The Legend of the Princess' Counterattack

Chapter 980: The Covenant of Breaking the Boundary

Yun Yao, a wisp of Chaos Fire condensed on her fingertips, carefully mended the cracks at the edge of her small world. This was her daily routine after the merger of the three thousand worlds. The Hongmeng Universe appeared stable, but in reality, undercurrents surged. Every slight change in one world would trigger a chain reaction throughout this vast space.

Suddenly, the Chaos Fire in her hand trembled violently, transforming into a phoenix with outstretched wings, soaring into the sky. Yun Yao's heart tightened; this was Chu Mochen's emergency signal. In a flash, she appeared in the Temple of Creation. The Universal Mirror in the center of the temple began to ripple strangely. The reflection wasn't of the Three Thousand Worlds, but rather a glimpse of the modern world—a cozy study filled with books.

In the study, a woman who bore a striking resemblance to her sat at her computer, her eyes weary yet focused as she typed away. Yun Yao recognized her as the modern-day Su Yao, the "author" who had once created her. On Su Yao's screen, the document for "The Time Traveler's Peerless Princess' Counterattack" was prominently displayed. The latest chapter stopped at the moment when Yun Yao and Chu Mochen faced off in the Heavenly Dao Palace.

"She's still writing our story." Chu Mochen appeared behind her at some point, his voice tinged with emotion. He reached out and gently stroked the Universal Mirror, causing ripples to appear on the surface. "But she seems to be in trouble."

Yun Yao looked carefully and found that there were tears in the corners of Su Yao's eyes. Countless readers' comments popped up in the lower right corner of the computer screen: "The heroine is too weak, I'm giving up!" "The plot is old-fashioned, I can't stand it!" "Has the author run out of ideas?" These negative comments came like a tide, and Su Yao's fingers hovered over the keyboard, and she didn't put them down for a long time.

At this moment, Su Yao's phone suddenly rang. It was an incoming call from an unfamiliar number. She hesitated for a moment, but finally answered the call. A harsh, mocking voice came from the other end of the line: "Su Yao, what kind of rubbish novel did you write? It can't even get a contract. Give up as soon as possible!" Su Yao's face turned pale in an instant, and her phone slipped and fell heavily to the ground.

Yun Yao reached out to touch the mirror with a distressed look, but found that her hand had passed through the mirror image and directly touched Su Yao's shoulder. Su Yao was shocked and turned her head in horror, but saw nothing. "It's me, Yun Yao." Yun Yao said softly, her voice echoing in the void, "Thank you for creating me. Now, it's my turn to protect you."

Su Yao's eyes flashed with doubt. She subconsciously touched her shoulder and muttered to herself, "Could it be an auditory hallucination?" At this moment, a simple wooden box suddenly appeared on her desk. The silhouettes of Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were engraved on the lid. Su Yao opened the box with trembling hands. Inside lay a book emitting a faint light. It was the physical copy of "The Legend of the Concubine of the World"

Su Yao opened the book, and a line of golden handwriting slowly emerged on the blank space of the last page: "Dear author, the character you created already has self-awareness. Do you want to activate the "cross-dimensional linkage"? " She covered her mouth in surprise. Before she could react, a ray of light suddenly shot out from the book, dragging her into a fantasy space.

When Su Yao opened her eyes again, she found herself in a library floating in the clouds. Bookshelves towered all around her, each volume radiating a different light, representing a story from a different world. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stood in the center of the library, smiling and waving at her.

"Welcome to Hongmeng Book Pavilion." Yun Yao stepped forward and held Su Yao's hand. "This place contains all the stories of the Three Thousand Worlds, and you are not only the creator of our story, but also a part of it."

Su Yao was still in shock and stammered, "What...what's going on? Am I not writing a novel?"

Chu Mochen handed over a cup of tea with a strange aroma and said, "You created our world and gave us life and soul. But as the story progressed, we developed self-awareness and began to rewrite our own destiny. And now, you will also become a part of the story."

Su Yao still found it hard to believe: "But my novel is so poorly written that readers don't like it..."

