Chapter 354 Benefits and Sacrifices?

In the evening

The sun sets.

The afterglow of the setting sun spreads over this land.

Such a situation adds a different kind of beauty to this land.

"You say"

"What on earth is the Feng family of the Dafeng Dynasty thinking?"

"Suddenly they started to attack our Luo family in Qingshi City."

"Logically speaking, the best time for the Feng family of the Dafeng Dynasty to take action was when they cooperated with the Yan family of the Great Yan Dynasty."

"But what is unexpected is"

"The Feng family of the Dafeng Dynasty actually watched the Yan family of the Great Yan Dynasty fall."

"And after the territory and resources of the royal Yan family were almost completely eaten up by our Luo family and the Baifan Temple in the Bailian Mansion."

"This Dafeng Dynasty, the royal Feng family, suddenly attacked us again."

"I don't know what gave the royal Feng family the confidence"

Qingshi City, Luo family land.

On an open space where no one has passed for many years.

Next to a giant tree that is hundreds of meters high and has existed for at least hundreds of years.

Luo Yao, the next heir to the Luo family in Qingshi City.

As he spoke, he couldn't help but sigh slightly.

And the young man on the open space, with his strong upper body exposed, holding a long sword and waving it constantly.

After listening to this uninterrupted complaint.

He slowly stopped his sword practice.

He put the spiritual weapon long sword in his hand back into the scabbard.

He picked up a special spiritual weapon gourd filled with water.

He raised his head and gurgled and drank it.

After the young man drank several sips of water and rested for a while.

The young man slowly walked towards the direction where Luo Yao was.

And Luo Yao was concerned about such a scene.

He still didn't stop talking.

Instead, he talked more and more.

"And there is..."

"There are actually several family forces under the Luo family of Qingshi City, which directly chose to side with the Feng family of the Dafeng Dynasty."

"Even because of the actions of those family forces."

"Several cities were occupied by the Feng family of the Dafeng Dynasty."

"Although the loss of those cities does not affect the overall situation."

"But the occurrence of such things will always make people feel a little bit uncomfortable."

"Aze, don't you think so?"

Luo Yao raised his head silently, and he looked at the young Luo Ze in front of him with a helpless expression, and he kept sighing in a low voice.

"In this case, there are still family forces that side with the Dafeng Dynasty?"

When the young Luo Ze heard this, his brows could not help but frowned slightly.

After thinking for a moment, he couldn't help but whispered: "Perhaps, those family forces have never thought of submitting to our Qingshi City Luo family?"

"And before, the reason why they chose to submit to us was just because they were forced."

"Now, the Feng family of the Dafeng Dynasty has chosen to take action against our Qingshi City Luo family."

"The actions of those forces are understandable."

"After all, no matter what."

"The Feng family of the Dafeng Dynasty has finally controlled the powerful family forces of the Dafeng Dynasty for more than a thousand years. Its profound foundation is far beyond the reach of other family forces."

"Its deterrence and influence."

"Its obviously not comparable to our Qingshi City Luo family at this stage."

Luo Ze said calmly.

Luo Yao listened to these words and nodded silently.

This can be regarded as his approval of what Luo Ze said.

However, even if the matter is really so.

After such a thing happened, it would still be a bit depressing and uncomfortable.

"What do you think? If we ask the shadow guards in the hands of the ancestor."

"Then, how about killing a chicken to scare the monkeys?"

Luo Ze did not answer immediately.

He just narrowed his eyes slightly.

It seemed that he was thinking about the feasibility of what Luo Yao said.

"Alas"

After another period of time.

Luo Ze couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Although this kind of thing is a bit cruel.

But since the matter has risen to the confrontation between the two family forces.

Some things seem to have to be done.

"Killing a chicken to scare the monkeys is feasible."

"I just don't know what the ancestor Changfeng thinks"

When Luo Yao heard this title, he couldn't help but be a little stunned.

