Godslayer: My Girlfriend Red Tassel

late at night.

Amidst the surging sea, the group sat atop their somersault cloud, speeding towards the Great Xia.

The entire 【Masked】 team was overjoyed and in high spirits. Not only did everything go smoothly on this trip, but they also unexpectedly acquired a rare treasure. All they had to do was end their vacation early. Such a wonderful thing was truly rare.

Wang Mian, in particular, could hardly contain his excitement.

Others could not comprehend his state of mind at that moment. After all, there had been times when he watched helplessly as his teammates, who were like family to him, fell one after another. That near-despair and collapse almost consumed him.

Now, fate has bestowed upon him such a perfect ending, how could he not be filled with emotion?

In comparison.

[Nightfall] Everyone, especially Su Yan and Lin Qiye, felt increasingly uneasy the closer they got to Da Xia. They would frown and scratch their heads from time to time, and sometimes whisper to each other, but they all wore [masks], and no one knew what secrets they were hiding.

"Su Yan, do you have a nail under your butt?" Wang Mianfan asked.

"It wasn't me!" Su Yan shook her head abruptly, then, seeing Wang Mian's puzzled expression of "What do you mean, it wasn't you?", she quickly corrected him with a smile:

"I... I've just been away from home for too long, and the closer I get to home, the happier and more excited I become, to the point that I can't sit still."

"It's only been a little over a month, why are you so agitated?" Wang looked puzzled, but then, after a moment's thought, he laughed heartily:

"That's true. You're happy to have someone thinking about you, unlike us, where we're all worry-free with just one person to feed."

"Yep!"

Su Yan rubbed her eyes and looked at Lin Qiye with pleading eyes.

Lin Qiye quickly lowered his head, frowned, and stared intently at the auspicious cloud patterns on the somersault cloud, occasionally revealing an expression of sudden realization.

Su Yan:......

Wang Mian didn't notice Lin Qiye and continued to laugh.

"Su Yan, the success of [Masked] this time is largely thanks to your help. I can only express my gratitude in one sentence. Here's what you need from the Night Watchers' forbidden inventory. Just say the word, and I will exchange it for you on behalf of the entire [Masked] team. They certainly won't have any objections. This is just a small token of my goodwill, so please don't refuse."

"..."

"What, didn't find anything you liked in the forbidden inventory? If you really have no ideas, then I'll take the liberty of selecting twenty [Godhunter Crossbows] for you. You suffered considerable losses in the battle against Susanoo, and we [Masked] will make up for some of your losses!"

Seeing that Shenlong Pass was in sight ahead, Wang Mian took out his communicator. Once inside the pass, he could connect to the signal and open the electronic merit database.

"Snapped."

Su Yan grabbed Wang Mian's arm and, after a moment of hesitation under Wang Mian's questioning gaze, asked:

"Captain Wang, I've always had a question that I'd like to discuss with you. When someone achieves great success, is that success shaped by the process of hard work and struggle, or is it determined by the final result?"

"?"

Why did you suddenly get into philosophy?

Wang was completely bewildered, but seeing Su Yan's serious expression, and worried that the topic might be related to mental cultivation, he dared not be negligent and, after a moment's thought, gave his answer:

"I think it's the process. Although most people care about the result and success, there isn't that much success to be given to everyone in this world. There will always be people who fall on the road to success and become stepping stones, but we cannot deny their value."

"Well said, keep going, don't stop!" Su Yan's eyes shone as he nodded repeatedly.

Wang Mian's spirits lifted, and he said with great emotion:

"For example, there are no shortage of brave and fearless people in the Night's Watch who resolutely use the 'Ghostly Spell' to fight against the mysterious in times of crisis. Even if they fail to kill it in the end, can we deny the value of heroes because of this?"

"No, as long as they dare to sacrifice themselves, they are the true heroes of the Great Xia!"

"Yes, that's what I think too!" Su Yan clapped his hands together excitedly and said:

"The process is the most important, the result is secondary! For example, take the [Masked] squad. Even if one day its number is revoked, so what? Does that negate the existence of [Masked]? Even if all its achievements are wiped out, so what? Does that erase the glory of [Masked]?"

Even if all of this comes true, [Masked] will simply laugh it off, disdain to argue, turn and leave without a trace!

What nonsense are you spouting? Are we even on the same wavelength...? Wang was completely bewildered, but mostly pleased. He nodded slightly and smiled.

"Yes, you're right."

At this point, Su Yan's eyes widened in amazement, and he excitedly grabbed Wang Mian, saying:

"I understand now! No wonder they're called 'Masked'! They're the role model for our Great Xia! Come on, let's all give 'Masked' a round of applause! Let's cheer for this team that's about to... even with nothing left, dares to make a comeback!"

"Clap clap clap clap—!"

As night fell, everyone began to clap wildly.

Whirlpool, Rose, and Tianping were puzzled, but they smiled and nodded in agreement.

Ye Fan's lips twitched, and he fell silent.

"Look, we've reached Chenlong Pass!" Jiang Er cheered, pointing to the horizon.

The majestic steel fortress stands firm amidst the raging waves, unshaken by the relentless assault of the sea.

On the right side of the city wall, a blue and white giant sculpture stands there, exuding a holy and austere aura.

"I heard that's a skill that your temporary worker possesses?" Wang asked with interest.

"His name is Yuri Takishiro, the pinnacle of human achievement. His Gundam mecha is an SS-rank item," Su Yan said with a smile.

"Actually, this child is only thirteen years old. I have already sent him to be trained by a master. He previously defended Shenlong Pass, which attracted everyone's admiration. In a moment of excitement, he left his most beloved Gundam at Shenlong Pass for people to visit. Now, he slaps himself in regret every night in his dreams."

Ye Fan chuckled:

"Take some time to send the child back, and just put up a model there."

Su Yan responded and asked:

"Commander, shall we enter the pass?"

"Go straight to the nearest airport. I need to go back to Beijing. I haven't seen Zuo Qing in a long time."

"Captain Wang, are you also going back to Beijing?" Lin Qiye asked.

"Yes, reporting on work."

Lin Qiye's expression was solemn. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice, "In that case, our team will not return to Shangjing for now. We will go back to Cangnan first. There are a lot of important matters piling up there that need to be dealt with!"

"What's the big deal, Captain? We're bored anyway, why don't we go help them? Consider it a make-up vacation," asked the curious Whirlpool.

"Alright, there's no rush to report." Wang smiled, returning the favor.

"..." Lin Qiye looked at Su Yan with a pleading expression.

This is retribution, this is blatant retribution... Su Yan whistled, his eyes darting around.

"You can't help me." Lin Qiye gritted his teeth and thought for two seconds:

"...Yes, there are a few old men who are dying tomorrow, I have to go and play the suona for them!"

"???"

(P.S.: The next chapter is under review, and it's unlikely to be unblocked tonight. I'll revise and post it as soon as it's unblocked... What a pity, I'll have to cut a lot of text again~~)
