Godslayer: I am the agent of King of Glory heroes

One by one, the immortals left the hall, until only a few remained.

Surprisingly, although the opportunity to receive peaches was only once, the Peach Banquet lasted for more than just one day. With the grace of the Queen Mother of the West, Jiang Shiyuan and Lin Qiye were able to stay temporarily in the Jade Pool Wonderland.

"Is there really such a good thing?" Jiang Shiyuan was squatting in front of the arranged vase, deep in thought, when she heard Lin Qiye's words and slapped her thigh. "Then of course we should stay here first."

Such an opportunity to get up close and personal with deities is extremely rare; only a fool would refuse it.

"Then I'll go and agree." Lin Qiye nodded.

Jiang Shiyuan watched Lin Qiye leave, then turned her attention back to the vase in front of her.

Inside the vase, the vigorous plum branches are adorned with red stamens, their fragrance light and pure. Especially in the hall filled with the domineering scent of peach blossoms, one needs to quiet their mind to capture that faint, cool, and sweet fragrance.

After hesitating for a moment, she reached out and grasped the plum branch, holding it in her hand, and went to find Lin Qiye, who was talking with the female immortal.

Lin Qiye was just about to go find Jiang Shiyuan to her room in the Yaochi Immortal Realm when he saw her coming. He smiled and introduced Yang Jian and Nezha, who were supposed to stay with him, to her.

Jiang Shiyuan had something on her mind, so she simply greeted the two of them and then looked at the smiling female fairy beside her. "Fairy, there is a plum blossom in the vase on Master's table. I am delighted to see it. I wonder if I can take it with me?"

"It's just a plum blossom for ornamental purposes, of course there's nothing wrong with that," the fairy smiled, indicating that she should do as she pleased.

After all, the fairy was quite busy and still had to take them to the guest rooms, so Lin Qiye didn't delay any longer. He, Jiang Shiyuan, Yang Jian, and Nezha followed the fairy and headed deeper into the Jade Pool Wonderland.

They soon arrived at their lodgings, and after settling the four of them in, the female fairy left.

"What do you need a plum blossom for? Is there anything special about this plum blossom?"

Seeing that Jiang Shiyuan was tightly holding the plum branch in her hand, Lin Qiye couldn't help but ask.

“After all, it’s from Yaochi, these plum blossoms look exceptionally different.” Jiang Shiyuan was speaking from the heart.

The plum blossom in her hand is a twin plum blossom. Although it is called a red plum, its color is lighter than that of ordinary red plums. Perhaps it grew in a fairyland and was nourished by spiritual energy. The beautiful petals even have a faint crystal-clear feeling, exuding a spiritual aura.

Of course, her reason for wanting this plum blossom was not just because it was pretty.

First of all, Jiang Ziya was skilled in divination. Since there was no yarrow stalk at the Peach Banquet, he casually took a plum branch from a vase to replace the yarrow stalk. But why was there exactly one more red plum branch in the vase than he needed for divination?

Furthermore, during their conversation, Jiang Ziya also told Jiang Shiyuan why she couldn't touch the peaches of immortality.

The scene before them was merely a silhouette of one of the Peach Banquets in the Jade Pool Wonderland, captured by the Kunlun Mirror. Therefore, although the immortals present all possessed their own ways of thinking, they were not, in essence, in the same space-time.

Then how did she come across this plum blossom?

Second.

"I still remember..."

In Jiang Shiyuan's memory, she still remembers that when she collected all of Wang Zhaojun's skins, Wang Zhaojun suddenly appeared and said something inexplicable.

The winter plum blossoms left behind in this world...

This was an excuse she made in front of Yuan Gang to legitimize her status as a representative of the gods. She took the benefits, and in the end, the lie became true. When the real person came to her door, she had nothing to say, so she kept it in mind.

However, she had no clue about this so-called winter plum blossom, and so it had been delayed until now...

"Remember what?" The question left Lin Qiye completely bewildered.

"..." Jiang Shiyuan snapped out of her thoughts and shook her head. "It's nothing."

Having spent so much time with her, Lin Qiye was still able to maintain a proper distance and didn't press her for details. He simply teased her, "Fate is fickle; now you've become a riddle person too."

