Chapter 1216  Wolf Taming – Part 2

The Chief of the Hornak Tribe, Tizan, was the strongest Lycanthrope in the Andure Vale. The reason was simple, it was because the Lycanthrope awakened his bloodline. Tizan managed to steal the precious vial of bloodline from the human force. That was the reason why the Hornak Tribe became the strongest tribe in the Andure Vale.

Tang Shaoyang accompanied by the other six Chief Tribes from the other six Lycanthrope Tribes would meet Tizan, The Chief of Hornak Tribe. The other Lycanthrope Tribes numbered between four hundred to seven hundred members, but the Hornak Tribe’s number reached three thousand. Tizan had united four Lycanthrope Tribes, reducing the tribes into seven tribes to this day.

It was Tizan’s dream to unite all the Lycanthrope Tribes under his banner. If not for the war against the Werewolf, Tizan might have achieved that a long time ago. Tang Shaoyang learned a little bit about the history of the Lycanthrope in the Andure Vale.

“Are we sure you don’t need our people, Your Majesty?” Karzick had asked the same question seven times, and he got the same answer all the time.

The news that Tang Shaoyang had united the six tribes had reached the Hornak Tribe for sure. Tizan would not let that happen and would do everything to prevent that from happening. Then Tang Shaoyang decided to meet with Tizan in the Hornak’s territory with just nine of them. That was a questionable decision. Tizan would do everything to kill Tang Shaoyang and also all of them. That was the shortest way to unite the seven tribes.

“You are quite timid for a Lycanthrope, Karzick. You have awakened a bloodline, six of you. It should be more than enough for you six to kill one Tizan, no?” Tang Shaoyang smiled, shaking his head.

“You forget about his two thousand army, Your Majesty. Two thousand Lycanthropes will do everything to stop us from killing Tizan. This is reckless. You should have brought our armies to fight them,” Karzick tried to persuade Tang Shaoyang.

“Just follow me. You will be fine. I will not let you die under my watch,” Tang Shaoyang halted his steps, “It seems we have arrived at Hornak’s village.”

“There’s still a long way to reach the Hornak Tribe….” Karzick stopped midway as he understood why The Emperor misunderstood this was Hornak’s territory.

Tizan and his army were right ahead of them, forming a long line ahead of them. It seemed the Hornak Tribe had been watching their movement and intercepted them in this open field.

Karzick furrowed his brow, scanning the surroundings. The former chief tribe realized they had been surrounded. He focused on persuading His Majesty, lowering his guard, not noticing they were followed, “We have been followed. How can I let this happen?”

“We are aware of being followed, and His Majesty is also aware. It’s just you who did not notice we are being followed,” Denzo, another former chief tribe who decided to follow Tang Shaoyang, replied to Karzick.

“This stupid servant deserves to be punished, Your Majesty,” Karzick fell on his knees, putting his face on the ground. It was a bit awkward to see a three-meter Lycanthrope kneeling to Tang Shaoyang.

“You are still good at kissing ass, Karzick,” Tizan spoke from the other side, but Karzick totally ignored the former, still kneeling.

Tang Shaoyang nudged the Lycanthrope with his feet, telling him to get up, “Stop it, Karzick. Now do your magic just like what you did.”

Karzick slowly got up, observing the other five former chief tribes. He wanted them to tell His Majesty that it was impossible to convince Tizan to surrender. However, the five former chief tribes shrugged, not helping him at all.

“The best way to convince Tizan is to beat him up, Your Majesty,” Karzick let out a defeated sigh, but then he made his way forward after receiving a glare from Lu An. A few hours prior, he had experienced how scary the young man was. He had to make sure that he would never get on Lu An’s bad side.

“Tizan! You have two choices! Submit or die!” Totally different than what he did to the other five tribes. Karzick did not try to convince Tizan with flowery words, but his words direct invoked laughter from Hornak Tribe’s army. It was like a joke to them that Karzick said that to the mighty Tizan.

“If you swear to be loyal to His Majesty and serve the Tang Empire, His Majesty will grant you freedom. The freedom you always dream of, getting out of this cursed tower! Make your choice, Tizan!”

Tizan’s eyes shook when he heard that. He quickly realized that the man Karzick served was a player from outside the tower. It could be seen how tempting the offer was, shaking Tizan’s determination.

“Why should I submit? Are you an idiot? I can also get out of this tower by capturing that human alive, and I will do it right now!” Tizan raised his Khukuri, signaling his army to surround Karzick and the players.

An army of Lycanthrope emerged from behind the group, surrounding them from all sides. Tizan chose the open field because of how confident he was. He just needed to make sure the player could not escape from the encirclement.

Karzick turned around to meet with Tang Shaoyang with an “I have told you already, Your Majesty” face. He knew Tizan would not surrender unless His Majesty defeated him first.

“I will not accept surrender. If he does not submit now, then death awaits him and his army. Are you sure you are not going to put in more effort to convince him, Karzick?” Tang Shaoyang had a solemn expression.

Karzick was the only one who had witnessed how Tang Shaoyang fought. He was confident that His Majesty would win against Tizan. However, the scenario in his mind was that His Majesty would beat Tizan into submission, not killing Tizan. He was surprised to hear that directly from Tang Shaoyang’s mouth.

“I… This… Mnn…” Karzick was lost for words. He wanted Tizan to join him in the new home, but he had no way to convince Tizan without defeating Tizan in a fight. Even though he had a bad history with Tizan. Tizan was still one of them, and the icon of the Andure Vale.

“Let me try once more, Your Majesty,” Karzick finally made up his mind. He wanted to bring Tizan along with him to gain freedom. More than that, he wanted Tizan to serve The Emperor because he was convinced Tizan would be the Lycanthrope’s representative in the Tang Empire. The Lycanthrope needed Tizan in their future home.

Karzick turned around and walked further closer to Tizan, “I have a proposal for you Tizan. Let’s fight! The loser will grant the winner’s wish, whatever it is. You can have my life or my tribe if you win, but if I win, you and your tribe have to follow His Majesty! You have to take an oath to serve the Tang Empire! Do you dare, Tizan!?”

Tizan let out a hefty laugh, his eyes moved between Karzick and Tang Shaoyang. There must be a reason why Karzick was so confident, and Tizan thought it might be related to the player, “I see. You finally get a bloodline, huh? That’s why you are so confident to fight me.” 𝒏𝑶𝒱𝐄𝓵𝗇𝐄xt.𝔠𝑜𝓂

“I am not that stupid. Why would I throw my advantage by fighting you? I have my army while you don’t. I am not going to throw away my chance to get out of this damned tower, whether as a warrior or coward,” Tizan grinned, pointing his Khukuri toward Tang Shaoyang.

“Get ready!” He yelled, and all the Lycanthrope drew out their weapons.
