Chapter 17: Chapter 17 Luo Ping: I Have to Make a Choice Now!_1
“Father, what’s the point of thinking about these things when they’ve already happened?”
Dressed in white, Luo Chuan said with a smile in a low voice.
As the head of the family, he had control over the lives and deaths of hundreds of family members.
He had outright rejected the marriage alliance with the Hu Family.
Such an action was, of course, somewhat irresponsible.
Even though the marriage alliance with the Hu Family was clearly purposeful.
But if it was simply as a father, rejecting such an unreliable marriage proposal for his daughter,
Then there was certainly no mistake.
“Yes, you’re right,”
Luo Ping nodded silently, then continued, “Since it has already happened, speaking of these things is indeed pointless.”
“But…”
“Chuan’er, what I want to know is,”
“Will our Luo Family really come to the point of extinction, as the head of the Hu Family said?”
Upon hearing this, the smile on Luo Chuan’s face gradually faded.
In those jet-black, profound eyes brimming with wisdom,
Flashes of light passed by transiently.
However, it was just a moment later.
Luo Chuan sighed somewhat helplessly and said in a low voice, “The situation is not optimistic.”
“Father, our Luo Family is not without a chance,”
“As long as Uncle An can truly cooperate with you.”
“As long as Uncle Yong isn’t thinking about making his mark in these troubled times.”
“Our Luo Family won’t necessarily come to the worst end, it’s just…”
As he spoke, Luo Chuan couldn’t help but give a bitter smile and shake his head, “It’s just, achieving that is easier said than done, right?”
From what Luo Chuan knew of his two uncles,
Uncle An was alright, even though he was not completely aligned with his father.
But at least, Uncle An wouldn’t recklessly run around in these troubled times.
At least, Uncle An wouldn’t watch the family step by step into a place of no return.
But as for his Third Uncle, Luo Yong…
To say that Third Uncle Luo Yong was a buffoon would be a compliment.
Although Third Uncle controlled most of the Luo Family’s elite house servants,
And possessed the Bone Refinement Perfection realm, making him the strongest in the family,
Even in the whole Qingshi Town, looking at Uncle Yong’s public strength,
He could at least be ranked among the top five.
Moreover, if he really fought desperately,
Luo Chuan believed that his Third Uncle could definitely trade blows to the limit with any top expert in Qingshi Town.
But the biggest problem was that his Third Uncle was extremely emotional.
Even if it were made clear to Third Uncle Luo Yong that the Luo Family might face dangers if he went on adventures,
His Third Uncle might still get carried away by other people’s instigations and act impulsively,
Temporarily forgetting the safety of the Luo Family.
…
“So, father,”
“The time left for you, for our Luo Family, is running out.”
“You…make your decision as soon as possible!”
After saying these words, Luo Chuan gave a slight bow to his father and then,
He turned and left the hall where they received guests.
“Is my time really running out?”
Watching his son’s retreating figure, Luo Ping’s mood grew increasingly heavy.
Earlier this morning, he had met with the family’s Ancestor Changfeng.
Visibly, Elder Changfeng’s complexion seemed paler than it had been a few days ago.
His vitality had also declined compared to the previous days.
Even the decaying aura that had dissipated a bit recently,
He had smelled it once again by Elder Changfeng’s side that very morning.
Although Luo Ping was somewhat reluctant to believe it,
it seemed that the signs of Patriarch Changfeng’s final burst of energy were gradually fading away.
The day of Elder Changfeng’s predestined end…
was probably not far off.
“Perhaps, what Chuan’er said before was right.”
“Now, the Zhao Family is watching our Luo Family like a hawk.”
“And the Hu Family is also lurking nearby, covetously watching.”
“Although neither family has made a move yet, as soon as Patriarch Changfeng passes away…”
“I fear that a crisis for our Luo Family will follow one after another.”
“If we truly wish for the bloodline of our Luo Family to continue, we indeed should choose a desolate mountain and live in seclusion!!!”
…
In the blink of an eye, another day had passed.
In Qingshi Town, within the Luo Family Ancestral Land,
in the courtyard where the Ancestor of the Luo Family resided,
Luo Changfeng was sprinting back and forth relentlessly on a patch of open ground.
Gusts of wind howled through the courtyard.
His speed seemed to be increasing as time passed.
After about ten more minutes had elapsed,
when Luo Changfeng had nearly exhausted his Qi-Blood,
only then did he stop practicing the Feng Ying steps.
He opened his own unique “Golden Finger.”
[Name: Luo Changfeng!]
[Lifespan: 3 days+]
[Cultivation: Bone Refinement Late Stage+ (85/300)]
[Qi-Blood: 1330 (-33) (ps: Safe usable Qi-Blood is 100 points!)]
[Cultivation Technique: Mortal Top-Grade·Fierce Tiger Power (Comprehension: 30%+), Mortal Top-Grade·Feng Ying Steps (Comprehension: 1.5%+) (Incomplete)]
These were his latest attributes for the day.
As a day had passed, the lifespan that remained had decreased by one day.
Due to his impending end, Qi-Blood was severely depleted.
Losing 5 experience points in a day, resulting in the current 85, was considered normal.
Regarding the Qi-Blood value,
it was because Luo Changfeng had chosen not to use Qi-Blood for leveling up the previous day, so there were 50 more points available for safe use.
“This diminishing lifespan is a major problem.”
“If it’s not resolved, Qi-Blood will continue to decline.”
“But my cultivation is still a small realm and a bottleneck away from the Organ Refinement Realm.”
“It will take some time to raise my cultivation to the Organ Refinement Realm.”
“So, I should first focus on enhancing my cultivation.”
“Once I reach the Organ Refinement Realm, my lifespan will extend by twenty years. By that time, the issue of insufficient lifespan will naturally be resolved.”
With this in mind, Luo Changfeng stretched out his sin-ridden right hand,
and tapped the plus sign next to the cultivation.
Of course, he did not allocate all his Qi-Blood to his cultivation.
Instead, he separated an additional 20 points of Qi-Blood to add to his lifespan, which was only three days remaining.
He certainly did not want to die because of a miscalculation while performing this extreme operation.
…
After adding eighty points of Qi-Blood to his cultivation, along with two days to his lifespan,
a mysterious and powerful force surged once again within Luo Changfeng’s body.
This force circulated within him once,
strengthening the bones in every part of his body slightly, before slowly dissipating.
“Now, it’s just a matter of waiting quietly.”
“Waiting until I enhance my cultivation to the Viscera Refinement Realm.”
“Then, within this vast Qingshi Town, there probably won’t be anyone who can threaten me, Luo Changfeng!!!”
