Chapter 1414: Chapter 1413: The Meaning of Life’s Existence

"Ancient Celestial Beasts were beings that stood alongside the gods." Mrs. Santiago and her husband Martin Huppe were gods born and raised in the Heavenly Realm, and also in the Divine Lord Realm. Not only have they both stolen many Magic Treasures and rare curiosities, but they’ve also stolen some ancient texts that have never been made public.

Therefore, the two of them have a very good understanding of the Ancient Celestial Beasts.

"According to the legends, many of the Ancient deities were supreme giants born from the union between humans and Celestial Beasts. In the Ancient Era, these beings played important roles. For example, in the Ancient Era, someone known as the ’Mother of Winds and Rains,’ the rumored ’Yao Ji’, was said to be neither entirely leopard nor entirely human, neither beast nor human. There were others like Lady Shang, the Great Saint of the Black Wind, and the Yellow Robe Ancestor, all of whom were either Celestial Beasts or hybrids of humans and Celestial Beasts."

"The standing of Celestial Beasts alongside the gods made them extremely fearsome beings during the Ancient Era."

"However, overnight, both the Ancient deities and the Celestial Beasts disappeared, or at least, no powerful Celestial Beasts have appeared on the Heavenly Continent since. But rumors persist that in the polar regions to the east, south, west, and north, there are countless Celestial Beasts."

"Of course, these are not just rumors. Your brother and I were once being hunted and fled southward, eventually entering the South Wilderness. The further south we went, the more numerous and varied the Celestial Beasts we encountered, with countless powerful ones among them."

"Until now, not a single person in the Heavenly Realm has been able to delve deep into the polar regions, because everyone knows there are countless Celestial Beasts there as powerful as beings in the Dignity Realm!"

"Nevertheless, for reasons unknown, Celestial Beasts dare not encroach on the Heavenly Continent. There may be some minor monsters on the Mainland, but no major ones."

"Moreover, according to rumors, a large majority of Demon Cultivators, Demon Emperors, and demon immortals who ascend to the Heavenly Realm from All Heavens and Myriad Realms have been led away by Celestial Beasts."

"Yes, I’ve noticed that there seem to be very few divine beings with demon bodies on the Heavenly Continent," Yusuf Zuck nodded and said.

"True, there are very few. There once were people who conducted experiments, helping three demon immortals in the Immortal Realm Cross the Tribulation and Ascend, while people from the Upper Realm guided them. However, curiously, although they ascended together, only one was guided through, the whereabouts of the other two remain unknown."

"It can be said that two-thirds of the Demon Cultivators from the Lower Realm, after their Ascension, did not enter the Heavenly Continent. Only one-third of the Demon Cultivators ascended to the Heavenly Continent and transformed into divine beings!"

Yusuf Zuck nodded, "So, the Southeast Righteous Army is colluding with the external Celestial Beasts, and the person just now was a Celestial Son, and also a Celestial Beast!"

"I don’t know if The Eight Great Families are aware of this. If they aren’t, it could be troublesome. We should report this news to them!" Mrs. Santiago said, "If the Celestial Beasts cause chaos, then our Heavenly Continent is in peril. Therefore, I would rather stand with The Eight Great Families to resist the Celestial Beasts!"

"Indeed." Martin Huppe also nodded, "Although we may be bandits or thieves, after all, we are divine beings. The conflicts between divine beings and The Eight Great Families are internal issues, but once the Celestial Beasts interfere, I’m afraid the good days for the gods of the Heavenly Realm will truly be over."

"Let’s not rush to a decision." Yusuf Zuck pondered and said, "The Eight Great Families must have made preparations for this setup, they are well-informed and might know more than we do."

"Besides, the return of the righteous and nefarious deities is imminent, the gods are coming back, so in this grand current, we might not be able to stop anything, and can only go with the flow."

"You’re speaking irresponsibly. We are divine beings; we should protect our homeland together!" Mrs. Santiago retorted, staring at him.

