Chapter 787: Chapter 381: Conflict, Yang Family and Mu Family_2
After all, although he was the heir to the next Family Head of the Qingshi City Luo Family,
when it was time to pay, he still had to give the money.
These were the rules set by his own family, and since he was the heir to the next Family Head of the Luo Family, he naturally had to lead by example and follow them strictly.
“Where to next?”
On the streets, Luo Yao wandered aimlessly.
“Sir, the money you’ve given is a bit too much…”
“It’s actually far too much…”
Behind Luo Yao, the owner of the steamed bun stall, upon seeing the Silver Fragments Luo Yao had offered, immediately called out loudly.
At the same time, he waved towards Luo Yao’s retreating figure.
However, Luo Yao simply didn’t feel like paying any attention to the man behind him.
To Luo Yao, Silver Fragments were almost as inconsequential as stones picked up by the roadside.
He had plenty in his storage ring, so much so that he could never spend it all.
So, if it was too much, it was too much.
An excess could be considered a reward for the steamed bun shop’s owner.
If Luo Yao really had to go back and reclaim the excess he had given,
wouldn’t that be merely a waste of his time?
As the heir to the next Family Head of the Qingshi City Luo Family, Luo Yao’s time was extremely precious and couldn’t be squandered lightly.
Uh…
Of course, this was the case within Qingshi City.
If he were in Tianyin City, though,
would his time not be quite so valuable?
…
In the blink of an eye, another day had passed.
Within the inner city of Qingshi City in the Da Feng Dynasty’s Luo Mountain Prefecture,
in the room where the Luo Family Patriarch resided in the Luo Family Ancestral Land,
Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, was sitting quietly in the main seat.
He was dealing with the political affairs at hand while silently sipping the tea in his hands.
Such days were rather enjoyable, except…
While musing, Luo Ping suddenly put down the political matters in his hands and turned his head silently,
looking towards the empty seat beside him.
It was because Luo Yao had not been by his side for several days.
Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, immediately felt that his days were a touch duller than usual.
But if he thought more carefully about the fact that Luo Yao might have to stay in Tianyin City for an entire month,
a smile that was difficult to hide would appear in Luo Ping’s eyes.
Although he had not seen Luo Yao’s true circumstances for himself,
he could still roughly guess…
That boy would definitely complain about his Family Head during his free time.
Yes, that must be the case.
“Family Head…”
Just as Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, sat there in silence, imagining the pitiful expression on Luo Yao’s face,
a guard clad in Spiritual Armor, whose frame seemed quite robust,
was silently approaching the room.
“What is it?”
Luo Ping quietly raised his head and looked at the guard in front of him, inquiring in a low voice.
“Family Head, the Yang Family and the Mu Family…”
The guard slightly bowed his head, speaking with a face full of respect.
However, as soon as the guard started speaking,
Luo Ping, who was sitting in the main seat, couldn’t help but frown slightly.
In his eyes, a deep sense of helplessness emerged.
He felt a headache coming on at the mention of the Yang Family and the Mu Family.
The Yang Family and the Mu Family were among the top powers of the ten strongest families within the inner city of Qingshi City.
Their overall strength was quite formidable.
The influence of their families and the forces under their control were also very strong.
But the problem lay right there.
Such powerful family forces had been archenemies for four to five hundred years.
From the beginning, when they were in Luo Mountain Prefecture, these two great families had been locked in an endless struggle.
And as the power of these two great families settled into the inner city of Qingshi City,
and after they had moved most of their resources and influence into the inner city of Qingshi City,
the struggle between these two great families became even more intense and heated.
It’s true that the area of the inner city of Qingshi City is quite vast.
It can accommodate at least several million people.
Even squeezing in ten million people would not be a problem.
But even so, the struggle between the Mu Family and the Yang Family showed no signs of stopping.
Instead, as time passed, it gradually became more and more outrageous.
Of course, that was not what caused Luo Ping the most headaches.
What really troubled Luo Ping was that the heads of these two great families would come to him to seek justice over practically anything.
For major issues, it was fine for them to seek him out.
But for many trivial matters, the heads of these two families would also come directly to him at the first opportunity.
I mean, with such trivial issues,
how could he not feel a bit of a headache?
Furthermore, as the current Luo Family Patriarch, Luo Ping had many issues that he needed to deal with personally, and he could not easily avoid them.
Therefore, Luo Ping felt even more overwhelmed.
“What is it this time that the heads of the Yang Family and the Mu Family have come to me for?”
Inside the room.
Atop the seat of honor.
Luo Ping, the current Luo Family Patriarch, sighed softly and asked the guard in front of him.
The guard bowed his head silently and then spoke, “It seems to be about the ownership of several business streets…”
Hearing this, Luo Ping’s head began to throb.
Ownership of business streets?
What kind of mess was this?
Who was he? He was the current head of the Luo Family of Qingshi City; if he had to personally handle every trivial matter, where would it end?
As he pondered, Luo Ping’s gaze shifted to the empty seat beside him.
He had initially intended for Luo Yao, who was by his side, to handle this matter.
But as his gaze moved to the empty space,
he suddenly froze.
“Damn, I forgot that kid Luo Yao is still inside Tianyin City…”
Seeing that their Family Head seemed a bit distracted, the guard tentatively prompted again, “Family Head, the current heads of the Yang Family and the Mu Family are still waiting outside the ancestral land, what do you think…”
Luo Ping took a deep breath and then let it out heavily.
Looking somewhat helpless, he whispered to the robust guard in front of him, “Alright, let the two Family Heads come in then…”
After saying this, Luo Ping waved his hand at the guard in front of him.
The robust guard dressed in Spiritual Armor quietly turned and left the room.
About the time it takes to brew a cup of tea later,
the robust guard clad in Spiritual Armor returned to the room.
However, this time, behind the guard were two middle-aged men dressed in splendid attire
but appearing extremely humble.
As these two seemingly humble middle-aged men entered the room,
both of them took a step toward Luo Ping’s direction.
With utmost respect, they clasped their hands in salute toward Luo Ping,
then, unable to contain their urgency, they started to speak.
Nevertheless, Luo Ping, seated at the highest position, waved his hand, interrupting their words.
Luo Ping looked at the two men,
then, after hesitating for a moment, he turned to the Yang Family Patriarch and said softly, “Yang Family Patriarch, you may speak first…”
The Yang Family Patriarch, upon hearing this, was filled with joy.
Speaking first meant that he would have some advantage in the subsequent discussion,
which was naturally something to be pleased about.
Thus, the delighted Yang Family Patriarch began to express the thoughts he had been formulating for a long time to Luo Ping, the current Luo Family Patriarch.
During this time, although the Mu Family Patriarch beside the Yang Family Patriarch showed a displeased expression,
and harbored some worry in his heart,
after all, it was Luo Ping, the current Luo Family Patriarch of Qingshi City, who had spoken.
And there was nothing he could do about it.
