Chapter 1004 The Western Tribes' Meeting

"You should have already finished your hours for the night shift. Go find the next person for sentry duty and get some sleep, brother," the other Mid-rank Great Warrior suggested.

"Alright. I think I will do just that," the Mid-rank Great Warrior nodded.

…

The entire Golden Suanni Tribe was founded on top of the high-rise plateau. Its particular terrain made it a natural fortress with great defense and a good view of its surroundings.

Even so, it wasn't a reason for the Golden Suanni Tribe to be complacent.

As such, they had sentries on duty at every time of the day, especially during such turbulent times when another tribe could attack them at any time.

Nevertheless, the Golden Suanni Tribe never paid much thought to the aesthetics of their buildings, which were all tents made of beast bones, hide, and leather.

At that moment, a high-level meeting was held inside a bone tent that was fourfold the size of the average tent in the Golden Suanni Tribe.

The chief of the Golden Suanni Tribe and various western tribe leaders were all present.

They gathered around a stone table with a big leather map of the Infertile Plains laid out on it, recording multiple strategic points of interest.

All the tribes of the other regions were all marked on the map, as well as their threat level.

"News of the Battle God Palace launching major campaigns on the eastern tribes arrived earlier in the day. The Battle God Palace has finally started assuming an active role in its conquest. We need to start preparing as well," a western tribe leader mentioned objectively.

"Considering the distance between the westernmost region and the eastern region, this piece of news should be over several days old already," Chief Sur-Kahn of the Golden Suanni Tribe frowned.

"How did the King-rank tribes in the central region respond to the Battle God Palace's movements?"

"According to our intelligence, none of the four King-rank tribes made any move on the Battle God Palace. Even the Holy Sunfire Tribe, which lies to the east of Steelpeak Mountains, only scouted from a distance as the Battle God Palace's troops were passing their territory."

Another western tribe leader by the name of Siwu-Tahk reported.

"Besides the Black Warbear Tribe and Divine Tortoise Tribe solidifying the powers in their territories, only the Mighty Whitewolf Tribe made a move on the northern tribes," Siwu-Tahk added.

"This is such a good chance to understand the situation within Battle God Palace. Unfortunately, none of these King-rank tribes dare to investigate," Sur-Kahn said with a frown.

"No surprise there, Alliance Leader. The prestige of Battle God is undeniable. Everyone wants to rule, but no one wants to take the risk," another western tribe leader by the name of Sar-Rakshi inserted.

They were all Battle Kings, but only the Alliance Leader Sur-Kahn was a Peak-rank Battle King.

Everyone else was at the Low-rank Battle King level.

"Make sense. A single mistake could spell the downfall of the entire tribe when it involves the Battle God Palace," Siwu-Tahk nodded and said.

"However, the First Palace Lord was secretly manipulating the situation in the eastern tribes. For the Battle God Palace to attack the eastern tribes now…"

"Does that mean something happened to the First Palace Lord?" Siwu-Tahk wondered.

The meeting went silent for a few moments before Sul-Dahki, another western tribe leader, decided to contribute a piece of information to the table.

"It's unconfirmed, but I received news from my spies in the Black Warbear Tribe that all three of the Battle God Palace's Palace Lords went to the southern tribes. However, only the Third Palace Lord returned from there."

"What?"

The various leaders quickly expressed their astonishment.

"Does that mean the southern tribes had someone capable of killing the first and second palace lords? Is that possible? The first and second palace lords were both Extremity-rank Battle Kings!"

Sar-Rakshi stated with astonishment written all over his rough face.

Sur-Kahn frowned deeply in thought.

"The southern tribes were under the Third Palace Lord's protection. I'm more inclined to believe the Third Palace Lord laid a trap for the First and Second Palace Lords to jump in," Siwu-Tahk stated.

"However, it doesn't make sense that the Third Palace Lord could mobilize the Battle God Palace's troops to launch campaigns on the eastern tribe right after. It should have taken him time to unite the scattered powers in the Battle God Palace."

"Even more baffling is the fact that there's still no news from the Battle God himself after all that had happened," Siwu-Tahk mentioned.

"We've long suspected that something had happened to the Battle God," Chief Sul-Dahki stated.

"That's why everyone dares to challenge the Battle God Palace for hegemony over the plains. The Battle God's inactivity after all this has pretty much confirmed our suspicions."

"But the Battle God Palace isn't what we should be worrying about right now, is it?" Chief Sul-Dahki said objectively.

"That's right," Chief Siwu-Tahk agreed with a nod.

"We've gathered today to discuss the future direction of the western tribe alliance. Although our western region is united, we are still far from the hegemon position."

"We will need to absorb the northern tribes or southern tribes, or even both, to have the other King-rank tribes and the Battle God Palace acknowledge our hegemony," Chief Siwu-Tahk stated.

"The southern tribes are off-limits while the situation with the first and second palace lords remain unknown to us," Alliance Leader Sur-Kahn stated solemnly.

"The southern tribes are too close to the demon's territory. We don't know if the southern tribe has a Battle God or any dealings with the demons that resulted in the two palace lords' disappearance."

"Either way, both are bad news for us," Alliance Leader Sur-Kahn stated in a firm tone.

"Then are you suggesting we direct our swords at the northern tribes, Alliance Leader?" Chief Sul-Dahki asked for confirmation.

"Targeting the northern tribes is our best option." Alliance Leader Sur-Khan nodded and said, "But we will only launch minor skirmishes to test the strength of the northern tribes."

"After all, we still have to watch the Divine Tortoise Tribe neighboring us."

The western tribe leaders nodded in agreement.

They couldn't be too careless with the Divine Tortoise Tribe. The Divine Tortoise Tribe could be waiting for a chance to strike at them for all they know.