Ancestor Changfeng?

Yes, if he really wanted to ask the group of forces called shadow guards in the hands of the ancestor Changfeng.

He seemed to really ask the ancestor Changfeng for his opinion.

So, before that,

He also needs to go to the small courtyard of the ancestor Changfeng and take a walk.

However, if it is somewhere else, it will be fine.

But if it is the small courtyard of the ancestor Changfeng

the situation will be a little different.

After all, as the ancestor of the Luo family, Luo Changfeng has left a shadow in Luo Yao's heart that is too exaggerated.

So, under normal circumstances.

Unless he was really forced to do so, Luo Yao would never take the initiative to go to his ancestral home.

Take the initiative to find Ancestor Changfeng.

Aren't you asking for trouble like this?

Forget it.

forget it.

Forbearance a moment, calm, take a step back, a brighter future.

Besides, the current head of the Luo family in Bluestone City is Luo Ping, not Luo Yao.

He, Luo Yao, is just the next heir to the Luo family in Bluestone City.

Heir, heir.

In other words, someone who has not yet succeeded as the head of the family.

In this case, why is he still worrying about this?

With the head of the family, Luo Ping, standing in front of him, why should he make himself so unhappy?

"Brother Ze, you continue to practice your sword."

"I'm going out to relax."

After thinking of this, the sadness on Luo Yao's face disappeared.

He even thought about it while there were not too many things going on at this moment.

Get out for a little bit, walk around, do some shopping.

Otherwise, wait until the Luo family of Bluestone City completely collides with the Feng family, the royal family of the Gale Dynasty.

He wanted to go out for a walk and go shopping again.

Live a leisurely life.

This is probably a bit difficult.

"Go for a walk? Take a breather?"

Luo Ze looked at Luo Yao's retreating figure and couldn't help but frown slightly.

There was a look of doubt in his eyes.

What does this mean?

Wasn't Luo Yao still looking sad just now?

Weren't you just talking about killing chickens to scare monkeys or something?

Why is it suddenly like this now?

It's like being light-hearted when nothing happens?

Strange, very strange.

But it doesn't matter anymore

Anyway, Luo Ze is just an ordinary member of the Luo family in Bluestone City.

Therefore, he only needs to do what he should do.

And what he needs to do is to keep practicing his sword, keep practicing.

Of course, if the family needs his power.

Naturally, he would take action for the sake of his family.

However, under normal circumstances.

If the time really comes, the family needs the power of an ordinary practitioner like him.

The Luo family of Bluestone City is probably at the critical moment of life and death, and may fall completely at any time.

In the blink of an eye, three more days passed.

Bluestone City, deep inside the Luo family.

A small courtyard that always exudes an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

Under a stone pavilion that looks a little unremarkable, but actually contains something wonderful.

Luo Changfeng is the ancestor of the Luo family in Bluestone City.

He was sitting silently on a stone bench.

On his left hand, he held a cup of hot tea.

On his right hand, he is holding a booklet of various information that looks somewhat similar to government affairs, and he is constantly flipping through it in detail.

"Brother Luo."

"The old monk in Baifan Temple seems to have left."

Under the stone pavilion.

In front of Luo Changfeng.

The old guy Fu Qiu is the current deputy sect leader of the Wandan Sect branch.

He also drank hot tea and whispered to Luo Changfeng in front of him.

"oh?"

"The old monk in the Mortal Realm in Baifan Temple has left?"

"Are you planning to hand over that floating boat?"

Luo Changfeng lowered his head slightly and murmured in a low voice.

Fu Qiu didn't pay too much attention to what his brother Luo was mumbling.

With his old face, he said with a slightly excited expression: "Brother Luo, if our information is not wrong, then there should be only one person in the Mortal Realm in Baifan Temple in Bailian Mansion, and since The only mortal in Baifan Temple has already left, so why don’t we eradicate that Baifan Temple directly and take control of the White Lotus Mansion.”

