Chapter 1852 - 1448: Nomadic Tribe, Qiwowen Du! (Part 2)

This...

Gu Changsheng looked at the pitch-black face before him, truly not knowing what to say!

Gu Changsheng had little interest in this young man from the Nomadic tribe, but he felt that his previous reminder was at least well-intentioned; otherwise, he wouldn’t tolerate his continuous chatter in front of him!

His eyes still rested on the two tall men in front of the chessboard, unable to hide his worry, seeing them only stroke their chins in deep thought, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but sigh, "If I had known earlier, I should have studied this black and white path properly, otherwise, I wouldn’t be at my wit’s end, unable to even lend a little help!"

"Playing chess is extremely dull; my mother came from the Central Plains and was a lady of high standing with great chess skills, but I simply don’t have the patience, can’t sit still, and although they say playing chess and fishing cultivates one’s mind, I’m not the least bit interested!" Qiwowen Du shook his head in disdain upon hearing this.

Gu Changsheng wasn’t the least bit surprised by his words.

The Nomadic tribe is originally a mixed heritage tribe, residing near the boundary between the Northern Mongolian and Central Plains, living a wandering life, accepted by neither the Central Plains nor the Northern Mongolian, making it an extremely awkward existence; Qiwowen Du hails from the Nomadic tribe, and his mother being a lady from the Central Plains isn’t anything surprising!

Seeing Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue at a loss in front of the chessboard, seemingly about to study for a long time, Gu Changsheng turned and said to Yuan Bao, "Clean up a bit, let’s start cooking!"

They had been in the second layer of the Star Innate Tower, delaying for half a day, and Gu Changsheng was already feeling a bit hungry.

"Ah! You’re going to cook again? You’re really... enjoying a feast extravagantly in front of us, a bunch of hungry ghosts, is it really a good idea to attract resentment like this?" Qiwowen Du howled in complaint upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s words.

Gu Changsheng glanced at him, responding lukewarmly, "I’ll let you taste some!"

Quit being a chatterbox! Her head was already starting to ache from listening.

"Really? Truly? Ah! You wonderful lady, you’re just too kind! Tell me your name, and when you return to the Nomadic tribe, I’ll look after you, Young Master!" Qiwowen Du was instantly overjoyed upon hearing these words.

"Look after me? It seems like you’re quite capable of that!" Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but curl his lips into a slight smile upon hearing this.

How long has it been? No one has spoken to her like this!

Look after her? He’s certainly boasting beyond measure!

"Of course, I am after all from the Nomadic tribe..." Qiwowen Du patted his chest and was about to speak.

"Young Master!" The two strong men who had been observing Qiwowen Du called out softly.

Qiwowen Du, reminded of his near slip, coughed awkwardly and chose not to continue the previous topic.

On the contrary, Gu Changsheng, observing everything, looked at Qiwowen Du with a meaningful gaze, hesitated for a moment before speaking, "The Nomadic tribe resides at the Northern Mongolian and Central Plains boundary, thousands of miles from here, why did you come here to participate in the Star Innate Tower’s trial?"

Qiwowen Du waved his hand with annoyance, saying, "Don’t mention it, do you know about the Southern Emperor’s visit to the Northern Mongolian?"

Gu Changsheng immediately raised his eyebrows and nodded.

Darn it, could this matter somehow be related to me?

"The Southern Emperor’s awe-inspiring presence at Yanmen Pass, we don’t even know what she was thinking; she moved those tribes that declared independence to the border between the Northern Mongolian and the Central Plains! Heaven knows, this is the junction spanning tens of thousands of miles between various countries, originally our Nomadic tribe’s dwelling place, but now it’s a mess due to those tribes that suddenly migrated. If not for considering the Southern Emperor’s face, I, Young Master, would have already stirred troops to expel them, and wouldn’t have to endure watching those cuckoos occupy our nests!" Qiwowen Du waved his hands in frustration, not noticing the anxious expressions of his two subordinates.

Gu Changsheng’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing his words, looking at Qiwowen Du, her expression became thoughtful.

In the junction area, there was a city named Lin Yuan, commanded by Shi Wujue, existing outside of various nations, and beyond the country’s junction area, resides the people of the Nomadic tribes, a tribe formed by mixed heritage, nomadic and large, reportedly all extraordinarily beautiful and skillful...

The relocation turmoil starting near Yanmen Pass, how extensive it spread, Gu Changsheng hadn’t witnessed, but imagining it, she knew the relocated population was certainly not a mere number!

But, for such a large-scale migration, Qiwowen Du dared to boast about stirring troops to drive them away, what does this imply?

Gu Changsheng didn’t know much about the Nomadic tribe, but looking at Qiwowen Du’s appearance, he didn’t seem to be lying!

Moreover, regarding his mention of considering the Southern Emperor’s face, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help feeling quite gratified!

"So you’re saying that the Southern Emperor’s move indeed brought many inconveniences to your Nomadic tribe?" Leaning against a sack, Gu Changsheng looked at Qiwowen Du with interest, speaking spiritedly.

"Inconvenience isn’t quite accurate, our tribe has always survived within the crevices between various nations, but their large-scale migration greatly affected our trade interactions and they’ve taken over our land..." Qiwowen Du waved his hand with grievance upon hearing this, "The Southern Emperor might have intended to withdraw those migrating tribes from the Northern Mongolian chaos, our Nomadic tribe itself is a complex mosaic, most of us bear Northern Mongolian blood, so it’s difficult to expel our own retreating people, hence this issue is somewhat vexing..."

Gu Changsheng’s heart trembled slightly upon hearing this; she did not expect Qiwowen Du to see through her intentions so clearly, and her phoenix eyes couldn’t help but become cautious...
