Chapter 387 (2/2)

“About that,” Zheng Luo thought for a moment. “I heard they don’t like spots anymore.”

Duo Kang went stiff, his grin hardened. “Why do they change their mind every year?!”

Zheng Luo ignored Duo Kang’s frustration and turned to Shao Xuan. “Shao Xuan, you ‘ve only just gotten here so you don’t have much to sell. But you can go and check the trades out, you can help them.”

Zheng Luo wanted Shao Xuan to familiarize himself with the situation but was worried Shao Xuan had nothing to sell. He might not feel good if all he did was watch other people sell their things happily.

“Don’t worry, I understand,” Shao Xuan said with a smile.

Duo Kang and Guang Yi looked at him without a word.

After the meeting, the chief ate a feast with everyone, celebrating with the meat from the bone beast distributed by Shao Xuan.

While there were not many spices in the area, the tribe was smart in using leaves and fruits as condiments. It was delicious.

“I haven’t had this in years! It still tastes amazing!” cried an older member, smacking his lips.

Another started talking about the year they hunted another bone beast, even telling Shao Xuan about the uses of different parts of the animal.

It was only until sunset when the sky darkened, Shao Xuan returned.

However, he realised there were many people surrounding his house.

“What’s the matter?” he asked.

“Ah, Shao Xuan, you’re back!” Duo Li cried excitedly, squeezing through the crowd. “Elder Shao Xuan, what’s the thing in your house?”

Although the door wasn’t locked, no one dared enter. The windows were open too, and they could have reached inside to take the glowing object. But they would not do such a thing. They weren’t close to Shao Xuan, plus he was the Elder! Who would dare take something from his house without his permission?!

The crowd could only suppress their curiosity as they stared at the glowing rock. Now that he was back, they grew excited again.

“In my house?” Shao Xuan didn’t understand, but when he looked up, he understood. Although there were many people, he could still see the light.

The Water Moon Stone?!

No, it’s not the same. It’s not the usual cold glow, the light from this stone felt warmer.

The rest of the people quickly opened up a path so Shao Xuan could open his door. He entered and picked up the crystal.

Even Shao Xuan was confused. It didn’t look like that before he left. Why didn’t it glow just now? Why is it so bright now? It was as bright as the WAter Moon Stone now.

Then, he looked at the other two rocks. They were still ordinary rocks.

When he looked at the craning necks and excited gazes, Shao Xuan passed the crystal to them.

No one dared touch it when Shao Xuan was holding it but when Duo Li took it, everyone started fighting. Especially the ones who were close to Duo Li.

It wasn’t appropriate to fight like that in front of Shao Xuan’s house… Duo Li quickly explained to Shao Xuan and with his consent, took the rock to an open area, at the same time leading the crowd away.

When the crowd left, it was much quieter.
