Chapter 73: Chapter 71 Compensation?_2
The crowd turned, and there was Patriarch Chen Xiao, striding over.
“Patriarch, do you not understand the situation yet...”
Unexpectedly, as soon as he said that, Elder Chen Yun hurried over to explain.
“Shut up!”@@@@
Interrupting, Chen Xiao approached Zhang Xuan, his face revealing a broad smile, “This young friend, I am the head of the Chen Clan, Chen Xiao! Anything related to this horse training field, I have the final say.”
By this time, he had completely understood what was going on. Far from being angry, his eyes were filled with great excitement.
Previously, he was annoyed that all the horses in the stables had been lured away, and he was determined to teach the Horse Trainer a lesson. Now, his thoughts had completely changed!
Subduing the entire stables in less than two hours... What kind of ability was that?
Not to mention Baiyan City, there was no one in the entire dynasty who could do it! Such a talented genius, it was definitely better to try to establish good relations with him than to make an enemy.
So, when he saw Elder Chen Yun looking for trouble and demanding compensation from the other party, he was frightened and couldn’t help but rush over directly.
“I am Zhang Xuan, I have seen the Patriarch Chen!”
Not understanding his intentions, Zhang Xuan looked over somewhat confusedly, “What do you mean by the righteousness you just mentioned?”
So, I’ve tamed all your horses, and not only is it not a fault, but it’s also a good deed?
Why are all the people I meet lately so strange?
“It means exactly what it sounds like!”
Patriarch Xiao smiled, “If it were someone else who had tamed the horses and refused to return them, using it as a threat, wouldn’t we likewise be helpless?”
Elder Chen Yun’s face changed, “Right!”
The Patriarch is right, taming all their horses is like holding the lifeline of the Chen Clan. If one really wanted to leverage that, they could demand compensation starting at least a million.
Yet this young man not only lacks this idea but has also been very polite in apologizing, very sincerely admitting his own mistakes... This alone shows that he is truly a good person.
“It’s not mine to begin with, to demand it forcefully would be extortion!” To think he was considering this, Zhang Xuan shook his head.
Although he was poor now, a million Origin Currency was nothing; if he really wanted to earn it, it would be simple. There was no need to be so unscrupulous.
“Well said!”
Admiration filled Chen Xiao’s eyes, “Having the initiative yet willing to submit, competent yet humble and courteous, that’s why I said Zhang Xuan, you have shown great righteousness!”
Not to mention mastering such formidable Horse Taming Techniques, even someone of Zhou Qun’s level would be proud and indifferent to commands from clan leaders like his, often taking a long time to invite whenever there was a need to tame a Wild Horse.
Despite having unparalleled Horse Taming Techniques, he still managed to stay modest and low-profile, and just for this, he was worthy of admiration.
“This...”
Chen Xiao also felt a headache coming on, but he knew that the Chen household would definitely run into trouble if the issue wasn’t resolved, so he steeled himself, “I’ll give it a try!”
After saying that, he stepped forward and looked at Zhou Qun and the others, “Everyone here is a skilled Horse Trainer, I hope you can take these 28 Thousand-li horses back. As long as you can calm them down, my Chen Estate will surely be grateful...”
The main reason why these 3,000 majestic horses had broken out was that these 28 had completely submitted to the authority of Elder Zhang.
Capture the ringleaders first, to control the rest should not be difficult.
“Alright!”
Zhou Qun and the others nodded, with solemn expressions they approached the Scarlet horses, “We’ll take one each...”
More than a dozen Horse Trainers carefully approached a Thousand-li horse each, but before they could get close, the horses simultaneously raised their hooves...
The next moment, everyone was sent flying, landing in a heap on the ground, their faces twisted with the bitterness of having failed, some wanting to cry.
As Horse Trainers... if they had been beaten because they couldn’t tame them, that would be one thing, but now they hadn’t even gotten close and were already kicked away, it was a particularly hard pill to swallow.
The key was... if these horses were always uncontrollable, that would be another matter, but after kicking them, they immediately ran to the side of Elder Zhang, acting like obedient dogs...
“I really don’t know what to do...”
Clearly, he hadn’t anticipated that simply trying to control them would provoke such a response, Patriarch Chen Xiao looked at Zhang Xuan with helpless eyes, “Elder Zhang, they only listen to you, and only you can solve this. Actually, you are now an honorary elder of our Chen household, and if they stay well-behaved in the stables, they are still considered to be with you, as your pets...”
Whoosh!
Before he could finish speaking, everyone heard the sound of galloping horses, and Patriarch Chen Xiao looked up in haste, only to see the group of horses that had been so determined to follow Zhang Xuan were now, as if assured of something, excitedly hopping and running back to the field.
“Why did they suddenly scatter?”
Elder Chen Yun was flabbergasted.
Just now, no matter how much they pleaded, the horses wouldn’t listen and even kicked Zhou Qun and the others flying. Why did they suddenly leave now?
“This...”
Patriarch Chen Xiao realized what had happened, his eyes went wide as he quivered, “Could it be... because I said Elder Zhang was our honorary elder, being in the stables would still be considered following him...”
“It seems that’s the reason...”
Everyone turned their gaze back to the youth not far away, rendered completely speechless.
Especially Zhou Qun and the rest, tears welled up uncontrollably.
All we wanted was to take you to the stables, yet you kicked us so harshly. And now, just hearing that the stables would still be with Zhang Xuan, you trot back without a second thought...
All of us are Horse Trainers, yet why is there such a big difference?
(Although it hasn’t reached 450, I, Lao Ya, still decided to update with a long chapter!)
