Chapter 429

Names (1)

Were talking about Wait, who is this human? Is this They began to answer the question when the noticed the question came from a human teenager.

Yep, this was the legendary Master, proven by the three girls around him- Tigress, Athen and Taeya whom everyone knew.

Taiya, youve finally made time to come! sneered one of the people at the meeting.

Tigress shook her head. Not really, but I have no choice.

The other person was speechless for a moment, not expecting this answer at all. She literally admitted to not wanting to come.

Ye Lang saw him too, though when his eyes landed on this important person, Ye Langs eyes never left.

What are you looking at?! huffed the important person. He had already disliked Ye Lang before this for distracting his daughter, now the kid is staring at him?!

Im looking at you Ye Lang replied honestly.

Whats there to look at?

This kids gotta stop whatever hes doing.

Ye Lang smiled. Your heads what Im looking at!

Well, he was indeed looking at his tiger head.

The man couldnt help but lift his chin a little higher, looking haughty for a moment though his moment was about to be ruined.

Are you wearing a mask? Ye Lang asked.

Eh?! the important person gasped.

Master Tigress subtly tugged at him. She knew what he was about to ask.

Your tiger mask looks amazing, very realistic! Can you get me one too?

Mask?! This is my head, MY HEAD! he roared Then realised he had lost his composure and immediately rearranged himself.

Breathe Breathe How can I lose my cool over a human kid

Your head? Really? Ye Lang asked.

Yes, absolutely! he was proud too. His head was the source of his pride. Them beastmen were not just magnificent, they were powerful!

You look exactly like an animal from this angle, you dont have any human traits at all! Ye Lang blurted.

Master, please be polite. Hes the chief of the tiger tribe and hes also my father! said Tigress gently, revealing this persons identity and also her own.

The chief? Your father? Tigress, arent you the princess then? Ye Lang asked, stunned. He didnt care about anything else other than Tigress.

As one of the largest tribes of the beastmen, the tiger tribe was as powerful as a large nation. This meant Tigress was from a very powerful background.

I guess, though were different from humans. The chiefs daughter does not have any privileges, we all have to rely on our own strengths, she nodded.

As per her words, the beastmen did not just look at bloodlines, an individuals capabilities were more important!

Of course, being the chiefs daughter made things easier sometimes. It was easier for her to stand out from the crowd and would have more access to opportunities than other people.

Then again, she had the protection of her father if anything happened to her so it wasnt true she didnt have any privileges.

Oh, I see! I have a question. Why do you both look so different? Is he really your father? Ye Lang asked very directly. This was what he thought, something many people wondered too.

There were too many differences between them, from their looks to their animal characteristics. Other than her ears and tail, Tigress did not have any other outer, physical animal characteristics.

Her stature was far different from his too. Her father was tall and muscular, she was short and just adorable.

How could they be related at all?

Master Youve read books about beastmen, you should know huffed Tigress. She didnt scold him despite the idiotic remark he just made.

I have! According to historical records, ancient beastmen didnt just have tiger heads, they could literally be half an animal! However, most of the beastmen resembled humans now, and bear fewer animal features. Most only have the ears and the tail. Your fathers features are very rare! Also, if hes the father, its also very rare for him to produce a child like you. Youre both too different Ye Lang was still very suspicious. For the first time in her life, Tigress wanted to smack him.

Only gently

The chief was silent. There was a flash of an odd expression but he immediately raged, You, boy, who are you to question us? Youve got to answer to me first, weve got unfinished business! Youve got nerve questioning me, son!

Sorry, what? Ye Lang didnt understand. Im sure this is the first time Ive met you, what do you mean unfinished business?

Im talking about my daughter! What drug did you use on my daughter, I cant believe she gave up this opportunity all for you! roared the chief.

?? Ye Lang was very confused, he didnt know what the chief was talking about at all.

At this point, Tigress spoke up. Father, lets not talk about this anymore. Ive never even wanted to go in the first place!

Tigress, what are you talking about? asked Ye Lang.

Kid, havent you figured it out already? This mock war was for us to pick a few people to send to the City of Beast Gods, for cultivation! explained the chief.

City of Beast Gods? The mysterious city that only appears once in a century? asked Ye Lang.

Indeed! This is the pride of the beastmen, a place everyone dreams of visiting. I have trained there myself, that place is What I mean is, this place would be very useful for their life ahead! said the chief.

Ye Lang finally understood what Athena was referring to when she said Tigress was giving up this opportunity. Tigress had given up the opportunity to enter the City of Beast Gods.

Every hundred years, the mysterious city would appear and open their gates to welcome the representatives of the beastmen. Other than high-level officials who participated in prayer rituals, a group of talented young adults would be sent into the city too. After the prayers were complete, they would stay to cultivate their inner strengths and capabilities.
