While Leo, Chief Lago, and Iasiah were currently escaping towards the direction of the Phoenix Taming Tower, a loud roaring sound expectedly came from the direction of the Storm Sparrow Tree.

It obviously came from the Beast Lord Storm Sparrow, and it was its own reply to the Beast Lord Treasure Beetle.

"It\'s happening sooner than what we initially expected," Chief Lago said while looking towards the direction of the Storm Sparrow Tree.

Those two roars that they have heard from both of the Beast Lord Treasure Beetle and Beast Lord Storm Sparrow is definitely the signal that the temporary peace that they have agreed is now broken.

Leo became a bit surprised after hearing that loud sound. He really didn\'t expect that their goal would actually be completed this easily. Honestly, at first, he really thought that they would have to stay here for a few days. Yet now, just a few hours later after they finished assigning the teams, the peace between the Treasure Beetle tribe and Storm Sparrow tribe is actually already broken.

His decision of not to lead this mission is indeed a wise and correct choice. If it was him leading and making plans, then considering how extremely cautious he is and his hate of troublesome things, then the plan he would have thought of would have indeed taken them a few days just to complete. He even doubts that the result would be like what\'s happening right now.

"So, what should we do next?" Iasiah suddenly asked.

"Since the Treasure Beetle tribe and the Storm Sparrow tribe would most likely be fighting again today, then it should also be a time for us to begin catching 9 Star level Magical Beasts. But the question is, how should we do it?" Chief Lago added while looking at Leo.

Hearing both Chief Lago\'s and Iasiah\'s questions, Leo simply showed a mischievous smile on his face before saying, "Why are you asking me? The rest of you should be the ones that will decide the plan,"

They already executed a plan a while back then without informing him. Yet now they\'re actually asking him about what they should do next?

Of course, he\'s not angry or displeased about what they did that\'s why he\'s not helping them. In fact, he even agrees and approves of what they did as it resulted much better than what they had initially expected before.

And that\'s exactly the reason why he\'s not helping them right now, because he knows for certain that they would be able to think of a plan much better than his own plan... Or maybe they even already had a plan in their minds right now, it\'s just that they are still hesitating due to the fact that almost all the time it was his plans that get approved and executed in a situation similar to this.

He can\'t blame them and neither could he blame himself, since in the first place he is the Guild Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild, hence he has the complete right to do that. Not to mention, before following him in his journey to fight against the Gods, they even already agreed that they would follow him on whatever path he would be walking.

However, at the same time, his position and their choice before should also not be the reason why they can\'t decide on a plan. He long already understood this point. In fact, that\'s the exact reason why he assigned them as the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild in the first place. This is also the reason why right now he\'s letting them decide on what to do.

The reason why he was doing this is mainly because, deep inside of him, he\'s hoping that one day they would also be able to lead the Mischievous Lion Guild towards a better path without asking for his help and approval anymore, thus also marking the day that they\'ll officially become the pillars of the Mischievous Lion Guild.

"Great, then how about you stay back at the Phoenix Taming Tower while we handle the rest here?" Chief Lago suggested.

"If me staying away from danger could make it easier for all of you, then no worries," Leo expressed his understanding of Chief Lago\'s decision.

"I\'m really curious. Why are you surprisingly very cooperative and understanding today?" Chief Lago can\'t help asking. From the start of this mission until now, Leo has been giving them all the authorities and rights to decide on whatever they want. It\'s even to the point that he had actually conceded the position of Leader to Elvis, which he normally wouldn\'t do. He\'s really curious about the reason why Leo is doing this.

Leo didn\'t bother replying to Chief Lago\'s question as he simply showed him a smile.

Seeing Leo\'s smile, Chief Lago immediately understood that Leo doesn\'t plan on telling him the reason why. Meaning to say, it\'s up to him to uncover Leo\'s plans. It\'s actually very troublesome to do such a thing, but he is also fully aware that he can\'t just always rely on Leo to answer his questions and problems.

After getting Leo\'s approval, Chief Lago and Iasiah quickly escorted Leo to the Phoenix Taming Tower. After leaving him there, they then both returned to meet up with Charlotte, Elvis, and Nightingale.

