Chapter 507: Chapter 241: News Spreads, Turmoil Approaches the Great Flame Dynasty_2
Regarding the White Brahma Temple, there were even vague signs of restraint.
However, under such circumstances,
Ancestor Yan of the Yan Family still fell within the White Brahma Temple.
Ancestor Yan was adept in the use of fire techniques, while the Sword Ancestor excelled with a longsword in hand.
His swordsmanship was exquisite, sharp.
In the Da Feng Dynasty, the Great Flame Dynasty, and even across the adjoining lands,
The Sword Ancestor of the Yan Family could be called the foremost.
With the fall of Ancestor Yan, both inside and outside the territory of the Great Flame Dynasty, a period of turmoil and some ripples would arise.
But these were not concerns for Yan Buming.
With the presence of the Sword Ancestor, the Great Flame Dynasty, as well as the Royal Yan Family, would still be able to stand firm on this land.
However, the White Brahma Temple within the White Lotus Prefecture,
was slightly worrying for Yan Buming, the current Emperor of the Great Flame Dynasty.
The actions of the Royal Yan Family of the Great Flame Dynasty had firmly established an unbreakable enmity with the White Brahma Temple.
Moreover, the base of the Great Flame Dynasty, although outside of the Da Feng Dynasty,
was actually not particularly far from its borders.
If the White Brahma Temple sought revenge against the Great Flame Dynasty,
Going out of its way,
to ally with those forces that the Great Flame Dynasty had consistently suppressed, to make a move against it…
Then the situation of the Great Flame Dynasty would become exceptionally grave.
Although, logically speaking,
the likelihood of the White Brahma Temple undertaking such actions was not high.
But as these were matters that threatened the safety of his own house,
he still needed to give it careful consideration.
…
Since the Great Flame Dynasty’s power within the territory of the Da Feng Dynasty was thoroughly defeated by the White Brahma Temple,
time seemed to accelerate, passing exceedingly quickly.
It seemed as if in the blink of an eye,
about half a month had already passed.
During this half-month period, the White Brahma Temple within the White Lotus Prefecture spent most of the time quietly dealing with the assets left behind by the Great Flame Dynasty.
Countless roots of the White Brahma Lotus surged into the territories formerly controlled by the Great Flame Dynasty,
and within a short time, took control of an even larger number of puppet creatures.
The monks of the White Brahma Temple, after dealing thoroughly with the desperate resistance of the Great Flame Dynasty and other forces, returned to the stronghold of the White Brahma Temple, that is, the White Lotus Prefecture.
It seemed they planned to go into seclusion again for a while,
to properly assimilate the rewards of their victories gained during this time.
The Royal Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty, seeing that the White Brahma Temple within White Lotus Prefecture, after capturing the territories of the Great Flame Dynasty, seemed to have no immediate plans to attack the Luo Family in Qingshi City and apply pressure,
decided, as a result, to focus on development and continue observing the situation.
After all, as time passed,
once the White Brahma Temple completely consumed all the assets of the Great Flame Dynasty,
they would eventually make their move against the Luo Family in Qingshi City.
And since that was the case, why should the Royal Feng Family within the Da Feng Dynasty rush to take action against the Qingshi City Luo Family?
Being the beneficiary of others’ disputes
was not a desirable outcome for the Royal Feng Family.
…
Da Feng Dynasty, Luo Mountain Prefecture, Qingshi City.
On a secluded and scarcely populated patch of land within the Luo Family Ancestral Land,
a young man was earnestly wielding a Spiritual Sword, his expression extremely determined as he swung it continuously towards the front.
At the young man’s side, Luo Yao, who was to be trained as the next Family Head of the Luo Family,
was silently leaning against a centuries-old tree at this moment.
His eyes were slightly narrowed, hands placed in front of his chest.
A face full of resignation and a touch of fatigue.
“Why have you come?”
Luo Ze, who had been swinging his longsword, slightly turned his head and glanced at Luo Yao by his side, who seemed to be enveloped in weariness.
He fell silent for a moment before asking aloud.
“What, am I not allowed to come?”