"In this way, Brother Luo, when your Bluestone City Luo family collides with the Feng family of the Gale Dynasty, you won't have to guard against the backstab of the Baifan Temple behind you."

"Brother Luo, what do you think?"

When Luo Changfeng heard these words, he did not respond immediately.

He just lowered his head silently.

His eyes were slightly squinted, and he was thinking calmly about the feasibility of what the old guy Fu Qiu just said.

In the Baifan Temple within the Bailian Mansion, there was only one person who became mortal.

This matter has been decided for sure.

And with that, the only mortal in Baifan Temple in Bailian Mansion left the place of Bailian Mansion.

Today's Bailian Mansion has become a territory that can be taken at will.

As long as he wanted to, he could easily take down the White Lotus Mansion.

But, if he really does it.

We really took down the Bailian Mansion.

What will happen next?

Are the benefits he receives commensurate with the price he pays?

In other words, the benefits outweigh the costs.

It was not impossible for him and the old guy Fu Qiu to directly take over the Bailian Mansion.

But if it is the case, the payment is much greater than the benefit

Then, there is no need to take the land of Bailian Mansion in hand.

"Today, the collision between the Wandan Sect and the Shendan Sect is in full swing."

"The Bai family members of the Wandan Sect's sect also died at the hands of the Baifan Temple in the Bailian Mansion."

"During this period, we want to capture the White Lotus Mansion."

"This is not a particularly difficult thing. It can even be said to be very easy."

"But, have you ever thought about it?"

"If it were at this time, we would destroy the Baifan Temple and take the White Lotus Mansion into our hands."

"What can we gain?"

"The place of Bailian Mansion that has been riddled with holes by Baifan Temple?"

"Or, those ordinary people who have been dominated by the evil Bai Fanlian?"

"Or is it the Bailian Mansion that has been transformed beyond recognition by the most evil Bai Fanlian?"

Talking and talking.

Luo Changfeng suddenly stopped.

He silently picked up the cup of hot tea in his hand.

Until he drank the cup of hot tea in his hand.

Then he looked at the old guy in front of him, Fu Qiu, and whispered: "Sometimes, people can't just see the immediate interests. We need to take a longer-term view."

"Yes, we will indeed gain some benefits by taking over the White Lotus Mansion."

"The territory under our command will indeed improve a lot."

"But that's compared to what you might have to pay later."

"Such a small amount of income is obviously not enough."

"Instead, you and I used all our strength to overthrow the Baifan Temple in the Bailian Mansion, as well as the Feng Family, the royal family of the Gale Dynasty who suddenly attacked our Luo Family in Bluestone City."

"It would be better for us to coexist with those two forces for a while."

"Until, until our strength reaches a certain level."

"Isn't it a better choice to destroy those two forces in one fell swoop?"

Luo Changfeng's words were very long.

Even others may feel a little confused.

However, sitting quietly in front of Luo Changfeng is the current deputy sect leader of the Wandan Sect branch.

Fu Qiu has always been extremely cunning and cautious.

But he could easily understand what Luo Changfeng said.

On this Xuanyuan Continent, the relationship between forces is nothing more than profit.

When the benefits are sufficient, even betrayal is okay.

But if so, when the benefits are insufficient.

In a situation where the benefits are far outweighed by the price one has to pay.

Some things, even if they can be done, can even be done easily.

But still don't do it, it will be much better.

For example, the current three forces of the Luo Family of Bluestone City, Baifan Temple, and the Feng Family of the Royal Family of the Gale Dynasty.

These three forces have formed a somewhat delicate balance on this land.

The balance here refers to the balance in the eyes of other forces.

If this kind of balance can be maintained forever, it will be fine.

But if so, any force will break this balance.

It even swallowed up the other two forces.

Then, among the three forces, the only remaining one will inevitably appear in the sight of other more powerful forces.

It is not completely impossible for him to be gradually feared and remembered by other forces.
