Chapter 183: Chapter 113: Yellow Mountain County, White Lotus Stockade!_1

“General, this is a letter from the Family Head for you…”

After the servant entered the tent,

he immediately knelt on one knee and presented an unopened letter with both hands.

Luo Yong took the letter from the man’s hands.

He then opened it and read in silence.

But the more he read, the more surprised he became, and he felt it was somewhat incredible.

“Alright, I got it.”

“You may leave…”

After Luo Yong finished reading the letter, he waved the servant away.

Following the departure of the Luo Family servant from the tent,

the grand hoaxer Tang Jian, holding a Feather Fan, followed suit and quietly approached.

His face displayed a hint of curiosity.

He asked Luo Yong, “What happened? What’s going on?”

Luo Yong glanced at Tang Jian beside him and spoke in a low voice, “Why don’t you take a guess?”

Tang Jian’s corner eye twitched slightly. Sёarᴄh the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

His face was full of black lines.

What do you mean, why don’t you take a guess?

Although Tang Jian was often mysterious and could deduce many unknown matters through various calculations,

such actions usually required giving up something.

If possible, he naturally would not abuse his abilities recklessly.

“Just kidding.” Realizing Tang Jian looked somewhat distressed, Luo Yong, while walking toward the outside of the tent, said in a low voice, “Anyway, the gist of the Family Head’s meaning is that Patriarch Changfeng took a walk outside and conveniently killed all the Viscera Refinement practitioners from the Chen Family, Feng Family, and Tang Family.

“Ah?”

Upon hearing this, Tang Jian looked incredulously towards Luo Yong, “Just took a walk outside and conveniently killed all the Organ Refinement Realm practitioners from the Chen Family, Feng Family, and Tang Family, these three major families?”

Luo Yong nodded silently, his expression very serious, “Yes, that’s roughly what the letter said.”

“Then, the Family Head asked me to dispatch troops as soon as possible to take over the territories and the entire production chains of those three powers.”

“Of course, the most important…”

“is the items within the clan grounds of the Chen Family, Feng Family, and Tang Family.”

“According to the description in the Family Head’s letter, because there were too many items, Patriarch Changfeng couldn’t take them all, so we have to wait to clean up…”

…

As the conversation ended,

the atmosphere in the tent gradually became more and more silent.

Only after quite a while did the grand hoaxer Tang Jian, dressed in a Taoist Robe with the Feather Fan fallen on the ground, finally snap back to reality.

He squatted slightly to pick up the White Feather Fan from the ground.

Afterward, with a somewhat helpless look on his face, he muttered to himself, “I originally thought that this war would last at least three to five years. I didn’t expect… in just less than a day, the three major families of the Huai Shui County—the Chen Family, Feng Family, and Tang Family—would be annihilated.”

“And if this matter is true…”

“Just how profound has the old patriarch of the Luo Family’s cultivation reached?”

“Above Viscera Refinement, the Blood Cultivation?”

“It must be so,” he thought.

In the tent, seeing the grand hoaxer Tang Jian deep in thought, Luo Yong asked, “So, what are your thoughts? Shall we divide our forces into three and directly take down all the territories under the three powers, or do we go one by one?”

After pondering for a moment, Tang Jian spoke in a low voice, “Let’s do it one by one, there’s plenty of time, no rush…”

“Of course, there’s another very important reason…”

“That is, after unifying Huai Shui County, the enemies we, the Luo Family, will face next are surely going to be stronger than the Chen Family, Feng Family, and Tang Family.”

“We should minimize our soldiers’ losses whenever possible.”

…

After the exchange inside the tent came to an end,

the 150,000 armored elites under Luo Yong’s command

began a fierce attack on the Feng Family.

Yes, the Feng Family was the first target Luo Yong and Tang Jian chose.

Not only because the Feng Family’s territories were the largest,

but also because the Feng Family had fewer soldiers stationed on the border for defense compared to the Chen Family.

Without Organ Refinement Realm cultivators to defend them,

without those family elders,

the gradual fall of the territories under the three families—Feng, Chen, and Tang—had already become a foregone conclusion.

…

Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, another month had passed.

In fact, over twenty days ago,

the Luo Family had already succeeded in completely unifying Huai Shui County.

During the following time, the Luo Family spent most of it governing their newly acquired territories.

Winning them over was not a difficult task.

But governing them well,

that was the challenging part.

…

Similarly, as the month passed,

the climate within the Da Feng Dynasty grew increasingly hotter.

In several northern prefectures, the locust plague grew worse by the day.

The number of locusts continued to increase, and the scale of destruction they wrought grew ever larger.

Grains had completely failed to produce.

And after the locusts had stripped clean the grains in the fields,

they turned their appetites toward any living being they could find,

not sparing even humans.

As for the southern prefectures,

although they were somewhat better off than the northern ones,

that was only by a margin.

As time went on, the locust plagues began to erupt in the southern prefectures as well,

although their number and scale couldn’t yet compare to those in the north.
