Arad's unruly savior

"That wretched mother goat, I'll shear her wool clean the next time I see her."

Before leaving the Chaos Royal Court, Naya was still unhappy and her anger had not subsided. She kept muttering "Shub Nicholas" to herself.

Bubble rolled her eyes and teased, "When you were the first to eat alone, Shub was probably just as angry."

The implication is that one shouldn't be hypocritical. When you're running around in the original universe and have obtained a local household registration, have you ever considered us outsiders without local household registration? Probably not.

At the time, they didn't even mention helping their sisters.

Naya was taken aback for a moment, then pondered for a while and realized that it really made sense. When she had a local household registration, she had proudly shown it off to Bubble, full of a sense of superiority.

"Uh, local residency is very difficult to obtain, the number is limited, and besides, I'm an angel investor, so I seized a rare opportunity..." Naya Li, with her mischievous and clever eyes, quickly changed the subject, speaking in a serious tone:

"That's not what makes me angry. What's wrong is that the three of us clearly agreed to unite as a force and advance or retreat together, but the mother goat ran away. That violates the spirit of the contract. Yes, that's the situation."

In the ruins of the Chaos Royal Court in the outer universe, two of the Three Pillar Gods were criticizing Shub Nicholas, saying it was going too far.

Currently, the nine parallel dimensions that still exist are not neatly stacked. They transcend the conventional spatial order, have no concept of high or low, left or right, and seem to overlap yet each has its own distance, like projections from different dimensions.

At the "center" of the nine parallel dimensions lies a chaotic zone where the concepts of time and space are almost nonexistent and blurred. There exist special life forms that defy the laws of life. Death stars rise and fall here, void turbulence rages, and spacetime rifts intertwine, making it extremely dangerous. Even those who transcend the limits will lose their way.

The messenger of the end times once appeared here, and the archangel Raphael, who nearly fell from heaven, was also "reborn" here, restoring the ancient divine light.

Ye Lin returned to the chaotic zone and went deep into it. One of the reasons he chose this place was that if breaking through to the Creation Realm would cause violent fluctuations that would affect the real world, he could minimize the losses in a place without normal life.

The shattered star debris, the twisted and terrifying cracks, the violently surging winds of nothingness, and the pure consciousness of destruction—none of the scenes of natural disasters and apocalypse could touch him in the slightest. The appearance of Night Forest directly illuminated the chaotic area, magnificent and powerful, radiating to every corner, and a single wisp of his aura crushed the stars.

Suddenly, a beam of pure white light shone from the depths of the chaotic area. Pure and bright, it contained the law of purification and holiness. A figure as fast as lightning quickly approached Night Forest, but cautiously stopped at a certain distance, without actually getting close.

It was a handsome and majestic angel with six sacred wings behind him, which shone with brilliant light when he waved them. He was clearly an archangel, one of the twelve archangels of heaven.

Ye Lin looked calmly at the other person, whose body was robust and had a seven-colored halo behind his head, making him appear sacred and noble. His golden eyes were very deep and had a strong spirituality, as if he could see through all the secrets of the world. He wore silver-white holy armor, held a holy sword burning with flames in his hand, and had a pendant around his neck that looked like two miniature doors.

Immediately, Ye Lin learned the other party's identity: Uriel, one of the twelve archangels of heaven, an "omnipotent" angel with some knowledge in various fields.

Whether it's Michel's Holy Eyes, Raguel's mastery of the soul realm, Raphael's Fiery Judgment Sword, Gabriel's World-Destroying Horn, and so on, Uriel possesses some of them.

He also knew some of Saphir's hymns.

I heard from Xiaochu before that Uriel guards the Chaotic Zone and reports the strange occurrences there to Heaven at any time.

"Lord Night Forest," Uriel addressed him respectfully, bowing slightly in greeting. However, the bow was so small that it would be difficult to notice unless one's gaze was fixed on him.

The angels were all squinty-eyed, fanatical believers, utterly loyal, and only obeyed Remy's commands. For them to bow slightly in respect was the greatest respect that could be shown in their faith.

So Uriel treats all gods with the same attitude, not just Yelin, and he might even show respect by simply nodding his chin. Yelin is a rather exceptional case.

