As a waste in people's eyes, Su Gu had not given up. He was clear about his situation and analyzed the possible results if he continued to fail like this. Some people advised him to show weakness now and then show goodwill to his two brothers. However, Su Gu was clear about the temperament of his two brothers. No matter who became the king of Luoye City in the end, even if Su Gu's life was kept, Su Gu would not live well.
Instead of that, it was better to fight. A slave owner without ambition was not a good slave owner.
Because of this decision, Su Gu would practice in his room every day when others did not know. However, failure again and again made Su Gu's confidence less and less.
The number of times he tried was too many. Su Gu was very clear about every change in himself. After feeling the difference today, when he practiced enslavement again, he carefully observed it. Then, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the enslavement power was much smoother than usual and not as strenuous as before.
Why did such a change happen?
After the surprise, Su Gu began to carefully analyze it. He had also thought that it was the result of his daily practice, but he had never seen such an obvious change even when he had been practicing so diligently. These few days, due to various things, he had less time to practice than usual, but the result was incomparably shocking.
Why?
Why in the world?
Su Gu took out the things he did in the past two days and analyzed it bit by bit. The movement of his fingers suddenly stopped. His pupils shrank as he thought of a possibility.
Shao Xuan in Yanjiao!
The person who had a witch-like prediction ability!
Yes, it seemed that it was at that time that the change happened. Before, because of his heavy thoughts, he did not pay attention. Now that he thought about it, at that time, there was indeed a strange feeling. It was as if a ladle of muddy water mixed with sand was filtered by a densely woven linen cloth.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was so.
Su Gu walked back and forth in the room, jumping, clenching his fists and raising them. He took a few deep breaths to calm down his excited mood.
In order to be sure, Su Gu ran to the wanderer area again that day.
In the evening, Shao Xuan looked at the energetic and high-spirited third young master, practicing the enslavement method in front of him.
Since there was not enough firewood here, it was inconvenient to start a fire. Shao Xuan took out a water moon stone to light up the place. Looking at the little slave owner who was practicing, Shao Xuan did not chase him away. Instead, he observed the changes in the flame in his mind again. He guessed that because of the eggshell in his mind, Su Gu had some favorable changes. Su Gu wanted to gain benefits from this place, while Shao Xuan himself also wanted to study the source of the slave owners' power. Su Gu was just the right experimental subject.
Amidst the intertwining red and blue flames, the sense of chaos became weaker and weaker. The blue and red flames converged and became distinct. When Su Gu used the enslavement method, the blue flame that appeared on his hand became more and more stable. It was not like before, where it seemed to be blown away by the wind.
Ray, who lived in the opposite room, looked at the moon outside the window and then looked at the light coming from Shao Xuan's room. He thought to himself, Why is the Third Young Master here instead of sleeping so late at night? Was there something wrong with his brain?
Su Gu stayed with Shao Xuan until dawn the next day.
In the morning, the tribesmen who got up early talked about the cooperation between the three Yanjiao people and the waste of the Third Young Master. As they were talking, they saw the Yanjiao side's door open, and the Luoye City's Third Young Master, who they were just talking about, walked out quickly with a straight face, as if something had made him very angry.
After Su Gu left, the tribesmen who gathered together to chat were in disbelief.
"That was … Su Gu? The Luoye City's Third Young Master? "
"It seems so."
"What seems so? That's Su Gu!"
"How could Su Gu come out from Yanjiao? Could it be that he came here before dawn? "
"I heard that Su Gu came last night. He didn't leave until now? "
Even if the tribesmen cooperated with the slave owners, there had never been a slave owner who stayed overnight in the tribe's place. Seeing this, they couldn't help but think.
"Looking at Su Gu's face, did he quarrel with the Yanjiao people?"
"It's estimated that they didn't reach an agreement."
"It's very likely."
In their view, whether it was Su Gu or the three Yanjiao people, they were unreliable. It was certain that they would get together to quarrel.
