"Don't worry, my friends from another city, they are friends," Tang Shaoyang smiled at the group.

He was aware that these people reacted that way because of Kairu, Wen, and Pride's presence. A four meters tall Demonic Ape and over a three meters Flaming Lion. That was enough to intimidate the soldiers who only met with the zombies all this time.

Hearing the voice, Yan Kui looked toward the voice. He was still uneasy with the presence of the three beastmen, but soon he realized the three beastmen just stayed behind the man.

His eyes looked around, trying to identify the people behind the man. Girls, young and mature ones. Men, young and adult ones. It was a mixed people, but he could tell that these people had a different aura.

Yan Kui tried to calm down immediately while assessing the situation. He realized that this was not just a normal civilian base. Taking a deep breath, he opened his mouth and started with the introduction.

"Hello, my name is Yan Kui," Yan Kui bowed his head slightly, "I am the soldier, First Lieutenant of SZ Military Region. Major General Shi Yan dispatched us here to talk with the Leader of this establishment,"

Yan Kui tried to remain respectful but he did not cower back despite the opposite party's intimidation. He mentioned his rank and also his superiors. He tried to counter the intimidation.

Tang Shaoyang's smile widened as he heard the introduction, "I am the Leader of this base, Tang Shaoyang," he replied casually.

"So, what does Major General Shi Yan want to talk about? I am all ears," he motioned to Yan Kui to take a seat.

Yan Kui was relieved that Tang Shaoyang was reasonable to talk with. He got the seat at the other end of the table.

As soon as he sat, there was a shadow flushed forward. The shadow was wearing the green military uniform.

"Kang Xue! Come with me! You don't have to force yourself to stay with this tyrant anymore. You will be safe in Military Establishment!"

Everyone was surprised to hear the voices. They looked toward the voice, including Tang Shaoyang while Yan Kui rooted-stunned with his subordinate's antics.

Tang Shaoyang scanned the man. The man seemed to be her woman's acquaintance. Their relationship was pretty close too for him to speak like that. But being called a tyrant, he was supposed to meet this man before.

Tang Shaoyang, however, could not remember the man. He did not recall ever meeting this man before. He turned his head toward his woman, "Do you know him?'

Kang Xue rolled her eyes at him, she could not believe that he would forget about the man in the military uniform. She chose to ignore Tang Shaoyang and responded to the man while shaking her head, "I am sorry, Yi Qiao, but this is my home now."

The man in the military uniform was Yi Qiao, her ex-boyfriend. The man who got trashed by Tang Shaoyang back then in the HZ Bay, when they met with Kang Jiayi's group.

Yi Qiao could not believe what he heard. He thought Kang Xue was forced to follow Tang Shaoyang because of his power. Still unable to believe her, he tried to convince her, "No, I am saying the truth. Half of the military force of the SZ Military Region survived. We can survive against the zombie even without this man!" Yi Qiao pointed his index finger at Tang Shaoyang. It was considered rude.

Yan Kui did not do anything as he watched everything unfold. He wanted to see Tang Shaoyang's reaction as his subordinate seemed to have a history with the leader of this base.

The same for Tang Shaoyang, he maintained his smile as he scanned Yan Kui's reaction.

"I can survive against the zombie even by myself, that's not the point, Yi Qiao," Kang Xue let out a sigh. She was guilty of what happened to this man, but her guilt was not enough to make her leave Tang Shaoyang. She made the choice, and she would live with it.

"I have chosen him to be my man, I am not going anywhere," She shook his head, "I hope you can forget the past and live on with your life now. I am sorry."

As she said that, she secretly blamed Tang Shaoyang. He was the cause of this, but she did not regret it either. She had made the decision.

Yi Qiao's eyes widened into a shock. He truly could not believe that the love they had was crumbling easily. Of course, the man still did not realize that Kang Xue did not love even before the disaster.

Her father was the reason she agreed to get a relationship. With an additional good impression she had for him, she was willing to try. But her job immediately separated both.

"You!" Yi Qiao turned toward Tang Shaoyang. His face turned red from anger, "This is because of you!"

Tang Shaoyang looked toward Yi Qiao then he looked back to Kang Xue. He still had no idea who Yi Qiao was. Maybe he deemed Yi Qiao as an unimportant passerby in his life, he immediately forgot about Yi Qiao after their first clash.

"Who is he?" He asked Kang Xue.

"How can you forget about him? He is Yi Qiao, my ex-boyfriend. You met him once back in HZ Bay," Kang Xue shook his head helplessly.

