Chapter 605: Chapter 290 Unequal Benefits and Crisis_2

“But reality is just like that.”

“In this world, there are neither eternal friends nor eternal enemies, the only thing that’s eternal… is absolute interest.”

“Whether it’s the downfall of the Qingshi City Luo Family or the fall of the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Yan Family.”

“That interest, it always exists and remains unchanged.”

“No need to lift a finger, one can sit back and reap the profits.”

“With this, why wouldn’t the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family be happy to comply?”

...

…

Under the Stone Pavilion.

Luo Changfeng was speaking.

He shook his head with a smile and then picked up the cup of tea that had been sitting on the stone table for an unknown length of time and brought it to his lips.

He silently drank.

“Oh, that’s right…”

Luo Changfeng seemed to have thought of something.

He glanced at the old fellow Fu Qiu sitting across from him, then asked in a low voice, “Didn’t you say you were busy earlier, with a lot of things to handle? Why now…”

Luo Changfeng slightly narrowed his eyes.

He silently gazed at the old fellow Fu Qiu with a scrutinizing look.

Fu Qiu felt somewhat embarrassed under his gaze.

He laughed awkwardly and scratched his head.

After pondering for a moment, he finally said in a low voice.

“Over at the Sect, there are indeed many matters to attend to; that’s true.”

“What I told you before, that I had a lot of things to handle, that was also true.”

“However, I have been grooming a young man recently.”

“This young man is not only skilled in alchemy.”

“He’s also adept at handling these tedious matters.”

“So…”

Having said this, the old fellow Fu Qiu didn’t continue.

He just chuckled while silently watching Luo Changfeng in front of him.

“Is that so?”

Luo Changfeng listened to all this.

He nodded to himself.

If that’s the case, he figured he understood.

It’s likely that the old fellow Fu Qiu was becoming reluctant to deal with those tedious and trifling Sect affairs.

So, he cultivated a tool person.

Someone to pass all those tasks to.

And him, as the current Deputy Sect Master of the Sect,

Could then spend his days leisurely playing around, right?

When tired of playing, he could refine some elixirs.

Or research how to improve the quality of his elixirs,

Or even research how to concoct a new type of elixir.

After all, one must balance work with leisure.

With this in mind, Luo Changfeng could only slightly criticize in his heart.

But it wasn’t like he could really say anything.

He had done the same himself.

He couldn’t very well criticize the old fellow Fu Qiu, could he?

“So…”

“What are your thoughts, Elder Luo?”

Suddenly, Fu Qiu once again inquired in a low voice to Luo Changfeng in front of him.

Luo Changfeng frowned slightly, puzzled: “What do you mean by ‘my thoughts’?”

Fu Qiu whispered, “I mean the matter we were discussing just now, about the Great Flame Dynasty…”

At this point, the conversation between Luo Changfeng and Fu Qiu circled back once again.

About the matter of the Great Flame Dynasty, a solution always had to be proposed.

To continue to delay?

To extend a helping hand?

Or to outright reject the request from the Great Flame Dynasty.

They’re about to go under,

So why bother with them?

“Since I’ve entrusted you with the Sect’s affairs,”

“You may as well handle this matter too.”

Having said that.

Luo Changfeng then poured himself another cup of steaming hot tea.

After that, he brought the cup of tea to his lips.

He sipped it slowly, then silently enjoyed the peace of the moment.

This kind of life, it was unspeakably beautiful.

“Are you leaving it to me to handle?”

Fu Qiu, rubbing his head with some headache, thought for a while and then asked in a low voice, “Brother Luo, actually, there’s something I’ve been wanting to ask you since early on, but I haven’t managed to bring it up…”

Luo Changfeng, while drinking his tea, glanced at the old fellow Fu Qiu and said, “What is the problem? Just ask it.”

Fu Qiu thought for a while, organized his words, and then said in a low voice, “Brother Luo, considering our current strength, even without summoning those cultivators above the Five Realms of Mortality, us wanting to annihilate the Great Flame Dynasty, Da Feng Dynasty, or the White Brahma Temple is merely a matter of time, but why…”

Luo Changfeng, smiling, said, “Are you asking why I don’t just clean out those powers’ ancestors directly and bring their territories under the jurisdiction of the Luo Family of Qingshi City?”

Fu Qiu quietly nodded, the confusion and perplexity in his eyes growing more intense.

“This question… is not so easy to answer…”

After thinking for a while, Luo Changfeng eventually continued, “It’s more or less because the benefits and the things that need to be sacrificed are no longer in proportion.”

“Let me give you an example…”

“If I really act and take out all those old fogeys from the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family, the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Yan Family”

“And then bring all those territories under the flag of the Luo Family of Qingshi City.”

“What would happen after that?”

Fu Qiu thought for a while and then said, “The comprehensive strength of the Luo Family of Qingshi City would see an enormous increase?”

Luo Changfeng nodded and then said, “What else?”

Fu Qiu thought some more and then said, “The family’s fortune would significantly improve.”

Hearing this, Luo Changfeng nodded and said, “An increase in fortune can be considered as well, but besides that, is there anything else?”

This time, Fu Qiu thought for a long while.

Afterwards, he shook his head.

Territorial area, fortune, gains.

These were only the most superficial things.

Everyone could see them.

However, if Luo Changfeng really did act like this.

In addition to these, he would also have to bear some risks.

“What you mentioned are the visible benefits.”

“But aside from these benefits, there would also be many unseen crises that would emerge.”

“If I don’t make a move against the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family, the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Yan Family, and that White Brahma Temple,”

“The opponents of my Luo Family of Qingshi City will remain confined to the powers within this small area.”

“But if my Luo Family of Qingshi City swallows up those forces,”

“In the short term, our comprehensive strength will indeed see an enormous increase.”

“Some profits would also grow quite a bit.”

“However, the crises that come with it will also emerge.”

“Because my Luo Family of Qingshi City would have seen such an enormous surge in comprehensive strength and territory size,”

“My Luo Family of Qingshi City would inevitably begin to appear in the eyes of dynasties or various family powers that are more powerful,”

“Whose heritage, compared to that of the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family, the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Yan Family, is much deeper.”

“On second thought, instead of directly annihilating those forces,”

“It is better for my Luo Family of Qingshi City to play house with those forces.”

“Like this, the opponents of my Luo Family of Qingshi City will always be those few.”

“Tell me, why wouldn’t I do just that?”

After hearing all this, Fu Qiu couldn’t help but be a bit stunned: “This, this, this…”

Though what Luo Changfeng said seemed nonsensical,

If you carefully contemplate it in your heart…

You would be surprised to realize, it indeed does make some bloody good sense.

Rather than expanding the Luo Family of Qingshi City,

Increasing the family’s territory size, population, and overall strength,

It is better to support the other few powers.

Thus, the Luo Family of Qingshi City could remain in an invincible position.

The opponents will always be those few.

Thinking this way, why not be happy about it?

“Since Brother Luo has said so, let’s just leave it at that,”

“As for the matter with the Royal Yan Family of the Great Flame Dynasty…”

“I will have the people from the sub-sect continue to drag it out.”

Luo Changfeng smiled and nodded.

Though he didn’t say anything,

The satisfaction in his eyes already said a lot.
