Chapter 321



On their way to the city, Shao Xuan listened to what the slave was saying.

The slave also couldn’t tell much. After all, in the chaos, the slaves naturally protected their slave owners, and did not care about other people. They won’t ever divert their attention to check Lei and Tuo’s movement.

When Shao Xuan arrived at Beast City, Su Gu had stretched his face with anger, obviously in a very bad mood.

Looking around, Shao Xuan did not see the lizard fighting beast brought this morning, and then connected it to what the slave said that Su Gu had that beast lost in a fight.

Upon seeing Shao Xuan, Su Gu’s complexion slowly returned to normal. Since Shao Xuan was his comrade, Su Gu’s attitude to him was good.

“I don’t know where they went, and nobody found them when I sent someone to look.” Su Gu said. He didn’t want to mention the stuff about his fighting beast losing before the chaos.

After the end of the battle, this side became a mess because of a dipute of a few bystanders. When the chaos ended, the slave owners left with their slaves, but Su Gu could not see Lei and Tuo.

In this territory dominated by slave owners, if the tribal people randomly wander around, they would likely suffer losses. Even if they were not the instigators, it was a very likely thing that they’s still lose. Therefore, during the first day they were in Beast City, Su Gu and Shao Xuan’s group talked about it. Before this, the three had behaved cautiously, but nobody expected that such a thing would happen today.

Su Gu thought that Lei and Tuo went out of the city to go back to the station or to other places in the city to do other work. In his impression, the tribal people’s style was always mysterious. However, seeing Shao Xuan’s reaction, Su Gu knew that those two circumstances were not the case.

After hearing the story, Shao Xuan said, “I did not have them go do other stuff, and I also believe that they will not wander around at random. It must be that something happened or they saw something.”

“Where did they disappear just now?” Shao Xuan asked.

There were traces of the chaos that just occured on the ground. The footprints were messy with many people and animal traces.

“They were not far from me, but when it turned chaotic, they were driven away by the crowd.” Looking back at the chaos then, Su Gu’s complexion changed. When he was angry, he had not thought much about it but now that he’d calmed down, the more he thought that there was something wrong. Then, he looked at Shao Xuan and asked, “What do you think?”

Shao Xuan shook his head, “All were only suspicions.”

When the two went missing, nobody paid attention to the situation during the chaos. Su Gu felt depressed , having some guilt while he faced Shao Xuan. “I’ll send someone to find them.”

“It would be easier to find people if there were a few animals with a keen sense of smell and tamed beasts.” Shao Xuan said.

Listening to Shao Xuan’s words, Su Gu also understood what he wanted to do. Hence, he said a few words to Wu Shi on his side and let him go back to get the requirements of the beasts to be brought over.

Wu Shi did not say much words, rushing back to bring two wolf-like beasts. This kind of beast’s individual combat effectiveness was inferior to others. It was basically one that was not put in the pit. On weekdays, many of them were used to looking for escaped slaves or fighting beasts, or to seek for prey.

Shao Xuan rushed over, and specially brought two clothes used by Lei and Tuo to let the animals get their smell.

After smelling the clothes, the two beasts sniffed at the ground, then ran straight in one direction.

“There!” Su Gu’s spirit rose. “Hurry up!”

At the same time Su Gu thought in his heart: Only Lei and Tuo would leave without permission. If they had to find other people, he will never spare any!

However, Su Gu and Shao Xuan were later disappointed when the two beast stopped after a while.

“Nothing? They can’t look more?” Su Gu looked around. The slave owners were riding all kinds of beasts, with slaves walking back and forth and no one had stayed in this area to ask for useful news.

The useful footprints on the ground had already been trampled by other passersby, so they couldn’t see other clues.

Shao Xuan blew out a whistle to contact them, but no one responded. Until dusk, they didn’t find anyone.

After being out of town, Chacha found many entertainment in the desert but still came to Shao Xuan when he called.

Back to the Luoye City station, Shao Xuan entered the house to see the dried grass that was brought in and put unused in the corner. He picked it up to test, and the softness was still there.

Taking a deep breath, he calmed his mood. Once he had cooled down, Shao Xuan held the end of the grass, mobilize the power in his body, and watched the hands and rope in his mind, immersing in it. He wanted to predict the position of Lei and Tuo in this way.

