I'm not a psychopath!

Chapter 167 Arrival at Jubei City

"Now what……"

Everyone looked at Xu Xingguang eagerly. They thought that the second young lady of the Xu family must have a way, as she grew up in such an environment.

Sure enough, she took out several white military coats from the storage bag.

"Here, standard equipment." Xu Xingguang looked at Baili Ye and said, "There is no way that there is no such thing in the Imperial City Army Warehouse. You must have seen it, but you don't know its function."

Baili Ye blushed a little at what he said. He had been thinking all day about how to become a wise ruler, but in the end he didn't even understand the deployment of his own army. So he had to take the coat and put it on silently.

This kind of clothes has only one function, which is to prevent heat loss, and it has achieved this function to the limit. It feels a bit stuffy. After all, it is mass-produced. Although it is definitely not as good as the one Xu Xingguang is wearing, there is no other way.

People have already reminded us, but if we haven't made adequate preparations, we can only bear it on our own.

After putting on their coats, the few people recovered quickly, but the cold weather still prompted them to gather around the fire to warm themselves.

At this moment, all the capable monks are in front of nature.

It's like I've become a mortal again.

……

"Wow, the snow is so white!"

At some point, the deck of the flying boat had already turned white. Qin Xiaosui, wearing a red and white cotton coat with the Nian beast on it, was rolling around in the snow.

The group has already traveled far into the North.

There is only a lonely boat in the vast universe, making this world seem particularly vast.

Suddenly, Xu Xingguang beside him said:

"arrive."

Everyone couldn't help but stand up and look into the distance. They saw the city wall in the distance like a barrier on the horizon, standing faintly above the vast northern border.

The city walls are tall and built of bricks and stones. Every huge stone seems to tell an ancient legend. As the flying boat gets closer, the scenery becomes clearer.

On the city wall, flags are fluttering.

The guards patrolled back and forth on the beacon tower, looking around vigilantly.

This is Jubei City, which is controlled by the Xu family.

The purpose of Jiang Qing and his party coming here is to discuss the attack on Frost Cliff City. Once everything is finalized and arranged, then it will be their turn to take action.

If we rush into Frost Cliff City like a headless fly, the result will be certain death.

Seeing Jubei City, everyone couldn't help but look towards the back of the city out of curiosity.

Reject the area north of Beicheng.

It is also a continuous and endless snowfield, which seems to connect with the sky and is boundless.

but.

What surprised everyone even more was.

Here in the snowy field, there actually grows a kind of ice crystal tree, which is ice blue all over, as if it was carved by humans.

After asking, I learned from Xu Xingguang that this was a naturally grown tree, and if it was broken, transparent juice would flow out of it.

It can also heal frostbite.

The forest made of ice crystal trees stretched into the distance, looking desolate yet full of vitality. As the flying boat flew over the forest, the roar of wild beasts could be heard occasionally...

I saw a flying boat coming.

The soldiers standing guard on the city wall first raised their spears and stood ready for battle, and then they saw the royal emblem on the flying boat clearly, so some soldiers immediately went to report.

"No need to go."

Xu Xingguang jumped onto the edge of the boat.

"It's Miss Second!"

"The second young lady is back, open the door quickly!"

Xu Xingguang took the lead and jumped off the flying boat.

Jiang Qingze teased, "Second Miss, you are very popular in Jubei City."

"Alright, okay..."

I don't know why, but when he said this, Xu Xingguang's tone lowered, which made Jiang Qing feel a little strange, and then he shook his head. He must have thought too much.

With my feet on the city wall, without the spiritual shield of the flying boat, the cold wind from the north gradually became clearly perceptible, with its biting chill and wild howling.

The wind was mixed with snowflakes, floating and scattering on the ground. The white snow covered everything, except for the city wall of Jubei City, which was not covered by snow for some reason and looked particularly abrupt.

Under the leadership of Xu Xingguang.

A group of people walked into the city.

The residents here are all wearing thick winter clothes, with resolute expressions on their faces, and in their eyes, there is the cleanest simplicity.

Vendors were hawking steaming food, and children were playing in the snow.

A scene full of vitality.

Jiang Qing suddenly discovered a very strange phenomenon and couldn't help but ask: "Hey, why are these residents... not wearing special clothes, but not affected at all?
According to my observation, the level of most residents is only at the stage of Qi training and foundation building.

If that's the case, that's it.

But why can even some children roll around in the snow like this?"

"What's wrong with rolling in the snow?" Shen Chengxian curled his lips and looked at Qin Xiaosui.

Jiang Qing's face darkened.

First of all, Qin Xiaosui is just petite, not a child, she is a legal loli! Secondly, how can you compare her with others?

This guy's talent and ability are definitely unique.

Maybe he is better than me.

"Really?" Jiang Qing pulled out the clothes that Shen Chengxian had stuffed into his pants, "Why don't you take off your clothes and roll on the snow for me to see..."

"Hiss! Forget it then." Shen Chengxian felt a chill instantly seeping in through the gap in his clothes, and his whole body shuddered.

He quickly stuffed his clothes back into his clothes.

"Yes, why is this? They seem... different from us?" Luo Shui also looked at the residents on both sides of the streets in the city curiously, puzzled.

"Um……"

Xu Xingguang said, "It is indeed different. The residents of Jubei City have a natural resistance to this extreme cold."

"is it?"

Jiang Qing blinked and looked at the coat wrapped in Xu Xingguang, as if trying to see something.

After a moment, Jiang Qing withdrew his gaze.

He took a deep breath of cold air, feeling the power flowing through his body, and couldn't help but frown. There was actually a slight sense of stagnation in the flow of spiritual power.

However, when the output of spiritual power is strengthened, as the spiritual energy surges out like a torrent, this feeling of stagnation will disappear.

"It still has some impact, I need to adapt as soon as possible." Jiang Qing murmured in his heart.

Soon, a group of people came out to greet them. It was Xu Xingguang's father, Xu Tianchuan, the current head of the Xu family.

"Brother Jiang, I've heard of your great name for a long time!" Xu Tianchuan bowed.

Jiang Qing also returned the greeting, being polite as he should be, "No, no, in terms of fame, a young man like me cannot compare to you, the city lord.

The Great General Zhenbei is a well-known figure. He has kept the area peaceful, which can be said to be a great merit!"

"Hahaha, false reputation, false reputation!!"

Xu Tianchuan stroked his beard and laughed, very satisfied, then looked at Xu Xingguang again, coughed and said: "He is really a young talent, if my daughter can marry a younger generation like Brother Jiang in the future.

I would wake up laughing even in my dreams!"

"..."

After a round of pleasantries.

In the meeting hall.

Xu Tianchuan's voice was deep and powerful. "In fact, our Xu family needs to bear the main responsibility for the matter in Shuangya City. However, we really don't have any extra troops to mobilize, and Beichuan is also fighting outside, so we have no choice..."

Jiang Qing nodded.

He already knew what was going on. Losing Frost Cliff City was indeed a major mistake, but there was no point in worrying about it now.

The key is how to get it back!
