271 Our King

This was bad for sure, one was hard for him, two while protecting Arina and the villagers would be much harder.

'I just hope that they will only target me, it seems we will be trying the integration again, Teacher,' he spoke to Zaneos through his thoughts.

—Why Zaneos, why don't you use me?

Zowen felt that she was being looked down on by Tang Shaoyang when he spoke that. But Zaneos explained in the stead of Tang Shaoyang.

—Your magic is very useful if it's a big battle against a big crowd. You have an area-targeted skill, but in one vs one, your magic is weak, especially against someone strong like these two Beastmen. Your [Lightning Advanced Creation] might work on them, but he would exhaust his mana before he could kill two of them. You should realize that the skill he has from integration with you would not be of much use against these two!

Zowen replied with silence, she admitted inwardly that the power Tang Shaoyang had was not her full. She admitted it right away with her silence.

—But integrate with me at the last moment if you can't hold them with Karan. I am afraid that my demonic energy will affect you in a bad way.

Yeah, the main reason Tang Shaoyang did not integrate with Zaneos was because of his demonic energy. Even though Zaneos was in the form of the spirit, his demonic energy had a big influence on his body that may be harmful. They just never dared to test it out to integrate more than a minute since Tang Shaoyang showed a demonizing sign after a minute integration with the Demon Swordsman.

"Calm down, Wen. I am coming to help you," Kairu walked out from behind the tree relaxingly. The giant beastmen walked out as he scanned Tang Shaoyang with his interested gaze.

"Don't you hear him? We come not to fight you, but talking," Kairu pointed at the Jade Eagle with his big finger. The Flaming Lion only had four fingers and all of them were three times bigger than Tang Shaoyang's thumb.

Tang Shaoyang listened to the two beastmen's conversation and cast [Basic Detection] on the Jade Eagle for the second time. He found out the Jade Eagle's name was Wen.

—They wanted to talk, they said. Better we should listen to them first. This beastmen seems to be organized, not just some random beastmen you fought earlier.

Zaneos spoke to his head.

It was indeed a pity that he could not kill them to level up, but since Tang Shaoyang's priority was his subordinates and the villagers' safety, that was the best option for now.

"What do you want from me?" Tang Shaoyang agreed to talk with the two beastmen.

"Tsk, I thought he would be a little bit unyielding and put up some fight, this is not funny, at all," Kairu clicked his tongue in annoyance. He was expecting a little fight from the man but was disappointed with the result.

But Wen thought differently than his friend. The Jade Eagle looked toward Tang and the cautious girl behind him. He could tell why Tang suddenly relented instead of stubbornly confronting him.

If Kairu did not come, Wen was sure that the man would fight him, 'This brute surely has some uses too,' thought the Jade Eagle to himself.

"Our King is willing to meet you in private, please follow us," Wen informed Tang Shaoyang politely.

'Sure enough, someone like him will not just follow us if we say so,' Wen thought after noticing the frown on Tang Shaoyang's face. He was quite observant and could read the opposite party's mood through facial expressions.

"I thought you wanted to talk? Why don't you just relay your King's words? Or let your King meet me will do too," Tang Shaoyang's reply enraged the Flaming Lion, "Don't be cocky, Human!!! If you don't follow us, then we will break your legs and drag you to our King!" Kairu took a big step forward and threatened Tang Shaoyang menacingly.

A loud roar escaped out his mouth, showing his pointy and big teeth. It was enough to scare the kids, but Tang Shaoyang was not in the slightest intimidated by Kairu.

"If they start to attack, you run back to the village. Warn them and evacuate to a safer place," Tang Shaoyang whispered to Arina in a low voice. But he soon noticed the girl wanted to say something, but he shook his head, "Listen to me! Go back to the village and evacuate! That's your task!"

Arina had no choice but to nod her head. She realized that she would be a little help against the beastmen that alarmed even Tang Shaoyang himself. She would be a burden instead of helping him.

'My guess is right, he was concerned about his women and the villagers,' Wen could hear his whisper with his keen hearing.

"Kairu! Shut the f*ck up!" Wen called out the Flaming Lion. The Jade Eagle earned a strong glare from the lion beastmen, but the latter stepped back under Wen's strong glare.

"Our King could not go out of his palace because of his condition. It does not allow him to come out, and I can't relay the message because I don't know what Our Lord wants to talk with you. It should be something that could only be discussed between you and him, we, his subjects are not allowed to know that," Wen informed the situation cordially.

It was not that he was afraid of Tang Shaoyang, it would be just better if they could talk it out rather than having a fistfight. On top of that, it was The King's order to treat Tang Shaoyang politely.

Before Tang Shaoyang could respond to him, one of his subordinates descended from the sky, "Sir Wen, a big group of humans is approaching the village!"

Wen's subordinate did not lower his voice and Tang Shaoyang could hear their conversation clearly.

'This is my chance!' Wen thought until he saw Tang Shaoyang's figure dashed back toward the village direction.
