Asura Sovereign VII

  Even so, Ellington hastily postured himself in a kneeling posture, not bothering to wipe away the blood flowing from his mouth area, kowtowing to Huwang Xiao, “Mercy, Liege Lord Beast God!” Fear seeped into his voice as he cried for mercy.

  As the next strongest person amongst the beastmen present, Chuck’s heart trembled, yet he dared not move nor speak.

  “What did you say at the moment? Rebellion and usurpation? ” Huwang Xiao questioned coldly.

  “I didn’t know it was Liege Lord Beast God!” Ellington wailed, “I deserve to die, I deserve to pass away!” He persistently knocked his mind against the hard floor, “Please, I beg Liege Lord Beast God to show mercy on me personally once!”

  Huwang Xiao snorted in reply and considered Chuck.

  Chuck’s heart tightened nervously.

  Step by step, Huwang Xiao moved nearer to Chuck, stopping in front of him. The Beast God Scepter in Huwang Xiao’s hand was glowing softly, the eye of the mythical beast head carving were glowing a scarlet red.

  Beads of sweat trickled down Chuck’s forehead.

  “Rise.” Huwang Xiao finally said.

  The tensed atmosphere in the front hall immediately relaxed.

  Both Chuck and Ellington felt like that they had just survived the greatest ordeal of their lives. Only after saying thanks in gratitude did they dare to stand up.

  The three lined up within an orderly manner using one aspect.

  Taking a look at the band of Tiger Tribe guards, a flash of purple shone in Huwang Xiao’s pupils, multiple crimson lights shining from the character ‘soul’ inserted those guards’ consciousnesses through the center of their eyebrows.

  “I simply erased their memory of today’s event, order them to retreat.” Huwang Xiao said to Chuck. For now, he didn’t wish for too many visitors to know his identity, which was why Huwang Xiao erased the Tiger Tribe guards’ memories.

  Chuck, Ellington, and Goodman were stunned.

  Erased memories! This is something that hardly any God Realm masters could do!

  “Yes, Liege Lord Beast God!” Chuck recovered the fastest among the three, acknowledging Huwang Xiao’s order respectfully. He delivered the guards away, strictly stressing that without his expressed order, no one was allowed to come near to leading hall.

  After all the guards remaining the front hall, the three beastmen remaining stood quietly, nobody dared to utter a sound.

  Huwang Xiao pointed at the throne chair at the guts, “Can I sit now?”

  Chuck and Ellington nearly jumped out of their skins at that question.

  “Liege Lord Beast God, sit, please sit, please sit!” Chuck and Ellington began to speak in a loop.

  Finally, Huwang Xiao sat down.

  “Chuck, move the order, all Tiger Tribe’s Saint realm experts are to converge in the Sacred Tiger City.” Huwang Xiao ordered, once he reined in those Tiger Tribe’s Saint world experts, the Tiger Tribe would be under his control.

  “As you ordered, Liege Lord!” Chuck complied, bowing slightly in salute.

  Chuck immediately carried out the task, sending orders to all Tiger Tribe’s Saint realm experts to assemble in Sacred Tiger Manor as soon as possible. Moreover, the last one to arrive would be subjected to the tribe law punishment.

  With just one order from Chuck, all the Tiger Tribe’s Saint world experts made haste, speeding to the Sacred Tiger Manor.

  One of the Tiger Tribe Saint realm experts was just displaying the prowess of his ‘tiger whip’ when he received the order, and his ‘tiger whip’ instantly shrunk and deflated.

  Three times later, all the Tiger Tribe’s Saint realm experts had rushed over. The last someone to arrive was the Tiger Tribe’s High Priest, Leibert.

  When the Tiger Tribe’s Saint realm experts had assembled, Chuck called everyone into the front hall.

  The floor that cracked three days earlier under Huwang Xiao’s Beast God Scepter had already been repaired, no clues could be seen of the damages it suffered just times prior.

  What confused those Saint realm experts was that today, their Tiger Tribe Patriarch did not sit on the throne like he always did, but on a newly added seat down from the throne.

  In silence, everyone exchanged a doubtful look among themselves.

  What is happening here?

  Also, why did their Patriarch had them assemble in such a hurry?!

  An awkward silence filled the environment, though many were doubtful and surprised, no one asked.