Yun Yao shook her head slightly and led Su Yao to a huge French window. Outside the window, countless rivers of light flowed, each representing a world. Su Yao was surprised to find that in one of the rivers of light, the scene of the cultivation world she created was playing, but the plot was very different from her original manuscript.

"Look, this is your story, but it's taken on a new dimension." Yun Yao pointed at Guanghe and said, "Liu Yan'er is no longer just a villain. In another world, she has become a defender of the Way of Heaven, helping more people rewrite their destinies. All of this stems from the readers' resonance and the character's awakening."

Su Yao was stunned: "So, my character really came back to life?"

"That's not all." Yun Yao smiled mysteriously and took Su Yao to a special bookshelf. The bookshelf was filled with blank books, each with a different person's name on the cover. "These are the story books of every person in the Hongmeng Universe." Yun Yao explained, "Everyone is the author of his or her own story, and you, Su Yao, your mission is to help more people find the courage to write their own stories."

At this moment, the library suddenly shook violently, and a black shadow rushed out from the depths of the bookshelf, instantly enveloping Su Yao. "Be careful!" Yun Yao and Chu Mochen attacked at the same time, but the black shadow avoided their attacks like a phantom.

A sneer came from the black shadow: "Su Yao, do you think you can sit back and relax after creating these characters? Your story is full of loopholes and is doomed to fail!" The black shadow turned into a man in a black robe with a twisted smile on his face. He held a black pen in his hand, and black ink dripped from the tip of the pen. Wherever it went, books turned to ashes.

"Who are you?" Su Yao asked in horror.

The man in black robe laughed: "I am the embodiment of your inner fear and self-doubt! You can't write a good story because you don't believe in yourself at all!" He waved a black pen and wrote a line of words in the void. In an instant, the light of the entire library dimmed, and countless books began to damage.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen immediately attacked, engaging in a fierce battle with the black-robed man. However, the black-robed man's power seemed to be connected to Su Yao's emotions. The more frightened Su Yao was, the stronger he became. "Don't be influenced by him!" Yun Yao shouted to Su Yao while fighting, "You have to believe in yourself and believe in the story you created!"

Su Yao watched Yun Yao and Chu Mochen fight desperately to protect her, and she remembered her love and dream for writing. She clenched her fists, and a surge of strength surged in her heart: "No! I will not give up! I created Yun Yao, she taught me what courage and perseverance are. How can I retreat here?"

A determined light flashed in Su Yao's eyes. She reached out and grabbed the black pen of the black-robed man and shouted, "My story should be written by myself!" The black pen struggled violently in her hand, but Su Yao did not back down. She used all her strength to break the black pen into two pieces.

The black-robed man let out a scream and dissipated in a puff of black smoke. The light in the library returned to normal, and the damaged books were restored to their original state. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at Su Yao with satisfaction, their eyes full of admiration.

"You did it." Yun Yao walked forward and hugged Su Yao. "From now on, you are no longer a confused author, but the story guardian of the Hongmeng Universe."

Su Yao wiped away her tears and smiled brightly: "it turns out that I am also the protagonist of my own story."

Before leaving, Yun Yao handed Su Yao a book, which was the "Time Travel: The Counterattack of the Peerless Princess". "When you encounter injustice in reality, please open the last page of this book." Yun Yao said mysteriously, "We will always be waiting for you in the story."

Su Yao returned to the real world, clutching the book tightly in her hands. She opened the last page, and the previously blank paper gradually revealed a scene of her, Yun Yao, and Chu Mochen fighting side by side in the Hongmeng Library. She sat down at her computer, looking at the document "The Legend of the Princess' Counterattack" with a confident smile on her face, and began to write a new chapter: "The true story will never end, because everyone who bravely pursues their dreams is writing their own chapter of counterattack..."

Outside the window, sunlight shines on the keyboard, illuminating Su Yao's determined face. She knows that this is not the end of the story, but a new beginning. In this world full of infinite possibilities, everyone is the author of their own destiny and can write their own wonderful life.
