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

Luo Ping’s eyebrows knitted slightly, he didn’t quite understand the meaning behind Luo Chuan’s words.

Luo Chuan seemed to have noticed the confusion on his father’s face.

He smiled faintly and asked his father in a low voice, “Father, do you remember that Doctor Wang Kun?”

“What does this have to do with Wang Kun?”

“Father, there’s a very important piece of information you might not have noticed…”

“A very important piece of information?” Hearing this, Luo Ping’s already slightly furrowed brows deepened even further.

Not until after he pondered for a long time.

Did a crucial piece of information, which he had overlooked, dawn faintly upon him in his mind.

It was about half a month ago.

Wang Kun had visited the Luo Family, attending to their Elder Changfeng.

And now, since Wang Kun had joined the Zhao Family.

And become the private physician of the Zhao Family.

Then, the news of Elder Changfeng’s approaching demise, his waning days, would be known to the Zhao Family.

Moreover, the Zhao Family could take advantage of Wang Kun’s assessment to accurately calculate the approximate time of Elder Changfeng’s death.

Nowadays, the Zhao Family, being one of the four great families of Qingshi Town, their such abnormal behavior.

It is very likely that this will be a probing move against the Luo Family.

If the Luo Family remains unmoved by the Zhao Family’s probe.

Then what the Luo Family will face next.

Will be the stormy onslaught of the Zhao Family.

“So, Chuan’er, you mean the Zhao Family thinks we’ve concealed the news of Patriarch Changfeng’s death?”

After Luo Ping came back to his senses.

He silently looked at Luo Chuan beside him.

“That’s roughly the case,” Luo Chuan silently nodded.

“Then Chuan’er, what do you think our Luo Family should do next in response to the Zhao Family’s probe?”

“One word, fight!”

“Fight?” Luo Ping’s brows locked up once again, he felt his mind was nearly not up to the task.

“The Zhao Family’s behavior this time is just a probe, which means they are not certain of the actual situation on our Luo Family’s side.”

“And for the Zhao Family’s this probe, the best solution is to chop off the hand they are trying to reach out!”

“If the Zhao Family dares to reach out a hand, we will chop off that hand, if they dare to reach out two, we will cut off both hands.”

“Only by demonstrating the absolute power of our Luo Family and repelling the Zhao Family.”

“Can we intimidate all the other families in Qingshi Town coveting our Luo Family.”

“Then can our Luo Family have undisturbed days in this Qingshi Town.”

…

As Luo Chuan’s voice faded.

The room gradually fell into utter silence.

It’s not surprising that Luo Ping did not react for a moment.

Primarily because Luo Chuan’s words contained too much information.

And moreover, it was about the affairs of an entire family.

It wasn’t just about Luo Ping or Luo Chuan as individuals.

Therefore, for this matter.

As the current Family Head of the Luo Family, Luo Ping had to consider it very carefully.

“Father, think about this matter carefully, I will take my leave now,” Luo Chuan stood up and said to his father Luo Ping beside him, then turned and left the room.

And in the room, Luo Ping, seated at the head position,

Long after his son Luo Chuan had left, he finally returned to his senses.

“Perhaps, I should discuss this matter with Patriarch Changfeng…”

Thought Luo Ping, as he reached out to pick up the cup of hot tea placed beside him.

Yet, whether it was due to the overwhelming pressure or some other reason,

His hands holding the porcelain teacup began to tremble inadvertently.

“Phew…”

“Phew…”

“Huff…”

Only after taking several deep breaths did Luo Ping’s trembling hands start to stabilize.

“Zhao Family, oh Zhao Family, why must it be like this?”

“In Qingshi Town, the four great families have coexisted for more than three hundred years.”

“Isn’t living in peace… a good thing?”

…

Qingshi Town, Luo Family Ancestral Land.

Outside the courtyard where Elder Changfeng resided.

Luo Ping looked at the courtyard in front of him. He hesitated for a moment but eventually walked in.

Soon after entering the courtyard, Luo Ping found himself beneath the Stone Pavilion.

There, he saw Elder Changfeng flipping through a book that appeared to be the “Art of Alchemy.”

“Is Patriarch Changfeng looking to study the Art of Alchemy?”

“Or is he trying to find a way to save what’s fragile?”

Gazing at Elder Changfeng in front of him, a whirl of thoughts swirled through Luo Ping’s mind.

“Luo Ping?”

“What’s this guy doing here all of a sudden, what does he want?”

Realizing someone had arrived, Luo Changfeng set the book in his hands down.

He then lifted his head and looked at Luo Ping, who seemed to be in a daze in front of him.

Luo Changfeng reached out with his somewhat withered right hand and shook it in front of Luo Ping.

“Ah?” Luo Ping quickly came to his senses.

“Elder Changfeng…”

Luo Ping slightly bowed his head in a very respectful manner.

“Have you come to this old man for a particular matter?”

“Elder Changfeng, I…” Luo Ping swallowed nervously.

His speech was somewhat hesitant.

He also seemed to become increasingly tense.

Only after taking several more deep breaths

did he begin to recount the Zhao Family’s unusual actions today, as well as his son Luo Chuan’s suggestions, all in front of Elder Changfeng.

“A probe from the Zhao Family?”

Upon hearing this, Luo Changfeng’s slightly cloudy eyes narrowed.

Flashes of light sparkled intermittently within his murky eyes.

“Elder Changfeng, how do you view this matter with the Zhao Family?”

Seeing that Luo Changfeng didn’t seem to give an immediate response,

Luo Ping hesitated for a moment, then cautiously voiced his question.

“What little Chuan’er said is not wrong.”

“If our Luo Family wants to live peacefully in Qingshi Town,”

“we must provide a certain deterrence to those families coveting what’s ours within the town. It’s necessary,”

“As for the Zhao Family…” Luo Ping said, but then paused for a moment.

He glanced at Luo Ping beside him, who seemed somewhat at a loss.

Luo Changfeng reached out and slowly picked up the book named “Introduction to Alchemy” from the stone table.

He opened it and returned to the page he was previously looking at.

After a moment of silence, Luo Changfeng’s voice turned slightly cold as he said, “As for the Zhao Family, just do as Chuan’er said.”

“If the Zhao Family dares to stretch out one hand, chop off that hand.”

“If they dare to stretch out two hands, then chop off both their hands.”

“Those who dare trouble the Luo Family must always pay a certain price!!!”

Having said this, Luo Changfeng then focused his attention back on the book in his hand.

“Why, is there anything else you want to discuss with me?”

Luo Changfeng noticed that Luo Ping had not left his side.

Thus, he glanced at Luo Ping beside him and asked softly.

“No, there’s nothing else…” After coming back to his senses, Luo Ping shook his head.

He quickly turned around and left the courtyard of Patriarch Changfeng.