  “Patriarch, I've something to report.” An instant later, taking the first chair on the still left, High Priest Leibert stood up and said, breaking the silence. “Some days ago, a human being trespassed into my disciple Bobby’s residence, even breaking both of my disciple’s arms. Who understood that following the matter, Goodman actually sided with the human and wiped out my disciple!”

  “Goodman favored outsiders, joining hands with these to kill my disciple. I implore Patriarch to mete out punishment to Goodman according to the tribe legislation!”

  Leibert’s eyes viewed Goodman, filled up with extreme hatred as he said this.

  Bobby was his proudest disciple and had expectations of advancing in to the Saint realm.

  This news stirred the present Saint realm experts, those who were loggerheads with Goodman had gloating expressions on the faces.

  When everyone thought that Goodman would receive punishment without a doubt, Chuck waved his hand, “I’m alert to this matter, we’ll discuss this matter in the future. Leibert, I have stated in my own order, gathering all of you here, whoever appeared last would receive consequence.”

  This was such as a bolt out of the blue.

  Discuss in the foreseeable future? But everyone could tell from the Patriarch’s build that Goodman wouldn't be punished!

  Goodman was pardoned, but Leibert was to be punished! Just because he was the last one to arrive.

  “Patriarch, you…!” Leibert looked at Chuck in disbelief, even wondering if he previously noticed wrongly just now.

  Chuck continued, “Considering the many merits you have contributed to the Tiger Tribe, after the meeting, you’ll be imprisoned in the poison dungeon for one year.”

  Poison dungeon!

  Everyone drew in a chilly breath.

  The poison dungeon was the Tiger Tribe’s most terrifying prison. Inside it lived various different kinds of poisonous worms and insects. After being bitten by those poisonous bugs, one wouldn’t pass away, however the pain was excruciating.

  Leibert was shocked and angry, “Patriarch, I object!”

  “Object?” A cool tone of voice interjected from outside, then everyone saw a young human walking into the hall.

  The group of Tiger Tribe Saint realm experts was stunned.

  “Insolent! Who allowed you to enter into the Sacred Tiger Manor!” Viewing a human entering the hall, a Tiger Tribe Saint world expert bellowed, but right when he was about to strike, the part of his eyesight noticed the Patriarch, Ellington, and Goodman rise with their ft respectfully and hurried before this young human being. “Liege Lord!”

  Liege Lord?!

  Everyone was dumbstruck.

  Ch.459

  Huwang Xiao strolled to the Tiger Tribe throne and sat down.

  At that moment, the Tiger Tribe Saint realm experts realized that today, their Patriarch’s throne seat was reserved for this human.

  After he sat down, Huwang Xiao scanned the Tiger Tribe experts.

  Without Huwang Xiao’s expressed permission, Chuck dared not sit, and seeing their Patriarch position, the Tiger Tribe Saint realm experts dared not sit either.

  Finally, Huwang Xiao’ gaze fell on the Tiger Tribe High Priest, Leibert, saying, “I’m the main one who killed your disciple.”

  The sudden admittance was a shock to everyone.

  Leibert viewed Chuck and then at Goodman. Then he sneered facing Chuck, “So, it’s such as this; Goodman aided an individual outsider to eliminate my disciple, however, not only you didn't pu
nish him, you even tried to imprison me instead! So you and Goodman have surrendered to a human!”

  Leibert turned towards the assembled Tiger Tribe Saint world experts, “Everyone, you all have seen it with your own eyes, Chuck betrayed our Tiger Tribe, surrendering under a human being, he is no longer qualified to be our Tiger Tribe’s Patriarch! I suggest the removal of Chuck from his Patriarch position, and the imprisonment of Chuck, Goodman, and Ellington the criminal offense of treason!”

  According to the Tiger Tribe’s regulation, if more than sixty percent of tribe experts agreed, they could remove the Patriarch from his position.

  As the Tiger Tribe’s High Priest, Leibert had a significant amount of influence within the tribe, only second to Chuck. He had many supporters amongst the tribe’s experts which were also the primary reason he dared to as such currently.

