Godslayer: After the Seraph rejected me, I ascended directly to the highest godhood.

meeting room!

Night's Watch high command meeting!

Ye Fan and Zuo Qing entered the conference room one after the other.

The attendees who arrived early all stood up from their seats.

Ye Fan walked to the front of the conference table, nodded, and sat down.

The others then sat down again.

"I believe you have already reviewed the materials provided by Zuo Qing before the meeting."

Ye Fan placed his hands on the table, his gaze sharp. "So, do you have any further objections to establishing a fifth special team?"

The words have fallen!

A brief silence fell over the meeting room.

It wasn't until an old man spoke up that Jiang Ye and Lin Qiye, who had only been with the Night Watch for a little over a year, were finally able to train in any squad while trapped in Cangnan.

"I think it would be better to let them hone their skills further."

As soon as one person spoke, many others nodded slightly in agreement.

Sitting at the back, Shao Pingge looked at the information provided by Zuo Qing and fell into deep thought.

Jiang Ye's strength is undeniable; he has the potential to instantly kill a peak-level Wuliang in the Chuanjing realm, making him qualified to be the captain of a special squad.

The selection of a special squad leader is not based on current strength, but primarily on future potential.

How far can we take this team?

A forbidden realm that can infinitely absorb spiritual energy and sharpen the perception of "breaking gold" will eventually cause it to shatter due to its inability to withstand the pressure.

Shao Pingge could hardly imagine how high Jiang Ye would grow in the future.

They wouldn't even lose to any special squad.

"Now that the mysterious number of people descending upon Great Xia has arrived, do you think we still have time to train them?"

Seeing that there were still quite a few people who disagreed, Ye Fan frowned.

In fact, he had anticipated this situation long ago.

I've also figured out how to deal with it.

“Commander Ye, I understand the situation of Da Xia, but I don’t think he can lead a team well based solely on its current strength and potential, which shows no achievements.”

"Yes, Commander Ye, I think they still need more training. It's too early to establish a fifth special branch."

"..."

Ye Fan listened quietly, a smile appearing on his lips. "In that case, let's give them time to hone their skills."

Everyone was stunned.

This seems a bit off; we had been trying to persuade them all along.

Why did you agree so readily this time?

The first elderly man to speak couldn't help but ask, "Commander Ye, what are your plans for Jiang Ye and Lin Qiye?"

Ye Fan glanced at Zuo Qing, who understood and took out several documents, distributing them to everyone in the conference room.

"Since you want them to get some experience, then don't form a special squad yet. Instead, form a fifth special squad reserve team."

"If they pass our assessment, we'll then give them permanent positions."

What do you think?

Upon hearing this, many people frowned slightly, seemingly expressing some dissatisfaction.

Ye Fan didn't give them a chance to continue speaking and tapped the table.

"I have listened to your advice on honing my skills, now let's begin voting."

"Those who agree to establish a fifth reserve special squad, raise your hands!"

Ye Fan raised his right hand.

The others at the conference table listened to Ye Fan's forceful tone just now.

Of course I know, I've already taken your advice, and the next thing to say is, don't be ungrateful!

They sighed helplessly and slowly raised their hands.

"Eight people agreed, one person refused, and two abstained."

Ye Fan listened to the result with a faint smile on his face.

"Alright, the fifth special squad reserve team is approved!"

……

The last night before the Eternal Realm disappeared.

The moonlight in the night sky was as bright and full as it had been a year ago.

On that familiar rooftop, Jiang Ye and Lin Qiye were no longer sitting; now, Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan were there.

"Damn, Jiang Ye, Qi Ye, is today really your birthday?"

"On the same day, you two aren't long-lost brothers, are you?" Baili Pangpang asked in surprise, holding a can of beer in his hand.

Lin Qiye shook his head and explained, "We're only a day apart, but because we've been neighbors since we were little, my aunt and Jiang Ye's mother often celebrate our birthdays together."

Cao Yuan nodded. "I see."

Baili Pangpang then took out two Rolex watches, grinned, and handed them to Jiang Ye and Lin Qiye.

"Why didn't you say so earlier? I didn't bring any gifts, so this is all I can bring."

"My dad's birthday is coming up soon. Come to Guangzhou and Shenzhen to celebrate with him and make it up to you."

He grinned and placed the gleaming gold Rolex on Lin Qiye's wrist.

The latter is nothing but helplessness.

"Here, Brother Jiangye, do you like this?" Baili Pangpang asked, pinching the Water Ghost.

Jiang Ye hesitated for a moment.

Seeing his hesitation, Baili Pangpang casually tossed the valuable Rolex behind him, leaving it somewhere and who would benefit from it in the future.

"It's okay, if you don't like it, we can look at something else."

Jiang Ye: "..."

He rubbed his forehead, thinking, "What a fool with so much money."

However, when Baili Xin's birthday banquet was mentioned, Jiang Ye couldn't help but recall how Baili Pangpang was plotted against and murdered by the person he thought he loved most.

He smiled and accepted Baili Pangpang's Rolex. "Thanks, I'll protect you next time."

Since he's going to make drastic changes, this time he won't let Baili Pangpang die at Baili Jing's hands.

"Hehe, okay then!" Baili Pangpang scratched his head and laughed.

Lin Qiye couldn't help but smile, raising a can of 'Snowflake' beer in his hand, "Come on, cheers!"

The three men lifted it up.

boom!

Under the moonlight, beer foam splashed up.

The four of them downed their drinks in one gulp.

After chatting for a while, on their last day in the city, Baili Pangpang and Cao Yuan did not disturb them as they said goodbye to their loved ones.

Jiang Ye and Lin Qiye returned to their respective homes.

Inside the low-ceilinged house.

Although there was a faint sadness on Lin Qiye's face, it was no longer as intense as it had been a year ago.

Crunch!

"Auntie, Jin, I'm back."

He walked into the living room and saw his aunt sitting at the dining table waiting. Yang Jin quickly stood up.

"Oh! Really, Xiao Qi, come down quickly, Auntie will heat up your food." Auntie smiled kindly when she saw her.

Lin Qiye sat obediently at the dining table, patted Xiao Hei's head, and looked at A Jin sitting opposite him.

And my aunt who went to serve hot dishes.

Within a year, he learned to accept it.

next door!

"I'll only be at ease when I see you settle down and start a family!"

The mother, Liu Su, looked at her son and smiled as she served him food.

Jiang Ye listened to his mother's nagging and said, "Okay, once I achieve my goal of landing on the moon, I'll definitely find you a beautiful daughter-in-law."

(No female lead, don't worry!)

Liu Su smiled and said, "I've heard that astronauts have a hard time finding partners, so you'd better hurry up."

"Okay." Jiang Ye started eating in silence.

Liu Su didn't touch her chopsticks. She always thought that her son's eyes would recover.

Now that my son's eyesight has really recovered, I want to see him get married and start a family.

If I have another child, it would be good to help take care of him while I'm still alive.

Under the soft yellow light, Liu Su looked at her son with a smile, as if he were her everything.

late at night!

The barrier light screen in Cangnan flickered with its last glimmer of light before turning into green specks of light and gradually dissipating.
