Godslayer: I am the agent of King of Glory heroes

A thin layer of snow floated on the cold, hard ground as Jiang Shiyuan and Lin Qiye walked side by side on the pristine white road.

The war had ended, and the dark clouds that had obscured the clear sky had dispersed, allowing the sun to shine directly down. The two men's heavy footsteps left a trail of winding footprints in the snow, which were clearly visible in the sunlight.

Having just gone through a fierce battle, even though physical health can be treated, mental exhaustion cannot be eliminated. Both of them are very tired, but they have a lot to talk about, so they chat intermittently while panting as they travel.

"By the way, it's fine if you don't talk about the details of the battle, but there's something you need to explain clearly. Is your so-called opportunity legitimate?" Jiang Shiyuan, with her long hair disheveled by the wind, wiped her dirty face and turned to look at Lin Qiye.

"It might be serious, or it might be not, it depends on your performance," Lin Qiye replied ambiguously.

"How am I supposed to know what kind of performance you want? You're not saying anything," Jiang Shiyuan said resentfully.

Along the way, she tried to find out how Lin Qiye used the resurrection armor, but Lin Qiye learned his lesson and refused to say, which made her furious but unable to find a way to get him to talk.

"I've always been the one trying to guess what you're thinking, now it's your turn to guess what I'm thinking. Isn't that fair?"

"Performance... Is one kiss enough for me?"

"Good idea, but this little bit of apology isn't even enough to fill a tooth gap."

"Two bites?"

"Perfunctory work is prohibited."

"Then I'll apologize to you and write you a letter of apology?"

"Ha, I'd rather just give you a kiss."

"Sigh, nothing works, nothing works. A man's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea." Jiang Shiyuan kept hitting walls and continued to wipe her face in frustration.

Lost in thought, she wiped her face carelessly, unaware that with that rubbing, the tears on her face were mixed with blood and dust, making her look even more pitiful.

Finally, Lin Qiye couldn't stand her wiping method, which was like a kitten washing its face, so he grabbed her and rubbed her thoroughly before she was finally a little cleaner.

After wiping her face, Lin Qiye pinched Jiang Shiyuan's rather soft cheek and suddenly asked, "Can I kiss you?"

"Huh?" Jiang Shiyuan was dumbfounded. What was going on now?

"May I kiss you?" Lin Qiye repeated, and then added, "Let me make it clear beforehand that this question has nothing to do with punishment, reward, or compensation. I just think you're cute and simply want to kiss you. Is that okay?"

Jiang Shiyuan blushed slightly and said shyly, "Then I just want to know the details of today's battle..."

"Never mind." Lin Qiye knew she would pull this stunt, so he sighed, turned around and left. "Suddenly, I don't think about it that way anymore."

"Hey! Qi Ye, we can talk about this." Jiang Shiyuan was stunned and chased after him eagerly.

"My purpose is simple, but it seems your purpose is not so simple, so forget it." Lin Qiye used his mental power to locate Cao Yuan's position.

"You're talking nonsense! My purpose is even simpler than yours." Jiang Shiyuan was angry that Lin Qiye refused to tell her, and in a moment of anger, she punched Lin Qiye, almost knocking him to the ground.

Lin Qiye: "..." He laughed speechlessly.

He turned back to look at the person who looked remorseful, clearly aware that they had done something wrong, and pinched that rather pleasant-smelling cheek with a sense of satisfaction before speaking seriously:

“I know what you want to hear. It's not hurtful to me, but if I really tell you, it will become a scar for you, so I don't want to say it.”

It's all in the past. At least I'm still standing in front of you now, and that's enough, isn't it?

He and Jiang Shiyuan were teammates and lovers.

She saved him many times, she's done more than enough. It's just that he's not strong enough. Besides, what's done is done. Even if she knew what happened, what could she do?

It serves no purpose other than to increase suffering.

"But……"

Jiang Shiyuan really wanted to say that if she died one day, wouldn't he want to know why? That's such a double standard...

Lin Qiye did not interrupt, and waited quietly for her to continue.

"..."

Jiang Shiyuan opened her mouth, but when she saw the undisguised exhaustion beneath Lin Qiye's calm face, she couldn't utter a word.

Finally, she said:

"Sorry, I understand. Let's go find Cao Yuan quickly."

She knew that she was not only rubbing salt into Lin Qiye's wounds, but also engaging in self-torture. She was just unwilling to accept that she had made an effort, but the result was not good.

Perhaps Lin Qiye was right; she was just too persistent.

……

During the rest of the journey, the two suddenly fell silent, focusing on their journey.

Cao Yuan's situation is dire.

When the two arrived, Black King was being chained by three chains, roaring to the sky. Around him stood Ye Fan, Zuo Qing, and others, controlling Black King's movement and preventing him from leaving.

"Hmm? Those chains..."