  As expected, barely an instant after Leibert spoke, a Tiger Tribe Saint realm expert, Parson, stepped forward, “That’s right! Chuck, as our Tiger Tribe Patriarch, actually humbled himself to an individual, this is a sin of betrayal to our Tiger Tribe, deserving death! He’s not qualified to be our Tiger Tribe’s Patriarch, I would recommend that Chuck be removed and also have Leibert lead our tribe as the Patriarch from now on!”

  “I second that, power wise Leibert is as strong as Chuck. In recent years, Leibert has annihilated the Devil Scorpion Tribe and experienced the Sky Ant Tribe surrender under our Tiger Tribe, all these are meritorious deeds for our Tiger Tribe. In my opinion, only Leibert is certified to be our Patriarch!” Another Saint world expert Dunham mentioned.

  All in all, there were twelve people agreeing.

  A feeling of proud complacency swirled in Leibert’s heart, throwing a provocative look toward Chuck.

  He previously twelve people’s votes, thirteen including himself. If he had sixteen people on his side, that would surpass the required sixty percent, he merely needed three more votes.

  The remaining Saint realm experts exchanged looks among themselves.

  Actually, those Tiger Tribe Saint realm experts have been Chuck’s avid supporters, however, now that Chuck allied himself under a human, it greatly disappointed them. Not to mention the unpleasant feeling in their hearts.

  For to them, a human’s status was at the lowest rung, yet their Patriarch actually served under a human being now!

  “Patriarch, you, really surrendered to the individual? ” A Saint realm expert named Bass that has always stood by Chuck questioned.

  “Correct.” Chuck calmly answered.

  Bass was extremely disappointed hearing the answer.

  “Chuck, then I am sorry. I support Leibert as our Tiger Tribe’s Patriarch!” Bass stated, his reference to Chuck has already transformed.

  Inwardly, Leibert was somersaulting with joy as he glanced at Chuck, now, he only needed two more folks to support him, then he would the Tiger Tribe’s new Patriarch.

  “I also support Leibert!” Another Saint world expert declared.

  Only one more!

  The smile on Leibert’s face has begun to bloom yet Chuck remained unperturbed by the problem and the smile on Leibert’s face.

  “I’ll also support Leibert! ” Another Tiger Tribe Saint realm expert declared.

  The smile on Leibert bloomed, turning out to be a hearty giggle, “I thank everyone! Please rest assured, after taking the Patriarch position, I will strive to make our Tiger Tribe the beastmen’s first tribe! ” He proclaimed with beaming confidence.

  He then turned to Chuck with a cool snicker, “I've sixteen people supporting me, meaning that I am the new Patriarch! Chuck, you actually submitted to an individual that colluded with Goodman to kill my disciple, your abuse shall be imprisonment in the Poison Dungeon for just one hundred years!”

  A hundred years!

  Everyone had an unnatural expression on their faces.

  Twelve months inside the Poison Dungeon was already a living nightmare, set alongside the excruciating torture to be imprisoned there for 100 years, death was a better option by far. Leibert was retaliating against Chuck for attempting to imprison him in the Poison Dungeon for a 12 months.

  Huwang Xiao watched the whole farce calmly without interjecting a word the whole time.

  After stating Chuck, Goodman, and Ellington’s punishment, Leibert’s sharp gaze was fixed on Huwang Xiao. “Punk, how dare you destroy my disciple! On top of that, a lowly human being is so brazen as to take a seat on our Tiger Tribe’s throne! But, don’t be concerned, I received’t let you perish so easily, I'll throw you in to the Poison Dungeon, for all eternity till your day you wish for loss of life!”

  “Guards, catch this lowly human for me!”

  “Yes, Patriarch!” Immediately, Parson and Dunham who have been standing beside Leibert recognized loudly and leaped forward, wanting to capture Huwang Xiao. However, just like the two of them acted, three silhouettes shifted to block before them.

  This stunned everyone.

  “Chuck, what exactly are you 3 trying to do?!” Leibert glared angrily, “At this stage, you still refuse to yield?!”

  The three who blocked Parson and Dunham were none other than Chuck, Goodman, and Ellington.

  Chuck looked coldly at Leibert, “Leibert, you will regret this in a little while!”

  Leibert laughed in anger, “Regret? You say I will regret? Chuck, if the three of you insist to go against me, then don’t blame me easily order for your immediate execution as traitors!”

