Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 482: Chapter 219: Xia City, Brothers’ Tacit Understanding_3

”You said the Lei Kui Golden Armor, right? There should be over a thousand of them now!”

Gulp......

Yue Feng’s response caused Luo Cheng to involuntarily swallow a mouthful of saliva, his heart reaching the peak of astonishment, suspecting Yue Feng might be bluffing to intimidate him.

However, no matter how he thought about it, Yue Feng had no motive for that!

Over a thousand people, what does that even mean?

The Beehive’s Earth-digging Realm only had about seven hundred people altogether!

The Great Xia’s Basic Strength above ten thousand pounds included over a thousand people, so how many Earth-digging Realm experts could they have?

Walking through the five-meter-wide city wall area into the interior, the look of amazement in Luo Cheng’s eyes never faded.

The land inside the city walls was entirely different from outside, seemingly treated in some special way, not only was the snow shallow, stepping on it even felt warm;

The avenue from the city gate to the valley was ten meters wide, planted with various species of trees Luo Cheng couldn’t identify, only recognizing the ice-laden trees, with one every thirty meters, all the way to the valley entrance.

Near the city gate, the land had no buildings, but as one approached the valley side, many buildings under construction were visible along the avenue, with various building materials planned to be used clearly placed.

After walking three kilometers and feeling deeply shocked, Luo Cheng finally raised his head to see the familiar valley.

But when he lowered his head, seeing the previously makeshift valley entrance now replaced by a massive iron gate, twenty-seven meters tall and twelve meters wide, more majestic than the city gate outside, his gaze became fixated, and his expression froze.

”So, do you still recognize this place?”

This son of Luo Ming, Yue Feng still had an impression from before.

Seeing Luo Cheng’s gaze intimidated by the valley’s iron gate, he chuckled softly, took the still-dazed Luo Cheng, and walked straight inside.

The city wall had been constructed for just over two months, with everything in the Outer City still being planned, and since the valley’s inside space was sufficient, many hadn’t moved outside, so the lack of people was inevitable.

On the other hand, the Great Xia Inner City, which was the valley, was bustling with activity.

The valley was packed with buildings, lit up from within, four main roads broad and bustling, flanked by furnaces, and people were dressed in various clothes, with teenagers playfully fooling around and children frolicking in groups......

Everything in the valley had changed from two years ago, instantly dazzling Luo Cheng, while also making him more acutely aware that returning to the Great Xia was the right decision.

Two months ago, from seeing certain things from Uncle Yu, he already sensed the Great Xia’s strength, but seeing everything tonight following Yue Feng, was truly a firsthand experience.

The Beehive couldn’t compare, not even ten of them, to what he saw.

”Father, Uncle He, Uncle Ping, Uncle Kang... I must work harder and cultivate to bring everyone back, all to the Great Xia side!”

Luo Cheng clenched his fists, his face full of determination.

As everything in the valley changed its form, Luo Cheng could only follow Yue Feng along the main road until they stopped at a silent three-story building.

”Follow me up!”

Following Yue Feng to the third floor, entering the splendid gilded hall, surrounded by cold beast sculptures and a golden beast chair on the high platform, a majestic pressure overwhelmed him, causing Luo Cheng’s gaze to lower immediately.

That chair must be where the leader Xia Hong sits!

In just two years, how did that young leader develop the Great Xia to this extent!

Luo Cheng’s mind flashed back to his memories of Xia Hong two years ago, his heart filled with curiosity and anticipation.

”What’s so urgent that you need to see me?”

Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded from above the hall, making Luo Cheng involuntarily glance up, seeing that the person in black on the high platform wasn’t Xia Hong, his expression paused in surprise.

If he remembered correctly, that person seemed to be Xia Chuan, the one who was kicked by Li Hu two years ago, Xia Hong’s brother.

Luo Cheng also had some impression of Xia Chuan.

Seeing Xia Chuan appear, Yue Feng immediately bowed, then took out the letter in his chest and the Beast Skin Roll given by Luo Ming.

”Greetings, Minister, this is a letter from Hong Yu sent from the Beehive.”

Hearing the words ”Hong Yu,” Xia Chuan’s expression immediately changed, almost before Luo Cheng could see it, he had already moved in front of Yue Feng, taking the letter directly to read it.

