Chapter 1266: Chapter 1265: Seeing the Eight Legitimate Sons Again

Regarding the question of whether the Gluttonous Beast is male or female, Zhao Qian and Huo Qilin do not know, so the two could only remain silent, after all, they had never seen the ferocious beast either, and whether the rumors were true or false was still uncertain.

Yusuf Zuck also knew that his question was somewhat superfluous, or perhaps he was just too anxious.

Indeed, the speed of the God Ship was extremely fast; after flying through the void, it tore through space and then instantly jumped billions of miles away.

Indeed, one jump of the God Ship only covered billions of miles, and this distance did not exceed the reach of Yusuf Zuck’s Divine Consciousness.

However, due to the uniqueness of the spatial void in the Heavenly Realm, those below the level of a Divine King were unable to traverse time and space, so the jumping flight of the God Ship was also an essential item for visiting friends or for training outside, at least for those below the God King Level.

A day and a half later, after an unknown number of jumps, the God Ship finally came to a stop, and standing on the God Ship, Yusuf Zuck saw the continuous rolling desolate mountains, which were pitch-dark, occasionally revealing a hint of gray-white, with some sparse grass or trees, but not many.

The God Ship landed on the official road; they had arrived at their destination, and when Yusuf Zuck disembarked, he saw the area around Mount Wanbone crowded with people of all sorts, variously dressed, including masters and minor figures and so forth, likely numbering over a hundred thousand.

"So many people..." Yusuf Zuck’s expression grew grave, as he was somewhat worried about Fatty.

Indeed, he had already concluded that the fierce beast was none other than Fatty, given that the Gluttonous Beast, an ancient fierce beast, had long been extinct. Thus, having one appear was already quite miraculous, and coincidentally, Fatty had ascended to the Heavenly Realm, so the likelihood was quite high that it was Fatty.

Now that Fatty had caused such a huge commotion, alarming the entire Heavenly Realm, was there still a way for her to survive?

You must know, the Heavenly Realm is filled with countless masters.

"Everyone move aside, people from The Eight Great Families are coming!"

"What? People from The Eight Great Families are coming?"

"Please step aside quickly."

"Whoosh~" Yusuf Zuck quickly cleared the official road along with some insignificant figures, and then he saw eight people approaching, five men and three women!

Indeed, five men and three women, the same eight people he had once encountered.

Goodman Family’s Steven Goodman, Nash Family’s Qi Mei, Torres Family’s Abdiel Torres, Watts Family’s Lawrance Watts, Arellano Family’s Savannah Arellano, Berger Family’s Nolan Berger, Xia Family’s Yu He, and Schwartz Family’s Dennis Schwartz.

Still the direct descendants of The Eight Great Families who had once pursued him in the Lower Realm, they had actually appeared here.

Although Yusuf Zuck had changed his appearance a few days ago, at this moment his body still tensed up, because the pressure these eight people had put on him back then was too great, too terrifying. The sheer power of these eight left him with no means to resist, so seeing them again, even though he harbored hatred, he had no intention to fight or seek revenge.

At least for now, he dared not even utter the word ’revenge,’ as he had no right to do so.

He was also aware of the capabilities of these eight, so he truly feared that they might recognize him, sense his presence.

"My goodness, it’s Goodman Family’s young master Steven Goodman."

"Nash Family’s Miss Qi Mei."

"Watts Family’s young master."

"Xia Family’s Yu He."

...

When those divine beings saw these eight people, they immediately recognized them and called out their names. These eight people also have a notable reputation in the divine realm.

"What’s the situation? Brother Zhao, are these eight very famous?" Yusuf Zuck suddenly asked quietly to Zhao Qian, who was very eloquent and seemed to know everything.

"Well, quite famous, yes. These eight are the sons and daughters handling external affairs for The Eight Great Families, all from the direct line, but they are not successors or anything, just children of the direct line," Zhao Qian replied.

"I’m a bit confused," Yusuf Zuck scratched his head.

"Hehe," Zhao Qian gave a faint smile, "Actually, it’s quite simple. Steven Goodman of the Goodman Family, he is the ninth son born to the current eldest son of the family, meaning he is the grandson of the Family Head, with very pure blood."

"Lawrance Watts is the grandson of the Watts Family, also from the bloodline of the legitimate wife."

"Nash Seven Sisters too, her father isn’t the Clan Leader of the Nash Family, but he deals with the family’s affairs, her grandfather is the Clan Leader!"

"So, they are all direct grandchildren, right?" Yusuf Zuck thought for a moment.

"Yes, all direct grandchildren, children born to the sons of the legitimate wives of Clan Leaders!"

"Understood," Yusuf Zuck nodded, it’s actually easy to understand, being the grandchildren of the main room. The Clan Leaders of The Eight Great Families wouldn’t have just one wife, thus the main room children are the legitimate, and those from secondary rooms are considered concubines.

"So, what are their Cultivation Levels?" Yusuf Zuck asked again.

"A few years ago I heard they were Lower Heavenly Gods, but now they seem to have become Middle Heavenly Gods. Their families favor them with resources, and they often travel outside, making them all individuals of great talent and fortune."

"However, no matter how much fortune they have, they can never take over the supreme position of the family. They are legitimate grandchildren but born of concubines, will never be able to take over the great position of the family, and in The Eight Great Families there are many extraordinary individuals whom they cannot compare to. They are just more favored in the family, that kind which people find likable."

"Oh, just Middle Heavenly Gods, then among these hundred thousand people there must be Upper Heavenly Gods, right? If Upper Heavenly Gods compete with them for treasures, would they face retaliation?"

"That won’t happen," Zhao Qian shook his head, "You can compete with them for Magic Treasures and rare items, and even fight with them, as long as you don’t kill them, their families won’t interfere. This is also a kind of laissez-faire situation, a reflection of fairness in the Heavenly Realm. Otherwise, wherever they go, if they point at a tree and claim it’s theirs, would the Heavenly Realm become their property? So, no need to worry too much, as long as you don’t kill them, even if you cripple them, their families won’t trouble you!"

"Of course, if you are of the God King Level, that’s a different story. If someone of the God King Level fights them, it’s bullying, so their parents would come looking for you!"

Steven Goodman and the other seven walked along the official road without regard to others, and then began climbing the mountain.

However, when they were climbing the mountain, some people had already gone up before them, and those people did not make way or even glance at them since the poorest Cultivation Level among them was Middle Heavenly God.

"Are there any Divine Kings on the mountain?" Yusuf Zuck asked curiously.

"If it were ordinary artifacts, there wouldn’t be a need for Divine Kings to come and compete, since Divine Kings also have their dignity to consider. So, among these people, there may be Divine Kings, but they’re likely disguised, hiding among them!"

"A Divine King is a ruler, a ruler should have the demeanor of one, how could they compete with us over uncertain artifacts?"

"Although artifacts are precious, every Divine King possesses them."

"That means, even if Divine Kings are here, considering their status, they can only act covertly, not openly!" Yusuf Zuck asked.

"Correct, Divine Kings fighting with us, people without insights and backgrounds, for Magic Treasures would be laughable if it got out! Plus, this place is so chaotic, there likely aren’t any major treasures emerging. If there were major treasures, The Eight Great Families would send people to maintain order, then set up isolation zones, nobody irrelevant would be allowed within thousands of miles, only they would be searching for treasures. So, there shouldn’t be any treasures important enough for The Eight Great Families to care about here. That’s why they only sent a few direct grandchildren to check out the situation!"

"Got it, let’s head up too." Yusuf Zuck was a bit impatient, having heard Zhao Qian’s explanations, he already had some ideas!
