[This story is finished, hahahaha, I'm so happy! Next I'll be updating When a Succubus Becomes a Villain's Shadow Guard, along with a similar upcoming story, Forbidden Zone: I Claim Territory for My Country.]
Tsk, so I didn't die after all. Guess that means some people will be disappointed.
Yan Yu was surprised she hadn't died and had even returned to Earth. After all, evil people live long lives, so how did a good person like her get this lucky? Weird~
Actually, coming back was pretty nice. At least in this world she wasn't an outsider, so she wouldn't be rejected.
Yan Yu only wanted to enjoy life and regain her strength. Wait, something about this wasn't right. Were there Awakened on Earth too?
Vital energy was reviving, energy was running wild, and even rotting corpses had appeared? Was Earth trying to destroy the world and kick off global evolution?
Sure enough, the rules had planned everything out long ago. There was no way they would let her return for nothing.
She could only regain her strength by saving people, and the more people she saved, the stronger she became. Tsk, she'd always been a good person. Why would the world's will need to scheme so hard to get her to help? (smiling face)
At some point, the space available to humanity had begun to shrink. Mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas had become forbidden zones for humans. Even the tombs and museums that once recorded human history and symbolized human civilization rejected all who approached...
Ordinary people could no longer get tickets to enter. Anyone who forced their way in would become a walking corpse. As for the Awakened, they had to carve a path paved with their own lives, conquering each domain within the forbidden zones and reclaiming space for humanity to survive.
On the roof of a high-rise, Yan Yu sat on the railing, tilting her head back to bask in the sun as she watched the distance with a cheerful smile. Flames encircled a towering tree, its gnarled roots surging across the ground and tearing it free from the soil. Dark green vines lashed through the air, shattering the skyscrapers of human civilization.
Every living thing had evolved and grown stronger. Only humanity had been left behind. In fact, the world itself had grown larger.
"Yan Yu."
"What? I didn't do anything." A familiar voice came from behind her. Yan Yu leaned back on the railing, her eyes and brows carrying a gentle smile. "If your strength wasn't built on lives, you wouldn't count as strong. Whether they were your enemies or your companions..."
"I called you to dinner. We're having Hunan food today." The tall, broad-shouldered man interrupted her. He opened the door and ducked out onto the rooftop, unextinguished arcs of electricity coiling around his long, knuckled fingers.
"Tsk, fine..."
At some point, an Awakened known by the codename Inscription Master appeared before the public, giving countless people hope and inspiring a frenzy of admiration. Applications to art programs surged again, because...
At a live broadcast, a woman wrapped one arm around the waist of a tall man holding a black saber. Silver chains wound around her left arm, covered in blood-red inscriptions. She raised her palm, and an intricate, pale design instantly spread out from it. A circle of light expanded silently, and the entire building turned into a pile of sand in an instant...
Where was the energy artifact? The one big enough to create several Awakened? The energy artifact that was supposed to be a national treasure?
The people in front of their screens stared blankly at the ashen image: ???
Did she just slice a watermelon, accidentally slice the house too, and then the melon flew away?
But damn, she's strong! They could live without watermelon!!
The comments paused for a moment: [I've memorized Inscription Diagrams: A Basic Guide. Can I be your apprentice?] [The commenter above is dreaming. I've known it by heart for ages. Look at me, sis!] [You got lucky and still want sis to teach you? Not me. I just praise her. Sis, you're amazing!] [Where did this fragrant melon-eater come from?]...
Yan Yu gently hooked a finger around the tall man's waist beside her and raised an eyebrow at him.
P.S. 1. A carefree, audacious, warm-hearted "woman with all four virtues" VS a taciturn young man who goes crazy without warning.
2. Everyone is perfectly normal.