Uncle Yu’s status in Great Xia shouldn’t be low.

Xia Chuan’s reaction, falling into Luo Cheng’s eyes, naturally led him to this conclusion.

As Xia Chuan read Xia Hong’s letter, his expression went from initial excitement to calmness, followed by a glimmer of light in his eyes, with an expression showing interest.

After a long time, Xia Chuan finished reading the letter, the light still in his eyes, looked down at Luo Cheng, clapping his hands, and instructed outside:

”Someone, take this boy to the Camp Supply Department for registration!”

Immediately, someone entered from outside the hall, leading Luo Cheng away.

”Yue Feng, go notify the Six Department Directors and all the Middle-level Hunting Team Captains in the valley to come here at first light for a meeting!”

Luo Cheng, who hadn’t left the hall, felt a slight stir in his heart at Xia Chuan’s words, growing more curious about Uncle Yu’s identity.

The Beast Skin Roll given to Yue Feng by his father contained specific locations of the Beehive’s underground space and defensive maps for thirty-two passages.

Being young didn’t mean knowing less.

Luo Cheng understood what his father was doing, but he was curious why Uncle Yu’s letter had such a strong impact, capable of prompting Xia Chuan to personally arrange his situation and immediately call a meeting of all Great Xia members.

What transpired inside the hall was beyond Luo Cheng’s awareness as he was led away.

At dawn, the main hall was brightly lit, and everyone Yue Feng had notified had arrived one by one.

In the hall, seats lined both sides in an orderly manner.

Yuwen Dao, Luo Yuan, Yuan Cheng, Shi Ping, Qiu Peng, Mu Dong, Cheng Feng, Bai Yingdong, Zhu Yuan—the nine Six Department Directors and Deputy Directors sat in the front row;

While Hong Guang, Zhu Ling, Zhao Long, Meng Yi, Zhao Hu, Zhao Bao, Huang Yong... seventeen Middle-level Hunting Team Captains, were seated at the back;

Yue Feng was the last to enter the hall, bowing and saying, ”Minister, there are still five hunting teams stationed in Jing Valley and Wuyuan, their captains couldn’t come, so these are all who could come!”

Xia Chuan stood below the high platform, nodding for Yue Feng to sit first, then handed the letter and Beast Skin Roll to Yuwen Dao, indicating he should read and pass them down.

Yuwen Dao took the letter, recognizing the handwriting and his expression immediately changed, as he read the contents, then saw the Beast Skin Roll, his expression grew more excited, handing it to Luo Yuan.

Luo Yuan’s reaction mirrored his as he read it and passed it to the next person, soon everyone in the hall grew excited.

”The Beehive’s defensive map, why wait?”

”Three at Cold Resistance Level, the strongest being only Eight鬃, over thirty thousand people, just seven hundred Earth-digging Realm, Minister, why wait?”

”I’ve long disliked that group, Minister, let’s attack directly!”

”The leader has infiltrated for over two months, what’s there to fear?”

.........

Hearing the lively discussions in the hall, mostly recommending bringing troops and attacking the Beehive, Xia Chuan shook his head with a smile.

Their reactions were predictable!

In truth, given Great Xia’s current strength, as described in Xia Hong’s letter, wiping out the Beehive would indeed be effortless.

”The letter from the leader, it seems you haven’t fully understood it yet!”

Xia Chuan interrupted the discussions, a hint of pride on his face, speaking slowly, ”A mere Beehive is nothing; our true aim is the twelve families of Longyou and the entire Pingxi Plain!”

Everyone in the hall was taken aback.

”If Longyou were impenetrable, reaching into Pingxi Plain would not be simple, but since they created their problems, they can’t blame us!”

Xia Hong’s letter, others might need to spend time understanding it.

But Xia Chuan was different.

Even if the letter didn’t explicitly state it, Xia Chuan could grasp Xia Hong’s broader plans, a unique understanding between brothers.

”Weren’t Lu Sheng and the others killed by Yue Feng? Just perfect......”

Xia Chuan’s expression flickered, inquiring Yue Feng and, upon receiving the answer, began meticulous planning.
