Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood

People upon hearing these words,

all showed an expression of disbelief on their faces.

The situation within Changli Prefecture, although perilous,

was not such that the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family had the power to crush them.

Even with the fastest estimate,

it would take the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family half a year, or even a year, to completely take over Changli Prefecture.

But now, their own Family Head was saying that the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family would soon take over the entire Changli Prefecture.

What was the reasoning behind this?

The crowd thought for a long time, seemingly unable to understand.

"Family Head..."

Just as everyone was somewhat puzzled and perplexed,

Fang Chaowu, who was standing beside Luo Ping, suddenly rose to his feet.

He cupped his hands towards Luo Ping and asked in a low voice, "Family Head, could it be that the New Emperor Feng Wumian has taken action?"

Luo Ping did not say much.

He simply nodded silently.

And upon receiving such an answer,

all their doubts seemed to dissipate like fog before the sun.

In the present Da Feng Dynasty, the Luo Family’s influence had already solidified.

The greatest threat to the New Emperor was the Luo Family, which controlled three prefectures.

If left unchecked, allowing the Luo Family to grow wildly and strengthen...

perhaps, it wouldn’t be long before,

the Luo Family would be able to annex the nearby Changli and Xunyang Prefectures,

and perhaps, even several other neighboring prefectures.

In this way, the Luo Family’s influence would become utterly unstoppable.

But if, before the Luo Family had fully assimilated Chenguan Prefecture,

the factions of New Emperor Feng Wumian were to aid the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family,

and allowed them to take over the entire land of Changli Prefecture in the shortest time,

although this would also cultivate a competitor,

it was obviously better than letting the Luo Family swallow up the two prefectures one by one.

After all, the enemy of one’s enemy is a friend.

...

In the blink of an eye, about half a month had passed.

In this half a month, the situation within the Da Feng Dynasty had changed drastically.

The Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family had successfully taken over the entire Changli Prefecture.

At this time, the Ke Family had successfully gained control over two prefectures.

Their overall strength had significantly improved.

The faction of New Emperor Feng Wumian, in this half a month, still continued to attack Qingcheng Prefecture.

Though no tangible results had yet been achieved,

at the very least, the gates of Qingcheng Prefecture had been gradually pried open by New Emperor Feng Wumian.

Next, the New Emperor’s side just needed to wait for the right moment,

the best time to attack Qingcheng Prefecture.

Once the moment arrived and the gates of Qingcheng Prefecture were forcibly opened,

this vast territory would gradually fall into New Emperor Feng Wumian’s hands.

Besides this major event,

Anqing Mansion, which had chosen a neutral stance, had unexpectedly announced its allegiance to Second Prince Feng Wuhen just a few days ago.

Who knows what methods Feng Wuhen had used,

but now, Anqing Mansion

had thoroughly become Feng Wuhen’s territory.

From then on, Feng Wuhen controlled two prefectures as well, greatly expanding the territory under his command.

Their aggregate power had also surged dramatically.

Compared to those forces with many significant moves,

the Luo Family, within the Da Feng Dynasty and in possession of three prefectures, already of immense influence,

had been exceptionally quiet during this half-month.

Apart from continuously strengthening their control over Chenguan Prefecture,

they merely focused on development,

seemingly entirely unconcerned with the chaos outside.

...

Qingshi City, Luo Family Ancestral Land.

In a mysterious courtyard, exuding waves of ancient aura,

there was a simple stone pavilion made of green stones,

where Luo Changfeng now sat in silence.

In his hands, he held a cup of steaming tea.

In front of him, sat an elder with a Spiritual Artifact walking stick placed by his side.

"Luo Elder Brother, these are the five portions of Black Crow Flame you previously purchased..."

Fu Qiu fell silent for a moment.

After waving his hand, he directly took out a ring that held five portions of Black Crow Flame.

After Luo Changfeng took the ring,

he continued to drink the hot tea in his hands in silence.

"By the way..."

Fu Qiu, after looking at Luo Changfeng across from him, paused to think and then said in a low voice, "Luo Elder Brother, there’s something I feel I need to tell you..."

Luo Changfeng placed down his teacup silently and looked at the old man, Fu Qiu, then he asked softly, "What is it?"

Fu Qiu let out a soft sigh and, organizing his words, said softly, "Due to our branch sect purchasing an excessive amount of Black Crow Flame recently, the Main Sect has temporarily revoked our right to continue acquiring Black Crow Flame..."

Upon hearing this, Luo Changfeng’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, "Even with Spirit Stones, they won’t sell it?"

Fu Qiu, after a moment of silence, said softly, "Luo Elder Brother, Black Crow Flame is a benefit provided by the Wan Dan Sect Main Sect for the Alchemists within the Sect, and its price is at least several times lower than that of other Spiritual Fires and Beast Fires of the same grade, so..."

At this point, Fu Qiu did not continue.

And Luo Changfeng had understood the implication of Fu Qiu’s words.

It meant to say, Black Crow Flame was a benefit given by the Wan Dan Sect Main Sect to their Alchemists.

The price of Black Crow Flame was several times lower than that of other spiritual and beast fires of comparable quality. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

If one were to purchase, one, two, or three portions, that would have been fine.

But recently, Luo Changfeng, intent on rapid development for the void, had continuously acquired a large quantity of Black Crow Flame.

If computed at this time, the amount he purchased might even exceed twenty portions.

Therefore, to prevent Luo Changfeng from taking more than his share, the Main Sect had temporarily restricted his right to purchase Black Crow Flame.

Of course, if Luo Changfeng was willing to buy other Spiritual Fires and Beast Fires, naturally he could continue to do so.
