Arad's unruly savior

Chapter 3859 What is Tacit Understanding?
Hunting down the blind and foolish fourth son!?
Ye Lin realized that Bubble's serious expression meant he wasn't joking. He had used his knowledge and authority in the outer universe to glimpse a secret through the god-turned-god Nordens.

So your family is truly "kind and filial"? All the previous guesses and foolish words were just illusory speculations. No matter how harsh your words were, you never actually fought.

Now, Bubble is all high and mighty, his eyes cold, and he's about to make a move against his new generation of "uncles"—a blatant act of treason.

Bubble continued:

"The ouroboros is about to loosen its grip, and the hidden truth will come to light. But if we wait until then, it will probably be too late. The sudden birth of the fourth child must be suspicious."

Shub Nicholas, standing to the side, looked on incredulously at the girl Bubble, her eyes filled with suspicion. She wondered if Bubble had suddenly lost her mind and was talking about something dangerous.

After this dead ball made its way to the primordial universe, it turned its back on the world, and did so quite drastically, attempting to harm its newly born "Fourth Uncle," its eyes blazing with murderous intent.

“Ha…you are truly audacious. Do you even know what you’re saying? Throughout history, you are probably the first to dare to directly offend the majesty of blind folly and attack His bloodline.” Shub Nicholas shook her head.

Bubble remained expressionless and said, "Just don't report it. The truth will come out in the future, and you'll understand."

"I don't care." Shub shrugged slightly, her full breasts swaying precariously, exuding a sinful allure.

She genuinely had no intention of secretly reporting them to the Chaos Royal Court; in fact, she was quite interested to see what kind of trouble they could cause. The strongest god-turner in the original universe and one of the three pillar gods from the outer universe were about to commit a shocking crime.

"When you die, stay away from me, and don't let your blood splatter on me."

Something unexpected happened to Shub: a violent ripple arose from the depths of the Black Nebula, and a slippery tentacle reached out, its tip bound to a withered branch. The branch was a dead black color with clear wood grain.

The branch was handed to Ye Lin and given to him to hold.

“The Destructive Branch of the World-Destroying…!” Shub Nicholas was extremely surprised when she saw the branch. Why would Lord “Darkness” take out such a dangerous item that could cause even a god to perish, and it seemed like he was giving it to Night Forest for free?

His dark, deep eyes looked at Shub, and his deep voice, as if coming from the abyss, said:
"Blood ties, kinship, and ethics are all meaningless to that person. Just like your power of the Crimson Abyss can make any object, including stone, steel, and man-made objects, give birth to offspring, but have you ever valued them in the slightest?"

Upon hearing this, Shub's expression changed noticeably. Darkness was absolutely right; it was a revelation. She knew that the number of "life" created through her abilities was countless, enough to dazzle anyone. In a sense, they were all her children, yet she had never shown them any appreciation.

Because in her own eyes, since she was the one who created those twisted lives, then she was their master, the king to whom they should submit, who had the power of life and death, and who would eat her like a cookie when she was in a bad state.

People call her the goddess of abundance, the mother of all things, and use the sacred and radiant word "mother" to describe her, worship her, and support her. However, she has none of the tenderness and gentleness of a mother.

She had a good relationship with the darkness because there was no conflict of interest between them.

So the meaning of darkness is very straightforward. If you yourself cannot provide loving maternal care, why would you think that blind folly exists, and then have inexplicable fantasies about Him?

Is your brain really deranged?

There must be something wrong with the birth of the fourth son. The prophecy of the awakening dream may be true. When Azathoth fully awakens his will, all things in the universe will be destroyed in an instant, and can only survive in His memory... in the form of a fragment.

Blind folly has no mercy on us.

“But His heartbeat resolved the chain between the powers of decay and death,” Shub Nicholas said, frowning deeply.

“By chance,” Darkness replied.

…………

The void is eternally cold and desolate, and the stars are like luminous stones hanging in the sky, beautiful from afar but boring up close... This was Sirocco's previous assessment. She liked to bask in the sun but hated looking at the stars.

"They've gone mad, they've all gone mad." Shub Nicholas's beautiful face was now filled with a gloomy expression, and her full breasts heaved dramatically with her movements, making people dizzy.

