Chapter 1426 - 1425: Divine Master Finger
No one expected that Tyler Nash, the undead demon, would cause trouble the moment he left God’s Altar—he claimed that Ember Vance was his younger cousin, and since her husband hadn’t divorced her and she hadn’t flirted with other men, it was inappropriate to force her into marrying someone else.
His voice was high-pitched, not quite male nor female, with a sinister undertone, especially in his gaze, which carried a fiendishly odd feeling.
Yusuf Zuck hadn’t anticipated that this undead demon would... would actually stand up for himself, stand up for Ember Vance!
Of course, with a transparent heart, Yusuf Zuck had quickly understood: that undead demon, when in the Lower Realm, even wept when he saw his own death. It was clear he valued familial bonds but was a bit twisted and deviant in his heart.
Deep down he was good-hearted, just not whole. Moreover, he had once said how much fun it was to compete with him.
No matter how they fought, made a ruckus, or even killed each other, that was a matter between two brothers. But if someone bullied his brother, trying to force his sister-in-law upon another man—that crossed a line. This was not only bullying his brother but also bullying Tyler Nash himself.
In fact, over the years, Yusuf Zuck hadn’t fully understood this undead demon’s psyche. They had fought several times; sometimes, the demon spared him, and other times he spared the demon.
Their relationship had evolved beyond simple hatred. Over countless years, both had their own fate and progress, and as they grew stronger, the absence of the other felt like a missing piece.
Just like for Tyler Nash—if he became the ruler but Yusuf Zuck died, what good would it be to be the ruler? To want to beat up Yusuf Zuck and having no one to clash with.
So, as they progressed, both hoped the other would survive; because only then could they keep on fighting endlessly.
The human heart is most complex. Tyler Nash had long stopped hating Yusuf Zuck. The last time they met, he even said that only the two of them were left in the Nash family, but they still had to fight and wrestle as necessary.
