The Tale of the Void Emperor

While Athan was in the upper-chaosverse, Lily and Huarin were ready to ascend to the lower-chaosverse.

...

In the past few years, Lily and Huarin trained together in Ark space as Lily also increased Huarin's talent with Ark of Exordium's power.

Although both of them had long qualified to ascend, they stayed for a while and sorted out everything for Dream Palace.

"Lily, do you know how chaosverse looks like?" Huarin asked with curiosity.

"Nope, but we will see it soon," Lily said with a smile, "let's go now. The portal is open."

They were in front of a giant vortex, and there were other people here as well since there was a large city built around this vortex.

Unlike the Elenex universe, this universe's people had already started ascending to chaosverse for a long time.

After they went through the large vortex, they arrived in a new world that was completely different from the universe. They couldn't feel laws or spirit energy in the atmosphere at all.

However, before they could look around properly, five people surrounded them and started introducing their organizations, the benefits of joining them, etc.

"Eh, we are not interested in joining any organization right now," Lily said with a smile as she waved her right hand, "bye."

After that, she and Huarin entered the Ark space and started moving.

There was an extremely tiny dot blended into the atmosphere. Even if powerhouses searched it with all their power, they wouldn't be able to see this tiny dot.

This tiny dot had a mystic space power around it such that even though it was present in chaosverse's, it was not present in this exact plane at the time because the Ark had a special dimension around it.

Not even powerhouses in the upper-chaosverse would be able to sense the Ark moving around them.

After entering the Ark space, Lily started moving it with her while seeing everything outside.

While moving, she turned to Mimi and asked, "Mimi, since we are in chaosverse now, can you come outside?"

Mimi shook her head and said, "nope, I still can't go outside. I could go out in the universe, but it would damage it. However, If I go outside right now, I will be attacked instead and forced to leave chaosverse."

"Oh, I see...," Lily nodded before she turned to Huarin, "sis, what do we do now? do we join any organization?"

Huarin and Lily had nulled their Master-disciple status years ago when Huarin found out about Lily's progression speed. But their bond was deep since they had stayed together for years and were just like sisters. Huarin was still more experienced even though she was not as powerful as Lily.

"Nyaa, I can't sense master here," Lucky said with a sad voice.

DeathKnight, Silvestra, Lucent, and Skylord were also disappointed.

Mimi nodded and said with a wry smile, "we ascended to a different lower-choasverse, that's why. But, no worries, all lower-chaosverses are connected to one Upper-chaosverse. That's the real chaosverse; It's boundless!"

"Lily, the person you want to find might reach upper-chaosverse sooner or later, or he might be already there, so our only goal should be to get strong ourselves and ascend to upper-chaosverse as well," Huarin said with a smile.

"Yes," Lily nodded with determination.

"Then let's roam around in Ark and gather some information first," Huarin said after thinking for a bit, "we will have to find a place that can allow us to progress fastest."

"Gotcha, let's do it!" Lily said with some excitement as she flew the Ark and fished for information. She was motivated to train more and more to reach the upper-chaosverse and meet Athan there.

...

On the other hand, Linci and her mother, Elena, had already spent a day together as Linci talked about her time after meeting Athan and how he changed her entire world.

Elena looked at her daughter with a gentle gaze as she talked about Athan.

"It looks like my baby girl has found her love," Elena said with a chuckle as she looked at Linci, who had turned beet red after hearing her.

"Hehe, Mother also married your father because we loved each other," Elena said with a smile as she patted Linci's head.

"Linci...you said you met Athan ten some years ago, right? but what about before that?" Elena asked as she hugged Linci before continuing, "your cries told me your suffering, but I don't know the reason that caused you that. Tell me, precious...what happened?"

Linci shook her head with a smile and said, "who can do anything to me when I had such a...berserk power inside me? If anyone dared to come close to me, they would suffer, not me."

Elena sighed and said, "fine, I will find out what happened myself. I am sensing that you avert your gaze every time I talk about your father and become unnatural. So I will ask him myself."

"I also want the memories of you when you were a little baby from your father because I didn't have that chance," Elena said with a smile as she let out of powerful soul sense and called Gaarshil to come into the room.

Gaarshil was still in that room with an undeciding and hesitating expression before he heard Elena's voice in his ears.

Benil also slightly shook because he sensed her sister-in-law's soul presence.

He saw Gaarshil leaving the room with an expression filled with regret and self-loathe.

...

Elena and Linci saw the room of their room opening as Gaarshil entered.

Elena sensed something off when she looked at Gaarshil's expression and frowned.

"Dear, you don't seem to be happy even though I finally awoke from my deep slumber," Elene said with a frown.

Gaarshil's body shook as he looked at Elena. He was happy, very happy that his wife was finally saved, but...

"Sigh, you...were not in a deep slumber. You were dying..., but you are okay now....okay, so I am indeed happy," Gaarshil spoke in a weird way as he slightly glanced at Linci as pain and regret filled his eyes.

Elena frowned and looked at Linci as she saw that Linci's gaze directed towards Gaarshil was not the one like how a daughter would look at her father.

Elena felt as if someone suddenly pressed a heavy boulder on her chest as she guessed something. She knew her daughter's berserk power was powerful because she was the first victim of that, but...she didn't want to believe that Gaarshil took that path because of it.

"Show me!" Elena sharply said as she stretched her hand towards Gaarshil.

An ethereal soul avatar left Elena's body before it grabbed Gaarshil's head with her two hands.

Gaarshil didn't resist as Elena read and watched everything he experienced after Linci was born.

Well, it was not like he could resist Elena's power because she was way more powerful than him.

She was the most powerful existence in the entire Crow household. She was a genuine Chaos Saint realm powerhouse!

Naturally, only Gaarshil, Benil, and some of the close relatives of their knew of Elena's true strength.. After all, She was a daughter of a prominent family but had run away and married Gaarshil since they loved each other.
