Free Web NovelChapter 513: Chapter 513: Dispirited
Zhang Yuan coldly looked at Dai Qin lying on the ground.
This warrior from the Hulan Tribe was very strong, reaching Tier Five, and his physique was superior to others at the same level.
Not only that, the sword techniques he executed were powerful, as fierce as the desert dust storm!
Unfortunately, this Hulan warrior encountered Zhang Yuan, who had stepped into Peak Level at Tier Six.
Zhang Yuan’s True Essence had long been refined into Gang Qi, and his cultivation of the Primordial Celestial Spirit True Method had greatly improved, along with stepping into Grandmaster Realm with the Six Harmonies Qilin Body.
In every aspect, he crushed Dai Qin, even without using a bit of strength from the Divine Nest, he could still pin the latter to the ground.
Dai Qin was completely courting humiliation.
The next moment, Zhang Yuan’s gaze shifted to the knight who had just galloped over on horseback.
It was none other than Bazhad.
Bazhad held the reins to halt his steed, and his rugged face was full of astonishment.
He saw Zhang Yuan, and also saw Dai Qin lying a few dozen steps away, like a dead dog, bewildered.
Bazhad knew Zhang Yuan was strong.
But exactly how strong Zhang Yuan was, Bazhad wasn’t very clear, he only had some guesses.
Now Bazhad realized that he had completely underestimated Zhang Yuan’s strength.
It’s worth noting that among all the martial artists in the Hulan Tribe, Dai Qin was ranked in the top ten in strength.
Three to five of them combined weren’t a match for Dai Qin!
Yet in front of Zhang Yuan, Dai Qin couldn’t even get up.
What a huge difference!
Bazhad couldn’t help but take a long breath, forcibly suppressing a trace of fear surfacing in his heart, and jumped off the horse.
He walked briskly towards Zhang Yuan, then greeted, "Zhang Yuan, it’s nice to see you!"
During their first encounter, Bazhad had a bit of a psychological advantage over Zhang Yuan.
But now, he was full of reverence.
Reverence for the strong! fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
"It’s not easy to meet you..."
Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Bazhad, how have you been lately?"
Brother?
Bazhad was delighted, quickly replying, "I’m doing well. I just heard you came looking for me, didn’t expect..."
He had no idea that Zhang Yuan had arrived in Nacuoda; it was Elder Bilige who sent messengers to inform him of the situation.
So Bazhad rushed to find Zhang Yuan, just in time to witness Zhang Yuan knocking down Dai Qin.
He was very thankful the situation hadn’t become uncontrollable yet.
Because Dai Qin had just regained consciousness and struggled to stand.
Obviously, he wasn’t seriously injured.
Bazhad was well aware that most likely Zhang Yuan had shown mercy.
"Bazhad!"
At this moment, Dai Qin shook his head and roared loudly, "How dare you collude with an outsider!"
The face of this prairie warrior turned purple-red, his countenance distorted and sinister, clearly furious to the extreme.
He clenched his fist and rushed towards Zhang Yuan and Bazhad, displaying a stance of fighting to the death.
And Dai Qin’s group of subordinates, as if awakening from a dream, quickly grasped their weapons and surrounded them.
The scene’s atmosphere became tense again!
"Dai Qin!"
Bazhad was almost infuriated by this muscle-bound fellow, and couldn’t help shouting, "Zhang Yuan is a friend of our Hulan Tribe, and also a distinguished guest of my household. Dare you try moving again?"
In terms of strength and cultivation, he was far inferior to Dai Qin.
But when it came to backing and even the nobility of bloodlines, Bazhad was no lower than Dai Qin.
Dai Qin halted his steps, his face turning incredibly gloomy.
Having made a fool of himself under Zhang Yuan’s hands earlier, this prestigious tribe warrior’s face was lost completely.
He wished to skin and dismember Zhang Yuan to wash away the shame on him!
But the problem was, with Bazhad intervening, Dai Qin couldn’t do as he pleased.
Furthermore, he wasn’t confident at all that he could defeat Zhang Yuan.
Adding to the fact that even with his group of subordinates, it wouldn’t work!
"You’ll see!"
Dai Qin eventually swallowed his resentment, left a tough remark, and then left with his subordinates.
Bazhad snorted coldly and immediately displayed a big smile towards Zhang Yuan, "Zhang Yuan, it’s chaotic here. How about coming into the city to visit my household, allowing me to inform my master?" freewēbnoveℓ.com
With Zhang Yuan’s strength now apparent, he must report this matter clearly to the head of his house.
As for subsequent hospitality or anything else, naturally, to be determined by the master!
However, to Bazhad’s surprise, Zhang Yuan shook his head and replied with disinterest, "Forget it, I’m fine staying here, and I’ll leave after watching the Segut tournament."
This time, Zhang Yuan had come to Nacuoda purely on a whim, with some interest in the Segut tournament.
As for other things, Zhang Yuan originally didn’t intend to cause trouble.
Yet matters inexplicably found their way to him!
Now Zhang Yuan had no desire to interact with the Hulan Tribe’s upper echelon, after all, he’s just a passerby.
"Alright then."
Bazhad was somewhat disappointed.
But his emotional intelligence was much higher than Dai Qin’s, and he immediately took out a wooden waist token from his chest and presented it with both hands: "Zhang Yuan, this is my master’s token. With it, you can freely enter and leave Nacuoda City."
"Additionally, you can get discounts when purchasing goods in the market!"
After some thought, Zhang Yuan accepted it: "Thank you."
If he didn’t take it, Bazhad’s psychological burden might be considerable, thinking he’s somehow been offended.
Seeing Zhang Yuan accept the token, Bazhad indeed felt relieved: "Then I’ll take my leave now. If you need anything, feel free to come to me, and as long as it’s within my capability, I won’t refuse!"
Zhang Yuan nodded, watching Bazhad mount his horse and leave.
He weighed the token in his hand, deciding to hang it on his belt.
The sky gradually darkened.
Zhang Yuan set up a bonfire next to his tent, preparing his dinner.
Originally there were many other herders’ tents nearby, but after the trouble with Dai Qin during the day, it made Zhang Yuan feel as if he had been isolated like a plague, leaving the area vacant within a hundred-step radius.
No one dared to move back, nor did any herdsmen approach Zhang Yuan.
As if he were regarded as a plague god!
Zhang Yuan wasn’t bothered by this, minding his own business, grilling the leg of lamb he purchased at the market earlier in the day.
There were many people in Nacuoda, but even more cattle and sheep, and the beef and mutton sold in the open-air market outside the city were not only fresh but also very cheap, just like a paradise for meat lovers.
Zhang Yuan was not short of gold and silver, so he bought several thousand pounds.
Most of it was quietly tucked into his Storage Space for future provisions.
The lamb was not only fresh and cheap, but the meat quality was top-notch, paired with the locally unique spices and seasonings, Zhang Yuan gorged himself, gleefully rewarding his digestive system.
Yet, as Zhang Yuan was enjoying his meal, a luxury carriage accompanied by dozens of guards arrived at the camping area where he resided.
Zhang Yuan immediately recognized the carriage.
He had seen it earlier at the oasis in the desert!
