Godslayer: You get two at the start, Supreme Divine Ruins.

Lin Qiye genuinely considered Lin Xiao a friend. Over the years, Lin Xiao and Lin Wan'er had taken good care of him, sometimes even going to and from school together. He looked at Lin Xiao with a puzzled expression and asked, "How did you know I was coming?"

Lin Xiao's expression turned serious. He didn't answer the question, but said, "I'm different from you. You want to protect your family, and so do I. But if the Great Xia Dynasty is gone, can you protect it all by yourself? You should understand the principle of 'if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold,' right?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qiye was taken aback and then fell into deep thought, pondering Lin Xiao's words.

At this moment, Zhao Kongcheng stared intently at Lin Xiao and asked curiously, "You are also a user of Forbidden Ruins? But I can't tell what your Forbidden Ruins are?"

Lin Xiao gently shook his head and frankly told the reporter: "I am not the owner of the forbidden ruins, but like Lin Qiye, I possess divine ruins, and not just one, but two."

He knew in his heart that there was no need to hide these things, after all, he had already decided to join the Night's Watch.

If he were alone, joining the Night's Watch might not have been necessary, but in this world, he had a sister who was adopted by his parents and had depended on him since childhood.

Only by joining the Night's Watch can he better protect her.

Zhao Kongcheng's eyes widened in disbelief as he asked, "Are you a representative of the gods? Or are you representing two gods at the same time?"

Just as everyone was talking, a series of hurried footsteps approached. Hongying, dressed in a tracksuit and carrying a long gun, rushed to the scene with an anxious expression.

At the same time, the system's cold and mechanical voice rang in Lin Xiao's mind.

[Side Quest Issued: Please make Hongying develop a 1% favorability towards the host. Upon completion, you will receive two Forbidden Ruins Awakening Scrolls.]

As soon as Hongying arrived, her gaze quickly swept over everyone before finally settling on Zhao Kongcheng, who was covered in blood and lying on the ground.

"Old Zhao, how are you?" she asked with concern.

She rushed to Zhao Kongcheng's side and examined his injuries, her voice filled with worry: "Old Zhao, why are you being so stubborn? If it were an ordinary person, they would have died from your injuries long ago. Even if they didn't die, they would probably be in serious trouble later..."

Zhao Kongcheng's ribs were all broken, and even his spine was cracked, showing signs of fracture. Even if he survives, he may become disabled.

Zhao Kongcheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his breath weak: "This... isn't this still alive? I held out against the Ghost-Faced King for so long, and that's the Chuan Realm! If I had the Forbidden Ruins, I would have killed him a hundred times over."

Zhao Kongcheng coughed up another mouthful of blood, then looked at Lin Xiao: "Let's not talk about this for now, kid, thank you."

Hongying also turned her gaze to Lin Xiao, her eyes filled with curiosity: "Are you also a user of the Forbidden Ruins?"

Lin Xiao hurriedly stepped forward and recounted the events in detail, from rescuing Zhao Kongcheng to the fierce battle with the Ghost Face King, and finally successfully eliminating the Ghost Face King. He described every detail in detail, but of course, he concealed the existence of the God-Slaying Spear fragments.

After saying that, he looked at the injured Zhao Kongcheng and had an idea. He said, "Sister Hongying, I know some healing techniques. Maybe I can help Brother Zhao alleviate his injuries and perhaps even allow him to continue fighting in the future."

"With the alternation of Yin and Yang, life returns!"

As he finished speaking, Lin Xiao moved his hands, unleashing a move from the Tai Chi Remnant Seal.

Centered on him, a soft emerald green light slowly rippled outwards, forming a circular healing field.

Streams of scarlet light slowly emanated from his hands, transformed into pure life force by the healing domain, and wrapped around Zhao Kongcheng's body like silk threads.

Under the light, Zhao Kongcheng's originally pale face gradually regained its color, and his breathing became much more stable.

Hongying watched from the side, her eyes flashing with surprise. Lin Xiao not only saved Zhao Kongcheng and defeated the Ghost Face King, but also healed Zhao Kongcheng's injuries, which made her goodwill towards Lin Xiao rise rapidly.

In Lin Xiao's mind, the system notification sounded at the right time.

[Congratulations, host! Hongying's favorability towards you has increased to 15%. You have obtained two Forbidden Ruins Awakening Scrolls.]

[Host, you have unlocked a follow-up side quest. Hongying's favorability towards you has reached 50%. You will receive a reward upon completion of the quest.]

Feeling his injuries rapidly healing, Zhao Kongcheng said to Lin Xiao with gratitude, "Lin Xiao, it's all thanks to you. My injuries have eased a lot in an instant, and I can continue to serve as a night watchman."

A bright smile also appeared on Hongying's face. She expressed her gratitude to Lin Xiao: "Lin Xiao, you are amazing. On behalf of Team 136, I thank you for saving Lao Zhao."

Then, Zhao Kongcheng said to Lin Xiao and Lin Qiye in a solemn tone: "Lin Xiao and Lin Qiye, you both possess extraordinary power, and you must know that this world is not as simple as it seems."

We, the Night's Watch, desperately need talents like you. Would you be willing to join us and protect Great Xia together?

Hongying chimed in, "Yes, by joining the Night's Watch, you can better utilize your abilities and protect more people. Plus, it's so lively being together, just like a family."

Her smile was exceptionally warm, radiating the approachable charm of a big sister next door.

Lin Xiao had already had this idea in his mind, and now that he heard Zhao Kongcheng and Hongying say this, it was the perfect time to join and even get extra resources.

"Of course I'm willing, but I have one condition: I hope my family member, Lin Wan'er, can also join the Night Watch. Apart from special squads, I can freely choose any squad, and she must be with me."

Hongying looked puzzled upon hearing this.

"Did she also awaken the Forbidden Ruins?"

Although ordinary people can join the Night Watch, they must each have unique strengths. Like Old Zhao, although he's just an ordinary person, he's an outstanding soldier, a king among kings.

Zhao Kongcheng also turned his questioning gaze to Lin Xiao, as he knew nothing about the owners of the newly appeared Forbidden Ruins and Divine Ruins.

Now that two have suddenly appeared, he, who is unable to awaken the Forbidden Ruins, is even more frustrated.

“Hongying, stop bringing me up. If I could awaken the Forbidden Ruins, it would be at an extremely high level.”

Lin Xiao smiled and took out a Forbidden Ruins Awakening Scroll from his pocket, handing it to Zhao Kongcheng.

"You'll know whether she has any forbidden artifacts once you use this."

Zhao Kongcheng took the scroll and saw that it was covered with strange runes, exuding an aura of mystery.

How do I use this?

Hongying also cast a curious glance, clearly not understanding what was so magical about a scroll.

Lin Xiao pointed to Zhao Kongcheng's chest and patiently explained, "Just stick the scroll to your chest and silently say 'use'."

This was not an impulsive act on his part. Zhao Kongcheng, as an iconic character in "Slaying Gods," was unfortunately unable to awaken the Forbidden Ruins. Now that he had two awakening scrolls, he naturally wanted to help Zhao Kongcheng fulfill his wish.

Zhao Kongcheng, half-believing and half-doubting, pressed the scroll to his chest and whispered, "Use."
