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

heaven.

Above the Lingxiao Palace, against a backdrop of magnificent and resplendent gold and jade decorations.

Jiang Ye sat in a row with Yuanshi Tianzun, Daode Tianzun, and the Jade Emperor.

His Highness was surrounded by the gods of Heaven, who looked at the young man sitting in the hall with strange eyes, exuding the aura of a Heavenly Venerable.

"Who is this from the Heavenly Court? I've never seen him before."

"He does not belong to the Heavenly Court." Donghua Dijun, who is in charge of the Book of Life and Death in both the Heavenly Court and the Underworld, shook his head.

The gods were even more astonished upon hearing this.

He wasn't from the Heavenly Court, but the blood of the Great Xia people definitely flowed in that boy's veins!

Could it be that he grew from a human to the Celestial Venerable he is today? And was he not recorded by the Heavenly Court in the process?

Just as the gods' faces were full of doubt and confusion.

Standing next to Yang Jian, Nezha in red nudged Yang Jian's shoulder and said, "Second Brother, your neighbor is too awesome! He can now sit on equal footing with someone like the Heavenly Venerable."

Yang Jian looked at Jiang Ye sitting on the throne, a strange look appearing in his eyes.

He already knew Jiang Ye's true strength, so he wasn't surprised.

What he was most concerned about was what Jiang Ye wanted to do by coming to take back the souls of all the residents of Cangnan.

And that vibrant divine power from just now... it felt a bit strange.

He had seen Jiang Ye use this divine power to extend Cangnan's life by a year before.

But that divine power was very weak then, not nearly as strong as it had been just now.

Does Jiang Ye intend to use this divine power to revive Cang Nan?

Yang Jian frowned slightly. Reviving others was a heaven-defying act, and the divine power required was immeasurable.

Is Jiang Ye really willing to do this?

In the hall, Jiang Ye sat between the Heavenly Venerable and Laozi, his expression utterly indifferent.

The Heavenly Venerable of Primordial Beginning and the Heavenly Venerable of Morality had different expressions, as if they were pondering something.

The Jade Emperor also showed a thoughtful expression, exchanged a glance with the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, and nodded.

Jiang Ye simply smiled faintly and ignored it.

Their little schemes are nothing more than these trivial matters of the Heavenly Court.

"Celestial Venerable, shouldn't you fulfill your promise?" He picked up the cup of immortal tea in front of him and took a sip.

The Celestial Lord of Primordial Beginning's expression changed. He looked at the gods of Heaven below and gradually became troubled.

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Venerable of Morality couldn't help but say, "Celestial Venerable, you've lost again?"

The Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning's face darkened. After pondering for a moment, he nodded.

The gods were stunned when they heard this, and the whispers and speculations ceased.

The Celestial Venerable lost! This is quite a rare occurrence.

"Heavenly Venerable, what did you promise?" the Jade Emperor asked curiously from the side.

Yuanshi Tianzun's lips twitched as he looked at the gods of Heaven, unsure of what to say.

"This... Senior, I will keep my promise, but your breakthrough has interrupted the repair of the Heavenly Court's origin, which puts me in a difficult position."

Yuanshi Tianzun quickly changed the subject and said to Jiang Ye.

The word "senior" sent a jolt through the hearts of all the gods present.

The head of the three Heavenly Venerables addresses this young senior as a respectful term?

This……

The gods were utterly astonished.

Even the Jade Emperor and Laozi showed expressions of surprise.

All eyes were on Jiang Ye.

The young man put down his teacup and smiled calmly, "Heavenly Venerable, what are you thinking now..."

"As the saying goes, cause and effect are a cycle. If the senior has interrupted the repair of the Heavenly Court's origin, we, the gods of the Heavenly Court, will have to repair it all over again. I'm afraid it will be difficult to fulfill the senior's promise."

The Primordial Celestial Venerable spoke calmly, but his words were all about asking him to help restore the Heavenly Court's original essence.

