Slayer of Gods: I lied; I became the agent of the Nine Gods.

As dawn broke, the pyramids of Egypt collapsed under the twin suns.

As dawn broke, the gods vanished amidst the countless, unbreakable golden threads.

As the fingers that had been tapping down lifted, the girl grasped the world, and together they turned back around.

As the fog cleared, behind her lay millions of surviving people.

Beside her stood the young man on the verge of becoming a god, and her teammates rushing towards her.

"Deer!"

"Lu Yu!!!"

Lu Yu's fingertips trembled slightly, but she did not stop what she was doing. A familiar longsword appeared in her hand. It was the same sword she had used to save Zhao Kongcheng when she first arrived in Cangnan.

As the blade was drawn from its sheath, it burst forth with unparalleled five-colored hues.

Behind Lu Yu, a colossal statue stood between heaven and earth.

But this time it wasn't the compassionate face of a mother goddess, but rather that familiar, long, white hair, like a goddess descended to earth, a young girl with her eyes tightly closed, a tear streak beneath them...

At this moment, Lu Yu finally understood the path that truly belonged to him...

That is the way of all living beings under heaven.

All living beings suffer, so she will save them.

The gods could not forgive her, so she killed them.

There must be a way to restore peace and tranquility to the world.

[Hint: The Path to Godhood has been opened...]

Host's goal: the path of all living beings.

The system hereby extends its best wishes—

Of all the things in this world before, none can compare to you from now on.

[System upgrade in progress —]

System upgrade progress...70%...

[System upgrade progress...90%...]

[System upgrade successful! Now beginning the deification process...]

The knife in Lu Yu's hand finally fell, hanging to the ground.

A slight buzzing sound rang out, followed by invisible ripples.

Countless people who were wounded or died in the war were awakened at this moment, looking up in a daze as they returned to the world.

The ripples swept across the region, extending beyond the city, seemingly about to spread throughout the entire Great Xia Dynasty...

The next moment, everyone heard the girl let out a muffled groan, and then she drew her knife.

[Prompt... Host not in complete state detected, unable to achieve godhood...]

[Note: Please restore to full state...]

[Lu Yu, you should rest.]

A soft sigh echoed in my mind.

Is that still not enough...?

The girl subconsciously touched her eyelids and lowered her head.

Although Lin Qiye and the others were not quite sure what had happened to Lu Yu just now, they clearly realized that the girl's aura had suddenly calmed down.

"Lu Yu... are you alright?"

The boy stepped forward, wanting to reach out and support her, but then stopped in his tracks.

"It's alright..."

"I'm back, Captain..."

Lu Yu straightened up, turned to face Lin Qiye and the others, tilted her head slightly, and smiled:

Aren't you going to welcome me?

Looking at Lu Yu's expression, Lin Qiye felt a pang of sadness. In the end, all his unspoken words were condensed into a silent embrace as he quickly stepped forward.

"Welcome back……"

Lu Yu felt herself being hugged by one person, then two, then three...

She was surrounded by warmth, a tight, airtight embrace, yet she felt utterly at ease.

"Um……"

Welcome home.

---------

Everything in Tianhe City returned to normal after Lu Yu's slash, as if the disaster had never happened. But those who truly experienced it know that some of them had died, but were pulled back to Baiye.

After the incident, Zhou Ping was taken back by Ye Fan, who had just learned from Yuan Gang that Lin Qiye and the others had run into the mist.

Before parting, Ye Fan bowed deeply to Lu Yu.

“This time, on behalf of the Night Watch headquarters, I sincerely thank you for your return… Lu Yu, thank you.”

It saved Zhou Ping, and it also saved me from feeling incredibly guilty.

Lu Yu didn't say anything, but just smiled and let the teacher who was about to leave pat her head.

…………

"Now... I must go too, child."

As Zhou Ping left, before Lin Qiye could even react to the surge of power within him, he saw Nyx fly out of his sea of ​​consciousness—

Under the cover of night, the goddess of night gently embraced the child who was not related to her by blood, like a mother giving her parting words.

Beside Lin Qiye, the white-haired girl was a little taken aback and subconsciously took a step back. The white silk covering her eyes fluttered behind her, making her appear thin and fragile.

