Chapter 591: I'm Back, Everyone!
Chapter 591: I'm Back, Everyone!
Upon hearing Cindy Doppler's statement, the crowd below first exchanged incredulous glances before erupting into a frenzy of cheers:
"Long live the Prime Minister!"
"You are truly noble!"
"Prime Minister, I will support you for the rest of my life!"
The public's support for Doppler surged dramatically, with many reaching a level of fanatical admiration.
It was hard for them to imagine a person who, faced with the divine envoy's gift of trillions in wealth, would remain so principled and selfless, donating it all to the nation. This was a noble soul, a pure individual, one who had transcended base desires, and one who was a great benefit to the people.
For such a person to lead them was a blessing for the nation of Beck! Many Beck citizens were moved to tears, pulling out their phones to share this proud moment online.
The entire incident exploded across the Skrull network, and within a day, it had spread to the citizens of other countries.
Netizens envied Cindy Doppler's good fortune while also showering her with praise. Someone who could sacrifice so much for the nation, such a great person, absolutely deserved commendation!
In Beck, Cindy Doppler's "public support index" soared again, breaking 70% and steadily approaching 75%.
Internationally, wealthy individuals from various countries were also closely following the situation.
Once small-capacity spatial rings went into mass production, their prices would drop significantly. Many billionaires who couldn't afford or were hesitant to buy them could consider purchasing a few once the prices came down.
Cindy Doppler was overjoyed.
Just a few days ago, he was still worrying about how to use the fake technology of "producing small spatial rings" to deceive investors. Now, with Link's endorsement, he didn't even need to personally seek out investments. He just needed to make a brief statement in his office, and international capital and monopolistic conglomerates would eagerly seek cooperation.
Before long, Beck's financial crisis would be alleviated.
"Su Yu is a reliable ally. I can't let him down. I must do my best here!" he thought to himself.
The scene shifts back to Earth.
Su Yu quickly dashed out of Donna's house.
Now that Donna was fast asleep and Link had left through a portal, Su Yu was spared the trouble of saying goodbye.
After leaving Donna's mansion, Su Yu released his unique aura, allowing it to spread rapidly throughout the capital.
High-ranking cultivators stationed in the capital almost instantly picked up on his aura.
Upon recognizing it as Su Yu's, they were filled with immense shock and joy!
Su Yu was alive! He hadn't died!
Almost all the high-ranking cultivators in the capital took to the skies, flying toward Su Yu's location.
Some were in the middle of meals and didn't even have time to put down their chopsticks, flying over with them still in hand while using their phones to spread the good news.
Su Yu also took out his phone and logged into the official forum, posting a thread titled: "Hello everyone, I'm back from Skrull! Did you miss me?"
The moment the post went up, the official forum nearly crashed. Almost everyone who saw it rushed to click in, causing the forum to freeze up completely due to the overwhelming traffic.
In a house in a city in Jiangsu, Zhong Luoluo (Snowfall) stared dumbfounded at Su Yu's new post, feeling a wave of dizziness.
In recent days, the entire human world has been enveloped in a fog of confusion and despair, and she was no exception.
Every time she felt like she couldn't hold on any longer, she would visit Su Yu's personal space, reminiscing about the days when he was still around, and hoping for a miracle.
Now, the miracle had actually come true, but Zhong Luolu felt lost and bewildered, as if everything was surreal.
She collapsed onto the floor, tears streaming down her cheeks.
She didn't know why she was crying; her mind was a chaotic mess, but the tears wouldn't stop.
Zhong Luolu's reaction mirrored the feelings of most people who had already heard the news.
Everyone felt like they were in a dream, some shouting, some jumping, and others standing in stunned silence.
Many, like Zhong Luolu, cried their eyes out, for the past five days had been the most agonizing of their lives.
Su Yu's return felt like the first ray of sunlight breaking through the clouds after a torrential rain.
This ray of sunlight was hope!
...
Tang Na lived in a wealthy neighborhood surrounded by villas. Even from where Su Yu stood, he could hear the sounds of people jumping and shouting from the surrounding homes. It was clear that everyone wanted to release their pent-up emotions.
Su Yu knew what he had to do.
He took a deep breath, his voice solemn and serious, and said, "Hello everyone, this is Su Yu. I am not dead. I just returned from the planet Skrull. Please don't worry about me."
His voice, amplified by magic, spread quickly, reaching the entire capital and the surrounding towns and villages in no time.
He also manually created a series of miniature portals that connected to different parts of the country, ensuring his message was heard nationwide.
With the help of magic and the portals, his voice covered every major city in the nation in a matter of moments.
Upon hearing this familiar voice, most residents were both shocked and overjoyed, while the collaborators looked as if they had lost their souls.
In short, the entire nation knew that Su Yu had returned!
In the capital, the first to reach Su Yu was Chancellor Cao. He flew over as soon as he sensed Su Yu's presence.
A god-tier powerhouse, he covered the 20 kilometers in just over 10 seconds, arriving above Tang Na's house.
Looking at the unharmed Su Yu, he couldn't believe his eyes. "Su Yu, I never thought you would still be alive! I found your remains on Mount Tian after you died."
"That wasn't the real me," Su Yu explained using a telepathic spell. "It was a doppelganger, identical to my true form, which led everyone to believe it was me.
In fact, three days before the doppelganger's death, my true form was already on Skrull."
Su Yu didn't hide anything from Chancellor Cao and told him the truth.
"Oh! I see," Chancellor Cao said, understanding dawning on him.
He hadn't considered the possibility of a doppelganger. After all, creating a perfect clone was a feat only achieved by Great Ascension cultivators. He never imagined Su Yu could do it and keep it a secret.
But no matter what, the fact that Su Yu was alive was a tremendous blessing!
Chancellor Cao patted Su Yu's shoulder, his emotions running high. "Thank goodness you're alive! Otherwise, I would have had to sign that ridiculous agreement with the Skrullians and sell Blue Star to them!"