No god would be displeased with His attitude, as everyone knows what the Heavenly Kingdom faction has always been like. If anyone is truly unhappy, Remy wouldn't mind showing up and saying something.

Uriel naturally recognized Ye Lin, the strongest god-turner. After being pierced by light in the chaotic zone, he immediately risked his life to come here. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found out it was Ye Lin.

Thankfully, it wasn't an invasion by an Outer God or the God of the End.

"While you've been keeping watch here, have you noticed anything unusual?" Ye Lin asked casually.

After all, he was a subordinate with squinty eyes, which meant he was one of his own. Ye Lin would not be too cold or distant. He chose the chaotic area as his breakthrough point and would not rudely drive him away.

“No.” Uriel slowly shook his head, the halo behind his head remaining perfectly still, radiating holiness. Then, after a moment’s thought, he added:
"But the absence of any abnormalities may be the biggest abnormality."

At this critical juncture, the more logical something is, the less logical it becomes.

After a short while, Uriel remembered something and said:
"In a place in the chaotic zone, I discovered two special life forms that violated the laws of life. They had no intelligence, no reason, and acted only on instinct, with a desire to devour energy."

“Those two special life forms have a level of transcendence, and I suspect they are newly born. I am preparing to ask Heaven for help.”

The implication is that this is likely related to the recent rift in the nine parallel dimensions, which leaked spacetime power, resulting in the creation of two terrifying special life forms amidst the intersecting energy torrents.

As a legitimate, veteran six-winged archangel of Heaven, and with the divine artifacts He possesses, Uriel is confident that he can take down the two special life forms on his own. However, if he wants to ensure success, it would be best to have an accomplice or a powerful artifact to enhance his abilities.

These are turbulent times, and we should strive for perfection and avoid creating unnecessary complications.

“I’ve already discovered it.” Ye Lin nodded, his gaze fixed on the depths of the chaotic area.

The first special life form was a dense, deep shadow, a being whose appearance and shape were constantly changing. It was writhing, twisting, and sinking inward like a vortex, sometimes revealing some stone-like parts, as if it had devoured stars.

There was another life form that resembled a crystal-clear diamond, about the size of a star. Its surface had countless smooth facets, and a ray of light falling on it could refract into infinite brilliance, like a work of art sculpted by the most precise master using the most advanced instruments over a long period of time.

Two special life forms at the Transcendent level once fought, attempting to devour each other, but neither could prevail. They remained at a distance from each other, unconsciously moving through the chaotic zone, searching for other high-energy beings.

The power that illuminated the chaotic area after Ye Lin's arrival was strong and pure, its laws spreading like the sun suddenly illuminating the dead of winter, possessing unparalleled attraction. Without him even needing to search, two special life forms actively approached him. "A diamond the size of a planet, its brilliance shining, refracting across the sky, truly beautiful," Ye Lin sincerely praised, already somewhat tempted to keep the planetary diamond to give away.

Take Rui Ke for example. She is happy to adorn herself with expensive luxury goods and bluntly stated that she would not live without luxury goods. Her necklaces, earrings, rings, bracelets... she will never leave any place where she can wear luxury jewelry empty.

Moreover, she was reluctant to wear some of the spiritual items Ye Lin gave her, treasures nurtured by heaven and earth, which could nourish the body, ward off evil, and prolong life, because she felt they were not "precious" enough.

In other words, it doesn't have that super expensive look, so she doesn't want to wear it in public, as it would make her seem like she has no status.

Conversely, even the most ordinary piece of glass, if it undergoes appropriate value certification—for example, if the Celia Chamber of Commerce holds a jewelry exhibition and lists the glass as a top-tier treasure, estimating a price with many zeros—then Ruike would be happy to wear it and treat it as a treasure.

What she wants is the sense of showing off and satisfaction that luxury goods, which are recognized by the public, bring her.

As for the other shadow, Ye Lin didn't mention it at all; it was too ugly and had no value in being preserved.

Then, he saw the planet-sized diamond life form, rushing towards him, suddenly split open from the middle, revealing a gaping maw with interlocking fangs, spitting out scarlet tentacles filled with a desire to devour everything, dripping with black saliva.

"Never mind then..." Ye Lin suddenly lost the desire to give it away.

