Which one?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhou Family Head deliberately lowered his voice, “The one who had a Longsword wielder and an old man behind him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the Family Head’s words, the Zhou Family’s eldest son began to vaguely remember.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could it be, that person’s background…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is beyond our reach?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even a mighty dragon cannot crush a local snake.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad, you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Young Master of the Zhou Family kept speaking,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could finish, the Zhou Family Head directly cut him off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Qingshi City, such words should not be spoken so carelessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though that person had left,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>if such words were overheard by the Luo Family Shadow Guards hidden in every corner and reported upward, that would spell trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That person is Luo Yao, who has been firmly appointed as the next Family Head inheritor of the Qingshi City Luo Family.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, you should now understand”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“why I and the Liang Family Head did what we did just now, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Zhou Family Head finished speaking,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the brain of the Zhou Family’s Young Master seemed to freeze for a long moment, unable to recover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until an indeterminate amount of time had passed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and the Zhou Family’s Young Master was drenched in cold sweat,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>did he gradually come back to his senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You mean to say…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“that person is Luo Yao, the internally designated next Family Head inheritor of the Qingshi City Luo Family???”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhou Family Head nodded affirmatively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And receiving such a definite answer, the Zhou Family’s eldest son couldn’t help but fall silent for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He silently cursed his own luck in his heart, wondering how it could be so terrible?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How had he managed to encounter that figure just by stepping outside?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was fortunate that his father arrived just in time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, I fear a catastrophe is imminent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it was at that moment, he thought the “outsider” had appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had even thought about how to humiliate and treat the daring outsider who stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, fortunately,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he did not have the chance to do so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My child…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heed your father’s advice, a beauty is a source of trouble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The old saying isn’t without reason.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In the future, you’d better take it easy!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, the Zhou Family Head silently walked towards the Liang Family Head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what had happened before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what grudges had existed between the Zhou and Liang families in the past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after all, both the Zhou and Liang families had borne and weathered this matter together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, let bygones be bygones as far as those old grudges are concerned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn’t having one more ally better than one more mortal enemy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, the political landscape within Qingshi City is constantly changing day by day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Zhou and Liang families, these two great families, are referred to as two of the Five Great Families within Qingshi City by outsiders,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the actual situation of the Zhou and Liang families,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>only they themselves know deep down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those above were silently observing them,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and the families below were also doing everything they could to usurp these two great families,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>in order to gain more profits and that most crucial authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such a situation, if the Zhou and Liang families could turn their swords into plowshares, it would indeed be a good thing for both families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entering the inner city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scenes that Luo Yao saw had become much more bustling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone’s faces wore genuine smiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People interacted with each other in harmony and friendship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything seemed somewhat unreal, like a dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, there’s a reason for this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you think about it, it’s quite normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Qingshi City was presided over by the Luo Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the inner city of Qingshi City is where the Luo Family’s stronghold is located.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Qingshi City Luo Family holding sway above, those below naturally did not dare to act rashly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Having not returned for so long, it feels both familiar and strange to suddenly come back…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Yao slightly squinted his own eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he walked towards the front, he murmured to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind Luo Yao, whether it was Luo Ze or Zhen, one of the Shadow Guard Three Great Commanders, neither of them responded to his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Ze, that fellow, was entirely focused on his Sword Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He naturally did not notice Luo Yao’s remarks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Zhen, one of the Shadow Guard Three Great Commanders, being a subordinate, it was only natural for him not to be so casual in front of the Young Family Head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Family Head.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Family Head wants you to quicken your pace and swiftly return to the clan’s land.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You need to hand over the matters and,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“deal with the ensuing affairs.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Luo Yao was planning to take a stroll in the inner city of Qingshi City and then grab something to eat to fill his stomach,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>before finally returning to the clan’s land,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>suddenly, a figure in black quietly appeared beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Family Head’s command?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing these words, Luo Yao’s expression stiffened a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Family Head of ours, really,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>is he that impatient?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can’t he wait just a little while longer?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, it seems Luo Yao himself really had to… confront his own Family Head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, all these thoughts were just in Luo Yao’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While it’s fine to think this way, if it really came down to taking that step…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, Luo Yao still did not have the courage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, I’ll go now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Yao whispered to the mysterious figure in black beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he quickened his pace,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>hastening towards the direction where his family’s land lay.\u003C\u002Fp>",1400,"2026-06-03T12:44:27.358Z","2026-06-03T12:44:26.417Z",1,"novelbin.me","7d4d4cb775a0c68c377caead743bdf7e4150f071f95301a71da30cd9e63c16d8","immortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--chapter-706","immortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--chapter-704",2094,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimmortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--cover.jpg"]
