Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 592: Chapter 244: Return to Qin, Return Home!! It’s Actually Xiao He?

However, the surface seemed deliberately covered, as if by a piece of flooring.

“Open it.”

Tuoba Hu waved his hand.

A few soldiers immediately stepped forward.

They directly removed the slab covering the throne.

The next moment.

A passage came into view.

“Great King.”

“This is the sacred vault spoken of by the previous king, containing our tribe’s century-long reserves.”

“Our tribe has suffered so greatly at the hands of Qin, with heavy losses. But as long as we open this vault and acquire its resources, our tribe can quickly recover.” Wu Wu said excitedly.

“Yes.”

A hint of excitement appeared in Tuoba Hu’s eyes.

Currently, his tribe had been ravaged by Zhao Feng’s forces, left with a myriad of wounds,

and without the resources from this vault, the tribe would find it very difficult to recover.

But now the situation was different.

As long as this century-old vault is opened, the resources within could rewrite the tribe’s fate and expedite the recovery of its strength.

“Let’s go.”

Tuoba Hu impatiently proceeded toward the passage.

Wu Wu and other generals followed suit.

As for the tribal vault,

they had only heard of it, but in each generation, only the king knew the vault’s location and how to open it.

At this moment, being able to witness it firsthand was a boon for them.

But when they reached where the vault’s door was meant to be,

everyone froze, stunned.

“Why is the vault door shattered?”

Tuoba Hu’s voice trembled.

Before them,

they could see a thick bronze doorway sliced into two, completely open.

It seemed.

The vault had already been breached.

“Could the people of Qin have opened the vault prematurely?” one general speculated.

Upon hearing this,

Tuoba Hu panicked.

He immediately hurried into the vault.

Once inside,

Tuoba Hu scanned the surroundings.

His eyes widened, a mixture of disbelief and towering rage flooding in.

“Impossible.”

“Impossible.”

“How could the people of Qin have emptied our tribal vault so quickly?”

“How could a century of accumulation for our tribe be totally erased?”

Tuoba Hu’s voice carried a sobbing tone.

Witnessing the empty vault saddened him more than hearing about his father’s death.

Not only Tuoba Hu,

but all the Donghu generals who came in were equally shocked and stunned.

The tribe’s century-old treasury was gone.

Apparently, it had been rapidly emptied by the people of Qin.

And to further humiliate them, the vault had been completely stripped clean, not a single item left, as if it had been thoroughly swept.

“Qin.”

“Zhao Feng…”

“I will not rest until I destroy you.”

Tuoba Hu roared angrily.

The next moment.

He could no longer contain his immense rage.

“Poof.”

A mouthful of fresh blood spilled directly from his mouth.

—————–

Shaqiu region!

“Ying’er.”

“Do you think it might be abrupt for me to see your mother like this?”

“Should I head to the Prefectural City first to buy some gifts before visiting her?”

“Even though I bought quite a lot this time, it doesn’t seem enough.”

Beside a carriage, Li You continued to chatter to Zhao Ying inside.

Inside the carriage,

Zhao Ying listened to Li You, feeling both shy and annoyed.

Previously,

Li You was somewhat afraid of her brother, hesitating to speak freely in his presence. However, upon seeing that her brother didn’t stop him, Li You became bolder.

Seated inside the carriage with them, Zhao Feng chuckled as he watched his sister.

Knowing that Li You had been pursuing his sister for almost two years, Zhao Feng was certainly aware.

Since the beginning.

When countless noblemen came to seek marriage, Zhao Feng made it clear that his sister’s marriage would be decided by her.

The person she liked, regardless of being a commoner or aristocrat,

he, as her brother, would support her.

But if anyone dared to use any deceit, then he wouldn’t hesitate to be ruthless.

Li You pursued Zhao Ying openly, and Zhao Feng actually didn’t oppose it.

Moreover, his sister didn’t seem very averse to Li You either.

And Li You was unmarried, his character was quite decent.

“If you don’t like Li You, I will directly reject him and tell him not to bother you anymore.”

Looking at his sister’s expression, Zhao Feng spoke.

“Well…” Zhao Ying paused, then waved her hand, “There’s no need for that.”

“It seems this little girl is somewhat affectionate toward Li You.” Zhao Feng teased.

“At least I’m not averse to him.”

“And he doesn’t have that spoiled atmosphere of those from big families.” Zhao Ying replied gently.

“Don’t view all descendants of large families as spoiled.”

“Their education far exceeds that of commoners, spoiled brats are rare in Qin.” Zhao Feng said with a smile.

Children from big families,

the probability of them being spoiled is actually very low.

Unless they are truly extremely arrogant and ignorant.

Otherwise, a true big family seeks the betterment and enduring strength of their lineage.

And the foundation of this strength lies in their offspring.

So they spare no effort in nurturing their descendants.

This is true both in this era and in the future.

“Yes.”

Zhao Ying nodded, feeling her brother was right.

At this moment!

“Senior General.”

“We’ve entered the Shaqiu region.”

“The location of the Prefectural City, the Prefectural Governor is waiting.” Zhang Ming’s voice sounded outside.

“Who is the current Shaoqiu Governor?” Zhao Feng asked.

“To the Senior General.”

“It was originally Prefect Yanbing’s Prefectural Chief, named Xiao He.” Zhang Ming replied respectfully.

“Who?”

Upon hearing the name, Zhao Feng paused, asking again.

“Governor Xiao He.” Zhang Ming replied again, thinking the Senior General might not have heard clearly.
