Chapter 584: Chapter 280: A Decision Made Out of Desperation?_1

As time passed by,

Several days had gone by in the blink of an eye.

In the Five Elements Immortal Sect within the Northern Desolate Divine Continent, outside a palace on one of the main peaks that radiated a strong atmosphere of cultivation,

A young man dressed in a Taoist robe, appearing rather handsome, stood with his eyebrows slightly furrowed, his hands clasped behind his back.

Although his face seemed expressionless,

The occasional flash of worry in his eyes betrayed the true thoughts of the young man.

...

“Brother Yan?”

“Brother Yan…”

Suddenly, a low calling voice came from behind Yan Zhi.

“Is that you, Junior Brother?”

“What’s the matter? Is there something troubling you?”

Yan Zhi turned to look at his junior brother, who was also dressed in a Taoist robe.

He gave a slight smile, concealing the anxiety in his heart.

“It’s nothing.”

“I just noticed Brother Yan standing here without moving, so I wondered…”

“And wanted to see if you were worried about something.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Zhi slightly lowered his head.

“Is it that obvious?”

After a moment of silence, Yan Zhi inquired.

“Quite obvious,” the Taoist-robed junior brother nodded, then followed up by asking, “So, what is it that Brother Yan is actually worried about?”

Yan Zhi hesitated for a moment, then chuckled.

He spoke with a forced ease.

“Ah, it’s just some family matters…”

Yan Zhi seemed reluctant to elaborate.

Seeing this, the Taoist-robed junior brother silently nodded and then left the place.

If the elder brother didn’t want to elaborate,

Then there was no need to probe further.

Sometimes, inquiring about others’ affairs could easily provoke their displeasure,

Even if your intentions were benevolent.

…

The Five Elements Immortal Sect.

Outside a palace.

As the junior brother gradually left,

The current Crown Prince of the Great Flame Dynasty, who had with difficulty become a personal disciple of the elders in the Five Elements Immortal Sect, slowly narrowed his eyes.

He was aware of the affairs of the Qingshi City Luo Family.

He also had clear intelligence about it.

Moreover, to resolve the issue,

He knew about leveraging the power of the Five Elements Immortal Sect to intimidate the Luo Family of Qingshi City,

However, what he hadn’t expected was…

That the Luo Family of Qingshi City would dare to disregard the Five Elements Immortal Sect that backed the Great Flame Dynasty.

Although, the Five Elements Immortal Sect belongs to the Immortal Sect,

And the Great Flame Dynasty is the Great Flame Dynasty.

The two should not be confused.

Still, the fact that the Luo Family of Qingshi City hadn’t easily given up their rights and interests suggested,

The Luo Family was no ordinary player.

Exactly where this complexity lay, however,

He couldn’t quite put his finger on.

If it were a matter of strength, the Luo Family of Qingshi City was clearly no match for his Yan Family.

Furthermore, the opponents the Luo Family faced were not limited to the Yan Family.

“So, what exactly is going on here?”

“Where does the Luo Family of Qingshi City get their courage?”

“Does the Luo Family have some other card up their sleeve, or could it be…”

“Am I simply overthinking this?”

“The Luo Family’s reluctance to give up their rights, is it just that no one realizes the gap between themselves and others?”

“Or, even after recognizing the gap,

“Does the Luo Family still refuse to give in?”

“Are they silently waiting for a miracle to happen?”

With these thoughts, Yan Zhi’s emotions gradually calmed.

It seemed that he really was overthinking things.

The rise of the Luo Family of Qingshi City had only been a matter of a few years.

Talking about such a power base – they hardly had one.

Even if it was just top combat strength, the Luo Family was far inferior.

The only explanation for this situation could be

That, in order to protect themselves, the Luo Family might join hands with the White Brahma Temple of the White Lotus Prefecture.

The Luo Family of Qingshi City was nothing significant,

But the White Brahma Temple was a different story.

The White Brahma Temple, one of the three major forces of the Demonic Path within Buddhism.

Previously, in order to gain more benefits,

Ancestor Yan, one of the secondary ancestors of the Yan Family, had gone to the White Brahma Temple.

However, the result was that

Ancestor Yan, one of the only two ancestors of the Yan Family, perished within the White Brahma Temple.

Since then, the Yan Family had suffered a significant loss of power.

But fortunately, what followed was the incident with the Bai Hua Pavilion,

And the Yan Family gradually regained its strength,

And even surpassed its previous state.

“The White Brahma Temple is indeed a formidable opponent,”

“If the Luo Family of Qingshi City has really allied with them,”

“The situation would indeed become much more complicated,”

“But as things stand now…”

“It seems that I, residing here in the Five Elements Immortal Sect, can no longer manipulate the situation or provide any aid to my Yan Family.”

“Whether the Yan Family can rise to power now depends on my father.”

After muttering to himself,

Yan Zhi stopped dwelling on the matter.

With his hands behind his back, he slowly walked into the distance.

Being a cultivator,

And a member of the Five Elements Immortal Sect,

His most crucial task was to diligently cultivate and continuously improve his own strength.

Only in doing so would he truly follow the Dao.

In this vast continent, everything is subject to myriad changes,

But only one thing remains unchanging.

Yes, that is absolute power.
