Chapter 193: Chapter 116: The Gate of Immortality, White Lotus Stockade’s Scheme?_2
The Luo Family has indeed paid countless prices.
However, what happened afterwards?
In the following years, didn’t the Luo Family from Jiangnan Prefecture still decide unilaterally to cut off trade with the Luo Family from Huai Shui County for their own benefits, trampling over the friendship the two families had built back and forth on the ground?
Now, the Luo Family from Huai Shui County does not add insult to injury, which is already quite good.
And then the Luo Family from Jiangnan Prefecture has the audacity to request assistance?
Luo Ping could only say, “What kind of crap is this Luo Family, just roll as far away as you can…”
After putting down the paper in his hand.
He casually picked up another one from the table.
This one arrived about three days ago.
From the capital of Luo Mountain Prefecture.
[The Gate of Immortality organization is growing rapidly, if discovered, try to exterminate them completely, and by no means give the Gate of Immortality any room to breathe…]
Looking at the paper in his hand.
Luo Ping’s brows couldn’t help but slightly furrow.
The Gate of Immortality?
What is this all about?
What do they do?
He had never heard of this organization before!
“Someone…”
Under the influence of doubt and a hint of curiosity, Luo Yong could only call for the Luo Family servant waiting outside the door.
“Family Head, what may I do for you?”
A servant dressed in gray entered the room and bowed slightly, his demeanor showing utmost respect.
“The Gate of Immortality… have you heard of it?”
After a moment of thought, the servant replied in a low voice, “The Gate of Immortality seems to have appeared about half a month ago in the outskirts of Qingshi City and some other towns of Huai Shui County…”
Luo Ping replied with some surprise, “So, it really exists?”
A moment later, he waved his hand, dismissing the servant from the room.
The Gate of Immortality, the White Lotus Stockade…
And the affairs of Huai Shui County.
Recently, there has been an increasing number of matters to deal with.
As for the Gate of Immortality, since the issue has been raised by Luo Mountain Prefecture.
It wouldn’t hurt to move a little and deal with the organization of the Gate of Immortality.
As for the White Lotus Stockade in Yellow Mountain County…
What exactly is going on?
They launched a surprise attack and then just fled?
And then they directly holed up in their stronghold in Yellow Mountain County?
Luo Yong really couldn’t understand the thought process of those people from the White Lotus Stockade.
…
In the Luo Family Ancestral Land, within a mysterious small courtyard.
Right now, Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family,
was sitting quietly under a Stone Pavilion, holding a ceramic teacup in his hand.
While sipping the ice-cold tea, he silently gazed into the distance.
As time went on, the power controlled by Luo Changfeng gradually became more enormous.
The information he could acquire also became increasingly abundant.
Like the so-called Gate of Immortality that had appeared recently?
In his heart, Luo Changfeng was very clear.
The Gate of Immortality, seeking immortality by consuming human hearts and livers.
It’s almost safe to say, those who can join the Gate of Immortality are all twisted individuals, with something wrong in their minds.
Concerning the Gate of Immortality, Luo Changfeng had also instructed his people,
to exterminate them completely upon discovery, without mercy.
However, this so-called Gate of Immortality,
was like rats in a sewer, impossible to completely eradicate, which left Luo Changfeng feeling somewhat helpless.
Oh, it’s worth mentioning here.
Luo Changfeng had recently given a name to that secret organization that belonged only to him.
Shadow Guard.
The rough meaning being, shadows by his side, entities that always walk in darkness.
In the light, they are unseen.
But in the shadows, they are the sharpest blades in his hand, drawing blood upon unsheathing.
“About the White Lotus Stockade…”
“How is your investigation going?”
Suddenly, Luo Changfeng put down the ceramic teacup he was holding.
Then he quietly asked Ruan Liuli, who stood silently by his side with cold white skin and a slightly childish face.
“The investigation is clear,” Ruan Liuli replied in a low voice, her expressionless face looking down.
“So, what is the current situation of the White Lotus Stockade?” Luo Changfeng asked again.
After a moment of contemplation, organizing her thoughts, Ruan Liuli replied softly, “Currently, the White Lotus Stockade is divided into two main factions, one moderate and the other radical.
“These two factions are closely matched in strength, balancing each other out.
“Therefore, this has led to no further actions following the White Lotus Stockade’s initial surprise attack a while ago.
“However, as time passes and the stockade’s food reserves steadily decrease,
“the radical faction seems to be gradually gaining the upper hand.
“And they have already started planning their second attack on Huai Shui County.”
Luo Changfeng nodded silently, then continued, “Can you find out when the White Lotus Stockade plans to attack and the scale of their forces?”
Ruan Liuli did not answer; she just nodded silently.
Luo Changfeng smiled with satisfaction and said, “Good, in that case, you may withdraw for now…”
…
In the blink of an eye, another day had passed.
It was currently midday.
A scorching sun hung high in the sky.
The outdoor temperature was so hot it was hard to bear.
In Luo Mountain Prefecture, Yellow Mountain County, within the stronghold of White Lotus Stockade.
Almost all the high-ranking members of the White Lotus Stockade were gathered in a relatively cool meeting hall.
Many were red-faced and thick-necked.
It seemed as if they were arguing about something.
“What time is it now, and we’re still holed up in this den,”
