Godslayer: The Progenitor of Symbiotes

"Captain, it's been a week already, when will Xiaoshu and Qiye be back?"

Hongying sat on the sofa, swinging her legs listlessly.

Da da da……

Amidst the sound of chopping vegetables, Chen Muyi, busy at work, took a moment to reply: "What's the rush? It's only been a week. The Master said it would take at least half a year."

"Ugh, why is it taking so long?" Hongying slumped on the sofa, bored, and looked up at the ceiling.

Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, Hongying called out to the kitchen, "Captain, I'll go check if the hammer has been taken."

Chen Muyi quickly poked his head out and spoke before Hongying left, "We're about to eat, don't go, it's impossible for someone to take it."

Hongying looked at Chen Muye and tentatively said, "...I'll be back soon."

Chen Muye shook his head. "No."

"Fine..." Hongying, feeling utterly hopeless, plopped back down on the sofa.

……

The battle for the gods in Cangnan ended a week ago.

Master Chen and Lu Wuwei, two of the most outstanding talents in humanity, rushed to Thor's side immediately after receiving a signal from Qi Jingchun.

He took the Law Bead that was wrapped around Chen Shu, while keeping an eye on Thor to prevent him from posing another threat to Cangnan.

On the other side, after successfully killing Loki, Lin Qiye had another conversation with that gentle voice in his mind.

The gist of their conversation was as follows.

If Chen Shu and the golden bead formed from the "Thunder Law" are not interfered with by external forces, they will cause great damage to the surrounding environment.

Under the circumstances at the time, it was only thanks to Qi Jingchun's intervention that the object was temporarily isolated from the elements, thus preventing any impact on the surrounding environment.

However, Qi Jingchun's time is running out. If no one intervenes in the time that follows, those are fragments of the laws of two main gods, and the outcome is predictable.

At that time, Qi Jingchun had this question: "If you agree, it will take you at least half a year. For us cultivators, it may not be much, but for you, there are so many things you can do in half a year."

At that time, Lin Qiye agreed to the matter without hesitation.

Qi Jingchun smiled and replied, "This is not a simple matter. Although your 'miracle' power can prevent the 'power of law' from dissipating, it also requires you to maintain the output of your mental energy at all times."

"Aren't you...aren't you afraid of getting tired?"

Lin Qiye nodded decisively, his gaze firm. "Mr. Qi, there's no need to ask anymore. I have no way to repay the kindness you and Chen Shu have shown me. I must agree to this."

"Alright, you don't need to worry about falling behind in your cultivation. Although this is tiring, it is also a kind of training for you and will be beneficial to your cultivation."

After agreeing to the request, Lin Qiye quickly headed to the Peace Agency.

Meanwhile, Master Chen and Lu Wuwei were already waiting at the firm.

After a brief exchange, Lin Qiye and Thor left with the two ceiling-level figures.

To ensure safety, the place Lin Qiye was taken to was the most heavily guarded place in the Great Xia territory—the Fasting Place.

Those who know about this are only the Phoenix Squad, Squad 136, Shenli, Fentian, and two top-tier individuals.

Saul will be imprisoned in a fasting facility on this trip, so there's no need to mention him.

Finally, there was Ye Fan, the commander-in-chief of the Great Xia Night Watch, who learned of the incident afterward.

As a secret of the Night Watch, the official explanation was that Lin Qiye had injured his soul in the war of gods and was being treated at the Sunshine Mental Hospital in the fasting quarters.

Chen Shu's file has not yet been recovered by the Night's Watch, so there is no need for the Night's Watch to explain.

……

In this battle of gods, the Great Xia Dynasty made a name for itself. An "unparalleled being" who did not belong to the gods made a move and separated two "thunder laws".

This led to Indra being killed by Master Chen, the pinnacle of humanity in the Great Xia Dynasty, and Thor being imprisoned.

This battle made the Outer Gods wary.

Yang Jian, Xiaotianquan, Hou Yi, and Jinchan Dafashi, the four gods who had recovered the most completely, did not make a move.

Even if they try to pull some tricks, the Great Xia gods will intervene and make them bleed again.

……

Shangjing.

The Night Watchmen are stationed at the 006 Squad's base in Shangjing City.

"Uncle Yuan, I've made up my mind. I want to join the Night Watch." Qin Xue stood in front of the desk, looking earnestly at Yuan Gang.

Yuan Gang frowned slightly. "Qin Xue, I also really want you to join the Night Watch, but you should know that your Forbidden Ruins are very special. If Chen Shu comes back, he will definitely not agree to let you join the Night Watch."

As Yuan Gang spoke, his eyes involuntarily glanced at the white expanse outside the window, and that one glance made his brows furrow even deeper.

That's right, it snowed in Beijing in October, and it was a heavy blizzard.

Of course, this is definitely not a normal phenomenon.

Four days ago, on the night of [date missing].

The weather was overcast that day, and it was pouring rain in the capital.

Suddenly, a phantom image of a real dragon appeared instantly, paused for a moment, and then soared into the sky!

Its imposing presence and majesty were no less than those of the awakened Divine Ruins.

Yuan Gang is reviewing documents in his office at the recruit training camp in Beijing.

Within those few short seconds, the temperature in the entire city of Beijing plummeted to below zero, and the raindrops in the sky instantly turned into ice particles.

After the dragon disappeared, it snowed heavily in the capital for two consecutive days.

After a search by Squad 006, it was finally confirmed that the awakened one in the forbidden ruins was Qin Xue.

It wasn't that Yuan Gang was afraid of Chen Shu, but if a guy who dared to go head-to-head with Thor came back and found out that Qin Xue had joined the Night's Watch, he would be furious.

"It's nothing. I've only heard about them going missing. They're probably all dead." Shao Pingge, who was lying on a recliner with his legs crossed and looking nonchalant, said casually.

Clang——!

A crisp sound of a long sword being drawn rang out, and the swordsman who had been quietly waiting by the door stepped out, instantly unleashing the pressure of the "Chuan" realm from his body.

A touch of black and white color enveloped the entire room in the blink of an eye, making the people inside seem as if they were in a traditional Chinese ink painting.

"Uncle Shao!" Qin Xue looked at Shao Pingge with displeasure, "You're not allowed to talk about Brother Chen Shu like that, he will definitely come back..."

Perhaps because she herself lacked confidence, Qin Xue's voice gradually weakened as she finished speaking.

A burst of golden light erupted, instantly shattering the ink-wash ripples. Yuan Gang said in a deep voice, "This is the Night Watch 006 squad's base, not a place for you to run wild."

"Want to fight?" The swordsman's gaze beneath his bamboo hat remained completely calm as he spoke.

Having a symbiotic offspring within him, he naturally knew that Chen Shu was still alive, only temporarily out of contact.

Moreover, a week ago, when the divine power came to deliver the items, it clearly indicated that Chen Shu would be even stronger when he returned.

Shao Pingge got up from the recliner, yawned, and said listlessly, "Alright, alright, it was just a joke, it's not that serious. Yuan Gang, you too, try to joke less in the future."

"?" Yuan Gang looked at Shao Pingge speechlessly, unable to utter a word for a long time.
