Chapter 448 - Then Fight!
If Ji Fang said so, it meant this place really was unsafe.
Based on Ji Fang’s reminder, Black Bear told Shao Xuan his guess when they arrived at their base.
He feared the Linlu tribe might really attack now. However, other people would not interfere. They would just watch.
“In reality, to the great six aristocratic families here, these are small scuffles. Including the incident where you defeated Lubi, it was just after-dinner gossip to them. It doesn’t concern them at all.” This matter was not important enough for the aristocrats to care.
So what if Shao Xuan hit Lubi? What did that prove? Did that mean the Flaming Horn tribe was more powerful than Linlu? No, it did not. The power of one tribe was not represented by one person. Then again, it didn’t matter if it was Shao Xuan or the prodigy of the Linlu tribe, while other people might take an interest, the more powerful people saw this as child’s play. At this point, none of the aristocrats had shown their faces here.
As for Shao Xuan’s life or death– these people did not care. Instead, they would be happier if he died. Them not taking action did not mean they hoped other people wouldn’t. A Flaming Horn tribesman suffering was a good thing to them.
Shao Xuan and Guang Yi listened to Black Bear’s analysis.
Not just Young Master Jing, many people from the great six families came too.” The other guy nudged.
Looking over, there were several carriages with emblems of aristocrats.
“What day is it? Why are they all up so early?”
“To watch the show,” the guy said mysteriously.
“Show? What show? Someone’s performing here?”
“Tsk, you’re not updated at all!” The other guy said mischievously, “I heard the Lu family had invited them over to watch.”
“The Lu family? The new Lu family of the Linlu tribe?”
“Yep, that’s them.”
The guard wasn’t interested.
“Didn’t they say Lubi from Lu was beaten up? What’s there to watch.”
“It’s hard to say. They could win this time?”
“You’re saying…”
The few guards discussed.
The young masters had already climbed up the city wall and entered the towers on both sides of the city gates.
These young masters were the ones who received the gifts sent out by the Lu family yesterday. There was a letter in the present, inviting them here to watch.
The rest were just here because there was a crowd. Ji Jing, Ji Yuan and the rest had already chosen a good spot in the tower.
Outside the city gates, Yi Shi was dozing off in his carriage. When they approached the gates, he sensed that something was off!
There were usually more carriages here since the roads near the fields were no longer blocked. He was rarely up this early too. However, something was off.
Looking up at the towers next to the gates, he saw many familiar faces. It was too early for this!
“What’s going on?” Yi Shi told his driver to ask the guards.
Initially, the guards did not know much but after gossip spread like wildfire, everyone now knew. Since this was someone from the Yi family, they were in a good mood to answer questions.
The driver returned to tell Yi Shi what the guards said.
“The Lu family? Flaming Horn?” Yi Shi mulled over his words. He knew the young man who visited his farm with Ji Ju was from Flaming Horn. And there were only two people from Flaming horn here!”
“Young Master, should we continue?” asked the driver.
“No, send these things back quickly. I’ll go up and watch with them. Although the Yi family was not involved, as a descendant of the Yi family, he still had the qualifications to go up the tower.
Since Yi Shi had already made the decision, the driver could only obey.
When he arrived at the top of the wall, he realised there were many people here. Other than his own Yi family, there were people from the other five families too. The ones who usually slept like pigs were here, yawning.
Yi Shi could not squeeze into the tower so he could only stand on top of the city wall. It wasn’t actually a bad spot.
