Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 794: Chapter 315: New Policies for Long Mountain, Cold Apple Tree and the Silver Mine

Only the third child, Li Xuandu, was ten years older than her and willing to take care of her. Since childhood, he took her everywhere around Long Mountain, so among the four siblings, their personalities were the most alike, and their bond was the strongest.

Now that Li Xuandu was leaving Longyou, Li Xuanling felt reluctant, which was perfectly normal.

Li Xuandu, who had already walked far away, immediately stopped in his tracks upon hearing “third brother,” but he didn’t turn back. He simply laughed and said:

“Xuanling, the downfall of the Li Family is their own doing, it has nothing to do with you. Leader Xia is a capable person. If you follow him, your life will definitely get better and better. In ten years, third brother will definitely come back, to see you and second uncle!”

This is generally the difference between having feelings and not having feelings.

At this moment in Li Xuandu’s heart, even though he still resented Xia Hong, he knew he was powerless to change anything, so he chose to give blessings instead, and even wanted to lessen Li Xuanling’s sense of guilt as much as possible.

Watching Li Xuandu walk further and further away, his figure quickly blurred, and Li Xuanling was already sobbing uncontrollably.

She suddenly thought of something, turned abruptly to look behind her, and pleaded with a tearful voice, “Xia Hong, I know you’re here too. I beg you, spare my third brother, let him stay in Longyou, I beg you…”

Li Xuanling’s cries and pleas did not eventually elicit a response from Xia Hong.

Not until Li Xuandu completely disappeared did Xia Hong’s voice come from behind.

“Get up! You know very well that I can’t keep them.”

Li Xuanling had stopped crying, was completely limp on the ground, watching Xia Hong slowly approach from behind, her eyes full of hatred.

“Don’t look at me like that. Based on what those two just said, if I chased after them and killed them, it wouldn’t be too much, right?”

Xia Hong suddenly quipped, and seeing Li Tiancheng and Li Xuanling’s expressions freeze, he laughed and continued, “If they can really find Li Tianhua, perhaps your Longshan Li Family can make a comeback. I gave you the opportunity; you shouldn’t hate me, you should thank me instead.”

“Arrogant!”

Li Xuanling couldn’t help but scold, knowing how intelligent she is, she could naturally hear the implication in Xia Hong’s words; he was clearly saying that even if Li Xuandu and the others found Li Tianhua, it would be useless.

Li Tiancheng, on the other side, didn’t speak, he just bowed slightly and said:

“Leader Xia, there’s no need for this. You’ve married Xuanling, so even if big brother comes back, I suppose he will eventually accept you as his son-in-law.”

Eventually…

Meaning, Li Tianhua still needs to do something before acknowledging it!

Xia Hong shook his head, saying nothing more, not picking at Li Tiancheng’s words.

Li Tianhua left Longyou three years ago, and he is already ninety-eight now. If he had reached the Xianyang Level with greatly increased longevity, he would have returned to Long Mountain long ago; why wait until now?

So, he’s either dead or hasn’t made the breakthrough yet.

Of these two possibilities, he fears neither.

This is the reason he dared to let Li Xuanyan and Li Xuandu go.

“Alright, I came today to see you two off and see those two Cold Apple Trees, and the locations of those two silver mines!”

Xia Hong came today not to supervise the two of them.

With the extended family the Li Family has, and considering people like Meng Ying, Zhou Yuan, Jiang Ping, Li Tiancheng and Li Xuanling couldn’t possibly run away with Li Xuanyan and Li Xuandu.

If the two of them left, these people would struggle to make a living in Great Xia, not to mention that Xia Hong might take it out on them.

He came today to inspect the most important assets of Long Mountain.

The two Cold Apple Trees and the two unexplored Silver Ore Veins!
