The Great Xia capital, the headquarters of the Night Watch.

Under the scorching summer sun, towering buildings stand all around.

A man and a woman walked towards the office building.

"Leng Xuan, the headquarters suddenly summoned us back. I have a feeling something's not amiss."

Wearing a blue cloak, the petite and slender Si Xiaonan slightly raised her head to look at Leng Xuan, who was wearing a special forces uniform and was a head taller than her.

The latter looked slightly thoughtful, glanced at his superior Xiao Nan, and smiled faintly.

"We are the Night Watchmen, and also soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty. Obeying orders is our duty."

Si Xiaonan took a deep breath and nodded slightly.

But she still looked puzzled. She and Leng Xuan had originally been assigned to the war fortress.

The secret purges in inland cities were all handed over to the newly appointed Night Watchmen.

Although she was the agent of the gods, Leng Xuan didn't even have a forbidden area.

Even if headquarters wants to send someone on a mission, they will likely consider the issue of capability.

Despite this disparity in strength, they were both recalled.

This left Si Xiaonan, who was acting as an agent of the God of Deception, feeling puzzled.

The two entered the office building and took the elevator to the 5th floor.

This is not the Commander-in-Chief's office, but a large lounge.

"You are here."

Zuo Qing, draped in a dark red cloak, walked slowly over, seemingly to greet him on purpose.

Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan gave a military salute in unison, and then followed Zuo Qing into the lounge.

The interior is simply furnished, with calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls and a tea table in the center.

Two people sat on either side of the coffee table: one was an elderly man with a sage-like demeanor, and the other had his head covered by a large cloak, so that his face was not visible.

Si Xiaonan looked even more puzzled and asked Zuo Qing, "Commander Zuo, why did you summon us back...?"

"Please sit down. This is your great-grandfather. He's the one who's looking for you." Zuo Qing looked at the elderly man with a venerable and otherworldly air.

The old man nodded slightly, with a friendly smile.

Taigong? Jiang Ziya.

Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan exchanged a glance, their faces showing surprise.

In the mythology of the Xia Dynasty, Jiang Ziya was a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Grandpa."

The two bowed and sat down.

Jiang Ziya nodded slightly, poured two cups of tea for the two of them, and then slowly spoke.

"I've called you here today because I have an important matter to entrust to you."

"What is it?" Leng Xuan asked.

Jiang Ziya looked at the person opposite him who had concealed his face and said, "Ever since the Celestial Venerable challenged Norse mythology and Odin fled, Asgard has been embroiled in a battle for the title of God-King."

"Do you know that those two are vying for the title of God-King?"

“There should be Thor, as for the other one…” Si Xiaonan shook his head.

Jiang Ziya took a sip of tea and looked at Si Xiaonan, "The other one is Loki, the god of mischief."

Loki!

Upon hearing this name, Si Xiaonan's hands clenched instantly, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

The pain of being tortured by Loki in the past resurfaced in her mind once again.

Snapped!

Suddenly a hand patted her shoulder, and Leng Xuan smiled and shook his head.

Si Xiaonan looked into Leng Xuan's eyes, and her emotions gradually calmed down.

"So, what do you want to tell me, Grandfather?" Leng Xuan asked.

Jiang Ziya put down his teacup. "Just yesterday, Loki, the god of mischief, suddenly announced that he would break through to the highest level in Asgard's Miracle Square in ten days."

"The Celestial Venerable suspects that Loki stole the Yaochi Sacred Land's secret treasure last time, intending to use it to break through to the Supreme Realm."

"Therefore, I want to send you to Asgard to slay Loki, the god of mischief, and retrieve the treasures of the Jade Pool Holy Land."

As Jiang Ziya spoke, his gaze fell on Si Xiaonan. "I believe that no one understands Loki better than you."

Si Xiaonan was taken aback, but quickly discovered the loophole in the mission.

She only has the strength of 'Klein', and Leng Xuan is only at the Sea Realm level. How can they fight against a God of Deception who is at the peak of the main god level and is extremely difficult to kill?

Isn't this just sending them to their deaths?

"But Grandfather, our strength..."

"Don't worry about that." Jiang Ziya interrupted her, looked at the silent person beside him, and introduced, "This person will accompany you."

Upon hearing this, Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan both looked at the person whose face was covered.

Those deep, dark eyes slowly opened, emitting a hoarse voice.

"Hello, I am the God of Shadows and Assassins. You can call me '27'."

……

Above the clouds on the border of the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Yelland, aren't you going too far?" Baili Pangpang asked, frowning as he looked at the kind old man in front of him.

Yeland sighed and said in a deep voice, "With just you and me, we simply cannot stop him from destroying the Dream Cycle."

"Only by telling the Heavenly Court the secrets of this world can Lin Qiye smoothly pass through this dream cycle."

"You should know that if assimilation fails, the efforts of hundreds of millions of cycles will be in vain."

"Even Lin Qiye will be completely devoured by Azathoth."

Yeland looked at Baili Pangpang, "Lingbao, we can't let him continue like this."

“We don’t know why he appeared in this cycle of reincarnation, nor do we know where he came from. We can’t gamble with Lin Qiye’s life.”

Baili Pangpang frowned and slowly clenched his fist, saying, "I understand what you're saying, but you haven't experienced the cycle of reincarnation, so you can't see his feelings for Lin Qiye."

"It's a kind of genuine feeling that he would never hurt Lin Qiye, no matter what the future holds."

"I can help you get the dream cycle back on track, but please don't treat him as an enemy."

Yeland nodded with a complicated expression. "As long as he doesn't harm Lin Qiye, I can agree to your request."

"You and Cao Yuan should go to Utopia. I've already taken care of Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan. I made a deal with the God of Shadows and Assassins, and he will protect them."

Baili Pangpang nodded slightly and disappeared into the clouds.

Yeland gazed at the azure sky and sighed, "I also hope that we and him... will never be enemies."
