C323 - Chaos
Posted on December 22, 2018 by AzureOrchid92
After their escape, Shao Xuan searched for a place to look at Chacha's injury. It was nothing big, just a few feathers, so they took off again.
They did not immediately return to the Luoye station, but looked around the Beast City desert for a place where people, animals and activities were few.
In addition, the city was usually more lively compared to outside. This piece of snowy desert has a lot of places where there were few activities of people and animals. With the opening of the Colosseum, there were fewer people coming out too. For Shao Xuan, that's a good thing.
He needed a quiet, undisturbed and unnoticed place to break through.
Yes, Shao Xuan felt the barrier when he was practicing the law of slavery, which was more pronounced when the first lock was lifted from the beetle yesterday. The totem lines on his arms were very close to his wrist and seemed to be able to rush through as long as he waited a little longer.
In an ordinary time, Shao Xuan would adopt a more cautious air, but the situation was different now, especially after that short meeting with Dao Yu. The decision in his heart was more firm. He must break through this barrier as soon as possible!
Dao Yu had the heart to kill them. After just the previous incident, Shao Xuan was already determined to know how Lei and Tuo were now. Were they still ok? If Dao Yu just wanted them to enter the Colosseum, then their lives were not in danger for the time being.
Shaking his head, Shao Xuan knew that the most important thing now was to first breakthrough. Even if he was more special compared to other people as he had killed more than one senior totem warrior, but after all, that could be because of skills and coincidence. There was no absolute suppression, especially in this place where there was enough intermediate totem warriors to see. Only through a breakthrough would there be more opportunities to save Lei and Tuo.
Back in the Luoye City station, Su Gu saw Shao Xuan safe and sound so he was relieved.
"Are you going to Beast City?" Shao Xuan asked.
"Yes! I heard that someone from Baishi just took a fighting beast to the city. It's just right for me to clean them up!" Su Gu commanded the slaves to take the scorpion beast out and prepare it for the fight in the city.
Shao Xuan cleaned up, then once again went to the Beast City with Su Gu.
When Dao Yu received the report from his men, he felt incredulous. That kid from this morning had eaten a loss, but this afternoon would actually dare to run to the city for a stroll? Was he not afraid to end up like his two companions?
"Then, should I find someone to teach him a lesson?" Dao Yu said to the people around. Although his mouth said to give a "lesson", his posture on the other hand, showed a hand slicing his throat.
Dao Yu looked around the men but didn't care about who."You." What he was thinking now was how to curry favor with the Baishi king instead of spending more energy paying attention to others.
At this time, in the Beast City, Su Gu was fighting with a small Baishi slave owner.
Su Gu's morale was good as he looked at the Baishi City people's eyes which were spraying fire. He didn't care about anyone else but these Baishi guys!
Like it felt Su Gu's anger, although the scorpion usually wouldn't give Su Gu face in the animal pen, but in this pit of the beasts, its state made Su Gu satisfied.
The other's fighting beast has been defending against the scorpion's tail. It was a surprise that the scorpion's fighting style was completely different than the previous ones of the same scorpion beast they had come up with in a fight, which usually uses its pincers.
As it was stimulated by Shao Xuan and was enslaved by Su Gu, this scorpion was angered, and it couldn't wait until it could finally openly vent it in this place and burst directly. With its vigorous strength, its big pincers waved and all was useless with its tail stings.
Shao Xuan didn't stay near the pit but walked around. In particular, where there was slavery happening to get a close-up feeling of slavery by the city's slave owners.
At this time, the blue flames in Shao Xuan's mind were very active. The enslavement methods of the slave owners in different places were mostly the same, with very few differences. When Shao Xuan experienced these small differences, he also followed it with his simulation, so that the blue flame in his mind remained active. As it became even more active, it would be good for his breakthrough, that was why he also chose to go to the city.
While observing the slavery of the slave owners, Shao Xuan also noticed that someone was following him, but he had already avoided several attacks. Here, he would not easily show his totem lines, and would not be unscrupulous to open up as it was the slave owners territory and the tribes should stay low-key.
Just as Shao Xuan returned to the side of the pit where Su Gu was, the pit fight had just finished. Seeing Su Gu laughing as he let the slaves hurriedly go down to check the scorpion's body for injuries, Shao Xuan knew that they won.
As the people around the pit were talking about the fight, a riot started.
Not far from them, a tall beast, like a giant bear suddenly went mad. The slaves who originally held it did not know why it went mad, then this fighting beast got out of its shackles and rushed to the crowd, to the direction of the pit where Su Gu just had the fight.
The giant bear rushed quickly. Its every foot was like a meteor failing on the ground and causing a vibration with the thundering sound. It jarred the people's nerves.
The slaves only guarded their own slave owners and wouldn't take care of other things.
The small riding beasts around were screaming and running around. When their plans were different from those riders on their backs, they became more chaotic.
A man on a big gerbil pulled a rope and motioned for the gerbil to run to the left. However, the response of the gerbil as it was under the feeling of desperation was to go to the right. With the difference between the left and right choices, there was a moment of pause as the man and beast continued the contest. Therefore, the outcome was that they turned around and the people at the back where hit by them.
The crowd, that had gathered around the pit, were running and shouting. Among them, there were two people passing through the spaces quickly to move towards the place where Shao Xuan was located, one to his left and one to his right.
The moment the other party stared at Shao Xuan, Shao Xuan felt it, stretching his sharp nerve.
With the precedent of Lei and Tuo's, Shao Xuan naturally couldn't let it repeat, so he decided to go to the city prepared. At this time, he skillefully moved around the chaotic crowd.
The person near Shao Xuan's left took out a small knife that was hidden in his wrist sleeve. When he was ready to take a close little shot, a few big gerbils rushed from his front. He could only stop his movement until the gerbils were gone. When he looked again however, he could not find Shao Xuan's figure. He was going to look around again, when in front of him, a black cold light flashed. He couldn't see what it was, but in that moment, he felt a sense of despair.
Peng—
The soft sound would be impossible to detect in such a noisy environment.
The man tried to lift his hand and touch something strange in his neck, but found that the very action of lifting his hand up was difficult. The blood leaking from his throat was like a reservoir with an open gate.
A cattle riding beasts was still running, and the person directly blocking its front was pushed to a corner with its horns. The slave owner of Red Star City on the back of the cattle had no control over the spatter of blood nor did he look at the flying man as he controlled the cattle and left the chaotic land.
The other person moving towards Shao Xuan's position avoided the gerbil at the time. When he looked again as it went past, he also couldn't find Shao Xuan's figure, but saw his own companion being picked up and thrown by the cattle.
Seeing that the other party failed, as he did not see much, he thought that the other side was really stupid that their target was not killed, and instead, he was thrown by a cow. Looking around for Shao Xuan's figure, he felt a pain in his wrist. Then, there was a sudden appearance of tension, pulling him in a direction. Looking forward, the manic giant bear was coming that way.
When he realized that he would be run over by the giant bear, he was anxious but his wrist was trapped by a tough silk. He tried to cut it off with a stone knife but the tension on his wrist was still increasing, pulling him toward the giant bear sides. He could not even find where the other end of the pull was.
Panicked, frightened, aghast, but his struggle was ineffective. The force binding his wrist just became increasingly tight. Just as he continued cutting, it was too late for him as the bear's paw had already come over.
Boom!
Blood splashed, and the man was sent flying.
For the others, it was just an insignificant man who had been killed under this paw.
When everything subsided, the riots scattered, leaving only a mess. After another day, no one would probably talk about it.
