Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1234: Chapter 411: Mu Longhe’s Hope, Departure and New Discovery (Part 2)

“Brother Mu, don’t worry too much. Let me show you two things first!”

Xiang Fuhai did not explain, but signaled to another person who had just walked out of the Ministry Building with him.

The man was dressed in yellow attire, holding a silver long staff, and carrying two boxes on his back. Upon receiving Xiang Fuhai’s signal, he quickly took down the boxes and walked up to Mu Longhe, then opened them one by one to display their contents.

Mu Longhe’s expression suddenly became complicated upon seeing the contents of the boxes.

The box on the left contained two silver longswords, with grips one green and one red, which were precisely his Green and Red Double-edged Sword. The box on the right was full of black-glowing solid ice, in which were clearly his severed arms.

Mu Longhe quickly realized something, and the complexity on his face turned into a trace of anticipation. He then suddenly noticed something and looked up at the young man opening the boxes in front of him, his pupils shrinking dramatically.

“Junior Xiang Wentian, pays respects to Senior Mu!”

This yellow-clad youth was none other than Xiang Fuhai’s grandson, Xiang Wentian.

Mu Longhe stared at Xiang Wentian’s arms for a while, the shock in his eyes gradually disappearing, replaced by a face full of joy and excitement.

“You…”

Earlier this May, after the Dajue Temple turmoil ended, the Six Towns divided the Xiang Family’s treasury in Bashang City. At that time, a young member of the Xiang Family couldn’t bear it and stood up to reason with the Six Towns Lords. His words inadvertently offended Yang Zhun, and he was directly slain by Beishuo Town Chief Yang Fa.

That young person was none other than Xiang Wentian standing before him.

Mu Longhe was present at the time and was very clear about why Yang Fa acted so harshly. It was precisely because Xiang Wentian had top-grade Battle Body Qualification, in his early forties, with the strength of 48 Manes. At that time among the remaining Xiang Family descendants, whether in terms of strength or talent, Xiang Wentian was unparalleled. Yang Fa’s intention was clearly to completely abolish the Xiang Family.

However, right now, Xiang Wentian not only had both arms intact, but his talent had not been affected in the slightest. Mu Longhe even noticed that his strength had already reached 49 Manes, it had increased…

Mu Longhe suddenly snapped back to reality, his eyes quickly turning to Xiang Fuhai, with both inquiry and anticipation in his pupils.

“Hahaha, Brother Mu, although my status in Great Xia is not prominent, it’s not to the extent where I would be ordered to escort prisoners. The Lord specifically sent me with Wentian to accompany you back to Xia City. Do you still not understand what this means?”

Mu Longhe’s body trembled slightly, the joy on his face quickly receding, and he directly fell into silence.

Xia Hong was clearly using Xiang Wentian on purpose to show him that Great Xia had the capability to reattach severed limbs. The purpose of sending Xiang Fuhai to escort him this time was not difficult to guess.

“Brother Mu, Duan Hong is not a wise lord, surely you know that. The end of Bashang Town is enough to show that the Northern Three Towns Lords are not people who can achieve great things. Today’s battle at Hongmen, the Six Towns lost face completely; not a single town in Moao South Slope can match Lord Xia Hong. The Six Towns basically have no chance to unite a second time. Great Xia is already the de facto ruler; Brother Mu, what is there to hesitate about?”

Seeing Mu Longhe fall into silence, Xiang Fuhai immediately began to persuade him, but after speaking in length, he still didn’t see any response from the other party.

He thought for a moment with his head down, then quickly reacted.

“Brother Mu, you are worried that the Mu Family is still in Chui Mountain. If you defect to Great Xia now, your Mu Family descendants will be targeted by Duan Hong, right?”

For this issue, it almost didn’t require Mu Longhe to give an answer. Given Duan Hong’s narrow-mindedness and vindictive nature, if he knew that Mu Longhe had defected to Xia Hong’s side, it was certain that he would target the Mu Family.

This problem, however, is quite easy to solve!

Seeing the struggle and hesitation on Mu Longhe’s face, Xiang Fuhai showed a smile but didn’t rush to say anything. Watching the Longyuan Army all leave the city, he said with a smile, “Let’s head out first! There are only more than two hours left until dawn, and I’ll slowly discuss this with Brother Mu on the road.”

As he spoke, Xiang Liang and four Silver Order Prison Wardens immediately went ahead to lead the way. Once Mu Longhe moved, Xiang Fuhai quickly followed alongside him, clearly planning to continue persuading him on the journey.

In the past, Xiang Fuhai would certainly not have been so eager to help Xia Hong persuade Mu Longhe to join Great Xia. But times have changed.

His mindset has obviously undergone a significant change now.

Of course, the reasons behind it were only clear to Xiang Fuhai himself.

Xiang Fuhai watched his grandson walk forward, a smile evident on his face.

His injuries had not yet fully healed.

He had taken three Holy Vein Pills, and currently, although he had regained part of his Xianyang Level cultivation, his strength was still less than half of what it had been before.

Truth be told, five days ago, when he took the three Holy Vein Pills that Xia Hong gave him, recovering half of his cultivation, his heart was at most somewhat tempted, but the change was not as significant as it is now.

However, afterward, when Xia Chuan reattached his grandson Xiang Wentian’s arms in front of him, Xiang Fuhai abandoned all other thoughts.

From that moment on, he not only completely accepted the obliteration of Bashang Town but also made the final decision in his heart, which was to start integrating into Great Xia and become a formal member of it.

With Bashang’s direct line nearly wiped out, the entire town was left with just over five hundred Cold Resistance Level people, and more importantly, he was already quite old and couldn’t possibly have the energy to rebuild Bashang.

More importantly, after staying in Xia City for more than four months, and as he encountered more and more things, he increasingly believed that as long as Great Xia continued to develop steadily, it was only a matter of time before they unified the Moao South Slope Territory.
