"What are blood pills"

Bia Xiao shook the bottle in his hand, he had heard from the talks of the other members of the tribe that pills were great when used in conjunction with practicing martial arts, but he had never seen or tried one before. 

After finishing his food, Bia Xiao got up from where he was seated and headed for the bath barrel, he could smell that his body was releasing a pregnant scent. Thus he had no complaints about take a bathe at this moment.

"Hot water seems like this elder Blue has so status here now"

Bia Xiao took off the black robes he was wear and threw them to the side, afterward he got into the water and started to wash. After half an hour, he got dressed in the new white robes that were provided to him, the robes fitted his size perfectly, it was too tight or too roomie either. 

After doing all of that, he steps out of the room while putting away the pill bottle and picking up the Myriad Beast Spear. When he came out of the room, he saw a girl that looked to be around 17-18 standing at the said of the door. She was wearing average clothing and seemed to have been waiting for him.

"Greetings young master Bia Xiao"

Once Bia Xiao was fully out of the room, the girl walked up to him and bowed. When Bia Xiao heard what she said, it was like his brain started to work in reverse, he looked around as if he was looking to see if there was someone else with the same name as himself.

But when he noticed that he was the only person here, other than the young girl, he turned to look at her was a weird look. 

"Are you talking to me?" 

Bia Xiao leaned his head to the side as if he was making sure he wasn't hearing things.

"Yes, my name is Cooper. I have no other name than this, I was sent here by senior Bia Ginze to serve you'

Coe'er bowed to Bia Xiao with respect. She was someone who had was sold by her family to the Bia tribe as a means for protection and a way for the family to not starve. She was sold as a servant and as been severing for one year now. 

"I've never seen you before. But doesn't matter, I don't need a servant I'm ok, you can go back and tell the others I'm ok, I need no one"

Bia Xiao lift the Myriad Beast Spear as he turned to walk away, he knew not what stunt the Bia tribe was pulling and if they were, he wanted no part in it. While he was walking away, he began to also head footsteps following behind him, when he stopped and turned around, Coe'er was following behind him with a calm face. 

Bia Xiao was stumped on the spot. He stared at Coe'er for a long while before asking. 

"Don't you have something else to do?"

Bia Xiao felt uncomfortable with this girl following him around, he would be going to look for his mom and dad to pay his respects and if this girl were to follow him, he would surely be placed in an uncomfortable spot. 

"No, I have nowhere else to go but server. If...if I don't, m..my family"

As Bia Xiao listens to the soft mumblings of the girl, he kind of started to get the picture and s better understanding of what's going on with the girl. He was also thinking of what he could give her to do but he had nothing to do because he had nothing.

"Sigh, to tell you the truth. I have nothing for you to do, I don't even have a proper house for you to live in. No one likes me, I have nothing" 

Bia Xiao was taught from a younger age to respect girls form his mother, thus even though he knew she was a slave, he still treated her as just a normal girl and explained to her the truth. 

"I have heard about master during the time I was here. I don't care that much, I'm used to not having much" 

Cooper took a step to stand to the side of Bia Xiao await him to leave so she could follow. This was the training she had been giving when she arrives within the tribe and was the etiquette she had to follow or she would be published. 

"Sigh, look, I'm not used to this type of thing. You can just call me Xiao from now on and stop calling me master. Walk beside and not behind me, that's irritating"

Bia Xiao frowned as he saw the actions of Coe'er, he knew that it was the clan who had done this to her. He had seen Bia Long with three slaves on numerous occasions thus it wasn't surprising to see her act this way. 

"No, I can't call you by your first name or walk beside you. I'll... I'll be a punishment"

Cooper shook her head with great force, she was afraid of the punish of the tribe. She had heard from the other slaves that the punishment was harsh and she didn't want to test it out herself

"I am telling you to do it, so just do it"

Bia Xiao frowned as he waited for her to come beside him. He had no time to go back and forth with this issue so he used a firm voice to let her know he might business. 

"Yes, ma...I mean Xiao"

Cooper walked to the side of Bia Xiao and started to walk shoulder to shoulder with him. It was the first time she had walked shoulder to shoulder with a Bia family member, if he were the others, slaves, then she would practically be walking behind others all day long.

"I only have a small bed, I'll try to expand my home for you'

Bia Xiao while walking, broke a conversation between himself and Cooper, while he was walking, he didn't realize the stars that were directed towards him and that people actually came out of his way while he walked. But Coe'er sure took notice of it all. 

"It seems like that are now intimidated by you or elder senior Bia Ginza" 

Cooper looked at the members of the Bia tribe who were staying put and to themselves, Bia Xiao didn't even look at any of them as if they didn't even exist at all. He only kept the focus on where he was going and that was it. 

"Do you like roast meat?"

Bia Xiao asked all of a sudden, he didn't know of Coe'er had eat anything so he just randomly ask a question. Whether or not she did, he was full and had no intentions to eat anything else or to stay within the hall either. 

"Yeah, I use to eat it a lot when I was back home"

Coe'er started to smile as she remembered the time when her father use to hunt for meat for them to eat and enjoy. Even in the winter, her dad would do his best to find food for them to eat no matter what. 

"Good, it's all I know to do really so it a good thing haha"

Bia Xiao laughed as he made his way home. While walking, he passed man shops that were set up in the tribe by many family members or other people who had seek shelter within the tribe. 

One could even find blacksmiths and pill makers, but the quality of their products were very limited. Even so, the Bia tribe was bustling during the night time as always despite the war. The death toll was very heavy so the clothes that were mostly frown was black and the majority of the people that past by had down cast faces. 

"Xiao, I heard you've killed someone. His taking a life that easy?"

Coe'er turned to look at Bia Xiao and asked with a sad face. Looking around her she could see the pain of the others, if it was her, she would be crying for days on end. The last of a love one was a terrible thing to handle, if one wasn't of a strong heart, it was very easy to lose yourself. 

"I've killed before yes. But if I didn't do it, I would have been killed or the people that I know and see everyday would've been killed"

Bia Xiao turned to face Coe'er, within the martial world, death was just a passing moment. He had seened that within this war, it was everyman for themselves but if you wanted to protect others, you must first have the strength to do so. 

"I try to not to think about it. If I do, I don't know what state I would be thrown in"

Bia Xiao turned and started walking again, the Myriad Beast Spear was held firmly in his hand like a tool of death.
