Chapter 200: Luo Changfeng: I’m Somewhat Displeased with the Jiang Family 3
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Perhaps, in Jiang Yan’s heart,
what Young Master Jiang Wugui had said was indeed correct.
However, given the current situation, if their Jiang Family wanted to continue surviving in Shang Heng District,
to avoid being gradually swallowed up by those four major families,
their only lifeline seemed to lie with the Huai Shui County Luo Family.
“Go in…”
After letting out a slight sigh and speaking softly,
Jiang Yan led the group of Jiang Family members behind him, silently walking towards the inside of Qingshi County City.
Qingshi County City was extremely vast.
After having undergone expansion, the area of Qingshi County City was even larger than other county cities.
The number of common folks within Qingshi County City
was also the largest among many cities within Huai Shui County.
Ever since the Luo Family had annihilated the Chen, Tang, and Feng families in one fell swoop,
and taken over the entire Huai Shui County in one go,
this Qingshi County City, with the Luo Family in residence, had become the most favorable and desirable place in the hearts of countless common people within Huai Shui County.
Furthermore, that fellow Luo Ping
would occasionally use Rain Seeking Talismans or Cooling Charms to keep the temperature inside Qingshi County City at a relatively comfortable level.
This led to many people who, after arriving in Qingshi County City, simply refused to leave.
Indeed, they wouldn’t leave even if you killed them.
Instead of being tormented half to death by the high temperatures outside Qingshi County City,
it was better to live a carefree and happy life inside it.
After all, Qingshi City lacked nothing; it had everything one could need.
Brothels, gambling halls, opera houses, and such.
In this place, you could find them all.
Of course, when it comes to gambling halls, the Qingshi City Luo Family exercised strict control.
The gambling halls within Qingshi City were only allowed to be high-end establishments,
accessible only to the wealthy with certain financial means.
Those who were already poor did not have the qualifications to enter.
This was not because the Luo Family looked down on ordinary people.
On the contrary, such rules protected many of the already poor common folk.
There were even countless citizens who constantly praised the Luo Family for this decree.
…
“Qingshi City, Luo Family Ancestral Land, we’ve finally arrived.”
Outside the Luo Family Ancestral Land in Qingshi County City,
Jiang Yan looked at the extremely large, seemingly simple but actually awe-inspiring Luo Family Ancestral Land before him,
and couldn’t help but narrow his eyes slightly.
“Who are you?”
“This is the Luo Family Clan estate, superfluous people are not to approach…”
At the main entrance of the Luo Family Clan estate,
were two servants dressed in grey and at the stage of Bone Refinement Perfection,
standing guard outside the Luo Family Clan estate with expressionless faces.
“Two practitioners at the stage of Bone Refinement Perfection, are they merely gatekeepers within the Luo Family Clan estate?”
Looking at the two people before him,
Jiang Yan momentarily found himself slightly stunned.
On the other hand, Jiang Wugui, the young master of the Jiang Family who stood behind Jiang Yan,
was currently frowning slightly.
A look of displeasure appeared on his youthful face.
…
Jiang Wugui, a young and naïve teenager,
had spent a long time within the Jiang Family estate and had hardly ever gone out to gain experience of the world.
And this time, Jiang Yan had brought him out,
not only because he was the younger brother of Jiang Xiaoyue.
There was another very important reason, which was to take him out to experience the world.
As the Jiang Family Young Master, he would ultimately have to shoulder the mission of expanding the Jiang Family’s power.
Therefore, always staying within the Jiang Family Ancestral Land to cultivate diligently
was not necessarily a good thing.
…
“Dare you obstruct us?”
“Do you have any idea who we are?”
Among the group from the Jiang Family,
before Jiang Yan could say something,
Jiang Wugui, the Jiang Family Young Master standing behind Jiang Yan, silently stepped forward.
With a somewhat icy and taciturn expression,
he just quietly gazed at the two people in front of him.
“I’ve told you, this is Luo Family Clan land, and unrelated individuals should not approach.”
At the entrance of the Luo Family Ancestral Land,
the two servants at the Bone Refinement Perfection stage couldn’t help but feel somewhat displeased.
However, since they hadn’t yet determined the identities of the people in front of them,
no irreconcilable conflict had erupted between the two parties.
Such as coming to blows or directly expelling someone.
And right at this entrance to the Luo Family, the atmosphere among the few individuals gradually became tense.
It was then that Jiang Yan, the leader of the Jiang Family delegation,
finally snapped out of his daze.
He stepped forward and pulled back Jiang Wugui, who seemed ready to erupt.
“Uncle Jiang, what are you doing?”
Jiang Wugui looked at Jiang Yan next to him with some dissatisfaction.
However, Jiang Yan seemed not to hear Jiang Wugui’s words.
He simply bowed slightly to the two individuals before him,
his face bearing a slight hint of apology as he said, “We are from the Jiang Family, one of the Five Great Families’ powers of Shang Heng District. We have come to visit the Luo Family Patriarch. Our visiting card was sent over a few days ago…”
“Shang Heng District’s Jiang Family?”
After exchanging a look,
the two gatekeeping servants stepped back, no longer obstructing the way for this group of Jiang Family members.
“Heh, mere gatekeeping dogs at best…”
Upon entering the Luo Family Clan land,
Jiang Wugui couldn’t help but murmur quietly.
Although the Luo Family gatekeepers heard these words, they didn’t retort.
…
Soon after,
the people of the Jiang Family entered the Luo Family Clan land.
And in a secluded corner within the Luo Family Clan land,
Luo Changfeng stood silently with his hands clasped behind his back, his demeanor quite calm as he looked ahead.
Standing beside him was Luo Dong, the elderly steward of the Luo Family.
“These people, they are from the Jiang Family, one of the powers of the Five Great Families of Shang Heng District?”
After a moment’s silence, Luo Changfeng suddenly inquired in a low voice to Luo Dong beside him.
“Master, these are indeed the people from the Jiang Family of Shang Heng District,” Luo Dong responded with a slight bow, his expression extremely respectful.
Luo Changfeng pondered for a moment, then inquired in a low voice, “And that young man next to Jiang Yan, who is he?”
“That is the son of the Jiang Family Patriarch, Jiang Xiaoyue’s younger brother,” Luo Dong replied, bowing slightly, his demeanor very respectful.
“The son of the Jiang Family Patriarch, Jiang Xiaoyue’s younger brother?”
Hearing this response, Luo Changfeng’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Following a brief period of silence,
he quietly turned around
and while walking toward his own courtyard, he said in a low voice, “I am somewhat displeased with this Jiang Family; they seem not to have assumed the correct attitude. Now that they come to the Luo Family, they are seeking our assistance, not here to bestow any favors upon us…”
