Xu Molil Who Stays at the Door

Princess's narration continued.

She happily shared more of what came after with Xu Xi.

"Sir, I did it!"

"I've enabled more people to have full meals!"

"I've ensured more people wear winter clothes!"

"I've made it so everyone who couldn't survive, can now live together!"

"From now on, in the future, there will never be any more demons eating humans!"

The tranquil, endless night sky, full of the mystery of starlight, echoed in the flowing silence, as Wu Yingxue's voice rang out so loudly.

She stood up from the ground.

With fists on her hips and a radiant smile, she proudly reported to Xu Xi, "Sir, I'm amazing, right?"

The girl's achievements, her past, were built on the corpses of countless demons.

Her life was undoubtedly the zenith acknowledged by all realms.

Yet even Wu Yingxue, acknowledged by all realms, longed for affirmation, desired that person who had once smiled and never awakened again, to recognize her efforts over the years.

Proudly, with the most boastful tone and demeanor, she boldly told the man, "Sir, I haven't disappointed your expectations."

Yes, that was all.

The girl only wanted to tell the foolish Sir that the once distant dream was now a tangible reality. He could stop working so hard, stop tiring himself so much.

Standing with hands on hips, the evening breeze brushed her bangs.

Allowing Xu Xi to see the anticipation in her eyes, sparkling like starlight.

"Mhm, you're indeed amazing."

Xu Xi responded to that expectation.

Smiling, he commended the Princess appropriately: "You are the world's number one heroine."

It wasn't any flowery speech.

Simple and sincere.

But Wu Yingxue was very happy, the corners of her mouth forming a beautiful curve, her martial attire billowing loudly in the wind.

"After all, it's me, so it's only natural!"

She laughed foolishly.

Then, at Xu Xi's prompting, she sat back down.

Instead of standing there foolishly, letting the wind blow.

"So, Yingxue, did you bring back everyone?"

"Pretty much, I revived everyone from the Qiuhuo Army, as well as some close acquaintances."

They continued to chat.

From Wu Yingxue's words, Xu Xi learned more about her deeds.

Such as how, after the third simulation, Wu Yingxue had dedicated herself to eradicating demons, not only from the Wu Realm but from all realms.

And how, with her supreme eminence, she had reversed the flow of time's river.

Reviving many past regrets.

Including the Dingyuan King who died unexpectedly early, and the Queen who was forced to drink poison.

With her supreme powers, Wu Yingxue had almost saved everything.

Except for Xu Xi's "eternal sleep."

No matter what, she couldn't reverse that.

It wasn't until recently that Wu Yingxue sensed Xu Xi's aura and traveled across chaos and multitudes, coming from distant spacetime realms.

"Yingxue, were you so certain it was me?"

"Mhm."

"Not even a shred of doubt that you might have mistaken someone?"

"No way, like you—a fool—there is no second."

The Princess laughed, teasing while her eyes softened slightly.

How could she ever mistake him?

He had woven dreams for her, where everyone could live.

He had folded pointless paper flowers for her in the dead of night.

He was foolish, only considering others.

He was foolish, always neglecting himself.

A sir like this was the greatest fool in the world, and there could never be a second.

So, to prevent this greatest fool from falling into danger again, the world's most capable heroine decided to stay by his side, protecting him with all her strength.

"Sir, from now on, with me here, no one can hurt you."

The Princess's voice was soft and very serious.

"Yingxue, you're not planning to return, are you?"

"Going back, but not back."

Wu Yingxue explained to Xu Xi that she had left a trace of her mind in the Wu Realm, living with her revived parents.

So, going back or not.

For Wu Yingxue, it was essentially the same.

Whether her main body was in the Wu Realm or Earth, she existed in both places, able to guard the Wu Realm and accompany her parents, or remain on Earth to see old friends.

The people of the Qiuhuo Army, and Xu Xi, who had awakened once more, were reasons why Wu Yingxue wanted to stay on Earth.

"I see..."

Xu Xi thought about it and approved of Wu Yingxue's decision.

The girl's request was simple.

She just wanted to stay on Earth, see past companions, and Xu Xi saw no problem with that.

"Oh, Sir, there's one more thing."

"What is it?"

"Do you want to come with me to the Wu Realm? My father wants to thank you in person."

"Uh... maybe not, I don't think it's appropriate."

Xu Xi hesitated slightly.

And declined the Princess's invitation.

First, the Wu Realm, connected through the third simulation, was far away from Earth, and Xu Xi didn't want to travel so far easily.

Second, meeting a girl's parents like this felt like it might lead to strange misunderstandings.

After weighing it all.

Xu Xi declined the offer.

After all, he wasn't close with the Dingyuan King.

"Alright..." Wu Yingxue shrugged, her tone a bit regretful.

The night grew deeper; the already dim sky became even more profound and mysterious.

Starlight outlined and embellished the mysterious veil of night.

"Yingxue, come back with me."

"Today is New Year's Eve; stay for dinner, and I have something I want to give you," Xu Xi looked at the sky and stood up, inviting Wu Yingxue.

"If you don't mind, I'd like to introduce you to two people, so you can get to know each other."

"You're all supreme beings of your realms."

"I think you might have some common topics."

Smiling, Xu Xi prepared to bring Wu Yingxue home, introducing her to his sister and the Demoness.

He thought.

Being supreme beings from realms, the three girls should have plenty to talk about.

Xu Moli and Krisha got along fine, and Xu Xi believed adding Wu Yingxue would only make things more harmonious.

At least.

As a brother, a mentor, a sir.

Xu Xi genuinely hoped the three girls could coexist peacefully, to prevent fragile Earth from accidentally being annihilated in the universe.

"Sure, Sir, I'll follow you."

Wu Yingxue was slightly startled.

Then her lips curled up in agreement to Xu Xi's invitation.

Xu Xi waved his hand, storing all the items on the ground into his spatial ring, and after bidding farewell to the people of the Qiuhuo Army, he led Wu Yingxue back to the center of Yanshan City.

A spacious courtyard, a frozen pond.

The cold, desolate flowerbeds were only graced by the swaying, crimson dragon's blood grass.

Xu Xi raised his head and glanced at the night sky.

For some reason.

Tonight's stars seemed a bit strange.

Flickering occasionally, vanishing and reappearing in an endless cycle.

"Ever since Earth began ascending, the skies have been getting stranger and stranger," Xu Xi didn't pay much attention, attributing it to natural phenomena.

Opening the gate to the courtyard.

A figure was already waiting there.

It was Xu Moli.
