Chapter 393 (1/2)

Rules of Trading

Because of the barrier made by his men and several slaves, the Anba City young slave master, sitting there with a haughty posture, did not suffer any injuries caused by the shock. However, the loud sound it made hurt his ears.

An Ping frowned as he took a peek at the person in front of them. He continued to frown as he stared at the man just standing there, then looked at the other’s totem patterns. It seemed that he had seen it before but, at that moment, couldn’t remember where.

Anyway, he was in a bad mood today. He was having the worst luck since early in the morning when he went to inspect something he had ordered. It was something he had booked long ago and he planned to take back. Who knew that they made a mistake with his order. In a fit of rage, he let a few of the slaves with him go, carrying the cauldron with them. Besides, he could just get a few more and he had many more at home. And why should he have outsiders cast him a cauldron when he could do it at home? What’s more, it’s cheaper to make it himself.

However, as he left the blacksmith, An Ping heard some people say that there was a free trade area on this side of the city. He then brought people over, thinking that he could exchange the scrap he had for their treasures. Not only could he deal with this failure, but he could also show the people his generosity. If the other party would not give him face, he would just force them. Who expected that this was going to happen!

What did the people around say this tribe was, the Flaming Horn tribe? The name was a little familiar.

When he caught the other’s eyes, this young master actually felt a sense of fear! To save face, he averted his eyes, but appeared extraordinarily stiff as he just turned his neck.

Shao Xuan, who was sitting at first, had to stand up because of the thing coming at him. After he blocked, his hand laid still at the cauldron’s body, his feet separated, his two knees bent and his body slightly squatting. Him standing steadily like this gave people the feeling that a sleeping beast had just opened its eyes after being provoked. Savage as a beast, this was what the people of Anba City thought of the tribal people living in the remote lands. The Flaming Horns tribe in front of them also gave that same feeling.

In the eyes of the Anba City young master, this “savage beast” had let out such strong power in the moment of it waking up. This was not what an ordinary “savage beast” usually did. This was more like the rampage of a fierce beast. He felt like he was in the presence of one. Even if the feeling was dull, it could not be ignored.

Tricky. This was what the young master thought at that moment.

“Who is that man?”

“Are all the young people in the Flaming Horn tribe this good?”

“Hey, look at the face of that Anba City master. Do you think they’ll fight?”

“It’s good if that happened. We can take the opportunity to pick up some goods cheaply. I heard that the people of the Flaming Horn tribe have got a lot of good things these days.”

Although many of the people there had these thoughts, they also knew to keep their voice down or keep it to themselves. It was just their eyes staring at the movement on the field, waiting for the opportunity to take advantage of afterwards.

An Ping’s eyelids slightly twitched. For a moment, he really couldn’t think of what to say.

With their young master still not moving, one immediately seized the opportunity to come forward, wanting to kiss ass in front of his master. Stepping forward, he pointed at Shao Xuan and the rest of the tribe, raising his chin and saying, “You. Do you want to be an enemy of Anba City, one of the Great Six?”

Because it once belonged to one of the six strongest tribes, even if it later merged, they were still technically Anba tribesmen. Until this day, the people of Anba City still liked to call themselves one of the great six, in order to show their dominance and satisfy their vanity.

Unfortunately, to the Flaming Horn tribesmen, whether you were from the great six or seven or eight, if you tried to fight us, don’t blame us for fighting back!

Shao Xuan calmly looked at the other party. “I heard you Anba people like Ding cauldrons. We wouldn’t want to take something you love so much so I’m returning this to you!”

What was clearly an ordinary hand looked so small compared to the huge body of the cauldron. However, before the crowd could contemplate that scene, he might as well be larger than the cauldron from the power he exuded.

Bang!

As the hand retracted, the cauldron shot out together with the ringing sound of the metal. The heavy, high-pitched sound seemed like it was going to exterminate everything in its path. Once again, it rang throughout the free space of the trading area.

Reflecting the sun’s golden light, the cauldron’s body careened straight towards a person who then jumped out of the way.

But the metal was flying too fast, so much so that the man who jumped out just now did not manage to escape. It collided with him. His skin burst out with bruises, a few cuts showing. The blood flowed from the wounds, while the sound of his arms and sternum breaking had been completely suppressed by the sound the cauldron was making. The people around only saw that the person sprayed out blood and flew out by the force. His body slid along as he fell to the ground.

The cauldron also fell on the ground because of its three uneven feet. It could not remain steady. After stopping and bumping several times, it then skidded to a stop. At this time, the defects of the cauldron’s body were completely exposed.

Black Bear looked at the fallen scrap of metal, his eyes filled with contempt. This kind of goods was something they all disdained to see. As for the idiot who took out this thing and tried to force a deal, he deserved to be punched in the face.

Not only Black Bear, even if most of the people who decided to not speak up, they also secretly felt that this face should be hit well. Who would think that the tribal people were dumb enough to take a defect?

Although those watching the scene at some distance at the back wanted to stay away from the battlefield, they still did not walk away. Watching the buzz was not too big a deal. For most of the tribesmen here, these Anba City slave masters with the An surname usually had to be given face, but they would not really fear them. Naturally, they were willing to see the Flaming Horn tribe fight with a young master. This matter didn’t involve them personally anyway.

On the other hand, seeing his subordinate on the ground, An Ping’s face contorted.

It’s a provocation! It’s a provocation to the authority of Anba City!

Not able to sit still anymore, An Ping suddenly got up and waved a hand. “Give them a fight!” He paused, then added, “Get those glowing stones back for me!”
