Douluo: Rainbow Cat, Blue Cat, Seven Swords and Dragon Rider

Chapter 1042 Safeguarding Peace
This was indeed just a victory celebration.

Angel Yan didn't intend to say much more. After a passionate speech, she ended her remarks and let the celebration banquet get to its real purpose.

What's the theme of the victory celebration banquet? It's a banquet, of course, otherwise why would it be called a victory celebration banquet?
This situation was quite unexpected for Lena.

"What on earth are the angels up to? Weren't they trying to use this victory celebration to demonstrate the status of the angelic civilization in the known universe?"

Pan Zhen thought for a moment and then said, "Perhaps we really misunderstood the angel's meaning."

At present, the Angel Civilization's strength far surpasses that of other civilizations, leading by a significant margin, and it has no need to demonstrate its status in any other way.

The Holy Queen Keisha was already capable of suppressing the known universe for tens of thousands of years, and the angelic civilization will likely continue to suppress the entire known universe for tens of thousands of years. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

"In that case, we in Lieyang still need to maintain good relations with the angels."

"That's natural; in any case, we can't offend the angels."

As the celebration banquet was drawing to a close, Angel Yan raised her glass again and said, "The known universe has just experienced an invasion from the void universe. I believe everyone has realized that the civilizations within the known universe are quite weak."

All civilizations need a peaceful environment to grow, so I hope that all the civilizations present here can maintain peace with each other.

If any conflicts arise, we angels can take responsibility for resolving them. There's no need to doubt the angels' impartiality; time will prove everything.

If any civilization insists on starting a war, the angels wouldn't mind personally destroying it.

It was quite surprising that Angel Yan said such a thing, because it was very different from the image of an angel.

Angels of the past would never utter words that would destroy another civilization; the justice and order they upheld would not allow them to do so.

However, the current angelic civilization is completely different. The angels continue to uphold justice, but how to practice justice is a completely different story.

You might say that such an angel is clearly a dictator, but if a dictator can maintain peace, while those who are not dictators bring about war, then what would you choose?

Nothing is absolute at any time or in any situation. Thinking about things with an absolute mindset will only lead you into a dead end, from which you will be unable to extricate yourself.

Both Keisha and Liang Bing went to extremes in the past, but now they have both realized one thing: nothing is absolutely right.

The universe is constantly changing, and so are the so-called correct things. If you want to seek the truth, you yourself must also change.

Whether the civilizations listened to Angel Yan's words at the victory banquet is hard to say, but the Angel civilization will prove it with its actions.

Angel Yan said these words without consulting Keisha at all, which surprised Keisha quite a bit.

"Yan actually bypassed you and said something like that. Aren't you surprised?"

He Xi said to Keisha with a smile.

Keisha nodded: "It did surprise me, but it also made me very happy."

This shows that Yan has finally become capable of standing on her own and has established her own sense of justice and order. Now it remains to be seen how she will put it into practice.

"Then we can trust her, and believe that she will earnestly uphold her own sense of justice and order."

After the grand victory banquet, representatives of many civilizations were also allowed to stay and tour the Heavenly Court of Merlo.

Many representatives of civilizations stayed to tour the site and inquired about the system of faith power. The angels did not hide anything from the angels regarding the system of faith power.

The power of faith is not a technological system, and without the help of Lan Hong and his group, other civilizations would have virtually no chance of mastering it.

Many civilizations were disappointed when they learned that they could not master a system of faith power.

Many civilizations, witnessing how angels became even more powerful after acquiring a system of faith power, couldn't help but covet that system of faith power.

This is a very normal situation. After all, no civilization is willing to be subservient to others, so it is a good thing to have a goal for them to climb.

Lan Hong is actually quite disappointed with many civilizations in the known universe.

There are indeed many known civilizations in the universe, but many of them have gone astray.

They desperately pursued power, yet failed to realize that the foundation of their civilization was extremely unstable.

The more they pursue power, the more unstable their foundations will lead to the destruction of their civilization.

Perhaps even without the threat of the void, most civilizations would ultimately not escape the fate of destruction.

Lan Hong shared his ideas with Keisha and He Xi, and they both agreed with them.

“That’s true. I once suggested that angels guide the growth of those civilizations, but Keisha felt that would be an interference with civilization.”

"I still believe that angels shouldn't interfere too much in the development of other civilizations. What do you think, my god?"

"I actually agree with what you said. Respecting the fate of others, survival of the fittest, and the same applies to civilization."

Doing your own job well is the most important thing. As for helping other civilizations, there's no need to take the initiative to do so. Just help out when you see an opportunity. That's enough.

The Angelic Civilization now has the power to disregard the opinions of other civilizations, so it should just focus on doing its own thing.

"Just do your best, that's really enlightening."

If we haven't even done a good job ourselves, how can we expect to teach others? Isn't that a form of arrogance?

There's a concept of the Seven Deadly Sins among humans on Earth, and perhaps we angels committed the sin of pride.

"I told you not to think too much. Thinking too much will only make you confused."

"That's true. All we need to do is stay with our idol."

After the angels' victory feast, the known universe returned to its former peace.

However, this stability did not last long. In a star field not far from the Angel Nebula, two civilizations clashed.

Angel Yan sent angels to mediate, and the mediation went very smoothly. However, after the angels left, one of the civilizations suddenly launched an attack and swallowed up the other civilization.

This was a blatant provocation to the angels. That civilization probably thought that since they had created a fait accompli, the angels couldn't do anything to them. However, they didn't take Angel Yan's words to heart and were still fantasizing that the angels would never do something that would destroy a civilization.

But the facts will teach this civilization a lesson, and also teach the entire known universe a lesson.
