Chapter 148: Chapter 101: The Fall of the Yellow-Robed Monk, The Sentient Black Crow Flame_2

“`

That middle-aged cultivator, holding a purple longsword and whose cultivation had fallen to the Viscera Refinement Initial Realm,

once again appeared before the yellow-robed monk.

“Who would have thought, in the end, it was still I who won…”

The middle-aged cultivator said with a somewhat complex expression.

He had thought he would certainly be the one to die.

However, those three bolts of lightning that came from nowhere had completely turned the situation around.

Even just now, the middle-aged cultivator was pondering.

Could it be that behind them, there was a predecessor from the Divine Sword Sect with even higher cultivation, silently watching over everything?

Thinking thus, everything seemed to make sense once again.

The predecessors of the Divine Sword Sect, to ensure the eradication of these demonic monks,

had consequently hidden another team in the dark.

If the people from the Divine Sword Sect in the open couldn’t handle the demonic monks,

the Divine Sword Sect predecessors lurking in the shadows would then step in to take care of the problem.

…

The aftermath was now self-evident.

Be it the yellow-robed monk,

or the remaining white-robed monks,

or even the most numerous grey-robed monks,

all were dealt with by those of the Divine Sword Sect.

Even the followers weren’t spared.

These followers had been completely brainwashed by the demonic monks; upon the monks’ death, they saw the people of the Divine Sword Sect as the most evil demons.

They kept attacking the cultivators of the Divine Sword Sect in suicide attempts.

Left with no alternative,

the people of the Divine Sword Sect could only slay all these so-called Buddhist followers.

Until the so-called followers of Buddha were utterly defeated and fled in all directions in a panic.

“Hmm?”

“Where is that string of damaged Yellow Grade lower-tier Buddha beads?”

After resolving the issue with the demonic monks,

the middle-aged cultivator, whose cultivation had fallen to the Viscera Refinement Initial Realm, began searching for that string of damaged Yellow Grade lower-tier Buddha beads.

After all, that’s a Yellow Grade lower-tier Spiritual Artifact.

Even if damaged, it was not without value.

However, no matter how the middle-aged cultivator searched,

he couldn’t find where that string of Buddha beads had been lost.

…

After the monk issue was thoroughly resolved,

Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family,

finally returned to his own small courtyard within the Luo Family Ancestral Land.

Between the Divine Sword Sect and the demonic monks, Luo Changfeng would naturally lean towards the so-called Divine Sword Sect.

After all, the Divine Sword Sect only came to Qingshi Town to deal with the issue of the demonic monks,

while those monks could truly harm the interests of the Luo Family.

Therefore, when the people from the Divine Sword Sect were almost at their wits’ end,

Luo Changfeng naturally had to secretly make a move and lend a hand.

Without having to personally show his face, he could resolve the issue with the demonic monks and even push the matter onto the head of the Divine Sword Sect—wasn’t this killing three birds with one stone?

“It’s these Yellow Grade lower-tier Buddha beads…”

“They seem somewhat complex!”

Luo Changfeng looked at the string of beads in his hand that had turned a scorched black.

He couldn’t help but slightly narrow his eyes.

These Buddha beads didn’t seem as simple as he had thought.

However, he didn’t have the Black Crow Flame on hand at the moment.

Even if he wanted to attempt to repair the string of Buddha beads in his hand, he didn’t have the chance!

“It seems I’ll have to wait until that old man Fu Qiu sends over the Black Crow Flame before I can act…”

Shaking his head somewhat helplessly,

Luo Changfeng then tucked the scorched black Buddha beads into the storage bag at his waist.

Afterward, he walked over to the open space where the Yellow Grade lower-tier Furnace Cauldron was placed,

intending to continue refining some new batches of the Epiphyllum Elixir.

…

Within Luo Mountain Prefecture, there are eight districts.

Three of which border Huai Shui County,

Shang Heng District, Qingqu County, and lastly, Yellow Mountain County.

Among these three districts, Yellow Mountain County covers the largest area and has the most population.

However, due to the consecutive years of severe drought, the grain yield has continued to decline,

leading to extremely powerful and rampant bandits in the mountainous Yellow Mountain County.

As for Qingqu County, its overall strength is the most formidable.

Not to mention within these four districts, even within the entirety of Luo Mountain Prefecture, Qingqu County’s overall power could rank in the top two.

As for the so-called Shang Heng District…

Although the area of this district isn’t much different from Huai Shui County, and the number of residents is very similar,

it is the weakest among these four districts.

After all, there is Huai River nearby Huai Shui County.

What does Shang Heng District have nearby?

…

As time passed by,

three days quickly elapsed. Sёarch* The novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

In Luo Mountain Prefecture, within Shang Heng District,

In the family estate of the Jiang Family, inside the room where the Family Head resides,

Jiang Taiqian, the current Family Head of the Jiang Family, was sitting quietly in the chief seat.

His expression seemed somewhat ugly.

Standing silently before him was a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man before Jiang Taiqian was named Jiang Yan,

the same person from the Jiang Family who had previously followed Jiang Xiaoyue, protecting her safety.

“So, you’re saying…”

“Xiaoyue very likely has developed feelings for that Luo Yao from the Luo Family in Qingshi Town of Huai Shui County?”

Jiang Taiqian asked with an ugly expression.

Jiang Yan silently nodded his head.

“Why didn’t you stop this?”

“Xiaoyue also calls you Uncle Jiang.”

“How can you just watch her get to know all these riffraff?”
