Chapter 695: Chapter 335: The City Lord of Qiuyue City?_2
“The Lu Family actually has a second cultivator at the Blood Refinement Realm?”
“I haven’t really heard much about it before…”
“Judging from this guy’s appearance, he must be the Great Elder of the Lu Family from within Lu Gongcheng, right?”
“Unexpectedly, this guy can barely contend with several Viscera Refinement Prefection stage Shadow Guards, and one at the Viscera Refinement Initial Stage.”
“Within Qiuyue City, the strength of this Great Elder from the Lu Family is already considered to be top-tier.”
...
“Moreover, in the past, there has never been news that this Great Elder from the Lu Family’s cultivation had broken through to the Blood Refinement Realm.”
“This old thing, he really knows how to hide…”
Luo Yao narrowed his eyes slightly.
He watched the man in front of him, struggling against several Shadow Guards, his face already turning a deep red.
It seemed that he could fall to the Shadow Guards at any moment, this Great Elder Lu Gongcheng from the Lu Family.
He couldn’t help but sigh with regret and shook his head.
Truth be told, if this Lu Family’s Great Elder were allowed to hide for a little longer,
and given a few more decades of painstaking cultivation,
who knows at what level his cultivation could have reached.
Even becoming the kind of top-tier familial power under the Qingshi City Luo Family’s command was a possibility.

However, that’s a pity.
Since he came here,
the Great Elder’s cultivation has already been exposed, so obviously…
this Great Elder of the Lu Family no longer has the privilege to continue cultivating in obscurity.
And for the Lu Family, let alone becoming the sort of top-tier family under the Qingshi City Luo Family,
even just continuing to survive in this world,
and extending the Lu Family’s lineage in this world,
is probably going to be wishful thinking.
Oh, right.
He seems to have forgotten that the head lineage of the Lu Family seems to have fled already.
If the current head of the Lu Family lineage can evade the Shadow Guards’ search,
and find a new place to live…
then the bloodline of the Qiuyue City Lu Family could continue to exist on this land.
Otherwise, it would be difficult.
…
The Great Elder of the Lu Family, though strong,
under the siege of a group of Shadow Guards,
soon, he could only fall powerlessly inside this assembly hall.
As for the other high-ranking members of the Lu Family in the hall,
they too mostly fell at this location.
Actually, such an outcome for the Lu Family
should have been anticipated from the moment when Lu Jiancheng, the current head of the Lu Family, sent people to lay hands on Luo Yao, the heir to the Luo Family of Qingshi City.
“With the fall of the Lu Family, the biggest trouble in Qiuyue City has also come to an end,”
“After this, if I want to handle the affairs of Qiuyue City better, even to control this vast Qiuyue City more effectively,”
“I feel I need to find a puppet force that can replace me in controlling Qiuyue City.”
“Such a force can’t be too weak, or too strong.”
Luo Yao thought to himself in his heart.
After all, if it’s too weak, it would be unable to control the vast lands of Qiuyue City and the familial powers within it.
And if it’s too strong,
then there’s a likelihood it could break free from the control of the Qingshi City Luo Family.
It could easily develop ambitions of its own.
Although it’s true that even so, there would still be no shake to the rule of the Qingshi City Luo Family,
dealing with such a situation is still quite troublesome.
So, if it can be solved all at once, of course, it’s better to just solve it once and for all.
…
After the fall of the Qiuyue City Lu Family,
Luo Yao then quietly walked through a part of Qiuyue City with Luo Ze and Zhen, who was like an old neighbor.
The area of Qiuyue City is large.
The familial land of the Qiuyue City Lu Family is also large.
However, for various reasons,
the Qiuyue City Lu Family and Qiuyue City itself have separated, becoming two different worlds.
Even if the Qiuyue City Lu Family has fallen,
for the entire Qiuyue City and those common people within, there would be little impact.
…
Qiuyue City.
Within the highest governmental institution of the Prefecture Yamen.
At this time, Luo Yao, the heir to the next Family Head of the Luo Family, sat silently in an armchair.
Squinting his eyes slightly, he swayed his body gently.
Meanwhile, he pondered over certain matters in his heart.
“Right, I’ve been in Qiuyue City for quite some time now, and it seems I haven’t even met the nominal City Lord of this place…”
As he thought to himself.
Luo Yao waved his hand and summoned a Shadow Guard.
After giving a few instructions, he requested the City Lord of Qiuyue City be brought before him.
Then he silently closed his eyes, and ceased to speak.
…
As time passed by.
About the time it takes to brew a pot of tea later.
Yu Chuanxing, the City Lord of Qiuyue City, arrived before Luo Yao.
However, upon arriving in front of Luo Yao.
Yu Chuanxing didn’t have the courage to disturb Luo Yao, who sat with his eyes closed, seemingly resting.
Therefore, with no other choice,
he could only stand there silently, waiting.
He didn’t know how much time had passed.
The Luo Yao, half-reclining in an armchair, finally slowly opened his eyes and took a quiet glance at Yu Chuanxing by his side.
After contemplating for a moment, Luo Yao asked in a low voice, “Are you the City Lord of Qiuyue City?”
Yu Chuanxing wiped the nonexistent sweat from his forehead and nodded repeatedly, saying, “Yes, I am indeed the City Lord of Qiuyue City…”
Luo Yao observed Yu Chuanxing, then looked into the distance.
After pondering for a moment, he continued, “If I’m not mistaken, the Yu Family should be supporting you from behind, correct? The strength of the Yu Family within Qiuyue City might not compare to the former Lu Family, which dominated like an emperor over this land, but it should at least barely make it into the top ten families in Qiuyue City, right?”
Hearing this, Yu Chuanxing became even more flustered.
Although he didn’t quite understand what the Young Family Head before him intended to say,
answering the Young Family Head’s questions was always the right thing to do at a time like this.
“Yes, that’s correct…”
Luo Yao yawned slightly, and sat up a bit straighter.
Once again he looked at Yu Chuanxing before him.
After a period of silence,
suddenly, Luo Yao said to Yu Chuanxing, “Would your Yu Family like to become Qiuyue City’s second Lu Family?”
Yu Chuanxing was stunned upon hearing this.
After a long while, he raised his head and stole a glance at Luo Yao.
After much consideration, he finally nodded.
Honestly, if possible…
Who wouldn’t want their family to grow stronger and even become the second Lu Family within Qiuyue City?
However, though Yu Chuanxing was the City Lord of Qiuyue City,
he was a very clear-headed man.
He was acutely aware that even with his status as City Lord, he could accomplish nothing without the support of the great clans of Qiuyue City.
Hence, reluctantly,
he could only sit high in his position, turning a selectively blind eye as needed.
But now…
the situation seemed a bit different.
Luo Yao, the Young Family Head and heir to the next Family Head of the Qingshi City Luo Family, had spoken such words to him.
This unexpectedly unearthed the desires hidden within Yu Chuanxing’s heart, bit by bit,
and as time trickled by, those desires were rapidly swelling.
Still, desire is one thing,
but Yu Chuanxing’s mind was still dominated by absolute rationality.
He dared not assume the role of Qiuyue City’s second Lu Family.
But if possible, to be a faithful dog wagging its tail by the side of the Qingshi City Luo Family, helping them control this vast Qiuyue City, and monitoring everything within it,
this seemed to be not so unattainable.
With this thought in mind, the look in Yu Chuanxing’s eyes gradually became firmer.
He silently looked at Luo Yao before him and softly inquired,
“Young Family Head, what do you wish for me and the Yu Family behind me to do?”
