When the leader of the patrol team of the Longboat tribe was wondering what kind of tribe the Flaming Horns tribe was, Shao Xuan’s group was hurrying along their journey thanks to the fine weather.
Originally he had planned to take a boat to travel, but found that there was still a lot of ice on the river. Although the ice was not too thick, it would certainly make it difficult to row the boat. In the Longboat tribe there was little livestock. The people of this tribe never traded livestock. Therefore they couldn’t travel by riding. Finally they decided to leave on foot.
Another four people joined them, so Chacha couldn’t carry them as before. Moreover, Yan Zhi and the others found it tiring to travel quickly, because they had not awakened their totem power yet. That was why they slowed down a lot.
After walking for more than half a day, Shao Xuan stopped to let everyone have a rest.
“Here, we have completely left the Longboat tribe, right?” Yang Sui asked.
“Maybe, I have never come so far from the tribe before.” Thinking about it, Yan Zhi said, “But I have taken a boat and travel such a long distance at that time.”
They had been deceived into leaving and got into trouble in a place which was far from the Longboat tribe. Had they been unlucky, they would have not been able to return to the wanderer area of the Longboat tribe safely.
But this time, they had completely different feelings.
Jiao Wu looked around and saw that the mountains were covered with something white. In some places on the mountain the snow had melted, so some rock and plants were exposed . If the fine weather lasted for five or six days, more would be exposed.
The weather here was better than that in the tribe, right now at this time it must be snowing with a heavy wind there.
An eagle’s cry was heard in the air, it seemed just like any other cry. But Shao Xuan was the only one who knew that Chacha had noticed something irregular, because he was familiar with Chacha.
“Someone is coming!” Shao Xuan said.
The people who were resting became nervous at once.
“Who?” Yan Zhi asked.
Shao Xuan looked at the sky, and then looked to where the Longboat tribe was located.
“The people of the Longboat tribe?” Yan Zhi asked bepuzzled, “They seldom go out in the winter.”
“No, not the people of the Longboat tribe,” Shao Xuan said, “maybe the travelers.”
Hearing this, Yan Zhi and the others felt worried and scared.
“Did they really chase us here to kill us?!” Although it didn’t snow, but the weather was still very cold. So Jiao Wu couldn’t believe that they still chased them.
Looking at the sky once again, Shao Xuan said to Yan Zhi and the others, “You find a place to hide.”
“And you?” Yan Zhi asked.
“Don’t worry about me.” Shao Xuan said.
Yan Zhi sighed. They all felt helpless and very depressed, but they had to do as Shao Xuan said. If they didn’t do so, they would only bring trouble to Shao Xuan and be killed.
Huo Qiu, who had confronted with Shao Xuan in the wanderer area that day, was there. He was leading the group that was chasing them.
That day, after Huo Qiu had returned from the wanderer area with his men, he had felt even angrier, because he had been scolded and beaten by the leader of the traveling team due to his report about the situation. It had taken him two days to heal.
He had thought that the leader would directly help them give a lesson to the warriors of the Flaming Horns tribe. But several people of the Longboat tribe came looking for them, so the senior totem warriors of the traveling team were blocked. So Huo Qiu could only chase after them himself. There were still some footprints in the snow. Although the footprints were not very clear, Huo Qiu was sure that those were their footprints.
The tracks of wanderers were different from those of totem warriors.
But he didn’t know whether Shao Xuan was there.
Thinking of Shao Xuan, Huo Qiu was a little scared. But he only hesitated for a moment, and then they continued to chase them. Even if they couldn’t defeat them, he believed that they only needed to stop them moving forward and wait for their leader to arrive.
Huo Qiu was confident that they could stop them from moving forward.
While thinking about that, Huo Qiu suddenly felt a strong sense of danger.
“Be careful!” Huo Qiu said.
In front of them, someone jumped down from a tree.
Huo Qiu hadn’t seen him clearly. His people walking in front of him were kicked away, and some were thrown at him.
Huo Qiu dodged the people thrown at him, but the people behind him responded slowly, so they were hit. They fell down together, rolling around in the snow.
Ignoring the people behind him, Huo Qiu’s eyelids twitched, he knew this was a powerful person.
Fast!
Too fast!
Huo Qiu didn’t see his face and only noticed his cold stone sword being pulled on him swiftly. He raised his axe in his hand to stop the sword.
Bang!
His stone axe was cut and severe dents were left.
Holding the stone axe, Huo Qiu fell back two steps because of the powerful strike and his dark face flushed. The strong impact against the axe, force the totem power in his body to rise to the peak. The muscles of his arm were numb from the shock of the impact. His hand holding the axe even trembled severely, almost dropping it.
Great strength!
Feeling shocked and scared, Huo Qiu looked at the man who struck at him. Then he felt even more scared.
It was Shao Xuan!
Huo Qiu still remembered the arrogant look on Shao Xuan’s face back in the wanderer area of the Longboat tribe, making him suffer defeat. But now, Shao Xuan no longer looked arrogant. Thanks to his rich traveling experience, he was more sensitive than others. Otherwise, he may not have been able stop the sword.
He didn’t show his power, so Huo Qiu felt even more worried.
Before Huo Qiu could respond, Shao Xuan kicked him in his lower abdomen.
The great strength made Huo Qiu lose strength in his legs. His legs tried hard to keep still, but became weak, and then he took a few steps back. His waist bent because of the kick. He vomitted out the roasted meat he had eaten at noon.
Although he felt scared, he was irritated by this successive hit. He couldn’t control his rage, so before he regained balance, he fiercely struck the axe towards Shao Xuan’s waist.
He had dodged the stone axe that swiftly flew at him. The axe failed to hit him, but hit the tree trunk behind him, which directly cut down the three.
Ignoring the falling tree behind him, Shao Xuan summoned up his strength to directly rush at Huo Qiu and strike him more powerfully.
The sounds of stones colliding and wood breaking were heard almost at the same time. The wooden handle of the stone axe in Huo Qiu’s broke because of the powerful impact.
Shao Xuan’s second strike hit the same place of his axe, causing his stone axe to almost break.
His hand holding the stone sword shook, so the sword attached to the stone axe also shook. Thus the stone axe was completely broken.
Before the two halves of the stone axe fell down, Shao Xuan grabbed and threw it a person rushing at him. The man with the spear failed to block the stone axe half and fell to the ground.
The other half of the stone axe was kicked by Shao Xuan and thrown at Huo Qiu, which directly hit Huo Qiu’s chest.
Bang!
The stone hit his chest, breaking his bones. When these sounds were heard, Huo Qiu was thrown back and slipped in the snow for a few meters. This time he did not vomit food, but blood. He felt pain in his abdomen, chest, and even his whole body. Because of the strong impact, his arm had become numb and it hurt again. He felt a lot of pain and even passed out for a moment.
When Huo Qiu became conscious again, only three of the ten people that came surrounded him now, too afraid to attack.
Huo Qiu was regretting it now. He did not expect Shao Xuan to be so strong. He had only planned to stop him from traveling forward, but unexpectedly he couldn’t even block his attack and couldn’t do anything more to stop him. He had tried his best.
Falling on the ground, Huo Qiu spat blood again, but did not pass out. Ignoring the three travelers whose legs were trembling, he ferociously stared at Shao Xuan.
“You wait ... you all ... wait ... wait ... we ...” He said while coughing.
Before he finished his words, he coughed again and again. He couldn’t continue to speak. He had been beaten by the leader of the traveling team on the boat in the Longboat tribe and his old wounds hadn’t healed up. Now he got serious injuries again and became unable to even speak.
