C332 – Changes
Posted on January 31, 2019 by AzureOrchid92
The effect caused by the fighting beasts was more intense than Shao Xuan expected.
One thing was that Shao Xuan underestimated Sapphire’s ability, and another was the time.
When the moon was full, it was the most vulnerable time for the beasts, causing them to riot.
However, the slave owners just liked the beasts’ rage as they fought each other. For them, only in such a situation was it fierce enough and entertaining.
They never knew that after all this time, there would be a fighting beasts riot. When they went to Beast City again, will there be a psychological shadow on them?
Shao Xuan stood on a high sand ridge, looking at the distant Luoye City station, as well as the Beast City further afield.
This night, Lei and Tuo had a rare good sleep. During the time they were caught, they have been on guard, nervous, tense, and always alert. But now, there were Shao Xuan and Chacha with them so they were finally relaxed. If they slept well, they could recover quickly.
After midnight, Shao Xuan saw that a bird flew into the Luoye City station. Then, not long after, a small team rushed to the city station. Seeing their almost silent but fast run, Shao Xuan guessed that these people were the people the Luoye king sent out to explore for news.
There must have been something that made these people rush back in such a hurry.
The next day, Shao Xuan went out alone to find Su Gu. He did not take Lei and Tuo, and had the two find a place to rest first so they could recover faster. He had to determine first whether there was someone hunting them, Dao Yu, in particular, who saw Shao Xuan in the Colosseum showing his hand. Even if other people did not care, Dao Yu would certainly have an idea.
It’s always good to be careful when such a storm was likely to lead to a more intense one.
It’s just that Shao Xuan didn’t expect that what he’d learn from Su Gu was a more surprising news.
“The Baishi king is dead?!”
“Well, someone came to report it last night, and my father asked me to come over. He did not let me leave the station, and told me that we will get out of here as soon as possible.” Su Gu looked a little tired. He was also curious as to why Shao Xuan could make a fire for slavery. However, in such a big situation, an issue about the tribes was less important. Moreover, Su Gu still needed the help of Shao Xuan, so naturally he could not push him too tightly.
Shao Xuan pondered Su Gu’s words just now.
The Baishi king, the King of a city, was killed? Yesterday, he was still raging at the Colosseum. How come when he went back, he was killed?
“Do you know who killed him?” Shao Xuan asked.
Su Gu shook his head. “I don’t know.”
“How about Dao Yu?” Shao Xuan asked again.
“I don’t know. But I heard that among the Baishi king’s three close guards, one was dead.” After a pause, Su Gu spoke again. “It seems that the dead one is not Dao Yu.”
After the Colosseum riot, it was the king of a city who was killed, hence this battle of the beasts was doomed not to be continued.
Before hearing the news, the Snowfield King was still yelling for his people to investigate why the fighting beasts rioted. Now that a king of a city was killed, in the afternoon, when another news came, the Snowfield King left with his people.
The words of the Snowfield King was: “This king has an emergency. Who cares who is in charge. Anyway, this king doesn’t care!”
“What the hell is going on that can make the Snowfield king so anxious?” Shao Xuan wondered.
“I heard that on the other side of Snowfield City, something extremely important seems to have been lost.” Su Gu said.
“What could be that important?” Shao Xuan asked.

“I don’t know what it is and I’m still inquiring about it. It is said, however, that it may have something to do with your tribe.” Su Gu replied.
Shao Xuan’s eyelids twitched. What were the secret purpose of people from the other tribes? His previous guess was to look for metal ores. Have they already succeeded?
The Yu tribe and the Tianshan tribe, who had returned with them that day, had left last night. They didn’t remain to give greetings to the people of Luoye City, so even if he wanted to ask, he couldn’t find these people.
“If it really has something to do with the tribes, then you have to avoid it early. We from Luoye City, have taken in a lot of the tribes people.” Su Gu said.
Things were as Su Gu had said. In the afternoon near dusk, the Luoye king gathered his men and beasts, then left together with everyone, not staying for long in the station here.
Originally, Shao Xuan wanted to let Chacha leave first with Lei and Tuo, but Su Gu offered to let Lei and Tuo also travel with him. The two days before and after the full moon, the desert was very dangerous, so being extra careful was for the best.
Shao Xuan agreed after thinking about it.
The day they left the Beast Desert, the Luoye king saw the three of them but didn’t say a word.
As for Baishi City, after their king was killed, Baishi’s young masters and their small slave owners left with the slaves. It was too dangerous, so they went back to their city first before fighting for the throne.
Not only the Baishi and Luoye City, the people of several other cities have also left one after another, seemingly aware of the coming storm and were travelling in a hurry.
Several people in the city left, leaving only the original guard of the Beast City. The guards of the three cities were already on guard against each other.
A guard from Snowfield City who had stayed here went out that night to relieve himself. The desert at night shone brightly because of the moon in the sky.
The guard went to the side of a beast pit. There were a lot of corpses piled up in the pit, most of them were the losers of the last two days of fighting. If it was like the past, they would have been given to the slaves to eat, but now they have all withdrawn, too many corpses left behind were still in the pit. After another ten days, only the bones would be left. There were scavengers and other bugs around here that would feed on the carcasses.
Yawning, the guard looked around and did not find anyone else in the city except for his companion not far from him, which reassured him so much when he intended to pee here.
As he was about to pee, he suddenly heard some low noises. He hurriedly looked around but did not find any other abnormalities. Then, he listened carefully, and found that those voices were coming from under the pit.
Was there a fighting beast alive in the pit when they thought it had died?
Thinking of the riots in the Colosseum, the guard swallowed hard. Holding the hilt of his weapon in his hand, he stretched his neck to look down. Then, he saw some black beetles drilling out of the beast pit, one after another. Soon, they wrapped up the corpses stacked on top of them.
The situation continued until the guard found that the corpses in the pit were rapidly thinning down. The original strong muscles became withered with visible speed under his naked eye.
Even if he had seen scavengers in the desert quickly destroying corpses, it was often caused by the combined action of many birds and other animals of all sizes. However, now in this pit, there was only one kind of beetle which nibbled wildly. The black armor on their backs reflected the cold, white light of the moon.
He had guarded the Beast City for so many years but he had never seen such a scene. According to his experience from previous years, such a large number of corpses would usually take about ten days to be finished. But looking at the situation at this time, he could see that it would not take ten days. He didn’t even have to wait for tomorrow when the sun came out before these corpses would be wiped out, with only hard bones and thick scales left after.
There was a cold sweat dripping on the guard’s back as he stood outside the pit. It felt like his scalp was frozen. He shouted, running to his companion’s side and saying what was happening in the pit.
“Bugs? You mean those little beetles, didn’t you?” The other guard was skeptical.
“Really, really! If you don’t believe me, see it for yourself!”
The other guard still doubted it, intending to just march up to see. They were really scared by the recent events and would not dare run around with only one or two alone.
However, by the time they marched up to take a look, there were no more black beetles in the pit. There were no traces to be seen. However, since the corpses had obvious traces of being gnawed, they had dried up a lot.
“How… Why is it all gone? It was there just now!” The guard paced along the pit side, looking but did not find one.
Meanwhile, beneath the sand, a group of beetles who had just nibbled on the corpses had left, following a blue beetle as went out of Beast City.
The next day, when the sun rose, there were only a handful of seemingly harmless beetles in Beast City that were still rolling dung balls. Most of them were gone.
Sorry, guys. I was laz– *cough* I mean, busy these days.
