"Father, although your son is very unwilling to fight you, I have no choice but to come back and hammer you." Lin Yu thought, then collected his thoughts: "Everyone, let's set off, it's time for us to go home!"
"Yes!!"
Lin Yu spurred his horse on, rushing back to Spirit City.
"After half a year apart, my heart misses Xue'er Jie so much. It seems I've truly fallen for her."
Ever since Qian Renxue abandoned the Heaven Dou infiltration plan and faked her death to return, Lin Yu had spent almost every day with Qian Renxue, rarely separating, and certainly never for as long as half a year.
Lin Yu had long known he was moved by Qian Renxue, but he didn't know how deep his feelings for her were.
It wasn't until this half-year separation that he finally understood that his heart had long been completely occupied by Qian Renxue.
Now that he understood his feelings for Qian Renxue, Lin Yu was unwilling to let things continue like this.
He decided that upon his return, he would break through that veil with Qian Renxue, express his feelings, and make Qian Renxue his woman.
And Qian Renxue also missed Lin Yu immensely, constantly waiting for his return.
A few days later.
Lin Yu led his troops back in triumph!
"Dugu Bo, you go report the results of our trip for me. I'm going to the Hall of Offerings to find Xue'er Jie."
"Yes!" Dugu Bo cupped his hands.
A moment later, Dugu Bo, bearing a wealth of achievements, entered the high-level meeting and reported the Spirit Master forces Lin Yu had subdued on this trip one by one.
The high-level officials present were pleasantly surprised upon hearing this!
"What!! Hall Master Lin Yu actually subdued so many Spirit Master forces, that's great! This simply exceeds our expectations!!"
"Who would have thought that Hall Master Lin Yu is not only astonishingly talented, but also so excellent in his duties!"
The high-level officials praised him endlessly.
Initially, when Qian Daoliu assigned Lin Yu this task, many high-level officials were not optimistic. They thought Lin Yu was too young and would not handle the matter well, or even make things worse.
However, they never expected Lin Yu to not only complete it, but to exceed their expectations by over-completing it.
Now, Lin Yu's performance, influence, and prestige in Spirit Hall have once again soared, almost reaching a level on par with Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong.
On the other side, Lin Yu impatiently went to find Qian Renxue!
"Xue'er Jie, I'm back!"
Lin Yu rushed into the Hall of Offerings, but was soon stopped by Gold Crocodile Douluo.
"Little Yu! The Young Master should now focus on completing the first Angel assessment. If you go in to see her, I'm afraid the Young Master will be distracted. Please don't blame Golden Crocodile Grandpa for stopping you!" Gold Crocodile Douluo said, blocking his path.
"Golden Crocodile Grandpa is also doing it for Xue'er Jie's good. Lin Yu understands, so how could he blame Golden Crocodile Grandpa?" Lin Yu was naturally a little disappointed that he couldn't see the person he longed for.
But he didn't insist, cupping his hands and saying: "Then I ask Golden Crocodile Grandpa to convey a message for me, to let Xue'er Jie complete the first assessment first, and only after she completes it, then inform her of my return."
"Good, I will convey it for you."
"Thank you, Golden Crocodile Grandpa."
Lin Yu cupped his hands again and slowly turned back.
Gold Crocodile Douluo then entered Qian Renxue's assessment area.
At this moment, Qian Renxue was diligently completing her first assessment, with Qian Daoliu silently accompanying her from a distance.
Gold Crocodile Douluo came to Qian Daoliu's side and whispered: "High Priest, Little Yu is back."
Qian Daoliu said: "Currently, Little Xue doesn't have absolute confidence to complete the first assessment, so it's best not to let the two of them meet. Let Little Yu wait for a while."
"I understand, I've already informed Little Yu."
"Hmm, these two children, one just returned and is impatient to meet, the other constantly asks every day if he's back, if he's back, haha." Qian Daoliu shook his head, smiling.
"Since I can't see Xue'er Jie right now, I'll focus on cultivating and break through to level 68 first."
Lin Yu, who hadn't seen Qian Renxue, didn't leave. He flew onto the roof of the building opposite the Hall of Offerings, intending to meditate and cultivate there.
Qian Renxue was in the hall directly opposite, only a few hundred meters separated them, yet they couldn't see each other.
Lin Yu could only accompany her silently in this way nearby.
But Qian Renxue, in her assessment, seemed to sense Lin Yu's presence and his silent guardianship. This was her strong sixth sense and intuition.
She suddenly stopped her assessment and asked: "Grandpa! Lin Yu is back, isn't he?!"
"I can feel that he seems to be right beside me."
Qian Daoliu hesitated for a moment, then didn't hide it: "Little Xue, Little Yu has indeed returned, but right now, your first assessment isn't stable yet, it's best…"
"Grandpa!"
"I'll just see him once!"
"After seeing him once, I'll come back and calmly continue the assessment, okay?" Qian Renxue said with a serious expression.
She also made the same decision as Lin Yu.
She decided to break through that veil, express her feelings to Lin Yu, and truly be with him.
"Sigh, so be it." Qian Daoliu waved his hand, nodding in agreement: "Go, Little Xue."
"Thank you, Grandpa!!"
Qian Renxue was very happy and rushed out of the assessment area at the first opportunity.
Qian Daoliu shook his head with a bitter smile: "This girl has completely fallen!"
"Lin Yu! I've come to see you!"
She ran all the way to the exit of the Hall of Offerings, reaching the main door.
Rumble.
The Hall of Offerings' door was slowly pushed open by Qian Renxue with her bare hands.
"Hmm?"
At this moment, it was night.
On the rooftop of the building opposite the Hall of Offerings, Lin Yu, who was meditating and cultivating, also seemed to sense something. He slowly opened his eyes, stood up, and looked towards the large door that was being pushed open.
Qian Renxue pushed the door open and stepped out, looking around for Lin Yu's figure.
She hadn't yet discovered Lin Yu on the opposite rooftop, while Lin Yu had already seen Qian Renxue's figure.
Suddenly, a familiar voice entered Qian Renxue's ears.
"Hey, Xue'er Jie, are you looking for me?"
This familiar voice made Qian Renxue's heart tremble. She abruptly raised her head and finally saw Lin Yu's figure on the rooftop.
"Lin Yu!!"
On the rooftop, under the moonlight, Lin Yu stood tall and straight, the night wind blowing his clothes, a faint smile on his face.
This scene was remarkably similar to when Lin Yu left Sunset Forest, when he yearned for Qian Renxue's appearance, and finally, Qian Renxue appeared before Lin Yu.
At that time, she had also said something similar: "Hey, little brat, you're not looking for me, are you?"
Memories of the past instantly flooded her mind. She seemed to see Lin Yu as he was at seven years old.
He also seemed to see Qian Renxue at 14 years old.
In a flash, they had been together for four years!
Looking at them now, one was an 18-year-old charming young woman, beautiful and moving, with a graceful figure, exuding the demeanor of a true beauty.
The other was a refined and elegant, tall young man, incredibly handsome and dashing, displaying the heroic spirit of youth.
After half a year of separation, the two finally met again!
"Xue'er Jie, I'm back."
