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

Asylum of the Gods.

Lin Qiye walked into Meilin's ward with a slightly downcast expression.

"Have a seat." Merlin seemed to know he was coming.

Lin Qiye stood silently for a while before sitting down opposite Merlin.

"Lord Merlin, what have you deduced about the other thread influencing Zhou Ping's fate?"

he asked.

After all, they currently have no way to enter the fog.

There are no forbidden objects that can walk in the mist; those who come into contact with the mist will be corroded.

Merlin put down his spellbook, looked at Lin Qiye, whose face was full of worry, and shook his head.

"That thread of fate was thick and bright, and it did not belong to this world."

"Not belonging to this world?" Lin Qiye was very surprised. "If it doesn't belong, why can it influence Zhou Ping's fate?"

Merlin explained, "His soul doesn't belong to this world. I tried to use magic to predict it, but a strange energy interfered."

"It seems like they're protecting him."

Lin Qiye was taken aback. His soul didn't belong to this world?

Who exactly is he? Why are the threads that influence the Sword Saint's fate so thick and bright?

Lin Qiye fell into a brief moment of contemplation, then asked, "Then is it possible that he will appear?"

"I can't be sure, this is the first time I've encountered this situation." Merlin did not give a definite answer.

Lin Qiye's hope was extinguished once again.

"I understand." He walked out of Merlin's ward, somewhat lost in thought.

Merlin shook his head slightly and took a sip of goji berry tea.

Lin Qiye walked out of the ward, his hands in the pockets of his white coat, looking at the ground as he headed towards the dean's office.

But as he walked, a sweet aroma of fruit wine entered his nostrils.

Lin Qiye stopped and looked up slightly, and the Great Sage's ward came into view.

He looked at the fruit wine placed outside the door, pondered for a moment, picked up the jar of wine, and pushed open the door to Dasheng's ward.

The ancient ape, draped in a red robe, remained seated motionless like a monk, radiating golden Buddhist light.

Lin Qiye, holding a bottle of wine, sat opposite the Monkey King.

He poured a glass of wine for the Great Sage, and then poured one for himself.

"Brother Monkey, I won't go on and on about the story today."

"I'll just say a few words and then I'll leave."

However, the ancient ape did not react.

Lin Qiye didn't mind, took a sip of fruit wine, and continued talking to himself.

"Brother Monkey, have you ever experienced the death of your brothers and teachers, and been powerless to do anything about it?"

Upon hearing this, the ancient ape opened its closed eyes slightly, revealing a faint golden light.

Lin Qiye seemed oblivious and took another sip of fruit wine.

“My childhood friend offended a very powerful god. That god wanted to kill him, and all I could do was put him to sleep to avoid this crisis.”

“But I can help him once, but what about next time, and the time after that? If he dies, I…” Lin Qiye’s voice choked up, and tears welled up in his eyes.

hum!

The ancient ape opened its eyes halfway, its golden pupils filled with sorrow.

Lin Qiye, with a blush on his face, took another big gulp, completely oblivious to the changes in the Great Sage.

"And then, my teacher, a kind and innocent person, may also die, and I am powerless to do anything about it now."

"I knew that my presence might save him, but things in this world never go as planned."

“I hate that I am not strong enough to protect my aunt, Ah Jin, and my brother who was willing to spend a year treating me.”

"Even now, I know I can help my teacher, but I'm still too weak to do so!"

Lin Qiye's tears fell into the wine glass, creating ripples.

His eyes were red, and he lowered his head, unable to contain his emotions.

He looked at his reflection in the wine glass, took a bite, and finished the fruit wine in one gulp.

pat!

Lin Qiye dropped the wine glass in his hand, and he still lowered his head, saying, "Because of my weakness, I can only watch helplessly as the people I cherish leave one after another."

"Is this fate?"

boom!

Suddenly, a powerful pressure erupted from the ancient ape, and the slightly drunk Lin Qiye was instantly blasted away by this powerful aura.

Lin Qiye sobered up instantly and took several steps back before stopping.

"Brother Monkey..."

The Great Sage, radiating golden light, stood up from the futon, his eyes gleaming with dazzling golden light.

The Great Sage flashed to Lin Qiye's side, grabbed his collar, and let out a roar.

"To hell with fate!"

[Sun Wukong's healing progress: 1%]

……

heaven.

Standing tall above the clouds, amidst the swirling mist, the various celestial palaces and magnificent buildings appear and disappear.

Outside the South Heavenly Gate, heavenly soldiers and generals stood guard with imposing presence, and the gateposts were carved with lifelike dragons and phoenixes.

Suddenly, two figures slowly appeared outside the South Heavenly Gate.

The heavenly soldiers guarding the area sensed the presence of the newcomer and quickly clasped their hands in salute.

"Tianzun!"

The old man in plain Taoist robes nodded and glanced at Jiang Ye and Xiao Jin behind him.

"Fellow Daoist, please follow me."

Jiang Ye looked at the magnificent and imposing Heavenly Court and nodded.

Even before the Heavenly Court's original essence was restored, this was the scene before it appeared, but it was still pleasing to the eye.

Xiao Jin, hovering beside Jiang Ye, suddenly felt a sense of returning home in glory.

Jiang Ye, sensing Xiao Jin's thoughts, narrowed his eyes slightly and touched his fair palm.

!!!

After sensing the murderous aura, Xiao Jin immediately became obedient, lowering his head and not daring to look at the beautiful scenery around him.

That's absolutely brutal!

Under the guidance of Yuanshi Tianzun, Jiang Ye arrived at a fairy pavilion surrounded by ethereal mist, where pure white cranes flew in the air.

They didn't encounter any immortals along the way; they were probably all busy repairing the Heavenly Court's origins.

Beside the pavilion is a waterfall, from which comes the melodious sound of flowing water.

Jiang Ye frowned as he looked at the chessboard in the middle of the pavilion.

He turned to look at the old man, "Heavenly Venerable, what do you mean by this?"

Yuanshi Tianzun smiled gently, sat on a futon beside the chessboard, and slowly said, "Fellow Daoist, rest assured, I have already informed Yang Jian, and he will soon send the souls of everyone in Cangnan here."

"Why don't we take this time and play another game of chess?"

Play chess?

Jiang Ye's face darkened; this old bastard was indeed up to no good.

"I don't play chess with people I've beaten. Find someone stronger."

"..." Yuanshi Tianzun paused in his action of collecting the chess pieces, and an embarrassed look immediately appeared on his face.

Jiang Ye smiled slightly. How could he not know what Yuan Shi was thinking? He just wanted him to stay and help repair the Heavenly Court's origin.

Even if you bet, you can't win. You're both bad at the game and love to play.

Yuanshi Tianzun placed the last chess piece into the box, looked up at Jiang Ye, and smiled.

"How about this, fellow Daoist? Let's play another round. If you win, the gods of Heaven will be at your command once. What do you say?"
