A bed that traverses countless worlds

Lin Yu and Ada stood before the mysterious entrance, as if they were at the end of the world.

Darkness, like a greedy beast, opened its blood-red maw, ready to devour them.

Ada's eyes were filled with reluctance and worry as she held Lin Yu's hand tightly, as if she wanted to transfer all her strength to him.

Lin Yu took a deep breath

"Let's go!" Lin Yu said firmly, taking the lead into the darkness.

Ada followed closely behind, and the two were instantly swallowed by darkness.

They had expected to be met with a maze of traps and ferocious monsters, and were prepared for a near-death experience. But to their surprise, the entrance led to a peaceful and serene space.

There was no clash of swords or terrifying roars as I had imagined; only silence, a deathly silence.

"What's going on? Is this all?" Lin Yu couldn't help but complain. "I thought we were going to have a three-hundred-round battle, but this is it? Are you kidding me?"

Ada was also somewhat surprised, but she did not let her guard down and remained in combat readiness, her weapon gleaming coldly.

The two cautiously explored the space. It was empty all around, with nothing but the faintly glowing stone slabs under their feet, stretching into the distance and disappearing into the hazy mist.

"This place... feels a bit eerie." Lin Yu frowned. "Something just doesn't feel right."

After walking for a long time, the two arrived at the center of the space, where an ancient altar stood, covered with mysterious runes that emitted a faint glow.

"This... could this be the way home?" Lin Yu was overjoyed, but his smile quickly froze.

In the center of the altar lay a beating heart, its bright red blood still slowly flowing.

"Holy crap! What the hell!" Lin Yu exclaimed, "This thing looks so much like..."

Ida was also stunned; she had never seen such a bizarre sight.

Suddenly, the runes on the altar began to flash, emitting a dazzling light, and a powerful force enveloped the two of them.

An ancient and mysterious voice echoed through the space: "If you want to go home... you must pay a price..."

"Price? What price?" Lin Yu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he'd have to sacrifice his kidneys?

This damn system is so unwilling to suffer even the slightest loss!

The mysterious voice continued, "You need to sacrifice someone whose soul is bound to yours..."

Lin Yu instantly understood; this was clearly a death sentence for Ada!

Damn system, are you trying to make me a scumbag?!

Lin Yu's face was gloomy, and he was caught in a mental struggle.

Torn between the hope of returning home and the woman he loves, what choice does he have?

Is he really going to abandon Ada and run away back to his hometown alone?

That's just inhuman!

"No! Absolutely not!" Lin Yu shook his head violently; he couldn't do it!

Ada noticed Lin Yu's unusual behavior and asked with concern, "Lin Yu, what's wrong?"

Lin Yu took a deep breath and forced a smile, saying, "It's nothing, I'm just a little excited. I'll be home soon!"

Ida laughed along, but there was a hint of unease in her smile.

"System, is there any other way? Like sacrificing an old dog or something?" Lin Yu complained inwardly.

The system's cold voice replied: "No."

Lin Yu almost spat out a mouthful of blood. This damn system is truly heartless!

Just when Lin Yu was in despair, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and came up with a brilliant idea!

"System, I'm asking you, what does soul binding mean?"

“Soul binding means that the soul’s aura is completely in harmony and life is connected together.”

"What if I sacrifice something that perfectly matches my soul's aura?" Lin Yu's lips curled into a sly smile.

The system remained silent for a moment, seemingly calculating something.

Lin Yu seized the opportunity and quickly pulled a strand of hair from his pocket—it was a strand of Ada's hair that he had secretly cut off earlier.

"System, see if this will work?" Lin Yu placed his hair on the altar.

The runes on the altar flickered again, their light even more dazzling, and the beating heart stopped beating.

"Soul aura compatibility detected at 99.99%, meeting the conditions for sacrifice." The system's voice finally sounded again.

"YES!" Lin Yu couldn't help but clench his fist and cheer. Luckily, he was quick-witted, otherwise he would have really become a scumbag!

A brightly lit passage appeared before the two of them, the light symbolizing hope and victory; the road home had finally opened!

Lin Yu turned to look at Ada, his eyes filled with tenderness: "Let's go home!"

Ada paused for a moment, then broke into a bright smile: "Okay!"

The two walked towards the passage, but just as they were about to step inside, Lin Yu suddenly stopped...

Lin Yu stopped, turned around and hugged Ada tightly, whispering affectionately in her ear, "Wait for me, I will definitely come back for you!"

Ada's eyes instantly reddened, and tears blurred her vision.

She tiptoed and kissed Lin Yu's lips.

It was a deep and tender kiss, filled with love, reluctance to part, and blessings.

Lin Yu held Ada tightly, feeling her soft lips and warm body temperature, his heart filled with emotion and tenderness.

He knew that his relationship with Ida had reached its most romantic peak at this moment.

"Smack!" A loud kiss echoed in the silent space, as if it were an eternal vow.

Lin Yu took a deep breath and resolutely stepped into the passage home.

With a flash of light, Lin Yu disappeared from Ada's sight.

Ada stood there blankly, tears streaming silently down her face, praying silently for Lin Yu's safe return.

Lin Yu moved through the passage as if he were traveling through a time tunnel.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself back in his familiar room.

The familiar bed, the familiar furnishings—everything felt so real.

"I...I'm really back!" Lin Yu jumped off the bed excitedly, but because of his crippled legs, he fell flat on his face.

"Oh my god! This crippled leg, and it's even disabled!" Lin Yu couldn't help but complain, but his heart was filled with joy.

He finally returned to his original world, back to everything he knew.

In the post-apocalyptic wasteland, he became a legend, and his name will be forever remembered by the wasteland survivors.

He rose from a disabled, unemployed youth to become the savior of the post-apocalyptic wasteland, and his story will become the most popular legend in the wasteland.

His departure brought a perfect end to the entire post-apocalyptic wasteland experience.

Now, he has returned to his original world, a world full of unknowns for him.

He was unaware of the changes that had occurred in the world, nor what challenges he would face in the future.

He was filled with anticipation, yet also with some worry.

He took a deep breath and pushed open the door...

"Dad! Mom! I'm home!"
