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

Underworld.

The sky was obscured by pitch-black clouds, not a ray of light could be seen, and the oppressive atmosphere made it hard to breathe.

A wide River Styx meanders through the area, its waters an eerie blood red, and it even makes a low, whimpering sound as it flows.

At the top of the River Styx, the enormous palace of the underworld looms in and out of sight.

A figure draped in a dark green robe slowly walked through the palace gates, his narrow gaze falling on the horrified woman.

"Hela, how are the preparations going?" Loki, the god of mischief, asked in a slightly sinister tone.

The woman, whose upper body shone with a dark glow, slowly nodded and pointed to a palace of twelve pale corpses not far away, beneath a dark red sky.

"The twelve city-destroying mountain corpses are ready, but are you sure Olympus will join forces with you to attack the border of Great Xia?" asked Hela, the goddess of the underworld.

Loki glanced at her, a sinister smile playing on his lips. "Just do your own thing and don't ask any more questions."

“…Alright.” Hela had no choice but to give up. As Loki’s daughter, she naturally supported her father’s wishes.

She changed the subject, saying, "By the way, during your three days in Olympus, the people you sent to monitor Thor reported that the Three Fates had contacted Thor."

Ok?

Loki abruptly turned to look at Hela, his expression extremely grim. "They've sided with Thor?"

"Probably not..." Hela shook her head. "After Thor met the three Fates, it seems that things didn't go very well between the two sides."

Loki had a bad feeling. If the three Fates sided with Thor, they would surely help Thor foresee the location of his wife.

Of all times, these three damned things had to happen at this time!

"Hela, move Thor's wife immediately..."

Click!

Before Loki could finish speaking, a bolt of lightning struck down from the dark red sky.

Lightning flashed across the sky amidst the dark clouds, and a dozen figures appeared and disappeared in the gloomy heavens.

“Sol! Nordic Command…” Hela’s expression changed drastically.

Loki's gaze gradually darkened as he stared at Thor, who held Mjolnir, at the center of the lightning flashing in the sky.

"Loki!" Thor roared, bathed in lightning, "Hand over Sif!"

……

Deep within the ancient sacred mountain.

The cute girl, playing with her braids, rested her hands on the edge of the jade platform, curiously observing Lin Qiye lying on it.

"Sister, why isn't he awake yet?"

The goddess Urd frowned. "In his past... there was a very powerful being."

“Who is it?” Verdandi asked.

“I can sense it, but I can’t see it clearly, and it’s strange that there are other people in his past.” Urd stared at Lin Qiye with puzzled eyes.

A person's past includes their growth experiences, emotional experiences, interests, pursuits, and so on—all of which are related to that person.

But this human in front of her could see these options of another person, as if one person were experiencing different lives.

This was so strange; she had never encountered anything like it before when she peered into the past.

"Sister, sister, he's awake!"

As Verdandi and Urd pondered, Lin Qiye, who was lying on the jade, slowly opened his eyes.

hum!

The moment he opened his eyes, a fluctuation of special power emanated from him.

Verdandi and Urd's pupils suddenly contracted.

"It's him, that powerful being from humanity's past!" Urd sensed the terrifying aura and stared intently at the jade stone beside him.

There, the void seemed to have been torn apart by an invisible hand, forming a deep, dark crack.

A figure slowly emerged from the crack.

He emerged from the crack, his deep eyes seemingly holding a thousand stars, and his thin lips slightly upturned beneath his high, straight nose.

It seemed like a cold laugh, yet also like a gentle, warm smile.

Jiang Ye's gaze swept over the three wary goddesses of fate and landed on Lin Qiye, who sat up from the jade stone and stared blankly at his unharmed body.

He slowly breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Verdandi, and said with a smile, "You didn't kill him. Please believe me, this is the best decision you've ever made in your life."

Although she spoke with a smile, it sent a chill down the spines of Verdandi and Urd.

As for the future goddess Skadi... she stared blankly at Jiang Ye, then curiously ran to his side, "Big brother, watch closely, can you play hide-and-seek with me?"

"..." Jiang Ye glanced down at the innocent and naive Skadi, and reached out to pat her head. "You go play first. Your sisters and I have something to talk about."

"I'll play with you after we've finished talking."

"Really? Yeah!"

Skuld ran excitedly to the side.

The other two goddesses twitched their lips slightly upon seeing this, but also felt a sense of relief.

The person who doesn't get angry even when facing a child like Skadi must be easy to talk to.

"May I ask who you are?" Urde asked hesitantly.

It wasn't that she was afraid, but rather that this fear was involuntary; it was a kind of fear that existed between different levels of life.

Jiang Ye shook his head. "Don't worry about it. I just came to help him solve some trouble."

Upon hearing this, the two goddesses looked at Lin Qiye on the jade stone and felt a sense of relief.

Fortunately, he didn't kill anyone at the time, otherwise it would have been true Ragnarok.

Lin Qiye stood up from the jade, looked at Jiang Ye, and silently gave him a thumbs up.

His appearance alone stunned all three goddesses of fate.

By the way, why not take this opportunity to ask the future goddess to help awaken Jialan? After all, this is also part of Zuo Qing's mission.

Lin Qiye looked at Jiang Ye, "Can I make a request of them?"

"any request?"

"Commander Zuo instructed us to have the Goddess of the Future help Garan awaken."

Jiang Ye frowned slightly upon hearing the first half of the sentence, but his brows gradually relaxed upon hearing the second half.

"Sure," he said casually.

Then, turning to Verdandi and Urd, she asked, "You arrested my captain, so it's not unreasonable for you to make some demands, is it?"

The two goddesses froze for a moment.

Just as Urd was about to refuse, Verdandi stopped her and shook her head.

"Tell us your thoughts first, and we'll accept them if we can."

“One of my team members has fallen into a deep sleep for some reason, and we need to control time acceleration to help him wake up, so I want to ask the future goddess to go to Great Xia to help with this,” Lin Qiye explained.

“No, you can bring her here, but Skadi will never go to Great Xia!” Upon hearing this, Urd refused decisively.

Verdandy frowned and shook her head. "I'm sorry, we did let Thor capture you, but we didn't hurt you."

"We cannot agree to Skuld's request to go to Great Xia."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qiye sighed, glanced at the innocent and naive Skadi to the side, and said nothing more.

He turned to look at Jiang Ye, "Let's just say..."

"You don't seem to understand yet; it seems I need to explain it to you."

Jiang Ye slowly took a step forward, staring at the two goddesses, releasing an aura of half-step dimensional ascension, his tone cold.

"I'm not here to reason with you. You only have one choice: to obey."
