Xia Hong questioned his children, Xia Yuyao and Xia Yusheng, about Moao River and the foreign powers they encountered. While Xia Yusheng offered a simple answer, Xia Yuyao delivered a sophisticated analysis of their neighbors' strengths, weaknesses, and strategic blunders.

Contrary to Xia Hong and his wife, naturally, were Cai Qianshan and the others.

The more they listened, the uglier their expressions became. After all, Cai Qianshan was a Landgrave, able to keep his composure and maintain his countenance, but Cai Qiuhu and others grew angrier as they listened, their faces visibly turning red.

Generally speaking, people don’t get angry over a few words, let alone Cai Qiuhu, with his six Tribulation Body Realm experts. Their intense anger was clearly because Xia Yuyao’s words hit a nerve.

When people become angry because of words, it’s probably because the words ring true.

Xia Yuyao’s comments were undoubtedly the best summary of Cai Qiu’s actions of supporting the two towns of Jinshan and Wuchuan with military reinforcements this time.

Crucially, she even knew about the Deceitful Monster in Blood Miasma Plain, clearly, she had prepared well in Xia City before the battle.

Xia Yuyao’s speech was not yet finished.

"Foolish and pathetic, short-sighted and ignorant, strong but lacking virtue. Yao’er feels that these External Fief experts will either die at the hands of the Deceitful Monsters or fall at the hands of my father. The so-called Four Great Feudal Towns of Moao River will inevitably become territories of our Great Xia..."

"Shut up!"

"How dare you!"

"Such arrogance from a little girl!"

"Do you, a child who still reeks of milk, dare to..."

......

Cai Qiuhu and the others finally couldn’t hold back and angrily interrupted Xia Yuyao, their aura suddenly rising, as if ready to attack.

Of course, they had to maintain face; being two to three hundred years old and wanting to attack a girl under ten, would be shameful if word got out.

"Hmph!"

Xia Hong naturally would not indulge these people, even though he knew Cai Qiuhu and the others had no intention of acting, he still let out a cold huff and immediately waved his sleeve, summoning thirteen Beast Emperor-level Puppets.

"The daughter of this Lord is not yet ten years old this year, yet even she can see through the facade of Cai Qiu. Furthermore, if you cannot even tolerate the words of a little girl under ten, you dare call yourselves Tribulation Body Realm experts, worthy of stirring the winds and rains in my Southern Slope Territory?

Landgrave Chu Longteng of Chencang has yet to show up because he wants you, Cai Qiu, to lead the charge. Thinking to be on par with Chencang, Cai Qiu should have a few intelligent individuals, but who would have thought you are all muddle-headed? This Lord thought that after last night’s defeat at the Aikou, with the allied forces camp in chaos, you would recognize reality. But it seems you remain stubborn and unyielding..."

Xia Hong’s voice gradually turned heavy, mainly because he noticed out of his peripheral view that in Jinyang City below, more than a hundred Xianyang Level individuals from Cai Qiu still had some skill, having breached the city gates with a small force of allied soldiers, who followed them in.

Although Yuwen Dao assured him that Lin Kai was personally defending Jinyang City, making it impossible for this remnant army to breach, the sounds of fighting from within the city still made him somewhat uneasy, as inevitably, battles lead to casualties.

"Landgrave Cai, Cai Qiu has already lost, at least at present, accept the reality! From this moment on, take all your people from Cai Qiu and withdraw from the Southern Slope Territory. As for everything that happened before, Great Xia will overlook it, and whether we’re at war or peace in the future..."

"Which eye of Lord Xia saw us lose? Your Jinyang City has already been breached. The situation has changed; your tens of thousands of reinforcements coming from behind are now useless!"

Xia Hong directly ignored Cai Qiuhu’s ranting; he stared intently at Cai Qianshan, waiting for Cai Qiu’s leading figure to respond.

Cai Qiuhu possesses Tribulation Body cultivation but cannot match him one-on-one, and with Beast Emperor-level Puppets in play, there’s no contest.

Hence, among this group from Cai Qiu, only Cai Qianshan is qualified to speak with him.

Cai Qiuhu could sense the meaning in Xia Hong’s dismissive demeanor, his face flushed with anger, his regular demeanor as Little Landgrave entirely vanished as he yelled in rage:

"Xia Hong, you..."

"Shut up!"

After a long silence, Cai Qianshan finally spoke.

He waved off Cai Qiuhu, who was moving forward, glanced at the swiftly approaching tens of thousands of Xia Army, then turned to Xia Hong with a smile and said, "Lord Xia, you should know that in the battle of Jinyang, this Landgrave can accept either victory or defeat. Due to your baseless threats, I should withdraw my troops? What do you take Cai Qiu for?"

Whoosh...

Xia Hong exhaled a long breath, and his eyes turned completely cold.

It was clear Cai Qianshan was determined to fight on, no matter what cards the Xia Army held. After all, the dead would not be from Cai Qiu; causing trouble for Great Xia was worthwhile alone!

"If that’s the case, there’s nothing more to discuss."

With his eyes turned icy, Xia Hong wasted no more words, shouting down below, "Qin Feng, Shangguan Yang, this is your last chance to make a decision. Have your soldiers lay down their weapons, surrender, and leave the city gates. This Lord promises they won’t be treated as enemy troops, and after Southern Slope unification, they, like others, will gain Xia citizenship."

There was no response.

Xia Hong wasn’t surprised. With bets placed on both sides, they couldn’t lean entirely one way. Moreover, Qin Feng and Shangguan Yang likely had no choice now, with only six Tribulation Bodies behind Cai Qianshan, and two others clearly keeping an eye on them.

"Surround the city and prepare to annihilate this last wave of rebels. Unite the Southern Slope!"
