Chapter 1109: Why Are You Also Shocked?

Outside the Bluewind Tribe"s stone wall, Chief Silvertooth patiently waited with Cindertail, who he requested to accompany him to the Northern Region.

He figured it would be easier for the Northern Region to capitulate if he showed them a glimpse of Hegemon Leonhardt"s authority, and there was no better way of doing that than to use the Golden Suanni Clan.

Nevertheless, Chief Silvertooth didn"t expect the Northern Region to be far colder than he remembered.

The last time he visited the Northern Region, it was cold but not freezing. Since that was the case, the Frost Mountains must be even colder.

Surprisingly, the Northern Region"s tribes could bear living under such brutal cold.

Fortunately, Chief Silvertooth brought Cindertail along. With Cindertail"s golden flames warming up the area, he did not feel as cold.

"How much longer do we have to wait here? Why don"t we just enter and find the Northern Region"s leaders ourselves?" Cindertail said with a disgruntled look.

"The Bluewind Tribe"s sentries have already been alerted of our presence and sent the news to their chief. We shouldn"t have to wait much longer, Paragon Cindertail," Chief Silvertooth replied respectively before requesting, "Please have a little more patience, Paragon Cindertail."

"If we were to barge into the Bluewind Tribe uninvited, it would provoke their hostilities and may impact the process of acquiring the North Region"s allegiance for Hegemon Leonhardt."

"Although I don"t doubt your strength, our goal is not to force their submission but to persuade it. So, we should try to avoid antagonizing them, Paragon Cindertail," Chief Silvertooth explained.

After Cindertail heard that, he no longer showed any more impatience. He didn"t want to cause trouble for his lord.

…

Sometime later, Alliance Leader Hasaar-li and the northern tribe chiefs emerged from the Bluewind Tribe"s walls with their crowd of warriors.

Shock, surprise, and stronger doubt quickly filled their ranks as they confirmed Chief Silvertooth"s presence with the company of a Paragon-level Golden Suanni.

"It"s true… Chief Silvertooth did come with a Golden Suanni… But why? No, how?"

"Right? The Mighty Whitewolf Tribe shouldn"t have any relations.h.i.+p with the Golden Suanni Tribe, let alone THE Golden Suanni Clan, ruler of the Western Jungle… This doesn"t make any sense."

"The bigger question is, what do they want from us?"

"We"ll have the answer to that question once we ask them. Try not to provoke any unnecessary tension if they are reasonable. We wouldn"t want to antagonize that Paragon-level Golden Suanni."

"Understood, Alliance Leader Hasaar-li," the northern tribe chiefs acknowledged solemnly.

In fact, Alliance Leader Hasaar-li did not need to remind them.

A Paragon-level Golden Suanni was even more fearsome than a human Battle G.o.d. Cindertail"s exuberant blood energy and life force were unlike anything they had ever felt.

As such, they easily understood there was only one outcome for the Northern Region if they foolishly angered it – Complete slaughter.

The Golden Suannis truly deserved to be the rulers of the Western Jungle.

After the two sides came within twenty yards of each other, Alliance Leader Hasaar-li politely inquired, "What business brings you to the north, Chief Silvertooth?"

"Chief Hasaar-li, it"s been a while," Chief Silvertooth acknowledged their familiarity before getting to business, "However, I did not come today to reminisce. I come to deliver a message from my lord, Hegemon Leonhardt, to the Northern Region—"

"Hegemon Leonhardt? That"s quite bold of you, Chief Silvertooth. Do you think your lord already controls the Infertile Plains?" Chief Ingi-Bor immediately doubted with an aggressive look, completely throwing Alliance Leader Hasaar-li"s earlier warnings to the wind.

"Chief Ingi-Bor, stand down!" Alliance Leader Hasaar-li bellowed solemnly as the gaze of the Paragon-level Golden Suanni beside Chief Silvertooth turned cold.

Everyone immediately felt like they were treading on thin ice. Even so, Chief Ingi-Bor truly spoke their mind. They all had the same question.

"No need to be so hard on Chief Ingi-Bor, Chief Hasaar-li. His doubts are reasonable since he is ill-informed. I don"t mind explaining my lord"s greatness before relaying his message to you," Chief Silvertooth calmly stated with understanding.

After waiting briefly without a reply from the Northern Region"s side, he continued, "Currently, the Western Region, the Southern Region, the Central Region"s Black Warbear Tribe, the Divine Tortoise Tribe, and my Mighty Whitewolf Tribe have all pledged their allegiance to Hegemon Leonhardt."

"Lord Paragon Cindertail here also serves Hegemon Leonhardt," Chief Silvertooth added.

Although the Northern Region"s people could not confirm the truth in Chief Silvertooth"s words, they were still shocked by his unbelievable claim.

After all, that was practically half of the Infertile Plains!

Even so, it still wasn"t as shocking as having a Paragon-level Golden Suanni for a follower.

That was truly shocking!

How proud were the Golden Suannis? And yet, a Paragon-level one was willing to serve a human for its master? Who would dare cause trouble in front of a Paragon?

"I-Is that true, Lord Paragon Cindertail?" Alliance Leader Hasaar-li sought answers from Cindertail, but he wasn"t sure if he understood human speech.

"Everything is true," Cindertail nodded before saying, "As the nominal Supreme Leader of the Golden Suanni Clan, I give you my word."

"Even the entire Golden Suanni Clan has pledged its allegiance to my lord. What does a mere Infertile Plains amount to?" Cindertail added with disdain.

Plop!

Everyone suddenly fell back onto their bottoms with sheer shock after the revelation. Even Chief Silvertooth was no exception, as he felt weak in the knees.

"Why are you also shocked, Chief Silvertooth? Didn"t you know?" Alliance Leader Hasaar-li asked with surprise.

"Fart! Of course, I knew the Golden Suanni Clan submitted to Hegemon Leonhardt! I just didn"t know Lord Cindertail was its Supreme Leader!" Chief Silvertooth cussed in fright.

He wasn"t sure if he had been showing Cindertail enough respect; he only hoped Cindertail had not been dissatisfied with him in any way.

Gulp!

Alliance Leader Hasaar-li swallowed his built-up saliva nervously before asking, "What message did Hegemon Leonhardt have for the Northern Region, Chief Silvertooth?"

Since even a proud Paragon-level Golden Suanni had given its word, how could they keep doubting Chief Silvertooth"s claim?

The entire Infertile Plains was nothing in front of the Western Jungle"s Golden Suanni Clan.freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Chief Silvertooth smiled wryly at the ill-timed question.

He had intended to shock the Northern Region into submission with his lords" feats. However, he ended up losing his bearing and joining that shocked group.
