Godslayer: I am the agent of King of Glory heroes
Chapter 357 A New Door
"Forget it, if it's not something nice, you don't have to say it. I'm not really interested in knowing."
Just as Jiang Shiyuan was about to speak, Jialan took a deep breath, turned her head away, and politely declined, saying, "It's enough that we can stand here together before we part."
She wasn't stupid; on the contrary, as a maidservant of the Queen Mother of the West, she was definitely intelligent. Jiang Shiyuan's teasing eyes were practically overflowing, but she wasn't going to fall for it.
"What do you mean it's not nice? You flirted with me, and I haven't even said anything to you yet." Jiang Shiyuan was rebellious by nature. If Jialan hadn't said that, it would have been fine, but since she had, she had to defend herself. "If you weren't a fairy, but a fairy man, I would have turned around and left immediately."
“…?” Jialan stared wide-eyed in confusion. After a moment of reaction, she suddenly understood.
In a daze, a new door slowly opened before her eyes.
The door was completely new to her, and Jialan nervously twisted her sleeves, her cheeks flushing red. "Should I thank myself for being a fairy? My purpose in coming here today is very simple: I just want to see you and talk to you!"
"Look at you, here you go again. Making friends doesn't have to be like this..." Jiang Shiyuan silently stared at Jialan's flushed face. "Besides, if it's a misunderstanding, why are you blushing?"
"I just..." Garan was so ashamed and angry that he couldn't speak for a moment, and could only try to kill with his eyes.
"You wouldn't actually have fallen for me, would you? That shouldn't be the case..."
Jialan didn't seem angry at all. Her shy and timid expression, with her wide-eyed stare, completely deviated from the composed demeanor of a maidservant of the Queen Mother of the West. She looked like a little girl, with the exasperation of someone who had their secret exposed.
Jiang Shiyuan stared, completely dumbfounded.
and many more!
Suddenly, she shuddered, her mind racing, and a wild idea popped into her head.
There's a reason why Jialan likes Lin Qiye!
First, Lin Qiye returned to the Han Dynasty because of the Holy Covenant, and then encountered Jialan, who had descended to the mortal world with the Immortal Pill and was being chased by monsters.
When Jialan was on the verge of death, she asked Lin Qiye to help send the Immortal Pill back to Kunlun. However, as soon as she handed over the pill, Lin Qiye fed it to her, which led to the thousand-year wait in the coffin. This is the cause.
There is a cause and an effect, and cause and effect are interconnected. She had long felt that something was wrong because Jialan had not appeared for so long.
When Lin Qiye fought the Ant Queen in Fengdu, she returned empty-handed. Jialan was nowhere to be seen. After the battle, she wondered if something had gone wrong and tried to search for it in Fengdu. However, the Emperor of Fengdu said that the coffin she was looking for was not found there.
It is important to know that all signs indicate that the world has the ability to self-correct.
This is Lin Qiye's dream, and it should follow the plot. The corrections are to be expected, so even if she changed some things, what was going to happen will still happen.
Jialan is the female protagonist and a key character in this novel, while this world is Lin Qiye's dream, and all the changes follow his will.
So...it's because of Lin Qiye?
However, there must be some connection between her and this.
Damn! Could it be that in that future time travel, she traveled back with Lin Qiye and accidentally stole Lin Qiye's role?
Then, just like the male protagonist in those melodramatic novels who falls in love with a keepsake, Garan also fell in love with her?
Jiang Shiyuan had been poisoned by melodramatic novels quite a bit. In those novels, the male protagonist and the female protagonist always had a token. The villainous female supporting character took the token, and the male protagonist treated the villainous female supporting character as his white moonlight. As a result, he abused the female protagonist physically and emotionally, and only after tearing out her heart did he realize that the token belonged to the female protagonist. From then on, he had an epiphany and fell in love with the female protagonist again.
She always felt that it was a love story between the male protagonist and the token, and the female protagonist was just the vessel for the token.
However, considering that Jialan appears mature and composed but is actually naive and clueless about relationships, she felt that it might not be impossible.
When a hero saves a damsel in distress, who can escape it?
It's perfectly reasonable that she would fall in love with whoever saved her, even if that person was a woman.
Hmm...that makes sense.
Jiang Shiyuan thought about all this, but it didn't take much time. When Jialan came to her senses from her embarrassment and annoyance, the first thing she saw was that indescribable look in his eyes.
"Jiang Shiyuan!" she snapped angrily.
"Here!" Jiang Shiyuan was deep in thought when this voice almost scared her out of her wits.
Jialan always called her Miss Jiang in a gentle and sweet voice, so why was he calling her by her full name this time? It felt a bit strange.
"..." Jialan was so angry at the person's reaction that she almost laughed. She pointed at herself and asked incredulously, "You just said that I like you?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shiyuan pointed to herself and tentatively asked, "You...don't like me?"
"I don't dislike you, and I do like you quite a bit, but not in the way you're thinking of it," Garan replied, looking exasperated.
She had to admit that she rarely met such an interesting person, and the way this person looked at her was particularly different. Even though she didn't know him, he seemed to understand her very well, and it was hard for her not to take him seriously.
She had a strong curiosity about Jiang Shiyuan; otherwise, she wouldn't have specifically asked the Empress for a favor before parting and come to find her alone.
Unexpectedly, her attempt to befriend him caused a misunderstanding with Jiang Shiyuan.
"We've only known each other for a day, how could we possibly have those kinds of feelings? I just feel a strong connection with you."
"So, I've been overthinking things?" Jiang Shiyuan asked suspiciously. "You came to see me simply because we clicked?"
Given Jialan's unique identity, even if it wasn't for such a far-fetched reason as liking her, it shouldn't be that simple.
It's important to understand that Jialan isn't an illusion attached to the Kunlun Mirror; she is the spirit of the pearl in the hands of the Queen Mother of the West, a real being with thousands of years of memories. If she were to find someone she could connect with, she should be looking for Lin Qiye.
"It is indeed that simple, but it's not that simple." Having learned her lesson, Jialan stopped pretending and decided to get straight to the point. "Let's not talk about that anymore. The most important thing I'm here for today is to ask you, Jiang Shiyuan, do we know each other?"
"Should we...know each other?" Jiang Shiyuan's body stiffened.
"You're so annoying! I've been completely honest with you, but you're still hiding things from me. The way you look at me is clearly off!"
Garan broke down, clenching his fists angrily, and unleashed his ultimate weapon, "If you keep doing this, I'll beat you until you talk."
Jiang Shiyuan chuckled dryly at the threat, "Hahaha... the way you put it, it's quite in line with your persona."
The previous Jialan was too composed. It's not that it's bad, but in her imagination, Jialan should be more lively.
"Persona? Is it the image I project in your mind?" Jialan withdrew his fist, seemingly lost in thought. "You seem to really understand me. What am I like in your eyes?"
"Maybe she's a naive and innocent girl or something..." Jiang Shiyuan said, silently backing away, wary of Jialan suddenly attacking and knocking her unconscious.
As expected, Jialan clenched his fist again, but to Jiang Shi's surprise, Jialan did not throw a punch. Instead, he spoke quietly, "Are you cursing me?"
Jiang Shiyuan: "..."
Oh, you didn't understand?!