His gaze swept across, seemingly calm, without a ripple... Two special life forms, transcendent beings and filled with greed, rushed in, monsters capable of bringing annihilation to a life-bearing planet. Their planet-sized bodies instantly disintegrated and crumbled, then burst into inextinguishable flames, ultimately turning into nothingness.

The powerful life force of those at the Transcendent level, with its ability to revive from physical death, is as if they had never possessed it at all.

"The power of the gods!" The omnipotent angel Uriel sighed inwardly, feeling a little envious, but also aware of his own shortcomings and lack of sufficient foundation. That realm was not one that could be entered and observed casually.

There are currently twelve archangels in Heaven, but only Michael has achieved divine status. Moreover, he paid a huge price, nearly perishing, before managing to seize a sliver of life.

Then, Ye Lin acted even more decisively, directly clearing away the chaotic area. His laws swept across the world, and his gaze transformed into a white sword aura. All life forms that violated the ancient laws of life and possessed devouring, aggressive, or malicious tendencies were melted away like ice and snow, leaving them with no room to resist.

There was even a special life form that transcended the realm, almost transparent, moving silently, and without any soul fluctuations. Even the omnipotent angel Uriel did not notice it. The moment it was exposed, it emitted a piercing shriek that pierced the void, stirred up a storm, looked back with hateful eyes, and then fled in a fit of rage.

The moment the fleeing action was made, its body completely dissolved.

“Somewhat unexpectedly, it seems to have developed very basic awareness and knows how to escape.” Uriel was surprised, then fell into thought.

Life forms born in chaotic zones are naturally inclined to devour high-energy substances, as if it were an innate and indelible nature. They do not flee from powerful enemies and openly expose their hungry desires.

Ye Lin said, "Life evolves, and a trace of order will eventually emerge from chaos."

Immediately, he dismissed the omnipotent angel Uriel from the chaotic area, and said that he would take over the area from now on, so that he could return to heaven and report to the squinty-eyed man.

"I will follow your glory." Uriel bowed slightly again, this time with a slightly larger arc than before.

It wasn't just that Ye Lin's actions earned His respect; He also understood Ye Lin's will and knew that He was protecting the nine parallel dimensions and the believers of light and life.

Before leaving, Uriel turned around, cupped his hands, and said respectfully:

"I'm entrusting everything to you."

As an archangel and a believer in life and light, Uriel participated in the war to purify all apostles in the angelic dimension.

He left the Kingdom of Heaven and walked on Earth in His radiant form, sharing meals and lodging with believers, singing praises of God together, fighting side by side, and laughing joyfully with them...

So even knowing that the Angel Dimension was just a tributary, a world that shouldn't have existed, and that it might be better if it disappeared... Uriel still couldn't accept this incredibly cold ending.

In His view, those wars were real, the struggle of the archangels to purify all the apostles under Michael's leadership was real, and every believer... even if they were not believers, every soldier, every ordinary person was real.

The peace of the Angel Dimension was bought with countless blood and fire, countless sacrifices, and a war that lasted for nearly a thousand years before we have the beautiful scenery we enjoy today.

Now, is it just going to casually turn into a wisp of smoke, a tributary merging into the mainstream, becoming nothing more than a memory?

Uriel believed he could never accept it, nor could he accept those who sacrificed themselves to purify the apostles.

Uriel firmly believed that the angelic dimension for which He fought was a real, pure, and free world.

Ye Lin nodded, then watched as Uriel transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the distance.

Outside the chaotic land, Remy gazed into the depths with some worry and unease, but he did not go in, remaining only on the outside.

"Why don't you go in, hold his hand tightly, and give him some encouragement? Or... well, a woman is a man's best medicine." The elegant woman in the black dress appeared, still with her habitually teasing, squinting eyes.

She squinted and shook her head. She had done everything she could to help Ye Lin and given him everything she could. Going there now would only offer some emotional comfort and might even disrupt some of Ye Lin's plans.

“I know he’s inside, and he knows I’m outside, that’s enough,” she replied with squinty eyes, her voice gentle and virtuous.

The three divine laws have transformed into a vast starry river, pouring in chaotic power. The progress is now more than halfway complete, which makes Ye Lin increasingly uneasy, as the future is still unknown.

He took a deep breath, a human instinct to calm down when facing stressful events.