Darkness instructed her and Ye Lin to search for the blind and foolish fourth child. If they had a bad feeling after finding out the truth, they were to work together to kill the fourth child and completely eliminate him.

It is predicted that the fourth son's strength is at most similar to that of the three pillar gods, and will not be too far beyond their capabilities. If the three of them attack with thunderous force and all their might, there is a considerable probability that they will directly cause the gods to perish.

She never expected that one day she would have to join forces with Ye Lin.

Bubble frowned, having had enough, and snapped, "Shut up! Aren't you annoying? You've been grumbling the whole way, as noisy as a grasshopper. Should I find a stick to strangle you?"

When adults catch grasshoppers for children to play with, they string the grasshoppers together with thin grass stems. The grasshoppers, whose bodies are pierced, will ooze green sap.

Night Forest has never seen what color Shub Nicholas's juice is.

"I am the only true form. Do you think I'm like you, with every ball being a true form, and it doesn't matter if hundreds or thousands die in a battle?" Shub felt fire spitting out from her forehead and couldn't help but glare at them angrily, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

In order to forcibly merge with the decaying power, she has always remained in her original form.

Although the methods by which the divine realm can revive are varied and bizarre—a drop of blood, a fragment of memory, a trace…—they might next target the blind and foolish fourth son. Will the divine realm's revival methods still be effective against that creator-level being?

"Then why don't you split off a bit of your true blood and release it into the original universe?"

If blind folly were to truly awaken completely, annihilating all living beings in an instant, leaving no peaceful place beyond the realms, turning it into a desolate wasteland, theoretically it wouldn't affect the original universe. There are two creators there, so they certainly wouldn't back down.

“Clever, that’s a good idea. Your wisdom and authority are quite capable.” Shub Nicholas nodded emphatically, a look of realization dawning on her face. She was indeed considering what to do after being killed; she needed to have a backup plan in case of any unforeseen circumstances.

Sending a drop of blood to the origin of the universe can indeed effectively prevent the extreme situation of complete extinction.

"Ye Lin, now that we're in the same boat, I don't know what you're up to, but I'm helping you, so I need your help too."

Shub-Niggurath waved her hand, unleashing a vast expanse of Crimson Abyss Light, constructing a magnificent seven-colored mist that filled the dark starry sky, transforming into a boundless ocean that engulfed her and Night Forest's figures.

Ye Lin almost instinctively tried to resist, as he was somewhat wary of the power of the Crimson Abyss. A few minutes later, the two figures slowly reappeared. Bubble looked at them and saw that they appeared to be completely normal, as if nothing had happened.

"Shub, you really gave away a drop of blood? Aren't you afraid of being cursed because of it?"

A drop of God's true blood, if it falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, can absolutely lead to cause and effect, and result in many targeted curses.

Ye Lin said, "That drop of blood was sent to a border region that I didn't even know about. Once she dies, she can be reborn by borrowing blood."

Shub Nicholas lifted her skirt slightly, her eyes sparkling with allure, and smiled:
"What I gave him was my precious virgin blood."

"Heh, although your bitchy, slutty vibe is to my liking, do you think I'll believe your nonsense?" Bubble sneered, not believing a word of it.

"How can you be so sure I'm lying?" Shub gently pressed her hand against her lower abdomen, as if she felt a little pain there.

"Because, well... his durability isn't that short."

…………

The sudden, terrifying pressure stemming from blind folly was sensed by the gods beyond the realm, but they were unaware that the truth was the fourth son, and thus made a series of guesses.

Some believe it is a sign that blind folly is gradually awakening, and that the sleeping Creator is about to regain His full authority.

Even more surprisingly, some gods discovered the legendary Chaos Royal Court, a place beyond all order, meaning, and logic, where majestic traces were revealed. Thus, some gods began to find ways to worship the Chaos Royal Court.

The "Shagai" insectoid race, who worship bubbles, also fanatically worships the great blind folly. After the oppression, they began to frantically build pyramid-shaped structures to express their respect for Him. These structures were built on the earth, on high mountains, and in the deep sea.

Ye Lin watched as a brilliant figure swept through the darkness. It was an ancient ruler of the divine realm, exuding a terrifying aura, heading towards the legendary Chaos Royal Court.

