This led to a loss of at least tens of billions, and the company's stock price fluctuated by 0.01%.

However, unexpectedly, Biotechnology did not directly step in.

Probably because of fear of Jin behind Mokaka, this giant enterprise with business spanning dozens of planets silently accepted the loss, and then sent a negotiator, saying Biotechnology was willing to give up the control of Nest City No. 3, but in exchange, those convenient medical points set up by Mokaka must, and can only, purchase supplies from Biotechnology.

For this, Biotechnology was willing to offer nearly cost price.

Mokaka ultimately agreed, even though this would allow the mayor council to be restrained by the giant enterprise, but now Nest City No. 3 is in ruins, urgently needing development, if one rashly chooses to turn against Biotechnology completely, the cost might be too great for Mokaka and Nest City No. 3 to bear.

Since the giant enterprise has already made concessions, there's no need to completely fall out... Mokaka's original intention, after all, was just hoping to let ordinary people live a good life.

Unlike giant enterprises, those nobles entrenched in Nest City are short-sighted, and each one of them holds tightly onto their scarce resources. Now that they see Mokaka wanting to take their cake, naturally they say nothing, and directly come forward desperately.

The nobles, led by the Collection Clan, dispatched a total of 74 assassins within nine months, averaging once every four days, among which the vast majority were Apprentice Death Gods, and only a few were mercenaries.

They could be said to use every means possible... poisoning, assassination, gunfire, and even some unscrupulous families directly bought high-altitude bombers, attempting to drop bombs while Mokaka was giving a speech.

But these small actions, in front of Tian En, were ridiculous like clowns, unable to break through her defense at all.

Thus, ultimately, not only did they fail to kill Mokaka, but instead gave the girl a reason to take action.

Without a moment's hesitation, Mokaka directly invited Jiang Wuji and Chen Zaikun, and with their help, extinguished many nobles in Nest City.

For a while, Mokaka's momentum almost reached an incredible level, the bottom-tier civilians spontaneously supported her, considering her as a deity...

As for Jin over there, the situation was a bit more complicated.

According to the tip from Yun You, Jin spent three days successfully finding that "Saint's Remains."

It was a section of rib as white as jade, with a few marks left by blades and bullets, soaked in the polluted underground dark river all day long, yet it was not eroded, but rather slowly purifying the toxic substances in the dark river.

Upon getting the rib, Jin immediately handed it over to Yun You... he had promised before that if he could get the remains, he would certainly allow Yun You to use it first.

At that time, Yun You was happy for a while, eagerly taking the remains, ready to research how to resurrect the dead.

But after three whole months of research, Yun You had to accept a fact.

Although the Saint's Remains contained extremely powerful energy, capable of allowing the Death God to truly transform into a God, but... it could not bring the dead back to life.

Just as Deng had said before, death cannot be reversed, flowers fall cannot bloom again, this is the common truth of the world.

Even someone as powerful as the Saint could not defy this rule.

Upon careful reflection, this was actually normal. If the Saint truly had such great power to reverse life and death, how did he fall in the past, even facing dismemberment as a fate?

So, Yun You ultimately accepted this fact, putting on a strong front, returned the remains to Jin, letting him use it, so he could become a Tier Seven True God...

The sensible young girl could break one's heart.

Jin actually felt somewhat uneasy in his heart, but he also knew how heavy the burden on his shoulders was, he must break through to Tier Seven to have a chance to protect everything he cherishes.

Thus, he too began his retreat.

As for Yun You... she fell into a completely reclusive state.

She was already finding it difficult to see the purpose of her continued existence.

Honestly, throughout her short life, she had never truly lived for "herself," when young she hoped to see her parents' smiling faces, later she walked the path of revenge for them, fought to protect her friend Mokaka's life.

She had promised "King" to become an unfettered existence, to live for her own pleasures, yet Yun You ultimately could not do it.

Everything in her life existed for others, she almost never considered her own true feelings.

And now, the revenge for her parents has been fully enacted, Mokaka and Jin's endeavors have thoroughly embarked on the right track, presumably even without her, the two can smoothly continue.

Since that's the case, what necessity is there for her existence?

Yun You wasn't too fragile, she never thought of ending it all herself, but...

She indeed needed a reason to continue living.

Therefore, she refused any gatherings, and no longer participated in any meetings at the company or Jin's side.

She just shut herself in her room, not eating, not drinking, just sitting in meditation, silently contemplating her future, contemplating the meaning of her life...

By January 2079, it had been a whole year since Yun You's retreat.

At the beginning of the month, Jin surprisingly broke through first.

No one knew if he truly reached the seventh tier through that piece of rib, becoming a True God.

At the moment he emerged from retreat... dramatic shifts occurred, the world lost its color.

With a wave of his hand, he seemed to be able to overturn the entire world.

In front of him, even the normally arrogant Death God Organization, which could ignore any rules and laws, had to lower its proud head.

At this moment, Jin had truly become the "lawless one."

It's just that Jin still adhered to the principle of "Order of Non-Belligerence" in Nest City, whether it's because he's naturally law-abiding, or because the constraints of the Order are so strong, that even deities cannot resist.

Of course, even if he didn't take the initiative to act, no one in Nest City dared to provoke him.

His strength had reached the level where he alone could rival an entire giant enterprise, so his status naturally rose along with it.

The Nest City Council was smart enough, resigning collectively the day after Jin's breakthrough, cleanly handing over the reins of control to Jin, without any hesitation.

They didn't have the courage to negotiate with a deity on Earth.

Thus, Jin naturally took over Nest City No. 3.

He finally had the opportunity to realize his dream...

Jin founded his own organization—the Equality Association, making further reforms based on Mokaka's foundation.

He confiscated the land that nobles had seized through illegal means and distributed it to the lower-level populace, and forcefully implemented compulsory education and labor protection measures.

Occasionally, there would be some reckless individuals opposing, but Jin did not care.

Because he was never fighting alone.

He consolidated the military of Nest City No. 3 and expanded three large legions—First Legion of 2.1 million, led by Jiang Wuji, responsible for defense of Nest City Upper City; Second Legion of 3.4 million, led by Chen Zaikun, responsible for defense and order of Central City; and Third Legion under Kasima Reiko's command, 2.43 million strong, responsible for assisting Mokaka in guarding Lower City and shouldering the duty of "territorial expansion."

With the three legions, nearly 8 million troops, even if Jin was someday no longer around, as long as the legions remained loyal to the Equality Association, Nest City wouldn't face major turmoil.

Notably, Jin forgave Vitinya and incorporated him back into the Third Legion as Kasima Reiko's deputy.

Although Kasima Reiko never liked handling affairs, so the actual control of the Third Legion lay in the hands of both Mokaka and Vitinya.

While it's somewhat unusual, Jin's young apprentice Yun You, who once made outstanding contributions in the "Great Colosseum Battle," received neither any legion nor position.

This prompted some speculation, some even guessing if Yun You and Jin had a falling out.

But... these are just extraneous matters.

Overall, over this past year, the situation in Nest City has changed repeatedly.

But...

Retreating Yun You never found the answer.

Her body grew increasingly weak, and her spirit, on the verge of collapse.

She knew she had to find the answer now, otherwise, her life might truly come to an end...