"Question the riddle-maker, understand the riddle-maker, become the riddle-maker." Jiang Shiyuan replied with a smile. After saying that, she thought for a moment and still revealed a little to Lin Qiye, "I don't know the specifics, but in short, this plum blossom may be related to the deal between me and the gods."

"I remember you once said that the deity you represented asked you to find her lost plum blossoms?" Lin Qiye recalled.

"Yes, I had no clue before, but now it seems like I have a little bit, and then again, it seems like I don't." Life is tough, Jiang Shiyuan sighed.

Searching for things from the world of Kings in the world of Godslayer sounds a bit far-fetched, but who can blame her when Wang Zhaojun is her destined hero? Blindly favoring her, she felt that Wang Zhaojun wouldn't give her an unsolvable problem.

What Wang Zhaojun wanted was the plum blossom given to her by her sister. In the storyline created by Xiao Wang, the plum blossom was a twin plum blossom, which was given to Wang Zhaojun by her sister before her marriage. After the twin plum blossom was found, it seems that Wang Zhaojun left it at the Jixia Academy.

Speaking of Jixia Academy...

The Jixia Academy was founded by Confucius. Before founding Jixia, Confucius and Jiang Ziya were close partners and fellow travelers on the path of seeking divine guidance. However, they later had ideological differences and parted ways.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shiyuan forgot about Lin Qiye, who was eagerly waiting for her to continue the story, and fell into deep thought.

Well, it's terrifying to think about.

She only got this plum blossom today because of Jiang Ziya. It was already a bit strange that Jiang Ziya accepted her as his disciple right at the entrance. If Jiang Ziya hadn't accepted her, she wouldn't have been able to enter the Peach Banquet and definitely wouldn't have gotten the plum blossom.

Furthermore, if Jiang Ziya sensed a connection between himself and her through the interaction between heaven and man, but did not have her serve him, then similarly, she would not have been able to obtain the plum blossom.

and so……

Lin Qiye, completely ignored: "...?"

He touched his face to make sure he was still present, and then he felt a little relieved. He had planned to wait for Jiang Shiyuan to finish thinking before making a joke, but unexpectedly, a pleasant surprise came.

A peach.

These are genuine peaches bestowed upon them by the Queen Mother of the West as an extraordinary gift.

Even though Andrei was chased like a dead dog and didn't provoke the gods of the Great Xia Dynasty as in the original story, Lin Qiye still received a peach as a reward.

If Jiang Shiyuan still had her memories, she would probably exclaim, "Is this what they call the protagonist's halo?!"

Touching the real peach, Lin Qiye suddenly realized that the immortals in the Jade Pool Wonderland were not all silhouettes of the Kunlun Mirror; at least the Queen Mother of the West and her maids were not.

Yang Jian and Nezha volunteered to stay in Yaochi Wonderland for Lin Qiye's sake, accompanying him until the time silhouette left by the Kunlun Mirror ended.

While Lin Qiye and Jiang Shiyuan were talking, the two considerately gave them space and returned to their respective rooms first. At this moment, the Queen Mother of the West's maidservant came to bestow peaches, which immediately startled them.

Upon opening the door, Yang Jian saw the peach in Lin Qiye's hand, and a smile flashed across his face.

The Peach Garden is located in the Jade Pool Wonderland and is under the jurisdiction of the Queen Mother of the West, so it's normal for it to have a few in stock.

However, Lin Qiye was just a mortal and had never come into contact with such a good thing before. He seemed a bit dazed and didn't seem to be planning to eat it, so he had to remind him, "This is a peach that was just taken out of the seal. It will be most effective if you eat it now."

Lin Qiye's eyes were full of surprise. Hearing Yang Jian's reminder, he was stunned and subconsciously looked at Jiang Shiyuan.

Jiang Shiyuan observed the unremarkable peach in Lin Qiye's hand and noticed the subtle look in Lin Qiye's eyes; she had a premonition.

“Shi Yuan…”

Sure enough, the first thing Lin Qiye did was call her name.

Jiang Shiyuan was startled, her eyes widened, and she quickly interrupted Lin Qiye before he could finish speaking.

"Don't come over here!"
