Chuan didn't like people kneeling to him.
"Get up."
With a casual wave of his hand, an invisible force lifted everyone to their feet.
He looked up at the black rift in the distance, which was no longer spewing monsters, and gently pointed his finger.
A stream of black and gold chaos energy turned into a streak of light, shooting accurately into the core of the rift.
Accompanied by a muffled boom, the massive rift that had devoured countless lives began to close at a visible rate. Ultimately, it vanished completely from the world, not leaving even a trace of spatial fluctuation behind.
With this, the war was truly brought to an end.
...
The news grew wings, spreading across the entire Blue Source Planet at the speed of light.
All the news headlines on the terminals changed to the same title at the exact same time:
Miracle Descends! Nameless Powerhouse Ends Outer God War, Resurrects Tens of Thousands of Fallen Soldiers!
Star Domain TikTok was instantly flooded. Countless people posted blurry videos sent from the front lines, and the comment sections completely exploded:
"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap! Am I seeing things? Mass resurrection? Is this a god? This is definitely a god!"
"I'm crying to death! My younger brother died in District 16 two years ago, and he just called me! I'm on my way to pick him up right now! Lord God, I bow to you!"
"Seventy years! My grandpa hoped for the end of the war until the day he died. If only he could have lived to see this day..."
"Can someone dig up the background of this big shot? I've never heard of such a person before!"
"Who cares about his background! Anyone who can fight outer gods and resurrect the dead is my god!!"
"Wait, if the war is over, does that mean the subsidies for fallen soldiers will be stopped? I was waiting for that subsidy to buy a new airship."
"Such a powerful person popping out of nowhere, who knows what his intentions are? What if he wants to be a dictator? Is no one in the Federation going to do anything about this?"
"I feel like something isn't right. The outer gods are so powerful, how could they be easily defeated by one person? Maybe he's a spy sent by the outer gods to gain our trust first, and then wipe us all out."
"Is the person upstairs sick in the head? Would a spy resurrect tens of thousands of soldiers? Would a spy help us close the rift? You haven't been corrupted by the outer gods, have you?"
Ye Chuan ignored the content on the planetary network and returned to the hilltop villa in District 7 with Lin Xi.
He planned to rest well for a couple of days before setting off for the core star domain.
Early the next morning, just as the sky was beginning to lighten, Ye Chuan was woken up by the doorbell.
073 Holy Sword X was standing at the door, and outside stood Lin Xi, carrying two large insulated bags.
Today, she wasn't wearing her black law enforcement uniform. Instead, she wore a simple white T-shirt and jeans, with her hair tied up in a high ponytail.
She lacked the sharpness she had during law enforcement, looking much more like a girl next door.
"Mr. Ye, I'm sorry to disturb your rest." Seeing Ye Chuan, Lin Xi immediately stood up straight and scratched her head in slight embarrassment.
"I figured that the meals 073 makes are all standardized nutritional meals, which might not suit your taste, so I woke up early to make some breakfast and bring it over."
The so-called standardized nutritional meals were actually just small energy blocks.
Eating one of these blocks could satisfy a whole day's energy consumption, but the taste was not very good.
Over here in District 7, cooking a meal yourself was actually a luxury because vast areas of land had been polluted, leaving very few places suitable for farming.
Instead, highly efficient energy blocks were the choice of the majority.
Ye Chuan stepped aside to let her in. "Come in."
Lin Xi walked softly into the kitchen to help Ye Chuan cook.
"I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I just made a little bit of everything." Lin Xi set out the bowls and chopsticks, looking at Ye Chuan nervously.
"If it doesn't taste good, please tell me, and I will improve it next time."
Ye Chuan picked up his chopsticks and took a bite of the fried egg. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, perfectly seasoned.
He nodded. "It tastes good. Better than what 073 makes."
Hearing this, Lin Xi's eyes instantly lit up, and a happy smile appeared on her face:
"I'm glad you like it!"
Ever since Ye Chuan resolved the war, there was nothing but adoration in Lin Xi's eyes.
This was a great hero, after all.
Watching Lin Xi bustling about cleaning up the kitchen, Ye Chuan leaned back on the sofa, scrolling through Star Domain TikTok while casually asking:
"Don't you need to go to work at the law enforcement team?"
Lin Xi wiped her hands, walked out, and sat on the sofa opposite him. "The chief said my primary task right now is to take care of your daily life. I don't need to worry about the law enforcement team's affairs for the time being."
She paused, then added, "Besides, now that the war is over, there isn't much going on in District 7. We used to have to deal with speeding, fights, and sporadic mutant invasions every day. Now everyone is celebrating the victory, and the streets are very lively."
"Oh right, Mr. Ye," Lin Xi said, as if suddenly remembering something. "There's a celebration party in District 7 tonight. Do you want to go check it out?"
Ye Chuan lifted his eyelids slightly. "Not interested."
"It's fine if you don't go, we can just use a particle projection to watch it."
"Forget it."
"Oh..." Lin Xi's eyes dimmed for a moment, but she quickly cheered up again.
"It's okay. If you don't want to go, then we won't."
...
For the next two days, Lin Xi came over punctually every day.
She would bring fresh ingredients in the morning to make breakfast, then clean the villa.
She watered the plants in the yard, made a simple lunch at noon, and in the afternoon, she would sit quietly in the corner of the living room, processing some law enforcement documents without disturbing Ye Chuan.
Like a little maid.
Very sensible and accommodating.
However, these kinds of days did not last long.
Lin Xi received a message, and when she saw its contents, she felt a sense of disbelief.
"Um, Mr. Ye." She immediately jogged over to Ye Chuan's side.
Ye Chuan was currently using TikTok to watch an alien succubus do a window-wiping dance, but seeing Lin Xi's anxious expression, he asked, "Yeah?"
"It's like this. The Federation has sent someone from a higher star domain over. It seems they want to ask about the outer god invasion."
"If they sent someone, they sent someone," Ye Chuan said.
"The thing is, people from higher star domains are highly esteemed, and we can't afford to offend them. Plus, he specifically asked for you by name..."
"What a bunch of elites." Ye Chuan looked bored, but since they were from a higher star domain, their strength might be decent.
"Let's go."
