After the Queen Mother of the West's figure completely disappeared, Galan continued to kneel on the ground in silence, not getting up for a long time.

Looking at the blue-clothed figure abandoned in front of the Dan Palace, everyone felt helpless. Although Jia Lan had not been with them for a long time, this girl was indeed very likable. They didn't know what happened, they only knew that Jia Lan seemed to have been expelled from Yao Chi because of Lin Qiye...

Suddenly, they looked at Lin Qiye with unfriendly eyes, as if they were looking at a scumbag.

Lin Qiye let out a long sigh and walked in front of Galan. A tearful face suddenly came into his sight.

"Do you hate me?" Lin Qiye asked softly.

Jia Lan glared at him fiercely, and smashed Lin Qiye's chest with a white fist, crying:

"I told you not to save me, not to save me... but you took the opportunity to stuff the immortal pill into my mouth! Now, even the queen doesn't want me anymore! You bastard, bastard, bastard, bastard..."

Galan's fists rained down on Lin Qiye. Lin Qiye did not dodge and just let Galan punch him for a long time without saying a word.

After a while, Galan looked down at his fist which had turned red from the shock and cried even more sadly.

"Are you relieved?" Lin Qiye asked.

"No!" Jia Lan wiped his tears, punched Lin Qiye again, and silently put his twitching hands behind his back.

"I know you gave me the Immortality Pill to save me... But I am just a Pearl Soul. My mission is to serve the Queen. Apart from occasionally accompanying the Queen to shoot arrows to relieve her boredom, I can't even fight well. How can I bear such an important thing...

Now, the Queen doesn’t want me anymore, Yao Chi doesn’t want me either… I am completely alone.”

Looking at Jia Lan's red eyes, Lin Qiye suddenly felt guilty...

The current Galan is just a pearl soul nurtured by the Queen Mother of the West. Strictly speaking, the Queen Mother of the West is her mother, and she is just an ignorant girl who has not experienced the world and can be easily deceived and sold to a brothel.

Because of herself, the Queen Mother of the West expelled Galan. This is the same as if her daughter went out to hang out with street thugs and got pregnant, and her parents found out and kicked her out of the house, severing the mother-daughter relationship.

The one who felt the most aggrieved was Galan, she had no intention of elopement at all!

But Lin Qiye had no choice... He couldn't just watch Jia Lan die in front of him, right?

He answered subconsciously, "It's okay, they don't want you, I want you."

After saying this, Lin Qiye wanted to slap himself, and felt more and more that he was a scumbag who deceived an ignorant girl.

Jia Lan glared at him unhappily, then staggered to his feet, "It's all your fault... You must be responsible! At least... at least help me find a job in the human world where I can eat my fill!"

Hearing this, Lin Qiye's mouth twitched wildly, he forced himself to suppress his smile, and asked calmly:

"Anything else you want?"

Jia Lan thought about it carefully, "Yes! I won't do the kind of job that requires me to wear only a little bit of clothes and dance in the crowd!"

“…Okay.” Lin Qiye turned around and kept massaging his cheek muscles that were about to cramp. He took two deep breaths before calming down.

Lin Qiye walked towards the crowd not far away and was about to say something, but found that they were all looking at him with strange expressions.

"What's wrong?"

"When do you plan to marry her?" Zhan Yuwu asked seriously.

Lin Qiye was at a loss, "What?"

"What? Still trying to quibble?" Chloe raised her head, with an expression that showed she had seen through everything, "The first time I saw you two together, I felt that there was something wrong with the way you looked at that girl. You clearly fell in love with her!

"Speak! Did you deliberately set a trap for others to be expelled from Yaochi so that you could take advantage of the opportunity and sneak in?"

"Brother Qiye, I understand that a gentleman is looking for a good woman, but you have come this far. It will be difficult to end it if you don't get married." Yan Zhong advised earnestly, "You don't just want to have fun, do you?"

"Scum." Gong Yangwan said coldly.

Lin Qiye: ...

"I, I didn't say I won't marry her..." Lin Qiye glanced at Jia Lan who was wiping tears in the distance, and said softly, "Anyway, let's put this matter aside for now, business is more important... You guys help guard the Marquis here, I'll go find the Queen Mother of the West."

"What to do?" asked Zhan Yuwu.

"Have you forgotten what we are here for?" Lin Qiye pointed at the willow branches beside him. "Now in the Han Dynasty, there is only one god left, the Queen Mother. Without her help, how can we kill Kusuen?"

"That's right...but you just pissed her off and left. Is it appropriate to go look for her again now?"

"Don't worry." Lin Qiye turned his head and looked into the distance, "She... is the Queen Mother of the West."

…

Yaochi, the sleeping palace.

The Queen Mother of the West stood on the ruins, her eyes slowly sweeping across the bloody ground below. In addition to the rotten willow branches, the corpses of heavenly soldiers were laid out on the ground. Her hands were clenched tightly, and a hint of guilt appeared on her face.

Just then, a figure appeared behind her.

"What's the matter?" Queen Mother Xi asked in a deep voice.

"My Lady, although the Yaochi Rebellion has been resolved, the willow tree's original body is still near Kunlun Mountain..."

"That monster destroyed my Yaochi. I must kill it." A fierce murderous intent burst out from the eyes of the Queen Mother of the West, and her voice became deeper and deeper. "This matter is a grudge between gods. Mortals like you don't need to interfere."

“My queen, this god of Ke comes from outside the world. Their strength cannot be underestimated. Your chances of winning are extremely low if you rely on yourself alone.” Lin Qiye said solemnly, “Now that the Heavenly Court is outside the domain, if you die, no one in this world will be able to kill that monster. Please think of all living beings in the world and don’t act rashly!”

Hearing this, the murderous intent in Queen Mother Xi's eyes quickly calmed down. She frowned and thought for a moment, then turned to look at Lin Qiye.

"What do you want to do?"

"Leave the task of hunting down Kusuen to us. Once we have severely injured him, Your Majesty will then take action to kill him. This is the safest strategy."

"Do you want me to hide behind you mortals?"

“Mortals are no weaker than gods. If you don’t believe me, do you dare to fight me?” Lin Qiye’s voice was extremely calm.

Hearing this, Queen Mother Xi's eyes fixed. She frowned and stared at Lin Qiye for a long time before slowly shaking her head:

"I have had enough of the same kind killing each other... Since you have a plan, I will follow your will."

Queen Mother of the West stretched out her hand and handed the Kunlun Mirror to Lin Qiye. "You carry this mirror with you. At the critical moment, I will take action."

"Thank you for your help, madam."

Lin Qiye respectfully put away the Kunlun Mirror and was about to leave when the Queen Mother of the West's voice sounded again:

"etc."

Lin Qiye looked back in confusion.

Queen Mother Xi hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked into the ruins of her bedroom, from which she took out a pale yellow hardwood bow.

"Please pass this bow and arrow to Galan on my behalf."
