Chapter 511 -243: Artifact Refining Wen Family? Becoming a Vassal Family?_2

Now, at last, they’d arrived on the Luo Family Ancestral Land of Qingshi City.

They could finally stop, taking a moment to catch their breath.

…

Qingshi City was a picture of tranquility, harmony, and prosperity.

Within the Luo Family Ancestral Land, it was extremely flourishing and peaceful.

However, situated deep within the Luo Family Ancestral Land,

there was an obscure courtyard that seemed to diffuse an ancient and mysterious aura.

At this moment, it appeared somewhat different from usual.

Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family, was naturally still sitting under the Stone Pavilion.

He was silently drinking tea, enjoying the serenity of the moment.

By his side was an elderly man clad in a grey robe,

with a head of pale white hair,

his face covered in wrinkles,

and what seemed to be a miniature Furnace Cauldron hanging at his waist.

Right now, a razor-sharp Spiritual Sword was horizontally placed against his neck.

The one holding the Spiritual Sword was none other than Ruan Liuli, one of the Shadow Guard Three Great Commanders, dressed in black, her skin appearing even paler against the dark fabric.

“Speak then,”

“coming to our Luo Family, to this little courtyard, what exactly do you intend to do?”

After Luo Changfeng finished the tea in his hand and set down the cup,

he silently shifted his gaze to the messy-looking old man beside him, who only had the cultivation of the Intermediate Stage of Blood Refinement.

“You, you are the Ancestor of the Luo Family from Qingshi City, Luo Changfeng?”

The old man first tried to move the Spiritual Sword that was against his neck with his hand.

But when he realized he couldn’t shift it,

he then inquired in a low voice to Luo Changfeng, who sat under the pavilion looking utterly leisurely.

“What do you think?”

Luo Changfeng asked with a slight smile in return.

“Ah?”

“What do I think?”

The old man was momentarily taken aback by Luo Changfeng’s counter question.

But soon, he gathered his thoughts,

and after silently formulating his words and feeling they were sufficiently prepared, he hurriedly said to Luo Changfeng, “I am the ancestor of the Wen Family, Wen Xi. Now my entire Wen Family has entered Qingshi City, and what I ask of the Luo Family is just one thing, that the Luo Family would shelter my Wen Family, giving us a secure place to stay…”

“May I know, do you have an answer to this matter, Senior?”

Wen Xi looked at Luo Changfeng.

His expression was somewhat tentative as he spoke softly.

“The ancestor of the Wen Family, Wen Xi?”

“Now the entire Wen Family has already entered my Qingshi City?”

“And you hope that our Luo Family will protect your Wen Family?”

Hearing these words, Luo Changfeng looked at the old fellow who claimed to be the ancestor of the Wen Family with an expression that seemed to say he was looking at a fool.

Did this old man think that Luo Changfeng was a fool?

Or that the whole Luo Family Clan was made up of fools?

Out of the blue, he had come before him, asking to protect the entire Wen Family.

Did he really come across as such a pushover?

“Do you think I’m a nice guy?”

After a moment of silence, Luo Changfeng couldn’t help but ask.

“Why would you say that, Senior?”

Wen Xi asked, puzzled.

Luo Changfeng sighed softly, looking slightly exasperated as he said, “If I don’t look like a complete pushover, why then are you asking me for these favors so suddenly?”

“Know that many things in this world have a certain value.”

“For our Luo Family of Qingshi City to protect the Wen Family is not impossible, but…”

“Your Wen Family also needs to demonstrate your value at a time like this.”

“Simply put, what can your Wen Family offer to the Luo Family of Qingshi City?”

“And what value does your Wen Family possess?”

That Wen Xi, with his head of silvery hair, finally understood the meaning of Luo Changfeng’s words at this moment.

Indeed, if he wanted the Luo Family to protect his Wen Family,

his Wen Family would naturally need to pay a certain price.

