Back to Douluo Planet, a Torment of Conscience

What do you want with him?

"Nonsense! I asked him to guard the God Dragon Realm for me, waiting for the Dragon God to return. Not only did the Dragon God not return, but some guy surnamed Tang also usurped the Divine Realm. How could I not go after him!"

The Dragon God immediately began to curse.

Lin Yuan smiled. He looked out the window at the surrounding planets and saw that most of them were filled with magma. The radar of the third warship showed many miniature versions of the planets, all of which were cracked open.

Lin Yuan's eyes immediately dimmed.

"Elder brother..."

Lan gripped Lin Yuan's arm tightly.

"Lan... your brother is truly going to become a sinner for all eternity now."

Lin Yuan gave a wry smile.

Because the Federation had laid out Wormhole from the Federation to the Longma Galaxy in advance, the Federation's third warship, carrying Lin Yuan, returned to the Douluo Federation in less than a week. On the way back, Lin Yuan saw that the once vibrant Elf Star was now devastated.

The lush greenery is gone; the overwhelming dust has almost completely turned Elf Star into a lifeless, gray planet, much like a resource-rich planet.

We've arrived at Douluo Planet.

Lin Yuan stepped off a starship, immediately enveloped by the thick stench of blood and the wailing of the common people.

Night fell, a gentle breeze blew, and the earth beneath their feet was cracked, revealing boiling magma deep within. The sea splashed its azure and crimson fuels across the protruding rocks. Countless people wept bitterly, and countless corpses littered the wilderness. There were also numerous Soul Master trying to save lives on the scorched earth, and many of these Soul Master were faces that Lin Yuan recognized.

The dried-up Sea God Lake in Shrek City was intertwined with a sorrowful atmosphere, and even the Life Tree, which represented the Douluo Federation, was now just a lonely trunk.

"Madman, quick, quick, another one has survived!"

Qian Lei, who was lame in one leg, leaned on his crutch and his face lit up with joy. "Can you still use the White Dragon Return with only one hand left?"

"Heh, Fatty Qian, you think I'm like you?"

The young man, known as the Madman, had his left arm severed, yet he still carried the wounded man on his back with his right arm, the White Dragon Spear clenched in his mouth, as he channeled his Soul Power back and forth across the scorched earth.

"Sister Qianqiu, there's an old woman here..."

"Okay, Huihui." A woman with long blue hair replied gently, quickly stepped forward, took out a Life Fruit from her Soul Tool, and fed it to the old woman.

At the same time, a soul-cleansing melody began to play.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. According to what the Pavilion Master said, Lin Yuan —oh no, our Human Sovereign— has returned. He will lead us to rise again." Lan Mengqin played her zither, and melodious music filled the air.

Lin Yuan stared blankly at everything before him.

Yang Hui came out and stood next to Lin Yuan, speaking Youyou.

"In the year you were gone, the girls who liked you, and even the fat guy I looked down on, have all grown a lot."

"Although our Federation is protected by the Life Core, it is still inevitably affected by the New Star. The explosive force brought about by the sudden planetary movement was simply too great. Coupled with the Gravity brought by the displacement of surrounding planets, almost all buildings except Shrek City and Tang Sect were destroyed in an instant. Then came the price of moving away from the star, the temperature dropped rapidly... But our Federation will never succumb to this disaster. Lin Yuan, we need you to lead us again."

"Yes, this is still Douluo Planet, which is protected by Life Core. Half of the lives have already been swallowed up by this disaster. On administrative stars like Tianluo Planet and Tiandou Planet, which do not have Life Core, the death rate is probably as high as 90%."

Seeing the devastation ravaged Douluo Planet, Meng Fei was heartbroken.

"This is the powerlessness of humanity in the face of the universe. Even if we possess warships capable of destroying planets, what good are they? We are still helpless in the face of such catastrophes."

Ling Zichen sighed. In the hearts of all Douluo people, the once unshakeable Douluo Planet had suffered such a major blow.

"Yes." At this moment, Huo Yuhao also stepped forward, looking at the scene that resembled a living hell, the bitterness in his heart was indescribable:

"The power of the universe is far more than this. Back then, when we, the Divine Realm, faced Black Hole, we also sacrificed the power of creation offered by the two veteran God King, the Destruction God King and the Life God King, to buy us time."

Perhaps it was the sound of the warship landing that was so loud that on this scorched earth where it was impossible to tell whether it was Aerospace Center or a primeval forest, countless numb people looked up in astonishment, and then they saw Yang Hui, Yutian Meng Fei, Ling Zichen, Gu Yuena, Tang Wulin and other big shots that they had only seen on television.

Finally, their gazes locked onto the person standing in the middle.

"It's the Human Sovereign! He has returned!"

Suddenly, Zheng Longjiang was involved in disaster relief, shouted.

Upon hearing this, everyone present was shocked. Hua Linhan, Bing Tianliang, Qian Lei, Liu Feng, Tang Yuge, Ye Lingtong, and the rest of the Shrek and the War God Temple members all showed expressions of wild joy and hurriedly looked around.

"Lin Yuan (the Human Sovereign) is back. Where is he?"

Just then, three beautiful figures suddenly stood up on the scorched earth. With a swift movement, they appeared directly in the sky, scanned their surroundings, and confirmed that they were looking at that familiar figure.

Those familiar faces, after a year, have lost their youthful naiveté. In their place is the gentleness and fortitude shaped by war and disaster, and beneath this gentleness and fortitude lies an unspoken joy.

The three were none other than Dong Qianqiu, Lan Mengqin, and Yuanen Huihui.

Especially Dong Qianqiu, whose beautiful face, which had always been covered with coldness, was now glistening with tears.

Countless people who had been treated by Dong Qianqiu stared blankly at Dong Qianqiu. Since the disaster, this extremely beautiful woman had been like a shooting star across the night sky, her gaze never lingering on anyone for long. But why had she suddenly changed like this?

Dong Qianqiu completely ignored the countless astonished gazes. Her gaze swept over the group and finally landed on the dazed person. She bit her red lips and rushed over with a slightly aggrieved expression. Lan Youxin wanted to stop her, but when she saw Lin Yuan's blank eyes, her heart ached and she withdrew her leg.

"Lin Yuan, why are you back so late? So late!"

"The people of the Longma Galaxy bullied us, not only launching a war but also destroying our Home Planet like this. The teachers at the Tiandou Academy all perished in this disaster!"

Her voice resounded throughout the entire world, and the scorched earth of despair suddenly boiled over like water.

"The Human Sovereign has returned!"

"The Human Sovereign has returned!"

"We're saved!"
