Chronicles of Primordial Wars

C334 – Baishi City

Posted on February 7, 2019 by AzureOrchid92

When Shao Xuan left Luoye City, the camel he had brought from the Rain tribe spontaneously followed suit.

Originally, Shao Xuan also thought that the camel knew that it was not good to stay in the city, hence it wanted to follow him. However, when he exited the city, Shao Xuan saw the camel give a head shake, then uttered an “aang” sound, as if it was saying goodbye. Afterwards, it went to another direction, different from where Shao Xuan was supposed to go.

Shao Xuan stared at the camel’s figure before trotting over. He removed its reins, leaving only a water-filled animal bag hanging around its neck. Shao Xuan has a kettle on him and the stone that Yang Sui gave to him for water, so he left the other water bag to Mud.

After patting Mud’s neck, Shao Xuan said, “Good luck. Don’t be eaten.”

There were also wild camels in the desert, and Shao Xuan had seen them several times when he entered the desert with the travel team. It’s all formed in groups, walking above the ridges.

Above the scorching desert, the images in sight were somewhat distorted.

The camel’s mood seemed to be good. Mud just slightly tilted its head, and called out “Aang”, before facing the wind and sand as it slowly walked away. That pinch of long hairs on its head were fluttering in the wind.

Shao Xuan saw that camel figure disappeared in sight. After a sigh, he looked at the reins in his hand. He put them inside his animal skin bag and pulled on a cloth with the same color as the desert. Then, he quickly moved to the direction of Baishi City.

Baishi was known as Baishi because of the area it was situated at. It has a particularly large number of stones exposed in the desert which were white.

In the desert, few rocks could withstand the uninterrupted blow of the sand. The rocks with their surfaces revealed under such polishing, showed a variety of bizarre shapes.

Shao Xuan understood that when he saw the many white stones scattered in his field of vision. It’s not far from Baishi City. Maybe there were Baishi people out there who patrolled outside, so he had to be careful.

Shao Xuan learned from Su Gu that, after the death of the Baishi king, the young masters returned to Baishi City with their men. They then began to compete for the throne, and the city was now in civil war.

What exactly was the cause of the Baishi king’s death and who killed him?

Ironically, after his death, his sons and daughters did not use much energy to investigate the cause of his death, to find the real culprit. Rather, they started to compete for the seat of the king of the city.

During Shao Xuan’s trip to Baishi, inside the city. A stone house.

Dao Yu’s gray face looked like it had drastically thinned. The exposed skin was not intact and his face was covered with wrinkles and variety of muscle necrosis wounds. In particular, his left arm was wrapped in thick cloth, with a strong herbal flavor. His whole person looked very weak, like he has a serious illness and would soon die.

Suddenly, Dao Yu vomitted out another mouthful of blood. Lying on a wooden bed covered with thick skins, he pulled out a smile and looked at the person in front of him. “Young… Young Master!”

Seeing Dao Yu struggling to get up, the Baishi young master who often looked for Dao Yu to negotiate things hurriedly said, “You do not need to be courteous. Lie down!”

His sight swept over Dao Yu’s creepy face but he did not dare stare for long. The Bashi young master held back his disgust, still maintaining a neutral expression. His face showed worry, seeming to worry about Dao Yu’s injury.

That day, when the Baishi king was killed, the Baishi’s piece of the symbol of the king’s identity was also lost. Dao Yu went to track the murderer. Although he did not get the murderer back, he had retrieved this symbol and had given it to the young master.

No one doubted that Dao Yu could have possibly killed the Baishi king. In their view, Dao Yu wouldn’t get any benefit doing that. Besides, he did not have the ability. With how powerful the Baishi king was, how could he have been killed by a slave? Even seeing Dao Yu now who had chased the culprit and returned looking like a ghost, they would know that he did not only lose the murderer, but was also poisoned.

When Dao Yu handed over the Baishi symbol, the young master was of course happy. With this stone symbol, the throne in the city was within his grasp more than the others.

He then looked at the frail person in the bed. If it was on usual days, this Baishi young master certainly would not take more than a glance. One reason was that Dao Yu now looked too hideous. Moreover, Dao Yu now seemed to have been abandoned. On the first day, he still looked good, but time had passed. The disease was getting heavier that it was better to hide him from others. Most of the Baishi people did not know Dao Yu’s condition.

Among the Baishi king’s three close guards, one died, leaving only Dao Yu and another person. The two respectively supported different young masters. Although they were only slaves, but to this day, they had already known too many secrets. Before getting the throne, even if they were the young masters, there were many people who still have to consider each of them.

Now, Baishi City had still separated the two guards. If the other side knew that Dao Yu’s disease has worsened, they would certainly take the opportunity to act. Therefore, this young master chose to hide Dao Yu’s illness until his death. Still, Dao Yu wanted to be healed at his home and this young master would also be happy to fulfill his wish but, that is, as long as Dao Yu would not go out to see other people.

After enduring to say a few words, the Baishi young master really could not stand looking at Dao Yu’s festering face, as well as the smell here. From Dao Yu’s mouth, he had already learned what he wanted, so he excused himself, saying he had something to deal with and hurriedly left. As he left, he was still thinking: When I won, I will kill this slave!

After the Baishi young master hurriedly left, Dao Yu was left lying weakly on the wooden bed. His eyes looked cold as he scoffed. After moving in a comfortable position while lying on the animal skins, he lifted apart the cloth in his hand to take a parcel.

This arm has been covered with festering injuries and multiple muscle necrosis. You could even see the white bones which was very frightening.

After some labour to free his hands, the sharp pains left Dao Yu shivering all over. However, this did not concern Dao Yu. Instead, his eyes was showing the contrary, full of expectations and uncontrollable excitement.

“I didn’t think that this would be so strong!” Dao Yu looked at the burning in his hand that almost left only the bone in it.

Poison? This is a treasure! A treasure that would make the world crazy! So many people wanted to get it, but it was Dao Yu who got it in his hands!

Just as he was thinking of the stolen treasure, Dao Yu suddenly heard approaching footsteps.

“Who’s there?!”

His sharp eyes swept over, then saw a man in a cloak.

At the sight of this man, the expression on Dao Yu’s face suddenly changed. His eyes lost its sharpness, his festering face changed in a respectful expression. If his face was intact, you could also see its color of reverence.

As if there was no previous weakness, Dao Yu jumped up from the bed, kneeled on one knee and offered a bow.

“It seems that you have succeeded,” the man with the cloak said faintly. This was a female voice, sounding like the water of the spring pool, dripping cooly.

“Yes.” Dao Yu looked up slightly at the person with the cloak. With caution in his words, he continued, “The seed…”

“Take it yourself.” The cloaked person was not concerned with it.

“Master Xie Shao!” Dao Yu’s eyes was full of joy.

“This lord has a few orders for you. If you can take Baishi, Baishi will also belong to you.”

After simply saying a few words, the cloaked person left a packet of herbs and left silently.

Dao Yu carefully held that bag of herbs. He personally cooked and drank it all until even the little dregs were gone. These would allow his injuries to recover more quickly.

After drinking the medicine, he looked out the window at the dark sky. Dao Yu called over two people, whispered a few commands, and then jumped out of the window.
