After receiving the money, the miners began to leave one after another.

Some people, before leaving, deliberately came to Yun You's side... For example, that mother and daughter stood in front of Yun You, staring silently at the little girl.

People naturally understood Yun You's intention of not leaving.

This time, they had caused too much of a ruckus. Not only did they smash up the mine, but they also left Yang Lie, the "Civil Protection Officer," with no resting place.

The Nest City Council would never let them off. If no one stepped in to take responsibility for these actions, they would all die with no one spared.

Yun You was saving them.

But after saving them, what would happen to the little girl herself?

The miners were afraid of exactly this, which is why they worried about Yun You's safety.

However, the little girl did not care, merely smiling and nodding to the people coming and going, signaling that they could leave without worrying about her and that she would handle everything herself.

Seeing this, despite having many things to say, the miners could only swallow their words.

They truly couldn't help; the upcoming matters would definitely exceed their capacity to intervene.

Taking the money and leaving quickly without causing trouble for the little girl was their greatest contribution.

In the end, the miners stood together, silently bowing to Yun You, and then left in a hurry.

And Yun You, in return, gave them a smile.

After everyone left, the little girl casually found a small slope at the entrance of the mine and sat down boldly.

She took out her phone, reconnected to the internet, submitted her mission on the Death God Organization's forum website, and finally, using the "task issuer account" stolen from Yang Lie, easily passed the review.

Though the news of Yang Lie's incident had already spread, data on various forums and networks weren't interconnected, so Yang Lie's account could still be used, allowing Yun You to exploit this loophole.

The organization was very efficient. Within a few minutes, a drone flew over, delivering Alrior's antidote to the little girl.

In fact, there were three doses of the Alrior antidote. The first dose was distributed immediately after the Death God completed a mission, aimed at alleviating the toxin so the Apprentice Death God wouldn't die.

The other two doses were distributed by designated personnel after the organization reviewed the mission completion circumstances, capable of completely lifting Alrior's limit on the body and allowing the Death God to exit the internship period and fully step into their "Tier One".

Yun You didn't expect to receive the latter two doses in the short term, but having the first dose to keep her alive was already very satisfying.

Without any hesitation, she poured the potion into her mouth, and the antidote didn't disappoint. Within a few breaths, it relieved the stabbing pain in her chest, completely neutralizing Alrior's deadly threat.

After eliminating the major threat, the little girl thought for a bit and then dialed a number.

It was the number of her costly mentor—Old Jin.

Fortunately, Old Jin, usually elusive and never seen, answered the call instantly this time.

"What's up, kid? Why the sudden thought of contacting me?"

Old Jin's specially processed voice came through the receiver.

Though the tone had been completely altered, his gentle demeanor was still reassuring.

"Calling me at this time... is it about the mission?"

"Did you finish the trial mission?"

"Yes, it's all done."

Yun You nodded lightly but then lowered her head, speaking in a small voice, "But the situation might be more troublesome than you imagine..."

"I'm not afraid of trouble, go ahead and say it," Old Jin replied with a laugh, without any hint of reproach or complaint.

"You're my student, even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you, so don't be afraid."

Hearing this, Yun You exhaled a long breath and stopped hiding, narrating the whole story of the event to Old Jin in detail.

Starting from taking the task to the subsequent trip to Yangshan Town, then the whole origin of Taishui... and finally how Yang Lie betrayed them but was slain by her.

Yun You talked very detailed, except for her awakening ability, she told her mentor almost everything.

She knew that hiding Taishui's existence... and her killing those noble people didn't make any sense.

With Old Jin's capability, investigating it would be as easy as eating or drinking water.

Telling the truth would allow Old Jin to provide feedback quicker, there was nothing to hide.

Moreover, Yun You herself felt no guilt.

...

After listening to Yun You's account, Old Jin also fell silent.

The little girl initially thought her costly mentor would scold her, considering she killed so many people, involving very complicated matters.

But to her surprise, Old Jin actually clapped his hands, praising repeatedly.

"Well done! Well done!"

"I haven't been to G District for years, and I never expected such an atrocity to occur at that mine..."

"Girl, you did nothing wrong; they all deserved to die."

Old Jin was rarely enraged.

"Though I didn't expect you'd leave no one behind, thinking it over, it's not wrong."

"People can be arrested, slowly reformed in prison, but those who commit cold-blooded murder must be eradicated. If a problem cannot be solved, then get rid of the person causing the problem."

"Your final actions were also correct."

"When a good person has seen the darkest side of this world, they might go to extremes or become stained, becoming a delicate grey, aligning with those they once despised."

"But we are unwilling to do so; we won't compromise. That's our only difference from them."

"This time, I have no reason not to support my good student."

"I'll come over as soon as possible, but before I arrive, you might want to cooperate a bit with the judges coming to investigate. Most of them are neutral; they shouldn't trouble you much."

"And if anyone dares to trouble you, then just mention my name."

"Some people need to know I've taken a new student named Yun You."

With that, Old Jin hung up the call, seemingly on his way back.

With Old Jin's promise, Yun You felt relieved.

She knew that she had her mentor's approval.

She was not alone.

So, after entrusting Frost Moon with some follow-up matters, Yun You dismissed all the mine staff, intending to wait alone for the incoming parties.

Frost Moon initially hesitated, but eventually, the little girl persuaded her to leave.

However, there was one person who remained by Yun You's side, through wind and rain, never leaving.

And that was Aurora.
