Chapter 407

"Fellow Daoist Kang, it's been many years, your style is even better than before!"

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Luo, one should look at each other with new eyes after three days of separation. I knew you were not a thing in a pool; Dahe Workshop couldn't trap you, and neither could this Tianlan Immortal City!"

In the main hall of Luo Tian, the two men talked happily.

"This time, I troubled you." Luo Chen thanked him sincerely.

The situation the Luo Tian Society faced at that time was not just the threat from the Flame Alliance vassals and Qin Tairan.

Those countless rogue cultivators watching were seemingly just onlookers eating melons and watching the show.

But if the Luo Tian Society really collapsed, they would be vultures swooping down crazily.

When the wall falls, everyone pushes; it couldn't be more like this!

Kang Dongyue's small operations outside, seemingly irrelevant to the overall situation, could save the Luo Tian Society a lot of trouble.

Regarding this, Kang Dongyue did not take credit.

"Just some small tricks of verbal bewitchment, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning!"

He smiled and mentioned the time Luo Chen bid for life-saving elixirs for him years ago.

Luo Chen naturally smiled back.

Afterwards, Kang Dongyue stated his real purpose for staying here.

After listening, Luo Chen's expression was calm.

"Liuguang Workshop?"

Kang Dongyue said melancholically: "Yes, that Liuguang Workshop has been famous for its many rogue cultivators for many years. Over the years, the Bai family of Liuguang Workshop didn't know where they got a secret technique and completely upgraded that piece of spiritual land to the second tier. A second Foundation Establishment cultivator appeared in the clan, and they also recruited a Foundation Establishment guest cultivator from outside. Now, it is completely the overlord of Liuguang Workshop."

Luo Chen was thoughtful.

Kang Dongyue continued: "If it were just the family's prosperity, that would be fine, but they happened to block the trade route of my Kang family to Tianlan."

"You are vassals of the Sword Sect, do they dare to target your caravan?" Luo Chen was puzzled.

Kang Dongyue shook his head, "It's too far, the Sword Sect is too far from our Taishan Workshop. The Bai family's rogue cultivator habits haven't changed; after changing their appearance, even if they did robbery, we have no evidence."

Luo Chen understood the other party's thoughts, "So, you want to use the hands of my Luo Tian Society to deal with the Bai family?"

"Exactly!"

Kang Dongyue did not twist, and told the truth.

Luo Chen pondered for a long time, and finally said slowly: "We can help with this matter, but..."

Speaking of this, he sighed.

"I think you are clear about the current situation of my Luo Tian Society. The camp is full of wounded soldiers, and many Foundation Establishment True Persons are injured; I'm afraid it's not suitable for going out to fight in the short term."

Kang Dongyue nodded repeatedly, "I know this, I can afford to wait!"

Can afford to wait?

Luo Chen sized up the other party for a while and understood the other party's thoughts.

I'm afraid it's not just wanting to maintain the Kang family's trade route, but also eyeing the complete second-tier spiritual land of the Bai family!

The second-tier spiritual land of the Bai family in the past was just a pseudo-second-tier spiritual land formed by relying on that huge Youbai tree.

Now it is the real thing.

The Kang family once shared a second-tier spiritual land with the Huo family.

But the Three-Footed River-Swallowing Toad destroyed the Huo family back then, and also caused the second-tier spiritual land of Taishan Workshop to be destroyed.

They are planning to change their family residence!

This kind of thing, for the current Luo Tian Society, is nothing, just two or three Foundation Establishment True Persons.

But for the Kang family, it is a top priority involving the rise and fall of a clan.

No wonder the other party stayed in Danxia for a long time and had to see him.

Luo Chen also remembered that six or seven years ago, the Kang family invited the Luo Tian Society many times to go to Taishan Workshop to establish a branch, targeting the Bai family.

Now it seems that this matter was planned long ago, not suddenly thought of!

Luo Chen thought for a moment and said: "In a few years, after the Luo Tian Society recovers its strength here in Tianlan, I will send people to go there. At that time, they will cooperate with your Kang family."

Speaking of this, Luo Chen suddenly asked: "What about the Yu family?"

Kang Dongyue was startled, not knowing what Luo Chen meant by mentioning the Yu family.

However, since the other party wanted to ask, he could naturally talk about it.

After learning about the recent situation of the Yu family from Kang Dongyue, Luo Chen nodded slightly.

He never forgot which parties participated in the Battle of Gaoling Plain back then.

