Even though they had been the ones that had set up the meeting area, the ones to leave first were them.
The Beast Race fully held the fate of the two Stellar Kingdoms in their palms and they knew it.
So when they asked to talk alone, the two Stellar Kings revealed ugly expressions, but they still vacated the tent for the Sky Lion Lord and the Mist Pangolin Lord.
As for leaving behind methods of eavesdropping, they didn't do anything like that.
After all, they fully knew that these two lords of the Beast Race were their only hope…
Once the two Stellar Kings and their followers had left, the two lords of the Beast Race suddenly burst out into laughter.
They laughed for a long time before finally settling down.
The two of them looked at each other before the Sky Lion Lord broke the silence, "How are we going to share this once we get that kid?"
The Mist Pangolin Lord revealed a charming smile and said, "Oh, I thought that we already came to an agreement? Aren't we all going to take turns using that kid?"
The Sky Lion Lord revealed a sly smile as he said, "You and I both know that isn't effective since there's so many people who already knew about this. Instead…wouldn't it be better if we just controlled him and used him as we pleased? As long as we lend him from time to time to the others, they won't be able to say a thing."
The Mist Pangolin Lord slightly knitted her brows when she heard this, but she quickly went back to smiling as she asked, "How do you propose we…"
Before she could finish, the Sky Lion Lord suddenly slapped the table.
The Mist Pangolin Lord's subordinates were all about to draw their weapons in response to this clear act of aggression, but the Mist Pangolin Lord raised her hand to stop them. She then turned back and looked at the Sky Lion Lord with a calm look on her face.
The Sky Lion Lord had been looking at her with narrowed eyes the entire time, but seeing that she didn't even flinch in the face of his slap, he suddenly broke out in laughter as he said, "Good, very good, you're just what I'm looking for."
The Mist Pangolin Lord didn't say a thing as she waited for him to elaborate.
The Sky Lion Lord finally stopped laughing and looked at her with a serious look as he said, "I know about your little agreement with the Rainbow Peacock Lord."
The Mist Pangolin Lord had a calm look on her face, but there was a trace of surprise that appeared in her eyes. At the same time, the subordinates beside her couldn't help trembling before quickly forcing themselves to calm down.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThese subordinates were her most trusted subordinates, so they were very high ranking members of the Mist Pangolin Tribe.
They knew exactly what the Sky Lion Lord was referring to.
Seeing this, the Sky Lion Lord didn't continue acting seriously as one would expect and instead revealed a smile as he said, "I can offer you something better."
The Mist Pangolin Lord narrowed her eyes when she heard this, but she gestured with her hand to allow him to continue.
The Sky Lion Lord didn't mind this and said, "I have a connection with the Suanni Race."
This time, the Mist Pangolin Lord couldn't help revealing a visible look of shock.
The Suanni Race…that was one of the most powerful races among the entire Beast Race.
They were even strong enough to rival the Dragon and Phoenix Races at their peak and were separate from the Beast Race. However, because of a disaster that decreased the number of members that they had, they had no choice but to return to the Beast Race from being a separate member of the Myriad Race.
But because of their innate powers, they were still ranked in the top of all the races of the Beast Race.
The strongest members of their race were on par with the strongest Dragons and Phoenixes.
After a long moment of silence, the Mist Pangolin Lord gave a slight nod.
Compared to just getting this tool that could increase their power, being able to fall under the Suanni Race was the much better choice.
The Sky Lion Lord broke out in laughter again before saying, "Very good! You won't regret this!"
The Mist Pangolin Lord couldn't help looking at the Sky Lion Lord with a strange look.
She couldn't figure out how this idiot lion had built a relationship with one of the top tribes in their entire Beast Race.
Well, since she had decided to work with them, it seemed like she would have to take control of this idiot lion before anything.
So the Mist Pangolin Lord revealed a charming smile.
…
After they had left the tent, the group from the two Stellar Kingdoms came to a cave that they had prepared.
The subordinates of the two lords had already given them a description of the person they wanted them to capture. However, even without this, they would still be able to recognize this person.
In the fight, while most of their troops had been wiped out, there were those that had survived. As well, there were those that they had sent to watch over the battle that had returned.
