Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Chapter 1101: Chapter 391: The Heritage of the Baron Mansion, Path to Advancement

The villagers looked at each other, momentarily at a loss for words.

Then, someone whispered.

"This... Lord, we lack the virtue to enjoy such a precious resource..."

"Yes, Lord, this precious milk, how could we humble villagers be worthy to enjoy it..."

Cao Xing shook his head.

"In my territory, there are no commoners or nobles, only those who can contribute to me."

"Your physical fitness is too poor now, and your work efficiency is too low. Getting yourselves healthy is the top priority."

"Don’t hesitate to drink, and certainly don’t stash it away privately, understand?"

At this moment, Zelko Village Chief’s aged face was full of tears.

He was about to kneel on the ground, but then remembered the rules of this territory.

So he bent down and said with gratitude: "Thank you, Lord."

"Your benevolence is as if you have given us new life."

Other villagers also followed suit, expressing their gratitude.

[Due to your compassion for your subordinates, territory member: Al’s loyalty has greatly increased, current loyalty: 87]

[Due to your compassion for your subordinates, territory member: Zelco’s loyalty has greatly increased, current loyalty: 92]

[Due to your...]

...

...

Cao Xing nodded slightly, then said: "Alright, go back and rest."

"Tomorrow I have new tasks to arrange for you."

The villagers heard and promptly complied.

However, as they left, all of their faces bore happy smiles.

Beside him, Dazhuang scratched his head and said clumsily: "Lord, you’re as good to us as a father."

"Our clan leader once said that a lord who treats every subordinate well, regardless of rank, will achieve great things."

"You will surely become a lord renowned across the continent."

Faced with Dazhuang’s flattery, Cao Xing laughed and cursed: "Get out of here, I don’t have a son as big as you."

"Now, take this barrel of milk back to the warehouse."

Dazhuang grinned foolishly, "As you command, Lord!"

After speaking, he and another Polar Person moved the milk back.

After everyone left.

Cao Xing thought about whether he had any unresolved matters.

Then, he recalled the powers of the Light Church, which seemed to have completely retreated from the Gale Snow Plain recently.

And... the man who was both the Black Robed Priest and the Baron, Fitz Walker.

"Let’s see how this new baron has been doing recently."

So he pressed the communication device on his ear.

"Fitz Walker, it’s me."

...

...

Meanwhile.

In the lavishly decorated Baron Mansion, the newly succeeded Fitz Walker was enjoying laying on a large chair.

Around him were several beautiful maids, gently massaging his body.

Fitz enjoyed the service of these maids, comfortably closing his eyes.

In front of him was a dignified and elegant mature woman.

This beautiful woman had a face full of intense worry and sorrow.

"Fitz... you can’t go on like this..."

"After your father’s death, there are still many matters left unaddressed."

"The family’s estates need you to reorganize, the accounts of the shops need to be meticulously reviewed, and commercial collaborations with other nobles need your negotiation."

"You are now the man of our family and the new Baron, you must finish handling these matters promptly."

Listening to the admonitions of this beautiful woman, Fitz Walker gradually showed an impatient expression.

He waved his hand.

"I understand, Mother, I will take care of these things."

"You should go back and rest first."

The mature woman saw his demeanor, hesitated to speak.

Finally, she sighed lightly, turned around in resignation, and left.

Soon after the woman left.

Fitz Walker’s familiar voice suddenly echoed in his ear, immediately causing him to tremble all over, abruptly sitting up from the chair.

The movement startled the nearby maids, causing them to shiver: "Baron, what’s wrong?"

Fitz quickly stood up and said urgently.

"Leave here, quickly."

The maids wore bewildered expressions.

Seeing them still lingering, a hint of killing intent flashed in Fitz’s eyes.

"Three seconds, if anyone remains in my sight, they will all die!"

Hearing this, the maids paled with fright.

As they knew, this Baron truly would do such a thing.

Promptly, they frantically scrambled to their feet, then clumsily fled the scene.

After the room was devoid of people.

Fitz Walker’s killing intention instantly dissipated.

Then reverence emerged on his face.

"Master, I am here."

"I apologize, dismissing those servants took some time."

Cao Xing didn’t mind, instead asking: "How is the situation at the Baron Mansion lately?"

"Reporting to Master, recently the Baron Mansion has had no changes, training as needed, taxing as needed."

"However, since the battle at Dorun Lake City, the Light Church has not sent anyone to look for me."

Cao Xing chuckled, "It seems the Light Church retreated quite cleanly."

Fitz lightly laughed: "Yes, the Light Church overestimated themselves, daring to challenge the Kingdom’s might, and learned their lesson."

"Master is indeed foresighted."

Cao Xing directly ignored his flattery.

"Fitz, let me ask you a question."

"Please speak, Master, I will answer truthfully."

This new Baron held great respect for Cao Xing.
