The name Xing River was chosen by Xia Hong.
In March of the first year, to gather enough beast blood for a breakthrough to the Cold Resistance Level, he hunted intermediate Cold Beasts madly, traveling south from Redwood Ridge to the riverbank for the first time.
Seeing the lush riverbank and the obviously extraordinary vegetation, Xia Hong named it Xing.
As the Lord of Great Xia, Xia Hong's naming naturally carried official significance, so from the first year, everyone in Great Xia referred to the southern river as Xing River.
However, unlike the people of Great Xia, the Nine Towns referred to Xing River as the Heng River.
The name Heng River originally spread from Jiangxia Town.
