Chapter 491: Chapter 233: The Great Flame Dynasty’s Backup Plan?_2
In the end, it was just making a wedding dress for someone else.
“Looking at it this way, it seems that my stinky boy, Luo Chuan, choosing to join the Fire Sword Immortal Sect was actually not a bad decision, was it?”
Luo Ping glanced at Lu Jun beside him and couldn’t help but say with a laugh.
Only at this moment did Lu Jun, who was beside Luo Ping, barely crack a smile.
He brought the cup of spiritual energy tea he was holding to his lips.
Taking small sips, he moistened his throat, and his expression returned to calm once again.
“If we really have to put it plainly, our Qingshi City Luo Family does have some connection to the Immortal Sect, even if it’s just clinging to the coattails of the Fire Sword Immortal Sect…”
Lu Jun spoke with a calm demeanor.
Of course, whether brandishing the influence of the Fire Sword Immortal Sect was of any use,
was naturally another matter altogether.
Anyway, as long as you know that my Qingshi City Luo Family does have ties to that legendary Immortal Sect, that should be enough.
As for the extent of the relationship between the Luo Family and the Immortal Sect?
You’ll need to weigh that carefully for yourself.
…
In a blink of an eye,
another day had passed.
At dawn, when the sky had not yet fully brightened,
in Qingshi City, Luo Family Ancestral Land,
within a courtyard that always exuded an air of mystery and ancientness,
built with special green stones,
Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family, sat in silence.
At the moment, he was quietly holding a cup of clear tea and drinking.
Standing by his side was a Shadow Guard Commander clad in black, with a pale complexion
and an aura of coldness emanating from head to toe.
“So, you’re saying that the Great Flame Dynasty has possibly ousted one of its two Mortal Transcendence Ancestors?”
Luo Changfeng turned his head in surprise as he listened to the words of Ruan Liuli beside him.
Ruan Liuli simply nodded her head in silence.
“Do you know which Mortal Transcendence figure the Great Flame Dynasty has dispatched?”
After a moment of silence, Luo Changfeng asked again.
This time, Ruan Liuli silently shook her head.
For the Shadow Guards, a secret force with ranks no higher than the Blood Refinement Realm, obtaining this message was already quite an achievement.
Luo Changfeng knew he shouldn’t expect anything more.
Even though he regarded himself as invincible within his own realm,
and battling beyond his level, with his rich reserve of trump cards, probably wouldn’t present a great challenge,
Mortal Transcendence was still Mortal Transcendence.
Mortal Transcendence, shedding mortal dust, a half step from becoming an immortal.
Mortal Transcendence Realm, the last and greatest realm among the Five Realms of Mortality.
This is a cultivator who is half a step into the path of immortal cultivation.
Luo Changfeng ought to show some respect to cultivators of the Mortal Transcendence Realm.
“If the Great Flame Dynasty has indeed dispatched one of their two great Mortal Transcendence Ancestors, then it’s perfectly normal for the Great Flame Dynasty’s forces within the Da Feng Dynasty’s territory to opt for a counterattack on the White Lotus Prefecture’s White Brahma Temple, given that they have been severely suppressed by the White Brahma Temple during this period.”
“Now, with the advent of a Mortal Transcendence figure from the Great Flame Dynasty, how could they not organize some effective counterattacks?”
Underneath the Stone Pavilion,
Luo Changfeng muttered softly,
while quietly sipping from the cup of tea in his hand, bringing it to his mouth for small sips.
Even occasionally, he would cast his gaze towards the direction of the White Brahma Temple,
as if trying to discern how much the supremely evil entity, the White Brahma Lotus, had grown by now.
“Besides this matter, has anything else happened on the side of the Great Flame Dynasty?”
After finishing the tea in his hand,
Luo Changfeng quietly set down his teacup.
Then, turning his head to look at Ruan Liuli, he asked in a low voice.
In response to this question, Ruan Liuli once again silently shook her head, offering no verbal reply.
