Chapter 2039: Chapter 2043: Killing Two Birds with One Stone, the Jingtian Conspiracy!

"Stop talking nonsense. I don’t like you, and we’ll never be possible. I’ve told you this countless times; I hope this is the last time."

The Fox King still turned his head aside and said.

"If you don’t like me, why did you write me love letters in the first place? You clearly seduced me, and now you’re backing off... That’s not right." Xiong King said seriously, seemingly used to it and not minding the Fox King’s rejection.

"Writing love letters... That was over eighty years ago. I was young and ignorant back then... Now, after more than eighty years, haven’t you always said everything has changed? So have I."

"But your liking for pear flowers hasn’t changed, right? Anna, these past eighty years, I’ve been planting a hundred pear trees every year on a barren mountain at the border of our lands; now there are over eight hundred... These pear trees bloom all year round, so I named the mountain ’Baili Mountain’... Anna, shall we both give up being kings and go to Baili Mountain to live in seclusion?"

"Xiong King... your math skills, after all these decades, are still... A hundred trees a year, eighty years, that’s over eight thousand trees..."

The Fox King rolled his eyes at the Xiong King.

Xiong King scratched his head and chuckled: "Ah, I’ve improved my arithmetic quite a lot; I was a bit nervous and misspoke..."

"Stop it; you’re the Xiong King, and I’m the Fox King. Let me say it again, Xiong Da, stop having delusions; there can never be anything between us. I’m leaving..."

The Fox King didn’t want to say more and turned to leave.

"Hehe, Anna, I just like it when you call me Xiong Da..."

Xiong King watched the Fox King’s departing figure, chuckling foolishly and said, "Since you’ve decided to go, make sure to send scouts. If anything happens, notify me immediately, and I’ll spare no effort to save you."

The Fox King didn’t respond, while Xiong King watched her back, smiling from ear to ear.

Meanwhile, in the great hall, the expressions of the Lion King and Tiger King were indescribably grave.

"The Fox King is going to persuade the Leopard Girl. What do you think?" the Lion King asked the Tiger King.

The Tiger King shook his head, smiling faintly: "The Fox King is daydreaming, haha... How could she possibly persuade the Leopard Girl? Doesn’t the Leopard Girl know that besides the Wolf King, the Lion Clan, Xiong Clan, and Tiger Clan also dispatched troops? Doesn’t she know that the old Leopard King’s death is inseparable from us? She knows, so she will definitely not fight alongside us."

"So, should we prepare the troops in advance?" the Lion King said.

The Tiger King looked serious and shook his head: "Our two clans have no problem, but the Fox Clan and Xiong Clan... The Fox Clan has always had a good relationship with the Leopard Clan, and the Fox King is unlikely to attack the Leopard Girl."

"As for the Xiong King... humph, that brute, his lustful heart hasn’t changed in decades; who doesn’t know he had a thing with the Fox King back in the day? Now it seems that if the Fox King doesn’t make a move on the Leopard Girl, the Xiong King probably won’t either. We’re in a bit of a bind..." The Tiger King seemed worried.

The Lion King scratched his head: "Right, what to do? The Fox Clan and Xiong Clan are singing a different tune from us; forming an allied army is extremely difficult..."

"Lion King, otherwise... I have a bold proposal; I wonder if you’ll agree?"

The Tiger King narrowed his eyes, his face revealing a hint of cruelty.

"A bold proposal, what is it?" the Lion King asked.

"Killing two birds with one stone."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"The Fox King and Xiong King are opposing us, ignoring the Barbarian Clan’s centennial plan. We can’t be soft-hearted! Isn’t the Fox King going to Lang City to persuade the Leopard Girl? We can leak the news to Qin Tian in advance, so Qin Tian can prepare, and once the Fox King arrives, he can capture her immediately. Humph, by then, the Fox Clan will be leaderless, and everything will be under our control?"

The Tiger King said, eyes coldly looking at the Lion King.

The Lion King was startled: "Tiger King, you want to pull the rug out from under them and put the Fox King to death. But if the Xiong King finds out, he won’t let it go!"

"I know the Xiong King won’t let it go; that’s why I said it’s a plan to kill two birds with one stone."

The Fox King approached the Lion King, lowering his voice, "When the Fox King leaves Lang City, we can spread false news that the Fox King was chased by the Qin Army on the way back, humph, that lovesick fool Xiong King, having loved the Fox King for decades, will certainly go to save her personally... By then..."

"By then, you will set up an ambush and kill the Xiong King halfway?!"

The Lion King was shocked by the Tiger King’s bold proposal, "This really is a plan to kill two birds with one stone, intending to turn both the Fox Clan and Xiong Clan upside down!"

"It’s their own fault! Who told them not to cooperate with us!"

The Tiger King’s face was cold, "The Fox King can be cowardly, but the Xiong King, being the second largest tribe of the Barbarian Clan, forsakes everything for a woman; how can such a person be fit to be the Xiong King?"

He looked at the Lion King and said: "Lion King, once we deal with the Fox King and Xiong King, we can intervene in appointing the new Fox King and Xiong King, supporting someone obedient to take the throne. By then, you and my Tiger Clan will be the only two major tribes of the Barbarian Clan. What do you think?"

The Lion King was stunned for a while, staring at the Fox King.

For so many years, among the Barbarian Clan’s major tribes, the ranking has always been the Lion Clan, Xiong Clan, Wolf Clan, Fox Clan, Leopard Clan, and Fox Clan.

Now, with trouble in the Wolf Clan and the ambitious Fox King seeing hope for revitalizing the Tiger Clan, he proposes this plan to kill two birds with one stone. Once implemented, the future Barbarian Clan will be divided between the Lion Clan and Tiger Clan.

Seeing the Lion King hesitate, the Tiger King said: "Lion King, you just need to turn a blind eye; I’ll handle killing the Xiong King. By then, I’ll control the Xiong Clan, and you’ll control the Fox Clan. Your Lion Clan will remain the largest tribe of the Barbarian Clan, and my Tigers the second largest. How about it? Don’t worry; I have an insider in the Xiong Clan, and I’m ninety percent sure it will work."

"Lion King, after so many years, haven’t you had the ambition to take the Lion Clan one step further?"

The Tiger King stared at the Lion King and said.

"Yes!"

The Lion King’s eyes focused, and he turned to stare at the Fox King with unwavering determination, "I have ambition! Okay, go ahead with this plan; I’ll turn a blind eye. By then, I’ll join you in dividing the Xiong Clan and Fox Clan!"

...

The Fox King, accompanied by a few attendants, set out lightly to Lang City.

She didn’t know that her departure would bring earth-shaking changes to the Barbarian Clan!

Meanwhile, the Tiger King quietly sent people to Lang City to leak the news of the Fox King’s secret meeting with the Leopard Girl Yan Ruolan to the Qin Army’s senior officers.

Those officers, after receiving the confidential letter, went one by one to find Qin Tian and Zhou Yang.

"Boss, what do you think of this matter?"

After reading the confidential letter, Zhou Yang asked Qin Tian.
