Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 778: Chapter 310: The Leader Is Still the Best, The Consequences of Losing the Bet

Making the same mistake twice, you are no different from the Li family’s fools you curse from your own mouth, in my eyes.

All of you only care about yourselves, disregarding others’ lives, always weighing and calculating, abandoning this and that, and ultimately, you cannot escape being abandoned, ending up with betrayal by all!”

Hearing Xia Hong’s words, Yue Feng, Liu Yuan, and Li Yuankun inside the hall couldn’t help but clench their fists, their eyes filled with emotion.

Whether others understood Xia Hong’s words, the three did not know.

But they understood almost instantly.

Because Xia Hong had always been an example for them to follow through his actions.

From the humble beginnings of the Great Xia to its current rise, no matter what difficulties or dead ends they encountered, Leader Xia Hong never abandoned any one of them, no matter how weak they were.

It was due to Xia Hong’s teachings by example that the three firmly believed that what Li Xuanling did at Hanqiong Gourd Valley and Wushuang Tunnel Entrance would never happen in Great Xia or to them.

After listening to Xia Hong’s words, Li Xuanling seemed struck by lightning, her heart clearly shaken to its core, the blood drained from her face, her teary eyes hollow, lips tightly pressed, fingertips embedded into her palm, with none of the former grand demeanor of the proud daughter of Longyou.

”Leader Xia, it’s enough to kill me, why do you need to break my spirit too?”

The hall was already silent, and Li Tiancheng’s aged voice suddenly echoed from the back of the hall, instantly drawing everyone’s attention.

Step step step...

Li Tiancheng, clad in white, slowly walked out from a small compartment at the back of the hall. Not only did he not face any restrictions from Great Xia, his complexion was much improved, showing no signs of imprisonment.

Of course, his left sleeve was still empty.

”Father!”

”Grandfather.”

”The Heavenly Ancestor is still alive.”

”Second uncle...”

Li Xuanyan, along with Li Xuanping and over twenty kneeling Li Family clan’s offspring, were suddenly filled with joy upon seeing Li Tiancheng, and they all started calling out.

Li Xuanling merely showed a slight ripple in her eye, not significantly moving;

Li Xuandu was pleasantly surprised, but when he realized that second uncle Li Tiancheng ignored the calls of the Li Family descendants totally, not even glancing at them, and saw the deep sorrow in Li Tiancheng’s eyes, he suddenly had a bad feeling.

”After all, she is about to become my wife, it’s good to give her a lesson and change her ways, or if she causes trouble in the future, it would be hard to manage.”

With Xia Hong’s words, everyone in the hall was instantly dumbfounded.

”You... I... pfft... Xia Hong, I would rather die than marry you!”

Li Xuanling’s previously lifeless face suddenly turned red with anger, and she spat at Xia Hong’s face out of shame and anger.

Slap........

Xia Hong did not coddle her, slapping her directly, then raised his hand to grip her chin, saying fiercely:

”You cheap woman, how dare you refuse? Even if you want to die, you will wait until after you are married!”

For the first time, Li Xuanling was slapped so vigorously, and she was stunned. After several moments, she finally reacted, staring at Xia Hong, trembling with rage, unable to utter a single word.

Li Tiancheng clearly intended to intervene, but seeing Xia Hong had held back some force, he opened his mouth but eventually held back, just lightly sighing.

Everyone in the hall had not yet recovered from this 180-degree turn when Xia Hong’s slap brought them back to their senses.

Still, the Leader is truly formidable!

Below, Yuwen Dao, Yue Feng, and the rest of the Great Xia’s Cold Resistance Levels, seeing Li Xuanling not daring to say a word after being beaten, struggled to suppress their laughter and couldn’t resist giving a thumbs up to Xia Hong in their hearts.

”Alright, Senior Li, our wager can now be considered settled, since Li Xuanling chose to bring people to assassinate, it means you’ve lost...”

Hiss..........

As Xia Hong turned his head to speak, a sudden sharp pain emanated from his tiger’s mouth.

His right hand had been holding Li Xuanling’s chin all along, and this woman took advantage of his turning to bite down on his tiger’s mouth.

Li Xuanling was also at the Cold Resistance Level, with a strength of twenty-two 鬃, and though it didn’t penetrate flesh, it did tear the skin membrane, immediately causing blood to ooze out.

Xia Hong endured the sharp pain in his tiger’s mouth, looking down at the defiant Li Xuanling, forcing himself to suppress his inner fury, and first let out a cold laugh, then turning to Yuwen Dao, he said in a deep voice: ”First throw all these Li family clansmen into the dungeon, then at night, you lead people to re-screen everyone in the camp, locate every Li Family clan’s descendant, don’t miss a single one.”

”Yes, my subordinate obeys!”

Upon hearing this, Yuwen Dao clearly understood something, his expression brightened as he quickly cupped his hands in response.

All present were Cold Resistance Levels, and although others might not realize, combining Xia Hong and Li Tiancheng’s dialogue, they could roughly guess the situation.

The expressions of those on the ground, such as Li Xuanping, immediately turned terrified, and while being dragged out of the hall by Yuwen Dao and others, they began to shout to Li Tiancheng and Li Xuanling.

”Father, what wager did you make with Leader Xia?”

”Grandfather, I am your biological grandson, please save me, grandfather.”

”Second uncle, second uncle, what wager did you make with Leader Xia?”

”Xuanling, we are family, you must plead with the leader for mercy on our behalf, Xuanling, save me, save me.”