"Thank you too, Little Deer."

Nix's voice reached Lu Yu's ears, and she was startled, never expecting him to speak to her.

"what?"

What are you thanking me for?

Nyx laughed: "You have shown me the miracle of humanity."

It's not just you...

Nyx could see Zhou Ping's resolute determination, and he could see the girl's reunion with the world...

"I would like to borrow something from your teacher."

Lu Yu understood.

It is Zhou Ping's sword, a sword capable of slaying gods.

Nyx, the goddess of night on Olympus, will finally return to her divine realm today to avenge her children.

Lu Yu pursed her lips.

Now that Zhou Ping has escaped his inevitable death under her divine ruins, Nyx wants a god-slaying sword... How can she give it to him?

"Deer!"

Suddenly, a voice reached her ears from afar.

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Lu Yu was momentarily stunned: "Nezha?"

Wasn't this guy in Sun City? Why is he back?

Nezha landed on the ground, glanced at the majestic Goddess of the Night, and only after confirming that she was the deity Lin Qiye was acting as his agent did he put down his Fire-Tipped Spear and come to Lu Yu's side.

A golden light shimmered in his hand, revealing a longsword interwoven with gold and red.

"This is the God-Slaying Sword, forged by the Twelve Ancestral Witches using their own flesh and blood. The Dao Ancestor asked me to tell the Goddess of Night a message."

Nezha raised his eyebrows and said in a clear voice, "We will repay those Western barbarian gods a hundredfold for what they have done in the Great Xia. I hope you will not stop us then."

Nyx looked at the menacing sword and sighed.

She knew that the people of Daxia were protective of their own people, but she never expected that the gods would protect every single one of them.

"it is good."

She didn't see anything wrong with it, even though she herself was one of the Western deities.

"The Dao Ancestor also said that this sword is enough for you to take revenge. After that, you can bring their relics to the Great Xia, and we will repay you for the karma."

Upon hearing this, the Goddess of Night's eyes lit up again. She knew what this meant, but she was somewhat incredulous.

"……Thank you."

Nyx gave Lin Qiye a final hug before leaving Daxia alone.

At that moment, Nezha suddenly appeared beside Lin Qiye. He stared at him for a long time before finally sighing.

"I don't know what the Dao Ancestor cares about, that he insisted I send this to you..."

Nezha revealed a seemingly ordinary stone in his palm and handed it to Lin Qiye:

"You can handle it yourself..."

Lin Qiye: "What kind of stone is this?"

Nezha shook his head: "I'm not quite sure, but I took this stone from Mount Yiling. The Dao Ancestor said that stones have spirits and told you to treat them well."

Does the stone possess a spirit?

Lin Qiye's first thought was of the Monkey King who was still in his mental hospital.

Thinking of this, the boy's heart skipped a beat.

No, no, right?

After Nezha finished speaking, he patted Lu Yu on the shoulder, calmly left with the words "Waiting for you in the prehistoric world," and then rode away on his Wind Fire Wheels.

Before Lin Qiye could react, holding the stone, he heard An Qingyu suddenly exclaim, "Qiye, look!"

Lin Qiye looked up—

Suddenly, the mist that had just dissipated along the coast reappeared.

A dark figure gradually emerged from the mist...

As the mist drew closer, the group saw that the dark figure was actually standing on a small boat, his face aged.

The old man had a long knife at his waist, and his white hair fluttered in the wind.

A system notification sounded in Lu Yu's mind:

[It is the King's Mask...and also the King's Mask in his old age.]

Just as Lin Qiye was about to ask who this person was, he saw the old man suddenly raise the knife at his waist and swing it towards Lu Yu's direction—

Before anyone could stop them, everyone instinctively stepped in front of the white-haired girl.

---------

Hahaha, don't let me live! Hahaha, it was taken down for three hours!!! Great! Excellent! I refuse to believe it!

I'm busy dealing with this today, so there's only one chapter left: Private Marseille.

It's being processed and is awaiting review... (It's been processed and restored now.)

But I still suggest joining the group first... I've already been scared by this...

If the book is really cancelled, everyone should join the fan group first. I'll post the extra chapters there...

I won't be writing fanfiction for a while; I need to lay low for a bit...
