Chapter 1930 Purpose

Chapter 1930 Purpose

The two of them immediately departed from the Forest of Fear, having completed all their business.

Rui had expected to spend days, if not weeks, hunting for Senior-level creatures and scanning them for memories, but surprisingly enough, they had completed their business in the Forest of Fear in a matter of hours.

Of course, Rui would never complain about getting the job done sooner than later. "What does the Divine Doctor even want from the Garden of Salvation?" Kane asked while they moved through the Beast Domain. "Honestly, what the hell is he even going through all of this for, anyway?"

It was a good question.

Unfortunately, Rui didn't have a good answer.

"He's here to diagnose his patient," Rui replied, shrugging. "That's all I was told by the Beggar Sage."

"That doesn't even make any sense."

"I don't really care about why he's here," Rui replied calmly. "As long as he heals my father, he can do whatever the hell he wants. However, knowing why he's here exactly might help us find him. So that is the only reason why I might care about his reason for venturing into the Beast Domain on his lonesome."

Rui had many thoughts about the Divine Doctor's escapades. However, he would be lying if he wasn't curious about what he wanted with the Garden of Salvation.

It sounded far-fetched to assume that he had information outside of the information that Rui had not obtained with all his political resources. If that was the case, based on everything that they both knew, Rui was unable to understand exactly what he sought from the Garden of Salvation.

"Our goal is not to find it," Rui replied. "It's to enter it."

Kane understood the subtext of what he conveyed. "So we're going to try to get in without actually finding it?"

"Exactly," Rui replied calmly. "I don't think we can find the Garden of Salvation, certainly not just by searching for it physically. If Martial Artists of higher Realms have tried and failed, then I don't think I can succeed."

"Well, then what's the point of going to the northern part of the Beast Domain to where the Garden of Salvation is supposed to be if we're not going to search for it?"

"Statistics," Rui answered. "An overwhelming proportion of people who entered the Garden of Salvation did so from the northern hemisphere of the Beast Domain, which lends some credence to the claim that it is in the north. It also increases the probability that we'll get into the Garden of Salvation."

"Makes sense," Kane admitted. "But surely there's more, right? Just going to the north of the Beast Domain is not going to do much."

"Correct," Rui replied with an uncertain tone. "I have some plans. Some of them are a bit, well, questionable."

Kane threw a dubious glance at Rui. "Just how questionable are we talking about?"

"So questionable that we will cede the right to talk smack about the Divine Doctor's questionable plans," Rui smiled wryly. "See, you two are birds of a feather."

"Is that a compliment or an insult?"

Kane remained silent, refusing to answer.