On the other side, Su Gu tried to maintain a tight face, not letting people see the excitement in his heart. He held back his laughter until the blue veins came out, and his face looked a bit scary. It was not that he didn't want to laugh. If he came out of Yanjiao with a happy face, people would certainly guess what benefits he got from Yanjiao.
Shao Xuan's ability could not be known to others. If it was known by his two brothers, it was estimated that they would dig him out from here. Su Gu had never been so fortunate to cooperate with Yanjiao.
At first, when Su Gu decided to cooperate with the Yanjiao people, his heart didn't take them too seriously. Even if it was not a Yanjiao tribe, as long as it was a tribe, he would treat it with the same attitude. But now, Su Gu's view of the Yanjiao people had completely changed. Whether it was Shao Xuan's words or his own changes, he must pay attention to them.
This transaction was really worth it! Thinking of Shao Xuan's request, Su Gu also began to prepare. The Yanjiao people wanted to know more about the slave owners, so he had to quickly prepare these. Otherwise, this ally would be gone.
Returning to the palace from the tribal area, Su Gu saw that the slaves were moving out a lot of sharp-bottomed pottery filled with fruit wine from the wine cellar. Today, there was fruit wine to drink. Su Gu's mood was better, and he couldn't help but smile. Now, he finally laughed. Well, when the time came, he could have someone send a jar to Yanjiao.
He was in a good mood. Even to the slaves, Su Gu rarely showed a smile.
When the slaves holding the wine jars saw Su Gu's smile, they almost shook and dropped the wine jars.
This was the third young master? The third young master could smile so kindly and not hypocritically?
Was he still not awake?
Su Gu did not look at the wine slave who was there, and went straight to his residence. When he passed through the pool in the palace, he was in a good mood to stop and enjoy it.
In the desert, it was extravagant to build such a pool for growing flowers and raising turtles. Only the king's palace could have such a view.
Su Gu did not know the flowers that grew in the water. He saw a turtle crawling out of the water, lying on the edge of the pool, half of its body exposed outside.
The turtles in the pool were brought back from other places by Su Gu's father. He thought that they could not be raised. Who knew that a lot of them survived, but they were not active. Every day, they were listless. Poking them with a straw pole, they rarely responded. The color of their bodies also became lighter. He didn't know what was going on.
Where there were flowers and pools, the air seemed particularly fresh and moist. Su Gu sat on the edge of the pool, looking at the turtle. He quickly poked it with his finger, but the turtle did not move.
He poked again.
It still did not move.
Su Gu did not care about it.
Looking around, he saw that a group of patrolling slaves had just passed by and left. There was no one else around.
Su Gu thought of the results of his night. He could not help but reach out and mobilize the power in his body. Soon, a blue flame appeared in his palm. The flame was so stable that its shape could be seen clearly.
Feeling the smooth feeling of this process, Su Gu's mood was refreshed like cold water on a hot day.
Perhaps, it would not be long before he could enslave people and get a real slave that belonged to him!
Looking at the flame in his palm, Su Gu's eyes caught a glimpse of the turtle that was slowly moving. Like a ghost, he stretched his hand over there.
The moment he touched the turtle's back, the blue flame followed Su Gu's palm and spread to the turtle's body.
With the spread of the flame, black stripes appeared on the turtle's back. Su Gu felt a force, passing along his arm to the turtle.
After a few breaths, Su Gu felt the energy in his body stabilize again, and the flame in his palm disappeared.
A sense of exhaustion hit him. Su Gu rubbed his forehead, feeling something. His eyes stared at the turtle lying on the edge of the pool. The expression on his face changed from disbelief, to confusion, to surprise, and then to anger. The rapid change of expression made the muscles on his face twitch.
His enslavement was successful.
This was worth celebrating, worth being happy.
But!
Su Gu really did not want to be the first slave owner in history to enslave a turtle for the first time!
