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

In the dim light of Fengdu, a black coffin lay silently behind the bronze door, without making a sound.

After Lin Qiye uttered those words, Jialan clenched her small hands, bit her teeth slightly, and turned her head to the side as if she was sulking.

Why don't you come out?

Lin Qiye, who was standing to the side watching, frowned and asked.

Garan ignored him.

At this moment, Jiang Ye, the strategist who believed in the wisdom of not falling in love, strode over and asked, "Is it possible that she's been locked in the coffin for too long and can't move?"

Lin Qiye was slightly taken aback and looked at the coffin, which was very ancient.

I don't know how many years have passed.

If it's a human being, lying down for a long time will cause muscles to gradually atrophy.

Lin Qiye walked back to the coffin. "You really can't move?"

Garan nodded reluctantly.

"Then I'll carry you out." Lin Qiye sensed that she was not in any danger, released his grip on the hilt of his sword, and carefully embraced Jialan's body.

His main concern was why the girl was in the coffin.

Perhaps we can get some information by using Jiang Ye's "Death Order".

Garan felt warm hands embrace her body, and a blush rose to her face.

Her angry expression vanished instantly, replaced by a stunning smile.

Not too wooden.

Lin Qiye used both hands to lift Jialan up... She was a bit heavy, but it was alright.

Then, he turned to Jiang Ye and said, "Jiang Ye, you use..."

Jiang Ye stopped talking when he saw the surprised look Lin Qiye gave him after he suddenly understood.

He glanced down at Jialan, then looked at Jiangye, and suddenly thought of something.

Holding a woman in my arms, Jiang Ye might misunderstand us as...

Immediately, Lin Qiye loosened his grip and waved his hand, saying, "I only did this because she couldn't move..."

Snapped!

Garan fell to the ground with a thud, letting out a soft groan.

Then, the cracking sound of fists being clenched reached their ears.

Jiang Ye: "..."

Okay, looks like I was overthinking it.

Straightforward as always!

He glanced at Garan on the ground, and Garan's gaze met his, his eyes filled with hostility.

???

What the hell?

Jiang Ye's facial twitching was outrageous.

Then, he turned around and said, "Seven Nights, she's yours now. You can raise the beauty you bring out yourself."

"I'm going out first."

Lin Qiye exclaimed, but the next second, Jiang Ye walked into the cave without giving him a chance to explain.

He looked at Garan lying on the ground and muttered to himself, "...Could it be that he's angry?"

Upon hearing this, Jialan's beautiful eyes widened instantly as she looked at Lin Qiye in disbelief, her teeth grinding together.

He slammed his fist into the ground, producing a dull thud, and cracks appeared in the stone slab.

Lin Qiye realized what was happening and his gaze fell on the girl in the blue robe.

He thought for a moment, then took the blue pendant off his neck, squatted down, and gently touched Jialan's fair skin.

The moment it touched the skin, the pendant emitted a shimmering emerald light that merged into Jialan's body.

"This was given to me by my childhood friend. It has a quick healing effect, and you'll be able to walk on your own soon."

Garan looked at the pendant in surprise, her delicate brows furrowed tightly.

"How do you feel? Can you move now?" Lin Qiye asked.

Garan shook her head with displeasure. Even though she could move now, she had to pretend she couldn't.

Helpless, Lin Qiye put the pendant back around his neck and grabbed Jialan's hands, "Then I'll carry you out."

The girl's eyes shone, and the corners of her mouth curved into a smile.

Lin Qiye stood up, carrying Jialan on his back, and walked towards the cave entrance.

Thinking to myself, this is a product of the discovery of this ruin, and it should be handed over to the higher-ups.

The girl's eyes were full of hostility when she looked at Jiang Ye just now.

This strengthened his resolve that the girl couldn't stay with the group for long, or a fight might break out.

"By the way, what's your name?" Lin Qiye asked.

The pendant's power of immortality helped Garan regain his mobility, but his language impairment could not be reversed.

The girl on his back smacked him and, relying on her memory, wrote two words on Lin Qiye's neck.

——Jialan.

Lin Qiye sensed it, "Jialan? So he's mute after all."

Garan: "..."

She frowned, reached out to touch the pendant around Lin Qiye's neck, and questioned him.

"No touching!"

Unexpectedly, just as he reached out halfway, Lin Qiye's warning came.

Garan's hands froze, clenching tightly, and tears welled up in her eyes.

In the end, she withdrew her hand, her eyes gradually shifting from aggrieved to jealous and hateful.

That man, you just wait!

At this moment, Jiang Ye had already come out of the cave.

The three people waiting outside heard the commotion and immediately came over.

"Brother Jiang Ye, you guys... um? Where's Lin Qiye?" Baili Pangpang looked behind Jiang Ye and asked in confusion.

An Qingyu and Cao Yuan's expressions changed slightly. Lin Qiye hadn't come out, could it be...?

"He's chasing girls," Jiang Ye said casually.

???

Upon hearing this, the three of them were completely dumbfounded.

What is that? Picking up girls?

Baili Pangpang glanced at the bronze door with a strange expression and pointed at it, saying, "This is a cemetery. Do you expect us to open a coffin and find a woman who has been dead for thousands of years, like in TV dramas?"

Jiang Ye was taken aback. "I didn't realize, Fatty, your intuition is pretty accurate. You really did find a girl from two thousand years ago in the coffin."

Upon hearing this, Baili Pangpang, An Qingyu, and Cao Yuan all had their faces twitch.

"From a scientific point of view, she would have been a corpse two thousand years ago. However, this world cannot be explained by science. Jiang Ye, take me inside and I will dissect that girl."

An Qingyu initially didn't believe it, but after thinking about it, she realized that if it were true, she would have another item in her research encyclopedia.

Before Jiang Ye could speak, Baili Pangpang interjected, "No, Qingyu. You actually believe that! Brother Jiang Ye, two thousand years ago, she was still a young girl."

"You don't even bother to think before you lie."

Cao Yuan clasped his hands together and nodded, "This woman is... no, she's practically an ancestor."

Jiang Ye was speechless. "You don't believe me, do you? Just wait, they'll be out in a bit."

Upon hearing Jiang Ye's words, the three of them couldn't help but look towards the cave entrance.

The cave entrance was now pitch black, devoid of the golden light that had illuminated it earlier.

Nothing could be seen with the naked eye, but the sound of slightly heavy footsteps could be heard, indicating that someone was walking out of the cave.

An Qingyu pushed up her glasses, and upon hearing the footsteps, she shook her head. "The footsteps are slightly heavy, but it's only one person's footsteps."

Disappointment flashed across Baili Pangpang's face. "Brother Jiangye, I was really hoping for a moment that Qiye, that insulator, would bring a girl up."

Jiang Ye did not answer, but waited quietly.

The footsteps grew closer, and Baili Pangpang stood at the cave entrance, ready to greet his beloved captain.

But when he saw the stunningly beautiful girl on Lin Qiye's back, he froze on the spot.

Hold the grass!

There really is a girl there!