They already know that just the two of them alone would not be enough to successfully catch a 9 Star level Magical Beasts. That\'s why they need to meet up with Charlotte and her team first.

....

Meanwhile, at this moment, Charlotte is currently busy sneaking around the tunnels that the Treasure Beetles have created around the Treasure Beetle Mountain.

Sticking closely behind were Nightingale and Elvis. The former had casted a Magic spell to hide his presence along with the latter. The both of them are sweating buckets of sweat right now as they\'re really anxious and nervous for their own lives. In fact, just now, they have actually encountered a group made up of ten 8 Star Treasure Beetles. If only Charlotte didn\'t casted a powerful Dark Cloak spell on the both of them, then they would have already been caught and chased away from the Treasure Beetle Mountain by a group of powerful Treasure Beetles.

It\'s really fortunate that Charlotte is a 9 Star Battle Mage. They understood clearly that if it wasn\'t for that, then sneaking in the Treasure Beetle Mountain would have been impossible for them.

"Are we there yet?" Elvis asked nervously. He can\'t remember how many times exactly he had asked such a similar question to them, but it should be tens of times already now. It\'s because they have already been walking in this place for over two hours now, yet they still haven\'t actually found any traces of Treasure Beetle\'s eggs. Back then, at that time when they were sneaking in the Storm Sparrow Tree, it only took them half an hour to finally find a nest full of Storm Sparrow\'s eggs.

"Elvis, I suggest that you stop asking such a question. It\'s annoying, and it\'s also just making me even more nervous here," Nightingale can\'t help requesting Elvis to stop.

"Oh, is that so? Then if only you didn\'t kneel on the ground and beg me to come along with you before, saying that it would be bad if there\'s only the two of you and that you really needed my help, then I wouldn\'t be here repeatedly asking this question!" Elvis exclaimed in irritation. He had already said before that he has no intention of looking for any Treasure Beetle\'s eggs because he plans to buy them instead from the others. But because Nightingale begged him to come along with them before they started sneaking inside the Treasure Beetle Mountain, he had no other choice but to just come with them... No, technically, he actually has a choice, which is to not come with them even if Nightingale begs him. But he wasn\'t such a heartless guy who would just abandon his allies, that\'s why he decided to just come along.

"You know I don\'t mean it that way, right?" Nightingale quickly understood his mistake. It\'s just that he\'s really nervous right now, and Elvis\' question just made it even more worst. To be more precise, Elvis\' question made him thought that maybe the Treasure Beetle\'s eggs are actually located somewhere really deep inside the Treasure Beetle Mountain and that it would take them a very long time to get there. Such a place is normally considered as the most dangerous area of any Magical Beast lair.

Elvis shook his head and replied, "No, the only thing I see here is, you don\'t exactly need my help,"

"Of course not- "Nightingale wanted to explain something, but he was suddenly interrupted by Charlotte.

"Can you two just shut up?!" Charlotte finally had enough. She had been expending more Dark Element Mana in order to not let any Treasure Beetles nearby notice the two fools. Can\'t they not see that they are currently surrounded by a lot of Treasure Beetles right now? One mistake here and she\'d definitely be unable to keep on hiding their own presence anymore.

"You see those guys there?" Charlotte pointed at the two 9 Star Treasure Beetles guarding at an entrance towards something that should be of importance to the Treasure Beetles. She continued, "If you don\'t shut up right now, then I don\'t mind letting those two eat you,"

"..."

"..."

Both Elvis and Nightingale finally decided to shut up after seeing the two 9 Star Treasure Beetles. A group of 8 Star Treasure Beetles is still something that they can escape away, but in the case of a 9 Star Treasure Beetle, not to mention two of them, it would be impossible to escape alive, even if the two of them help each other or just heartlessly leave one of them.

"Good," Charlotte said as she could finally breathe in relief.

After that scene just now, Charlotte, Elvis, and Nightingale continued sneaking inside the Treasure Beetle Mountain, searching for their nest in order to get themselves some Treasure Beetle\'s eggs.
