Rift: Countdown to Doomsday

Chapter 225: Return of the Hero

The smoke from the war had not yet dissipated from the ruins. Lin Xuan led the team slowly out of the battlefield, and they were greeted by endless cheers and their companions with tears in their eyes.

Lin Xuan patted the dust off his shoulders and looked at Su Wan'er beside him, "It's finally over."

Su Wan'er nodded, tears flashing in her eyes, "Yes, we finally won."

At this time, Li Hao hurried over with a happy smile on his face, "Brother Lin, Sister Wan'er, everyone is waiting for you, the celebration banquet is about to begin!"

Lin Xuan smiled and nodded, "Okay, we'll go there right away."

In the village square, the villagers had already prepared a grand banquet, and the long table was filled with a variety of delicacies. In the crowd, mentor Zhao Linger stood high up, smiling at the arrival of Lin Xuan and Su Waner.

"Master!" Lin Xuan stepped forward quickly and saluted respectfully.

Zhao Linger nodded with satisfaction, "Well done, Lin Xuan. Not only did you complete the task, but you also led everyone out of despair."

Lin Xuan smiled modestly, "This is the result of everyone's joint efforts. Without their support, I couldn't have done it alone."

Zhao Linger smiled, turned around and said to the crowd below the stage, "Today, we want to celebrate for these brave warriors who have protected our homeland with their blood, sweat and wisdom!"

The villagers applauded and cheers resounded through the sky.

At the banquet, Lin Xuan and his companions raised their glasses and drank, talking about every detail of the battle.

"Lin Xuan, what are you going to do next?" Su Wan'er asked.

Lin Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "Although we have temporarily repelled the enemy, I always feel that there is a bigger conspiracy behind it. We need to continue exploring, find out the mastermind behind the scenes, and completely eradicate this threat."

"I support you, Lin Xuan." Li Hao said firmly, "No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are ahead, we will fight side by side with you."

"Yes, we brothers will never leave you." Other companions also expressed their support.

Lin Xuan nodded with emotion, "Thank you, with you here, I have the confidence to overcome all difficulties."

The dinner lasted until late at night with laughter and joy. Everyone dispersed one after another. Lin Xuan stood alone at the entrance of the village, looking at the starry sky in the distance, his heart full of hope and determination.

"Lin Xuan." Su Wan'er's voice came from behind.

Lin Xuan turned around and saw Su Wan'er walking slowly towards him. Under the moonlight, her figure looked particularly soft and beautiful.

"Wan'er, why don't you go and rest?" Lin Xuan asked.

Su Wan'er smiled slightly, "I know you don't plan to rest. We are leaving tomorrow, don't you need to prepare anything?"

Lin Xuan nodded, "Indeed, some things need to be arranged in advance."

Su Wan'er approached Lin Xuan and whispered, "No matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will stay by your side and never leave you."

Lin Xuan looked at Su Wan'er deeply and held her hand. "Thank you, Wan'er. You are more important to me than anything else."

Su Wan'er's cheeks flushed slightly, and she whispered, "Let's go, let's get ready together."

The two walked deep into the village together and began to prepare for the upcoming new journey.

The next morning, the sun shone in every corner of the village. Lin Xuan and his team were ready to go, and the villagers came to see them off, full of reluctance and expectation.

Zhao Linger stood at the entrance of the village and reminded Lin Xuan for the last time, "Remember, no matter what difficulties you encounter, don't give up easily. You are our hope."

Lin Xuan nodded firmly, "Master, we will definitely complete the mission and return victoriously."

The team embarked on a new journey, Lin Xuan and Su Wan'er walked in front of the team, their hearts filled with endless hope and determination. They knew that there would be countless challenges on the road ahead, but as long as everyone united as one, they would be able to overcome everything and create a new legend.
