Sword God in a World of Magic

In front of Shang were humongous mountains, which were piercing the lightning-filled clouds.

Lightning exploded everywhere, and Shang could barely see any flora.

But the fauna definitely didn't disappoint.

Shang could feel many Archbeasts and a couple of Ancestral Beasts.

Shang immediately knew where this was.

'The Thunder King's island,' Shang thought.

The Thunder King was the Beast King that lived on the most northwestern island of the world, and it was part of the Lightning Manor's territories.

Naturally, the Thunder King couldn't possibly resist the Lightning Manor, so he could only go along with whatever the Lightning Manor wanted from him.

Luckily, the Lightning Manor wasn't very exploitative, and they actually had quite a good relationship with the Thunder King's island.

Many Sparks and Boltlings were allowed to travel to this place and fight the beasts, but there were rules in place that stopped extremely powerful beasts from killing them but also stopped the humans from exploiting the beasts.

Beasts were not nearly as ambitious as humans. As long as they could become stronger and could find a safe place to retreat, they wouldn't care for more.

Since Beast Lords were about as smart as humans, they also knew that humans vastly outclassed and outnumbered them.

This actually made them thankful to the Lightning Manor since it stopped humans from completely eradicating the island.

So, the Beast Lords were quite loyal to the Lightning Manor, and they were not interested in any sort of offer or bribe from another Empire.

They had food, their own place, and could fight in peace.

Even if every single Beast Lord saw Shang's powers, they wouldn't tell any human that didn't belong to the Lightning Manor.

On top of that, there were plenty of Peak Beast Lords to choose from.
