Chapter 534: Chapter 255: The Shou Family Has Fallen, Little Guy Miao Qi?_1
Time flew by, and several days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the Da Feng Dynasty, Luo Mountain Prefecture, Qingshi City,
Within the Luo Family Ancestral Land, a certain courtyard that appeared slightly ancient and constantly emanated waves of mysterious aura.
At this moment, Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family,
Was sitting quietly under a simple Stone Pavilion.
He held a porcelain teacup in his hand, his eyes slightly squinted.
Drinking the cold tea in his hand, he silently gazed into the distance.
“You’ve arrived?”
After finishing the tea in his hand, Luo Changfeng spoke softly towards the empty space in front of him.
“Yes, I’ve arrived.”
“The journey here left me quite thirsty. Brother Luo, I’ll have some tea first; we can talk about matters later…”
Fu Qiu, dressed in a somewhat flashy purple robe,
Nonchalantly picked up a porcelain teacup from the stone table,
And then poured himself a full cup of tea.
Not until he had drained the tea in his hand,
And the cool liquid slowly slid down his throat,
Did Fu Qiu, the Deputy Sect Master of the Da Feng Dynasty branch of Wan Dan Sect, slowly exhale a breath.
Apart from Fu Qiu,
Behind him stood a young man who seemed somewhat simple and honest.
In stark contrast to the carefree elder,
The youth stood silently with a slightly restrained demeanor,
Even afraid to breathe too heavily.
“So, is that Miao Qi?”
“The talisman crafting prodigy you mentioned?”
Luo Changfeng waited until Fu Qiu had finished drinking his tea and caught his breath before he asked softly.
“Yes, that’s Miao Qi.”
“His talent for crafting talismans is one in a million, ten million, even one in a hundred million.”
“Now I have brought the young man here to see you.”
“What do you think of him?”
Fu Qiu turned and looked at the very restrained Miao Qi standing beside him,
He smiled, then with a hint of pride continued to speak.
“Such high praise?”
Luo Changfeng, listening to Fu Qiu’s words,
Couldn’t help but narrow his eyes slightly.
The elder before him, Fu Qiu, had always been miserly in his praise for others.
And now this elder suddenly spoke so highly of the youth before him,
It suggested that Miao Qi must indeed possess some unique qualities.
Otherwise, this elder wouldn’t have used phrases like “one in ten million” or even “one in a hundred million.”
…
Under the Stone Pavilion,
After taking a few more glances at the extremely nervous and constrained Miao Qi,
Luo Changfeng shifted his gaze back onto the elder, Fu Qiu.
“We’ll talk about the young man’s affairs later.”
“For now, have you come to me suddenly for any other matters?” Luo Changfeng glanced at Fu Qiu, and then asked in a low voice.
Fu Qiu put down the porcelain teacup in his hand,
He stroked his long beard at his chin.
With an awkward smile, he then said helplessly, “As expected, Brother Luo has guessed it right. This time, apart from bringing the young man Miao Qi for you to see, there is another matter I feel is necessary to discuss with you…”
Luo Changfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, “Oh? What is it?”
Instead of replying immediately to Luo Changfeng’s question, the elder Fu Qiu looked at the youth, Miao Qi, beside him.
Not until Miao Qi very consciously left the courtyard,
And disappeared from their line of sight,
Did Fu Qiu pour himself another cup of tea,
Drinking it while he said quietly,
“The Shou Family in Nanhuang Divine State has fallen…”
A glint passed through Luo Changfeng’s half-closed eyes, “The Shou Family in Nanhuang Divine State has fallen??”
Fu Qiu silently nodded his head,
And then continued to speak, “Due to the Shou Family in Nanhuang Divine State being too blatant in their greed, this led to a temporary truce between our Wan Dan Sect and Divine Elixir Sect. We’ve chosen to peacefully coexist for the time being and to deal with those restless Alchemist Families under our command who are trying to take advantage of this period to seize the elixir market.”
After pondering for a moment, Luo Changfeng asked, “Earlier, wasn’t it said that the Nanhuang Divine State was a pawn pushed forward by various Alchemist Families on the Xuanyuan Continent, as a test to probe the limits of Wan Dan Sect’s Main Sect and Divine Elixir Sect’s Main Sect?”
“Now, has this game gone awry?
“Leading to such a disaster?”
The man in the purple robe, Fu Qiu, shook his head calmly and then said, “No, initially, the Nanhuang Divine State indeed was a pawn moved by various powers on the Xuanyuan Continent, trying to test Wan Dan Sect and Divine Elixir Sect. But as the Shou Family in the Nanhuang Divine State swallowed more and more of the elixir market, and their power inflated significantly,”
“It seems that the Shou Family in the Nanhuang Divine State gradually became intoxicated with the expansion and inflation of their power.”
“Their actions grew larger, more rampant, more unrestrained,
“To the extent that even our Wan Dan Sect’s Main Sect and Divine Elixir Sect’s Main Sect seemed to have been forgotten by them.”
Not until Fu Qiu finished speaking,
Did Luo Changfeng finally understand the ins and outs of the matter.
To put it simply, the Shou Family in the Nanhuang Divine State was no longer interested in being a pawn.
The Shou Family in the Nanhuang Divine State, due to the rapid increase in their strength,
