The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 403 A Woman's Plan

As long as Beauty didn't tag along, Soldier figured things would be much easier to handle. Worst case scenario, they could find a way to eliminate the country kid and dump him in the hills.

Anyway, Soldier didn’t want to venture into the hills searching for the Tiger King. It was a suicide mission.

“No way! I have to go check on that beast myself! I need to see how it's doing and if it's been hurt."

"Lady, the Tiger King's gone rogue; it's really dangerous. I’m worried you might get hurt. It's best if you stay behind!"

"Are you trying to tell me what to do?"

"Of course not! I wouldn’t presume to! I’m just trying to warn you that the Tiger King has lost its mind. It's uncontrollable now."

"Uncontrollable? What do you mean? Are you saying our expensive Tiger King, raised by The Matthews, is no longer ours? That we can't make use of it?"

Beauty’s question made Soldier visibly uncomfortable.

"Lady, the Tiger King of the Spirit Realm isn't some ordinary tiger. No matter what we do, we can't domesticate it. Once it has awakened, no one can control it. Anyone who tries is nothing but tiger food."

The fear was real.

Before the Tiger King’s escape, several of Soldier's men were devoured alive by the beast.

They tried sedating it with loads of tranquilizers, but it was no use. The usual sedatives did nothing to it.

In the end, the Tiger King ran off into the hills.

Soldier dared not follow, but he dispatched several teams of his men.
