Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Merely from the intelligence Xu Ning brought back, it’s enough to conclude that Dajue Temple’s strength is unfathomably deep, along with a connection with Deceitful Monster, with the enemy situation unclear, the Lord must not put himself in danger.”

Xu An firmly nodded, glanced at his brother Xu Ning, and continued speaking:

”Brother risked his life to gather this intelligence, in hopes that when Great Xia faces Dajue Temple later, it would suffer less. If the Lord ventured to risk himself, wouldn’t all the intelligence he gathered be rendered meaningless? Were brother conscious now, he would certainly not agree to the Lord personally risking himself.”

Hearing their words, Xia Hong’s face subtly tensed.

These five pieces of intelligence were clearly already analyzed one by one by Xia Chuan.

He likely deduced no less than himself.

It’s indeed not wise to proceed rashly!

Especially the fourth piece of information, Nine Towns have already made their move in Qinghe Village, this sentence contains so much, until thoroughly clarified, if he ventured to Dajue Temple, exposing himself would be nothing, but allowing Great Xia to be fully exposed to the Nine Towns, then these past four or five years’ arrangements would be utterly in vain.

”Qiu Peng mentioned to me that Xu Ning left two scouts in Lower River Village, shouldn’t they be able to obtain some information on Qinghe Village? Have they reported anything recently?”

Xu An knew this matter well, immediately nodding, ”There are indeed two scouts, named Bai Shanqiu and Xiang Liang, one Cold Resistance Level with Two-maned strength, and one Earth-digging Realm Limit cultivation, both voluntarily requested to remain in Lower River Village.

According to brother’s earlier six-month practice of lurking in Lower River Village, unless under special circumstances, typically a report is sent back at the end of each month, today is only the twenty-fifth, so it will be five days before they communicate back.”

Xia Hong’s brows slightly furrowed, a Cold Resistance Level Two-maned, and an Earth-digging Realm Limit cultivation, what useful information could they possibly gather?

”Brother, Xu Ning’s five pieces of intelligence are all highly valuable, now all that’s required is confirmation and validation from those two scouts. If indeed, as we hope, then Dajue Temple would very likely clash with the Nine Towns, at this juncture, for any reason, we can’t come forward in their territory!”

Xia Chuan was evidently still somewhat worried about Xia Hong going to Dajue Temple personally for Xu Ning, therefore he expressed his deterrence between the words.

Xia Hong’s brows slightly tightened, his gaze lingering on the fourth line of the blood-stained cyan letters, more precisely on the phrase ”Nine Towns have already made a move in Qinghe Village” these ten words.

Surely, he understood Xia Chuan’s concern.

But Xu Ning!

Xia Hong turned his head to gaze at Xu Ning in the chair, his expression subtly stern, contemplating for a long time before finally sighing, and solemnly telling Xia Chuan: ”Register 1000 military merits for Xu Ning! Henceforth, their family’s clothing, food, and living arrangements, including cultivation resources, will be supplied by the camp until he is cured!”

Hearing this, Xia Chuan’s face subtly tensed, then immediately nodded.

Xu An and Hong Qiaoru’s expressions visibly jolted upon hearing this, soon echoed by bowing deeply to Xia Hong, full of emotion on their faces.

”Xu An thanking the Lord on behalf of brother!”

”The wife thanking the Lord on behalf of husband!”

Xu Ning had already attained the Eighth-Grade Red Cloud Marquis; his accumulated military merits already exceeded 1000, and granting 1000 more would promote him directly to Seventh-Grade Qingming Marquis. Mind you, currently within the whole Great Xia, only Xia Chuan and Yuwen Dao held the rank of Seventh-Grade Marquis.

Suddenly, Xu Ning elevated to this status.

Key was Xia Hong’s following words; henceforth their family’s clothing and living arrangements, including cultivation resources, would be ensured by the camp, until Xu Ning was cured!

This was nearly a verbal assurance, personally promising to find a remedy for Xu Ning, thereby instantly giving Hong Qiaoru and Xu An immeasurable relief.

”In the future, take care of Xu Ning at home, I will surely save him, rest assured! Xia Chuan, Xu An, come with me to the Political Hall.”

After speaking to Hong Qiaoru, Xia Hong called Xia Chuan and Xu An to follow him outside the hall.
