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

The nation's destiny lies on an island, deep within.

In the long river formed by the national destiny of the Great Xia Dynasty, six figures gathered under the giant tree of national destiny.

On the giant tree, a golden dragon formed from the nation's destiny coils amidst the torrent.

"The Celestial Venerable of All Manifestations wants to resurrect us? What is his purpose?"

After listening to the Marquis and Gongyang Wan's account, Nie Jinshan, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, asked in bewilderment.

Gongyang Wan shook her head gracefully, "Not only that, but it also allows us, after our resurrection, to control the fate of the nation. Furthermore..."

Her gaze fell on Tang Yusheng, who didn't seem very interested, and she slowly said, "The Celestial Venerable also said that he could revive... the deceased Bai Ze."

thump—

Upon hearing this, Tang Yusheng's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes widened instantly.

He slowly raised his head to look at Gongyang Wan, who was dressed in court attire, and asked incredulously, "Really...really?"

Gongyang Wan nodded.

This stunned Nie Jinshan, Li Kengqiang, and Wang Qing, who knew that Bai Ze had been dead for nearly 50 years.

They naturally knew that the Celestial Venerable of Myriad Manifestations had saved the Great Xia from danger twice, but such methods were truly astonishing.

"You need not doubt it, I have already contacted Ye Fan, who is cultivating with Jin Chanzi."

The silent Huo Qubing suddenly spoke: "Both [Blue Rain] and [Spirit Medium] were resurrected by the Celestial Venerable of Myriad Manifestations."

After these words were spoken, everyone present fell silent for a moment.

The somewhat old-fashioned Nie Jinshan frowned and said, "But the Celestial Venerable of Myriad Manifestations must have a reason for doing this."

“The Heavenly Venerable… no, the one above all the gods in the Heavenly Court, how can we possibly fathom His thoughts?” Gongyang Wan sighed.

“Indeed.” Wang Qing nodded. “Moreover, the existence of the Celestial Venerable will definitely affect the training camp of [Nightfall] if we do not agree.”

"The task that Yuanshi Tianzun gave us is probably difficult to complete."

These words made everyone fall into deep thought.

If we agree to the request of the Celestial Venerable of All Things, the [Heroic Spirits] team can be resurrected and continue to control the fate of the Great Xia Dynasty, so it seems there is no loss.

However, if a war of national destiny breaks out in the future, the combat power of the physical [Heroic Spirit] squad will likely be limited.

But if they don't agree, what will the Celestial Venerable of Myriad Manifestations do on the island of national destiny?

Those who are called 'seniors' by the gods of Heaven must have come to the National Fortune Island for more than just accompanying [Nightfall] for training.

Furthermore, given that all the gods in Heaven are so wary of the 'Myriad Manifestations Celestial Venerable,' their choices must be even more cautious.

"My lord, you decide," Gongyang Wan said, looking at Huo Qubing.

The others exchanged glances and slowly nodded.

Huo Qubing pondered for a moment, then looked up at everyone and said, "Agree. It's not a bad thing for us."

He looked at Tang Yusheng with a smile, "You should also meet... your mother whom you've never met before."

Tang Yusheng was slightly taken aback and lowered his head.

Everyone present knew that when the Celestial Venerable of All Things proposed this resurrection, they had no choice.

A figure even higher than the Great Heavenly Venerable, controlling the rise and fall, life and death of countless weaklings. The consequences of refusing are something they cannot bear, nor dare to touch, even if the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerable does not say so.

"Alright, you can go back now."

After a moment's hesitation, Nie Jinshan, Wang Qing, and the others slowly walked out of the River of Fate.

After the four left, Gongyang Wan spoke up, "Did we overestimate the Heavenly Venerable? Perhaps He was just giving us a choice?"

Huo Qubing glanced at her and said calmly, "You know Jialan?"

Gongyang Wan nodded.

"When Yuanshi Tianzun arranged for us to place An Qingyu under the pretext of intensive training, he also said something."

"what?"

Huo Qubing gazed at the end of the long river of national destiny, saying, "The temple can be trusted, but the Heavenly Venerable of All Things cannot."

Gongyang Wan's pupils contracted slightly, and she fell silent.

……

On the beach.

The golden sunset was reflected on the sea, and the shimmering waves rippled and lapped against the beach.

On the beach, a campfire slowly rose, its flickering light reflecting on the faces of the eight people surrounding it.

"Brother Zhai! Holy crap, weren't you supposed to be guarding Chennan Pass?!" Baili Pangpang ran over in surprise and hugged Shen Qingzhu tightly.

"Brother Zhai, I missed you so much..."

Shen Qingzhu frowned slightly and pressed down on Baili Pangpang's chest. "So cheesy, get out of here."

"Hehe, I just missed you so much." Baili Pangpang scratched his head.

At that moment, the others also came over.

"Brother Zhai, what brings you here?" An Qingyu asked.

Shen Qingzhu patted her clothes. "I snuck here, so you're not allowed to report me."

After he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Jiang Ye, who was in spirit form to the side.

Shen Qingzhu's expression immediately became complicated as she stepped forward to stand in front of Jiang Ye.

"Brother Zhai, long time no see." Jiang Ye slowly extended his hand and said with a smile.

Shen Qingzhu's eyes widened slightly, her lips curled up, and as she grasped Jiang Ye's hand, she gave him a brotherly hug.

"It's been a long time...not to see you." His tone was tinged with sadness.

Seeing this, Baili Pangpang couldn't help but curl his lip, "Double standards..."

Seeing this, Lin Qiye snatched the camera from Baili Pangpang's hand, "Come on, everyone's here, let's take a group photo."

Taking advantage of the situation, they separated Jiang Ye and Shen Qingzhu and discussed their positions.

"Jialan, you stand with Jiang Er."

Seeing Jialan standing beside him, Lin Qiye spoke.

Jialan frowned slightly. "Why?"

Lin Qiye hesitated for a moment, "You're too short, I'm afraid you won't be able to get a good shot of your face."

Garan: "..."

The others couldn't help but facepalm upon hearing these outrageously blunt words from a straight man.

"Alright, alright, look at the camera." At this moment, Baili Pangpang, who had finished setting up the camera, ran over quickly.

His obese body squeezed directly between Jialan and Jiang Er, like a bowling ball, instantly disrupting their positions.

"Three, two, one, eggplant!"

Click!

In the afterglow of the setting sun, a photograph slowly emerges from the bottom of the camera.
