My carefree life in space

Chapter 294 Fame Spreads Across the Continent

Lin Shushu clearly felt that the pain and discomfort that had once raged in her body were gradually disappearing, and her aura, which had become weak due to the invasion of demonic energy, was becoming steady and powerful.

"Thank you, senior!" Lin Shushu said respectfully in her mind, her eyes filled with gratitude. She knew that if it weren't for Di Xu's help, she didn't know how much time and effort it would have taken to completely eliminate the demonic energy from her body.

The phantom of Emperor Xu nodded slightly, a gentle smile on his face. "No need to be polite, this is the result of your own efforts. Now that the demonic energy has been eliminated, your body will recover quickly after you wake up."

Emperor Xu's voice was like a booming bell, yet it carried a hint of benevolence. After he finished speaking, his illusory image gradually dissipated, and the surrounding light gradually dimmed.

Lin Shushu was startled, suddenly remembering what Di Xu had said when he appeared earlier, "Senior, where will you go in the future? Will you really not appear again?" Her voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of worry.

The almost transparent Emperor Xu moved his lips, as if to say something, but in the end he only smiled faintly. That smile contained relief, but also a hint of helplessness.

After sealing the demon god, he knew that the demon god would one day return, and then the seal would no longer be able to contain him. In order to completely eliminate the demon god, his clan voluntarily sacrificed themselves, sealing their divine power and falling into slumber, both as atonement and for the future of this world.

"Girl, don't worry about me." Di Xu's voice was gentle and steady, as if it carried a power that could soothe people's hearts. "Our clan's mission has been completed. Now that the Demon God has been eliminated, this continent will usher in a new era of life."

Lin Shushu's eyes reddened slightly. She knew how much sacrifice Di Xu and the others had made; otherwise, how could a demon god who had accumulated power for millions of years have been so easily killed?

"But, seniors, your sacrifices are too great..."

Emperor Xu shook his head, his eyes revealing a firm resolve.

“Some things have to be done by someone. We have made mistakes in the past, and being able to make amends in this way is a kind of relief. Moreover, I believe that with you and many other people with a sense of justice, this continent will definitely get better and better.”

Lin Shushu bit her lip, fighting back tears, and nodded heavily. "Don't worry, senior, I will definitely do my best to protect this continent and live up to your expectations."

Emperor Xu smiled with satisfaction, his figure becoming increasingly transparent, as if he might disappear at any moment.

"Alright, girl, you should rest well. Remember, no matter what difficulties you encounter, never give up." After saying that, his figure completely disappeared from Lin Shushu's consciousness.

A wave of disappointment washed over Lin Shushu, but her gaze quickly hardened. She knew that her previous desire to simply give up had to change; she had to carry on, carrying the hopes of Di Xu and the others.

In reality, Lin Shushu's body moved slightly, and her brows gradually relaxed. However, she did not wake up immediately, but instead fell into a deeper sleep. This was her body repairing itself and accumulating strength.

Mo Ze held her tightly, feeling the change in her, and a surge of joy welled up in his heart.

While Lin Shushu slept, Venerable Lingyun and the others acted swiftly and methodically, handling matters in the Dark Abyss. They knew this was a crucial juncture concerning the future of the continent, allowing no room for carelessness.

Venerable Lingyun summoned many righteous cultivators, and they sat together to discuss countermeasures.

After a heated discussion, they reached a consensus: they would not exterminate the demon race. After all, the demon race was also one of the many beings in this vast world, and every life had its own meaning; they had no right to deprive the demon race of its right to exist.

Moreover, besides the demon race, there are also wars between humans and other races, and killing has always been a reality that cannot be ignored.

However, this does not mean they will stand idly by and watch the evil deeds of the demons. They have established clear rules: if the demons live peacefully in the Dark Abyss and do not come out to harass humans and other races, they will not intervene.

If demons want to travel on the continent, they must strictly abide by the rules of the human race and must not act recklessly or harm others.

In the process, they dispatched highly respected and powerful cultivators to the Dark Abyss to convey these decisions to the demons.

The demons reacted differently to this decision. Some demons were dissatisfied with it, believing it was a restriction on them; but more demons understood that this was the best possible outcome. They had done so much before just to live openly and honestly on the continent, so why not seize the opportunity now that they had it?

More importantly, the demons have been completely destroyed, their spiritual pillar has collapsed, so what is the point of resistance?

Everyone knows that peaceful coexistence between humans and demons is unlikely to be achieved for a long time, given the deep-seated hatred and conflicts between them. But everything has its day, and it remains to be seen what the demons will choose.

If the demon race can coexist peacefully with other races, then the continent may truly usher in a day of peaceful coexistence; conversely, if they remain obstinate and continue to commit evil deeds, they will surely face even harsher sanctions.

Of course, the acceptance of the demon race by humans is a long process, after all, the harm has existed for so long, no one can easily accept it.

Next, the mainland will enter a relatively peaceful period, and both sides need to recuperate. As for whether the demons will step out of the abyss again, perhaps a trigger is needed, and it depends on when that trigger comes.

After dealing with these matters, Venerable Lingyun and the others felt a great weight lifted from their hearts. They knew that there was still much to be done, such as restoring order to the continent and helping those who had been harmed in the war.

At the same time, news of the demon god's demise spread rapidly across the continent like a strong east wind, causing a sensation throughout the land. Along with this exhilarating news, the name Lin Shushu also spread.

Those who had suffered greatly at the hands of the demons finally had their long-suppressed fear and pain released. In their eyes, Lin Shushu was no longer an ordinary woman, but a savior like a goddess.

With her own strength, unwavering will, and immense power, she waged a fierce battle against the demon god, ultimately defeating him and freeing them from the demonic threat, thus restoring peace and tranquility.

Therefore, people regarded Lin Shushu as their faith with utmost respect and gratitude. In some towns and villages, people spontaneously built shrines for her and enshrined her portrait high in the temple.

Every day, many people come to the ancestral hall to offer flowers and sacrifices, and pray sincerely that Lin Shushu can bless them with peace and prosperity.

In the market, the story of Lin Shushu was passed down by word of mouth, spreading wider and wider. The storyteller sat on a high platform, vividly recounting the thrilling scenes of Lin Shushu's battle with the demon god, while the audience below listened with rapt attention, occasionally letting out bursts of amazement and cheers.

Lin Shushu's name became a household name across the mainland. However, Lin Shushu was still asleep at this time, unaware that she had become a hero in people's hearts.
