Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood

In the room.

Lu Jun, who was by Luo Ping's side, pondered for a while.

Then he spoke in a low voice to Luo Ping beside him,

"Now, on one side, the New Emperor Feng Wumian is continuously attacking Qingcheng Prefecture."

"Lately, the situation of this prefecture's lands has become increasingly precarious."

"Besides, Feng Wuhen, who occupies the lands of two prefectures,"

"and us, the Luo Family,"

"all three forces are eyeing Qingcheng Prefecture, wishing to divide it up."

"How to obtain the greatest benefit, I don't know."

"But what I do know is..."

"how to act in a way that makes the situation in the Da Feng Dynasty more advantageous for us."

Upon hearing these words, Luo Ping couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and said, "Elaborate..."

Lu Jun glanced around at the people nearby.

Then, he gave a slight cough and continued, "A tripartite stand-off has always been the most stable, If the gateway to Qingcheng Prefecture is breached by the faction of the New Emperor Feng Wumian, Feng Wumian's side will surely have a great advantage when dividing the spoils."

"Currently, Feng Wumian's combined strength is already strong enough,"

"if the power of Feng Wumian's faction sees further enhancement, it could be quite disadvantageous for our Luo Family."

"So, rather than following behind Feng Wumian and dividing those not-too-substantial benefits,"

"I think it would be better to create some obstacles for the New Emperor Feng Wumian's side when they forcefully break through the gates of Qingcheng Prefecture."

"Let Feng Wuhen pick up some easy gains."

"This could be a good option indeed."

"Family Head, what do you think?"

...

Lu Jun's words,

slowly echoed in this room.

The middle-aged men seated around the room, each at a wooden desk, dealing with documents,

wore an expression of surprise on their faces upon hearing his words.

It seemed that no one had anticipated

that Lu Jun would make such a statement.

And sitting in the main seat,

Luo Ping, who had become somewhat silent after listening to these words,

suddenly lifted his head.

A look of agreement flashed through his eyes.

What Lu Jun said did make sense.

If the gates of Qingcheng Prefecture were to be forcibly opened by the faction of the New Emperor Feng Wumian,

ultimately,

it would be Feng Wumian's side that would gain the most benefit.

Feng Wuhen, and the Luo Family he belonged to,

even if they could follow behind Feng Wumian and divide some benefits,

those would only be minor gains.

And such gains might not bring any significant improvement to their overall strength.

But if, at this time,

the Luo Family chose not to divide Qingcheng Prefecture but instead to cause trouble for the New Emperor Feng Wumian's faction,

the situation would immediately be different.

First of all, under the threat of the Luo Family,

the New Emperor Feng Wumian's faction would not be able to take down Qingcheng Prefecture quickly.

And once Feng Wumian's progress was stalled,

Feng Wuhen would certainly take advantage of this opportunity to quickly swallow up the territory of Qingcheng Prefecture.

By that time, even if Feng Wumian realized the Luo Family's intentions, he would already be without any recourse.

Besides, there's another important point,

within the Royal Feng Family, it was not all harmony.

Not to mention the old monsters within the Royal Feng Family,

just Feng Wumian and Feng Wuhen,

their covetousness for the supreme throne of the Da Feng Dynasty had not been a matter of just a day or two.

If previously, Feng Wuhen was not strong, that would be another matter,

but if Feng Wuhen captured most of Qingcheng Prefecture's territory,

and his combined strength saw a significant increase,

reaching the point where he could compete with Feng Wumian...

Feng Wuhen would certainly no longer suppress his own desires.

...

After the next course of action was decided on,

Luo Ping no longer thought about the affairs of Qingcheng Prefecture,

but instead sat leisurely at the main seat,

drinking the hot tea in his hand and reviewing the documents before him.

Life couldn't be more pleasant.

...

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

Da Feng Dynasty, Zijin Prefecture.

Within a majestic and imposing Imperial Palace,

in a palace where only two people were present,

a young man dressed in an Emperor's Robe embroidered with nine golden dragons,

sat silently in the main seat.

In front of him stood a middle-aged man dressed in plain gray,

with his head slightly bowed and a face full of respectful demeanor.

"How is the situation?" asked Feng Wumian, who was sitting sedately leaning against the Golden Throne, in a low voice to Zhong Yu in front of him.

"Your Majesty..."

Zhong Yu first respectfully addressed him,

then he reported in a low voice to Feng Wumian: "The defenses of Qingcheng Prefecture are growing weaker, and it is expected that within no more than ten days, the gates of Qingcheng Prefecture are sure to fall!"

Feng Wumian heard this and nodded silently.

Afterward, he pondered for a moment,

"How are my second brother and the Luo Family, which sits on the lands of three prefectures, faring now?

"Any changes?

"Still the same as usual?"

Zhong Yu bowed and answered in a low voice, "Both sides are still stationing troops at the border, seemingly just waiting for the gates of Qingcheng Prefecture to be forcibly opened, and then they will directly dispatch troops to divide up the lands of Qingcheng Prefecture..."

Having said this, Zhong Yu then closed his mouth.
