this infinite world

"...It really has been restored. Even the reward points and side quests I received from the main god have been restored."

When Varosi, now fully restored, closed his eyes and contacted the Supreme God, and called upon the Supreme God's healing pillar but received no response, he confirmed that what Yang Yun had just said was true. Even the all-powerful "Supreme God" could not repair the soul modification technology of the Celestial Serpent Clan... And it was precisely because of this that Varosi felt even more like he was still in a dream.

It's important to understand that what's in Varosti isn't just any ordinary stuff; it's a genetic virus specially created by the Celestial Serpent Clan. This race, renowned throughout the multiverse for its biotechnology, boasts genetic modification techniques that are unparalleled in the multiverse. Their most famous "achievement" was on Nuwa... Although this matter is kept extremely secret, most of the veteran human leaders are aware of it.

Even Nuwa, a royal-level saint, was not immune to this gene virus, let alone Valosti. He went through all sorts of hardships to return to the main god space in order to use the main god's full-body repair to solve his problems, but in the end... a mysterious person he had never seen or heard of solved his urgent problem.
The existence of something implies its own justification; how it was achieved can be disregarded for now. The biggest problem facing Varo now is—

"……who are you?"

Having exchanged a garment from the main god, Varosti, no longer the naked man he once was, stood there. His speech, demeanor, and movements exuded a noble air, a stark contrast to his comical appearance as a herbal slime: "To be able to pinpoint my identity so easily and to heal the Celestial Serpent Clan's genetic virus with a flick of your wrist, a powerful being like you could never remain unknown."

"Could it be that you are Pei Jiao, no, Pei Xi..."

"...Why do they all think I'm one of the Emperor's people?"

As expected, upon hearing Varo's guess, Yang Yun sighed and shook his head in denial, saying, "Do I really look like the Human Emperor's little brother?"

If he could still use Ilúvatar's name to enter the Lord of the Rings world under the guise of Emperor Pei Xi, then now that Yang Yun has inherited the karma of "Nine-Headed Clan," he has no reason or need to continue acting under the other party's name. After all, with that middle finger being watched by most of the powerful beings in the multiverse, there is no doubt that he and Emperor Pei Xi are enemies, and a battle between the two is inevitable.

Therefore, Yang Yun said directly and bluntly: "I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I am not only not Pei Xi's friend, in fact, there will definitely be a battle between us in the future."

"...Are you Pei Xi's enemy?"

However, to Yang Yun's surprise, after hearing these words, Varosti took a step back and revealed clear hostility towards him: "Could it be that you also stand on the side of the Primordial Heavenly Court—"

—Hmm? This reaction seems a bit off?
Yang Yun frowned slightly at Varosti's performance.

If the original members of the reincarnation team from 18,000 years ago weren't idiots, they would have realized they had stepped into a carefully laid trap when faced with the siege of the Primordial Heavenly Court and the long-absent Human Emperor Fuxi. While Valosti, the only survivor besides Xuena, wouldn't necessarily turn to the dark side like the former, his past relationship with Pei Xi would certainly be gone… But now it seems things aren't developing as Yang Yun expected?
...Could it be that things didn't develop the way they originally did in this multiverse?
Who I am is not important; what matters is our identity.

A brief moment of doubt flashed through Yang Yun's mind, but the immediate priority was clearly not that. Facing Valosti, who was already preparing to draw his Holy Lance, Yang Yun made a move—he revealed his God's Watch.

"After seeing this, do you still think I'm on the side of the Primordial Heavenly Court?"

It is known that Varosti was a member of the first generation of the Reincarnation Squad 18,000 years ago. In Yang Yun's multiverse, he was ambushed and killed by the cultivator Di Xin during a battle, losing all his power and disappearing without a trace. In this multiverse, the scar on his knee that has not disappeared even after Yang Yun's treatment indicates that Varosti's situation is similar.

According to the intelligence Yang Yun gathered, the Primordial Heavenly Court and the Main God Space were inherently enemies, sworn enemies to the death. It could be said that upon entering the Main God Space, these reincarnation team members had already determined their stance… Under these circumstances, wouldn't revealing their identities as reincarnators be the best proof?

As expected, when he saw the God of War wristwatch on Yang Yun's wrist, Varosti breathed a sigh of relief. He nodded and said, "If that's the case, then you and I are not enemies... at least not now." "I won't ask what grudge you have with Pei Xi for now, but tens of thousands of years of spacetime turbulence and hundreds of years of alien time have finally given me my freedom. Thank you."

As he spoke, the incredibly handsome man immediately lowered his head, placed his slender right hand on his chest, and performed a perfect and impeccable bow to Yang Yun, fully displaying his aristocratic manners.

"Hmm... there's no need to be so polite."

Yang Yun did not dodge, but accepted the bow calmly: "Although I have said this before, it is no big deal to say it again at this time... We cannot let the heroes of the past bleed and shed tears again."

As he spoke, facing Valosti, who was deeply moved by these words and about to bow again, Yang Yun quickly reached out a hand to stop him: "Furthermore, there's another reason why I said not to make you so polite. Your current state is only temporary. After all, the Celestial Serpent virus in your body has been entangled with you for a long time, and even with the Holy Lance protecting you, it's still inevitable that your true spirit will be eroded... If you want to fully recover, you'll need a period of treatment, so for the time being, you'll stay by my side."

"As it should be."

Upon hearing this, Varosti seemed to finally relax, revealing an expression that said, "That's more like it."

After all, although Valosti believed that the Serpent Clan gene virus in his body was not incurable, it would be too absurd for Yang Yun to completely cure him with a wave of his hand. The current situation was the normal development: "So, how long can I maintain this state? You know, after returning to human form, I don't want to maintain that embarrassing form for even a second longer."

As he spoke, Varosti even stretched his legs, showing that he really disliked this "wriggling" way of moving.

"three."

"Three days? That should be enough."

Varosti nodded: "Then I'll take a good rest during this time..."

“I was talking about three minutes,” Yang Yun shrugged. “You can only maintain this state for three minutes at the moment, but of course, as my research progresses, your transformation time will be extended.”

"But now, all you have left is... well, it's all gone."

With a soft "pop" sound, like a bubble bursting, Varosti's figure twisted abruptly and vanished into thin air like a punctured phantom. In its place appeared the green herb slime, Varosti, which had reverted to its original form…

Varo's round body froze on the spot, its beady eyes wide open, revealing an extreme disbelief even in its slime form... and after a moment, it unleashed a deafening roar—

"Are you kidding me???"

For a moment, only Varo's miserable roar remained in the entire main square, its echoes lingering for three days... (End of Chapter)
