Chapter 1623: Chapter 1643: Didn’t Eat

"Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang~" Yusuf Zuck swiftly delivered five consecutive slashes, severing five transparent chains.

The moment the five chains snapped, the whole body of the Rat King tensed, and Yusuf Zuck leaped down from the back of the Heavenly Demon King, standing right beneath his nose!

The Heavenly Demon King didn’t move, only rolling his eyes, and inside his body, it was as if thunder was roaring, emitting a booming sound, his bones clashing together, and even Yusuf Zuck could hear the rapid flow of blood inside him!

He was enormous, and he hadn’t moved in a very long time!

The blood flowed for about three minutes, and thunder boomed inside his body for three minutes, then suddenly, a white light flashed, and both Yusuf Zuck and the Rat King found themselves blinded, unable to see anything.

Then, a foul stench filled the air, a smell of halitosis, causing the Rat King to heave violently and nearly puke.

Yet... Yusuf Zuck remained motionless, not even the slightest movement!

"You clearly know I’m a bad person, you know that once you release me, I might eat you, yet why do you still free me?" The Heavenly Demon King’s voice sounded amidst the gradually fading white light, and his teeth had turned white, his tongue red, gently licking Yusuf Zuck’s face.

Indeed, he seemed to regard Yusuf Zuck as a delicacy, gently and reluctantly licking him, saliva and foul odor splattering on Yusuf Zuck’s face.

Yusuf Zuck still didn’t move, nor did he panic. Instead, he smiled faintly and said, "In our world, the Buddha says, ’If I don’t enter Hell, who will?’ Saving you is building my karma and fortune accumulation, and whether you eat me or not is up to whether you would incur any further sinful deeds."

"Being with you for nearly a year, you called me teacher countless times, and as a teacher, it is natural to treat one’s student well. A student may err, but a teacher has the responsibility to guide the student back on the right path."

"As for your intention to eat me, I just want to tell you, I am not Monk Fuentes; eating me won’t grant you eternal life!"

"I don’t seek eternal life; I merely want to taste flesh, so you and that plump rat shall be my first meal after rebirth, dear teacher. Thank you for your teachings. However, I’m a bad student, and I’m sorry to disappoint you!" The Heavenly Demon King said, opening his bloody maw, swallowing Yusuf Zuck whole.

"Master..." Though terrified earlier, the Rat King, upon witnessing his master being swallowed, drew courage from nowhere, pulling out a long knife and charging forward.

"Ha~" The Heavenly Demon King exhaled through his nose, sending the Rat King flying like a kite with a broken string.

The Heavenly Demon King stood up, his eyes continuously darting around, his face seemingly flushed. However, at this point, he gently opened his mouth once more.

As he opened his mouth, the Rat King saw his master still standing inside the Heavenly Demon King’s mouth, unmoving, not fighting back, and not displaying fear, merely smiling faintly!

Moreover, his smiling face was covered with a layer of golden light, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, Yusuf Zuck’s entire head turned gold!

Indeed, at this moment, Yusuf Zuck achieved the Golden Body Great Accomplishment.

The Heavenly Demon King gently extended his tongue, placing Yusuf Zuck onto the ground while giving him a curious look.

"You are a good teacher, thank you. If fate allows, we’ll meet again!" The Heavenly Demon King smiled appreciatively at Yusuf Zuck before tearing open space and vanishing in a flash!

The Rat King quickly returned to Yusuf Zuck’s side, looking shocked and confused. "Master, why didn’t he eat you? How is that possible?"

"Do you remember the first sentence of the Three Character Classic?" Yusuf Zuck wiped the saliva off his face.

"At the beginning, human nature is inherently good!" the Rat King replied.

"That’s why he didn’t eat me!" Yusuf Zuck shrugged.

"Are you saying he has a good side too? But he clearly took you into his mouth!"

"He was just trying to scare me, to see how I would react. In fact, when I released him, I already knew he wouldn’t eat me!"

"Why?" The Rat King was puzzled.

"Because he isn’t just any Heavenly Demon King, he’s a clever Heavenly Demon King. He knows I’m not easily devoured!"

"You have to realize, someone who can sever his chains, is it possible that they could cut open his stomach?"

"Absolutely, they could cut it open!" The Rat King nodded immediately.

"For a Golden Body that even the Epoch Etching Blade cannot pierce, do you think he can chew it?"

"Impossible to chew!"

"So, he knew he couldn’t chew me, knew that swallowing me would most likely lead to me slicing open his stomach, so how dare he eat me?"

"Of course, all the time spent together, along with my teachings of benevolence and morality, had an effect. I remember telling him stories about ingratitude and reciprocating kindness."

"So, eating me would not benefit him and would be ungrateful, so why should he eat?"

"Moreover, I can confirm that his mindset truly changed — his seed of evil has dimmed significantly. Everyone has dual nature, and I believe he has a good side. I also believe his future will be more remarkable, and it is precisely this belief that led me to forge a complete Golden Body!"

"That scared me so much; it turns out you knew all along that he wouldn’t eat you? Anyway, congratulations on achieving the Golden Body Great Accomplishment, Master!" the Rat King congratulated with a clasped fist.

"I didn’t expect saving this Heavenly Demon King would lead to a Golden Body achievement, an unexpected delight. This now completes my virtuous deeds!"

"Shall we continue on our journey then?" The Rat King was delighted. His master had performed a great benevolent act, and achieving the Golden Body after this act made him genuinely happy for his master!

"Let’s go!" Yusuf Zuck laughed heartily, lightly tracing the void with a small knife, revealing the black hole world outside.

Yusuf Zuck and the Rat King jumped out at once.

But as they leaped out, both were taken aback momentarily, for the Heavenly Demon King hadn’t left!

Seeing Yusuf Zuck and the Rat King come out, the Heavenly Demon King suddenly flashed a grin: "Teacher, where are you headed?"

"I don’t know!" Yusuf Zuck shook his head. "I don’t know where I’m going!"

"Haven’t I told you before? My master and I wander aimlessly. Master Shaun blesses the world, and big guy, thankfully you didn’t eat him earlier, or it would have been trouble for you!" The Rat King sneered.

"The teacher patiently taught me virtue and morality, neither desiring my Magic Treasures nor seeking reward. A sage, a remarkable person, the first true benevolent person I’ve encountered as a Heavenly Demon King, and given the teacher’s Golden Body Great Accomplishment, it is destiny. Thus, even if I’m vile, I can’t harm my teacher; I should strive to be like Kade Dyer — that’s what it means to be a person!"

"Then why are you still hanging around here?" The Rat King asked once more.

"I want... I want to know the teacher’s name." The Heavenly Demon King looked at Yusuf Zuck.

Yusuf Zuck pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "A person’s name is merely a label; what difference does it make whether you know it or not? Go on, fate will bring us together again."

"But there’s one more thing to tell you: as you walk the world, do not indulge recklessly. The current state of affairs may not be the same as in your era, and today’s world might not be the same as it once was. So be cautious in your journey. One should not only have martial prowess but also wisdom, and I believe your intelligence can conquer all!"

"Thank you for your guidance, teacher. The Heavenly Demon King will remember this deeply in his heart..." This time, the Heavenly Demon King formally and profoundly bowed to Yusuf Zuck!
