Chapter 1215  Wolf Taming - Part 1

Tang Shaoyang was in his stance at the incoming ten Lycanthrope. The leader of the Lycanthrope, Karzick, did not stop the ten Lycanthrope either. It was easy to understand Karzick's decision. The leader of this village wanted the ten of his kind to test out the water, testing him. The Ancient Rank Lycanthrope failed to give Karzick that valuable information, so Karzick hoped ten of them would reveal more of Tang Shaoyang's power.

'Since he wants to know how strong I am, maybe I will show him a little bit,' Tang Shaoyang smiled as his eyes met Karzick's eyes, then he used The Third Heaven Gate, The Heaven Shattering Palm. It was a different version of Heaven Shattering Palm. The dark night was lightened by the sudden glow of a big palm in the sky. Everyone looked up in the sky, including Rosalie and Lu An. Even the ten Lycanthrope paused at the sight of the golden palm.

Boom!

The golden palm descended toward the ten Lycanthrope, flattening the ten wolf creatures flat to the ground, leaving mud blood behind. That was another way of using Heaven Shattering Palm, and there was a lot of variation to the technique.

"What was that?" Rosalie blurted out, asking what the golden palm was about. As a spirit, she knew a lot of Tang Shaoyang's skills and abilities. She did not know or even had seen Tang Shaoyang use that skill before. This was her first time seeing the skill.

Lu An kept his silence, but he looked toward Tang Shaoyang. He too wanted to know what that was. Even though he did not know the skill, he had an inkling about that ability.

Tang Shaoyang just winked his left eye at her, "That's a trade secret. Something I learned from my last trial. We can't speak about it in front of these Lycanthropes." He then turned toward Karzick who happened to be looking at him as well, "So, what about it? Have you seen it enough? It's time to give your answer because I don't have that much time to waste with you. This is a mercy from me."

Karzick looked at the ground where the golden palm left its mark behind, killing the ten Lycanthropes in one hit. He could not tell how strong the enemy was if his people were killed in one strike like that. He was unsure if the numbers would be enough to take the man down. Even if he managed to take this man down, it would be at a great cost. They would lose most of them, and it was just time until the Werewolf wiped them up, ending the war that had been going on for over a century.

"What does it mean to submit?" Karzick finally opened his mouth. The choice for survival was to submit to this man. The chance with the highest survival was to submit, and he was not going to let his tribe down under his lead. It was a hard decision, but that was the best for his tribe. He could hear his people protesting against him as he asked the man, but he ignored them. He believed this was the best for the tribe.

"It means you and your people will serve me as The Emperor. You and your tribe will live under The Empire's protection and law. You and your tribe will protect The Empire from her enemy… Outside this damned tower!" The last part had more meaning to Karzick than anything else. Right after Tang Shaoyang said outside the tower, his eyes widened in shock, realizing the man's identity, "Make your choice right now!"

Karzick walked closer to Tang Shaoyang, knelt on his knee, a meter away from Tang Shaoyang, and said, "I will serve you, Your Majesty."

Tang Shaoyang motioned for him to get up, "Good choice, but what about your tribe." Of course, he noticed Karzick said "I will serve you", representing himself instead of the whole tribe.

"I can't make the decision for them. The decision is theirs, Your Majesty. I am sure you don't need people who will betray you at any chance, do you?" Karzick showed a genuine smile, "However, I will help you to convince them."

It did not take Karzick that much time to convince his people. There was a reason why he was the Chief Tribe. In just two minutes, he had the whole tribe kneeling before Tang Shaoyang, swearing their loyalty to the Tang Empire.

There was more reason than just his reluctance from killing the Lycanthrope's children. It was to increase his force for the future war. These Lycanthropes were strong enough based on their rank, and he just needed them to take Talent and Class from the Smart Base to make them a worthy army for the empire.

He had a conversation with Karzick while the other Lycanthropes made preparations to leave their home for the new home. Tang Shaoyang was asking the Lycanthrope if he had class and talent, and the answer was a surprise.

"We don't have class and talent, or even bloodline. We have tried many times, but we can't get any of them even though humans can get the class. The System limits us, Lycanthrope, so we can't rule this world anymore. We don't even go through a trial when we reach Epic Rank and above ranks. There's no trial, no reward for us, but you are the key, Your Majesty. If you are willing to bring us out of this tower, the System will return everything to us. That's why my people are willing to serve you and serve the empire. You have given them back what they have lost a long time ago, freedom."

Karzick was so passionate when he told that to Tang Shaoyang. He looked like someone who was ready to die for Tang Shaoyang even though they just met. It was not something Tang Shaoyang expected from Lycanthrope, at all.

"That's good to know. Do you think it will work with the other tribes too?" Tang Shaoyang asked.

"It will work but for one tribe, Hornak! The Hornak Tribe is the strongest Lycanthrope Tribe in Andure Vale. The Chief of the main force that drives the Werewolf from invading Andure Vale."

Hornak Tribe, the self-proclaimed King of Lycanthrope. No one bothers to deny his claim though because the Hornak Tribe is the 

main force that drives the Werewolf from invading Andure Vale."
