Chapter 614 - Taking Over Gigante Forest - Part 5 (1/2)
”Put your spear down!” The catgirl immediately ordered her comrades to step down, and their mission was to talk, not fight. Even so, the man's words triggered her too, but she could control her emotion well and did not show it to Tang Shaoyang.
”Calm down, you two! Remember our task and don't disappoint, The Chief!” She added with a clear tone. Her yellow eyes remained looking at Tang Shaoyang. ”Since you know our Leader, you should know his power as well. Do you think you can win against him?”
”I see, so you know we are targeting the Beast Coven.” Tang Shaoyang nodded his head and glanced at Aki. His gaze told the rat beastment that there was someone who ratted out their plan to the Beast Coven.
”I know how strong your leader is, but do you know how strong I am?” He shook his head at those words. They were trying to intimidate him with Alton's past glory, and that method would never work on him.
”This talk is not going anywhere.. You are wasting my time now. Do you still have something to talk about with me? If you don't have anything else, you can leave. We will meet again on the battlefield.” Tang Shaoyang had no intention to kill these three. If he killed these three, it would be hard for him to subdue the Beast Coven.
The catgirl observed the man's calm expression for a moment before getting up. ”Let's leave.” The two panther heads were still glaring at him. Even though he told the truth, the two beastmen still resented him for what he said about their leader.
As the emissaries left the house, Aki approached him. ”It's okay for them to go like that, Great Lord? Shouldn't we kill them instead, so they can't inform the Beast Coven that we are attacking them?”
The rat beastmen was quite concerned, and he thought it would be better to catch The Beast Coven in surprise instead of openly attacking the Beast Coven. No matter what, the Beast Coven was still the four great tribes.
”It doesn't matter. If we kill the emissaries, it would be hard to force the Beast Coven to surrender. They would fight to their last breath instead of surrender to us, and our purpose is to conquer them, not slaughtering them.” Tang Shaoyang waved his hand at Aki. ”Get the army ready. We will move in ten minutes.”

Just like Aki predicted, they reached the Beast Coven's territory within a day trip. Within that one day, Tang Shaoyang's force increased as more tribes joined under his wing.
Tang Shaoyang stopped at the border of the Beast Coven's territory. Just like Aki told him, the Beast Coven was prepared to welcome them, and the Beast Coven's force blocked their advance at the border.
Tang Shaoyang immediately noticed the Chief of the Beast Coven, confirming his conjecture that the leader of the Beast Coven was indeed a human. An old man with long white hair and wrinkles on his face, even so, the old man's posture was not that weak of an old man.
Despite his age, the old man radiated a strong aura. Tang Shaoyang could see the blazing mana from the old man, indicating the old man was not normal. He tried to use [Basic Detection], but it did not work. So he was clueless if the old man had reached Legend Rank or still Primordial Rank.
'Is he your Commander Knight, Rosalie?' He asked The Flame Empress for affirmation the old man was Commander Alton.
