Off to see elde Bia Ginze

As night fell, Bia Xiao and Coe'er stood beside the little hut that Bia Xiao had made, the surrounding area was filled with grass and weeds grew very tall. The little hut with the care of Bia Xiao didn't receive much care within the last year that he was away.

Thus when he finally returned, it was almost in a run downstate. But this didn't bother him too much, with the piles of wood he had at this moment, he could make a few adjustments with ease. Given several hours, he would be able to add a next room, a wash area, and a place to eat. He was even thinking of building a fence around the new house he had in mind.

"Xiao, can I ask you a question?"

Coe'er walked up to Bia Xiao with a blush on her face, she held a piece of cloth that she used to wipe the sweat off the forehead if Bia Xiao even though he had told her she need not trouble herself.

"Sure, go ahead" replied Bia Xiao as he stabbed the Myriad Beast Spear in the ground and sat down.

He was looking at the lamps that were slowly being lit up around the tribe, the sight was very beautiful and heartwarming. He remembered when his mother used to take him to this very spot to watch the lights slowly being lit up, this was one of his most favorite places to come when he was little.

This was also the reason why he chose to build his little hut here in the first place. It wasn't just a random spot that he picked on a whim. Thinking about the past, he also remembered to go and visit the location of his mom and dad's gravesite.

"Why are you protecting me so much, after all, I'm just a slave bought by the Bia tribe to work"

After finishing wiping the sweat off of Bia Xiao's face, Coe'er walked over to the pile of wood and took a seat. Her eyes made contact with the rest of the members of the tribe that were passing by and she could see the disdain on their faces and the mockery in their eyes.

"After my mother and father died, I was only, I know how loneliness feels and to look down upon by others. Even though I have a little amount of strength now, it still counts for nothing"

Bia Xiao could see the look of worry in Coe'ers eyes, it was a good thing she had gotten him to serve because he had seen how the other works were treated by the other members of the tribe and it wasn't good. One could even say that they were better off never coming in the first place.

Made this was also the reason why elder Bia Ginze had assigned her to him in the first place. With his protection as a member of the punishment hall, Bia Xiao had nothing to worry about but he wasn't the kind to live in the shadow of another or one to rely on others.

"How do you get over so much loneliness. How could a family treat another like how they have treated you"

Coe'er had heard a lot of things while she was in the tribe about Bia Xiao, she had even learned of the events surrounding the death of his mother by an elder of their main clan. Afterward, the entire tribe turned their backs at him.

"I try not to think about it. Giving myself, goals to work towards, constantly pushing myself forward, and never stop"

Bia Xiao smiled, at this time, all the lamps within the tribe were fully lit up. All the shops were opened and the members of the tribe seemed to be more active than in the day.

"It's truly a beautiful site"

Coe'er turned to look at the bustling tribe that was starting to get crowded. The many shops that sold meat, buns, wooden chairs, beds, clothes, and even trading shops could be found within the tribe. The area that the tribe tool up was very large and many could be found with several different talents.

"Since you will be living with me now, I guess I should start to hunt, so I can trade the materials to get some good stuff"

Bia Xiao spoke without thinking, without even noticing, Coe'er had a deep blush on her face with made it extremely red and cute. But all of this escaped the eyes of Bia Xiao, he was just 15 and had never come into contact with females on such a level before.

Thus, when he mentioned now living together, he didn't put much thought into what he was saying. The trade shops in the tribe collected raw materials such as beast bones, skin, and even rear beast teeth that could be used to make weapons. There were even herbs shops that trader herbs for other goods or if the trade wanted money, that could also be exchanged as well.

On the Great Lou Plain, one of the most basic forms of trading were Copper, Silver, and Gold. 1000 copper coins would make one Silver coin and 1000 silver coins would make one gold coin.

"I need to go and get a hammer and other supplies to get started"

Bia Xiao said as he got up and headed towards the main hall. The night was approaching and he needs to get busy, just as Coe'er was about to follow him, he turned around to stop her.

"There's no need for you to follow. It would appear that I will have to get food prepared a little later than expected. You can go inside the hut and take a rest, I'll handle things on this site for now"

Bia Xiao couldn't afford to have Coe'er running around behind him all day and all night long. After all, she was just a girl and she had never trained before, this he knew full well that she was very tired.

"But won't those people come back again if you're not here?"

Could ask with a trembling voice. If she said she wasn't afraid of these people, she would be lying. The leaders of the tribe would always turn a blind eye towards the deaths of slaves thus if she were to die, nothing much would come of it and that made her heart run cold.

"If they come and try anything, I will kill them. Even if I have to flee away from this place, I will return someday to make it flow with blood"

Bia Xiao's eyes flash a dangerous light before he turned away. The Myriad Beast Spear for some reason didn't fly out of the ground and into Bia Xiao's hand like it usually did. While he was walking, he was some hay waiting for the spear to come, but after not seeing the spear moving, he left it be.

"This spear is so weird"

Bia Xiao thought. While he was gone, Coe'er turned and was just about to head into the little hut. But when she saw that Bia Xiao had left his spear outside, she walked over to the spear and was about to pick it up. When he reached out her hand, the spear flew up and flew into the hut on its own accord.

Coe'er blushed red again, her face was hot with shame as she glared at the spear laying silently in the corner.

"You don't want to touch you. I like swords anyway"

Coe'er stuck her tongue out at the spear,  just as she was about to lay on the wooden bed stuffed with dry weeds, she left a gentle wave which blew her into the bed as she released a surprised scream. Her hair instantly became messy and weeds were sticking all over it.

"Look it's Bia Xiao, I heard that he almost killed Bia Long and his rookies"

"That's not right. The rookies that are following him around are at the seventh level of the meridian opening realm, could that be?"

"Yeah, I heard the same thing too. It was elder Bia Suyu who came up to stop him from doing so"

While Bia Xiao was making his way but to the great hall, he heard many stories of his battle in the early part of the day. He didn't care much, regardless of the odd stares he was giving or the mockery that was directed his way.

"I don't believe he's that strong. Senior Bia Ginze had lowered his strength to boost the ego of this kid. He's still nothing but trash seeking a strong backing"

Bia Xiao continued to walk towards the main hall as if it was a normal day, no matter the sounds he heard around him or the bustling news of the mark places, he would only continued to walk towards the main hall as if nothing was related to him.

After walking for 15 minutes, he finally arrived at the entrance to the great hall. Standing on both were two guards he held iron swords in there hands with a serious facial expression.

"I came back to see Elder Bia Ginz"

Bia Xiao stated his purpose of coming back to one of the guards. The guard made eye contact with the other guard before turning away to report Bia Xiao's arrival to Bia Ginze.
