207 A Tooth for a Tooth, Double the Payback (1/2)
When A Xia reappeared as Tiger King on the Crown Cloud Peak, the time that passed was actually less than half a day.
The once in a sixty-year world-changing event of the Emperor Essence Flow has just ended. The golden light gradually dissipated and the morning sun hung over the horizon. On the Crown Cloud Peak, hundreds of Beast Master School’s disciples and ten Jindan Stage Elders gathered together. They were unable to agree on how they should respond the present situation, endlessly quarreling.
”Elder Gong Yang, now what should we do?”
Several disciples gathered around an elder. Their anxiousness and helplessness were revealed in their speech and mannerism.
Usually, this Elder Gong Yang won the trust of Tiger King the most. Except for a special case like A Xia, he was almost considered by the others as the second in command here. Now that Beast Master School Division had suffered a major setback, when their pillar was no longer there, naturally, some people turned to him.
Unfortunately, Elder Gong Yang could not even take care of himself. When he presided over the beast collar, he was sneak attacked by Fenrir, which nearly broke his Golden Core into two halves. At this time, he didn’t even have the time to harmonize his breathing to raise his energy, much less worry about how to stabilize the morale of the confused disciples to indicate the way forward?
However, some of the elders were without injuries and still have their full strength. They disagreed with each other and just kept quarreling. Yet, no one could come up with effective methods.
”The way I see it, we join our forces and attack him once again. I don’t believe he can still unleash the spirits of all living things! Due to previous suppression from Great Elder’s Nascent Soul, he is now heavily injured, and there’s no time to heal. What power could he still able to produce?”
”Humph, if you have the ability, why don’t you try him yourself. Since you think he has no fighting power anymore, then what are you if not a dignified high-level Jindan Stage Elder? The opponent is only a Xudan, you should be able to take him out in two or three moves.”
”Hey, surnamed Liu, are you trying to instigate here!?”
”I just have more brain than you! The other side dare to let the immortal beast to transform in front of us, so obviously, their cards at hand are enough, how could you look at the surface part alone such as the cultivation base? Even the Great Elder was killed by him, do you think you are better than Great Elder?”
”F*ck you Liang Yu. Great Elder has always been good to you, yet after he died, not only you don’t think about how to take revenge, you even find excuses to shrink your responsibility, do you f*cking still call yourself a man!?”
”It is precisely because of the death of the Great Elder that we must be more cautious. For the preservation of Beast Master School, you two don’t want to be the one that instigates an infighting…”
One of the Jindan Stage Elders suddenly stopped his words, because, in his line of sight, there was an incredible figure.
”Tell me who died again?”
The noises in the hall subsided in an instant, and more than a hundred pairs of bewildered eyes turned to look at one place, towards the burly man and his tiger head.
”Great Elder!?”
”Sir Tiger King!?”
”Senior Brother Lei Zhen!?”
All of a sudden, numerous exclaims sounded out in unison. People looked at the person who was supposed to be dead in front of them in disbelief. Though they could see that the person was weak and wounded, that unique magical power fluctuation ignited the confidence in the heart of the people.
”Sure enough, you’re still alive. I knew that you’re not going to die easily!”
An elder was filled with tears.
Just now, the hundreds of people were quarreling nonstop in the hall, with loud and clear voices that even gravel rustled and fall… It wasn’t that there were much infightings, but rather a way to mask their panic.
Gong Yang, Liang Yu, and the other elders could not hold the scene. The disciples were at a loss, and the remaining several Jindan Stage Elders each has their own plan. Some people even came up with an idea to surrender to that young Xudan cultivator!
Without someone with enough authority to suppress the situation, the hundreds of people of Beast Master School would fall apart.
”Humph, a bunch of waste!”
The same scolding voice sounded a bit less domineering compared to the past one year. However, for these people, it was like a sound of nature. They felt that their hearts were filled with warmth, no longer was there any hesitation or uneasiness.
This was the effect of the Great Elder Tiger King. His words alone could end all the disputes and stabilize the morale.
”Great Elder, please tell us what should we do next?”
Elder Gong Yang managed to ask in one breath the question that was in everyone’s heart.
”Humph, you still want to ask me this? Have you forgotten the rule of Beast Master School? Barged in into our sect’s affair, broke our more than a year plan, robbed the immortal beast moon spirit, wounded many disciples and spirit beasts, and even almost killed me, do you think we can just let all of this go?”
Tiger King said and then coldly laughed. Killing intent filled the air as he said, ”A tooth for a tooth, double the payback!”
People were both startled and gratified.
He was indeed Tiger King. Though rough in character, this Great Elder would shelter them from rain no matter what!
However, even though they were relieved, they still couldn’t relax their vigilance. The always cautious Elder Liang Yu loudly warned, ”Sir Tiger King, those several people brazenly stood in the Full Moon Valley for the whole night. Though it is possible that it is just a deception, most likely they have particularly powerful cards at hand, so we must be careful to act.”
”Be careful? Absurd! Previously, when I sent out my Nascent Soul out of my body, wasn’t that being careful? This so-called careful act is just an excuse for your own cowardice!”
With that, Tiger King no longer paid heed to the hesitation of elders and disciples. He turned around and went towards the direction of the Full Moon Valley.
