The world of the positive plane gradually solidified, and a figure, with closed eyes, slowly dissipated.
Finally, in the positive plane, all universes, continents, and starry skies were completely condensed.
Then, figures appeared in various worlds.
In the Five Elements Hall, countless disciples had appeared.
Xiao Jin was back, Qi Heng was back, Xi Sha, Li Yan, He Xu, Wan Qingyi, Wan Jianyi, Zi Yan, Qi Tian Da Sheng… many saints were back.
Wan Qianxin, Xia Yubing, Han Xiaoyun, Bao Bao, Wan Liuchuan, Liu Yuxin, Tian Suanzi, Huo Feng, Yuan Jun, Qing Wu, Dada, Kaka…
The Thunderstorm Squad, all members returned.
Xia Dayu, Wan Yi, Han Xiaofeng, Han Xiaoyu, She Yu…
The Five Great Immortal Venerables also returned.
Qi Man Yao, the sect leader of Kui Lian Sect, and Lin’er…
All had returned.
Finally…
The figure of Feng Zhi Xian Zun, Fang Xiaoyu, appeared in the Five Elements Hall.
Everyone saw the figure in the sky that was almost dissipated to nothingness.
They also heard the words he left behind.
"With my life, I exchange for your return."
Countless people cheered for their resurrection and return, shouting Wan Lei's name.
However, those who cared about him, who knew him, all stared blankly at the figure in the sky, and sadness spread.
They knew that a powerful being had sacrificed himself, using his life to bring about the resurrection of the entire positive plane.
Fang Xiaoyu looked up and saw the figure in the sky, her eyes instantly reddening.
"Wan Lei!!!"
Fang Xiaoyu let out a piercing cry and instantly rushed to Wan Lei's side.
"Come back! Where are you going! Why did you leave me alone?! Why!
You promised to resurrect us, but you didn't say you would die! Come back, I want you to come back!"
"I don't want to be resurrected, take me with you! You promised me that no matter what we did, we would always be together. You didn't keep your word, I hate you forever!"
"Wan Lei…"
Fang Xiaoyu's sorrowful crying infected the entire Five Elements Hall. All the cheers disappeared, and many people couldn't help but cry.
At this moment, Wan Lei didn't even have the energy to speak a single word.
He used all his energy, all his authority, all his matter, and his transcendent body to exchange for the entire positive plane.
He looked at Fang Xiaoyu with deep affection and worry, smiled weakly, and then looked at Lin'er below.
His meaning was simple: to ask Fang Xiaoyu to take good care of Lin'er and not do anything foolish.
"Wan Lei…"
Fang Xiaoyu cried tears of grief, reaching out to hug Wan Lei, but the figure in her arms turned into specks of starlight and dissipated in mid-air.
Qi Man Yao, holding Lin'er, had already burst into tears.
When she dissipated into starlight in Wan Lei's arms years ago, Wan Lei's feelings must have been the same as hers now.
In the Five Elements Hall, countless people knelt down, grateful to Wan Lei for saving them.
The members of the Thunderstorm Squad were already sobbing uncontrollably.
Liu Yuxin sobbed and trembled in Wan Liuchuan's arms.
Wan Liuchuan held her, tears falling on her head.
Tian Suanzi looked at the dissipating figure, his eyes moist, and muttered,
"Brother, old friend, walk well."
The four little ones lowered their heads. They were no longer children, but mature warriors, but now they could no longer be strong.
"Master…"
Yuan Jun looked at the sky, clutching Qing Wu's arm tightly.
"Lei Shao… Lei Shao, you will definitely come back, right? You are immortal! You almost died before, but you came back, didn't you?"
Above the Dan Hall, Sui Xiaohang cried and laughed, looking like he had gone mad.
"Lei'er… Lei'er…"
Wan Hongxin bit his lip until it bled. He only had this one son, his pride.
Xia Dayu clenched his fists, Wan Yi’s eyes were thoughtful.
Xi Sha sobbed uncontrollably, crying that if he could come back, she would be his concubine.
Qi Heng held a jar of wine and took a large gulp.
"Brother, you probably already forgot about me, but I still remember that I owe you a drink."
At Yan Tower Academy, Liu Tao kowtowed nine times to bid farewell to his benefactor.
