Chapter 599 - Kalliyan

"That's a problem…" After hearing it from Goldien, Zaneos realized they might stay with this force for the time being. He looked at the seven Troll Warlords. He was not sure if seven of them were enough to face a Myth Rank. Another problem was the Fiery Rook was an aerial combat-type beast.

The seven Troll Warlords might defeat a Myth Rank, but he was not sure if it was an aerial beast. "I will stay then. Those Fiery Rooks are quite fun to fight against." A gigantic shadow hovered over them. Aerelion had finished gathering the bodies and joined the group.

Everyone looked up. Goldien looked at the creature who defeated the Fiery Rook Tribe's force alone. "A real dragon?" he muttered in shock. They looked alike, and this was the first time for Goldien to meet a wyvern… He thought the dark creature was a dragon.

"I am not a dragon, I am a wyvern." Aerelion corrected the Grand Chief of the Gator Tribe before he looked toward Zaneos and Bronson. "You two can join the Lord's side. I will stay with them until I take care of the Fiery Rook Tribe."

That was the optimal plan for them since Tang Shaoyang only had three Grade SS Spirits. Their power was needed there to fight the Dark Tribe and the Guardian Beasts. Zaneos and Bronson nodded their heads in response. "Then please protect them, Aerelion." Those were Zaneos' last words before he and Bronson disappeared. They returned to the Spiritual Space.

On the other side of Gigante Forest, Tang Shaoyang had arrived at the supposed to be Kirin's lair. He was not in the lair, or else Kirin would come for him if he came too near. He was resting at the biggest and tallest tree around the area, away from the Kirin's lair, but he could monitor the surroundings from his spot.

"From what Aki told me, the Dark Tribe and The Green Sky Serpent will attack Kirin tomorrow, but it might be the time they depart as well. They should arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Tang Shaoyang muttered in a low voice.

"Now, I have nothing to do, but to wait for them…" Tang Shaoyang laid down on the thick branch that was even bigger than his body and closed his eyes. Even though he had his eyes closed, [Spirit Eyes] kept monitoring the surroundings.

—We have returned, My Lord.

All of a sudden, Tang Shaoyang heard Bronson's voice in his head. He was surprised they returned early. "What about the Gator Tribe? Have you finished them off?"

—The Gator Tribe surrendered after I killed the four Elders. Because you are not there, I have them vowed to Lady Ashley.

Zaneos reported the details of the battle against the Gator Tribe, including the Gator Tribe colluded with the Fiery Rook Tribe.

Tang Shaoyang had gotten used to Zaneos that had become too formal with him. He repeatedly told the demon to drop the formality, but the demon was stubborn. At this point, he could not force the demon to speak normally with him again.

"I see…" Aerelion stayed by Ashley's side, and he was relieved inside. With Aerelion with them, he did not need to worry about their safety until they entered the Beast Coven's territory. "You should tell me before you return to the Spiritual Space. The Dark Tribe will arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. You two can stay longer on Ashley's side."

—That's actually my fault. I was being impatient to fight the Dark Tribe, so I urged Zaneos to return quickly. I apologize, My Lord.

Bronson was the first one to respond to that. The undead spirit apologized as if he was making a big mistake. "You don't have to be sorry about that. I am not blaming you or something." Tang Shaoyang shook his head. "What about your new power, Zaneos? Have you tested it?"

—I have tried a few basic moves, but the Gator Tribe is not strong enough for me to go all out. It was a disappointment.

Just like that, Tang Shaoyang spent his time talking with the spirits. When the night came, Tang Shaoyang detected movement from the forest. Through the [Spirit Eyes], he detected a big force was coming toward his direction. He immediately woke up and hid from the incoming force.

The Dark Vultures filled the sky, and mixed beastmen on the ground marched together. Tang Shaoyang controlled his aura, making sure no one could find him while observing the force with [Spirit Eyes].

Tang Shaoyang was surprised that the Dark Force only brought a few hundred of their force. But he could understand what the Chief of the Dark Tribe tried to do. Rather than bringing thousands of forces, he only brought the elite amongst the elite to fight Kirin. He had seen the main force, but he did not see the Green Sky Serpent and Igor the Infernal Sabre, the Chief of the Dark Tribe.

