Chapter 116: Chapter 90: The First Organ Refinement Realm Cultivator to Fall in Huai Shui County_3
“`
“The more the various powers within the Da Feng Dynasty fought endlessly, the more chaotic the situation became.”
“It’s like a pool of water that has been muddled, and I’m increasingly unable to see clearly the current state of affairs.”
“Before, I thought it only necessary to deal with the forces within Huai Shui County.”
“Now it seems, I have been somewhat naive…”
…
A moment later.
Tang Qian, Tang Huaiping, and the elder of the Tang Family dressed in a brown robe all returned to the Tang family estate.
“Elder Brother Tang Qian.”
“What do you think about this matter?”
“Is it really forces from outside Huai Shui County that have set their sights on our Tang Family?”
In a mysterious courtyard within the Tang family estate,
the elder dressed in a brown robe,
was currently asking Tang Qian in a low voice, his face expressionless.
“Perhaps it’s the trouble caused by the Ink Jade Kirin…”
While speaking, Tang Qian slowly opened his tightly shut eyes: “The Ink Jade Kirin, being one of the three divine steeds of the Da Feng Dynasty, has an extremely illustrious reputation.”
“Within the Da Feng Dynasty, countless people have their eyes on it.”
“Our Tang Family of Huai Shui County is not guilty of anything, yet because of the Ink Jade Kirin, we have become guilty.”
Upon hearing this, the elder dressed in a brown robe thought for a moment before asking, “Elder Brother Tang Qian, why must it be forces outside Huai Shui County that have made a move against our Tang Family? Why not the King of Huai Shui, or the Chen Family, which has existed for countless years and possesses extremely deep foundations?”
As soon as the elder in the brown robe spoke these words,
Tang Qian couldn’t help but laugh.
“Huai Shui County is not that big of a place; those at the Organ Refinement Realm within it can be considered the highest authority.”
“Though being at the Viscera Refinement Initial Stage doesn’t count as the most outstanding being,”
“it shouldn’t result in losing one’s life in an instant when meeting an enemy of the same Organ Refinement Realm.”
“Therefore, this matter can only be the doing of forces beyond Huai Shui County.”
“As for who exactly did it?”
“That is no longer important.”
…
In the blink of an eye, another day passed.
After some time traveling,
Luo Yong managed to smoothly lead the fifty Ink Jade Kirins back to the Luo Family’s territory.
Upon returning to the Luo Family’s territory, he immediately went to the place where the fifty Ink Jade Kirins, previously intercepted from the Tang Family, were hidden.
“Elder Changfeng, these are the fifty Ink Jade Kirins intercepted from the Tang Family this time.”
In a secluded mountain, away from human habitation,
On a plain that had been converted into a horse ranch,
Luo Yong was speaking these words with a proud look on his face to Luo Changfeng standing next to him.
Of course, in the presence of outsiders,
or in front of the younger generation,
Luo Yong naturally wouldn’t show such an attitude.
But in front of his own family’s patriarch, being a bit more childish was not a problem.
“You’ve done well with this matter,”
Luo Changfeng nodded and commended.
“Right,” after laughing for a while, Luo Yong seemed to remember something and quickly said to Luo Changfeng beside him: “Patriarch Changfeng, that Thunderstrike Talisman is quite effective. The power of three hundred stacked together is hard for an Organ Refinement Realm cultivator to withstand, as they are directly turned to ash.”
“If we have a few thousand, or even tens of thousands of them,”
“we could eliminate all the family forces that dare to oppose our Luo Family.”
“Wouldn’t this vast Huai Shui County then belong to our Luo Family?”
Upon hearing the words of Luo Yong beside him, Patriarch Changfeng couldn’t help breaking out into cold sweat.
Not to mention whether unifying Huai Shui County too soon was a good or bad thing,
exposing the Luo Family to other, much more powerful family forces.
Just the fact that the input and the gains are disproportionate,
already made Patriarch Changfeng internally reject such a suggestion.
What would he gain from unifying Huai Shui County?
Food? Population? Land area?
While these things may seem good, for Patriarch Changfeng, they were not of much use.
Rather than unifying Huai Shui County at the cost of thousands, or tens of thousands of Thunderstrike Talismans,
he would prefer to give these talismans to the Wan Dan Sect, to have them sell the talismans on his behalf.
Then, exchange those Thunderstrike Talismans for Spirit Stones.
Wouldn’t that be a delightful thing to do?
…
“This cold and cruel world, ultimately, respects strength,”
“The law of the jungle, survival of the fittest,”
“This is the only rule for survival on this continent.”
“Even if you command an army of millions, or tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions,”
“what will you do when facing a single Immortal Realm Cultivator?”
“Even without mentioning those in the Immortal Realm, just the Mortal Transcendence below it, what will you do?”
“In front of such terrifying beings, how could an army consisting of ordinary people protect you?”
“It’s fine to want to go out and make your mark, to have your fun,”
“but don’t put all your thoughts into it, causing your own cultivation to stagnate…”
After speaking, Patriarch Changfeng then gave Luo Yong a look.
Subsequently, he placed his hands behind his back,
and silently vanished from Luo Yong’s line of sight.
“Is strength everything?”
Watching the direction in which his patriarch had left, Luo Yong’s expression turned a bit lost.
However, it was only a brief moment before
his eyes regained the firmness they held before.
Patriarch Changfeng was right,
but his actions were not wrong either.
The law of the jungle, survival of the fittest, this indeed is the only rule for survival on this continent.
But within a family, there always have to be some who give.
If possible, why should others reign supreme,
why can’t their Luo Family?
