Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 347: Chapter 179: 3 Tigers Fall, Witnessing and Floral Heart [Happy New Year] _2

”These beasts, they have completely lost people’s hearts. When Lord Yu Wen first captured that person, he turned against us as soon as he heard that we intended to attack the Three Tigers Camp.

Not only did that person tell us the residences of the three leaders, but he also said that the only ones truly supporting those three leaders inside the camp were just over twenty in the Earth-digging Realm along with over a hundred of their family members. Almost everyone else held grudges against them. As long as we could deal with the few at the top, the rest would join us in an uprising to attack them together...”

Xia Chuan listened with a frown, and by the time he heard the whole story, his gaze towards the seventeen people on the ground had become frigid.

It seems that the previous information gathered was very likely true.

This Three Tigers Camp truly is a cancer in the Five Ape Mountain area.

Zhu Ling continued, ”These beasts specifically built a large prison at the camp to detain the family members of the Earth-digging Realm, and some disobedient people, using these means to threaten others to become slave laborers. If anyone causes trouble, they cripple their family members, using them as bait during hunts.

That’s for those with some use; for ordinary people without value, their fate was even worse. Men were beaten or killed at will, while women were wantonly violated. Not only in that prison but the whole camp, it had turned into a demonic lair.

There were twenty-three of them in total. Five were killed last night, one escaped, and when the remaining seventeen were captured alive, those people almost tore these seventeen apart if it weren’t for the lord stopping them, saying to take them back to the camp and hand them over to the Lord for punishment, they would certainly not be alive now.

Their families, totaling over a hundred people, were killed directly by the remaining people without the need for us to act.”

...

Although Zhu Ling didn’t elaborate much, just listening, Xia Chuan could feel how heinous the crimes of the Three Tigers Camp were.

”Lord, I am Liu Erhu. If my guess is correct, you must be the leader of the Great Xia Camp, right?”

Just as Xia Chuan’s gaze became extremely cold, the leader of the group kneeling on the ground actually spoke up to him actively.

Unexpectedly, Liu Erhu’s voice was quite firm, with an air of equality, showing not the slightest sense of a prisoner’s awareness.

Zhu Ling spoke vaguely earlier, and the other party only heard of his position as a minister, thinking he was the leader.

Seated on the chair, Xia Chuan turned his head to look at Liu Erhu without explaining, merely watching him quietly to see what he intended to say next.

Receiving no response, Liu Erhu’s expression tightened slightly, but he quickly adjusted his mindset, speaking with confidence, ”Lord, we did not know of your camp’s strength previously, thus our offense. I hope the lord will forgive us...”

Despite the plea for forgiveness, his words bore not a trace of apology.

Seeing that he was clearly setting the stage for his subsequent words, Xia Chuan did not interrupt but instead nodded slightly, seemingly encouraging him to continue.

Noticing this, a hint of joy appeared on Liu Erhu’s face as he continued, ”The Great Xia Camp must be in need of people right now. Erhu is willing to lead the brothers to join, and from now on, we shall all follow the lord’s lead!”

”Sanhu is also willing to join.”

”I am also willing to join your camp!”

”I am willing too.”

...

Watching as the other sixteen also spoke up one after another, requesting to join the Great Xia Camp, Xia Chuan lowered his head and did not say a word, instead turning to look at Zhu Ling:

”You’ve killed five and one escaped, was it that great tiger?”

In the Three Tigers Camp, Erhu and Sanhu are here, only the great tiger is missing.

Seeing Xia Chuan had guessed it, Zhu Ling wasn’t surprised and nodded, saying, ”That Liu Dahu, even though he started using Beast Blood, was still no match for the Lord Chief, only he had a very powerful stick of unknown material, highly elastic yet extremely hard, it could even deflect the Lord Chief’s sword, and in the end, he managed to escape.”

He was no match for Yuwen Dao, only possessing a formidable weapon.

Upon hearing this, Xia Chuan’s expression relaxed considerably, fearing only Liu Dahu’s strength was too great, ultimately disrupting the elder brother’s cultivation.

”We have too few people, and there are still over two thousand people at the other camp. The lord worried that migrating them all at once would be unsafe, hence letting me bring this batch back first to report to the Minister, and then arrange manpower to safely migrate that batch together.”

Over two thousand people, with a ten or so kilometer distance, relying on Yuwen Dao’s thirty-odd men wasn’t very safe. Moreover, with Liu Dahu on the loose, if he secretly played dirty tricks, the situation could get worse.

”That Liu Dahu has deep feelings for these two brothers and will likely try to rescue them. During our return trip, the lord even escorted us for a while, but unfortunately, the other party never took the bait.”

Leaving evil unchecked leads to endless troubles.

Evidently, Yuwen Dao understood this principle too.

It’s just that this Liu Dahu seems exceedingly cunning, never having taken the bait.

Xia Chuan glanced at the seventeen people on the ground, suddenly thought of something, and asked, ”By the way, what’s the situation with the Xuanwu Team?”

Hong Guang must have been rescued, but based on last night’s report from Qiu Peng, Yuwen Dao was so angry, something must have happened.

Upon this question from Xia Chuan, Zhu Ling’s expression instantly became grave.

”Tian Yu and Liu Zhuang died, Hong Guang and four others were tortured by them all night, suffering severe injuries, I brought them back, and they are recovering now.”
