Chronicles of Primordial Wars Chapter 296

The person who looked like 14-year-old was not as dark as other slaves. He wore clean clothes, which was decorated with ornaments including bright gems and some bone ornaments. In Fallen Leaves City, people wearing these things must be in high class. For this reason, Shao Xuan and others could recognize that he was one of the slave masters.

The slaves around him called him young master. Shao Xuan thought about the information of the three young masters in the city and the most likely one was the third young master Su Gu, the youngest slave master who had not yet owned a slave and other tribes did not choose to trade with.

However, after all, he was a young master in the city and the slaves had to be respectful.

At this time, the third young master lifted his chin and glanced at the slaves arrogantly. As everyone showed respect to him, he looked satisfied and then looked at the wooden sedan.

After the third young master appeared, the person on the wooden sedan became silent immediately. The attitude of people carrying the sedan changed. So did the person on the sedan.

The person on the sedan snorted again but in a weaker way.

“Go!” said the person on the wooden sedan with anger, throwing a painted pottery wine cup out.

The painted pottery wine cup fell to the ground and immediately shattered.

Looking at the exquisite pottery wine cup, which had extremely complicated pattern, Shao Xuan thought that Xing, who loved pottery, would definitely collect it as treasure. However, it was thrown away by the owner casually in the city. Slave masters simply took what the slaves had made with great efforts as valueless stuff.

After the wooden car disappeared, most the surrounding people also left.

Su Gu eyes swept over Shao Xuan and Tuo as if he was looking at the goods. Maybe he did not know how defensive his eyesight was. However, he may think he was kind and showed a smile to Shao Xuan and Tuo.

Shao Xuan and Tuo wanted to beat him now…

“Which tribe are you from? I haven't seen you in the city before. My name is Su Gu, the third young master of Fallen Leaves City.” asked Su Gu, walking towards them.

"Shao Xuan and Tuo from the Flaming Horn tribe." replied Shao Xuan.

“The Flaming Horn tribe… Since you are strong, your tribe is definitely not weak.” said Su Gu.

"It doesn't depend on me." said Shao Xuan.

“You come here for the first time?”

“Yes.”

“What are you going to do?”

"Nothing."

"…" What did he mean?

After asking a few more questions, Su Gu didn't get what he wanted to know from Shao Xuan. He finally couldn't help but coughed and said, "Well, it's really inconvenient for you tribesmen who come here for the first time if you don't have a token.”

Shao Xuan and Tuo glanced at him and didn't speak.

Without any reply after waiting for a moment, Su Gu continued, "I can get the token for you!” Then he smiled to Shao Xuan and Tuo proudly.

Shao Xuan and Tuo glanced at him again and still didn't speak.

Shao Xuan had told Tuo and Lei the information he got from He She, so Tuo also knew that this young master was the weakest among the three throne competitors and no tribe was willing to trade with him. In the perspective of Tuo, there is no use to trade with such a weak person. However, everything was decided by Shao Xuan here and he would not speak.

As Shao Xuan and Tuo had been silent, Su Gu thought that they didn't understand what he meant, so he said, “You can cooperate with me. It's good for both parties to make a deal.”

“We are poor.” said Shao Xuan.

“It doesn't matter. I am not poor.” said Su Gu, waving his hand.

"We are not familiar with this city." said Shao Xuan.

“It doesn't matter. I am familiar with it.” said Su Gu with a smile.

“Only three people of our tribe came here.” said Shao Xuan again.

“… You three must be extremely powerful.” Su Gu forced a smile. It seemed he was answering Shao Xuan, but it's more likely that he was convincing himself.

Shao Xuan looked at Su Gu again and said, "Thank you very much. As for cooperation, we'll go back and discuss it.”

Only three people of your tribe came here and you had to go back to discuss? Su Gu forced a smile again, “When can I get the reply?"

"Tomorrow." said Shao Xuan.

"Okay."

Although Shao Xuan did not agree, he did not refuse immediately either. Thinking this way, Su Gu was in a better mood.

Seperating from Su Gu, Tuo said, “The third young master seems to be different from other slave masters.” Other slave masters would not be so kind and polite.

“In fact, there is not much difference, but he is forced to act like that.” said Shao Xuan. The third young master didn't own any slave until now and didn't have a deal with any tribe. Without any credit, he couldn't compete with his two brothers and failed to be a throne candidate, but he was just struggling.

Shao Xuan really had to think about whether to cooperate with Su Gu.

Since the Flaming Horn tribe was inferior to other tribes here, the other two young masters may look down upon the three people. It's very difficult for Shao Xuan and the other two to cooperate with them. Even if they succeeded, those two young masters would not take them seriously.

Shao Xuan intended to know more information but other tribes refused to tell them. To cooperate with local people was indeed a good way to get information.

Maybe Su Gu was worthless. But it may not be the truth as he had grown up healthily in such an environment.

When Shao Xuan returned to the house in the tribal area, the camel was chewing hay. These hay was a kind of grass growing in the city, which was as thick as a finger with long hollow rod. It seemed the camel liked it very much.

Starting at the pile of hay, Shao Xuan was thinking about something.

When the camel found that Shao Xuan was staring at the hay, it moved the body and blocked Shao Xuan's view. However, Shao Xuan directly pulled out two from the pile of hay.

"Grunt——"

"Stop grunting. I'll bring some back to you tomorrow.” Recently, because of the lack of water, there were many dead grass in the city.

As Shao Xuan took the camel's hay into the house, Lei and Tuo thought whether Shao Xuan was going to chew it himself.

However, after Shao Xuan entered the house, he just picked up a hay and closed his eyes. After a moment, Shao Xuan began to tie a knot with the hay.

Lei looked at Tuo, as if he was saying what was Ah-Xuan doing.

Tuo shook his head.

Whatever Shao Xuan did, they only had to wait.

After a while, Shao Xuan opened his eyes. Looking at the grass knot in his hand, he could not help but frown.

Noticing Shao Xuan's serious expression, Tuo asked, “Ah-Xuan, what happened?”

"Nothing, I plan to cooperate with Su Gu." said Shao Xuan.

Lei opened his mouth but did not say anything against it. When they left the tribe, the Shaman and the Chief said that the important affairs should be decided by Shao Xuan.

Early the next morning, before Shao Xuan went out, Su Gu came. Although Su Gu did not cooperate with any tribe, he knew about the tribal area in the city and knew where Shao Xuan lived.

Lei and Tuo didn't expect that Su Gu would come to look for them personally and they were surprised.

"What's your reply?" Su Gu asked as he entered the house.

Shao Xuan did not answer him directly, but said, “You'd better avoid water today.”

Water?

It hasn't rained for a long time, why avoid water? Drinking water? You want me die of thirst?

Hearing these words, Su Gu thought that Shao Xuan was telling a joke. Su Gu held back his anger, looked at Shao Xuan with a serious look and asked, “Why do you say that?”

“If you are still willing to cooperate with us tomorrow, let's have a deal.” Shao Xuan ignored the anger on Su Gu's face.

“Alright!” Su Gu clenched his fists and felt that the three people really had no sense to appreciate favors. But he felt something was wrong. When he saw Shao Xuan, he was a little frightened. After thinking about it, he went out.

Therefore, that day, many people saw that the third young master of Fallen Leaves City rushed into the tribal area but came out with a cold face.