“Nothing else?”
Luo Changfeng nodded slowly to himself.
He had gradually grown accustomed to Ruan Liuli’s silent and taciturn nature.
But the peace in the Great Flame Dynasty,
made Luo Changfeng feel quite unexpectedly astonished.
How could this be?
Luo Changfeng did have some understanding of the Great Flame Dynasty beyond the borders of the Da Feng Dynasty.
In the past, in order to stabilize its regime,
to quickly quell the chaos within its own territory,
the royal family of the Great Flame Dynasty committed not a small amount of slaughter.
Do not look at the current peace and tranquility within the territory of the Great Flame Dynasty.
In reality, it was all just a facade.
These were merely illegitimate products born under the heavy pressure imposed by the royal family of the Great Flame Dynasty.
If there were any disturbances in the Great Flame Dynasty,
If the Great Flame Dynasty’s foundation were harmed,
Luo Changfeng was certain, within three months’ time,
the vast Great Flame Dynasty would inevitably fall into endless turmoil.
If it were just internal disturbances within the Great Flame Dynasty, that would be one thing, as the royal family could easily resolve them.
But if chaos erupted both inside and outside the Great Flame Dynasty at the same time,
then the situation could get rather nasty.
Moreover, do not doubt this.
Such a scenario is very likely to occur.
One must know, the enemies of the Great Flame Dynasty beyond its borders are far from few in number.
At the moment, they are not visible.
That just means that the enemies of the Great Flame Dynasty have all quietly hidden themselves away.
But if the Great Flame Dynasty should show even a slight unrest,
these enemies of the Great Flame Dynasty would undoubtedly spring up like bamboo shoots after rain, surging crazily and relentlessly.
Trying to forcefully bite off a piece of territory from the vast lands of the Great Flame Dynasty.
…
In a small courtyard,
Luo Changfeng sat alone under the Stone Pavilion, lost in thought for a long time.
He waved his hand towards Ruan Liuli at his side.
Then, he continued to drink from the cup of tea in his hand that he had not yet finished.
After receiving Luo Changfeng’s instructions,
Ruan Liuli slightly bowed her head and slowly disappeared into the void.
Hiding somewhere in a corner near the ancient courtyard.
“White Brahma Temple…”
“Great Flame Dynasty…”
“Now, even the cultivators of the Mortal Transcendence Realm are gradually coming into the open…”
“It seems that the chaos within the Da Feng Dynasty cannot be calmed down in a short time.”
“I just don’t know, after the cultivators of the Mortal Transcendence Realm from the Great Flame Dynasty make their move,”
“between the White Brahma Temple and the Great Flame Dynasty, who will be stronger or weaker?”
Luo Changfeng’s eyes slightly narrowed.
He pondered silently in his heart.
However, no matter how he thought, it seemed that the outcome would favor the White Brahma Temple within the White Lotus Prefecture.
After all, the branch of White Brahma Temple in White Lotus Prefecture had planted the evil White Brahma Lotus,
which had now reached the stage where it could materialize from nothingness and descend into the world.
Moreover, as time passed by,
that White Brahma Lotus, known as one of the most evil entities between heaven and earth, would only grow stronger and more powerful.
In the beginning, the Mortal Transcendence Realm cultivators from the Great Flame Dynasty might have held some advantage, or even been on par with the Mortal Transcendence Realm cultivators from the White Brahma Temple.
But if the evil White Brahma Lotus continued to expand its domain, even slowly spreading its roots into the power held by the Great Flame Dynasty within the borders of the Da Feng Dynasty…
Then the following situation would become very unfavorable for the Great Flame Dynasty.
And when one side held home-field advantage, while the other did not,
it would be clear at a glance who was stronger and who was weaker.
“Great Flame Dynasty, oh Great Flame Dynasty…”
“Thinking about it this way, you do seem quite pitiable…”
“However, whether the Great Flame Dynasty is pitiable or not,”
“what does it have to do with me, Luo Changfeng?”