It was from them that they had learned most of what they knew about the battle.
The rest were from the deserters that they had captured:
It should be noted that one group was still alive and one group was dead. They couldn't be more dead as they were buried deep into the ground.
After they settled, all of them had heavy looks on their faces as they sat there without saying a word.
In this situation, there wasn't anything that they could say.
They had all read the reports and they knew how important their target would be to the Mu and Ran Stellar Kingdoms. It would be almost impossible to get the target alone, let alone kidnap him while he was surrounded by guards.
Not to mention that there were all those pets that he had taken from them.
Unless they moved their ancestors, they felt that it was close to impossible to capture this target…
As for moving the ancestors, that was even more impossible.
As soon as the ancestors of the Tai and Bai Stellar Kingdoms moved, they would be surrounded and their capitals would be crushed.
With all these Stellar Kingdoms against them, it would mean that the moment that their ancestors left their capital, they would be surrounded and killed.
The only reason that no one moved on the ancestors of the Tai and Bai Stellar Kingdom now was because they knew that it would cost too much to take them down like this.
The Tai and Bai Stellar Kingdoms had their long history and had accumulated a lot of resources over the generations. Even if they had suffered a few setbacks during their current generation, it hadn't touched the foundations of these royal families.
The ancestors in the capital would have access to these resources and would be stronger than normal with their set defenses. So that was why no one charged at them and just waited to slowly whittle down the Tai and Bai Stellar Kingdoms with their forces.
But if the ancestors were to ever leave the capital where their defenses were…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf something were to ever happen to the ancestors of the Tai and Bai Stellar Kingdom, they would no longer have the right to be known as a Stellar Kingdom.
The term Stellar Kingdom came from the Star Realm. Only those that had a Star Realm Expert present would be able to call themselves a Stellar Kingdom.
Both the Tai and Bai Stellar Kingdoms only had a single Star Realm Expert to begin with, who was their ancestors. If they were to lose these ancestors, they would lose all rights to be known as a Stellar Kingdom and all their lands would be taken.
So losing their ancestors was the last thing that could happen.
So that was why they were so depressed when offered this last chance deal.
After a long period of silence, the Tai Stellar King finally slammed his hand on the table in front of him and roared, "Do none of you have any ideas at all? What are you even good for if you can't come up with a single good idea?"
Both of the Tai and Bai Stellar Kingdoms had four great families at the helm and all the family heads were currently present.
It wasn't just the heads of the Tai Stellar Kingdom's four great families that flinched, it was also the heads of the Bai Stellar Kingdom's four great families. They could see from the expression of the Bai Stellar King that they weren't going to receive any support from him, he even had a look on his face that seemed like he mirrored the Tai Stellar King's attitude.
Seeing that all of these family heads shrank back, he gave another snort and said, "Useless."
After another long period of silence, the head of the Huo Family suddenly thought of something. He turned to the head of the Bing Family who looked at him with a confused look and gestured with his eyes.
The head of the Bing Family was still confused, but before he could do anything, the Tai Stellar King noticed the interaction between them. He slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "What do you think you're doing? Don't you see that it's a serious situation here and you're just playing around? Do you think that I won't cut you down myself?"
The heads of the Huo and Bing Families quickly jolted before the Huo Family Head said, "Your majesty, it's nothing like that. It was just that I thought of something and wanted to confirm it with the Bing Family Head."
The Tai Stellar King narrowed his eyes to look at him and seeing that he was being serious, he asked, "What is it? If you can tell the Bing Family Head, you can tell all of us."
The Huo Family Head had a look like he was unwilling, but since the Tai Stellar King had spoken, he couldn't say anything else.
With a sigh, the Huo Family Head asked, "Old Bing, do you remember what happened a few months ago? We sent a few youngsters from our family to take out an upper realm called the Galactic Humanity Alliance?"
The Bing Family Head was confused about why the Huo Family Head had asked this, but he still gave a nod in response.
The Huo Family Head continued, "Wasn't there a report about someone with the same power as the target?"
The Tai Stellar King's eyes turned sharp when he heard this and he leaned in to say, "Tell me more."
The Huo Family Head gave a gulp, but he still told the story of their failure.