Yusuf Zuck shrugged his shoulders, "Sorry, but I don’t have a sense of belonging to The Eight Great Families. Maybe the return of the ancient gods is a good thing?"

"The return of the Celestial Beasts, that’s definitely not a good thing!" Mrs. Santiago said anxiously.

"Whether they can return or not is still up in the air, why the rush? For now, we can just wait and see, and not make any rash decisions!"

Mrs. Santiago wanted to continue, but Martin Huppe grabbed her hand and shook his head, saying, "Listen to the big boss!"

Visibly upset, Mrs. Santiago pulled away from Martin Huppe’s grasp and then glared at both Yusuf Zuck and her husband, remaining silent.

Yusuf Zuck smiled faintly, then lowered his voice and said, "Honestly, who plays the boss in the Heavenly Realm is none of my business. I came to Eternal City just to find my woman. Once I meet up with her, I’ll lead a carefree life. If the Heavenly Realm can’t accommodate me, I can go to the Immortal Realm, right? If the Immortal Realm won’t do, isn’t it fine for me to return to my homeland in the Mortal World?"

"I don’t have any grand ambitions or lofty goals; I simply want to live my life happily with my wife and children, with my brothers and sisters, and die naturally when the time comes. That is the true meaning of life for a being!"

"You’re not afraid of death? You don’t desire immortality?" Mrs. Santiago cast a glance at him and said.

"The one who wants immortality is a damn bastard. What’s the point of living forever? Having life and death, being part of the cycle, that’s what life is all about."

...

Meanwhile, Yusuf Zuck, along with Ghost Roth, Sofia Nelson, and the three big bandit leaders, Mo Wu, had already left the tavern. They took several turns and entered into a residence, and from there, accessed an underground passageway. After traveling underground for two hours, they entered into a subterranean chamber.

This was their secret hideout, an underground base, and what was said here could not be heard by anyone above ground.

"Who are those three? Send someone to investigate, find out their identities, especially that talkative one. I sense a dangerous aura from him; he’s dangerous, very dangerous, extremely dangerous!" Yusuf Zuck’s hands were trembling with anger at this moment. That person had given him an extremely dangerous feeling, something he could not tolerate and that also terrified him.

"How did that person realize that you are... That’s impossible!"

"Yes, they know who we are, but we have no idea who they are!"

"It’s so weird!"

Both Sofia Nelson and the three Mo Wu were guessing the identities of these three people.

"It seems that person sensed my demonic aura," Yusuf Zuck said after taking a deep breath.

"Sensed your demonic aura? Could it be... is it... is it Martin Huppe? Legend has it that he can easily collect monsters, he’s the nemesis of demons!" Ghost Roth exclaimed in shock.

"Could it really be him? How could he possibly have two Superior Divine Masters by his side?" Sofia Nelson shook her head.

"Yes, two Superior Divine Masters? There are only a few Superior Divine Masters on the Mainland, and they are all well-known, yet who are those two accompanying him?"

"Maybe it’s not even Martin Huppe. He’s hiding in Mount Xu Mi, so what’s he doing in Eternal City? Is he looking for death?"

"No matter who they are, send my spies in Eternal City to keep a close watch on them, cling to them, and ambush and kill the three of them once they leave the city!"

"Understood." Ghost Roth immediately took out a communication jade slip to transmit the orders.

At that moment, Yusuf Zuck sat down and bit his fingertip, dotting his forehead. A ray of blood light suddenly flickered several times and then disappeared.

In this instant, he seemed to enter a state of meditation, his entire demeanor enigmatic, and the expression on his face seemed to continuously change, becoming respectful for a moment, composed the next, and then occasionally breaking into a flirtatious smile.

He seemed mad, with his facial expression changing ceaselessly.

After a full hour, when the blood light above his head flashed again, that was when he abruptly opened his eyes.

"Contact has been made. At the latest, in ten years, our people will enter the Heavenly Continent in large numbers. When that time comes, the era of the Heavenly Continent will come to an end!"
