Just not long ago, Jin was weaving a beautiful future for her, a world where everyone has clothes to wear, everyone can eat well, afford to go to school, with laws and social order.

Yun You had just resolved to fight for this ideal, to closely follow Jin and help him, also helping herself to fulfill this dream.

But now...

The realization of their dream was still a hundred thousand miles away.

For now, they've only completed a beautiful beginning.

Everything was waiting to flourish, it was the time for development, but Jin...had to be absent.

Yun You found it hard to accept for a moment, but she understood, Deng never lied, at least not to her.

Her words were not alarmist, but facts that would surely happen soon.

Thinking of Jin's tired and weak appearance, Yun You felt uneasy.

Why is the world always so harsh on idealists? Every time they see a glimmer of victory, they encounter insurmountable challenges?

No matter how, Yun You couldn't understand.

"I think, even your teacher himself, might also understand this point."

Looking at the little girl feeling a bit dejected, Deng sighed, but he had to say what needed to be said.

"As a Tier Seven True God, he is more aware of his physical condition than anyone else."

"But he can't retreat, nor can he just give up."

"He is not only your teacher, but also the backbone of your entire organization, he wants to use his last bit of residual heat to shield you from the storm as much as possible."

"..."

Yun You certainly understood this.

She finally knew why Jin would entrust such an important position of commissioner to her, and allow her to appear as the 'finale' in this banquet full of strong figures.

Jin was trying to clear obstacles for her as much as possible.

"Then...after physical death, can the soul continue to live in Supreme Heaven for a long time?"

After a while, Yun You reopened her mouth, unable to help but ask...

"Well, it's hard to say whether it's feasible."

Deng rubbed his chin, explaining: "Because Supreme Heaven is essentially a world with people, and you know, 'internal conflict' is a human instinct, even Tier Seven strong ones who have ascended to God are no exception."

"Who knows if your teacher has any enemies waiting for him in Supreme Heaven."

"But I think, with your teacher's strength, it's not likely he'll end up in obliteration; he still has skills, just lacking a bit of luck."

Hearing this, the gloom in Yun You's heart slightly diminished.

What she excels at the most is finding the scarce vitality in desperate situations.

And likewise, what she fears the most is things that can't succeed no matter how hard you try. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

As long as a matter is not absolute, there's still room for maneuver.

"Alright."

A moment later, Yun You's mood slightly improved.

She sighed lightly, and asked, "Then let's talk about the second thing."

The Penguin Lamp nodded, then pointed out the window.

"Your troubles are coming soon."

Upon hearing this, Yun You was shocked.

Troubles?

Up until now, she had encountered troubles that couldn't be counted even with ten fingers.

Or more accurately, since she started on the path of revenge, the word "trouble" has been tightly entwining her, small issues every three days, big issues every five days.

But Yun You also knew, the troubles she encountered, in Deng the superpower's eyes, probably wouldn't even count as a "problem," just something that could be solved casually.

But now, what would be something even Deng considers troubling?

Following the direction Deng pointed, Yun You looked out the window.

The height of the Bright Star Group Building was very high, at least over 300 meters, and Nest City No. 3 was in the plains area, so this elevation could almost encompass half of Nest City.

Yun You saw the Nest City that was thriving, saw the army stationed at the city's edge in the distance, saw the wilderness covered in wind and sand, and even saw the pitch-black night sky.

At first glance, this Nest City indeed looked quite beautiful...

But Yun You couldn't see anything odd, this was just another normal city!

The only place worth noting might be the faint 'dark red' flowing light in the sky.

Those beams glided within the clouds, unclear whether they were lightning, or some special weather control devices.

"You see? That streak of red light."

The Penguin Lamp clasped his hands behind his back, said with imposing authority: "I don't know if you've heard of a legend."

"Red is the brightest color in this world, and it's also the color representing curses."

"Those with red eyes or Sur Particles that are red, are known as 'Calamity Demons,' they're said to bring calamity to humanity and the world itself, this has been proven countless times in the past."

"So, many people and the Apprentice Death God hate red, even view it as a 'curse.'

"But what they really don't know is, the so-called 'Calamity Demon' is just the prelude to disaster."

"Legend has it, when Calamity Demons descend to the world one by one, when red light floods every being, then..."

"A true 'Demon King' will appear."

"He will destroy all order in this world, he will be a disruptor, causing the heavens and earth to be overturned."

"In the present world, no one can rival him, he is also a true God, and more powerful than a normal True God, simply because he is not limited by Supreme Heaven."

"Nobody...knows his purpose."

At this point, Deng paused slightly.

"No one knows what he is truly yearning for either."

"All we know is one thing—the guy harbors hostility towards everyone, he may not directly destroy the world, but trust me, if he stands at the pinnacle of the world, becomes a ruler like your teacher, then the world under his control is definitely more terrifying than the Hell you can imagine, or simply incomparable."

"..."

These words left Yun You stunned, feeling like the classic RPG game's 'Demon King.'

"So what exactly is this thing?"

The little girl couldn't help but ask: "Is it human? A God? Or something else?"

"From a human perspective, he should also count as human."

Deng scratched his head, saying: "But I personally suggest, you'd better not treat him as human, this would be a great loss."

"Because Calamity Demons are essentially humans, with human genes and body structures, just their power is slightly stronger."

"All in all, that thing is extremely terrifying, and his invasion date is close at hand."

"That streak of 'red light' you see is the prelude to his invasion of the real world."

"So here's my advice for you."

The Penguin Lamp turned around to look at Yun You, his expression becoming somewhat serious.

"Relying on personal strength alone, is absolutely impossible to contend with that guy."

"You must unite all that can be united, gather all possible forces."

"Your teacher probably also realized this, so he hasn't introduced various decrees recently, but actively expanded military preparations, waiting for the war."

"Unity, perhaps you might find this word a bit silly, but if not united, you might not even have the chance to survive."

"The monster not only possesses great power, but also boasts remarkable wisdom."

"After your teacher's soul returns heavenwards, unity...may be your only chance."