"The direction we're heading in is correct, but it doesn't necessarily mean we'll reach the true Chaos Royal Court. Even the gods would get lost there," Shub Nicholas said calmly, her emotions already composed.

The two Three Pillar Gods and the strongest god-turner, Ye Lin, are now virtually invincible when they join forces. Each wielding their own authority, they survey the universe, and nothing can obstruct their vision.

However, the search for the fourth son was still very difficult. Even with the help of the primordial god "Darkness", it took a lot of effort to find a trace of something unusual.

Ye Lin let out a soft exclamation. He noticed a familiar trace of battle: fierce, domineering, and self-assured, as if nothing in the world could limit him. That seemed to be Kahn's fighting characteristics.

He didn't display any power or authority; it seems that Kahn fought someone purely with his divine body, and now he's nowhere to be found.

"A fur-trimmed coat, he really knows how to hide it well." Ye Lin smiled silently.

But could it be that the fourth son had some kind of conflict with Kahn?

Ye Lin took out the World-Eroding Branch that Darkness had given him earlier. This branch had a remarkable origin. It was said that there was once a prosperous and wise civilization, and at the highest point of the world, there grew a World Tree. This tree was lush and evergreen, radiating vigorous vitality and protecting life and peace.

However, someone accidentally opened a crack in the Chaos Royal Court, and a terrifying power leaked out, alarming the world. Everyone was deeply impressed by this power.

Thus, prosperous civilizations began to worship the source of this power, performing worship and sacrifices.

The characteristics of blind folly quietly seeped out, and even a trace of it caused many negative effects. That civilization began to embark on the path of madness and destruction. Peace was gone, and war raged across the land, with many people dying every moment.

The flowing blood and vengeful spirits stained the depths of the earth, absorbed by the roots of the World Tree. The emerald green branches first turned into a deep crimson, then turned black, and finally burned on a stormy night, leaving only a few cursed branches.

Because the destruction of civilization is related to blind folly, a connection has been established, and thus this branch can find the fourth child within a certain range.

Ye Lin kept staring at the branch in his hand that was emitting a black aura. At a certain moment, he suddenly looked up and cautiously gazed at the starry sky filled with chaotic energy.

Out of some habit, Ye Lin disguised himself; he was now in the form of Hastur, the Lord of the Yellow.

Shub and Bubble were very interested in this, thinking he was very clever. So they suggested that everyone split up to avoid being caught in one fell swoop. Ye Lin was to be the first to make a move and test the waters, and then they each disguised themselves.

Shub's crimson abyss power, which twists life, and the sphere of bubbles that gathers infinite radiance, both possess this ability.

Whether it can ultimately deceive the blind and foolish gaze is uncertain, but at least putting on a layer of disguise will make one feel more at ease.

So Ye Lin watched helplessly as Shub disguised herself as Bub, and Bubble disguised herself as Shub.

Not long after, they all transformed themselves into Nayali.

Click!

Ye Lin tore open a deep darkness with his bare hands, and immediately squinted his eyes slightly. The light before him was too dazzling. He had entered a mysterious place that transcended time, space and will. If it weren't for the increasingly dense black energy of the World-Eating Branch, he would have had a hard time discovering this hidden other-dimensional space even after careful examination.

From the void above, from which no source can be seen, hung down chains of dazzling golden light, imbued with mysterious power. Each chain seemed indestructible, as if materialized from the laws of nature, its entire body as smooth as jade, shimmering with golden brilliance.

Each link of the chain is not an oval-shaped interlocking ring, but is strung together by symbols that Ye Lin does not understand. There are countless golden chains here, densely packed, like a torrential rain falling from the sky. Each chain is composed of different mysterious symbols, like an unknown language, or like the embodiment of some kind of law.

The place where the chains fell was unfathomably deep, like an abyss with no end in sight.

"What is this? It gives me a feeling of being untouchable. Blind folly has given birth to a bunch of chains, an umbilical cord?" Ye Lin approached cautiously, not forgetting that there might be a fourth child here.

Wow~
Some of the chains suddenly shook, producing a metallic clanging sound.

Immediately afterwards, a mysterious roar, as loud as thunder, echoed from the abyss where the chains fell.
