Chapter 561: Chapter 268: Pulling the Tiger’s Skin? Hidden Danger??_2

“So they’ve chosen the Royal Feng Family?”

At this thought,

Luo Changfeng couldn’t help but shake his head silently.

If that was the case, then so be it.

After all, it wasn’t too terrible a situation.

If one were to say that the Great Fla Dynasty’s Royal Yan Family had chosen to ally with the Luo Family of Qingshi City, thereby forsaking the Royal Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty,

then that would have been a rather troubleso matter for the Luo Family of Qingshi City.

“The affairs of the Great Fla Dynasty and the Da Feng Dynasty need not concern us too much for the ti being.”

“Neither the Great Fla Dynasty’s Royal Yan Family nor the Da Feng Dynasty’s Royal Feng Family would likely make a move lightly in the short term.”

“However, the situation with the Five Elents Immortal Sect seems to carry so weight.”

As he spoke, Luo Changfeng turned his head.

He looked at Ruan Liuli beside him, whose complexion was chillingly pale and features extrely delicate,

Her beauty, it seed, had markedly improved.

After contemplating for a mont, Luo Changfeng asked in a soft voice, “Are you sure that the person from the Five Elents Immortal Sect who arrived at the Great Fla Dynasty’s Imperial Palace is just an Inner Sect Disciple with a cultivation level at the Initial Realm of Blood Cultivation?”

Upon hearing the question,

Ruan Liuli didn’t utter a word but simply nodded silently.

After obtaining the answer he wanted,

Luo Changfeng turned back and murmured with a smile, “If that’s the case, then this matter becos quite interesting. The Great Fla Dynasty does have so connection with the Five Elents Immortal Sect, but not much of one, and although the Five Elents Immortal Sect has sent people into Great Fla Dynasty territory, the identity of their envoy doesn’t seem significant enough.”

“Going back to square one and thinking carefully, the Crown Prince of the Great Fla Dynasty is rely a disciple among many under one of the Five Elents Immortal Sect’s elders.”

“His status is just one of the many direct disciples under that elder.”

“By such reasoning, the relationship between the Great Fla Dynasty and the Five Elents Immortal Sect should not be so close as to warrant protection for the forr.”

“Yet even so, a disciple from the Five Elents Immortal Sect has still reached the Imperial Palace of the Great Fla Dynasty.”

“Does this imply that the Royal Yan Family of the Great Fla Dynasty wishes to flaunt this connection as a tiger’s skin, to borrow montum, thus deterring surrounding familial powers?”

“Interesting, truly interesting…”

…

With a wave of his hand,

Luo Changfeng dismissed Ruan Liuli from his side.

Then, he sat alone quietly in the small courtyard under the Stone Pavilion,

His eyes slightly narrowed,

Contemplating matters concerning the Great Fla Dynasty and the Five Elents Immortal Sect,

While silently waiting for the tea that had boiled.

“It should be about ready, right?”

With another wave, he dispersed the black fla beneath the teapot floating in mid-air,

Then Luo Changfeng silently picked up the teapot suspended in the air,

Poured himself a cup of tea into a ceramic teacup,

And finally, he brought the teacup to his lips with so relish,

After blowing on it a few tis, he began to sip slowly.

“I haven’t had tea for over half a month, yet the flavor remains unchanged.”

“Good, good…”

Nodding in satisfaction,

Luo Changfeng slowly set down the teacup in his hand.

He lifted his head and gazed into the distance, towards the territories of the Da Feng Dynasty and the Great Fla Dynasty.

Now that the two empires had joined forces,

The Da Feng Dynasty aside, the Great Fla Dynasty, in anticipation of a potential war,

Even intended to borrow the power of the Five Elents Immortal Sect.

Normally, family powers would not rashly oppose the Royal Yan Family of the Great Fla Dynasty upon learning of the relationship between them and the Five Elents Immortal Sect, especially knowing a sect mber had arrived at the Great Fla Dynasty,

If for no other reason, just to save face for the Five Elents Immortal Sect,

They would not easily opt to turn against the Great Fla Dynasty at this juncture.

Thus, the Great Fla Dynasty could focus all its attention on the Luo Family of Qingshi City and the White Brahma Temple.

But evidently, as for the relationship with the Five Elents Immortal Sect,

Whether it be the Luo Family of Qingshi City or the White Brahma Temple, known as one of the three great Demonic Paths in Buddhism,

They wouldn’t feel any fear because of this.

…

In the blink of an eye,

several more days had passed.

During these days, the situation within the Da Feng Dynasty had beco increasingly chaotic.

This was due to a series of actions by the Da Feng Dynasty and the Great Fla Dynasty in recent tis.

The massing of large armies at the borderlands brought endless pressure to the civilians and family powers there.

As a result, the long-standing peace within the Da Feng Dynasty,

as ti went by, gradually returned to the chaos of the old days.

Amidst the rising chaos within the Da Feng Dynasty,

countless civilians began to flee into the deep mountains,

seemingly in an attempt to evade a war that might break out later.

Apart from those who fled into the mountains,

there were many other civilians and family powers.

Upon learning about the collaboration between the Great Fla Dynasty and the Da Feng Dynasty,

they began moving towards places they considered to be the safest.

Naturally, there was no need to ntion the capitals of the imperial palaces where the two dynastic powers resided.

Besides those capitals, Qingshi City, a massive and mysterious urban stronghold, also caught the attention of the wealthier civilians and family powers.

As for the so-called White Lotus Prefecture?

Of course, nobody would think of running there.

What is the White Lotus Prefecture?

That is the lair of the White Brahma Temple, one of the three major Demonic Path forces within the monastic order.

Today’s White Lotus Prefecture had thoroughly beco a paradise for those forces of the Demonic Path.

Countless civilians, countless family powers,

Would rather avoid the White Lotus Prefecture at all costs.

So, how would they even think of fleeing to the White Lotus Prefecture?

Would that not be like courting death?

…

Qingshi City, Luo Family Ancestral Land.

Inside the room where the Luo Family Patriarch resided,

Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, was sitting silently in the main seat.

His brows furrowed slightly,

he held a report filled with nurous pieces of information about official affairs.

His already slightly wrinkled brows could not help but tense even more.

The situation inside the Da Feng Dynasty was becoming increasingly complicated.

It seed that it was precisely the rise of these chaotic scenes

that led to a series of chain reactions.

Among them, one issue that troubled Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, was

the sheer number of civilians and the people from families and various powers that had entered Qingshi City in recent days was simply too high.

In fact, it was so high that it was giving Luo Ping a headache.

After several expansions, Qingshi City

now had the capacity to accommodate tens of millions of people.

If squeezed, fitting twice that number wouldn’t be a problem.

With the significant increase in Qingshi City’s population, the returns from various industries such as real estate naturally saw a considerable short-term boost.

This all seed quite good at a glance,

as if everything was moving in a positive direction.

But in reality, hidden dangers were gradually appearing before the eyes of Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family.

This was just a matter of days, and the population in Qingshi City had already escalated to this extent.

If ti went on, or even if war truly broke out,

and an even larger number of people tried to crowd into Qingshi City,

what then should be done?
