Chapter 439: Chapter 207: Attack? No, It’s Time to Develop!!_2
…
Before long, approximately two more months had passed.
Under the command of Yan Buming, the current emperor of the Great Flame Dynasty.
The influence of the Great Flame Dynasty within the territories of the Da Feng Dynasty began to temper its aggression towards the lands of Wan Shan Prefecture under Luo Family control, gradually decreasing bit by bit.
Aside from the ceaseless attacks by the Great Flame Dynasty.
The rest of the time seemed to gradually subside.
Continuously growing and strengthening, the power of the Great Flame Dynasty within the Da Feng Dynasty’s territory.
It seemed, as if waiting for the right moment to arrive.
Then to seize Wan Shan Prefecture in one fell swoop.
…
Apart from the changes in the power of the Great Flame Dynasty within Da Feng Dynasty’s territory during this period.
The White Brahma Temple situated in the White Lotus Prefecture.
In this span of time, the monks of the White Brahma Temple once again became gradually active throughout the Da Feng Dynasty’s territory.
Previously, due to the emergence of Luo Changfeng.
It led to the White Brahma Temple being somewhat more well-behaved for a time.
But as time slowly passed.
And as the strength of the White Brahma Temple gradually increased and improved.
The abbot of the White Brahma Temple declared.
“Some damn mystery Mortal Transcendence Initial Stage cultivator?”
“Before, we feared you, and that was that.”
“But now, if you dare show up before me again.”
“See if I won’t thrash you and settle this!”
Of course, if it weren’t absolutely necessary.
The abbot of the White Brahma Temple naturally would not leave the White Lotus Prefecture, let alone the White Brahma Temple’s vicinity.
After all, the sacred White Brahma Lotus of the White Brahma Temple.
Was rooted and growing in the skies above the White Brahma Temple.
The location of the White Brahma Temple was the home ground of its abbot.
In his own home ground, among cultivators of the same realm, that abbot could be said to be unbeatable.
If he crossed one minor realm, the abbot would have at least a ninety-nine percent chance of victory in a fight.
Even if he were to cross two minor realms.
From the Mortal Transcendence Initial Stage to confront a cultivator in the Mortal Transcendence Late Stage.
The White Brahma Temple’s abbot also dared to claim invincibility.
If it were from Mortal Transcendence Initial Stage facing a cultivator at the Mortal Transcendence Perfection realm.
Having an even match, the abbot naturally wouldn’t dare to speak recklessly.
But if it were merely about fleeing to save his own life, there likely wouldn’t be too much of a problem.
However, all of this was predicated on the assumption.
That he was fighting an antagonist beneath the sacred White Brahma Lotus of the White Brahma Temple.
Otherwise…
The White Brahma Temple’s abbot, not to mention transcending realms.
If he could achieve an even match against an adversary in the same realm, that would already be quite impressive.
…
Da Feng Dynasty.
Luo Mountain Prefecture, Qingshi City, Luo Family Ancestral Land.
Inside the room where the Luo Family Patriarch resided.
At this moment, Luo Ping, the current Luo Family Patriarch, was sitting silently in the seat of honor.
He was drinking the hot tea in his hand while his head was bowed, dealing with the numerous and exceedingly complex affairs of state on the desk.
Although there were many affairs requiring his attention,
Luo Ping’s mood was quite good.
The main reason was that recently, the Great Flame Dynasty, which had fully taken over the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family, seemed to have gradually reduced their attacks on Wan Shan Prefecture under his Luo Family’s command.
Afterwards, they seemed to be focusing on developing their own forces.
Even though Luo Ping didn’t know what game the Great Flame Dynasty was playing,
At the least, this matter was somewhat beneficial for his Luo Family, wasn’t it?
As the current Luo Family Patriarch, Luo Ping then wouldn’t need to worry too much about the situation in Wan Shan Prefecture anymore. Wasn’t that reason enough to be happy?
“Lu Jun…”
As time passed.
As Luo Ping was finishing up the governmental affairs at hand.
He suddenly raised his head, looking at Lu Jun beside him who seemed to be considering how to more efficiently and effectively develop the Luo Family’s territories and improve the well-being of the people.
