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

Cangnan.

In the afternoon, the afterglow of the setting sun bathed the red bricks and tiles.

Jiang Ye walked home from the Peace Agency, feeling somewhat depressed despite his usual cheerful mood.

He walked, bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun. This time, he was alone, wearing his school uniform, just like before.

Without realizing it, he lost track of time and let his body move on.

"Ono."

Just as he was about to arrive home, a familiar voice came from inside. Jiang Ye snapped out of his reverie and looked up slightly.

At the roadside, a simply dressed woman with a gentle face sat by the intersection, seemingly waiting for something.

"Auntie." Jiang Ye took a few steps forward and greeted Lin Qiye's aunt.

She smiled and nodded, then asked, "Xiao Ye, you're back now, but why isn't Xiao Qi back yet?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ye fell silent for a moment.

During the memory modification, he only erased information about all the people in Cangnan, Aunt Lin Qiye, the divine war, and the destruction of Cangnan.

She added the plausible reasons for Lin Qiye joining the army and Yang Jin going to study in another city. Although the changes were a bit far-fetched, these were the only things she could remember after the revisions.

Jiang Ye didn't know how to answer her, but he said confidently, "Don't worry, Auntie, Lin Qiye will definitely come back."

"Xiao Ye, you and Xiao Qi grew up together, do you have a way to contact him?"

She reached out and grabbed Jiang Ye's collar, her eyes full of worry, and said, "Just help me see if Xiao Qi is doing well."

"That child always thinks very little of himself and shoulders everything on his own."

Jiang Ye could sense that she loved Lin Qiye just as her mother loved her.

That kind of concern cannot be imitated.

"Auntie, I'll give it a try, I'll call you later," Jiang Ye replied with a smile.

When she saw that she had agreed, a smile spread across her face, revealing the marks of time.

"Okay, thank you, Ono."

Jiang Ye hummed in agreement and walked towards his home. After walking a distance, he turned back to look at Lin Qiye's aunt.

She remained sitting at the intersection, gazing at the end of the road, as if expecting someone to appear.

Jiang Ye looked around for a while before entering the house.

Mother Liu Su had already prepared dinner, and the aroma wafted from the dining table.

"You brat, all you do is play all day. You're only just getting back now. Go wash your hands and eat."

Then, Jiang Zhenghua's reprimand came.

Jiang Ye washed his hands as instructed, sat at the dining table, and looked at the sumptuous meal on the table.

But I felt even more depressed.

He looked out the window, and in the twilight, the lonely figure sitting at the crossroads was heartbreaking.

On one side is family reunion, on the other is an endless wait...

It naturally divides it into two worlds.

After dinner, night fell, and the bright moon rose high in the sky, making the stars pale in comparison.

After Jiang Ye's parents went to sleep, he appeared on the rooftop where they used to watch the moon.

He sat on the gray tiles, the evening breeze carrying a slight chill.

He held a bottle of wine and the letter Lin Qiye had written, staring blankly at the moon, lost in thought.

Countless memories flooded my mind.

From the despair of seeing the moon here for the first time, to the final miracle of healing someone's eyes when seeing the moon for the second time, to now... only able to appreciate alone the joy of this city's return.

Jiang Ye slowly lowered his head, and the captain's voice rang in his ears.

'We have the ability not to distance ourselves from our loved ones, but to protect them when the sky falls.'

boom!

The bottle slipped from Jiang Ye's hand and crashed to the ground.

He squinted, rested his head on his knees, and looked at the letter over and over again.

He now truly possesses the ability to protect those he cherishes.

But he had to go; he had to go and achieve his goals.

Jiang Ye gazed at the pure white moon. His enemy was still there; he couldn't stop.

Can……

He clutched the letter tightly, a conflicted look on his face.

After a long while, Jiang Ye's eyes slowly cleared, as if he had made a decision.

He stood up, looked at the horizon, and sighed deeply.

Jiang Ye's body rippled with divine power. He took a step forward and instantly disappeared from the spot.

……

Heaven!

“Senior, it is probably not appropriate to send my disciple back to Cangnan.”

In a celestial pavilion, Yuanshi Tianzun and Jiang Ye brewed tea and discussed the Dao.

Jiang Ye slowly put down his teacup. "Celestial Venerable, there's no need to beat around the bush. Just state your conditions."

The old man, dressed in plain Taoist robes, stroked his beard, pondered for a long time, and then shook his head.

"How dare I negotiate with you, senior? But if the Heavenly Court is ever in trouble, I hope you can offer some assistance."

Although the Heavenly Kingdom has been restored, the cultivation levels of the Heavenly Gods have not yet returned to their peak.

If we can get Jiang Ye's help, we can avoid future troubles.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ye frowned slightly.

This old bastard clearly wants to use me as a henchman.

But thinking of the woman sitting by the intersection in the old town, Jiang Ye sighed slightly.

“Heavenly Venerable, if that day truly comes, I will consider it.” He did not give a definite answer.

Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't force him, so he nodded slightly. "If that's the case, senior, you can have a good talk with my disciple. If he agrees, I will not stop you."

A golden light flashed in the palm of the Primordial Celestial Venerable's hand, and a moment later, a beam of light flew from the sky.

A beautiful parabola landed at the entrance of the fairy pavilion.

It was Yang Jian, who had a third eye on his forehead, and his enlarged celestial dog, Xiaotian.

"The Celestial Venerable summoned me?" Yang Jian saw Jiang Ye, a hint of doubt on his face, and bowed to the two of them.

Yuanshi Tianzun nodded slightly, "Senior, I will not disturb your conversation any longer."

The words have fallen!

The Primordial Celestial Venerable sitting opposite has disappeared, leaving only specks of light drifting down in the air.

Jiang Ye did not stop him, picked up his teacup, and looked at Yang Jian and Xiaotianquan outside the Immortal Pavilion.

"Senior, what brings you here?" Yang Jian hesitated for a moment before addressing him respectfully.

Jiang Ye stood up, looked at Yang Jian and said, "Are you willing to go back to Cangnan? Your mother misses you very much."

Ok?

Yang Jian was stunned, his eyes widening.

Mother!

"Senior, isn't Cangnan already..."

“I’ve resurrected him,” Jiang Ye said calmly.

These words struck Yang Jian like a thunderclap.

The dog beside him had a blank expression, its eyes practically bulging out of their sockets.

Huh? So Jiang Ye wanted the souls of everyone in Cangnan last time in order to revive Cangnan?

But this...

Can a city that has long since vanished really be resurrected as easily as Jiang Ye claims?

Just how terrifying was his strength?

Yang Jian took a deep breath, a conflicted look on his face. "Senior, but what about the Heavenly Court now? If I leave..."

"You don't need to worry about that, the Celestial Venerable has no objection."

Jiang Ye took a sip of tea and put the teacup back down. "I don't want you to stay in Cangnan forever. You just need to wait for Lin Qiye to come back, and then you can decide for yourself whether to stay or leave."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian seemed to have guessed his meaning. After hesitating for a moment, he bowed and said, "Then I will listen to Senior."

Jiang Ye smiled and nodded slightly.

After completing the mission to revive Cangnan, the mission prompt mentioned that Ruolin Qiye would experience unexpected changes in his heart after learning about Cangnan's resurrection.

It's important to understand that the main storyline originates from the protagonist, so if it affects the protagonist, it will seriously impact the subsequent main storyline.

The modification value will definitely be high.

So, let's take Lin Qiye home now.

Jiang Ye looked into the distance and thought to himself, "Lin Qiye, I'll accompany you one last time so you can see my return gift to you."
