This endless world

——Liuli's beating of Setsuna seemed to represent some kind of personnel change in the Fourth Group.

After the conversation in the Hall of Heroes that day, a somewhat depressed Setsuna returned to the core control room and began to devote himself to the grand plan of separating Rongomyniad from the Grudge. Liuli also took over Setsuna's responsibilities after that day and began to be responsible for the specific implementation of the plan... and this implementation process naturally requires Yang Yun's full cooperation.

"This is the end."

At the bottom of the River of Life, Liuli retracted her gaze from a completely repaired hole, looked at Yang Yun who was slowly withdrawing his spiritual power, and nodded slightly: "It's hard work."

"...Nothing, this is what I should do."

Sensing that the hidden danger was repaired safely, Yang Yun, who did not dare to look directly into Liuli's calm eyes until today, responded with mixed feelings: "Besides, this little thing can't be called 'hard work'."

This is true. Although Yang Yun himself didn't know what he was busy with in the past few days, he just mechanically followed Liuli's instructions and carried out tasks step by step around the world.

Use spiritual power to repair those hidden space cracks, restore vitality to the land polluted by resentment, expel the influence caused by Ashiya Doman, and let the earth return to its original appearance...If Yang Yun put the entire Pacific Rim plane into his inner world, it was a huge project; then what he is doing now is holding a scalpel and performing extremely precise minimally invasive surgery.

Of course, for Yang Yun, who has now reached the advanced level of the fourth stage, these so-called "tasks" are just a small matter, and they will hardly consume too much of his energy. Even if he works for three days and three nights without rest, it will not be a problem... But during this time, Yang Yun always doesn't know what to say in front of Liuli.

——How to say it? Because he was intoxicated by the momentary flesh and the momentary happiness, he forgot the important things?

The pleasure of the flesh and the spirit always makes people forget the time unconsciously... The land of gentleness, the tomb of heroes, the ancients are not deceiving me.

Just this thought in his mind made Yang Yun's face a little hot, which is also a reason why he found it difficult to face Liuli. As for the other reason, it was…

“You don’t have to avoid me like this.”

Staring at Yang Yun’s side with her lavender eyes, Liuli, wearing a crown and holding a holy spear, shook her head: “I don’t care about what happened between you and Shanshan… Besides, you don’t have to bear so many secrets alone.”

“…You figured it out.”

At first, Yang Yun was stunned, then smiled bitterly. Knowing that he couldn’t hide it from the other party, he sighed: “Sure enough, I still can’t hide it from you.”

“Of course.” Liuli’s eyes flashed: “For those of us who are familiar with cultivation, we know exactly what ‘immortals’ represent. Although you just glossed over the dangers of the battle, there is only one possible origin for the ‘immortals’ who can lead the army to invade other planes.”

——Immortals are not cabbages.

Even if Yang Yun tried his best to cover up and was vague, the other party’s strength was genuine. There is only one force in this multiverse that can mass-produce immortals, and that is the prehistoric continent and the prehistoric heaven.

——However, how should Yang Yun say these words to Shanna and Liuli?

They had traveled thousands of miles to resist the invasion of Dark Gaia, regardless of sacrifice, and the positive multiverse should have its own protective force. But in Yang Yun's view, the damage caused by Dark Gaia was not even one thousandth or one ten-thousandth of that of the Primordial Heaven...

"I just want you to feel that what you do is valuable." Yang Yun sighed: "That's all."

It's ironic, right? The self-proclaimed guardian of the civilization of the multiverse has become the biggest executioner. Under such circumstances, what kind of "betrayal" is it for the sacrifice and persistence of the Fourth Group for more than a thousand years?

Even the human race in the Primordial Continent of the positive multiverse does not care about the life and death and extinction of the subordinate planes, so what should the position of the human city in the negative universe be?

"It doesn't matter."

Faced with Yang Yun's words, Liuli said: "I also know that you are actually thinking about us. However, although this place is good, it is not my hometown."

Hometown

A word that is very far away for Yang Yun.

Unlike Zheng Zha and his hometown, which is the so-called "real world", Yang Yun's hometown is a place he can never go back to... Although I don't know if it is the so-called "outside the box", it is clear that the world that records the stories of "Infinite Horror", "Infinite Future" and "The Beginning of Death" is not a place that the Lord God can reach by teleporting.

"You miss it, right? Just like us. Because you have seen the so-called beauty, you will cherish the present more."

Seeing Yang Yun silent, Liuli spoke again

"... I don't remember telling you this." Yang Yun turned his head away: "And things like hometown..."

"You said it in a dream." Liuli smiled slightly: "I have seen it, so in a sense, you and the members of our Fourth Group actually have similar places."

... Indeed.

The reason why he came back this time and came to Longomyniad to meet Shanna and Liuli was not only because he had established a bond with them, but also because Yang Yun regarded this world as his second home outside the main god space... Here, he could put down the burden on his shoulders and tell Liuli and Shanna some secrets that Zheng Zha and the others could not express.

I like coming here.

"... Different." Even so, Yang Yun still muttered.

"Different?"

Liuli was slightly startled, and then she smiled.

It was a shallow smile, but she did smile. It was as if on an ordinary day, she accidentally glimpsed a scene of interest, or accidentally discovered a clever metaphor between the pages of a book. It exuded a gentle pleasure, as if smiling at a joke that only she understood.

At the same time, there was a hint of satisfaction in that smile, as if after a long wait or careful consideration, she finally heard an answer he had been waiting for, or solved a puzzle that had troubled him for a long time.

"I'm different from them. My hometown is here, and only here, not the human city."

"...So?"

"Well, if possible, you can always regard this place as your hometown. So, when everything is over..."

In the face of Yang Yun's shocked expression, Liuli smiled and said, "You can also live with me and Setsuna."
