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

Sun City!

Within the mist, a gust of air and a pale blue gale swirled up layers of white fog, surging towards Sun City.

As they approached Sun City, the bodies of Shu, the God of Air, and Xiu, the God of Wind, gradually materialized.

But when they looked at Sun City at this moment, they were stunned.

In Sun City, a wave of intense solar heat swept across the entire city, making it feel as if one were immersed in lava.

Of the nine divine pillars on Sun City, only the central one and the other two still shone with divine light; the rest had all dimmed.

"This... the Sun God has intervened, and there are still six other divine pillars..."

The God of Air's expression changed drastically upon seeing the scene before him.

“Geb and Isis… are dead!” Hugh, the wind god, stared at the dim pillar, his eyes wide with disbelief.

The God of Air, Shu, shook his head stiffly. "Impossible. Even if Geb and the others encountered another human who had become a god in Great Xia, they could never have died at that person's hands."

"If the four Nine Pillar Gods want to escape, there's no way Great Xia can stop them with its current strength."

Feng Shenxiu nodded slightly.

Indeed, with the gods of the Great Xia unable to intervene, it would be incredibly easy for Geb and his companions to escape, relying solely on that newly ascended human.

But what's with the dim divine pillar in front of us?

The loss of divine power and radiance from the divine pillar signifies the passing of that god.

“Xiu, let’s go see the Sun God,” Shu said seriously.

Feng Shenxiu could sense an unusual emotion in Shu's tone; it was a bad premonition.

As Hugh and Shu entered the city shrouded in the power of the sun god, everything was a vibrant red, and the intense heat burned their skin.

A moment later, they hovered above the central divine pillar.

A phantom slowly emerged atop the divine pillar, its scepter tapping the top of the pillar, and a surge of scorching divine power transformed into a hot wind that swept across the surroundings.

Shu Hexiu quickly bowed respectfully.

"What's going on?" asked Shu, the God of Air.

The sun god Ra gazed at them for a long time before saying in a deep voice, "The fate of the nation has been severed, but the Great Xia Divine Kingdom has been restored!"

!!!

Upon hearing this, Shu Hexiu's eyes widened immediately.

"No, that's impossible! The Great Xia Divine Kingdom could never have been repaired so quickly, otherwise..."

"That was all a trap set by those shameless and cunning people of Great Xia!" The voice of the Sun God 'Ra' suddenly sounded like thunder, as if he were roaring.

Shu Hexiu was taken aback and quickly lowered his head.

They were utterly shocked, meaning that from the very beginning, the Great Xia knew their intentions and had set a trap for them to fall into.

Would this weaken Sun City's strength?

It shouldn’t be!

If that's the case, why didn't the gods of Great Xia intervene when Osiris and the Wind God appeared in Great Xia?

This doesn't make any sense at all!

After calming down a bit, the sun god Ra continued, "I used my sun god power to see the scene of Geb and the others' deaths. It seems that Great Xia is hiding a powerful being."

A strong person?!

"Who is that? Could it be that everything was orchestrated by that 'powerful being'?" the God of Air asked.

“Hmm.” The sun god Ra’s eyes were very solemn as he slowly said, “On the eve of the death of the four gods of Geb, the gods of Great Xia surrounded them, and their first words were…”

"I will obey the instructions of my predecessors!"

Shu Hexiu frowned slightly.

To be addressed as 'senior' by all the gods of the Great Xia Dynasty? Just how powerful must this person be?!

And who could He be?!

……

The northern border of Daxia.

Four figures stood silently on the snow, gazing at the distant mist, seemingly anticipating something.

Whoosh!

Just then, a gust of wind howled in.

Half of the city, obscuring the sun, slowly emerged from the mist.

Upon seeing this, Ye Fan and the other three immediately showed joy.

Ding!

Immediately afterwards, a sword light flashed in the air, and Zhou Ping's figure appeared on the snow.

The snow in the North continued to fall, settling on the young man's black robe.

"I've brought the city back," Zhou Ping said calmly, looking at Ye Fan.

Ye Fan lowered her head, her nose stinging with tears.

Guan glanced at Ye Fan, then walked straight forward and patted the snowflakes off Zhou Ping.

"Are you stupid? You go just because he tells you to? Do you know how dangerous that is?"

The words, though accusatory, contained a hint of concern, which made Zhou Ping smile.

"I am the Sword Saint of Great Xia, this is what I should do."

"You... are still so simple." Guan shook his head with a chuckle.

"Zhou Ping, you've worked hard." Ye Fan let Lu Wuwei and the Master handle the affairs of half the city, then stepped forward and smiled.

Zhou Ping nodded, "This time, we owe a lot to Jiang Ye and Lin Qiye..."

As he spoke, he looked into the mist.

But according to Chen Han, the night watchman, Lin Qiye and his companions encountered an old man rowing a boat on the sea. After investigating, they never returned.

This made him feel vaguely worried.

"Hmm? Where are they?" Ye Fan had already heard from Zuo Qing that Lin Qiye and the others had foolishly walked into the mist in order to rescue the Sword Saint.

But why is only Zhou Ping back now?

Zhou Ping looked at the mist and shook his head, saying, "Lin Qiye and the others have gone missing, but I will bring them back."

"As for Jiang Ye... he also became a god, but he has already passed away."

!!!

Ye Fan and Guan Yi were stunned when they heard this.

Both of them understood the meaning behind Lin Qiye and the others' disappearance.

But the second half of the sentence, Jiang Ye has become a god. They all recognize these five characters, but why does it sound so unfamiliar when put together?

"Jiang Ye is only at the Sea Realm, how could he suddenly become a god?" Ye Fan asked, somewhat incredulous.

Zhou Ping didn't hold back, "I don't know either, but the aura of law emanating from him is even stronger than mine."

"According to the Egyptian Ennead, Jiang Ye is now considered a chief god."

Guan Zai and Ye Fan exchanged a glance, both showing expressions of surprise.

"Could it be that the divine power fluctuations that came from within the Great Xia territory when I was fighting the four Nine Pillar Gods just now were Jiang Ye's?" Ye Fan suddenly thought.

Guan frowned slightly. Although he didn't know Jiang Ye, he knew that Jiang Ye was a member of the fifth special team.

A special squad, which was just formed, has already had someone become a god?

This is absolutely unbelievable.

"No wonder Jiang Ye could fight opponents of higher levels and even beat the Masked Squad and Phoenix Squad so badly they dared to hang up on me. Turns out he's been playing dumb all along. Good lad!"

Ye Fan was somewhat amused and annoyed, but mostly pleased.

The fact that two people from the Great Xia Dynasty have become gods in a row is definitely a rare and wonderful thing for the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Where did Jiang Ye go?" Ye Fan asked.

Zhou Ping looked in one direction. "He said he had something very important to do and should be in Cangnan by now."

Cangnan!?

Ye Fan frowned. What was Jiang Ye doing in Cangnan?
