Tomb Raiding: My Family's Last Clan Chief is Little Brother

Chapter 2 A Rare Sight

Just as Zhang Wuxun placed the box beside him, he heard a commotion coming from not far away.

Zhang Wuxun sat up straight; the main storyline was about to begin.

A bullock cart slowly made its way down the slope, accompanied by five men, some thin and some strong, mostly tall, carrying large bundles on their backs.

The one with the youngest face and the most innocent look is probably Wu Xiaoxie, the protagonist of the incomplete scroll, nicknamed "Innocent," and known as "Little Third Master" in the underworld.

You could hear them laughing and talking even from a great distance.

The slope wasn't long; in just a few minutes, the five men followed the oxcart driver to the stream.

"Hey, Third Master, there's someone over there."

The strongest-looking man in the group spotted Zhang Wuxun, dressed in black overalls, huddled behind a haystack on the bank.

This man is Third Master's subordinate, named Da Kui. He's a coward; what a waste of his big size.

Wu Sanye glanced at him and saw that there was indeed a person, but his face was obscured by the hay and the upright backpack.

Wu Sanye gave him a wink, and Da Kui immediately understood. He scurried over and patted the man on the shoulder, saying, "Hey buddy, all alone? What are you doing?"

Zhang Wuxun lifted a slit in his eye and gave him a cool glance.

Before he could speak, Da Kui, who was peeking out at him, suddenly exclaimed, "Holy crap, it's just a little girl!"

Da Kui immediately put his hands together and bowed, "I'm sorry, sister, I was blind and saw it wrong."

"Damn it..." Zhang Wuxun's eyebrows twitched, and he stood up abruptly, shouting angrily, "Who the hell are you calling a little girl? Are you blind?"

Da Kui, who was half-squatting, was startled by Zhang Wuxun's sudden voice and movement, and fell backward on his butt. He stared blankly, pointing at Zhang Wuxun with one hand half-raised, and stammered, "You...you..."

Zhang Wuxun stared coldly at him, the tall man, over 1.8 meters, looking down at Da Kui with an extremely oppressive aura.

To be honest, although Zhang Wuxun was a bit pretty and had a bit of long hair, he didn't think he would ever be mistaken for a woman. It's just that Da Kui was really blind.

Seeing that something was wrong, Third Master Wu cursed under his breath and approached with a smile.

Just by looking at Zhang Wuxun's face, he knew why that simpleton Da Kui had mistaken this person for a girl.

His first impression of this person was that he was abrupt, both in his demeanor and the timing of his appearance.

She was a very young person, probably not even twenty years old, and a little over 1.8 meters tall. She was fair-skinned and pretty, but her eyes and brows gave off a pure and aloof sense of refinement.

The smile on Wu Sanye's lips faded slightly. He stared into the young man's eyes, trying to catch any hint of anger in his dark pupils, but found nothing.

This person looks angry, but in reality, there is no extra emotion in his eyes, only a faint indifference that is almost non-existent.

It was as if he was simply responding to Da Kui's words in a reasonable way, like... a performance.

Wu Sanye felt a chill run down his spine; he knew this man was definitely not a simple character.

However, he still couldn't determine which side this person was sent from, so he couldn't alert them; the act had to continue.

Da Kui's words offended people, so they were in the wrong. As Da Kui's employer, Master Wu still had to make a statement.

"Ahem, young man." Master Wu coughed to cover up his earlier lapse in composure, and said in a negotiating tone, "This was our fault. I'll have my men apologize to you, and we'll call it even, how about that?"

Is Zhang Wuxun the kind of person who won't let things go even when he's in the right? Well, he really is.

However, to complete his mission, he had to get close to Wu Xiaoxie. With that old fox, Master Wu, blocking his way, he definitely wouldn't even be able to get close to Wu Xiaoxie.

So, taking advantage of this opportunity, I'll curry favor with Master Wu, making future interactions easier.

Zhang Wuxun then smiled, the coldness on his face dissipating, and the surrounding atmosphere seemed to soften considerably with that smile.

"I'm not one to hold a grudge, so I'll let this matter go once I've apologized."

Master Wu knew that he probably had ulterior motives in getting close to them, so he decided to quit while he was ahead. Whether it was for the ancient tomb or something else, he wouldn't immediately break ties with him.

He turned his head and saw Da Kui still sitting on the ground dumbfounded. He kicked him and cursed, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and apologize to that young man."

Da Kui scrambled to his feet, glanced cautiously at Zhang Wuxun, and huffed and puffed as he apologized.

Zhang Wuxun waved his hand to indicate that he accepted.

The other three, who had been standing to the side, came over with smiles after seeing that the conflict had been resolved.

Panzi was talking to the old man pulling the oxcart, asking when the boat would arrive.

Wu Xiaoxie glanced at Zhang Wuxun, then at the cool-looking Zhang Qiling with his hood and expressionless face, and secretly clicked his tongue in amazement.

Goodness, he had always considered himself to be a handsome guy, even if he wasn't devastatingly good-looking. But today he really had his eyes opened. These two were stunningly beautiful and handsome. If they stood at the entrance of his Wushan Residence, they would bring in a lot of money. They would be much more effective than Wang Mengmeng.

Especially the one with the bright red hair, the more you look at her, the more beautiful she becomes, with her long, jet-black hair, it's easy to mistake her for someone else if you don't look closely.

As for Jun, forget about him. Although he's very handsome, he's aloof and doesn't utter a single word the whole way. He's a total silent type.

As Wu Xiaoxie was inwardly grumbling, he suddenly saw Yan smile at him.

Wu Xiaoxie was immediately stunned, thinking to himself, "Damn, what does this kid mean by suddenly smiling at me?"
While Wu Xiaoxie was observing them, Zhang Wuxun was also busy.

Wu Xiaoxie's appearance suggests he's a kid who hasn't experienced the harsh realities of life. He has a handsome face, fair skin, and a touch of childishness, with a well-proportioned frame. He looks to be a little over 1.8 meters tall and exudes a scholarly air, making him very approachable.

Zhang Wuxun smiled faintly. To be honest, Wu Xiaoxie in his innocent phase really did look naive.

His gaze shifted to the back, and he saw the mysterious person.

Actually, he was a little excited, because he was finally going to meet the legendary Zhang family patriarch!

This guy truly lives up to his reputation as the pinnacle of both combat prowess and looks in the notebook. Putting aside his combat strength for now, just his appearance alone makes him a spitting image of a cool and handsome man.

He wore a navy blue hooded sweatshirt, had fair skin and dark hair, and a tall and straight figure. He carried a black and gold ancient sword wrapped in black cloth on his back.

What attracted Zhang Wuxun the most were his eyes.

With her eyelids slightly drooping, her pale skin made her eyes appear exceptionally dark, like an ancient well, still and undisturbed, radiating an otherworldly indifference that seemed impenetrable to anything from the outside world.

Perhaps because Zhang Wuxun had been staring at them for too long, those eyes suddenly moved, lifting their eyelids to glance at Zhang Wuxun, their expression calm and indifferent, before lowering them again.

Zhang Wuxun appeared calm, but his heart was already secretly pounding with excitement.

The clan chief—alive!
