Chapter 528 - Guess
The rest of the faces paled when they heard Shao Xuan.
“Another one came?” asked Ao.
“Yes.” Shao Xuan nodded, “But they’re gone now.”
After some thought, Shao Xuan said, “It didn’t seem like the one from before.”
Shao Xuan was referring to the aura he felt at the wander’s district not long ago. It felt familiar to that one but was still different.
Zheng Luo and Ao couldn’t feel the presence of that aura but they weren’t going to doubt Shao Xuan.
“What do you mean?”
Gu La didn’t answer directly but said, “You know, we few tribes focused on the desert for the past two years. We know everything that happens there.” With an awkward smile, he continued, “But we didn’t notice the Flaming Horn tribe.”
Gu La was referring to the time the Flaming Horn tribe brought so many people out from the desert. They never found an explanation for that.
After looking at Shao Xuan he noticed that the Grand Elder didn’t want to explain anything so he continued after a cough, “Actually after you left the desert, another group of people left soon after. The people from Rock Hill City. We thought the Desert King sent out people to hunt the slave masters that ran away because they were headed in this direction.”
“But, up until now, I haven’t seen anyone from Rock Hill City,” said Shao Xuan.
“Of course you haven’t. They went in from the other side of the Fearsome Beast Forest, not from your tribe.”
The Fearsome Beast Forest covered a large area. Flaming Horn tribe was only a small part of its border. It would be possible for people to enter the forest without the Flaming Horn tribespeople noticing. Ever since they returned to the out haunt, they had only been on one long-distance hunting expedition. They spent most of their time in nearby areas,
If they didn’t go into the forest, they naturally wouldn’t know what happened in the forest.
“You mean the Rock Hill people were aiming for the forest?” asked Shao Xuan. They weren’t after Wanshi or Flaming Horn but the forest?
“It seemed that they were looking for something, We don’t know what that thing is. When you brought back a new discovery, some thought that you found one fo their secrets,” said Gu La with a bitter smile. In the end, they were disappointed by the news of the new vegetable.
Shao Xuan thought hard, what would make the Shi family send out people to this far away forest?
Gu La’s words hinted at many things but most importantly, these people’s targets may not be Flaming Horn but something in the forest.
At the same time, Gu La conveyed that Hui tribe was willing to work with Flaming Horn tribe.
Gu La left soon after he said what he needed to.
Shao Xuan passed on Gu La’s words to the chiefs and shamans for them to prepare for what’s coming.