And so, when he separated from that state, Shao Xuan had a moment of vertigo. Today, he had tried to unlock too many times, consuming a lot of energy, so now, doing rope divination soon after would really make him unusually exhausted.

Putting his head down and letting his consciousness clear, Shao Xuan looked at the knot in his hands, carefully identifying the conclusion of the knot. The more his eyebrows wrinkled tightly, the deeper the hostility that came in his eyes.

Just then, Su Gu came knocking at the door.

Shao Xuan swept the door panel aside, seeing Su Gu standing at the door looking very poor.

Su Gu walked into the room but did not let the slaves follow. He looked at Shao Xuan and asked, “Do you have any speculation about Lei and Tuo?”

“Baishi City!” Shao Xuan said simply.

Su Gu was surprised. He didn’t think that Shao Xuan would unexpectedly guess it. However, as he thought of Shao Xuan’s uncanny predictive ability, he felt relieved.

Su Gu passed a piece of cloth to Shao Xuan, as he spoke. “Take a look at this. Someone just sent it over.”

The piece of cloth was similar to the one worn by Shao Xuan. It was obviously cut off from Lei and Tuo’s clothes. There were words written on top of it, and it was only four words—Meet at the Colosseum.

Scratching his head, Su Gu did not know what to say. As he thought about it, he was afraid that Shao Xuan would impulsely go directly to the Baishi station so he advised, “You shouldn’t go to Baishi Station. You might not be able to go back.”

“You rest assured, I know.” Shao Xuan said. He put the cloth on the side, and said, “I’ll keep this piece of cloth.”

“Ok.” This time, Su Gu had no other opinion.

After saying a few more words, Su Gu then left.

Shao Xuan thought for the whole night alone in his room. He wasn’t even a little sleepy, thinking of the real intentions of the other side to grab Lei and Tuo.

The next day, Su Gu did not enter Beast City as he was not in the mood. Knowing that the scorpion came from the Baishi people, he also sighed with anger. With the two fighting beasts he had enslaved, only one was left which was the scorpion beast. He spent the whole day in the animal pen, staring at the slaves feeding the scorpion, and also inquired about some of the herbs that were said to enhance its combat effectiveness. Although it may be true or false, he still made some and had someone catch a few small desert beasts to do experiments.

Shao Xuan did not go out, except to call back Chacha to not let it run around in the mean time, or also go to the Baishi station site.

Su Gu thought that the Baishi people did that because of the grievances between slave owners and tribes. In his heart, he was really glad that Shao Xuan didn’t go out that day.

Meanwhile, Shao Xuan was thinking some more about the thing which has garnered the other city’s enmity. Perhaps, Dao Yu was one of the reasons, but he didn’t know which role Dao Yu played in this.

Dao Yu…

Shao Xuan put his hand on his waist.

Su Gu said that if Shao Xuan went over to the Baishi station, there might be a chance that he couldn’t return. Shao Xuan also knew that his strength couldn’t take care of everyone in Baishi. Not to mention, the other side had sent that cloth telling him to meet them, so they certainly took precautions.

After thinking for a night, he couldn’t think of a way to deal with it. Shao Xuan was still sitting in his room, continuing to think. Since the other side said “Meet at the Colosseum”, was it necessary to let him fight a beast? If so, until then, would both sides not do anything life-threatening to each other for the time being and deal with it at the Colosseum in the center of Beast City… How else can they fight?

As he was thinking, Shao Xuan heard something. He looked at the ground and saw the blue beetle at his foot.

Shao Xuan stared at the beetle at his foot thoughtfully.

As usual, the beetle did not wait for a long time for Shao Xuan’s reaction. When it was about to leave, Shao Xuan made a noise.

“Come back.”

The beetle, who walked a few steps towards the hole, turned and climbed back.

Shao Xuan leaned over and stretched out his hand towards the beetle. He had thought to try to unlock the beetle later, but now that something happened to Lei and Tuo, Shao Xuan changed his mind. He intended to relieve the beetle of the first lock.

Seeing Shao Xuan’s hands out with the blue flame, the beetle seemed to know Shao Xuan intentions. It obediently stayed in the same place. He did not know if it was too excited, but its two hind legs were on the ground, gently pushing the ball as was its long time habit, especially now that it was excited.
