Chinese did not go to Aksum to trade.
Aksum began a long slow decline after the 7th century due partly to Islamic groups contesting trade routes. Eventually Aksum was cut off from its principal markets in Alexandria, Byzantium and Southern Europe and its trade share was captured by Arab traders of the era.

The main factors that led to the fall of the Aksum in the seventh century were climate change and the obstruction of international trade routes around the Red Sea brought on by the growing supremacy of the Muslims in Ethiopia.