After a moment of silence, he asked Lu Jun in a low voice, “What do you think the Great Flame Dynasty is plotting?”
“Not long ago, a remarkably large force was mobilized by them to relentlessly assault the Wan Shan Prefecture lands under the command of my Luo Family,”
“However, during this period, the Great Flame Dynasty has been continuously weakening their own offensive efforts,”
“Instead focusing on accumulating and developing their own strength.”
“What do you think, what would the Great Flame Dynasty want to do next?”
…
Luo Ping’s words slowly echoed within the room filled with many people.
Upon being addressed, Lu Jun heard these words.
He was momentarily startled, then furrowed his brow.
After pondering for a short moment,
he spoke softly.
“The situation within the Da Feng Dynasty’s borders is not as simple as one might imagine.”
“The Royal Feng Family, the White Brahma Temple within the White Lotus Prefecture,”
“and us, the Luo Family.”
“The strife was already chaotic enough, but now the Great Flame Dynasty has emerged like a catfish, adding to the turmoil…”
As he spoke,
Lu Jun seemed to realize that his words weren’t quite addressing Luo Ping’s question.
Thus, he changed tack and continued, “Perhaps, Yan Buming, the current Emperor of the Great Flame Dynasty, has also come to realize the chaos within the Da Feng Dynasty’s territory. He has noticed that the Da Feng Dynasty is not as simple as he imagined, that the Luo Family is not a bone that can be easily gnawed on. Furthermore, there’s the White Brahma Temple behind them, which seems eager to stir.”
“Therefore, left with no choice, the Great Flame Dynasty had to act this way.”
“Gradually, bit by bit, weakening the offensive against us.”
“And then, shifting the focus onto the development and accumulation of their own strength.”
“Only in this way, when the opportunity arises in the future, will they be better equipped to seize it!!!”
Having said this,
Lu Jun picked up a teacup beside him.
He drank in one gulp the clear spring from the cup, which had been soaked in Spirit Stones and was brimming with spiritual energy.
This clear spring soaked with Spirit Stones
was one of the benefits for people like Lu Jun.
Though it cost some of the spiritual power from within the Spirit Stones to overflow,
it could slightly extend the life expectancy and improve the physique of those continuously dealing with political affairs, making them less prone to sickness.
This was also a case of getting rewards for what one has paid for.
Of course, these ideas all came from Luo Ping himself.
If the Ancestor of the Luo Family, Luo Changfeng, were to evaluate this,
he could only give Luo Ping a big thumbs-up.
On a normal day, it would seem like he was quite a down-to-earth person.
But unexpectedly, this fellow was so heartlessly cunning.
From the Luo Family’s perspective, it seemed that they paid a considerable price.
Those who drank the water soaked with Spirit Stones seemed to have received an enormous benefit.
But in the eyes of Luo Changfeng, this was merely a more effective method of exploiting others.
For just a small cost, they gained even harder work from those people and their loyalty to the Luo Family—why not do it?
“Is that so?”
Inside the room where the Luo Family Patriarch was located,
Lu Ping, seated in the place of honor, nodded silently after hearing this,
apparently finding some reason in what Lu Jun said.
In fact, the actual situation was indeed so.
The state of affairs within the Da Feng Dynasty’s territory was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
Whether it was the Royal Feng Family or their Luo Family,
or the White Brahma Temple in the White Lotus Prefecture, known as one of the Three Great Demonic Forces of Buddhism,
none of these three parties was easy to deal with.
Now, after the Great Flame Dynasty completely took over the assets of the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family,
the dynasty had mobilized an extremely large force and had been attacking for a considerable period.
Yet, the gains of the Great Flame Dynasty were almost nil.
Under such circumstances, it was understandable that the dynasty would choose to gradually weaken the attack on Wan Shan Prefecture and focus on their own development.
“If it really is like this, the actions of the Great Flame Dynasty seem reasonable,”
“But, just because the Great Flame Dynasty acts this way, can it really calm itself down?”
“Even, gradually accumulate and bolster its own strength?”
In the room, Luo Ping, seated in the main position, wasn’t quite convinced the Great Flame Dynasty could achieve this.
After all, the territories of the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family were surely no good lands!!!