Being reminded, he remembered who the man was. Then he smiled back at Yi Qiao, "I agree with her. She is not the only fish in the sea, you should move on," he advised the man.

"I WILL KILL YOU!" Yi Qiao bellowed as he rushed toward Tang Shaoyang. However, he was deemed to not be able to reach Tang Shaoyang.

In his first step, Lu An appeared next to Yi Qiao. He launched a swept kick, tackling Yi Qiao down. Then he quickly drew his sword out and stabbed Yi Qiao's thigh. The sword pierced through the, nailed down to the floor.

Blood immediately spread out on the floor as Yi Qiao screamed in pain, "ARGHHH!!!"

"Don't worry, this is not going to kill him," Lu An waved his hand at Kang Xue, "We have healer too, this dude is safe. But lessons need to be taught or people like him think they can do whatever they want!" Lu An's voice was toneless and unfeeling.

Yan Kui's eyes enlarged in shock as he immediately got up from the seat. He was about to ask for an explanation from Tang Shaoyang, but three of his people rushed toward Lu An.

"That's not how you teach them a lesson," Kairu's big body flashed forward. He appeared in front of the three people who tried to save Yi Qiao. The Lion Beastmen punched the man in the middle.

The latter immediately fell, crouching on the ground with his hand on the belly. Then Kairu's hand moved quickly, catching the other two men's heads. He grabbed their heads and slammed them down to the floor.

The head slammed to the floor. The floor broke, but the two men's heads also broke as blood painted the floor. Kairu did not stop there as he raised his right foot, stepping on the man who crouched on the ground.

Bang!

Another head broke and a scream echoed through the room, "Don't worry, I am using considerate force. I don't kill them," the lion head grinned at Tang Shaoyang.

"Leader Tang! What's the meaning of this!?" Yan Kui slammed the table and questioned Tang Shaoyang. His anger overcame his shock.

"Hmmm, their greeting may be rough, but they mean well," Tang Shaoyang maintained his smile as he responded.

"They almost killed my men, this is unacceptable!" Yan Kui of course could not accept a sloppy response.

"What do you mean that was unacceptable? They were protecting me from your men who tried to attack me first, correct me if I am wrong, Mr. Yan?"

Only then Yan Kui came to the realization that they were in the wrong. But of course, he could not admit it.

"On top of that, part of the blame is on you. If you can manage your men well, this is not going to happen," Tang Shaoyang was still smiling.

Yan Kui loss for words. He indeed did not stop Yi Qiao from making a ruckus. Again, he had to protect his people even though they were in the wrong. He could not show a weak performance to the opposite party before the talk.

"But you don't have to worry about your subordinate, we will be responsible for that," He then motioned to Arina and Selena, "They are the Chief General of my Healer Division, they can heal your people."

Lu An and Kairu stepped aside. Yi Qiao screamed out aloud when the sword pulled out from his thigh while the other three were groaning in pain on the ground.

Selena and Arina quickly cast a healing spell on the four people. The four stopped groaning as their wounds were healed.

Yan Kui witnessed everything, then he realized that he was not facing normal people. He quickly broke into a cold sweat as the beforehand scenario replayed in his mind.

He could not see Lu An and Kairu's movement. They appeared all of sudden and took down his men. It was not something ordinary people could do.

At the same time, he was relieved that the leader did not act unreasonably by starting to attack them. It was clear that he could still talk with them.

"Mr. Yan, let's pause the talk for later. What about if you and your subordinates go to rest first. We can continue the talk later at night or tomorrow," Tang Shaoyang proposed while maintaining his smile.

All his subordinates in the room cast a bizarre look at him. They thought their Boss would beat these people after what happened. Who did not know their Boss's temper? Everyone knew that was why they were surprised by his amicable manner.

"Yes, let's do that," Yan Kui immediately agreed. It was too awkward to continue the talk. He also needed to brief his subordinates, they were doing whatever they wanted even without his consent.

Qin Shoushan and Cao Yuntai led guests out of the room.

Yan Kui did not apologize for his subordinates' behavior until they left.

"What do you want to do with them?" As soon as the guests left, Zhang Mengyao asked Tang Shaoyang. These people came with a hidden motive. She was curious as to why Tang Shaoyang did not drive them out.

"They are on a diplomatic mission, it's normal to treat the diplomatic guests well," that was his answer as he got up from the seat.

"Origin, Watch these people out. I want to know what they are up to, I am curious too," Tang Shaoyang ordered Origin.

[Yes, My Lord!]