The Huo family, the Bai family, the Dajiang Gang, the rogue cultivator Tu Shan, and that Yu Rou who drove the spirit beast!

Now the Huo family is gone, the Dajiang Gang is scattered, and Tu Shan is probably reincarnated.

But the remaining two enemies, if there is a chance, must definitely avenge the hatred of that year!

"Talking happily with Fellow Daoist tonight, looking forward to being a guest at my Taishan Workshop next time."

"Definitely, definitely!"

Kang Dongyue left with a smile.

He had already set the time to leave Tianlan tomorrow and return to his family.

Some people leave, but some people want to stay!

Before long, Luo Chen reached a consensus with Xing Zonghan.

The former head of the Xing family of Tiandao Peak, Luo Chen had a life-saving grace for him, and also helped him destroy his enemy, the Ying family of Tianying Peak.

In that battle, Xing Zonghan killed quite happily.

To avoid dragging down the Luo Tian Society, he left quietly.

Over the years, he has been looking for a place to cultivate in seclusion, and even did not participate in the Leishan battlefield.

This time, hearing that the Luo Tian Society was attacked, he rushed to help.

After the war ended, he immediately proposed to join the Luo Tian Society!

Regarding this matter, Sima Huiniang could not decide.

Although she manages all the personnel of the Luo Tian Society.

But involving the level of Foundation Establishment True Person, Luo Chen must make the final decision.

"Fellow Daoist is willing to join my Luo Tian Society and seek the Great Dao together, I naturally welcome it!"

Xing Zonghan smiled, "In that case, I will trouble you more in the future, President!"

Luo Chen also had a face full of smiles.

After this battle, the Luo Tian Society suffered heavy losses.

But under the huge losses, there were also huge gains.

Status!

The Luo Tian Society gained status!

It did not come because of him alone, but also because of the powerful strength shown by the Luo Tian Society in this battle.

Because of this status, it can naturally attract many cultivators to join.

In the past, the Luo Tian Society could at most attract some Qi Refining cultivators among rogue cultivators.

But this time, first there was Saint Physician Sun of the Sun Family Medical Hall, and then there was Xing Zonghan.

And this is just the beginning.

After the Luo Tian Society recovers its full strength, there will only be more and more forces willing to get close to them.

This kind of great trend cannot be formed just by farming and doing business.

It must be fought with real swords and guns to make a deep impression on people, thereby attracting others to join.

Tonight.

The people Luo Chen wants to see are not just these two.

Qiu Liangyue, representing the lineage of True Person Bo Shuang of the Ice Fortress, also helped in the previous battle.

This is the advance goodwill of that Core Formation mid-stage cultivator.

Yue Chong, the head of the Yue family of Shaohua Mountain.

It is not friendship, but interest.

Luo Chen gave the other party a jade slip he obtained from the storage bag of a late-stage Foundation Establishment great cultivator of the Sword Sect on the Leishan battlefield as a reward.

"Although it is a side-door sword scripture, it can also greatly improve my Yue family."

"President Luo, thank you for this matter!"

Having obtained that sword scripture, Yue Chong left satisfied.

By this time, the people Luo Chen wanted to see were almost finished.

The sky was gradually brightening.

Luo Chen sat alone in the main hall, looking exhausted, closing his eyes for a nap.

For these days, he had not rested at all.

Multiple battles, calculating and planning, walking among Core Formation True Persons, treating the wounded, exchanging interests...

If it were anyone else, they would have collapsed long ago.

But he relied on his strong willpower to hold on.

This rest, the huge fatigue struck like a tide.

When he woke up.

The outside world was already bright stars and sparse moon again.

He looked at the thin blanket draped over him, and felt a little warmth in his heart.

It had Huiniang's scent on it.

The other party had come once halfway through, he could feel it.

Lifting the thin blanket, Luo Chen stood up and stretched.

The crackling sound of bones trembling sounded like thunderous drums.

The powerful physique once again gave him endless energy.

Coming out of the Luo Tian main hall, a graceful figure was walking over in a hurry.

"President, you're awake!"

"Huiniang, walk with me!"

"Hmm."

A man and a woman, facing the cool night breeze in the mountains, strolled on the Danxia trail.

The faint breeze blew away the war and blood that had lingered for many days.

It also smoothed out the restlessness in Luo Chen's heart.

The two talked a lot, but very briefly.

"Has Min Longyu woken up?"

"Woken up."

"What about Li Yingzhang?"

"Still receiving treatment, but Saint Physician Sun said his foundation is very solid, and he will recover very quickly."

