LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 227: The Idea of Cultivating the Next Family Head?_2
```
If he remembered correctly, the Luo Family of Qingshi City should have risen to power during the chaos of the Da Feng Dynasty, seizing the opportunity to become a formidable family force.
On the surface, the Luo Family of Qingshi City appeared to control the lands of four prefectures.
The number of troops they commanded also seemed to have already reached the millions.
But if one were to discuss their peak combat strength, as well as the true depth and heritage of their influence, could it be that the Luo Family of Qingshi City was quite unremarkable?
Why would his esteemed master regard the Luo Family of Qingshi City so highly?
"Do you think that the Luo Family of Qingshi City is somewhat ordinary?"
"Merely fortunate enough to have risen to power by seizing the right opportunity?"
Glancing at his most exceptional disciple, San Yuan, Zhi Ming, who was currently the Abbot of White Brahma Temple, could naturally guess what his disciple was thinking with ease.
But was the Luo Family of Qingshi City truly as simple as they appeared to be on the surface?
He certainly didn't think so...
"On the Xuanyuan Continent, the unchanging law has always been the survival of the fittest, the rule of the jungle."
"The strong control everything."
"While the weak, don't even own their lives."
"Although the Da Feng Dynasty may not be any great place."
"Often, what you see on the surface can already represent a lot of things."
"You know, within the Da Feng Dynasty, apart from the Royal Feng Family and those from the Great Flame Dynasty, there are countless other family forces."
"So why is it that the Luo Family of Qingshi City managed to rise to power?"
"Why has the Luo Family of Qingshi City managed to last until the end?"
"Why has the Luo Family of Qingshi City been able to occupy the lands of four prefectures in such a short period of time, have you thought about that? "
The old monk Zhi Ming slightly narrowed his eyes.
He watched his disciple San Yuan in front of him while continuously speaking in a soft voice.
At the moment, San Yuan was slightly lowering his head.
He seemed to be pondering over the words spoken by his master.
Although he was somewhat reluctant to admit it.
Reluctant to recognize the true power of the Luo Family of Qingshi City.
Nonetheless, the words spoken by his master, who stood before him, were indeed true.
There were countless family forces within the territory of the Da Feng Dynasty.
If the Luo Family of Qingshi City truly only rose to power by sheer luck, without any real capability.
Then how has the Luo Family remained standing to this day?
If the Luo Family of Qingshi City was truly as ordinary as he imagined.
Then how did the Luo Family initially contend with the Royal Feng Family and the Great Flame Dynasty?
All of these, it seemed, had become unsolved mysteries.
And only if the comprehensive strength of the Luo Family far exceeded what he had in mind
Could these enigmas have an answer.
"Master, let's put aside the Royal Feng Family and the Luo Family of Qingshi City for now."
"Our true enemy at White Brahma Temple is currently the Great Flame Dynasty."
"What do you think we should do to accelerate the total collapse of the Great Flame Dynasty's power within the Da Feng Dynasty???"
San Yuan asked softly with a tinge of respect on his face, looking slightly downward.
"Want to speed things up, do you?"
Upon hearing these words, Zhi Ming, who was currently the Abbot of White Brahma Temple, couldn't help but narrow his eyes and looked outside the room.
Only after being silent for a while,
did he finally speak softly to his disciple in front of him.
"If you wish to hasten the pace, then let those of your senior brothers who are currently in closed-door cultivation come out."
"Given the current circumstances, your senior brothers' cultivation should also be nearing completion."
"It's about time they made an appearance within the territory of the Da Feng Dynasty..."
As these words fell,
San Yuan immediately lifted his head.
A hint of joy appeared on his somewhat enchanting face.
"Master, are you serious?"
Zhi Ming stood with his hands clasped behind his back, quietly nodding his head without saying more.
And upon receiving a positive answer from his master, who also served as the current Abbot of White Brahma Temple,
San Yuan bowed slightly and then quickly left the room that seemed somewhat plain and unremarkable.
It seemed San Yuan planned to have his senior brothers who were in closed-door cultivation come out,
and then, he would strive to hasten the defeat of the Great Flame Dynasty within the Da Feng Dynasty.
Even without the help of those senior brothers, relying on the puppets currently controlled by the White Brahma Temple under his command,
He still could completely destroy the Great Flame Dynasty's influence within the Da Feng Dynasty's borders.
But if he could get the help of his senior fellow disciples,
he would be able to destroy the Great Flame Dynasty's influence within the Da Feng Dynasty's borders even more swiftly.
Then, even faster,
he would encounter the Da Feng Dynasty's royal family and the Luo Family from Qingshi City.
He really wanted to see just how much strength and depth the Luo Family from Qingshi City possessed, a family that was described and feared by his master in such a way.
He really wanted to see what kind of energy could be unleashed by the Royal Feng Family, which had existed for thousands of years.
...
As time passed,
as the senior fellow disciples from White Brahma Temple left their meditation retreats,
the situation of the Great Flame Dynasty's influence within the Da Feng Dynasty's borders gradually became increasingly precarious.
Although, in the short term,
they could defend themselves, thanks to the terrain.
But if time stretched on and the attacks from White Brahma Temple became more fierce,
the Great Flame Dynasty's influence would ultimately collapse.
And gradually they would withdraw from the struggle within the Da Feng Dynasty's borders.
...
In the blink of an eye,
more than a month had passed.
Da Feng Dynasty, Luo Mountain Prefecture, Qingshi City.
In the Luo Family Ancestral Land, within the chambers of the Luo Family Patriarch.
At this moment, Luo Ping, who was the current Family Head of the Luo Family, was sitting quietly in the principal seat.
He held a steaming cup of tea in one hand while continuously browsing through the documents that were already well managed and just needed his review.
At first, it was okay.
Luo Ping could maintain a standard attitude and deal with those documents that had not yet been reviewed.
But over time,
Luo Ping began to feel overwhelmed.
Even though these documents had already been carefully dealt with by the people at his side and were essentially ready,
They each required his careful review as the current Family Head of the Luo Family.
Even if the workload was small, as time went by,
the number of documents he needed to review kept growing.
In the end, he still felt he couldn't bear it.
"Am I getting old?"
"At my age, is even my vitality rapidly declining?"
In the room,
Luo Ping, who was sitting in the principal seat, asked himself these questions in his heart.
Of course, these were just his personal thoughts.
Even though his cultivation had not advanced over the years,
he could still hold the position of Family Head for another ten or twenty years.
Right now, the reason he felt this way
was simply because he was tired.
There were times when he wanted to be lazy.
"Previously, before Luo Chuan left, I had been thinking of cultivating him properly."
"But unexpectedly, before he was fully trained,
"he chose to leave the clan and join a sect called what was it, the Fire Sword Immortal Sect, saying he wanted to learn their secret formation, the Amethyst Flame Sword Formation."
"Such actions directly ruined my initial plans."
"And I wonder how that boy is doing now?"
As he pondered,
a look of nostalgia flashed through Luo Ping's eyes.
However, it was just for a brief moment.
The nostalgia in his gaze dissipated shortly after.
At this moment, a new thought emerged in his mind, and that was to find someone soon to share the workload he currently carried.
While being lazy, he could simultaneously cultivate the next generation of the Luo Family Head.
In this way, he would kill two birds with one stone.
For Luo Ping, wouldn't that be a perfect situation?
