Chapter 416 (1/2)

Taeya (3)

“Master… I wanted to visit but I didn’t expect the sudden change in political conditions at Soaring Sky… And it was that eighth princess, the princess you once wronged. I can’t imagine how cruel she must be to murder her own father. Thank goodness she didn’t do anything to you or I would never live….

“I heard you and your family escaped and built Ye City…

“You know, I could’ve given you all a place to stay if you had nowhere to go… I’ll always be there for you…

“Once this war is over, I will visit immediately.”

The little tiger girl spaced out once again, muttering in circles in her heart. She was waiting for the day she could meet her master once again. ‘She’ was Tigress.

She regretted not being present during such a critical moment. If anything had happened to Ye Lang then, even she didn’t know how she would react.

“Miss, miss…” The people around her noticed, gently bringing her back to reality. They were used to this.

“Ah, what?” asked Tigress.

“What should we do now?” asked the people around her.

Tigress was calm. “Don’t worry, tell me everything in detail. Let me look at the plans again.”

“It’s like this, as what we planned, we…” They explained battle conditions to her in detail, drawing everything out on the sand table.

“Hmm, this feels familiar…” Tigress felt like she had seen this before but thought it was impossible after giving it some thought.

There was no time for that though. Tigress ignored her feeling to focus on the immediate task ahead- planning their next move.

Where did Tigress learn how to do this? Well, Ye Lang once spent some time learning about military strategies and the use of ancient war techniques and showed them to her on a sand table.

Occasionally, for fun, he would let Tigress play the opposing armies. Tigress would always lose though because Ye Lang’s strategies were too unpredictable. However, from this, Tigress’ strategic skills skyrocketed.

However, she never told anyone about this. No one initially expected her to have such a skill.

This war was the first time she used her skills in war planning and her martial arts skills. They were supposed to be outnumbered and at a disadvantage but when she showed up, she forced the scales back to a balance.

If it wasn’t for Ye Lang, her army would’ve had the upper hand at this point, likely winning the war soon.

However, if Ye Lang was helping the other side, would they beat Tigress then? We can’t tell for sure because other than mapping out strategies, Tigress led the armies herself. She could annihilate crowds just with her Yang Family Spear Techniques. Her presence greatly increased her army’s morale too.

A few days later, Athena and the rest of the leaders were once again gathered around the sand table. They were stuck once again, their opponents had forced the battle back into a stalemate.