Luo Yao’s words carried a trace of weakness.
Luo Ze quietly ceased his sword-swinging motions and slightly crouched down.
He picked up a spiritual gourd with a vast space beside him.
After gulping down several mouthfuls of water rich with spiritual energy, he finally redirected his gaze back to Luo Yao.
After some thought, he posed another question, “Aren’t you busy all day long, learning and dealing with a myriad of affairs? How do you suddenly have the time to visit me and watch me practice the sword?”
With a hint of helplessness, Luo Yao said, “Humans always need rest, after all, even if I am now being primed as the next Family Head of our clan…”
“After all, if one works every day without rest, wouldn’t one become no better than a beast?”
Facing Luo Yao’s comparison,
Luo Ze made no comment on his own views.
He simply tilted his head back slightly, continually drinking from the special gourd filled with water enriched with spiritual energy.
“By the way, do you know about that incident that happened recently?”
“Looking at you practicing your sword every day, immersed in the Sword Dao,”
“you might not have heard about it, right?”
As silence fell between the two for a moment, Luo Yao once again initiated the conversation.
“A recent incident?”
Luo Ze thought for a moment, then shook his head.
During this time, he had dedicated all his time to cultivating.
He had never paid attention to anything outside.
“Recently, there was a death in the White Lotus Prefecture, a Mortal Transcendence from the Great Flame Dynasty,” Luo Yao mentioned.
Luo Ze’s eyes narrowed slightly, a glint flickering within them, “A Mortal Transcendence died recently?”
Luo Yao nodded before continuing, “Moreover, I’ve heard that in the Great Flame Dynasty, there are two ancestors; one is Ancestor Yan, and the other is Sword Ancestor. Ancestor Yan is slightly weaker, while Sword Ancestor is stronger. Now, with one of Great Flame Dynasty’s only two Mortal Transcendence cultivators suddenly perishing, there will probably be some turmoil in the Great Flame Dynasty for a while, and it might even stir up a few storms?”
After giving it some thought, Luo Ze then inquired, “If that is the case, does it mean that the Mortal Transcendence in White Brahma Temple is stronger than the ordinary Mortal Transcendence?”
Luo Yao laughed, not answering immediately. Instead, he teased the youngster before him, Luo Ze.
“You little fellow, are you finally interested?”
“Seeing you always practicing swordsmanship or deep in cultivation, I thought you had no interest in any of the outside affairs.”
Luo Ze lowered his head slightly, falling silent once more.
For a moment, an intense silence once again enveloped them.
Luo Yao could only withstand such an atmosphere for a brief period.
Therefore, he gave the answer to the question Luo Ze had asked.
“The demise of the Mortal Transcendence from the Great Flame Dynasty,”
“Logically, the Mortal Transcendence within White Brahma Temple should indeed be much stronger than the ordinary one.”
“But in this battle, there were also other factors involved.”
“It seems the Mortal Transcendence from the Great Flame Dynasty chose to enter the depths of White Lotus Prefecture to quickly resolve the conflict and to seek out White Brahma Temple’s Mortal Transcendence.”
“Such an action already laid the groundwork for the fall of the Mortal Transcendence from the Great Flame Dynasty.”
“White Lotus Prefecture, what kind of place is that?”
“That is the home ground of White Brahma Temple, their stronghold.”
“Furthermore, this isn’t even the most important part.”
“The most crucial point is that the holy relic of White Brahma Temple, known among cultivators as one of the most sinister entities, the White Brahma Lotus, is situated deep within White Lotus Prefecture.”
“A Mortal Transcendence of White Brahma Temple, combined with a sinister entity like the White Brahma Lotus that has grown to the point where it can materialize from nothingness and descend upon the world.”
“Even if the Mortal Transcendence from the Great Flame Dynasty were defeated and perished within White Lotus Prefecture, it isn’t something particularly surprising.”
“It was a battle between Mortal Transcendence cultivators, and indeed, it was rather brief.”
“But this also serves to highlight the terrifying aspects of the Mortal Transcendence of White Brahma Temple and the sinister White Brahma Lotus…”
