Chapter 48: The Refugee Problem, The Idea of Army Expansion_1

The Jing Family of Qingshi Town, as one of the top families within the town.

Their ancestral land naturally covered a vast area.

Surrounding it completely would still require a considerable amount of ti.

“Sir, the Jing Family has been surrounded.”

Standing beside Luo Yong, the vice general cupped his hands together, bowing slightly as he spoke.

Luo Yong, “Good, now that it’s done, follow into the Jing Family…”

Armored Soldiers, “Yes.”

Now, the Zhao Family had fallen.

Within Qingshi Town, the Luo Family had successfully ascended to beco the new king.

Luo Yong commanded nearly two thousand armored youths within the town.

Dealing with the Jing Family’s issue was rely a matter of flipping his hand.

Moreover, it was even less significant considering the presence of the Ancestor of the Luo Family, a formidable practitioner of the Organ Refinent Realm, within the Luo Family Ancestral Land.

Thus, under Luo Yong’s intimidation,

Jing Chenglong, the current Family Head of the Jing Family, had no choice but to obediently hand over control of the family’s gambling houses.

After all, the arm could not twist the thigh.

Even if the Jing Family stubbornly resisted until the last mont and did not hand them over to the Luo Family, what would that achieve?

The entire Qingshi Town was already under the control of the Luo Family.

It could even be said that everything within Qingshi Town had beco the assets of the Luo Family.

If the Luo Family desired, those gambling houses would ultimately be forcibly taken by them.

Rather than clashing head-on, it was better to simply hand them over.

The reason why the Jing Family was initially unwilling to voluntarily surrender,

was mainly because Jing Chenglong wanted to gamble.

He bet that the Luo Family did not place much importance on the gambling business.

However, it now appeared…

that he, Jing Chenglong, had seemingly lost that bet.

“Father, did you really just easily hand over all of our Jing Family’s gambling houses to the Luo Family?”

“All the books in our family’s collection, as well as half of our assets, also given to the Luo Family?”

“Did you truly not resist at all?”

Within the Jing Family Ancestral Land, Jing Hongying, daughter of Jing Chenglong.

Upon hearing of the situation, she imdiately confronted Jing Chenglong.

Her pretty face seed sowhat dissatisfied.

The red-tasseled spear she held in her hand was being gripped tightly, emitting creaking sounds.

“Hongying, the Zhao Family has already been annihilated.”

“The Luo Family of Qingshi Town has ascended to the throne, becoming the new king; this has already beco a fait accompli.”

“Let’s not even ntion the more than two thousand armored youths in Luo Yong’s hands.”

“Just the Viscera Refinent practitioner within the Luo Family Ancestral Land is beyond what our Jing Family can cope with…”

Jing Hongying clenched her teeth, still unconvinced as she said, “Is Viscera Refinent, above Bone Refinent, truly that terrifying?”

Jing Chenglong sighed helplessly and spoke in a low voice, “Above Skin Refinent is Bone Refinent, and beyond Bone Refinent lies Viscera Refinent.”

“Becoming a practitioner of the Skin Refinent Realm is easy.”

“Although it’s sowhat difficult to break through from Skin Refinent to the Bone Refinent Realm, it’s not impossible.”

“But the difficulty of advancing from Bone Refinent to Viscera Refinent is unquestionably beyond your imagination.”

“The power of the Organ Refinent Realm is also inevitably far beyond what you expect.”

“I can say this, even if our Jing Family had ten masters at Bone Refinent Perfection, they would still be no match for the Ancestor of the Luo Family…”

As Jing Chenglong’s words echoed throughout the room,

Jing Hongying gradually beca a bit stunned.

The hint of defiance on her pretty face

seed to gradually dissipate as well.

“Father, if we have more than two thousand armored youths in our hands within Qingshi Town,”

“can our Jing Family encircle and kill a cultivator in the Organ Refinent Realm?”

Jing Chenglong couldn’t help but slightly lower his head at this.

After pondering for a mont, he replied, “If it’s just over two thousand sturdy, sowhat strong armored youths, they’re like ants before a cultivator in the Organ Refinent Realm, easily killed.”

“If these more than two thousand armored youths, however, were all practitioners in the Skin Refinent Realm,”

“perhaps, they might force a cultivator in the Organ Refinent Realm to exert a fair amount of strength.”

“If these more than two thousand armored youths were all practitioners in the Bone Refinent Realm, then there might be a chance to encircle and kill a cultivator in the Organ Refinent Realm.”

“It’s just… if our Jing Family truly had an army of more than two thousand, all at the level of Bone Refinent Realm,”

“why would we still bother with these small benefits in Qingshi Town, competing with other families?”

“With such an army, all at the level of Bone Refinent Realm,”

“it wouldn’t be impossible for our Jing Family to carve out a territory and establish our own kingdom in these chaotic tis…”

After resolving the matter with the Jing Family,

the not-too-big-yet-not-too-small Qingshi Town finally returned to its forr tranquility.

On the streets, people gradually dared to appear.

A massive group of refugees also started to flow into Qingshi Town again.

Placing a huge burden on the not-so-large Qingshi Town.

Qingshi Town, Luo Family Ancestral Land.

In the room where the Luo Family Patriarch was,

Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, sat quietly in the main seat.

As he flipped through docunts about the family and various issues concerning Qingshi Town, his brow inevitably furrowed.

There were no problems on the Luo Family’s end.

They had even seen a significant improvent in comprehensive strength due to the absorption of assets left behind by the Zhao Family, as well as from the Jing and Hu Families.

However, the situation in Qingshi Town… appeared sowhat pessimistic.

As the gates of Qingshi Town reopened and ti passed,

the number of refugees pouring into Qingshi Town grew increasingly.

Even the public security within the town began to deteriorate due to the influx of a large number of refugees.

Countless starving refugees, like swarms of locusts passing through, frantically looted any food they could lay their eyes on.

So local family powers within Qingshi Town were better off, with plenty of guards at ho to ensure their families were without worry.

However, for the massive group of ordinary people within Qingshi Town, they were sowhat out of luck.

Those who suffered losses were predominantly from these ordinary civilian groups.

In the past, Luo Ping only needed to manage the Luo Family’s affairs.

He could choose to turn a blind eye to those ordinary people who suffered losses.

But now it was different, now the whole of Qingshi Town belonged to the Luo Family.

With the civilians suffering losses, it would inevitably affect the subsequent developnt of Qingshi Town.

In such circumstances, Luo Ping naturally could no longer turn a blind eye as he used to do.

“Otherwise, let the third brother continue to expand the army and enhance the number of troops in Qingshi Town?”

“Then, gradually maintain the public order within the town?”

Luo Ping thought to himself and silently nodded.

It seed that aside from this thod, there were no better solutions now.

Just in ti, the Luo Family had gathered a substantial amount of gold and silver from the Zhao, Jing, and Hu Families.

The Luo Family could use this money to increase the size of the town’s military force,

and slightly improve their control over Qingshi Town.