"Over at Murong Qinglian's side..."

"I know, I will send more people to take care of her."

"Her current state is not very suitable for doing things, arrange a long vacation!"

"The Merit Hall cannot be without a master for a day, I intend to let Wenjie act as the hall master."

"Hmm, you can handle these personnel appointments in the future. By the way, the ten-year period promised by Xu Huanzhen back then, is it up?"

"It has long passed."

"He didn't mention leaving?"

"No, I think he has already gotten used to the Luo Tian Society."

"Give him an extra ten percent of the Spirit Beast Hall's revenue!"

"Would that be too much?"

"Over the years, Xu Huanzhen has been dutiful, and also lost a white crane for the Luo Tian Society, and now the Golden-Crowned Predatory Feather Eagle that was finally cultivated has also died; we should compensate him a little."

"Hmm, I listen to you."

"Is the spirit stone reserve in the hall bottoming out now?"

"Yes. But you don't have to worry, I have talked to them all. Some channel merchants' payments are owed first, and the downstream payments are settled in advance; it won't be a problem for a while."

"How long until recovery?"

"One year to recover vitality, three years to return to the former peak, give me ten years and the Luo Tian Society will become the richest force in Tianlan Immortal City!"

"After finishing things here, I might need to cultivate in seclusion for a while. The time might be a year, or three to five years, it's hard to say."

"Go ahead, I'm here for things in the society."

"Thank you for your hard work."

"You're saying this again!"

The footsteps stopped on a cliff.

Luo Chen looked down at the dark bottom of the mountain behind the mountain.

Here is the burial place of the deceased cultivators of the Luo Tian Society.

Green mountain burial ground, Luo Tian hero tomb.

Before long, new graves will be added here.

Three days later.

Danxia closed the mountain, not seeing outside guests.

White banners hung high, yellow paper filled the sky.

The sound of suona and gongs, mixed with bursts of crying, seemed quite sad and heavy.

The funeral lasted for a full seven days.

After seven days of stopping the spirit, it was buried on an auspicious day.

Where the back mountain of Danxia is, a crowd of people gathered together.

Under Luo Chen's leadership, coffin after coffin was buried, and tombstone after tombstone was erected.

Wang Yuan stood beside a new grave, and Ceng Yilong, who had achieved success in body refining, knelt on the ground, whispering "Mother, Mother..."

Zhou Yuanli, who had been busy for a long time, hurried over.

For his good friend Liu Qiang, he poured three cups of wine, inserted a stick of incense, and made a promise.

In the future, he would let one of his sons change his surname to Liu and inherit Liu Qiang's incense.

Su Xiaolin was a loner, and it seemed no one cared when he died.

But in front of his grave, there were quite a few melons, fruits, and incense candles.

Those were all cultivators of the Luo Web, inserting them in silence.

And for many days, Murong Qinglian, who had been wooden and dull, suddenly wailed loudly, holding Qin Liangchen's tombstone and crying endlessly.

The former Merit Hall Master, the so-called demeanor and style, vanished at this moment.

But now, no one laughed.

Because here, it was all such a scene.

Luo Chen had retreated behind the crowd, his face tense, his lips bitten white.

Sima Huiniang and Gu Caiyi stood on his sides, vaguely able to detect his body trembling.

Gu Caiyi said worriedly and softly: "President, what's wrong with you?"

Luo Chen shook his head, still pursing his lips without speaking.

He suddenly had a trace of regret in his heart.

Regret whether he should have spared Yan Leizi's life back then, so he wouldn't have provoked Di Wanyun.

Regret whether he shouldn't have hidden in the dark, and come out earlier to face the pressure of the Flame Alliance Core Formation.

Regret whether he was too rash to confirm the relationship with Huiniang and Caiyi, otherwise, many years later, perhaps the one kneeling and crying in front of the tomb would be himself, or wondering if it was them.

Regret...

For a long time!

Luo Chen shook his head violently.

"How can there be so much regret!"

"Life is not satisfactory, eight or nine out of ten."

"In the end, it's all because I'm not strong enough!"

"If I were strong enough, how would the petty people dare to invade? If I were strong enough, one person attains the Dao, and the chickens and dogs ascend to heaven! If I were strong enough, the one kneeling and crying now should be the enemy!"

Crack!

The joints sounded, and then the wide palm let go.

Luo Chen left quietly.

The matter here is over, the future is still long.

He cannot stop his forward steps.

Both for himself and for those who have placed their lives on him.
