After Shao Xuan returned to the Luoye City station, he asked Su Gu to pass the message that he wanted to talk to Luoye City's king, Su Lun.
Knowing that Shao Xuan wanted to talk to Su Lun about Lei and Tuo, Su Gu agreed. He could still help with this.
From the beginning, Shao Xuan rarely saw the king. The kings of the cities were not like the other small slave owners, who went to the Colosseum pit to gamble all day long. For the king, fighting in the Colosseum pit was simply shameful. The only thing that could match them was the huge Colosseum.
The fighting beasts used for the Colosseum in Luoye City were in the other direction of the station, separated from the fighting beasts of the small slave owners. Every day, there were people who trained them. Because of the wind, people and beasts in the upwind could not smell the thick bloody smell, but if they walked over, it would be obvious.
Su Gu went to Su Lun's side and came back not long after.
"Father is busy. He said he won't see you." Su Gu helplessly told Shao Xuan.
Shao Xuan frowned. Su Lun did not want to see him. He originally wanted to talk to Su Lun about what to do if he met Lei and Tuo in the Colosseum, but now it seemed that this road was blocked.
Looking at Shao Xuan's reaction, Su Gu continued, "Although my father won't see you, I told him about Lei and Tuo. My father said that as long as you can beat the Baishi City's fighting beasts, he will solve the other things. You don't have to worry about Baishi's side making things difficult."
Seeing that Shao Xuan did not speak, Su Gu thought that Shao Xuan had given up. After all, it was the Colosseum. It was not something that ordinary people could go down to fight. Even the slaves who went down were the slave owners' right-hand men. Every year, more than half of the people who went down could not come out again.
Last year, when Dao Yu went down, many people were not optimistic. Many people saw him as a joke. They bet on Luoye City's fighting beasts to win, but did not think that Dao Yu could come out alive. It was simply a direct slap in the face of Luoye City's people. He heard that afterward, Su Lun also sent people to assassinate Dao Yu. Unfortunately, it was not successful. Instead, he was often assassinated by people over there.
"Alas, forget it." Su Lun said, "If it were me, I wouldn't have come here."
"I'll go," Shao Xuan said.
"It's good that you know. If you go, you'll lose your life … What did you say?!" Su Gu picked his ear, looking at Shao Xuan, and asked with uncertainty.
"I said I'll go. I'll have to trouble you to talk to the Luoye King again. "Shao Xuan said.
Su Gu's face was hard to understand and had an expression of "you idiot", but seeing that Shao Xuan really made a decision, he no longer tried to persuade him. He sighed in his heart, "The people of the tribe are really a bunch of people who want to die!"
"However, let me say this first. Although Father said before that if you can defeat the White Stone City's battle beasts, everything will be easy, but he may not really agree to let you go on stage. You know, we don't get along well with the people of Baishi City. Last year, we lost a game. Father is angry in his heart. This year, he will definitely send more powerful slaves down, or directly let his riding beast go down. Otherwise, if we lose again, he will be angry. "
"Well, I know." If he was rejected again, Shao Xuan could only think of another way.
"Can't you predict? Can you predict what will happen after the Colosseum opens? "Su Gu asked.
Shao Xuan shook his head. He tried, but he couldn't. What came out was a mess, not a knot, indicating that he couldn't divine this matter. However, Shao Xuan always felt that something would happen. This feeling made Shao Xuan feel very powerless. It was like being in a thick fog, seemingly aware of something in front of him, but unable to see clearly.
Su Gu once again entered the two-story building where Su Lun was. He originally thought that Su Lun would once again reject him, but to Su Gu's surprise, Su Lun actually agreed. He also said that when the time came, he would arrange for Shao Xuan to go on stage depending on the situation.
This time, Su Gu couldn't guess his father's thoughts.
Shao Xuan also couldn't see Su Lun's intentions, but the Colosseum would open tomorrow. Lei and Tuo would most likely be arranged by the people of Baishi City. If he wanted to save them, he could either rob them in advance, or directly fight, and then use the manpower of the Luoye City king to sweep away the trouble. Both were risky, so he could only act according to the circumstances.
Before that, he had to prepare more.
That afternoon, Shao Xuan stayed in the house most of the time. Su Gu asked the slaves around what Shao Xuan did. The slaves couldn't say why. They only said that Shao Xuan came out a few times, as if he was looking for something. After picking it up, he went back.
"What did he pick up?" Su Gu asked.
The slave who was asked carefully thought about it and replied, "It's like a branch? Or a stone? "Then he gestured.
Su Gu was disappointed to let the slave leave. He wanted to ask Shao Xuan what he was doing, but then he remembered that Shao Xuan said today that he shouldn't bother him. After two steps, Su Gu turned again. He still wanted to see how the clothes for tomorrow were prepared. Tomorrow was an important day.
No one knew what Shao Xuan was doing, and no one in the station cared. Except for the people patrolling around, the focus was on the Colosseum.
The next day, the Luoye City team set out from the station to the Colosseum.
Luoye City King Su Lun was still sitting on his riding beast, but this time, he was not alone. He was also holding a woman, and the two people showed intimacy. Although Shao Xuan couldn't see clearly because of the curtain, he could tell what was happening just by listening to the sounds.
The woman was from Shaqi City, the half-sister of the current Shaqi King. He didn't know if the two people hooked up after coming here, or if they had been in contact for a long time.
There were also intermarriages between the cities. The communication between the slave owners was generally good, except for when they became enemies.
Su Gu saw his father holding another woman intimately, showing quite calmness. Anyway, it was not the first time. If he could have a bigger riding beast, he would certainly take the beautiful female slave he had just enslaved to do the same thing. No, the female slave's grade was too low. Today, it would be too shameful to take her with him, not worthy of his identity as a young master. A few days ago, the Skywheel City girl who lost to him in a gambling fight was good. Her temper was the same as their Skywheel City's Skywheel pillar, full of thorns. Or the one in Red Star City? It was still not suitable. That woman did not look good …
Shao Xuan glanced at Su Gu's fanciful expression and focused his attention on the slave owners of the other cities.
After entering the city, he clearly felt that the atmosphere was different from usual. There was a kind of forbearance eagerness. The little slave owners who were arrogant and domineering in the past few days were very well-behaved today. The Skywheel City girl who pulled out a knife against Shao Xuan and Su Gu a few days ago looked very quiet today.
When they were close to the Colosseum, Shao Xuan saw the people of Baishi City. He did not see Lei and Tuo, but there was a big box in the team over there. He didn't know if the person was locked in that wooden box. Unfortunately, there were too many people here. Shao Xuan could not find a chance to move the box.
The people of Luoye City and Baishi City were full of gunpowder when they met. If it were not for the arrival of Rock Tomb City, they would probably do a warm-up first.
In the team of Rock Tomb City, on the huge riding beast, Shao Xuan also saw an acquaintance. Although he had not seen him for a few years, his shiny golden hair was too eye-catching.
Shi Shu, the slave owner that Shao Xuan met when he was looking for Yan Shuo, was also one of the young masters of Rock Tomb City.
As usual, if the people of the three major cities came, they had priority. The people of the other cities naturally had to give way first.
At this time, no one noticed that when Shi Shu's riding beast passed by, Dao Yu, who was standing on the Baishi king's riding beast, slightly bowed his head, as if to salute.