“In my Wen Family, many are skilled in Artifact Refining. Should the elder deem it suitable, my Wen Family is willing to become a vassal to the Luo Family from this point forth… ”

Luo Changfeng slightly narrowed his eyes, “A vassal, you say? If this is indeed as you claim, it’s not impossible, but besides this, I have one more question I wish to ask you…”

“Why have you decided to choose the Luo Family of Qingshi City?”

“If we judge by the current situation, the true state of the Luo Family of Qingshi City is not much better than that of your Wen Family.”

Wen Xi was stunned and then couldn’t help but smile wryly, “My Wen Family has no other choice…”

“In this territory, aside from the Luo Family of Qingshi City, only White Brahma Temple remains.”

“And that White Brahma Temple is known as one of the three great powers of the Demonic Path within Buddhism.”

“Therefore, the only option left is the Luo Family.”

“To live a little longer is naturally the best outcome.”

“Moreover, seeing how the elder discusses this matter so calmly, it seems things are not as terrible as I imagined.”

Luo Changfeng silently nodded his head.

After pondering in silence for a moment, he then asked in a low voice, “Who is the enemy of your Wen Family?”

Wen Xi replied softly, “Bai Hua Pavilion…”

“A member of my Wen Family inadvertently killed the only heir of the Bai Hua Pavilion’s Pavilion Master, and the Bai Hua Pavilion has held a grudge against my Wen Family ever since.”

Luo Changfeng slightly narrowed his eyes and asked in a low voice, “Is that all?”

Wen Xi lowered his head, falling somewhat silent.

Not long afterward, Luo Changfeng waved his hand.

He asked an ordinary Shadow Guard to escort Wen Xi away from this mysterious courtyard that was sending forth waves of ancient charm.

“Master…”

Within the courtyard, beneath the Stone Pavilion,

stood Ruan Liuli, her complexion cold and pale beside Luo Changfeng.

She seemed unable to restrain the doubts in her heart.

In a low voice, she asked Luo Changfeng before her, “Master, that being named Wen Xi appears to be concealing something. Why not clarify this matter?”

Upon hearing this, Luo Changfeng first picked up the cup of tea from the stone table.

He brought it to his lips and took a sip,

then he smiled slightly, turned his head to glance at Ruan Liuli beside him, and said in a low voice, “Previously, I had no impressions of that Wen Family spoken of by Wen Xi, but as that old fellow mentioned Bai Hua Pavilion, I seemed to recall some things about Bai Hua Pavilion and that Wen Family, known for their skill in Artifact Refining and their heritage in the art.”

“The Wen Family resides within a dynasty near White Brahma Temple.”

“That dynasty’s power is not considered strong.”

“Within it, the Wen Family is among the top echelons.”

“As for Bai Hua Pavilion, it is somewhat the controller behind that dynasty.”

“Its comprehensive strength far exceeds that of the Wen Family by much.”

“However, if compared to our Luo Family of Qingshi City… ”

“Bai Hua Pavilion is but so-so.”

“Previously, when Wen Xi spoke of the relationship between the Wen Family and Bai Hua Pavilion, his gaze dodged a bit, which made me think the issue may not be so simple.”

“But does that matter?”

“It’s unimportant to both myself and the Luo Family of Qingshi City.”

“What’s truly important is the entire Wen Family.”

“Now, the Wen Family is seeking protection from our Luo Family of Qingshi City and is even willing to become a subordinate clan to us, prioritizing our Luo Family of Qingshi City’s commands above all else.”

“With this in place, other trivial matters naturally become irrelevant…”

After speaking, Luo Changfeng tipped his head back and drained the cup of tea in his hand.

Then he stretched out his hand, pointing to the ceramic teacup in front of him.

He signaled Ruan Liuli beside him to pour him another cup of tea.

“Aside from that Wen Xi, are there other members of the Wen Family who have come to the Luo Family Ancestral Land?”

Luo Changfeng waited for a moment before speaking again to inquire.

Ruan Liuli thought for a bit and then replied softly, “Aside from Wen Xi, Wen Yuan, who is the current Family Head of the Wen Family, is also presently within the clan land…”
