Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1140: Chapter 391: Bargaining, Entrances and Hype, Clowns and Expulsion (Part 4)

”With 700 taels, we can purchase Spirit Pills required to break through the Cold Resistance Level, which are more effective than those from the Northern Three Towns. What more could we ask for?”

......

Qiu Peng heard this and his smile grew wider. He suddenly changed the topic, saying, ”Let’s put aside the rest for now. Speaking of the Beishuo’s Blood Fungus Pill, I personally tested it before and found it inferior to Wuchuan’s Red Blood Pill and Jin Mountain’s Blood Coagulation Pill. Compared to our Great Xia’s Blood Spirit Pill, it’s not even worth garbage.

Such low-grade Spirit Pills are considered treasures by the people of Beishuo, yet they dare to sell them at the exorbitant price of 1300 taels. This shows that the Yang Family of Beishuo holds the Cold Resistance Level of their village-level camps in contempt, focusing solely on exploiting them for profit. Such petty acts! We of Great Xia are ashamed to coexist with Beishuo on the Moao South Slope!”

Thud...

As Qiu Peng finished speaking, the entire floor fell silent instantly.

This silence was even more pronounced than before. Everyone looked up at Qiu Peng, their expressions unclear, but their eyes clearly filled with astonishment and confusion.

The effect of the Blood Fungus Pill is indeed the weakest among the three Dan Medicines used to break through the Cold Resistance Level, but it’s not so bad as to be considered garbage.

As for Qiu Peng’s second statement, that the Yang Family of Beishuo disregards the Cold Resistance Level of their village-level camps, caring only for profit and exploitation, there really is nothing wrong with that. People felt somewhat vindicated hearing it.

But the truth is, it’s not just the Yang Family of Beishuo that treats them this way!

The Shangguan Family of Jin Mountain, the Qin Family of Wuchuan, the Cao Family of Yangqu...

Ever since the chaos at Dajue Temple, when the Eight Towns directly conscripted the Cold Resistance Level from various villages to meet their doom, it was apparent.

In the Moao Eight Towns, who actually regards the Cold Resistance Level of their village-level camps as human?

Why did Qiu Peng specifically single out the Yang Family of Beishuo?

And that final statement, that Great Xia is ashamed to coexist with Beishuo on the Moao South Slope, seemed a little too deliberate.

Soon, everyone understood!

”A camp that hasn’t even been established for ten years, from a crude and lowly place, yet it brazenly dares to criticize Beishuo and disgrace the Yang Family. Nine years ago, I should’ve killed you!”

Behind Han Peng’s group, Yang Ning finally couldn’t hold back and stepped out.

He directly threw off his black robe and removed his mask.

From the moment Qiu Peng’s trio appeared, he vaguely sensed that both he and Li Hu had been exposed. When Qiu Peng then awkwardly shifted the topic to the Blood Fungus Pill, using it to slander and defame the Yang Family, how could they not understand that it was clearly directed at them?

Since they were already exposed, he saw no need to continue hiding.

Moreover, the words Qiu Peng spoke had already crossed his line.

He himself is a descendant of the Yang Family; how could he stand by and watch outsiders defame Beishuo and slander the Yang Family?

Li Hu also realized what was happening. He followed Yang Ning’s lead in removing his black robe and mask, deliberately raising his voice, and sneered at Qiu Peng and his companions, ”In over nine years, your Great Xia grew from a small camp with just over a hundred people to a town-level camp. If not for deceitful abilities, I’d start writing my name backward. Deceiving others and winning over people’s hearts, you’re no different from Dajue Temple!”

These two still have some wits but unfortunately misunderstood the situation.

Yang Ning and Li Hu both seemed to believe they would die today and wanted to expose the fact that Great Xia had been established for less than ten years, hoping the people present would spread this information.

How could Qiu Peng not see through their intentions?

Before coming downstairs to meet Yang and Li, Qiu Peng had thought a lot. He had prepared three or four ways to humiliate and retaliate against them.

But upon truly facing them, his mindset changed completely.

He instantly understood why Minister Xia regarded these two with such disdain.

With a broader perspective, these mere jesters indeed didn’t inspire any hatred.

”Less than ten years of existence?”

”Great Xia has only been developing for a bit over nine years?”

”This... this... how can it be possible?”

”Nine years, how old would Lord Xia Hong be this year?”

”No one knows!”

”I have relatives in Muyin City, and they said that the Director of the Great Xia Military Department, Yuwen Dao, might not even be thirty years old yet.”

”Gulp...”

”Now that you mention it, Summer Minister, Director Qiu, Director Yuan, Guardian Lin, all the high-ranking officials currently emerging in Hongmen from Great Xia seem quite young!”

”Xianyang Level Cultivation can be explained by their cultivation, but if all these people only have Cold Resistance Level Cultivation, then their appearance basically reflects their real age?”

”This...”

......

Yang Ning and Li Hu were instantly dumbstruck.

The reactions of those around them were entirely different from what they had anticipated.

Deceitful Monsters, why was no one concerned about them?

Great Xia was related to the Deceitful Monsters!

How could they have developed from a small camp to a town-level camp in just over nine years?

”Two jesters, what status do you hold? If these words had come from Yang Zhun or Yang Fa, maybe some fools would believe it, but with your pitiful strength, you think you can frame and slander Great Xia Town?”

Lin Kai couldn’t help but sneer.

Qiu Peng stood aside, shaking his head without saying a word;

While on the other side, Yuan Cheng, who had the worst temper, was already aflame with anger upon hearing the slander against Great Xia. Once Lin Kai finished speaking, he released his whole aura and began walking slowly toward the two.

”Originally, we just intended to expel you, but you two scoundrels dared to slander us by associating with the Deceitful Monsters. It seems we have to make you suffer a bit!”

Boom...

Yuan Cheng’s body shot forward, crashing through the crowd and instantly landing in front of Yang Ning and Li Hu.

The rule at Treasure Tower prohibits carrying weapons, which applies to everyone equally, so not only Yang Ning and Li Hu but Yuan Cheng as well.

Even though Yuan Cheng wasn’t carrying any weapons, his body moved like a massive steel block with the momentum of ten thousand pounds, stirring the airflow within the floor. Furthermore, his palms emitted a faint golden light as they slammed down forcefully on Yang Ning and Li Hu from both sides.

Bang...
