366: ending

The great battle between Helden and the priest quickly concluded.

The powerhouses from both the alien race and the Human Race began to wrap up today's tragic war.

...

The next day.

Across the Human Race's land,

“The Super God Class suffered a major defeat against the Demon King Group, but also paid an unimaginable price; every sacrificed youth is a hero of the Federation.”

This was the headline of a front-page news article, and in just half a day, it had garnered over ten billion views.

The content of this news exploded across the entire Federation, igniting the flames of fury in the hearts of two hundred billion people!

It was a quiet and peaceful night.

Lin You, the administrator of Yuan Emperor's fan club, was wearing pajamas, watching her favorite soap opera.

She had her legs propped up, leisurely yawning, her eyes fixed on the TV, but her mind was counting the savings in her personal stash, a continuous smile on her face.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

Seeing the headline about the Super God Class, it must be related to Xiao Fan.

She immediately opened it, her gaze anxiously scanning downwards.

Until she reached the last paragraph.

She was stunned.

In this war, the Demon King Group suffered heavy losses.

But the Super God Class also lost people.

And one of those names was Xiao Fan.

Once, people called him Yuan Emperor.

Lin You rubbed her eyes, wondering if she had misread or if the character was typed incorrectly.

But after a long while, those two characters remained unchanged.

She frantically pulled the interface to the very top.

She wanted to see the source of this news report.

Was it some random, unreliable news outlet publishing nonsense?!

How could Xiao Fan die!?

But the four characters “Federal General Report” plunged Lin You into complete bewilderment.

Because this was official.

The official news would not lie, nor would they joke about such matters.

In fact, the comment section below had already been flooded by Xiao Fan's fans, with countless angry questions rising one after another.

Someone tried to find loopholes in the news, hoping to confirm that Xiao Fan was not dead!

But in the end, they only saw four characters left by official personnel.

“Everyone, our condolences.”

Lin You covered her mouth, her lips trembling.

Because it was too sudden.

Just moments ago, she was still fantasizing about a beautiful future.

The next second, the news of her hero's death had already arrived.

At this moment, she felt as if she was back at the Opening Class Battle, that summer when she used her Family's secret technique, Lion's Roar, to cheer for Xiao Fan.

No one thought highly of them.

Everyone believed that being Xiao Fan's fan was a sign of madness.

Because his talent was only Saint-Grade, yet he declared to the world, “Everyone present, except for me, is trash.”

At first, she just went to join the fun, curious to see how capable such an arrogant person was.

Until Xiao Fan won one battle after another.

Bringing about Miracle after Miracle.

Finally, he completely shattered the word “impossible” in people's worldview.

He also gathered a large number of fans, including Lin You.

If it were just simply following a star, Lin You would not feel sad.

But Xiao Fan was different!

In the eyes of his fans.

Xiao Fan was not just a Super God Class student; he was a symbol of spirit.

Representing unyielding resilience, tenacity, and that fervent desire to win, that will to keep going and keep winning no matter what!

Lin You felt that the most boast-worthy thing in her ordinary life was that she had met Xiao Fan and was even appointed as an administrator by him!

Even though she was very ordinary, very laid-back, living off Xiao Fan's salary, eating and drinking every day, and had even gained a few pounds recently.

But if she went out and said she was Xiao Fan's fan leader, and an officially certified one at that, everyone would look up to her, wondering if she also had the same spirit as Xiao Fan!

She couldn't reach Xiao Fan's level.

But she had also been working hard to Cultivate recently, a little harder than before.

Because sometimes she would fantasize that on that blood-soaked battlefield, when Xiao Fan was charging alone against a thousand, she could stand behind him, cheering and shouting, making the name of Yuan Emperor resound through the blood-stained sky.

She wanted to tell all enemies that Xiao Fan had the loudest fans in the world behind him.

Whether they could win or not, their Aura would never lose!

That scene was truly exciting to imagine…

She had even dreamt about it once.

But now?

He was just gone, that never-bowing figure, gone forever…

Lin You sat blankly on the sofa, her eyes cloudy, feeling utterly lost.

She wanted to cry, but she couldn't quite, she just felt very, very uncomfortable, as if her heart was blocked by a large stone.

Suddenly.

Another text message came to her phone.

She looked down.

“Transfer: 1,000,000 yuan.”

“Message: Continue to maintain my fan club well, keep up the good work.”

This was an automatic bank transfer service; Xiao Fan sent money at this exact time every month, with a message, always on time.

Even if he died, the money was still there, not a cent less, not a second late.

This was Xiao Fan.

At this moment.

In the previously quiet room, a sobbing sound suddenly broke out.

The soft pillow by Lin You's hand also became somewhat damp.

...

At Di Yi Academy.

In the Elemental Reaction Laboratory, Elder Liu Tianguang and Senior Brother Zheng Qiong were tidying up things in the brightly lit office.

They were leaving for the front lines tomorrow to provide support, and they had successfully applied to go to Shanhai Pass, which was a joyous thing because Xiao Fan was there.

Liu Tianguang meticulously counted the Element Seed he had prepared for Xiao Fan.

He knew that Xiao Fan's Element Seed could be stacked to become higher-grade ones.

So, he and Zheng Qiong took out ninety percent of their savings, almost buying out all the Element Seed in Di Yi Academy.

At this moment, he was counting them to himself.

“Five Elements… thirty Nine-Star, five of each type; fifteen Venerable-Grade, three of each type.”

“Just right.”

Finally, a smile appeared on his face.

“Little Zheng, now that Xiao Fan's Realm has Advanced to Great Grandmaster, he can withstand stronger elemental pressure. How is that Heavenly Disaster Domain formula you calculated before?”

Zheng Qiong nodded seriously, saying, “It's almost done. When we get to Shanhai Pass, we'll measure Xiao Fan's current elemental strength and make some improvements.”

Suddenly, he glanced at the pastries his wife and daughter had made for him next to the computer, gently putting them into his Storage Ring, planning to let Xiao Fan try them too.

After they had organized everything, both sighed in relief and sat in the office to rest.

As Liu Tianguang thought of the Heavenly Disaster Domain, he couldn't help but smile. After taking a sip of water, he sighed emotionally, “It's rare to have such leisure in life…”

“Once we enter Shanhai Pass, the work intensity will definitely be higher. Be mentally prepared.”

“Okay!” Zheng Qiong nodded heavily, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

Suddenly.

Hurried footsteps came from the hallway.

Zheng Qiong turned his head, only to see his daughter Zheng Qiong rushing up anxiously, her small face tear-streaked.

“What's wrong? Why are you crying?” Zheng Qiong was somewhat flustered.

Zheng Qiong said tremblingly, “Dad… Brother Xiao Fan… is dead!”
