Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood

Chapter 685: Chapter 330: One of the Shadow Guard Three Great Commanders, Zhen_2

Yet the Luo Family Ancestral Land in Qingshi City still maintains that classical flavor from its very beginnings.

The powerful Qingshi City Luo Family remains so low-profile.

While the Lu Family, who merely dominate Qiuyue City, dare to act in such a way.

This is truly…

Somehow beyond Luo Yao’s expectations.

“Young Family Head…”

...

Inside the room at the top of the tavern.

A figure clad in black suddenly appeared.

He stood before Luo Yao, head slightly bowed, his expression thick with respect.

“What’s the situation?”

“What did Patriarch Changfeng say?”

Luo Yao asked the Shadow Guard who had suddenly appeared before him in a low voice.

“The master says, the Young Family Head can do as he wishes…”

The Shadow Guard replied softly.

Luo Yao’s brows slightly furrowed at this response.

The answer he wanted was not this one.

He was already aware of Patriarch Changfeng’s attitude.

It was likely the sort that washed his hands of the matter, akin to an absentee landlord.

Most affairs would be left to the clan members to handle.

And such matters concerning taxes were no exception.

Thus, what really concerned Luo Yao was no longer Patriarch Changfeng’s attitude.

But rather, which level of Shadow Guard Patriarch Changfeng had dispatched to protect him.

Was it a Blood Refinement level Shadow Guard, or perhaps…

“Young Family Head.”

Before Luo Yao could voice his query.

A somewhat vague figure, emanating an extreme chill and a terrifying aura, slowly appeared within his field of vision.

This figure was neither towering nor robust, nor particularly tall.

Indeed, its physique even appeared somewhat hunched.

An aged face seemed to convey that its owner had lived through countless years of vicissitudes.

At first glance, this person seemed no different from the neighbor’s unimposing second uncle.

Yet such a being brought a somewhat uncontrollable smile to Luo Yao’s calm countenance.

The reason was simple.

It was merely because the person before him, as harmless as the neighbor’s second uncle, was one of the Shadow Guard’s Three Great Commanders, Zhen.

Long ago, this being had already reached the Initial Realm of Blood Refinement.

As for what this being’s real cultivation level and strength were now,

That was unknowable to Luo Yao.

“So it is you, elder. I’m relieved with you here.”

Gazing at the old man known as Zhen, Luo Yao smiled faintly and then spoke softly.

Zhen bent his back slightly, squinting his somewhat cloudy eyes, and said calmly, “The master has great confidence in the Young Family Head, so please proceed as you wish. No matter what you end up doing in Qiuyue City, the master will support you.”

Luo Yao nodded silently, then asked, “And the Family Head’s side…?”

Zhen, still squinting his slightly clouded eyes, smiled and answered, “Surely the Family Head feels the same.”

Upon hearing this response, the corners of Luo Yao’s mouth twitched slightly.

It seemed his question was rather redundant.

Within the Luo Family Clan premises in Qingshi City, the attitude of Patriarch Changfeng naturally held the utmost importance.

Since Patriarch Changfeng had already spoken,

All he needed to do was follow Patriarch Changfeng’s instructions.

As for the Family Head…

Forget it, at this time the Family Head’s attitude was no longer important.

Besides, faced with Patriarch Changfeng’s stance,

would our Family Head dare to raise even the slightest objection?

Clearly, he would not.

…

Not long after,

Zhen, one of the Shadow Guard’s Three Great Commanders, disappeared from the room.

And Luo Yao, still in the tavern’s top-floor room,

after filling his stomach,

also silently stepped out of the tavern.

With Luo Ze behind him, he walked towards the direction of the highest-level governmental institution within Qiuyue City.

Since Patriarch Changfeng had already sent Zhen to guard by his side.

The acts he would undertake afterwards were naturally going to be somewhat more arrogant.

If he were not to act a bit more arrogantly, wouldn’t that waste the appearance of Zhen, one of the Shadow Guard Three Great Commanders?

Therefore, after much thought.

Luo Yao finally decided to first visit the direction of the highest-level governmental institution within Qiuyue City.

He also wanted to take a look at the various amounts of taxation in recent years in Qiuyue City.

He was curious to see how much in taxes such a city, with a population of nearly five million, could submit in a month.

And then, there was the Lu Family, akin to the emperor of Qiuyue City.

How much could they submit in taxation in a month?

…

Due to some stringent requirements from the Luo Family in Qingshi City.

The location of the highest-level governmental institution in Qiuyue City was situated in the most bustling center of the city.

However, although the location of the city’s highest-level governmental institution was excellent.

The construction of the buildings…

was somewhat unexpected.

“Brother, is this the location of Qiuyue City’s highest governmental institution?”

Outside several scattered buildings that seemed somewhat dilapidated with age,

Luo Yao asked a young man who appeared to be guarding the gate in a low voice.

“Yes, that’s right.”

“This is the place where Qiuyue City’s highest governmental institution is located.”

“But who are you?”

“This place involves many secrets; ordinary people are not allowed to get close.”

“If there’s nothing important, you better leave quickly.”

“Don’t cause trouble for yourself.”

The young man, cloaked in a black and red robe with a steel blade hanging at his waist,

looked at Luo Yao and then turned his gaze to Luo Ze, who was standing behind with a Longsword and a blank expression on his face.

After a moment of silence, he couldn’t help but speak up to warn.

Although the highest-level governmental institution of Qiuyue City seemed quite desolate,

the power guarding this place was actually very strong.

Although the majority of the Cultivators guarding this place were people from the Lu Family of Qiuyue City,

“Alright.”

“As long as I’m not in the wrong place, then there’s no problem.”

After saying this, Luo Yao walked forward.

He seemed to want to bypass the person in front of him, directly entering the highest governmental institution of Qiuyue City to take a look.

“What do you think you’re doing?”

“Didn’t I say this place is filled with secrets, and ordinary people shouldn’t come in?”

The young man at the gate saw that Luo Yao seemed not to have listened to his words,

so he blocked Luo Yao’s path in silence.

Blocking the way ahead for Luo Yao.

“Interesting…” Looking at the young man in front of him, Luo Yao smiled slightly, then he quietly asked the young man, “Do you know who I am?”

The young man calmly replied, “I’ve told you, there are too many secrets here; no matter who you are, you can’t go in.”

The smile remained on Luo Yao’s face, “Even if I am from the Luo Family in Qingshi City, it’s not allowed?”

Upon hearing these words, the young man hesitated for a moment.

“From the Luo Family in Qingshi City?”

The youth narrowed his eyes slightly, lifted his head, and scrutinized the Luo Yao in front of him as well as the expressionless swordsman, Luo Ze, standing behind him.

Shortly after, the young man made way for him to pass.

This person was not simple, the young man was very clear about that.

However, what he hadn’t expected was…

that this person’s identity was from the Luo Family of Qingshi City.

If this person truly was someone from the Luo Family in Qingshi City, then he naturally had no right to block his path.

As for whether what the person said was true or false,

the young man had no doubts whatsoever.

He had said it from the beginning.

This place involved too many secrets for ordinary people to approach.

If so, and this person still dared to come in openly,

it indicated that his identity was absolutely genuine.

After all, it was unlikely that anyone would jest with their own life.
