Chapter 214: with translation of chapter title

A small town on the IsraelBorder.

If viewed from high above, one could see that the town's center is a grand church, with the whole town built around it.

The population is estimated to be around four or five thousand.

On the church roof stands a hexagonal Star of David, cast of metal, still shining brightly despite wind and rain.

On each east and west side is a row of tall arched windows, inlaid with stained glass depicting classic scenes from the Torah: Moses receiving the Ten Commandments, the parting of the Red Sea, the Ark of the Covenant's journey......

The entrance features a double-layered bronze gate, carved with exquisite grapevine and pomegranate patterns.

Inside the church, the dome looms high, with a finely carved lectern at its center.

Before it hangs an eternal lampstand—the SevenBranchCandlestick, gleaming with Golden Light, never extinguished.

The surrounding walls are paneled with dark mahogany, densely inscribed with commandments.

The sanctuary's prayer chamber will always ensure the HolyOfHolies faces Jerusalem.

Judaism opposes any form of idol worship, so Jewish synagogues absolutely have no image, sculpture, or picture of God.

They believe God is formless, and any image is a blasphemy against God.

Moreover, they consider themselves God's ChosenPeople, bound by an eternal covenant with Him.

Observing the law is fulfilling that covenant.

However, Isaiah said that although the Israelites are as numerous as sea sand, only a remnant will be saved.

On the other hand, not all descendants of Abraham's flesh are Israelites.

Only those who, like Abraham—regarded as the common ancestor of the Jewish and Arab nations—have faith in God are Israelites.

And also.

Judaism neither acknowledges nor worships the Christian-style Saint.

They only respect the RighteousOne—one who strictly observes God's law all life and whose moral conduct is near perfect—but they only respect, not worship.

Because they strictly forbid worship of any created thing, and can worship only the one God.

What Francis said—that they had chosen a Saint—was merely to help Yu Lin better understand what had happened, so he could come directly to look for An Yu.

Therefore.

Yu Lin's Saint status works in Christianity, but is useless in Judaism.

They don't even accept Jesus, so would they accept a Saint inferior to him?!

But Yu Lin doesn't care whether they accept it or not.

He can see, but his fists are blind!

Wait, if they don't obey, I'll beat them with a glove stained with GodsBlood, so they'll feel what GodsHand is!

Yu Lin, standing on the hillside, curled his lips into a smile, about to step toward the town where An Yu's aura appeared.

But then two figures suddenly appeared before him.

One is an old acquaintance, Satan.

The other had brownish-red eyes, a sculpted delicate face, wore a well-fitted casual outfit with the collar slightly open, revealing a beautiful collarbone.

He extended a hand to Yu Lin, showing an elegant smile: 'Hello, Yu Lin, I am Beelzebub.'

'Thanks for what happened last time.'

'Hello.' Yu Lin returned the grip, looking surprised: 'What are you here for?'

'Could this matter be related to you?'

'No no no.' Satan waved his hand, laughing: 'We're just here to watch the show.'

'You know, finding some fun in the long ages is not easy.'

He raised his eyebrows at Yu Lin, looking quite expectant.

Yu Lin stroked his chin: 'So you know who did this?'

'You want to be a Riddle Person, right?'

Satan waved his hand again: 'Can't say we know it all.'

'I merely sensed two familiar auras appearing, one of which you also know.'

'It's Gai Yin.'

'"........ Again this guy.' Yu Lin thought he had given himself trouble several times before, and said:

'Best not let me find him, or he'll suffer badly!'

Satan, however, laughed: 'You can't kill him.'

'He is the embodiment of evil; as long as evil exists in the world for a day, he will continue to exist.'

'Even if his memory is erased, making him no longer himself, he will still commit evil according to his innate evil nature.'

'Of course, like my Lord, you could curse him and exile him elsewhere.'

'Hmm, I understand.' Yu Lin nodded, not asking further about the other aura.

If Satan wanted to say it, he would have said it already; there's no need to hide it from Yu Lin.

Perhaps Gai Yin found someone like him, wanting to stir up some big trouble.

Forget it; thinking won't help. Let's go see what's really happening.

Yu Lin suppressed his thoughts and continued walking toward the town.

Satan and Beelzebub did not follow, just stood on the hillside watching him.

Until Satan suddenly raised his hand and grabbed forward.

'Uh.'

Taifu, whose neck was seized, widened her eyes, filled with disbelief: 'Sa, Satan, what are you doing here?!'

She had just been moving through space when a huge force came, pulling her straight out of it!

Satan released her, letting her fall to the ground, his tone lacking the friendliness he had when facing Yu Lin, with a hint of indifference: "This isn't something you need to know."

"Stay here and watch, don't disturb."

"Understand?"

Facing his pressure.

Taifu could only bite her lip and nod, saying, "Understood."

She truly feared Satan; she was not the rain and moisture goddess Taifunut, merely a minor deity of average power created by her father god based on Taifunut.

Moreover, not even she—her father god might not be able to defeat Satan!

She could only obediently stay to the side, fixing her gaze on the town ahead.

She spotted Yu Lin's figure.

Inside the town.

Although it was night, the town remained brightly lit, and townspeople could often be seen praying.

There were also hurried footsteps of believers.

Upon Yu Lin's arrival, they lowered their heads, showing no reaction, as if they didn't know him.

But how could that be?

A year ago that might have been plausible, but now Yu Lin's reputation has spread throughout all the major churches.

Claiming not to know him is just playing dumb, especially now that the incident with An Yu has occurred.

They don't come looking for trouble, so Yu Lin doesn't need to intervene.

He walked until he stopped before the church.

Yu Lin raised his hand.

He couldn't be bothered to go inside, so he simply lifted the entire church.

The Lord will forgive him.

At the moment he raised his hand, heaven and earth suddenly changed color! A gigantic golden handprint that covered the sky appeared out of nowhere, its fingers like heaven‑supporting pillars reaching for the church! Countless mysterious runes flowed across the handprint, exuding a suffocating pressure!

Boom—

Before the handprint even landed, the terrifying air pressure crushed all the stone slabs around the church!

The believers looked up in terror, seeing golden light enveloping heaven and earth, as if the apocalypse had arrived!

At this critical moment——

Stop!

A low shout rang out from deep within the church!

Immediately, blazing white light erupted from the sanctuary, forming a pillar of light that reached the heavens and forcefully blocked the golden hand!

Yu Lin's gaze fell on the figure appearing at the church doorway, and he thought to himself: 'He truly bears the aura of God; no wonder Francis and the others couldn't tell them apart.'

He spoke:

"'What is your name? I, Yu Lin, do not kill the nameless.'"

A light, floating voice came from the figure at the church doorway: 'Are you Yu Lin?'

"'I am merely a nameless one who willingly serves my Lord with my life.'"

Yu Lin: '..........'
