Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely-Chapter 1233 - 411: Mu Longhe’s Hope, Departure and New Discoveries

Upon hearing his son’s words, Xiang Ping immediately understood.

Mu Longhe’s escort mission must not be taken lightly!

The cultivation process of the Ice Abyss humans begins after the formation of the Five Viscera Meridian by enhancing the basic strength of the physical body; upon reaching the body’s limit, which is a basic strength of thirty thousand pounds, they then complete the process of Reshaping Skin to break through to the Cold Resistance Level;

The cultivation at the Cold Resistance Level revolves around the internal tissues of the body. The specific method is to use external forces to destroy the original tissue, which can be through cold light or Dan Medicine. In short, this method forces the tissues to repeatedly reorganize and grow, making the new tissues more adaptable to the Ice Abyss environment;

The subsequent Xianyang Level pertains to the bones. Although Xiang Ping has not reached this realm yet, he has already seen it in the "Xia Li·System Chapter," so he roughly understands what this realm is about.

This cultivation method determines that the foundational body of the Ice Abyss humans becomes more solid as their cultivation advances. Since cultivation focuses on comprehensive improvement rather than focusing on one point, the probability of a person with cultivation being completely crippled is extremely low.

What Mu Longhe refers to as being crippled is in comparison to the Xianyang Level. As long as his cultivation doesn’t fall, he remains a formidable presence at the Cold Resistance Level. Even without his arms, he can still kill using his body for impact and his leg skills.

Thus, escorting him back to Xia City should definitely not be taken lightly.

The serious manner of dispatching four Silver Order Prison Wardens to cooperate with the Longyuan Army for the escort indicates that Mu Longhe’s cultivation is likely intact.

"We must be careful. When we set out later, stay close to the main force!"

Xiang Ping realized that Xiang Liang would be escorting Mu Longhe back to Xia City along with the other three Prison Wardens, naturally feeling concerned. He even suggested that his son stay close to the main force once they set out.

Despite Mu Longhe’s reaction at dawn suggesting that there wouldn’t be any issues, how could anything be guaranteed to be 100% certain in such matters?

Upon hearing his father’s reminder, Xiang Liang smiled with an odd expression, "Dad, don’t worry. We four are just accompanying the escort of Mu Longhe this time."

Just accompanying?

Upon hearing this, Xiang Liang was taken aback and was about to ask when a voice interrupted him.

"Brother Mu, who would have thought that we would still be traveling together one day? It’s rare indeed!"

Two people slowly walked out from the Ministry Building. The elder in front, with white hair and beard, let his voice reach them before his person, carrying a strong sense of nostalgia and lament in his words.

"Lord Xiang is the one mainly responsible for this escort!"

There was no need for his son to explain. Xiang Ping had already recognized the elder.

It was Xiang Fu Hai, the former lord of Ba Shang, who has now pledged allegiance to the Great Xia.

"That’s good!"

At dawn, although Xiang Fu Hai hadn’t made a move, he flew into the sky with Xiahou Zhang and Murong Chui, so his injuries should be healed. Keeping an eye on the armless Mu Longhe should certainly pose no problem. Thinking of this, Xiang Ping naturally felt at ease.

"It’s indeed rare! The last time I dealt with Lord Xiang was seventeen years ago. If I remember correctly, it was because of that white-haired water monster in the Jiuqu Water Area, wasn’t it?"

On the other side, Mu Longhe also looked up with a wry smile, responding to Xiang Fu Hai.

The connections among the Nine Towns are limited to the merchant associations. When scrutinized closely, the interactions among the Xianyang Level individuals like them are even less frequent than those at the Cold Resistance Level.

Upon hearing Mu Longhe bring up the old issue from the Jiuqu Water Area, a trace of reminiscence flashed through Xiang Fu Hai’s eyes. After more than ten breaths, he recovered and met Mu Longhe’s gaze, the two of them involuntarily smiling simultaneously.

Xiang Fu Hai is now 138 years old, and Mu Longhe 135. There’s actually not much difference in their ages. Both Xianyang Level powerhouses, they were naturally prominent figures in their respective camps when they were young. They have known each other for at least a century, long before Ba Shang and Chui Mountain developed to the scale of towns.

The relationships among the Nine Towns of Moao South Slope are already extremely delicate. Rather than saying they’ve known each other for over a hundred years, it’s more like they’ve contended in the shadows for a century. What Mu Longhe mentioned is just the most recent interaction. If traced back further, there were confrontations on the battlefield, life-and-death struggles, and even occasions of sitting together for drinks.

Now, with the fall of Ba Shang, Xiang Fu Hai has integrated all of Ba Shang’s people into the Great Xia; as Chui Mountain fell into decline, Mu Longhe was abandoned by Lord Duan Hong, becoming a prisoner of the Great Xia. From now on, they no longer have the need for conflict, completely dropping their guard and reminiscing about the past, with countless indescribable emotions in their hearts.

Their smiles at this moment indeed carry a hint of reconciliation, laughing away past grievances!

Xiang Fu Hai suddenly thought of something, waving his hand repeatedly, "Brother Mu must remember to change the way you address me in the future. I’m no longer a lord now."

After nodding, Mu Longhe sighed lightly, "In truth, Lord Xia Hong need not be so cautious. I am already extremely grateful to have kept my life. How dare I cause further trouble? Besides, even if I had the will, I no longer have the capability. My arms have been severed, the damage to my skeletal structure is too severe, and I’ve even lost my Flying Ability. Having these four young ones escort me will suffice. Why trouble you, Brother Xiang?"

Upon hearing these words, Xiang Fu Hai’s expression turned peculiar, and he replied with a smile, "Brother Mu, do you think the lord sent me to specifically escort you?"

Isn’t that the case?

Mu Longhe appeared puzzled. He had heard the conversation between the young Silver Order Prison Warden and his father’s military officer, and if it wasn’t for this, what other reason would there be for Xiang Fu Hai to personally travel with him?
