Boiling Beast Bloodline-Chapter 2149 - 664: Hornet’s Nest (Part 2)
And the culprit behind this tragedy is still at large!
Hesfield chieftain’s heart bleeds in pain.
Fortunately, Mateus had left him a bone-linked treasure box back then; otherwise, the chieftain wouldn’t have known how long it would take to receive this bad news, delaying the time of avenging his blood feud.
Hesfield learned from the mouth of the witch Lillian just how powerful his enemy was. Such a level of force would bring the entire Coal Goliath tribe to ruin, even if they all came out in full force. Therefore, after a brief hesitation, the chieftain agreed to have Lillian take charge of negotiating a joint effort with the Demon Clan’s army.
However, the hatred of the Goliaths must ultimately be avenged by the Goliaths themselves. This strong belief is unshakable in the hearts of Chieftain Hesfield and all the Coal Goliaths.
The enemy holds an indisputable, nearly invincible strength, but the Coal Goliaths have their own ultimate force at hand!
When life longevity nears its end, every Coal Goliath who is buried underground with the secret technique by the attendant priest, has a chance, after countless years of slumber, to be transformed by the aura of time and earth into a supremely powerful, unparalleled "Diamond Goliath." It must be admitted that most Coal Goliaths buried underground rot into a pile of bones over time, just like other wisdom races, but there are always a very few who manage to endure that trial.
Beneath the tribe’s Pyramid Sacrificial Altar lie four safely slumbering ancestors, the oldest of whom has been asleep for years even Hesfield chieftain’s great-great-grandfather does not know the exact duration.
If the Coal Goliath tribe had the ability to seek revenge themselves now, Hesfield Chieftain would be loath to wake these ancestors—once awakened, regardless of the extent to which their bodies have turned into diamond, their lifespan remains finite from their past life, and they will not survive much longer.
For the first time in history, and possibly the last, the Coal Goliaths are being pushed to a dead-end by a formidable enemy!

Coincidentally, the Jade Emperor is also at a dead-end.
Three days ago, the head of the martial world on Silk Continent, a valiant and heroic avenger, and the ruler with absolute control over jade, led his band of brave heroes to successfully capture another Demon World City.
Counting the achievements, along the way, forty-four cities have been swept through by the Flower Court, and everyone with silver-threaded eyes was slaughtered without exception.
After seizing this city, the Jade Emperor and all the Flower Court people, like a flock of weary migratory birds, had to settle and rest on the spot; they even began considering whether to transform this city into their stronghold, ending the previous way of looting like locusts. This idea was not a whim. After all this time in a foreign land, the Jade Emperor hadn’t retrieved the precious "Wealth God Jade Bowl," instead, the harsh natural environment has left them both physically and mentally exhausted. After the initial novelty vanished, it was replaced by increasing survival pressure. Continuing this nomadic life would inevitably lead to grievances among his loyal followers.
Once the people’s hearts scatter, the team becomes hard to lead. As a forward-thinking leader, the Jade Emperor cannot wait until his loyal guild enforcers are full of complaints before making plans.
Initially, he came to this bizarre world, with two suns and two moons, burning hot by day and freezing cold by night, mainly because, as rumored by Tang Zang’s fifth prince, the inhabitants here were of the same race as the thief bandit who plundered Yi Hua Palace.
After dispatching spies to conduct a thorough investigation and confirming the information was accurate, the Jade Emperor did not hesitate to bring all his armed forces from the Silk Continent to this unfamiliar land. He knew full well that the Tang Zang government was eager to see him leave the Silk Continent as soon as possible, which was why the fifth prince eagerly approached and offered to help teleport the Flower Court’s army over long distances—to ensure he would never return.
The Jade Emperor was absolutely unconcerned. From the moment he decided to leave the Silk Continent, he knew there was no turning back—not only for him, but none of the Silk Divine Beasts had ever heard of nor believed that the Tang Zang’s scholars had invented a long-distance teleportation array!
In these times, if one place doesn’t welcome you, another will. Strength matters everywhere. Being able to dominate on the Silk Continent means one can equally make a name elsewhere. The Jade Emperor has absolute confidence in his skills; building a presence in a foreign land shouldn’t be a problem for him or the Flower Court. This expedition brought together the essence of Yi Hua Palace, including the four Floras, Flower Masters, Flower Friends, Flower Maids, and numerous humanoid Divine Beasts. The myriad of bizarre talents from the Three Mountains and Five Peaks, among them powerful quasi-super and super-ranked Divine Beasts, were countless.
Integrating into human society had already become tiresome for the Jade Emperor. This time, he planned to be his own master and establish the order of the Divine Beasts.
The only slight regret was the other three grassroots kings of the Silk Continent only supported the Jade Emperor materially and did not gather elite troops and commanders to conquest with him. Regarding this regret, the Jade Emperor harbored some complaints and secretly ridiculed the short-sightedness of the Dragon King, Nether Emperor, and True Monarch.
