From the sea?
This was unimaginable to Shao Xuan, unless the slave owners were mermaids. But this seemed impossible, as they had been living in the desert for so many years. How could they have had a marine life? Even evolution has to be a process.
After hearing the blind old slave’s answer, Shao Xuan’s first reaction was to believe it. Then, his next reaction was not to believe it!
However, the other side had a serious expression, which made Shao Xuan feel helpless.
“What do you mean, from the sea?” Shao Xuan asked.
The blind old slave shook his head, “I’m not quite sure, but I have heard some of the older people say that the slave owners are from over there.”
Shao Xuan was still in doubt about this. After some thought, he asked for a map of the desert from the old slave. The map Su Gu had handed to Shao Xuan was not comprehensive. Shao Xuan hoped to be able to see a more complete picture of the area. After all, this place was one of the three major cities. Won’t they have a complete map?
Unfortunately, the old slave did not know much about maps. In his early years, his eyes had already been blind. A lot of the things he knew were remembered by listening to others, hence, pictures and such would be very difficult for him.
There was a tree there. On a branch hung an oval thing that was not much larger than his fist. At this point, the oval thing on the branch was stretching out, rolling out until its body elongated and its shrinked wings unfolded. Its nose, which had unrolled, was almost as long as the rest of its body, unfolding, lengthening, then pointing directly to the direction where Shao Xuan was located.
Bi Luo!
Shao Xuan thought of the creature that the blind old slave had said.
“You should avoid being stared at. If they are staring, you can rarely escape once you are targeted by them.” This was the old slave’s assessment of the Bi Luo.
Even though going through a dark passage was bad, Shao Xuan did not waste time and moved his legs to run.
He wanted to kill the Bi Luo first, but he had noticed that there were other similar stares around him, suggesting that there was not a shortage of hidden Bi Luos in the vicinity. They had locked their attention on him!
The Bi Luos in the palace were not all near the king’s rooms. Some of them looked for a place to sleep with less people and was quiet. Earlier, they had been feeling peaceful until they met Shao Xuan, which they recognized as someone not from the city.
Eeek—
A sharp, whistle-like sound emitted from the long nose of the Bi Luo.
It was like a signal and soon, the other Bi Luos around him were also making noises, flying in the direction Shao Xuan was fleeing.
The guards around the area heard the sounds. They all went to the place where the Bi Luo was, shouting, “There’s an invasion!”
But Shao Xuan’s speed was also fast. He already knew where the nearest door was and went straight to that side.
There were no other slave owners living around here. Just the several beasts raised by the king and the young masters were kept around.
At this time, a Snowfield young master was watching the slaves to help him train a beast. He heard someone was invading, which seemed to be only one person. Immediately, his blood boiled, thinking of the meritorious opportunity!
“Go! Go get the intruder!”
The other slaves followed the order with bitterness in their hearts. To catch the intruder was the guards’ job. Why should you, a young master, mix in! But their master ordered, so these slaves could not stand idly by, and could only bite their teeth and follow him.
Shao Xuan was like a sharp knife, splitting the encirclement in front of him. While still listening to the movements behind him, he had glimpsed a large stone nearly the same height as a person, with an engraving of the words “Beast Garden” above.
Shao Xuan didn’t care if it was a beast garden or a human garden. His hands just picked up that almost a person high stone, turned and threw it out!
Since the young master was chasing with his beast, some of the guards did not dare to lean too close for fear of being mistakenly injured by the beast. The rampaging beast roared, seeming to want to flatten everything. However, before it could act out, a stone came flying towards its head. Its nose was smashed, suddenly giving it a nosebleed. Its footsteps became a bit staggered, until it stumbled at something under its feet. Its two front legs heavily knelt down, its front body continued to rush down until it hit a row of structures.
Bang Bang!
The structures here were not the fortified walls of the Colosseum. In an instant, it fell under the fierce collision of the beast.
The other slaves who saw this scene had their eyes alight full of disbelief. Unexpectedly… The intruder could just lift up such a big stone and throw it as a ball!
Although there was no shortage of strong men among the slaves, it was not this exaggerated. Compared to this person, they were still short of lifting a stone to throw at the beast just now.
The young slave master, who had fallen from atop the beast, also did not bother with his wounds, shouting, “Tie that man to me. I want him to be my slave.”
There were many arrows and spears flying around, but with the speed of Shao Xuan, coupled with the chaos that had just been made, it was not enough. When the guards of the other palaces had come, he was already near the back door of the palace.
