When the Fox People Clan began to take action, Shenghai Kingdom was also making moves. Possessing the sixth-tier blueprints gave them the confidence to confront any empire, even the entire world.
With this newfound confidence, Shaliya acted decisively in everything she did. Of course, the ans available to her were limited to increasing propaganda and deliberately leaving behind so subtle pitfalls.
For example, those nobles whom Du You had left behind without eliminating were given additional pressure to agitate them. At the sa ti, these nobles were placed in the north, bordered by the Divine Fla Empire. This made the already wealthy nobles, inferior in other aspects, start to feel their ambitions unsatisfied.
A new month brought a fresh reinforcent of troops; the forces that had been depleted last ti were sowhat restored. In just a few months, not only could they fully recover, but they could grow even stronger; such was the power of a territory.
Within about a month, both Du You and the two sisters had fully mastered their skills. Next, the trio entered Holy Fox City to aid Elsa, primarily acting as strategists and boosting Elsa’s confidence.
The three spent most of their ti further enhancing their advanced skills.
At this mont, a fully prepared Elsa issued her commands.
As the Fox People ambassadors headed out in all directions, the matter of the Fox People seeking to establish a kingdom finally ca to light. Almost all the tribes agreed to their request, a return on the promises and benefits that the Fox People had consistently offered.
The Lion People Clan, on the other hand, could not offer benefits to other tribes. Beastn have always believed that the strong possess everything. Without benefits, who would willingly obey the Lion Clan’s commands, especially when their prowess was currently not weak?
In order to win these groups over, Du You even sold many fifth-tier Magical Beasts to them, because without reaching the fifth tier, it was impossible to enhance their overall strength. To give them enough confidence, so mid-to-late fifth-tier Magical Beasts were sold to them cheaply by Du You; of course, Elsa was the front.
As news spread, the Lion People Clan finally couldn’t resist and called a eting.
Although the Lion People were royalty, managing the nation required officials from tribes other than their own. Most were of other tribes. "You must already know about the Fox People."
An Ape Tribe Elder nodded and said, "We are aware; their envoy has already visited our tribe." Hearing this, others nodded in agreent.
A flash of annoyance passed through the king’s eyes; he was the last to know. These damned fellows had the news but didn’t deliver it to him at first instance, and those Fox People also notified him last.
"Then why are you only telling now?" the king asked loudly, his mood sullen.
A Fox People representative calmly responded, "Your Majesty, due to the distance, our Fox People Clan is located on the easternmost side of the Beastman Kingdom, while the Lion People Clan is in the west, so you were the last to be inford."
While it made sense, couldn’t they have sent soone faster on horseback? Clearly, the Fox People didn’t regard him highly. Yet the Lion People found no excuse to counter.
A Wolfman representative shouted, "I object, the Fox People have always been a part of us Beastn; why should they separate? Moreover, the land they want to split from belongs to our Beastman Kingdom. This is unethical."
The Wolfn not only gained no benefits from this transaction but were also extrely unlucky. They deeply regretted it and harbored intense hatred towards the Fox People, opposing everything they proposed, right or wrong, as a matter of principle.
No sooner had the Wolfman representative finished than a Bear People representative spoke up, "Firstly, the land owned by the Fox People has always been theirs through generations and is located on the southwestern border of our kingdom. Moreover, the vast forest they cultivated was originally outside our national boundary."
"That is to say, most of the land belonging to the Fox People Clan is their own; their independence won’t impact us much. Besides, establishing a kingdom doesn’t an we cut off all trade with them; we can still conduct business."
Suddenly, an Ape Tribe Elder spoke, "Actually, the independence of the Fox People also brings benefits. They border the Divine Fla Empire, our perennial concern. If the Fox People beco independent, we no longer have to worry about the Divine Fla Empire; the Fox People can help us contain them. So, this is beneficial for us."
A boarman representative, swinging his hamr, shouted, "I agree, it is beneficial for the Fox People to establish their kingdom!" Was this fool revealing sothing? Those boarn, indeed all brainless idiots.
Didn’t they see the Lion People’s faces turning green?
At that mont, the Beastman King realized that this had probably been pre-arranged. Otherwise, how could such a significant issue be agreed upon so quickly without discussion, even for Beastn?
These fellows were too eager to make their stance known; he absolutely didn’t believe the Fox People were uninvolved.
Seeing the expressions of the Fox People representatives, the Beastman King sensed profound malice. "This matter requires long-term discussion; after all, it concerns the establishnt of a kingdom and cannot be taken lightly."
The Beastman King employed a delaying tactic, intending to indefinitely prolong this issue until an opportunity arose. If necessary, he could resort to special thods, he silently thought.
The unflinching Fox People representatives responded, "Your Majesty, we have already submitted our application to establish a kingdom. Regardless of your thoughts, we will establish our kingdom as it is our developnt strategy. We hope to avoid future conflicts with the Lion People Clan." Was this a threat? The Beastman King’s ugly expression was now undisguised.
As a king unwilling to even pretend, his mood was clearly at its worst.
"Are you seeking death?" the Beastman King slamd the table.
"Your Majesty, they are but ssengers, and we cannot kill ssengers without severely tarnishing our reputation," one representative of another race interjected as the king opened his mouth.