Lin Qiye noticed something was wrong at first glance, and frowned. "There were originally seven, weren't there?"

"Hmm, there are only three left now." Jiang Shiyuan's gaze was somewhat complicated.

She sighed inwardly. In the darkness of night, Cao Yuan must have suffered the most.

The so-called "Black King Annihilation" is actually just a means for some mortals with special destinies to use their physical bodies as a cage to trap the Black King.

When talking about the Black King, one cannot help but mention that he skipped the 'God' realm and attempted to become a Supreme God in his mortal form. Unfortunately, he failed in his attempt and lost his mind, becoming a monster who only knew how to kill. It was the Primordial Celestial Venerable who intervened and used the 'Life Prison Trapping Demon' technique to seal him in the body of a mortal with a special destiny.

Cao Yuan was one of those unlucky souls with a particularly unique fate.

The Black King—no, to be precise, the Black King's real name should be Gongyang Zhuo.

He was Gongyang Wan's younger brother. He died trying to save Gongyang Wan, but was later resurrected with the help of Lin Qiye.

Gongyang Zhuo's body was created by Lin Qiye using the heart of Kusun, who is a Cthulhu being. This is why he, as a mortal, was able to challenge the supreme god, and also why he later lost his mind.

The cause and effect cycle is intricate and interconnected, leaving Jiang Shiyuan unsure how to intervene.

An Qingyu sensed in the Japanese 'human circle' that Cao Yuan's death would release the Black King, and that he would not truly die. Therefore, she killed him before the battle began, releasing the Black King to resist the Nine Pillar Gods.

The Black King did not disappoint him, and his fighting power was indeed amazing. However, during the battle with Geb, the god of the earth, four of the seven destiny chains on the Black King's body broke.

Everything has its advantages and disadvantages. The Black King blocked Gaibu and solved the immediate crisis, but how to clean up the mess after the event is also a problem. Four of the seven destiny locks are broken, and the remaining three are also in danger. If he is not careful, the Black King may break through the 'prison' and destroy Cao Yuan's consciousness.

"The Queen Mother of the West has arrived."

Lin Qiye keenly sensed something amiss in Jiang Shiyuan's tone, but he didn't say anything, instead gesturing for her to look at the sky.

……

With the help of the Queen Mother of the West to suppress it, the Black King was quickly forced to calm down. However, the raging evil flames still needed some special items to extinguish them.

Jiang Shiyuan and Lin Qiye were relatively far away, and they only saw Xi Wangmu, Ye Fan, and Zuo Qing talking about something before they took the unconscious Cao Yuan away.

Lin Qiye immediately panicked, "Queen Mother, please wait!"

Seeing the two rushing over, Ye Fan smiled reassuringly, "Don't worry, you've seen Cao Yuan's condition. The Queen Mother just wants to take him back to Heaven for treatment."

Lin Qiye was taken aback and looked at Cao Yuan, who was covered in black flames, and asked, "Cao Yuan... what exactly happened to him?"

He knew, of course, that the Queen Mother of the West wouldn't do anything to Cao Yuan. After learning that the Queen Mother of the West had taken Cao Yuan away only for treatment, he had no reason to stop her. However, he was still a little worried about letting Cao Yuan remain unconscious and be taken to the Heavenly Court alone.

"Since you're so worried, then come with me." The Queen Mother of the West smiled slightly as she led Cao Yuan, who was bound by a rope of unknown material.

"Going together... to the Heavenly Court?" Lin Qiye asked.

The Queen Mother of the West nodded slightly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lin Qiye could not possibly leave Cao Yuan unattended. He immediately agreed, thanked the Queen Mother of the West, and then looked at Jiang Shiyuan.

"Go ahead, I need to go back and check on them." Jiang Shiyuan shook her head, thinking of Baili Pangpang.

Although An Qingyu's suturing skills are good, they are not as good as her healing skills. Anyway, they will only be separated for a period of time. After sending the new recruits back to the capital, they may be taken to the Heavenly Court for a day trip. There is no rush.

"Then be careful." Lin Qiye didn't want to delay Cao Yuan's rescue, so he touched Jiang Shiyuan's face and hurriedly said goodbye.

Watching the three leave, Jiang Shiyuan turned back to Ye Fan and Zuo Qing, and greeted them wearily, "Commander Ye, Director Zuo..."

Looking at that slightly immature and youthful face, Ye Fan felt a pang of sadness.

The National Guardian Stele cannot be lost. The eight Nine Pillar Gods joining forces to destroy the National Guardian Stele—he knew how difficult this battle would be without even watching.

It was these children who, by risking their lives, managed to buy precious time.

"This time, thanks to you all, you held them off for so long, it must have been... very difficult."

"Let's go back to the capital."

……

A few hours later, we went to Beijing.

