Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 898: Chapter 340: Seclusion, Growing Yu Generation, Family Banquet, Rapid Development

But unexpectedly, at this very moment, the solemn and sacred Star-picking Hall suddenly echoed with the tender voices of two children.

“Ehh… Dad… find… play…”

“Star… platform… find dad… play…”

The child’s voice came from directly beneath the Star-picking Platform. It was clear that both children were still at the age of learning to speak. Although their speech was not very clear, the meaning was expressed unmistakably.

“Your Highnesses, you can’t go there now, the Lord is in seclusion for cultivation!”

“Go… want… dad…”

“Go… I want to too…”

“Sister Han Yue, today we’re holding a family feast to celebrate the birthdays of their Highnesses and Young Master Yu Ning. The Lord should be coming out of seclusion soon, right?”

“Still, you can’t disturb him now. It’s not even dark yet! The Star-picking Platform isn’t covered; your Highnesses can’t go there.”

“Oh right! How dangerous, I almost forgot.”

“Hurry and take their Highnesses back! It’s almost night, they should rest.”

“Understood.”

“Waa waa waa…”

……

Clearly, the conversation had broken down.

Directly beneath the Star-picking Platform, in the main hall of the great hall, two toddlers who had just learned to walk were struggling in the arms of Han Yue and Han Shuang, reaching out their little chubby hands, constantly grasping towards the staircase of the Star-picking Platform.

The one on the left wore a white little dress, with two exquisite red Simurghs embroidered at the hem. The water-blue Holy Pattern on her brow glowed brilliantly in the firelight; the one on the right wore a black and gold little robe, rich in color and similar to Xia Hong’s attire. His brow had a gold-red Holy Pattern, reflecting the firelight, revealing inner flowing lava, incredibly mystical.

Both little children had just turned one year old, inherently endearing in their delicate and jade-like appearance, coupled with luxurious attire, meticulously tended to by Han Shuang and the maids that anyone who saw them couldn’t help but adore them.

Especially now, both wanted to find their father and did not want to be carried away by Han Yue, Han Shuang, and the other maids. Reaching out their chubby little hands to the entrance of the Star-picking Platform, they cried inconsolably, evoking even more pity.

Nevertheless, Han Yue and Han Shuang could not truly let them go, and could only grit their teeth and carry them out of the hall.

But it could be seen that the continuous struggling and crying of the two toddlers made the steps of Han Yue and Han Shuang slightly staggering.

“The strength of the eldest has become increasingly great. My basic strength is nearly 28,000, yet sometimes she can take me by surprise and escape.”

Carrying Xia Yusheng, Han Shuang heard her sister’s words and responded with a wry smile, “We were alright. The last time Nong Ying carried the Second Prince, she wasn’t paying attention and he escaped. As a result, the Second Prince fell to the ground, and the Lady was very angry, nearly banishing her from the Star-picking Hall.”

Han Yue clearly knew about this too, her face showing a trace of post-fear, looking at Xia Yuyao, who was crying and fussing in her arms, she smiled wryly, “Their Highnesses haven’t started cultivation, yet two months ago, just after weaning, they began eating supplementary foods made of beast meat and red crystal fruit, and their strength increased by over a hundred catty. At this rate, before they start cultivation at six, they could break through to the Earth-digging Realm.”

Upon hearing this, Han Shuang and a group of maids nodded slightly, then looked at the crying Xia Yuyao and Xia Yusheng, their faces showing both shock and helplessness.

Although Xia Yuyao and Xia Yusheng had turned one, based on what the Lord verbally said at their birth, to step out of the Star-picking Hall, they could only rely on themselves. Now they were afraid of even the high edges of the porches, let alone the thirty-meter suspended ladder connecting the Star-picking Hall and the main building — they didn’t dare approach it.

So, until now, neither has stepped out of the Star-picking Hall at all.

Never having gone out, naturally meant no contact with those in the camp. Therefore, aside from their special traits known only to the Lord, the Lady, the Minister’s family, and Li Tiancheng their grandfather, perhaps only these ten or so maids in the entire Great Xia were aware of their unusual features.

Putting aside the mysterious aspects of them, just their innate basic strength of five thousand catty at birth was enough to crush all the talents in Great Xia. Two months ago, they had just started eating supplementary food, without needing cultivation, their strength automatically began to increase. If this got out, those geniuses in the Martial Arts Pavilion, who were busy breaking records day in and day out, would probably go crazy.

“The Lord and the Lady are not ordinary people, and their Highnesses, as their offspring, naturally possess talents far beyond common people. Furthermore, today’s Great Xia is different from before; their Highnesses’ platforms are getting higher and higher, in the future…”

“Eh, Your Highnesses, why have you stopped fussing?”

Han Yue’s thoughts were suddenly interrupted by her sister. Lowering her head, she realized that Xia Yuyao in her arms and Xia Yusheng in her sister’s arms had suddenly stopped crying and quieted down.

“Giggling…”

“Dad… daddy… is here…”

Not only had he quieted down, but Xia Yusheng also started laughing. Then Xia Yuyao’s words immediately made all the maids turn their heads and look behind them.

“Greetings to the Lord!”

It turned out that while they were holding the two young Highnesses, they had unconsciously reached the entrance of the main hall. Behind them, the entrance to the Star-picking Platform had quietly opened at some point. Xia Hong now stood in the middle of the great hall, making funny faces at the two little ones who were facing him.

“Rise; the family feast will be held right here in the main hall. You can start the preparations now and notify Xia Chuan after nightfall.”

“Understood!”

Han Yue nodded and cupped her fists, preparing to leave the hall, only to realize she was still holding Xia Yuyao. After receiving Xia Hong’s signal, she and her sister released their grips together.
