Chapter 1079 Entering The Tribe



The person's voice was quite aged, but it was also filled with the power and authority of an Extremity-rank Battle King.

Judging by the person's words, Leon did not doubt the person was the chief of the Divine Tortoise Tribe, Chief Ironshield.

Leon had learned of the name while he was still on his way to the Divine Tortoise Tribe.

"Yes, that is correct," Leon nodded before saying, "As I have introduced myself as the alliance leader of the southern and western tribes, you should be able to guess my intention for coming here."

"I am aware of that. However, you should also be aware that my Divine Tortoise Tribe has no interest in the battle of hegemony. We don't want to be involved in such conflicts. Thus, you are wasting your time here, Alliance Leader Leonhardt," Chief Ironshield stated.

"Do you think you can keep sitting on the sidelines forever?" Leon replied.

"I've heard your tribe hasn't sent out any warriors to hunt beasts for food. Do you have enough food to support everyone? Are you going to let your people starve if you don't, Chief Ironshield?"

Chief Ironshield fell silent for a period of time.

Nevertheless, Leon didn't keep waiting for Chief Ironshield to reply before he continued, "Do you think other tribes alone just because you don't want to be involved? No, you'll be forced to get involved."

"You sent out a large number of warriors, did you not? If you truly didn't want the Divine Tortoise Tribe to be involved in the battle of hegemony, why did you send your warriors out? Do you think they can return to the tribe if other tribes camp outside?"

"There isn't any other way," Chief Ironshield sighed.

"It's just as you suspected. The Divine Tortoise Tribe is currently experiencing a food shortage, and people are starving. As such, it was our clan's only chance to hunt when everyone's attention is still on the land of the Valiant Steelhorn Tribe."

"Swear your tribe's allegiance to me, Chief Ironshielf, and I will guarantee the safety and livelihood of your people," Leon stated.

Chief Ironshield fell silent again. After a few moments, he asked, "How can I just take your word for it? How can you guarantee that my people won't get involved in the bloody battle for hegemony?"

"Have you not sensed the auras of the two Divine Beasts behind me, Chief Ironshield? Or are you just feigning ignorance? Do you think I actually need to rely on the Divine Tortoise Tribe's manpower to end this battle for hegemony?"

"Divine Beasts, you say...? I had my doubts, but to think that they have truly surpassed the strength of Battle Gods. Divine Beasts... Divine Beasts... That's the same strength as Demon Lords..." Chief Ironshield muttered with a contemplating look.

At the same time, the gate watchers were also shocked by the revelation.

They thought the two auras belonged to Battle God-level existences, but in fact, the two existences were beyond the Battle God Realm!

"Before I give you an answer, I want to ask you a question. What do you think of the current situation in the Infertile Plains, Alliance Leader Leonhardt?"

"Pointless and unnecessary," Leon stated without hesitation.

"Pointless and unnecessary, huh? I see I see. So you also thought this battle of hegemony is absurd," Chief Ironshield shared the same thought and laughed. He was satisfied with Leon's answer.

Shortly after, Chief Ironshield's expression turned solemn before he barked, "Open the gates!"

"O-open the gates, Chief?" the gate watchers were immediately startled.

"That's right! Open the gates."

"U-understood, Chief."

The gate watchers did not need to be asked a third time before complying with Chief Ironshield's order.

Although they had their misgivings, they also trusted Chief Ironshield's judgment.

Before long, the thick and heavily-fortified gate opened, revealing the path into the Divine Tortoise Tribe. I think you should take a look at

However, Leon made a gesture for everyone on his side to stop following him, including Rainshine, who always rested on his shoulders.

"All of you will wait outside for me. Only I will enter the Divine Tortoise Tribe," Leon calmly stated.

Chief Sar-Rakshi and Chief Sul-Dahki were immediately startled.

"But Alliance Leader, it is not safe for you to enter alone. You should at least bring Lord Goldenstride or Lord Nightingale with you," Chief Sul-Dahki suggested.

"No need," Leon waved his hand dismissively before stepping into the Divine Tortoise Tribe alone.

Chief Sul-Dahki looked desperate and turned to Goldenstride and Nightingale and said, "Please convince the Alliance Leader to bring one of you two lords along."

He was afraid that if something happened to Leon, the Peak Paragon-level Golden Suanni, Cindertail back in the Western Region would destroy the western tribes in his fury.

An Early Paragon was already strong enough to rule the western alliance, let alone a Peak Paragon.

However, Nightingale casually glanced at the two chiefs before shaking her head.

"You don't understand anything."

"What do you mean?"

Chief Sul-Dahki frowned at Nightingale's word.

"I might have ascended to the Divine Beast Realm, but even I am not confident in beating the Lord in a fight."

"What?"

Chief Sar-Rakshi and Chief Sul-Dahki were stunned.

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm They couldn't tell if Lord Nightingale was being humble or if she was serious.

Chief Sar-Rakshi and Chief Sul-Dahki had been under the impression that the Alliance Leader's strength was only around the beginning of the Battle God Realm.

But hearing Lord Nightingale's words, they find it hard to believe that the Alliance Leader's strength had even surpassed the Battle God Realm.

And yet, at the same time, they also felt like it made a lot of sense.

After all, the Alliance Leader had to be very powerful to get the two Divine Beast-level existences to follow him – or so they believed.

Nevertheless, Nightingale's uncertainty lies in the Lord's various abilities and hidden trump cards.

...

Meanwhile, after Leon entered the Divine Tortoise Tribe alone, Chief Ironshield looked at him with surprise.

"You're not bringing the others in? Are you sure you want to enter alone, Alliance Leader Leonhardt?" Chief Ironshield asked.

"If you are concerned for my safety, then you can be reassured. I am completely confident in my strength," Leon calmly said before adding with a smile, "More importantly, the Divine Beasts on my side will only scare the children."

Chief Ironshield could not help but smile with amusement.
