Chapter 204: Luo Yong’s Thoughts, The Doom of the Jiang Family
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
After the complete breakdown of negotiations with the Luo Family,
the people from the Jiang Family were driven out of the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
“Why?”
“On what grounds does the Luo Family do this?”
“And that Luo Yao, actually for a few lowly women, gave up on my sister…”
Outside the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
Jiang Wugui, who was the young master of the Jiang Family, glared at the Luo Family territory before him.
In his eyes, rage burned even fiercer.
“Wugui, the marriage alliance has failed, we must hurry back to prepare…”
Jiang Yan looked at Jiang Wugui by his side.
He silently sighed in his heart.
He wanted to say some words of reproach.
But, he just couldn’t bring himself to say them.
“Uncle Jiang, are we just going to leave like this?”
“Not going to talk to the Luo Family again?”
“If it had been the Luo Family Patriarch…”
Jiang Wugui spoke in a low voice, but before he could finish, Jiang Yan had already silently walked away.
“Uncle Jiang, Uncle Jiang…”
Jiang Wugui watched as Jiang Yan gradually disappeared into the distance.
He glanced at Jiang Yan, then back at the Luo Family Ancestral Land behind him.
With no other choice, he could only follow the steps of the departing Jiang Yan.
…
In Qingshi County City, Luo Family Ancestral Land,
there was a mysterious and quaint courtyard.
At this moment, Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family, was sitting quietly under a Stone Pavilion.
In his hands, he held a cup of steaming tea.
He sipped silently while gazing into the distance.
Tea, when it is cold, is certainly fine.
But if you always drink it cold, it also lacks a bit of interest.
“Have the people from the Jiang Family left?”
After finishing the cup of hot tea in his hands,
Luo Changfeng suddenly asked in a low voice toward his seemingly empty surroundings.
“Master, the people from the Jiang Family have already left…”
Luo Dong, an old butler with grey-white long hair and a slightly stooped figure, suddenly appeared behind Luo Changfeng.
Bowing slightly, his face showed utmost respect.
“And that boy Luo Yao?”
“How did he perform?”
Narrowing his eyes and pondering for a moment, Luo Changfeng asked again.
With his head still lowered, Luo Dong replied softly, “Young Master Luo Yao conducted himself with dignity and restraint, fully complying with your wishes, Master. The lad is quite clever…”
“Oh? Is that so?”
Luo Changfeng nodded slightly and said to Luo Dong with a calm expression, “In that case, let’s increase Luo Yao’s treatment by fifty percent, and have that boy come to me tomorrow. I have some things I need to discuss with him…”
With his head still lowered, Luo Dong answered, “Yes, Master.”
After speaking, Luo Dong suddenly vanished from the courtyard.
And after the old butler Luo Dong left,
there were only two people left in the courtyard at this moment.
Luo Changfeng, sitting under the Stone Pavilion, and Ruan Liuli, who stood silently behind him, dressed in tight black garments with a dagger tied to her waist, her expression unnaturally calm.
“Ruan Liuli…”
Suddenly, Luo Changfeng called out to Ruan Liuli behind him in a low voice.
Ruan Liuli stepped forward.
Then, she slightly lowered her head.
It seemed as though she was waiting for Luo Changfeng’s command.
“What do you think will become of the Jiang Family after they have lost the ‘tiger’s skin’ of my Luo Family?”
Ruan Liuli, upon hearing this, fell into deep thought. “Complete annihilation?”
Ruan Liuli’s voice was cold, and her answer was succinct.
However, this reply was very much characteristic of her.
“I think the Jiang Family will still continue in Shang Heng District. It’s just that their clan’s power might shrink significantly after this…”
Luo Changfeng spoke softly.
Ruan Liuli nodded silently.
But on her youthful and pale face, there clearly appeared a shade of disbelief.
“Hey, you really shouldn’t doubt it,”
“We’ll just wait and see!”
“You’ll know in time…”
After saying these words, Luo Changfeng no longer paid attention to the Shadow Guard Commander Ruan Liuli by his side.
He just continued to silently drink the hot tea.
Indeed, Ruan Liuli had already become the sole Commander among the Shadow Guards.
Not only because of her exceptional combat strength,
but also because her talent and potential were undoubtedly the highest among all the Shadow Guards.
For the other Shadow Guards, reaching the Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage might be the peak of their lives.
Ruan Liuli, however, was stuck at the Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage primarily because the effect of the second generation Yellow Grade Epiphyllum Elixir was somewhat too weak.
Otherwise, this youngster likely wouldn’t have settled for just the Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage.
…
After the failed alliance and the breakdown with the Luo Family,
the group from the Jiang Family headed toward the direction of Shang Heng District without stopping.
During the journey, the Luo Family did not stop them.
Thus, on this journey, the Jiang Family’s people would spend considerably less time than they did on their way to the Luo Family.
And as the people from the Jiang Family gradually embarked on their journey home,
Luo Yong, who was situated at the border of Huai Shui County and Yellow Mountain County,
had, at this time, finally returned to the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
…
As time passed,
it was now the peak of noon.
The temperature outside had already reached an extremely high point.
Staying outside for a long time, without getting literally sunburned to death,
getting sunstroke at the least seemed inevitable.
However, compared to outside,
in the vast expanse of Qingshi City and the extensive Luo Family Land, Luo Yong did not feel any of the heat.
He actually thought it felt somewhat cool.
