Although there was a very powerful group of beast tamers in human cities and many people dreamt of becoming very powerful beast tamers, these people only considered things from the point of view of the beast tamers.
In reality, they had completely ignored the soul beasts’ feelings.
Soul beasts were the weakest of all races.
On the surface, it was the humans who relied on the suppressive force of their soul power to attract soul beasts to become their combat partners. In reality, this was also a kind of selection by the soul beasts of the humans.
In reality, although the soul beasts did not say it out loud, they scoffed at the human race in their hearts.
The entire human race was a giant piece of trash. The human race itself had no fighting power at all. Could they only rely on the other races to fight for them?
The key point was that beast tamers were very funny creatures.
It was clearly just the strength of their soul beasts that was powerful, but many beast tamers had mentally taken the strength of their soul beasts to be their own.
In fact, a beast tamer without a soul beast was nothing.
On the other hand, if these soul beasts were to leave the human race’s city, they would not be able to defeat the other foreign races at all.
They were one of the most inferior races among the myriad races, but they could actually act like tyrants in the human race’s cities.
These so-called beast tamers would sacrifice their fellow human beings to feed their soul beasts.
This allowed them to fight the other foreign races. As a result, it seemed like the beast tamers were raising the soul beasts, but in fact, the soul beasts were raising the entire human race.
‘Humans are like monkeys hugging a tree.’
‘Do these monkeys really think that they have become stronger just because they have made a contract with us’
‘Actually, what they have today is all thanks to us.’
‘And you, Zhang Tianjian, why are you being so rude? How could you speak to an invincible expert like that?’
The porcupine soul beast was ready to sever its relationship with Zhang Tianjian at any time.
As long as Yuchi gave him a look, he would definitely stand behind Yuchi and become a dog in the truest sense. At that time, he would kill Zhang Tianjian to display his loyalty.
‘But who is this expert? How did he suddenly appear?’
‘I’ve never heard of such a person before.’
‘As expected, the experts are all hiding in the deep mountains and old forests.’
The porcupine soul beast was extremely nervous.
…
A minute later, two wisps of green smoke appeared in the room.
Yuchi stood behind a floor-to-ceiling window. From the highest floor of the Department of Inspection, he looked down at the human city that stretched as far as the eye could see.
His figure was reflected on the glass window. “Why don’t you dare to treat the myriad races the same way you treat ordinary humans?”
Yuchi was taking a break from the daily grind, so he was not in a hurry.
From the moment he had met Zhang Tianjian, he had never regarded Zhang Tianjian as an opponent who could fight him.
Under such circumstances, he did not enter his hunting mode.
At this moment, Yuchi was like a young man who had just arrived from the countryside, standing behind the floor-to-ceiling window, and gazing at the vast world below. His eyes were slightly dazed.
Zhang Tianjian was surprised by Yuchi’s question.
It had been many years since someone had asked this question. This did not mean that no one had thought of it, but rather that no one dared to ask it.
Zhang Tianjian crossed his arms and held the cigarette in his mouth as if he was looking at a dying man. “You’ll never know how much effort it takes to expand the human city. There are so many powerful enemies in the outside world, so why should we still bother going there?”
“All the human cities are hidden deep undercover. Under such circumstances, it will be difficult for the myriad races to discover our existence, so we should be absolutely safe.”
“Therefore, if we have such an absolutely safe environment, why do we still need to leave this peaceful nest and fight against the myriad races?”
“You’ve never seen the myriad races, and there are very few detailed clues about the myriad races on the internet. That’s why you can ask such a childish question without knowing how powerful our enemies are. I’m not being harsh or unkind here.”
“So because the myriad races are too powerful, we humans are eternally suppressed in some corner of the wilderness?” Yuchi commented.
“Yes,” Zhang Tianjian nodded with certainty.
He laughed again.
“If the human race wants to be respected by all the myriad races, we need a lot of sacrifices.”
“However, different from other common sacrifices in wars, the ones who are sacrificed in the wars between humans and all the other races are not civilians, but beast tamers like me.”
“If you had power like me, would you be willing to sacrifice yourself in exchange for the future of those foolish people down there?”
Zhang Tianjian had already regarded Yuchi as an idealist.
In fact, the idealists had no way of propelling the human race forward and improving their stature among the myriad races.
Humans were selfish.
It was not easy for Zhang Tianjian to obtain such power, so how could he give it up so easily?
As for heroes?
They did not care about the concept of becoming some bullsh*t hero. The most disgusting thing about the human race was that they always honored their heroes after they died.
No one wanted to be a martyr. He wanted to be a living hero, worshiped by the billions of people within the human cities.
The myriad races were formidable. They completely suppressed the entire human race, and even forced the human race to hide in this corner of the wilderness.
“Kid, you want to cry after hearing that, don’t you?” Zhang Tianjian asked Yuchi.
“Ah?”
Yuchi was confused.
He did not know why Zhang Tianjian would suddenly say such a thing. After thinking about it carefully, he understood the meaning behind Zhang Tianjian’s words. Then, a rare smile appeared on his face as he looked at the endless human city below.
“I have no ties to the entire human race,” he said with a smile,” All of this is but a fleeting cloud in my eyes.”
“That includes you. I’ll completely forget about you in a few days.”
After Yuchi finished speaking, it was Zhang Tianjian’s turn to look surprised.
What did he mean by that?
Why did Yuchi suddenly say this, as if the entire human race had nothing to do with him?
You’re a human, aren’t you?
You live among other humans. How can the future of the human race not be related to you?
In reality, the answer was very simple. He, Yuchi, was not a person from this world at all.
The reason he had come to this world this time was to go all out, to climb up continuously, and reach the highest peak in this vast, wild world.
As for the sense of belonging?
That was nonsense.
He had no sense of belonging.
He did not care about what was happening around him. Even if the human race was destroyed by the myriad races one day, he would not shed a single tear.
What did the current chaotic world have to do with him?
He was not a person of this world. He had been immediately locked up in prison upon arriving here anyway, sp who would care about who?
At most, he would return to take Qin Lanyu and Fengyi away when the human race was destroyed.
As for the rest, he was neither hot-blooded, nor righteous enough to give a damn!
He just wanted to fight his way to the top.
“You think that I’m not a good person, right?” Yuchi asked in a strange manner.
“…”
Zhang Tianjian did not know what to say.
It was like a farm owner who had raised tens of billions of livestock and was constantly showing off his livestock to the passersby. He was excited, but the other people ignored him entirely.
Yuchi was just a passerby.
He looked at Zhang Tianjian with a mocking gaze. After all, the things that he cherished were meaningless to Yuchi.
Zhang Tianjian’s brows instantly furrowed. “Alright, enough of this crap. It’s time to get to the main topic!”