Wan Lei was smiling before he dissipated.
He had finally fulfilled his promise and saved everyone.
Everyone had returned, not a single one missing.
But…
In this world,
Only one person was missing.
A month later.
Above the clouds.
Fang Xiaoyu, holding Lin'er, squatted on the ground, staring blankly at the sky. There was nothing in the sky.
Beside her were the Five Great Immortal Venerables.
Including her, there were now six Immortal Venerables in the positive plane.
Only Lei Zhi Xian Zun was missing.
She Yu squatted on the ground, took Fang Xiaoyu's hand, and gently comforted her.
"Xiaoyu, don't be too sad. In fact, Wan Lei isn't dead. His body has turned into all things in the universe. Every inch of land here, every leaf, every wisp of air, is him.
He is the whole world.
No matter where you are, he is by your side.
And his will has also merged into this universe. He is also watching you now. No matter where you are, he can always watch you and accompany you."
"But what I want is a husband who can laugh with me and shelter me from the wind and rain. What Lin'er needs is a father who can teach him and support him."
Fang Xiaoyu lowered her head and looked at Lin'er in her arms, murmuring,
"Aren't we Immortal Venerables? Can't Immortal Venerables resurrect people as they please? Why can't we even resurrect one person?"
"Alas, a transcendent being, how can we mere Immortal Venerables resurrect them?"
Xia Dayu sighed.
Wan Yi smiled slightly and looked at the sky, saying leisurely,
"Actually… it's not entirely impossible."
"Is there a way? Do we still have a way?"
Fang Xiaoyu immediately stood up, looking at Wan Yi nervously, eagerly awaiting the method he spoke of.
She knew that Wan Yi was the foremost wise man of the positive plane, the smartest person in the world. Many of his contingency plans and arrangements came from him.
Without him, Wan Lei would not have become an Immortal Venerable, and they might have already been destroyed by Han Fengxue, and the entire positive plane would have been ruined.
"Senior Wan, speak quickly."
Fang Xiaoyu, holding Lin'er, almost bumped into Wan Yi's arms.
Wan Yi smiled slightly.
"Indeed, we cannot resurrect someone who has become a transcendent being, but we can still resurrect an Immortal Venerable… can't we?"
"Resurrect an Immortal Venerable?"
Xia Dayu suddenly realized.
"You mean, we shouldn't resurrect Wan Lei, who has already become a transcendent being, but resurrect Wan Lei from the time when he just became an Immortal Venerable, right?"
"Yes, Xiaoyu, do you still remember where the universe where you became Immortal Venerables is?"
"Of course, I remember. We'll go now."
Fang Xiaoyu's eyes shone brightly. She handed Lin'er to Qi Man Yao, turned, and led the Five Great Immortal Venerables to the universe created by Wan Lei.
Thirty years later.
Seven figures appeared in the sky above the Five Elements Hall.
The figure dressed in sky-blue clothes took a step forward, looked at everyone below, and smiled slightly.
"Everyone, I am back."
— — — End of Book — — —
Author's Note:
The book is finished, this is truly the end of the book. No clichés, no surprises, it has officially concluded.
Wan Lei has accompanied you readers for over a year and has also accompanied me through hundreds of nights and days. Honestly, when I wrote the words "End of Book," I felt immense reluctance.
It's the same feeling I had last year when I finished "Da Yu Wei Chen" with three million characters and wrote "End of Book."
I originally planned to end the book when Wan Yi said there was a way, but I remembered how badly I was criticized for leaving a plot hole in the previous book's ending, so I decided not to leave one this time and added the final ending.
427 days of continuous serialization without any breaks, 427 days and nights. I worked my job and wrote late at night, all to fulfill the promise I made at the beginning of the book: "Never to stop updating."
Now, I have truly achieved it.
"Tian Jie Bai Du Ren," with over 2.6 million characters, has concluded. Wan Lei's time with us has ended.
The next chapter will be handed over to Han Yun.
"Achievement System: I Cultivate Immortality in the Martial World" has been released and updated with tens of thousands of characters.
The protagonist, supporting characters, and villains in the new book all have intelligent minds. It's also the most mind-bending book I've ever written. This one is about chivalry, love, and hate in the Jianghu.
As always, never stop updating!
