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

Two days later.

Great Xia, Shangjing City, Night Watch Headquarters.

Upon returning from Shenlong Pass, Ye Fan immediately summoned Zuo Qing.

"【Masked】Squad, how's the investigation going?"

Zuo Qing, standing in front of the desk, had an unusually solemn expression.

He hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "When the Masked Squad was facing the beast tide at Shenlong Pass, they received a phone call and then flew to the South China Sea."

Telephone?

Ye Fan was taken aback. The only phone that could command the special team was... his own.

He immediately pulled out a drawer from his desk, where a satellite phone lay quietly.

"Commander Ye, it's Chen Moyu."

Just as Ye Fan was about to check the records, Zuo Qing lowered his head, looking somewhat remorseful.

After all, Chen Moyu was his assistant. When the beast tide broke out and the situation was urgent, he entrusted him with the task of notifying the special team.

The disappearance of the "Masked" squad must be related to Chen Moyu.

After two days of investigation, the truth has come to light.

Zuo Qing continued in a calm voice, "The disappearance of the [Masked] team was premeditated, and Chen Moyu was only one hand; the ultimate mastermind was..."

"Who is it?" Ye Fan asked solemnly.

"Chen Lu."

Ye Fan's eyes trembled, and he remained silent for a long while before speaking softly.

"Where are they now?"

"Chen Lu is in jail awaiting interrogation, and Chen Moyu... I killed him with my own hands," Zuo Qing said without the slightest shame.

Ye Fan was taken aback, not expecting Zuo Qing to be so decisive and direct.

Chen Moyu is, after all, the child of the older generation of night watchmen, so it is really unreasonable for him to do this.

But now, the Great Xia Dynasty can no longer tolerate the presence of sand.

Ye Fan slowly stood up.

Zuo Qing stood respectfully. "Commander Ye, if there is to be a punishment, I, Zuo Qing, will accept it."

Ye Fan raised his hand, then clenched it into a fist and put it down. He walked up to Zuo Qing.

She reached out and pressed down on his shoulder. "Zuo Qing, you're better than me in some aspects. I'm leaving this to you. Don't worry about my opinion."

"You are now qualified to take over my position."

Ye Fanyu spoke earnestly.

If it were him, he would never be as decisive as Zuo Qing. Just like when Fengdu's original body was taken away by the Wind God, he still wouldn't tell Zhou Ping directly, but would do it indirectly.

But the Great Xia Dynasty now needs Zuo Qing's decisiveness.

"Go do it. I'll take responsibility for anything that happens." Ye Fan patted Zuo Qing on the shoulder.

The latter paused slightly, a determined glint in his eyes, gave Ye Fan a military salute, and strode out of the office.

After Zuo Qing left, Ye Fan stood by the window, gazing at the scenery outside, and sighed to himself.

"Ah! I'm getting old."

……

Interrogation room at Shangjing Prison.

Bang!

Zuo Qing opened the door to the interrogation room. It was very dark inside, with only a small window in the ceiling, so the light was extremely insufficient.

He walked to the front of the interrogation room and calmly looked at Chen Lu, who was handcuffed with a specially made silver bracelet.

"Old Chen, why did you lead the Masked Squad to the South China Sea? What's there?"

Zuo Qing stared coldly at Chen Lu.

The latter's expression remained unchanged as he calmly stated, "I am seeking a way out for Great Xia. Only if Great Xia abandons this path will 'they' be able to offer us one."

"Who are 'them'?"

Chen Lu glanced at Zuo Qing and smiled, "That's something we couldn't resist..."

"Bullshit!" Zuo Qing slammed his fist on the table and stood up. "Where in the South China Sea is the [Masked] Squad?"

Chen Lu remained calm, answering a completely different question, "What's the date today?"

Zuo Qing frowned slightly. "Number 14."

Chen Lu smiled and said, "It's too late. You're all too late."

Ok?

Upon hearing this, Zuo Qing's expression immediately became extremely solemn.

They could not get any information out of him during interrogation.

Ten minutes later, Zuo Qing walked out of the interrogation room with a frown and went straight to the archives to look up Chen Lu's information.

After searching for half a day, Chen Lu's file was finally found on a pile of old archive shelves.

After taking out the document, Zuo Qing scanned it and finally focused his attention on the address on it.

—South China Sea, XX fishing village.

……

South China Sea, outside a fishing village.

Daily tasks refresh; tasks are issued based on the current location.

Mission: Rescue.

Modify the time loop in the fishing village to prevent the [Masked] squad from being erased by time.

Task completed. Modification value will grant a 2-5x critical hit bonus.

Jiang Ye nodded slightly as he looked at the system panel. It was exactly the third day since the [Masked] team entered the fishing village.

In the original story, the fishing village operates on a three-day time cycle, meaning that the time erasure will begin today.

Hurry up.

Jiang Ye closed the system panel, looked up at the dark coastline in the distance, and heard the melodious sound of the tide.

On the other side of the coastline was a small fishing village, with a few lights still on.

Jiang Ye strode over.

Hu Hu Hu.

But before they had taken two steps, a strange sea breeze blew in, and the sound of waves crashing against the rocks became even louder.

Jiang Ye sensed something and slowly turned his head to look at the coastline.

On the coastline, a dark figure slowly appeared, gradually transforming from a black dot into a small black boat. An elderly man with gray hair, whose body was constantly changing and reforming, rowed the boat towards them.

Old Man Wang's Noodles.

Jiang Ye thought for a moment, then stepped onto the beach.

The elderly Wang Mian stopped there, and the two looked at each other.

"You will not be in the future," the old man said in a low voice.

Jiang Ye smiled and said, "I know."

The old king was silent for a moment, then continued, "I will send you away. In the future, you will not exist here."

Jiang Ye shook his head. "Don't you want to take a gamble? Maybe I can bring back your past self?"

"Your existence has already thrown my plans into disarray. If I cannot save Great Xia this time, I will no longer have the chance to return to my past lifespan."

Lifespan? You should have said so earlier!

Jiang Ye smiled faintly, flicked his fingertips, and a surge of immortal divine power merged into the body of the elderly King.

Ok?

Suddenly, the old man's gaunt and emaciated body gradually regained its youthful appearance, and his dry skin gradually became smooth.

A hint of surprise flickered in his cloudy eyes as he looked down at his body, somewhat incredulous.

Even the transformation of his body into Dao did not require the rewinding of the laws of time to automatically repair itself.

However, his mortal body was still unable to bear the power of the laws, and the transformation into the Dao continued.

"The power of immortality within you can be used a hundred times, allowing you to travel back in time at will."

Jiang Ye's tone was unusually calm, as if it were nothing serious.

???

But to the elderly King Mian, it was like a bolt from the blue.

No way, buddy, are you cheating?