Laozi and the Jade Emperor understood the implication, exchanged a glance, and remained silent.

The three celestial officials watched Jiang Ye's reaction.

The latter, however, remained unhurried and slowly said, "So, the Celestial Venerable wants me to help you repair the Heavenly Court's origin?"

"If that's the case, then that's wonderful." Yuanshi Tianzun smiled gently and bowed.

With Jiang Ye's help in repairing the Heavenly Court's origins, it will be much easier for me to discuss the matter of deployment with the gods of the Great Xia Dynasty.

"It's possible, but I've never had a free lunch in this world, don't you think, Venerable One?"

Jiang Ye picked up the teacup, shook it, and smiled.

The smile of the Primordial Celestial Venerable froze.

The Jade Emperor and Laozi glared at each other and then turned to face each other.

The gods of Heaven below also put away their weapons and remained silent.

It's obvious that this senior is here to extort money.

Having gone through so many cycles of reincarnation, they still understand this principle.

The face of the Primordial Celestial Venerable twitched slightly.

Jiang Ye was the one who interfered with the restoration of the Heavenly Court's essence, yet he's actually benefiting from it...

This... is simply...

Yuanshi Tianzun closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then slowly took out a golden rope from his robe.

"Senior, this item is called the 'Immortal Binding Rope,' and it can control enemies..."

Jiang Ye listened to Yuanshi Tianzun's introduction, nodded, and took it from his hands.

“That’s right,” he replied affirmatively.

Yuanshi Tianzun was delighted. "So, Senior, you've agreed?"

Jiang Ye put the 'Binding Immortal Rope' into his ring and continued to calmly drink his tea without replying.

Suddenly, the hall fell into an eerie silence.

Seeing Jiang Ye's appearance, Yuanshi Tianzun knew exactly what he meant.

It's simply too little...

He glanced at the gods of the Great Xia below, but they all avoided his gaze.

Yuanshi Tianzun felt a toothache, sighed, and took out a golden disc and a lamp from his robe.

"Senior, that was just a greeting gift. It's a present to thank you for helping the Heavenly Court restore its origin."

"These two items are named 'Nine Dragons Incense Carriage' and 'Auspicious Cloud Golden Lamp.' The former is a magical vehicle, while the latter is a protective golden lamp that I condensed with great magical power, making it impervious to all magic."

What do you think?

Jiang Ye coughed twice and waved his hand, saying, "You're too kind, Heavenly Venerable. I am also a citizen of the Great Xia Dynasty. How could I not help the Heavenly Court when it is in trouble!"

He then took the 'Nine Dragons Incense Carriage' and the 'Auspicious Cloud Golden Lamp' and put them into his ring.

Yuanshi Tianzun: "..."

The Jade Emperor tapped his head upon hearing this.

Even the gods in His Highness couldn't help but click their tongues.

"Then, senior, may I accompany you to repair the Heavenly Court's origin?"

Yuanshi Tianzun adjusted his mindset, his expression remaining gentle.

They really went all out this time, giving away three magical treasures!

This is practically a wrongful conviction! Jiang Ye was the one who interrupted the restoration of the source, and now I have to use a magic weapon to summon him...

Alas! There's nothing we can do. Without the support of the Heavenly Court's Origin, Jiang Ye's strength is no match for them.

We can't use tough measures; we have to resort to softer approaches.

"Heavenly Venerable, rest assured, I am not one to break my promise."

At this moment, Jiang Ye took out the bottle of 'glue' from his pocket and placed it in front of Yuanshi Tianzun.

"This item can directly repair the essence of the Heavenly Court."

Upon hearing this, all the gods in Heaven were startled and looked over with curious eyes.

Yuanshi Tianzun was also extremely puzzled, looking at the small bottle floating in front of him with hopeful eyes.

But... when I saw the label on the bottle that said "Deli Brand Super Glue".

His face instantly fell.