  A murderous aura flowed from Leibert’s body.

  Everyone could clearly tell that if Chuck, Goodman, and Ellington continued to hinder him, Leibert would not hesitate to give out the ‘execution the spot’ order.

  “The three of you retreat.” Instantly, Huwang Xiao who has been keeping silence the entire time spoke.

  The three complied and retreated to the side.

  This drew everyone’s attention Huwang Xiao.

  Leibert sneered viewing this, he really wanted to see what this lowly human being would do next; kneel down in front of him and beg for mercy? Or make an effort to escape?

  But in the next instant, a light flashed in the human’s hands and a cane-like scepter appeared in his palm. This scepter actually made him feel a sliver of fear deep in his spirit.

  This is…?!

  Huwang Xiao took out the Beast God Scepter and imbued it with fight qi. Exactly like three days ago, he stabbed the scepter into the floor, releasing a powerful energy shockwave everywhere. Countless images of historic mythical beasts flew out, the complete Beast God Scepter was glimmering in a red glow.

  Dread filled Leibert, Parson, Dunham, and all of those other Saint world experts.

  “Beast, Beast God Scepter!”

  A voice exclaimed, and in a moment, those Saint realm experts were on their knees.

  The Beast God Scepter!

  Liebert thought something exploded in his mind, barely able to think right.

  This human actually possessed their beastmen’s holy sacrament, then, that means-Beast God! Their beastmen tribes’ Beast God!

  Leibert’s face was drained of all color, trembling.

  By this point, all the Tiger Tribe Saint realm experts finally understood why Chuck, Ellington, and Goodman submitted to this human. Why Goodman would eliminate Leibert’s disciple, why Chuck punished Leibert instead!

  It wasn’t because those three were out of their thoughts.

  Ch.460

  All the Tiger Tribe Saint realm experts that supported Leiber earlier turned paler by the second, large beads of sweat flowed down their foreheads, especially the two who paid attention to Leibert’s instruction to fully capture Huwang Xiao, Parson, and Dunham.

  Irreversible regret hit them too late as they recalled what Chuck thought to Leibert just occasions ago: You will regret this!

  Huwang Xiao continued to channel battle qi in to the Beast God Scepter, pressing the energy of the scepter to the fullest. The coercive pressure felt by the Tiger Tribe Saint realm expert
s increased greatly, as though an insurmountable hill crushed on the bodies.

  The pressure continued, and right when it felt like they couldn’t bear even a second more, Huwang Xiao finally stopped infusing the Beast God Scepter along with his battle qi. The immense pressure exuded by the scepter instantly vanished from leading hall.

  All of the Saint world experts heaved and panted breathlessly, an in . from collapsing.

  Huwang Xiao slowly approached Leibert.

  Leibert’s face was pale green, drained of blood. There is only unspeakable dread imprisoning his body.

  Huwang Xiao raised the Beast God Scepter and stabbed the other end into Leibert’s upper body, exactly as Ellington’s experience three times prior. Leibert flew out without any level of resistance after he was struck on the chest by the scepter.

  Witnessing this scene, others shivered from the core.

  “Beast, Liege Lord Beast God, have mercy!” Leibert pleaded many times over.

  Huwang Xiao approached him again and Leibert was struck again with the scepter on the upper body.

  A loud blast resounded and hearts clenched with apprehension while Leibert’s body was sent traveling again.

  Huwang Xiao approached, meting another strike. This time around, Leibert couldn’t get right up anymore.

  The Beast God Scepter held a portion of the previous Beast God’s power, a light stroke on the beastman’s body was enough to inflict a grave injury on them, not to mention those three strikes from Huwang Xiao were doled out with a heavy hand.

  As the Tiger Tribe’s High Priest, his strength rivaled Chuck as the next strongest person within the ranks of Tiger Tribe, but despite that, before Huwang Xiao, he failed to muster a good shred of resistance.

  It short, to Huwang Xiao, Leibert was no different than a weak Xiantian realm warrior.

  The gazes fond of Huwang Xiao from around the hall were anything but simple fear.

  Huwang Xiao’s manifestation didn’t change much, “Leibert’s High Priest position will be removed, then he will be imprisoned in the Poison Dungeon for three years! After 3 years, further decisions will be made if he repents!”
