The men all have broad shoulders, long legs, and eight-pack abs, the women are curvy with pronounced figures. Yet, their facial features remain the same, only optimized to perfection.

"I think it looks pretty good." An Ran is quite pleased with her new body.

She moves her limbs a bit, feeling the strength contained within her new physique, then looks in the mirror, suddenly hugging Xiao Jie, leaning into his ear, lowering her voice:

"Tonight... let’s give it a try."

Xiao Jie’s face turns red.

"Ahem ahem!" He coughs twice, looking elsewhere as if nothing happened.

This amuses An Ran.

"Um... by the way, why haven’t we seen Master Chen?"

The group finally comes to their senses, looking around.

Everyone is present—Ye Luo, An Ran, I Want to Be Immortal, Xia Yi the Unrivaled, Gu Feiyu, Han Luo, Hao Mie, ... all those brothers who died in the game are here, along with Ting Yu and I Want to Seal the Sky, not one missing.

The only one absent is Chen Tianwen.

"Where’s Chen?" Gu Feiyu curiously asked.

Xiao Jie sighs.

"He’s gone to the Great Thousand Worlds."

Everyone is surprised.

"He said... he wants to genuinely cultivate immortality and asking the Way, experiencing the carefree life of consuming immortal dew, wandering the four seas, traversing the primordial, and comprehending the true Dao." Xiao Jie gazes out the window at the sky, his eyes somewhat distant, "not relying on the game system to fight monsters and upgrade, but taking solid steps to understand the mysteries of heaven and earth."

Regarding Chen Tianwen’s choice, Xiao Jie is somewhat worried.

Although the Great Thousand Worlds have transformed, those twisted terrifying monsters have disappeared, but with the primordial beginning, various primitive and powerful lives are reborn and evolve. Those innate divine beasts, powerful demon race, primitive spirits... they won’t reason with you.

Danger will not be scarce.

However, thinking it over, Chen Tianwen is at least in the True Immortal Realm, even if he can’t defeat them, he should be able to escape, and although most players have returned home, quite a few have chosen to stay in the Great Thousand Worlds—there’s his face, so nothing major should happen.

In the worst case, he can always turn to the Divine Court for help, those three Demon Lords are thriving now, rebuilding the Heavenly Court, and becoming the first Heavenly Emperor.

"Jie!" Han Luo suddenly speaks, his voice somewhat excited, "Hahaha, we finally reunited again!" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Xiao Jie looks at him, feeling warmth in his heart.

Han Luo was submerged in the Nether River too long, his memory not entirely intact. After this long recovery, he has recovered quite a bit—although his experiences over those years are still blurry, his mind has completely cleared. Now returning to his old home, he recalls a lot of feelings from the past.

"Haha, Han!" Gu Feiyu happily throws an arm around Han Luo’s shoulder, extremely excited, "We can finally play games together again!"

Back in the studio days, he had a good relationship with Han Luo. Later hearing something happened to Han Luo, he was sad for a long time, now seeing him alive in front, the joy of regaining something lost is evident.

Xiao Jie is speechless, how come they don’t have any ambition, just know how to play games.

"So..." Ye Luo looks at Xiao Jie, "Has the world really been saved?"

Xiao Jie nods.

"That’s right. Everything has been resolved."

He pauses, his tone relaxing: "The only pity is that the game is gone. It won’t be easy to play games and cultivate immortality anymore. Fortunately, the coordinates of the Jiuzhou World and the Great Thousand Worlds are still there, if you want to go in the future, I can take you on a tour."

"Sounds great!" Hao Mie grins, feeling that with this new body, if he practices martial arts, he would definitely be gifted, even capable of achieving Dao through martial arts.

While chatting, Gu Feiyu suddenly remembers something: "By the way Jie, shouldn’t you tell Captain Li? After you left, he often called me to ask if you came back, dozens of calls this year.

It seems they were worried about the crisis too."

Xiao Jie nods, casually taking out his phone to make a call.

It rings twice, and connects.

"Hello, Captain Li? It’s me, Xiao Jie."

"Xiao Jie! Xiao Jie! It’s really you!"

The voice on the other end is extremely excited, almost shouting: "You finally came back! What’s the situation now? The game suddenly stopped just now, I thought you failed!"

"No, I succeeded." Xiao Jie’s voice is very calm, "The crisis has been resolved, no need to worry anymore. As for the game—that thing was just for selecting Heavenly Destiny People, it probably won’t launch again."

The other end is silent for a moment.

"Ah..." Captain Li’s voice is somewhat complex, "That’s great. Finally, we don’t have to worry about the doomsday crisis problem."

He hesitates, with a hint of regret in his tone: "Sigh, it’s just a pity."

"Pity?" Xiao Jie raises an eyebrow, "Pity about what?"

Why does he seem to be regretting?

"Nothing nothing!" Captain Li quickly says, "Anyway, welcome back! We might need your help in the future."

He clears his throat, his tone becoming solemn: "By the way, someone wants to meet you, talk to you. Is that convenient?"

Xiao Jie is silent for a second.

He can guess who wants to meet him.

"Not convenient." He says indifferently.

The other end is silent again.

"I’m not meeting anyone." Xiao Jie’s voice remains calm, but carries an undeniable detachment, "However, if there are tasks beneficial to the country and nation, you can find me. But if it’s other matters, then forget it."

He pauses, slightly intensifying his tone:

"Also—I hate being disturbed. I just saved the world, and want to rest properly. Any person—I mean anyone! If they affect my mood due to ridiculous reasons, I don’t mind showing them the abilities of a Daluo Golden Immortal."

The other end is silent for a long time.

Then, Captain Li’s voice comes with a bitter smile:

"I understand."

Hanging up the phone, Xiao Jie smiles slightly.

Finally able to rest properly.

No life or death pressure, no doomsday tribulation, none of those plotting or scheming.

As a Daluo Golden Immortal, he can finally relax and enjoy life.

Back in the studio days, he always thought of economically free life, able to sleep in, eat what he wants, without life’s pressures, economically free, go wherever he wants. Now, it is finally realized.

Speaking of which... what’s next?

He looks out at the sky.

The sun is just right, a gentle breeze.

Being alive, feels wonderful.
