Chapter 435: Chapter 434 The Decision of the Lion Tiger Sword Saint
"Serves them right, they had it coming," Little Cat couldn\'t help but interject from the side. This tall Lion Tiger Tribe woman clearly harbored a deep hatred for the Golden Lion Clan and the Golden Holy Tiger lineage.
The Great Elder sighed deeply and said, "To have fallen to such a state, indeed they have fallen so low! Did the White Tiger Great Demon King not make a move?"
Tang San shook his head and replied, "I do not know about that. But it was the Golden Lion King who died, not the Golden Tiger King. This might be why the White Tiger Great Demon King chose not to intervene."
The Great Elder looked at him and asked, "Do you want Big Cat to take up the God-killing Sword?"
Tang San countered, "Does the Great Elder wish for the Lion Tiger Tribe to live here in peace and happiness forever, or to break out and create your own world, showing those who once thought you brought bad luck who truly evolved?"
The Great Elder fell silent, and the Lion Tiger Sword Saint didn\'t make a sound either. Little Cat looked at Tang San, then at Big Cat, wanting to speak but ultimately refraining. Deep down, she did not want her husband to take risks. However, the suggestion came from her savior, and she found it difficult to argue otherwise. Moreover, she always knew her husband possessed an unyielding spirit. Being the strongest warrior of the Lion Tiger Tribe and now possessing a First-level Bloodline, should he really spend the rest of his days hidden in this utopia?
Tang San said, "You don\'t have to feel pressured. I just think this is an opportunity, an opportunity for the Lion Tiger Tribe to return to the stage of history. If you think it\'s not feasible, then I don\'t want the Sword Saint Order. It\'s also not a loss to the Golden Lion Clan. They don\'t know who I am, and if they intend to investigate, they have to weigh against the Sword Saint Palace."
The Great Elder sighed, "Benefactor, our tribe has just struggled back from the brink of life and death, and this is all thanks to you. I shouldn\'t—but our clansmen are so few, and perhaps it\'s because I\'ve grown old, I really don\'t want our children to take risks anymore. At least let\'s wait until our tribe is well-developed and stronger."
Tang San nodded, "I respect your opinion." He was not completely certain he could persuade the Lion Tiger Tribe in the first place. Since the Great Elder was unwilling, he naturally wouldn\'t force anything.
"No, I will go!" Just then, the Lion Tiger Sword Saint, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up.
The Great Elder and Little Cat both turned to look, seeing Big Cat\'s resolute gaze.
"Great Elder, Little Cat. Our benefactor is right, we cannot miss this opportunity. We must not lose our edge because of the hardships we\'ve undergone. The Golden Lion Clan has lost its patriarch and currently is like a pride without a leader. In the past, to the lion and tiger races, we were deemed ill-omened heretics. Now, with our benefactor\'s help, we\'ve resolved the issue of bloodline isolation and evolved to a higher level of bloodline. At a time when the Golden Lion Clan needs it most, we can offer them hope."
While speaking, he gazed at the surrounding Golden Valley, "This place is lovely, and I once thought that spending my entire life here with Little Cat would be bliss. But should a man not aspire to stand tall and proud? Are we, the Lion Tiger Tribe, truly supposed to wait here for death? Great Elder, you know best that with the current number of our people, if we continue to multiply, our lineage will likely end in three generations at most. The bloodline is getting thinner, and it\'s so difficult to produce offspring. Is this what we want?"
"To advance further and ensure a better future for our race, we actually need their recognition and support. Only in this way can the Lion Tiger Beast lineage truly stand tall in the Tianyu Empire. So, I must go. I must claim the God-killing Sword, I must become the Demon King, and in the future, even strive for the level of Great Demon Emperor. If I can become a Great Demon Emperor, who would dare call the Lion Tiger Tribe a bad omen?"
Seeing the Great Elder\'s eyes gradually redden, the Lion Tiger Sword Saint softened his voice, "Great Elder, I know what you\'re worried about. Let it be just me who goes, just me alone. Even if something really happens to me, it won\'t affect the current situation of our tribe. Let me go, otherwise I will never be at peace for the rest of my life. And if I succeed, it will be a rebirth for our tribe, a true rebirth."
Its eyes revealed decisiveness and resilience, along with a kind of pride Tang San had once seen in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena.
The Lion Tiger Sword Saint had never been willing to be inferior to anyone; it wanted to become stronger, it had acquired the Lion Tiger Golden Gang but what it lacked was the supportive strength from behind.
The Golden Lion Clan was an ancient and powerful race with profound heritage. Returning to the Lion Tribe to prove the existence of the Lion Tiger Beast was not an omen of bad luck. By gaining their recognition and support with its strength, becoming a more powerful Lion Tiger Sword Saint, and standing at the peak of the Monsters one day—that was what it desired.
Because Tang San saw through its nature, he chose to bid for the God-killing Sword for it at the grand auction.
The Great Elder looked at it, his eyes gradually changing. He firmly patted the shoulder of the Lion Tiger Sword Saint, "You are already the patriarch of the Lion Tiger Tribe. Your decision is the decision of the tribe. I am old, I will just protect our backyard well, guarding our clansmen."
The Lion Tiger Sword Saint opened its arms and gave the Great Elder a powerful hug, "Elder, believe me, I will do well. I will surely become the pride of the Lion Tiger Tribe."
"You may go!" It was at this moment another voice came from next to the Lion Tiger Sword Saint. It abruptly turned its head to look at Little Cat.
Little Cat\'s eyes were shining as she looked at it, "But you cannot abandon me. My illness is cured, and my bloodline has also merged. I am the strongest among the females of our tribe, and you want to be a hero of the Lion Tiger Tribe, so do I. So wherever you go, I will go. As long as you take me with you, if you want to slaughter, I will join you in slaughter. If you want to ascend to the heavens, I will accompany you into the sky, and if you desire to dive into the sea, I will dive with you. If you live, I will live; when you become the Lion Tiger Great Demon Emperor, I will be your queen. If you die, I will die, and even in death, our tails will be coiled together."
Little Cat\'s words were just as decisive, without a hint of hesitation.
Big Cat\'s eyes were slightly moist, and it suddenly opened its arms wide, pulling Little Cat into its embrace, "Alright, we will live and die together. As long as I draw breath, I will never let any existence harm you."
Watching this scene before him, Tang San couldn\'t help feeling a touch of melancholy, and even a flicker of doubt crossed his mind about whether what he had done was right or wrong.
But he quickly dismissed the thought. With the Lion Tiger Sword Saint\'s nature, even if he didn\'t provide such an opportunity this time, it would likely seek out its own chances to venture out. Its heart was not one for stillness.
"Benefactor, when shall we depart?" the Lion Tiger Sword Saint asked Tang San.
Tang San said, "I need to return to the Ancestral Court first to take care of some affairs. I will also stay here for two more days. You can start preparing and then head straight to the Ancestral Court and check into the White Tiger Grand Hotel. I can fly faster than you all, so after staying for two days, I will catch up with you. We will meet at the Ancestral Court and then set out together for the Golden Lion Clan."
"Okay."
The Lion Tiger Tribe couldn\'t fly, not being Winged Tigers. Even if they could fly briefly with the help of the Lion Tiger Golden Gang, they could not sustain it. Tang San asked them to go ahead because he still had some matters to deal with here. Even if he left two days later, he would probably arrive at the Ancestral Court before the Lion Tiger Sword Saint couple.
