Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1101: Chapter 381: Hongmen, Seizing the Moment, Allies and the New Nine Towns, the Overbearing Great Xia, Disregarding Warnings

Shangguan Yang and Qin Feng spoke with thorns in their words, clearly aiming to provoke, and by the end, they deliberately glanced at Xiahou Zhang and Murong Chui.

Seeing the two of them acting like grievances, Xia Hong shook his head and chuckled lightly but said nothing. He raised his glass in the air to toast them and after drinking, finally turned his gaze to Duan Hong, the only lord of Chui Mountain Town yet to make a statement.

Duan Hong’s expression was extremely conflicted at this moment. He knew very well the situation was inevitable, no matter how hard he resisted. The issue was not only that Great Xia had seized Hongguan but also assisted Jiangxia in reclaiming Peak Mountain, slaughtering over two thousand Defensive Army troops from Chui Mountain and killing his nephew Duan Chang, while his grandson Duan Xu’s life or death remained uncertain.

The most crucial point is that his Chui Mountain is just to the north of Hongguan.

While other towns might not care, Chui Mountain cannot afford such indifference.

Letting Great Xia establish itself here, the future of Chui Mountain...

”Tonight I have invited you all here not only to formally pledge brotherhood with the Eight Towns but also to discuss the ownership of Bashang territory!”

While Duan Hong was still torn internally, Xia Hong gently set down his wine glass at this time, looked up at the other seven town lords, and continued speaking with a smile.

Duan Hong’s face flushed slightly as he found himself directly ignored, watching Xia Hong at the head seat, he suddenly clenched the fist in his sleeve.

Listening to him, talking about re-deliberating Bashang territory ownership, Duan Hong was so furious that he couldn’t restrain himself, directly saying, ”The Bashang territory was already divided among us Six Towns last night. What does Great Xia have to do with it?”

Then, realizing that Shangguan Yang and the others were all giving him strange looks, Duan Hong lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and his expression instantly froze.

Three out of the Five Great Masters of Dajue Temple were killed by Xia Hong alone.

Moreover, it was under the circumstances of Xia Hong fighting one against five; at that time, these twelve people, including them, were trapped at Chilong Lake.

In other words, if Xia Hong hadn’t intervened, the over one million people in Bashang City would have perished long ago, and Dajue Temple might have succeeded in resurrecting that Five-headed Mysterious-faced Maitreya. If indeed this happened, whether the Nine Towns would still exist is unpredictable.

His words just now, what does Great Xia have to do with it, was clearly absurdly wrong.

”I know the Bashang Prefecture treasury must have been divided up by you yesterday, I will be generous this time and not ask any of you for it. However, this Bashang territory, Great Xia cannot concede it anymore...”

Xia Hong paused briefly and continued with a smile, ”Let me be frank with you, I witnessed the entire battle between Dajue Temple and the Nine Towns, and naturally, whoever contributes the most, will get the larger share of the land according to the rules.

My proposal for division is: Bashang City and Jiuchu Camp belong to Great Xia; Zouyang and Baisong Camps go to Jiangxia; Qing Valley goes to Yangqu; and as compensation, Jiangxia will give Peak Mountain and Longzhou Camps to Dragon Valley, what do you all think?”

Bang...

Upon hearing Xia Hong’s division plan, Duan Hong could no longer hold back. Chui Mountain Town had already lost Hongguan and Peak Mountain, and now couldn’t even keep the Bashang City and Baisong Camp, previously divided among the Six Towns last night.

”An Outer Realm camp that has just arrived, what right do they have to meddle in the affairs of my Nine Towns? Having come to your banquet is already a favor from me, and after just a few words here, you’ve divided Bashang territory, Xia Hong, what do you think you are?”

Having been ignored by Xia Hong earlier, Duan Hong’s heart was filled with anger. Now that he intended to tear off the mask, his words naturally left no room for politeness and he directly berated Xia Hong at the end.

”How dare you!”

”Dare you disrespect the Lord!”

Before Xia Hong, the person involved, could speak, Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng, and other members of Great Xia of the Cold Resistance Level couldn’t help but stand up.
