Yan, the Brainless One

Yan quickly returned to the Angel Hall. As soon as she approached, she sensed an invisible barrier.

She was just about to contact Queen Keisha when the barrier in front of her opened a gap. At the same time, Queen Keisha's voice telling her to come in rang out over the Dark Communication.

"Oh, Yan-bao is back. Why didn't you spend more time with the Little God?"

The moment Hexi saw Yan return, she immediately began teasing her, using the same form of address Yun Zhao had used that time.

"Heavenly Fundation King Hexi, I need an explanation."

Yan had already been somewhat angry. Now that Hexi was teasing her as well, how could she possibly hold back?

She immediately took on the appearance of someone demanding an account.

"Oh? What kind of explanation? What's wrong? I kindly found you a God, and if you don't appreciate it, fine—but now you're questioning me?"

Yan let out a cold laugh. "You call selling yourself and your own disciple off together kindness?"

"You—"

Hexi was rendered speechless. She turned and glared at Keisha, who was watching the show. "Queen, aren't you going to control your Left Wing Guardian? She's disrespecting her superiors!"

"She isn't wrong. You did sell all of us off."

"You—"

"All right, all right, I sold you all off, but you could refuse to accept it. No one forced you. At worst, I'll go become his Guardian Angel by myself."

"Teacher," Zhi Xin said.

"No," Leng and Ling Xi said.

The three Little Angels immediately made it clear that they refused to accept that, and Yan let out another cold laugh.

"Heavenly Fundation King Hexi, put away those little schemes of yours. The God belongs to everyone. You can forget about swallowing him all by yourself."

This time, Hexi was completely rendered speechless by their retorts.

Yan was the one making a fuss and complaining about being sold off, yet she was also the one saying the God belonged to everyone. In the end, Hexi was the only one who looked bad no matter what she did.

This was downright bullying.

When had she, Heavenly Fundation King Hexi, ever suffered such a loss? No, she had to find a way to get her dignity back.

The next moment, her eyes shifted. She looked at Yan with a smile and said, "Since you've accepted it too, how about I give you a new arrangement? It concerns the future of all angels, so I'm not joking."

Seeing her bring up the Angel Future, Yan abandoned her original intention of retorting.

"Heavenly Fundation King, please explain."

"You all heard what the Little God said just now about pursuing the future of Galaxy Strength, right?"

Everyone nodded. Hexi glanced at Keisha, who remained silent for a moment before slowly nodding.

"The Known Universe is very unsettled right now. The angels have held sway over the universe for many years, and quite a few factions have built up resentment toward us. The worst among them are Styx, the demons, and Lieyang."

As soon as she finished speaking, Leng was about to say something, but Keisha stopped her.

"Constant suppression definitely won't work, so Queen Keisha and I came up with a plan."

At this point, Keisha took over and explained her plan to go offline and have Yan replace her as the Angel New Queen. Of course, to keep the Little Angels from overthinking things, she described it as pretending to go offline and retire behind the scenes.

"That way, we can see which factions jump out after I go offline. When the time comes, we can wipe them all out in one fell swoop."

The Little Angels all nodded repeatedly. It was indeed a good plan.

"As for Galaxy Strength, he was the Angel Future that Hexi and I originally deduced. His compatibility with Yan is also quite good—seventy-eight percent—so I arranged for you to become her Guardian Angel."

"The future Angel Queen and the future Earth Main God joining forces as the Supreme God of the next era—this should give the angels a promising future."

"The recommendation results were acceptable, but what Yun Zhao said struck us like a blow to the head."

"Although the final result was good, the process was too cruel. That wasn't the future Hexi and I truly wanted."

Keisha stopped and looked at Yan. "Yan, if the plan proceeded as usual, what choice would you make this time? Would you choose Yun Zhao or Galaxy Strength?"

Called out unexpectedly, Yan remained silent for a long while before raising her head. "Yun Zhao."

The future of choosing Galaxy Strength wasn't bad either, but the process was cruel. As a transmigrator, Yun Zhao knew how the future would develop, and his potential was extraordinary. His System Cheat was also incredibly powerful. As he himself had put it, it completely crushed Galaxy Strength.

His compatibility with her was even higher. In every respect, Yun Zhao was clearly the better choice.

"Choosing Yun Zhao means choosing an uncertain future. I just used the Sacred Knowledge Vault to make a simple deduction of Yun Zhao's future, but it was completely blurred. I couldn't tell whether it was good or bad. Would you still choose him?"

"Yes. The predetermined future isn't the future I want. Angels fear no challenge."

"Just as the Guardian Oath says: whether in poverty or wealth, whether lowly or noble, once I choose him, I'll accompany him all the way until eternity."

Hearing her words, Queen Keisha smiled, and Hexi smiled as well.

"Sister Yan, you aren't alone this time," Zhi Xin said solemnly.

"That's right. You still have me," Ling Xi said.

"I'll draw my sword and fight for him, love what he loves, think what he thinks, and stay with him until eternity," Leng said.

Seeing her three sisters act this way, Yan smiled as well.

"Very good. Since you've made your choice, I have a task for you: bring Yun Zhao into the Angel Faction."

At Hexi's words, Yan froze. She was supposed to recruit him? How was she supposed to do that? Seeing her bewildered expression, Hexi said irritably, "The Little God's assessment of you was absolutely right. You really don't have much of a brain."

"He knows how the future will develop, doesn't he? Since he knows about Galaxy Strength and knows that he is the future the angels are pursuing, do you think he'll know that you'll become Galaxy Strength's Guardian Angel in the future?"

Yan nodded. He definitely knew, right? After all, the Little God had said so—and she had even given the God Heavenly Blade 7.

"Then tell me, if you put the data on your compatibility with him right in front of him, with his understanding of us, would he fail to understand what it means?"

"I understand, but why me? Don't the rest of you have compatibility results too?"

Although she had already somewhat accepted the compatibility data and admitted that she was attracted to Yun Zhao's genetic aura, she had no intention of revealing everything so early. She had been planning to observe him for a thousand years or so.

Yet Hexi wanted her to reveal everything now and use the compatibility results to win Yun Zhao over.

She did want Yun Zhao to join the angels, but wasn't using such a method a little too—well, excessive?

"You're the future Angel Queen in his understanding. We aren't. You carry more weight than we do, so this will show greater sincerity. Do you understand?"

Hexi rolled her eyes again, her face filled with exasperation. How had she never noticed before that Yan's mind was so slow?

"All right, Hexi. This matter can't be handled this way. Yan should be allowed to make her own choice. The future of the angels shouldn't be secured through such methods."

"We've only just met him, and our understanding of him is still very limited. We shouldn't rush to make a final decision."

"Besides, he's still young and needs a long time to grow. There's no need to rush. We can observe him for now."

Keisha made the final decision, and no one said anything more.

There was indeed no need to rush. Observing him for a while would be fine.
