《Armipotent 》Chapter 516: The Old Tales
Advertisement
The Abyss Tribe was an ancient tribe in the Gigante Forest, one of the oldest amongst the three oldest tribes. The other two tribes were the Elven and the Moon Tribe. Different from the other tribes, the Abyss Tribe was composed of Abyss Clans; Abyss Sabre, Abyss Raven, Abyss Vulture, Abyss Wolf, and Abyss Ox.
The five clans formed the Abyss Tribe and became the strongest tribe in the Gigante Forest. That was not the only reason why the tribe became the strongest. There was another reason, it was because Kirin the Guardian Beast was on their back. The Protector of the Abyss, that was what the Abyss Tribe people called Kirin.
However, that title did not last long for them to hold. The demon race managed to reach the Ortis Continent. The whole continent united against the demon and managed to repel the demon.
However, as the vanguard of the Ortis Continent's force, the Abyss Tribe suffered a big loss. The Abyss Wolf Clan and the Abyss Ox Clan suffered ninety percent loss while the Abyss Sabre managed to preserve their force. The Abyss Sabre only suffered thirty percent of their force, the sole clan that preserved their force.
This was the start of the disaster. The Abyss Sabre Clan wanted to be the leader of the Abyss Tribe. They wanted to lead the whole tribe because they were the strongest clan at that time. They wanted to end the five ways of leadership. Of course, the other four clans refused the proposal, and the Abyss Sabre Clan thought they could intimidate the other clans with their force. However, that ended up with a civil war within the Abyss Tribe.
The Abyss Vulture decided to migrate and leave the Gigante Forest while the Abyss Ox Clan, the Abyss Raven, and the Abyss Wolf united. They fought the Abyss Sabre together, but they were getting outnumbered. When they were getting cornered, the three clans sought the Protector of the Abyss.

Jet's father who was at that time the Chief of the Abyss Raven Clan was tasked to meet Kirin the Guardian Beast. Jet and his father went to meet Kirin the Guardian Beast in Kirin's nest.
—At that time, I remembered that arrogant bastard was shaking his head and turned away from us! He left us to die! I understand if he did not want to help us, but could he at least protect us from the Abyss Sabre Clan?
Jet's angry voice rang in Tang Shaoyang's head. His anger was understandable, if Kirin protected the remaining three clans, then the Abyss Sabre Clan could not slaughter the remaining. While they could not preserve the Abyss Tribe, the three clans would be safe.
—We fought! I fought until the end. We made sure to kill each Abyss Sabre so they would also suffer from that stupid civil war. My Father and the other two Chiefs managed to kill the Chief and a few Elders of the Abyss Sabre Clan. We lost, but the Abyss Sabre Clan paid a huge price for that. If that cowardly vulture did not escape, we might even win the battle. Stupid vulture! Cowardly Vulture! Bastard Kirin!
The Gigante Forest was indeed more complicated than he thought. However, Tang Shaoyang gained a lot of information from Jet's story. Kirin was real, it existed. It was perfectly right as Aki described to him. Kirin had the body of an ox and the head of a dragon with scaly skin. However, the story did not mention the Green Sky Serpent. Even during the war against the demon race, Jet did not bring up the Green Sky Serpent.
'I see, what about the Abyss Sabre Clan? Don't you want revenge against them as well? Shouldn't you hate them more than Kirin?' Tang Shaoyang was quite surprised by this. He thought Jet should hate the Abyss Sabre Clan more than Kirin, but it was not the case.

—I hate them, of course. However, my hatred toward Kirin is much stronger. If you give me a choice what I will do when you resurrect me, then I will find a way to kill Kirin first even though that thing is much stronger than me.
Jet's answer was fast and firm. Weird yet understandable. Of course, as someone who was not raised in the Abyss Tribe, Tang Shaoyang was not aware how Jet's parents kept praising Kirin. Jet and the other kids were raised with an expectation of Kirin as a noble creature and a being that would protect them in the moment of danger. It could be said that Kirin was symbolized as a hero in the tribe.
So when the hero did not meet Jet's expectations and even abandoned them, the admiration became hatred. A deep hatred to the point the kid became a spirit, wanting to avenge his clansmen's death.
'I see, but we are going to face the Dark Tribe first, the tribe that is led by the Abyss Sabre Clan. I will help you with that first, how about it? I can even use their bodies for sacrifice so you can get stronger,' Tang Shaoyang tried to cheer the Abyss Raven.
—Then I will accept your offer. Let's hunt the cat with a big tooth first then we will hunt the dragon-headed ox.
Jet's excited voice rang in his head. The Abyss Raven seemed excited about the future battle. However, Tang Shaoyang was not going to miss the chance to gain more information about the Gigante Forest. The Elven for example. The Green Sky Serpent for example.
'What about the second Guardian Beast, the Green Sky Serpent? Do you know anything about the second Guardian Beasts?' Tang Shaoyang asked. He was not expecting that he would be surprised by Jet's answer.
—Second Guardian Beast? What are you talking about? The Gigante Forest only has one Guardian Beast and it is the dragon-headed ox. Are we speaking the same Gigante Forest in the Ortis Continent? I feel like you are talking about a different forest.
Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow and glanced at Aki. The rat beastmen was the one who told him about the Green Sky Serpent, did the rat beastmen lie to him?
Aki felt uncomfortable that Lord Tang suddenly glared at him. He felt something amiss from the glare even though he could not pick up what was wrong with the glare, 'Do I do something wrong again?' The Dark Tremor beastmen questioned himself.
