Chronicles of Primordial Wars

C335 – Underground Palace

Posted on February 12, 2019 by AzureOrchid92

In the Baishi desert area, Shao Xuan met two people who were patrolling outside. However, looking at their absent-minded appearance, he thought of how the situation was in Baishi City now. According to the information Shao Xuan learned, in the past, Baishi’s outside patrol should be far more stricter than now. The patrol should not be so withered, especially in the state of the city today.

However, it could also be understood.

For the slaves, Baishi was now in a very critical time. The death of the king of slave owners meant that their greatest master was gone. Who will take over, who is about to become their next master. Everything was not fixed and the future developments were also full of worries.

Easily dodging these absent-minded guards, Shao Xuan also paid attention to some of the surrounding creatures, such as birds, small animals and so on. Maybe the Baishi City people has another eye. Perhaps someone had enslaved the insects? He had to be careful.

Afterwards, he went to a big rock. The rock looked like a mushroom with a large umbrella top above it. This was because, when a sandstorm came, the large particles of sand scraped closer to the ground, slowly grinding the rock close to the ground, so that it formed what it was now.

Hiding under this, Shao Xuan temporarily did not have to worry about being found by the birds above. As it approached night time, there was no people patrolling around, so he went ahead, close to Baishi City. Shao Xuan planned to rest first before entering the city.

After drinking a little water, he had restored a little of his strength. Then, Shao Xuan began to ponder his plan to mix into Baishi City. As he was thinking, his brows frowned. He had suddenly thought that in case he had successfully mixed into Baishi, what if Dao Yu was not inside the city? What was he going to do?

After thinking about it, Shao Xuan cut the reins he had taken off the camel. He intended to use this rope to check the position of Dao Yu. However, he didn’t know if he could succeed.

The divination finished. Shao Xuan opened his eyes and looked at the knot in his hands. He read out the conclusion and checked around according to the result. His fingers drew a picture on the ground, and finally determined the direction shown. However, this direction was not going to Baishi City.

Anyway, Shao Xuan was just going to go over and have a look.

Fortunately, he had checked this before mixing in Baishi, otherwise, it would be a real waste of time.

After changing his direction, Shao Xuan quickly went towards the position shown in the divination. Without the help of Chacha, Shao Xuan’s pace in the desert has slowed down, but it has not been too slow.

Walking more, Shao Xuan discovered that he had come out of the Baishi desert. At such a critical time in Baishi City, Dao Yu was not in the city. What was he doing, running away?

Shao Xuan continued to move in that direction and only took a short break at night. Then, he continued to search until he came to a place.

It looked no different from the rest of the desert, having all those high and low sand dunes. Even if it was a relatively flat place, it also looked like the wind had blown over a sparkling lake.

The wind here was slightly larger. The dust was flying.

Shao Xuan looked at a mountain-like sand dunes in front of him, observing around. He did not see anything suspicious, but the divination showed that there should be something around here. Did he still have to walk more?

Not only because of the divination, Shao Xuan also has a very strange feeling. He always felt that there should be something here.

As he went ahead to climb up the mountainous sand dunes, the strange feeling in his heart grew even more.

In Shao Xuan’s mind, the “shell” wrapped in the fire flashed up. This kind of change made Shao Xuan stop his movement.

As Shao Xuan was puzzling over it, he suddenly heard a light sound. Although there was the sound of the wind blowing the surrounding sand grains, after his ascension, his hearing has also increased, that he was able to distinguish other sounds from those noises. That was obviously not the sound of the sand blowing.

Quickly lying low on the ground, he pulled his hood up, then went in the direction of the sound to see what it was.

The sound was light, like the sound of the stone moving, but cautious. It seemed that the man who made the sound was on his guard.

Shao Xuan patiently lied there, staring in the direction of where the sound was coming.

The surrounding sand blew on Shao Xuan and later covered him.

Soon, Shao Xuan found that between the two dunes in front, a gap opened on the ground and the sand sank.

The gap opened more and more larger, until it could allow a person to go out. Shao Xuan then saw a person quickly coming out from inside, looked around and did not find anything, then only waved at the bottom of the gap.

Shao Xuan saw that the man had moved another man from the opened gap. Someone also seemed to be helping to send him out. It’s just that when the fatigued man was handed out, the underground gap closed.

The man who first came out looked at the surroundings, then dragged the other man to a distance.

Shao Xuan thought for a moment before following past the sand ridge and walking along the ridge line for cover. Although he could not follow far, he could at least see where those people went in the end.

The man walked farther, around a hill, then ploughed the sand off the ground with his hands. He ploughed out a pit, then pushed the person in. Before burrying the body, he had removed all the clothes off the man, compared them to his, then decided to to keep it for himself.

After collecting all the clothes, the man filled the pit with the surrounding sand, then looked around before returning.

Shao Xuan continued looking when the man came back. The man pulled at the sand until the slate buckled.

The slate was moved away and the man said something to the man below. Then, he went down the open seam.

The slate closed again and everything returned to normal. The wind quickly blew the sand, covering the place up until he could not see any abnormalities.

Shao Xuan wrote down the place, then went to where that person had just buried someone. He pulled out the sand, then saw the buried man.

Before, this man was dragged with his face down, hence, Shao Xuan had not seen his appearance. He only saw the person now, and Shao Xuan found that this person not only had his face but also his body full of multiple skin disintegration and necrosis, looking very frightening. His nostrils and other areas also had traces of bleeding.

Shao Xuan couldn’t see how the injuries on this person was caused. There were no hits on his face, if not for those festering injuries. It should be a tall and muscular man. In the desert, even if it was a low ranking slave, it was still good for labor.

That place, what the hell was down there? Shao Xuan was curious. If Dao Yu was there, on what purpose?

Shao Xuan lurked around the area, waiting for an opportunity.

Around the next afternoon, the weather was hot in the desert. Shao Xuan was still hiding behind the sand ridge and he had been covered with a layer of sand. He didn’t care about the heat of the sand as Shao Xuan stared at the other side. Then, he heard a little more movement.

Soon, there was a gap in the place again. Another man came out. It was not the one Shao Xuan saw last night, but he did the same thing.

After the other man came out, he also dragged the person to the distance, intending to dig a pit to bury the person. He was startled by the sudden appearance of Shao Xuan. Before he could make a noise, he was caught in his throat and his two arms fell loose.

Shao Xuan stared at the vanishing slave tattoo on the man’s body and found that the man was a slave of Baishi City.
