Chapter 592: Chapter 284 Escalating Situation?_1
If you have something to say, make it clear.
You’re being deliberately obtuse here.
Are you trying to fool someone, or what?
Seeing that the color of the Family Head Luo Ping, sitting in the master’s seat, slowly became uglier,
Luo Yao then smiled somewhat guiltily.
After that, he spoke up again.
...
“Family Head, this matter is probably settled, but after all, it concerns the White Brahma Temple, one of the Three Great Demonic Forces of Buddhism on the Xuanyuan Continent.”
“As you know, entities such as this one,”
“often have a tendency not to keep their word.”
“So, whether it’s truly settled or not doesn’t just depend on what the White Brahma Temple says; we must also observe their actions.”
“Only when the White Brahma Temple truly takes action,”
“can we determine what those within the White Lotus Prefecture’s White Brahma Temple are really thinking.”
Listening to these words,
Luo Ping then silently nodded his head.
What that youngster Luo Yao said was indeed true.
The White Brahma Temple, after all, was one of the three great demonic forces of Buddhism.
And such forces,
cannot be fully trusted.
“In that case, let us see if the situation within the territory of the Da Feng Dynasty undergoes any changes.”
“If the White Brahma Temple decides to take action,”
“against the Imperial Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty and the Royal Yan Family of the Great Flame Dynasty,”
“this situation will certainly be advantageous for us.”
“If the White Brahma Temple has no intention of taking action…”
“Then, next, we might have to focus on defense as much as possible and wait for an opportunity.”
“The talismans created by Patriarch Changfeng are certainly effective,”
“but for an army composed of cultivators…”
“Their utility will naturally be reduced to a certain extent.”
“Such waste is obviously an unwise act.”
Having said this,
Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family in Qingshi City, silently lowered his head.
He casually picked up a state affair,
and turned all his attention and gaze to the document in his hands.
Meanwhile, Luo Yao, who sat beside Luo Ping,
finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, seeing that the focus of his family head was no longer on him.
Being the focus of Family Head Luo Ping’s attention
was truly somewhat uncomfortable.
It was not to the extent that he could not bear it,
but the constant attention
meant he couldn’t slack off or idle in his spare time.
As a result, Luo Yao, who was naturally lazy and leisurely, was bound to feel quite miserable. @@novelbin@@
…
As time passed by,
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed.
During this half-month,
The Royal Yan Family of the Great Flame Dynasty led a multitude of large and small family forces from outside the territory of the Da Feng Dynasty,
Launching a ferocious attack on the territories of the Luo Family in Qingshi City.
Although during this period,
The Imperial Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty did not make much effort.
Even so, the Luo Family in Qingshi City still lost a vast amount of territory and many cities in a short time.
In fact, if it had only been a matter of holding the cities,
The Luo Family in Qingshi City would not have suffered such significant losses.
The main reason was that during this time,
Some of the administrators under the Luo Family’s command couldn’t withstand the pressure.
They chose to surrender outright or colluded secretly with the Royal Yan Family of the Great Flame Dynasty.
Moreover, the overall strength of the Luo Family in Qingshi City was somewhat lesser than that of the Great Flame Dynasty.
Thus, within half a month,
Suffering such losses was, in fact, reasonable.
…
Da Feng Dynasty, Luo Mountain Prefecture.
Deep within the Luo Family Ancestral Land of Qingshi City,
In a courtyard emanating waves of ancient and mysterious aura,
Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family, was sitting under a Stone Pavilion at this moment.
His expression was calm; his right hand held a cup of hot tea, and he appeared to be enjoying it leisurely.
On the contrary, the robust middle-aged man standing beside him,
Who appeared somewhat burly and bearlike, and whose body faintly exuded whiffs of bloody aura,
Now wore a face full of anxiety.
It seemed he had something to say,
But couldn’t find the right moment to speak.
“Alright, take a seat first,”
Luo Changfeng lifted his head and silently glanced at Luo Yong, who had reached Organ Refinement Perfection Realm and seemed just a step away from Blood Cultivation.
He pointed to the spot in front of him and then spoke in a low voice.
“Patriarch Changfeng…”
“The situation within the Da Feng Dynasty has become increasingly dire for us of the Qingshi City Luo Family.”
“At first, it was manageable,”
“But now, in just half a month, our Luo Family in Qingshi City has nearly lost one-fifth of its territory.”
“Moreover, the more this happens, the more unsettled the people’s hearts become on the lands we control.”
“If this continues without countermeasures, I fear…”
Luo Yong, who had just taken his seat, couldn’t wait to speak the words he had been wanting to say but hadn’t had the chance to.
Luo Changfeng silently put down the cup of hot tea in his hand.
He paused for a moment and then asked in a low voice, “Fear what?”
Luo Yong swallowed and then said, “I fear that in no time at all, our Luo Family in Qingshi City will gradually weaken until… until the most severe outcome occurs.”
Although Luo Yong did not specify what this so-called most severe outcome was,
Luo Changfeng, sitting under the Stone Pavilion, knew all too well.
What do you think?
