Chapter 1477: Chapter 1475: Changing the Plan
"What are you doing here!" The Patriarch of the Ye Familyâs face was filled with extreme anger upon seeing the Lizardman Chief: "Donât you know that unless itâs an extremely important matter, we cannot meet?"
The Lizardman Chief looked a bit submissive and said, "Master of the Ye Family, I certainly know, but I have a very important situation that I must report to you!"
The Master of the Ye Family took a few deep breaths and said somewhat impatiently, "What is it?"
The Lizardman Chief said in a deep voice, "Our plan has changed, Lion Mad... does not intend to continue the attack on Bear Fortress!"
"What? How is that possible!" The Master of the Ye Family said in a deep voice, "Do they not want to rescue the Dragon Lady? My plan canât be wrong!"
The Lizardman Chief gave a bitter smile and then relayed Lion Madâs words from today to the Master of the Ye Family: "Master of the Ye Family, I think Lion Mad believes that attacking Bear Fortress would greatly weaken the Beastmanâs strength, thatâs why they..."
The Master of the Ye Family frowned: "Is that really so? I keep feeling like things arenât that simple!"
"That shouldnât be mistaken!" The Lizardman Chief said, "In the previous siege battle, the Lion Tribe even deployed the Shaking Mountain Dragon, but still couldnât conquer Bear Fortress."
"But are they really not afraid of the Dragon Clanâs reproach?" The Master of the Ye Family said, somewhat puzzled.
The Lizardman Chief sighed and said, "Master of the Ye Family, I think Lion Madâs words have some truth. If the Beastmen suffer a huge loss of power from attacking Bear Fortress, I think not only Lion Mad, but other Beastman Tribe leaders wouldnât agree either!"
The Master of the Ye Family said in a deep voice, "You mean, our appetite is too big, and those Beastmen feel the Xiong Family is too tough to chew?"
"Thatâs what it means!" The Lizardman Chief bitterly smiled, "I also suggest speeding up the attack, but my status in the Beastman Tribe isnât high, and Lion Mad didnât adopt my opinion!"
"That indeed is a problem!" The Master of the Ye Family frowned. He felt his plan was getting out of control and it was time to make some adjustments.
The Lizardman Chief said anxiously, "Master of the Ye Family, what do we do now, Iâm worried..."
The Master of the Ye Family said irritably, "Worried about what, worried that once things break out, you Lizardmen will be ostracized by the Beastmen? Let me tell you, since you chose to cooperate with our Ye Family, our Ye Family absolutely wonât mistreat you. You just need to cooperate with our Ye Familyâs actions!"
"As for the Beastman Tribe... they are just making a futile struggle; you donât really think they will achieve anything significant, do you?" The Master of the Ye Family said with a cold smile, "I should tell you, the Imperial Capital has already decided to launch a major cleanup operation against the Abyss Realm, and the Beastmen will sooner or later become the sacrifice of this action."
The Lizardman Chief forced a smile and said, "Of course, we Lizardmen believe in you, Master of the Ye Family, thatâs why we turned away from darkness to the light! But what should we do now?"
The Master of the Ye Family pondered for a moment and said, "Since the Beastmen donât want to attack, then we should fuel the fire and push them a bit!"
"Do you have any ideas, Master of the Ye Family?" The Lizardman Chief asked.
The Master of the Ye Family smiled slightly and did not answer.
"The Lizardman Chief definitely has issues!" In the Beastmen army, Lion Mad found Ling Feng and said in a deep voice, "Master Ling Feng, according to the reports from our Lionmen sentries, the Lizardman Chief did not return directly to the tribe but turned towards the Human Clan, he is indeed a traitor to the Beastmen!"
Ling Feng nodded slightly, "The Lizardman Chief colluded with the Human Clan? Just as I expected, those who attacked the Dragon Lady earlier probably used the Lizardman Tribe to infiltrate to the Cloud Stone Beach!"
"Iâll send someone to arrest the Lizardman Chief right now!" Lion Mad said angrily, "As a Beastman, to betray the Beastmen is a disgrace to the Beastmen!"
"Whatâs the rush!" Ling Feng rolled his eyes and said, "The Lizardman Chief is just a pawn of the mastermind behind the scenes, we still hope to use this pawn to dig out more. If you stir up trouble eventually alarming them, what about the clues?"
"Then what should we..." Lion Mad asked somewhat confused.
Ling Feng pondered for a moment and said, "Letâs pretend we donât know anything for now, and go investigate which faction in the Human Clan the Lizardman Chief approached, we need to cast a long line to catch a big fish!"
"Itâs already been investigated!" Lion Mad chuckled, "Itâs supposed to be the Ye Family of the Human Clan!"
Ling Feng raised an eyebrow, "Is it the Ye Family? That artifact forging family, the Ye Family?"
"Thatâs right!" Lion Mad said.
Ling Feng lightly tapped his fingers on the table. Xiong Yan had found fragments of Ye Family forged armor at the scene, and the Lizardman Chief secretly went to the Ye Family, could it be that the mastermind behind all this is truly the Ye Family?
"If itâs the Ye Family, why are they doing this?" Ling Feng murmured to himself.
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Ling Fengâs mind, and he seemed to understand, the Blood Cloud Stone Mine! If thereâs anything the Xiong Family has that the Ye Family covets, it would definitely be the Blood Cloud Stone Mine!
Blood Cloud Stone is a top-grade artifact refining material; if the Ye Family, as a forging family, knows that the Xiong Family possesses a Blood Cloud Stone Mine, thereâs no way they would stand idly by!
Currently, the only doubt in Ling Fengâs mind is, what method did they use to make the Beastmen believe they were rescuing the Dragon Lady? Or is this Dragon Ladyâs identity real or fake?
"Looks like I need to investigate the Ye Family!" Ling Feng murmured to himself.
The next day, the Lizardman Chief returned to the Beastmen army. Despite the promise from the Master of the Ye Family, the Lizardman Chief still felt somewhat uneasy.
"Nothing happened yesterday, right?" The Lizardman Chief asked.
"Big brother, everything went smoothly, nothing unusual!" The Lizardman Chiefâs second brother said, "But this morning, Lion Mad sent someone looking for you."
The Lizardman Chiefâs face tightened: "Looking for me? Why?"
The second brother scratched his head and said, "I donât know, they said itâs about the attack on Bear Fortress, many tribe leaders have been notified, and a combat meeting will be held at three this afternoon!"
The Lizardman Chief breathed a sigh of relief. He thought his whereabouts had been exposed, but it seemed to be just a regular combat meeting.
"Itâs almost time, Iâll head over now!" The Lizardman Chief said.
Upon arriving at the combat meeting room, the Lizardman Chief found that many tribe leaders had already arrived. They were all puzzled; Lion Mad had refused the request to fight yesterday, so why today did he specially invite everyone to discuss combat? What was he planning?
Soon, the time arrived, and Lion Mad walked into the combat room, looking at everyone present, smiling as he said, "Everyone is here, now letâs discuss the battle plan!"
