When a friend sends a letter inviting you for dinner your first reaction would be a smile as it's most likely to give good news.
When a business acquaintance sends a letter it most likely to gloat and check out how his or her only friend is doing but when on receives a letter from the beast council, you know then that shits hit the fan.
Most people invited end up either working for the beast council or simply disappear from the face of the world as for those who run away or simply ignore it end up having to mysteriously end up disappeared.
So when I received a letter from the beast council sorry ,a summons from our great leaders from the beast council , I knew that I'd just stepped out of cow shit into pig shit.
Looking at the nervous old men and the arrogant youths, a bit of disappointment crept in to my heart and was only kept at shore by the calm eyes of my disciple.
" master I believe that among everyone here, I should be the one to go to the meeting " Alex said in a casual yet authoritative way.the presence of the young malnourished and improvised boy had been erased completely giving way to the talented and charismatic city lord of the green river city.
Without any hesitance and with the decisiveness of a talented general, he stated what everyone had been putting off.
" someone has to go and see what the council is up to, you can't go as you are the leader of the edge yet we can't simply send any one of the city lords lying around ,we've grown powerful but not powerful enough to ignore the powerful clans of the beast world.
While we may have many immortal Kings and thousands of heavenly immortal warrior's, the council members are all immortal emperors with powerful foundations and dao .let's not even talk about the head of the council the dragon clans that just keep poping geniuses out of air as though they were as cheap as dirt." Upon the mention of the dragon clan, many had mixed expressions appeared on the faces of all in the meeting such as awe, hatred, disbelief and finally respect.
The dragon clan claimed and proven to be the most powerful in all of the beast world for countless epochs,respected for their strength and wisdom but hated for their overbearing nature towards the rest of the beasts .
Their overbearing nature had once gotten so out of mind as to cause a rebellion led by the second strongest of the beasts, the Phoenix clan which went on to rule the beast world for a period of one Yuan epoch and suppressed by the dragon clan once more, this time even more.
Due to the arrogance of the Phoenix clan during the weakened period time for the dragon clan ,longstanding haterd along with their betrayal that moved the dragon clan's court in to the circle. This led to a division of the council into two ,the dragons and phoenix clans with other clans becoming surbodinate clans to the two.
Though the dragon clan had many great leaders with overwhelming power none dared underestimate the phoenix clan with the nine rebirths of nirvana and their endless connections thus a deadlock between the two.
" Alex ,go to the dragon clan as a guest and send a few gifts to the Phoenix clan .attend the meeting as my disciple and the city lord of green river city show our pride and don't dare return if no bones are broken on the enemies side."
