Chapter 1740 Anomalous Arrival
After a long time, Jialan finally loosened her grip slightly, her cheeks completely flushed.
“I… I just… wasn’t… oh my!”
She looked at Lin Qiye before her, suddenly realizing what she had just done. She stammered for a while, unable to form a complete sentence, and finally simply lowered her head, avoiding Lin Qiye’s gaze.
At that moment, Lin Qiye gently took Jialan’s hands, startling her into looking up.
Lin Qiye was gazing at her, his eyes filled with unprecedented seriousness:
“Jialan, marry me.”
These words echoed in Jialan’s mind, causing her body to tremble slightly.
Sealed in the coffin for over two thousand years, surrounded only by its cold walls, she would have given up long ago if not for that promise made years ago.
She had countless times recalled her travels with Lin Qiye that year, countless times imagined what future they would face after the coffin was opened… but what she imagined most was the scene of Lin Qiye proposing to her.
And now, this moment was happening right before her eyes… in a place she never expected, in a way she never imagined.
Jialan was about to agree immediately, but then thought it might make her seem too casual, so she pretended to be deep in contemplation. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly as she recalled all the saddest things in her life, barely managing to suppress the smile at the corners of her mouth.
Seeing Jialan hesitate, Lin Qiye was bewildered… and from her expression, it seemed she wasn’t considering whether to accept, but rather how to save the universe.
After a moment, Jialan’s brow relaxed.
“Alright! I accept!”
Seeing Jialan’s triumphant smile, Lin Qiye couldn’t help but feel both amused and exasperated.
“When are we getting married?” Jialan asked eagerly.
“Once this turmoil is over, I’ll prepare the wedding as soon as we return.”
“Will it be lively?”
“Of course.” Lin Qiye pointed to the distance, “We’ll have the Sword Saint as matchmaker, the gods of Great Xia as witnesses, invite all the Night Watchers, and ask the Queen Mother for several hundred peaches of immortality… how does that sound?”
“Several hundred peaches? Will she give them to us?”
“Times have changed. If she doesn’t, I’ll go with Brother Monkey to steal—no, to request them.”
Pfft—
Jialan couldn’t help but laugh.
“It’s a promise then, no going back on your word.”
Lin Qiye thought for a moment, then his fingertip traced through the void, causing a fragment of star core to fall into his palm. It visibly melted and reformed, finally transforming into a deep red ring.
At the same time, a thread of causality connecting him and Jialan was manipulated by [Causeless Cause] to wrap around the ring, becoming circles of white patterns, elegant and mysterious.
“Since this is a proposal, there naturally should be a ring,” Lin Qiye slowly placed the deep red ring on Jialan’s finger, saying softly,
“Aren’t you always worried that I won’t keep my word? This ring carries the causality between you and me. Once you wear it, it becomes part of [Immortality]… also representing the eternal, unchanging vow between us.”
Jialan gently raised her hand, looking at the ring that glimmered with mysterious light in the deep void, momentarily entranced.
“Good! I’ll accept it then!” Jialan withdrew her hand, her eyes full of joy.
“Old Dog Wu doesn’t need help, and Gongyang Wan and Fate Monk are about to finish their enemies… let’s go help the Great Xia gods.” Lin Qiye’s gaze swept across the battlefield.
“Let’s win quickly! Go home for the wedding quickly! Have children quickly!”
Jialan pumped her fist, her fighting spirit bursting forth as she rushed toward the distant battlefield!
…
In the chaotic divine battlefield, a massive demon ape wielding a golden cudgel smashed it toward a point in the void!
Under the gaze of those burning golden eyes, an invisible giant wolf appeared, its ferocious fangs tearing open a rift in space, firmly biting down on the huge golden cudgel. Cracks spread across the cudgel’s surface!
“Yang Jian!”
Sun Wukong roared, and in the next moment, a three-pointed double-edged blade flashing with lightning struck the wolf’s body, leaving a shallow wound.
Sun Wukong took the opportunity to retrieve his golden cudgel, looking at the cracks on it with a pained expression.
“This creature is very strong, be extremely careful,” said Yang Jian in silver armor as he landed beside Sun Wukong.
Whoosh—!!
A golden light streaked across the sky, heading straight for the invisible giant wolf. The radiance of [Mortal Divine Domain] enveloped the battlefield as a six-winged Seraph wielding a giant sword came slashing down!
Lin Qiye and Jialan arrived at the battlefield right after, blocking the giant wolf’s escape routes from left and right. Seeing this, Sun Wukong’s eyes brightened.
“I knew that kid wouldn’t die so easily.”
“A Seraph?” Yang Jian looked at the six-winged avatar with some surprise.
“Michael died, so he naturally inherited the Seraph’s laws. Haven’t you noticed? His aura is different from before,” Sun Wukong’s fiery golden eyes observed Lin Qiye, his lips curving upward. “It seems he has gone further than any of us.”
Yang Jian’s gaze fell on the ring on Jialan’s finger, and he was momentarily stunned.
“Brother, you’re getting married?” he transmitted to Lin Qiye.
“Yes,” Lin Qiye smiled. “After this is over, remember to come to the wedding.”
Hearing these words, Yang Jian’s eyes filled with joy. While helping to surround the invisible giant wolf, he thought to himself:
Mother… do you see? Seventh brother is starting a family.
Under the five-directional encirclement, the invisible giant wolf’s space for movement grew increasingly limited. It swept its fierce gaze over everyone, cautiously retreating… Even so, the golden sword light piercing through deep space continued to leave wounds on its body.
It roared at the Seraph Lin Qiye above, causing the surrounding space-time to distort.
It was Musishas, a being who had once challenged the [Key to the Door]. Among the dozen or so K-system gods who had descended, its battle prowess definitely ranked near the top, and its pride was the most arrogant. Now, being surrounded by beings it considered insignificant, its anger had been completely ignited.
Just as it was about to make a desperate move, it suddenly seemed to sense something and abruptly looked up. In its fierce eyes, fear actually appeared!
At the same time, a mysterious and majestic presence suddenly descended!
The spirit embryo Lin Qiye, who had been focused on controlling his avatar, was startled and looked up. Above this deep space battlefield, a rotating space-time vortex was rapidly forming, and a familiar aura surged from within…
The moment he sensed this aura, Lin Qiye’s expression changed drastically.
“[Key to the Door]?!”
