Chapter 739: Chapter 357: The Old Monk of White Brahma Temple Returns_2
And Luo Yao, who was sitting silently beside Luo Ping,
Seemed to be having a rather tough time.
After leading the eradication of the Bin Family within Qingshi City’s inner city,
Luo Yao had thought he could enjoy a period of leisure.
But what he hadn’t expected was…
That the Family Head had once again arranged a pile of tasks for him.
If it weren’t for his firm refusal just now,
The nearly one month’s time would have been completely filled by that old man Luo Ping.
…
In the blink of an eye, another two or three hours passed.
After Luo Yao had dealt with nearly all of the political affairs before him,
He finally lifted his head and slowly exhaled.
At the same time, he wiped the nonexistent sweat from his forehead with his right hand.
Just as he was about to sneak a short break amidst the busyness,
His gaze was gradually drawn to the Family Head Luo Ping beside him.
What he could see was…
Luo Ping, as the Family Head, was now half reclining on a lounge chair.
Cradling a cup of tea that still seemed to steam in his hands,
He silently observed the strategists around him dealing with political affairs.
At this moment, he seemed extremely leisurely.
Naturally, the other strategists were occupied with their political affairs,
And had no time to pay attention to Luo Ping in such a state.
But Luo Yao felt somewhat different.
“Damn…”
“Being the hands-off shopkeeper sure is comfortable.”

Looking at the leisurely Luo Ping,
A sense of imbalance arose within Luo Yao’s heart.
However, while he felt imbalanced,
He would naturally not say it out loud, or complain about it in front of Family Head Luo Ping.
Luo Yao was not foolish; speaking out would bring no benefit and might even attract Luo Ping’s resentment.
He would naturally not do anything so detrimental to himself.
“Hmm?”
Luo Ping, who was leisurely enjoying the tranquility,
Suddenly sensed the gaze of Luo Yao beside him.
Tilting his head,
He turned to look at Luo Yao, who was quietly seated next to him.
For a moment, their eyes met,
And the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward.
Realizing the awkwardness, Luo Yao looked down again.
He randomly picked up a document from the desk,
Opened it, and silently began to read through it.
With that, their eye contact came to a complete end.
…
In Qingshi City, deep within the Luo Family Ancestral Land,
In a courtyard that always exuded an aura of antiquity and mystery,
Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family,
Was sitting quietly under an ancient stone pavilion.
While cradling a cup of tea that had long since gone cold, he gazed silently into the distance.
“So, the Bin Family, one of the ten great families of Qingshi City, has been exterminated?”
After a moment of silence with the cup of tea,
Luo Changfeng suddenly asked Ruan Liuli standing mutely by his side.
Ruan Liuli, one of the Shadow Guard Three Great Commanders, silently nodded.
Upon seeing this, Luo Changfeng thought for a while then asked, “What attitude does the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family hold towards this?”
Ruan Liuli, with her head slightly bowed and a respectful yet cool expression, replied, “There has been no reaction, it seems they are not surprised by the destruction of the Bin Family…”
Hearing this, Luo Changfeng nodded silently.
Actually, upon reflection,
This was quite normal.
Perhaps, from the very beginning, the Royal Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty had not expected to achieve anything significant through the Bin Family.
If it remained undetected, that would be quite ideal,
Luo Changfeng waved his hand at Ruan Liuli beside him.
Then, he brought the cup of tea to his lips and drank from it in small sips.
At this moment, Luo Changfeng’s mood had already reached an extremely calm state.
…
Time flew by quickly.
In the blink of an eye, about half a month had passed.
During this half-month, the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family had taken significant action.
The elite troops amassed at the borders of the Da Feng Dynasty.
Launched a slew of attacks on some of the cities along the borders of the Luo Family’s land in Qingshi City.
On the Luo Family’s side in Qingshi City, they naturally put up an active defense.
Although there were victories and losses on both sides,
it was generally the Royal Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty who suffered greater losses.
After all, the Luo Family in Qingshi City mostly chose to defend.
Defending cities, the losses naturally tended to be smaller.
On the other hand, the Royal Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty chose to attack cities relentlessly.
Their losses, naturally, would be greater than those of the Luo Family in Qingshi City.
Actually, if this were merely a war of ancient ordinary people’s kingdoms,
the actions of the Royal Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty would already be rife with signs of failure.
But in reality, this world was home to cultivators.
And powerful cultivators could often dictate the victory or defeat of a war.
So, ultimately, between the Royal Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty and the Luo Family of Qingshi City,
it was still uncertain who was stronger and who was weaker.
It would depend on the battles to come, involving those in the Mortal Transcendence Realm.
Whichever side won in the Mortal Transcendence Realm would be the winner,
and whichever lost in the Mortal Transcendence Realm, perhaps even perishing on the spot, would be the loser.
As for the ordinary troops,
they were merely a tool under the hands of those in the Mortal Transcendence Realm to control various regions.
In fact, those troops didn’t truly have the capability to dominate a war.
…
In the depths of the Luo Family’s ancestral land in Qingshi City,
inside a small courtyard emitting an aura of ancientness and mystery,
Luo Changfeng, as the Ancestor of the Luo Family in Qingshi City,
was sitting quietly under a Stone Pavilion.
Talking casually about something with Ruan Liuli, who was one of the Three Great Commanders of the Shadow Guard.
“You mean to say, that abbot from the White Brahma Temple within the territory of White Lotus Prefecture, seems to have returned?”
Luo Changfeng asked in a low voice.
Ruan Liuli also silently nodded at this moment.
Luo Changfeng narrowed his eyes slightly.
If that were the case, it seemed somewhat problematic.
He had thought that, having obtained a Sky-float Boat, the old monk of White Brahma Temple might choose to stay within the main temple in the Northern Desolate Divine Continent.
Even if he didn’t stay within the main temple in the Northern Desolate Divine Continent,
at the very least, he shouldn’t have returned for a short while.
But the result…
turned out to be somewhat unexpected.
In a short span of time, the abbot of the White Brahma Temple had actually returned to the temple within the confines of White Lotus Prefecture.
The old monk’s actions were clearly going to become a variable in the conflict between the Luo Family of Qingshi City and the Royal Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty.
An unknown variable.
“Heh…”
After contemplating for a long while, Luo Changfeng suddenly let out a laugh.
He realized he might have been overthinking a little.
Even if the Mortal Transcendence Realm old monk from the White Brahma Temple truly became an unknown variable,
what of it?
The Xuanyuan Continent respected strength above all else.
“Survival of the fittest” was the eternal, unchanging law of this vast continent.
As long as Luo Changfeng’s strength continued to grow,
as long as his cultivation could progress from the Mortal Transcendence Late Stage to the perfection of the Mortal Transcendence Realm,
and then, incidentally, to keep adding to his arsenal of trump cards,
what of it if the Da Feng Dynasty and the White Brahma Temple of White Lotus Prefecture joined hands?
