Chapter 304
C304 – Traitor’s Message
Posted on November 14, 2018 by AzureOrchid92
Dao Yu. This was a name Shao Xuan had not heard for a long time, but has been deep in his memory.
This name was only one of the few who have been included in the list of the Flaming Horns tribe of the people who had betrayed and murdered the tribe’s wanderers, then fled without traces. Back then, the chief and the Shaman sent out people secretly several times to catch them. They met Dao Yu then, and confessed that he killed innocent people with no forgiveness. However, Dao Yu went missing. Some people even guessed that the traitor has already died. After all, he was just a wanderer.
Shao Xuan did not think that now, he would unexpectedly hear this name again.
“Dao Yu is here?” Shao Xuan’s face was grave.
Next to them, Lei and Tuo also heard the talk about Dao Yu. They remembered the chief and the Shaman’s command, resolutely executed. Hearing this, they also had their own thoughts, thinking about cutting the traitor on the spot.
Seeing Shao Xuan’s group’s reaction, Su Gu’s heart was clear. In order to prevent misunderstandings, he hurriedly denied it. “No, we don’t have people expelled from any tribes in Luoye City. Previously, many of the tribe’s traitors expelled from their tribes would go to our slave owners afterwards. However, later, father and the tribes agreed on a cooperation, and those traitors were handed over to the tribal people, treated as a gift to the tribes.”
Looking at Shao Xuan’s face, Su Gu continued, “However, even if this is so in Luoye City, the other cities are not. There are people who have been abandoned by the tribes that went into the desert cities to become senior slaves of the slaves owners. Although every tribe’s team enter the desert to look for those traitors to kill them, the expected result was very little. After all, the desert is our, the slave oweners’, turf.”
Su Gu meant to tell this to the three people of the Flaming Horns tribe to calm them down, asking them not to be impulsive and chase after to kill the traitor. The traitor should not be killed, but cut off instead.
In front of those slaves, the sand exploded, and a huge figure rushed out from under the sand.
With spines of coarse scales covering its whole body, the creature locked its rounded pupils on those people running in the sand. Standing on top of the hill, it opened its mouth like a python that was about to devour its prey. It opened up to its jaws, its mouth with sharp teeth rapidly slamming on the ground. After the hit, it suddenly turned around.
In the blink of an eye, four slaves, together with the sand on the ground, were shoveled into the jaws of the beast.
“Quicksand Beast! It’s a quicksand beast!” On the side of the oasis, there were slaves screaming aloud.
It was said that the quicksand beast could make quicksand. Its name was taken from it. At the same time, some people called it the Beast King of the desert. Not only were its body huge and have powerful attack, its body was like sand with the same color.
Their skin, blood, bones and so on were all yellow sand colored, especially their horns. The color was similar to gold. The slave owners very much liked to use their bones to make utensils, especially the golden horn. Many large slave owners used it to make crowns.
However, in the desert, the quicksand beast was not common. They appear only for the purpose of predation. Humans were not on its main meal, therefore, many times, a quicksand beast would not take the initiative to hunt people. They probably thought that humans were too small, not enough for them to eat, not wanting to waste their time for such prey. Now, the sand beast in anger was chasing the slaves angrily. It was most likely because the slaves had taken the initiative to provoke it.
“I know! Second eldest brother wanted to hunt a quicksand beast for father’s birthday ceremony!” Su Gu cried.
Indeed, Luoye City’s second young master’s slaves went out to hunt a quicksand beast. Now, it seemed that sending them out to hunt not only resulted to failure, but they themselves were hunted by the sand beast, and now, they also led it to the people in the oasis.
Note: Changed Dou Shou City to Beast City and Baishi to White Rock. I used the former to conform with what I used with Luoye City but decided that Beast City and White Rock City was better.