"Fatty, tell me, how are Qi Ye and Cao Yuan doing in Heaven now..." Jiang Shiyuan stood outside the airport, watching the new recruits get off the plane.

Standing next to her, Baili Pangpang felt a little awkward when he heard her question. "How would I know? I'm not familiar with things in the Heavenly Court."

Jiang Shiyuan's lips twitched at Baili Pangpang's blatant attempt to cover up his misunderstanding. She narrowed her eyes, scanning Baili Pangpang up and down, and said suspiciously, "What Heavenly Court? I'm asking about Cao Yuan and Qi Ye."

"Well, I don't know either. You were the last one to see them..." Baili Pangpang stammered, sweating profusely.

“That’s true…” Jiang Shiyuan nodded and turned her face away.

Baili Pangpang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had really had a tough time. In the border battle, because his cultivation level was not high enough, he was unable to deal with the Sky God Nut alone. Helpless, he could only take out the jade ruyi from his stomach.

After the battle, fearing his disguise would be exposed, he ran away immediately. However, when he took the jade ruyi, he was left with a scar the size of a bowl on his stomach that could not heal in a short time. Helpless, he went to find An Qingyu.

The wound on his stomach appeared out of nowhere. An Qingyu noticed something was wrong as soon as she saw him. Fortunately, An Qingyu was so intelligent that she stitched it up for him without asking any questions.

Just as the scabbard the size of a bowl was being treated, and before she could even step off An Qingyu's makeshift operating table, Jiang Shiyuan happened to arrive just in time.

He was speechless and helpless, so he could only accept Jiang Shiyuan's enthusiastic treatment with tears in his eyes, but he still couldn't come up with a reason for his injury.

We were fighting together, but it's all been made to look like an underground organization, something shameful and unsavory. There's so much to say about it!

Jiang Shiyuan looked down at her phone for a while, and after turning off the screen, she saw Baili Pangpang's face change from yin to yang before returning to calm. So she spoke up again, "By the way, Pangpang, there's something I have to ask you."

"What's wrong?" Baili Pangpang's muscles couldn't help but tense up again.

"Have you been in contact with Molly lately?" Jiang Shiyuan raised her black-screen phone. "She asked me before why you haven't been replying to her messages lately."

When Baili Pangpang heard this name, his heart skipped a beat.

Molly...

He lowered his head, suddenly wondering which was harder to answer: Jiang Shiyuan's question or the question about where he was when he fought the Nine Pillar Gods.

During the training camp, if he and Lin Qiye hadn't been roommates, and Molly hadn't been roommates with Jiang Shiyuan, he and Molly definitely wouldn't have had so much time together. He couldn't brush off this question.

Molly, did you ask him?

Baili Pangpang had a sweet yet bitter smile on his lips, which showed that he still held a high position in Molly's heart.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Jiang Shiyuan frowned. "You've grown wings and you don't even dare to reply to Molly's messages anymore?"

"I didn't mean I wouldn't reply, I just..." dared not reply.

Baili Pangpang's eyes reddened, but he didn't say the last three words.

That time in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, it was Jiang Shiyuan who woke him up, which is why he chose to keep the appointment. But this time, he understands that no matter what, Jiang Shiyuan can't wake him up.

What stood between him and Molly was a huge chasm that neither Baili Pangpang nor Lingbao Tianzun could cross.

“You should treat Molly well and keep her in your heart. You said it yourself,” Jiang Shiyuan reminded her.

Molly is such a wonderful girl; she deserves the best, whether she's in a relationship or not.

She knew that Baili Pangpang was very confused because of Lingbao's identity. It wasn't that he didn't like Molly; on the contrary, he liked her too much, which was why he was in such a dilemma.

Actually, she hesitated for a long time between breaking up the couple and bringing them together, but it was Molly's feelings after all, and even as a friend, she couldn't make the decision for her.

In the end, she chose to let it go.

"In principle, I shouldn't be meddling in this kind of thing."

But even gods have selfish desires, let alone me?

Because of our friendship, I did say a few good things about you. Because of Lin Qiye, the few of us often acted together, so you had more time to spend with Molly.

So, whether I intervene or not, I've already helped you. If you betray Molly, then I'll be held responsible...

Jiang Shiyuan frowned and muttered to himself, his left hand unconsciously tracing the golden longsword that had appeared out of nowhere.

【The Blade of Sanctions】.

No matter how many reasons you give, it's useless; a heartless person is a heartless person.

Molly is innocent.

If Baili Pangpang really wronged Molly because of her status, then let's just consider this knife as a gift she gave to her best friend in order to stab her in the back.

"……I don't know either."

Baili Pangpang didn't pay attention to the knife in Jiang Shiyuan's hand. He was momentarily distracted and even wished that Jiang Shiyuan would kill him with a few blows.

Perhaps only death could spare him from making that painful choice...
