Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Moreover, within these medium-sized residences, wooden beds and quilts were also prepared.

The quilt was made overnight by Xia Yanni, sewn from rabbit skins, quite warm.

At this moment, Cao Xing remembered what happened last night between him and Xia Yanni.

It seemed that something in his heart had been stirred.

Meanwhile, Liu Muxue had already quickly wiped her body, then sat on the edge of the bed and gently took off her wolf skin coat.

Instantly, a body with skin like creamy jade, perfectly curved, appeared in front of Cao Xing.

Liu Muxue was the first to slip into the covers, covering half her face with the quilt, and said softly, "Axing... It's cold outside, come back into the bed to warm up for a while."

Cao Xing nodded, "Okay, I'll come over now."

He took off his outerwear and dived into the warm bed.

The next moment, a pair of slender, warm legs stretched toward him.

They looked into each other's eyes, Liu Muxue's incomparably beautiful face carrying a hint of shyness and a trace of expectation.

Until an hour later.

The beauty contentedly lay in Cao Xing's arms and soon fell soundly asleep.

From the global arrival until today, nearly six nights had passed.

She had grown accustomed to the presence of the person beside her pillow.

Cao Xing held the warm body in his arms.

It was now past nine in the evening, still early, so he didn't feel very sleepy.

After about another hour.

Cao Xing heard a system prompt.

[Your Lord's Hut has been successfully upgraded, current level: Level 3]

[Population cap +100, reputation value +200]

[Current population: 100/206]

[Blacksmith Shop, Ore Processing Plant, Sewing Shop, Cafeteria, and Polar People Hut among territory buildings can all be upgraded to Level 3.]

Seeing this prompt, Cao Xing's spirits lifted.

"Finally completed."

He gently settled the beauty in his arms and then withdrew his arm.

Liu Muxue was sleeping soundly and was not disturbed by him.

And Cao Xing quickly dressed and went outside the territory.

At this moment, Dazhuang and others stood with hands on hips, holding hammers, satisfied with the building in front of them.

This was their successful labor, and a sense of satisfaction welled up in their hearts.

And Cao Xing also noticed the changes to the Lord's Hut.

The Level 3 Lord's Hut was still a two-story building, but there were more decorations outside.

Eaves, doorknobs, and windows with patterns.

Seeing Cao Xing approaching, Dazhuang excitedly said, "My Lord! We have upgraded the Lord's Hut successfully."

"Please assign us more work!"

Cao Xing smiled, "You've worked hard, Dazhuang, but your task for today is complete, and now you can go back to rest."

Then he added, "By the way, that's an order."

The Polar People exchanged glances upon hearing this, no longer refusing.

Dazhuang laughed and said, "Alright, my esteemed Lord, then we shall go rest!"

Cao Xing nodded, then surveyed the territory.

He saw that the new cowshed had also been built.

Those yaks, sheep, and large-horned dairy cows that had been wandering the territory now had shelters to escape the cold wind and low temperatures at night.

Not only that, but the Basic Level Elemental Arrow Towers had also increased from six to thirteen in just a few short hours.

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction, then called all the subjects over.

"Everyone, today's work is over, now I order you all to go rest!"

Hearing Cao Xing's voice, all subjects at work began to laugh.

Then they said in unison, "We obey the Lord's order!"

They put down their tools and went into their shelters.

Then, Cao Xing sent recruitment invitations to the remaining fourteen Polar People.

[Recruitment success: Polar People Kristu, Pal, Angelo... joined your territory, population +14]

His population became: 114/206

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good, everything is ready, now it's just waiting for tomorrow's update."

Just as he was about to return to his room,

Sarah appeared silently.

In the night, Sarah wore a black tight-fitting outfit, with her slender legs close together, looking at Cao Xing a bit uneasy, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

Cao Xing asked suspiciously, "Sarah, what's wrong?"

Sarah said softly, "My Lord, I encountered something and need to consult you..."

Cao Xing was taken aback, then said, "What is it, did you encounter trouble?"

Sarah shook her head, her tone growing softer, "No... it's not that..."

"Then what?"

"This place... is not convenient, can we talk elsewhere..."

Then, without letting him refuse, Sarah grabbed Cao Xing's wrist and quickly led him to her residence.

Cao Xing, baffled, knew that as his second follower at the Deadly Loyalty level, Sarah would never harm him.

Then, being led by Sarah, he went into her residence.

Once inside the room, Sarah directly shut the door with a 'bang'.

Then she watched Cao Xing intently.

As her breathing grew more rapid, her whole being took on a peculiar aura.

Cao Xing asked, "Sarah, what happened to you?"

In the room, Sarah hesitated and stammered, "Last night, I saw you and that woman in the Sewing Shop, doing... doing that kind of thing..."

Hearing the latter half of the sentence, Cao Xing's eyes widened, then he coughed violently, "Cough! Cough cough!"

"Sarah, don't misunderstand; we're in a normal relationship, we just... just..."

As he spoke to the end, even Cao Xing felt a bit guilty.

Sarah shook her head and said, "No... I didn't mean that..."
