behind Luo Chuan’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Chuan seemed to have noticed the confusion on his father’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiled faintly and asked his father in a low voice, “Father, do you remember that Doctor Wang Kun?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What does this have to do with Wang Kun?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Father, there’s a very important piece of information you might not have noticed…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A very important piece of information?” Hearing this, Luo Ping’s already slightly furrowed brows deepened even further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not until after he pondered for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did a crucial piece of information, which he had overlooked, dawn faintly upon him in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was about half a month ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Kun had visited the Luo Family, attending to their Elder Changfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, since Wang Kun had joined the Zhao Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And become the private physician of the Zhao Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the news of Elder Changfeng’s approaching demise, his waning days, would be known to the Zhao Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the Zhao Family could take advantage of Wang Kun’s assessment to accurately calculate the approximate time of Elder Changfeng’s death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nowadays, the Zhao Family, being one of the four great families of Qingshi Town, their such abnormal behavior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is very likely that this will be a probing move against the Luo Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Luo Family remains unmoved by the Zhao Family’s probe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then what the Luo Family will face next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Will be the stormy onslaught of the Zhao Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, Chuan’er, you mean the Zhao Family thinks we’ve concealed the news of Patriarch Changfeng’s death?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Luo Ping came back to his senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He silently looked at Luo Chuan beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s roughly the case,” Luo Chuan silently nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then Chuan’er, what do you think our Luo Family should do next in response to the Zhao Family’s probe?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One word, fight!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fight?” Luo Ping’s brows locked up once again, he felt his mind was nearly not up to the task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“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.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And for the Zhao Family’s this probe, the best solution is to chop off the hand they are trying to reach out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“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.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Only by demonstrating the absolute power of our Luo Family and repelling the Zhao Family.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can we intimidate all the other families in Qingshi Town coveting our Luo Family.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then can our Luo Family have undisturbed days in this Qingshi Town.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Luo Chuan’s voice faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room gradually fell into utter silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s not surprising that Luo Ping did not react for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Primarily because Luo Chuan’s words contained too much information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And moreover, it was about the affairs of an entire family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t just about Luo Ping or Luo Chuan as individuals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, for this matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the current Family Head of the Luo Family, Luo Ping had to consider it very carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the room, Luo Ping, seated at the head position,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long after his son Luo Chuan had left, he finally returned to his senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Perhaps, I should discuss this matter with Patriarch Changfeng…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thought Luo Ping, as he reached out to pick up the cup of hot tea placed beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, whether it was due to the overwhelming pressure or some other reason,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hands holding the porcelain teacup began to tremble inadvertently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Phew…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Phew…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huff…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after taking several deep breaths did Luo Ping’s trembling hands start to stabilize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhao Family, oh Zhao Family, why must it be like this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In Qingshi Town, the four great families have coexisted for more than three hundred years.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t living in peace… a good thing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingshi Town, Luo Family Ancestral Land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the courtyard where Elder Changfeng resided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ping looked at the courtyard in front of him. He hesitated for a moment but eventually walked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after entering the courtyard, Luo Ping found himself beneath the Stone Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, he saw Elder Changfeng flipping through a book that appeared to be the “Art of Alchemy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is Patriarch Changfeng looking to study the Art of Alchemy?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Or is he trying to find a way to save what’s fragile?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gazing at Elder Changfeng in front of him, a whirl of thoughts swirled through Luo Ping’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Luo Ping?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s this guy doing here all of a sudden, what does he want?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realizing someone had arrived, Luo Changfeng set the book in his hands down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then lifted his head and looked at Luo Ping, who seemed to be in a daze in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Changfeng reached out with his somewhat withered right hand and shook it in front of Luo Ping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah?” Luo Ping quickly came to his senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elder Changfeng…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ping slightly bowed his head in a very respectful manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you come to this old man for a particular matter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elder Changfeng, I…” Luo Ping swallowed nervously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His speech was somewhat hesitant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also seemed to become increasingly tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after taking several more deep breaths\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A probe from the Zhao Family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Luo Changfeng’s slightly cloudy eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flashes of light sparkled intermittently within his murky eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elder Changfeng, how do you view this matter with the Zhao Family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that Luo Changfeng didn’t seem to give an immediate response,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ping hesitated for a moment, then cautiously voiced his question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What little Chuan’er said is not wrong.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If our Luo Family wants to live peacefully in Qingshi Town,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“we must provide a certain deterrence to those families coveting what’s ours within the town. It’s necessary,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As for the Zhao Family…” Luo Ping said, but then paused for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at Luo Ping beside him, who seemed somewhat at a loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Changfeng reached out and slowly picked up the book named “Introduction to Alchemy” from the stone table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened it and returned to the page he was previously looking at.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If the Zhao Family dares to stretch out one hand, chop off that hand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If they dare to stretch out two hands, then chop off both their hands.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Those who dare trouble the Luo Family must always pay a certain price!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said this, Luo Changfeng then focused his attention back on the book in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why, is there anything else you want to discuss with me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Changfeng noticed that Luo Ping had not left his side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, he glanced at Luo Ping beside him and asked softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, there’s nothing else…” After coming back to his senses, Luo Ping shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly turned around and left the courtyard of Patriarch Changfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>",1240,"2026-06-03T12:43:46.723Z","2026-06-03T12:43:39.762Z",1,"novelbin.me","fd277deadde7fa4351931255c70bfa8c2daffe0cff5ca7727c4e6b0d537e3b0b","immortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--chapter-432","immortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--chapter-431",2094,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimmortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--cover.jpg"]
