Chapter 642 The Underground People (1/2)

”Brother Xuan, you went out again tonight to hunt?”

Ah Guang and the other were still awake. For some reason they couldn't fall asleep, the anxiousness just didn't leave them. Hence, after they heard Shao Xuan and Luo went out they just stayed out of the ship waiting for them.

”Is this for us to eat? That's great, I was hungry, hehe...”

Halfway through his snickering, as if something got stuck in his throat, he stopped. He stared blankly at the beast Shao Xuan threw over.

The people on night watch also leaned in to look. They immediately saw the bite marks on the beast.

Although the large beast didn't directly bite the smaller one, as it threw it over, it still left a sizable bite mark on it. This bunch of tribesmen were familiar with all sorts of beasts but they were no experts on bite marks so they could only guess.

Kun Tu reached out to check the marks, ”It's a huge one. I wonder why this little guy didn't get injured much.”

”I wonder too.” Tuo let out a long sigh that seemed to squeeze out all his nervousness from his body.

Kun Tu looked to Tuo and pointed to his own lip and asked, ”What happened?”

Tuo lifted his hand to rub his bloody lip, ”Was surprised.”

Right before the beast left, Tuo gritted his teeth to maintain a calm appearance but he did it so hard that blood came gushing out from his gums. It didn’t show because his mouth was shut but as soon as he relaxed, it came flowing out.

As soon as the beast left, all the pores in his skin opened following the muscles in his body relacing. Just in a few breaths, Tuo’s whole body was drenched in sweat.

“That shocked the life out of me,” Tuo explained what he saw to the others. His view wasn’t as clear as Shao Xuan’s but it was still good enough to know the gist of what happened.

“Brother Xuan, what should we do with this?” Ah Guang poked the small beast with his sword.

“Are we eating it?”

“No, leave it for now. I’ll bring it along for the discussion at Gu tribe tomorrow,” said Shao Xuan.

“What are you going to discuss? Don’t they want us to leave as soon as possible?” Duo Li was intrigued by the beautiful pearls the shaman had mentioned but he could still read between the lines to know that the Gu tribe didn’t want them there.

“I also want to know how they got into such a big mess.” Shao Xuan was still in confusion and the Gu tribe didn’t seem to want their help. Maybe they didn’t want others to find out.

The beast Shao Xuan killed didn’t know how to swim but it was obvious that there was a reason the larger beast had moved them here and the Gu tribe had the answer to that question.

The next day, Shao Xuan brought ten people to the Gu tribe while holding the beast he killed last night.

“Is the chief in? I’m looking for him.” Shao Xuan saw the guard at the outskirts of the tribe.

They didn’t expect the Flaming Horn people to show up again but they also didn’t want to cause delays so the guards quickly sent a message and brought the guests to Bo Gu’s house.

The beast Shao Xuan carried caught the attention of many. Although it was just a small beast to the Flaming Tribe members, the people here rarely saw any kind of beasts. In addition to that, Shao Xuan was carrying that three-metre long beast as if he was carrying a shirt.

It seemed that the rumour that the Flaming Horn tribe members are super strong was true!

As Bo Gu noticed the beast Shao Xuan was carrying, he frowned and asked, “I assume you had a good night’s rest? Where did you get this?”

“We just hunted it yesterday.” Shao Xuan said as he threw the beast down right in front of Bo Gu.

The few closer to Bo Gu rushed to the floor to take a closer look at the beast. Their eyes were blank but a frown hung on their faces. It felt that they had something to say to Shao Xuan but weren't sure how to.

Bo Gu closed his eyes to think of a reply then shifted his gaze to Shao Xuan, “It seems that there are more beasts here now, it is best for you to leave soon.”

“We hunt more than we farm,” Shao Xuan looked at the Gu tribe members and saw that they didn’t have anything to say. “Fine. We’ll go soon, since you said so. This is for you.”