—They are here!

Bronson's excited voice rang in his head. The undead spirit anticipated the fight since the Dark Tribe was the strongest force they had ever fought so far. "We are not going to initiate the attack. We will use Kirin to tire them out before we join the fray." He told his spirits his original plan. Just in case they forgot about that.

At this moment, something big covered the moon in the sky. Tang Shaoyang looked up and found a creature blocking the moon. A gigantic green-scaled creature flew in the sky, and it reached forty meters long with eight wings. If not for Aki telling him that this Guardian Beast was a Serpent, he might think it was a dragon.

'That thing must be the Green Sky Serpent, the Legend Rank beast.'

He was slightly surprised, but not that much, as his True Dragon's form was still bigger than this Green Sky Serpent. 'It seems they will attack Kirin tomorrow, or maybe tonight.'

'Let's watch everything from the sideline.' He subconsciously smiled as the approaching armor arrived at the edge of the cliff. The army had to cross over to reach Kirin's lair, but since they were just a few hundreds, the Green Sky Serpent should be able to bring them on its back.

'Ata, boys. We found our next target.' Tang Shaoyang discovered that it might be Igor, the Chief of the Dark Tribe. It had the head of a tiger with two red long tusks protruded upward from its mouth. It had one taller horn and smaller horns, forming a circle on its head. The horns looked like a crown.

The black fur covered its body with a long tail trailing its footsteps. Igor was around four meters tall and had seven black spears floating on its back. Its black eyes blended with the darkness of night as its sharp gaze fell on the Kirin's lair.

'Huhuhuhu… The waiting game is over, it's watching time.' Tang Shaoyang looked in the same direction as well. He got to see one of his enemies. Now he was curious what Kirin looked like. 'Time will tell—'

"Come out, cowardly Kirin! Your time has come!" A loud yet sharp roar entered his ears.

Tang Shaoyang was surprised and looked up. It was the Green Sky Serpent's voice. From the look of it, they would start it tonight. Much better than he thought. After that roar, the atmosphere fell into a deep silence again.

However, after five minutes, Kirin did not respond to the Green Sky Serpent's call. Just as he thought Kirin would not appear, a female voice rang. "What are you doing in my domain, Rotten Serpent? Did you forget our agreement? Or do you want to die?"

The voice came from the rock click across from them. Tang Shaoyang did not see the figure, but he was sure that the voice belonged to Kirin.

"Agreement? The agreement will cease to exist from today onward! Gigante Forest will only have one Guardian Beast, that's me!" The Green Sky Serpent replied arrogantly.

Tang Shaoyang could feel the overwhelming confidence in the Green Sky Serpent's voice. It seemed the serpent had a way to deal with Kirin if it was that confident. His gaze remained on the rock cliff, waiting for Kirin's arrival.

"Do you think you can win against me even with the help of these weaklings?" The same voice replied. It seemed Kirin did not have the intention to show up.

"Bahahahaha…" The Green Sky Serpent let out monstrous laughter. "Don't act tough, Kalliyan. Do you think I don't know that you are just giving birth? I have been waiting for this moment for years. I am waiting for you to give birth to the kid in your stomach. Because I know you will be weakened once you give birth!"

Tang Shaoyang was surprised to hear that. In the end, the Green Sky Serpent knew Kirin was in its weakest moment. The fact Kirin did not reply to that confirmed what Green Sky Serpent said was the truth. 'No wonder the Dark Tribe is willing to work together with the Green Sky Serpent.'

"I have been waiting for years, when will you give birth to the kid in your belly." The Green Sky Serpent's excited voice rang. "Ah, you have been waiting since the great war against the demon. I have had my eyes on you since that time, but you keep delaying giving birth until now. You thought that no one would notice, but I have my eyes on you, Kalliyan!"

'What? Can Kirin do that?' Tang Shaoyang was quite surprised with the back story. 'But wait, Green Sky Serpent is not one of the Guardian Beasts at that time, or else, Jet should know this cunning serpent's existence.'
