Chronicles of Primordial Wars

After fleeing Snowfield City, Shao Xuan recalled the maps he had seen in the stone room. He had no intention of going to any of the cities in the desert. Now, no city was peaceful. Besides, the slave owners never had a good attitude towards the tribemen, even Su Lun has another purpose with his cooperation.

Therefore, the route Shao Xuan was now taking was not in contact with any of the cities under the control of a slave owner. As far as possible, he wanted to get away from those troubles.

Originally, Shao Xuan also wanted to go to the seaside to take a look. The plan of this route would lead to the nearest sea to Snowfield City. However, Shao Xuan had noticed those who were chasing behind him, so he could only put down his other thoughts and flee again.

There were 200 Jinjiawei. If Shao Xuan wanted to deal with them, he could break them up, but this group was the Jinjiawei who almost do not act separately. They probably know their own shortcomings. The Jinjiawei acted completely as a whole, which meant Shao Xuan could not find an opportunity to attack.

Moreover, Shao Xuan could feel that those Jinjiawei were like dead people, seemingly unafraid to keep chasing until the completion of their task.

If there was a way to deal with those Bi Luos too, Shao Xuan would not have these pursuers chasing him. However, those Bi Luos were very clever, never far away from the Jinjiawei. After a discovery of abnormalities, they would hide within the Jinjiawei team.

It’s difficult, really difficult.

Since entering the desert, this was the first time Shao Xuan was being hunted, which was embarrassing. He fled fast, but those Bi Luos were always able to find him accurately. No matter how he used his clothes as a dummy and applied other smells to his body, he could not shake off the Bi Luos.

No wonder the blind old slave had said: Once he was targeted by the Bi Luo, it would be hard to escape.

He couldn’t think of any good way to escape at the moment. Shao Xuan could only use his speed as an advantage to ease his dilemma.

He thought of taking this group to other cities, and let them kill each other. Then, before Shao Xuan could wait for a chance to lead these people there, he met two teams from Shaqi City and Skywheel City, fighting. Contrary to Shao Xuan’s expectations though, when the three teams met, they did not continue the fight each other, but grouped up together to catch Shao Xuan.

This gave Shao Xuan even more of a headache.

The two teams changed their goal and followed the Jinjiawei. They felt that, since Snowfield City had sent the Jinjiawei to hunt down a man, that man must have been special.

What was special about him? Was it because he stole something good from Snowfield City?

Everyone wanted to make a profit. The people of Shaqi City and Skywheel City also did not want to fight with each other, thinking that catching the person in front who might have taken a treasure, then going back to their city afterwards to give it to their king would render more benefits.

With a glimpse of his chasers, Shao Xuan did not expect to have them fight now. His mind was only thinking of figuring out how to get out of this trouble.

He had long since left the area under the jurisdiction of Snowfield City. Without the snow, the surrounding desert was under high temperatures.

Shao Xuan stepped on the scorching, hot sand under his feet and went under the shadows on the back of the sand dunes for a little rest. There was not much time he could use for rest.

Sha sha sha!

A large chunk of sand on the dunes slid.

Shao Xuan looked in that direction, while hiding his presence well even if he had not seen any big movements at that time. Shao Xuan could not be aware of every beast in the desert every time, as some beasts were hidden under the sand. When they had hidden very well, even Shao Xuan who had been fleeing had almost stepped on the snake and scorpion bodies that were buried under the sand.

The difference was that at this moment, it was not a small beast that had crawled out of the dunes. It was a behemoth.

When Shao Xuan had seen the movement, he had already retreated earlier to avoid it.

Pu—

The beast snorted and two sand arrows ejected from its nostrils, piercing into the sand not far away from Shao Xuan.

Looking at the figure that came out, Shao Xuan had a sense of familiarity.

The beast, after coming out of the sand dune after a sleep, became aware of someone nearby. It immediately became disgruntled, letting out a scream, making the wind and sand rush out. However, when it saw Shao Xuan’s appearance, its roar stopped.

The horned lizard beast caught half roar: “…”

Shao Xuan: “…”

If he was not in a difficult situation right now, Shao Xuan really wanted to say hello to this one: Yo, long time no see.

This beast was the horned lizard beast that he had encountered at the Colosseum. However, it had no red marks around its eyes this time, which was probably washed away by the sand.

At the beginning of the chaos in Beast City, a lot of unowned monsters ran, including this one, out of the Colosseum. Shao Xuan previously had a confrontation with the horned lizard beast, but he did not expect to meet it here.

Shao Xuan was also worried about the horned lizard beast’s revenge, hence he wanted to avoid an encounter. However, the horned lizard beast was actually more worried than Shao Xuan. At that time in the Colosseum, that feeling of fear was still clear in its mind. It had not mainly looked at the other’s appearance, but also the breath and power fluctuating around him.

One man and one beast were in a deadlock, guarding against each other, until a blue beetle drilled out of the ground. This caused the heavy atmosphere at the moment to break.

The horned lizard turned and took the chance to ran away. This made Shao Xuan breath a sigh of relief, then he focused his attention on Sapphire.

At the start of its successful enslavement, this beetle was just pushing dung balls, but now, even with his back armor as bright as a gem, it could move stealthily better than Shao Xuan. He did not know what it had encountered under the sand, but its back armor has a deep concave. If it went a little deeper, there would be a danger to its life. Even if its injury was not life-threatening for the time being, it was still a heavy injury for the beetle. Its wings were damaged and it was no longer able to fly.

Although most of the time, it was active on the ground or under the sand, in the event of a critical situation, it could also fly to avoid disaster. Now though, if the beetle once again encountered a desert beast, regardless of how big or even just slightly fierce, it could also pose a great threat to it.

Shao Xuan also knew that Sapphire was with a lot of beetles. However, the other beetles couldn’t keep up with it and fell far behind.

Shao Xuan did not know the scale of Sapphire’s insect army, but he can be sure that, based on the size he had seen the previous time, they would still be unable to block 200 Jinjiawei. With the addition of the two other cities, there was no hope.

After carefully looking at Sapphire’s injury, Shao Xuan did not know what to do. If it was a wolf or a lion or other animals, he had knowledge of its treatment. However, the bug’s injury was unfamiliar to him.

“What are we going to do with this injury?” Shao Xuan looked at the wound on the Sapphire’s back and sighed.

Sapphire crawled on the ground and climbed next to Shao Xuan, but it do not know how to express its thoughts. It could only go around Shao Xuan in a circle.

Fortunately, Shao Xuan could understand a little bit of what’s on its mind.

“Unlock you again?” Shao Xuan was not so reassured. How long was it that its second lock was unraveled? Unlocking the third lock now, could it handle it? If it couldn’t control the power in its body, it would die.

But looking at Sapphire’s injury, then looking at its careful and ardent actions, Shao Xuan still decided to grant its wish.

If the third lock was unlocked, the injury on its body might be healed. It should be worth it for such an injury…

Same as when Caesar was seriously injured, Shao Xuan had engraved its seal. Perhaps unlocking had the same effect.

It was just that it’s too risky. A single carelessness, and it could lead to failure.

Soon, the blue flame came out of his hand. Shao Xuan concentrated as much as possible, controlling his power to unlock.

Looking at the excitedly pedalling blue beetle, Shao Xuan thought to himself: I can only wish you good luck.
