Chapter 134: Chapter 96: The Fall of the Ding Family Patriarch, The Demise of the Five Towns Alliance_3
And as Luo Yong spoke these words,
before Tang Jian had a chance to say anything,
about a third of the people in the hall instantly turned pale.
Fear and unease were written all over their faces,
and at this moment, these sentiments increased manifold.
In the hall, while some were fraught with anxiety, there were also many whose eyes gleamed with wild joy.
Opportunity – for the small and medium forces in those five towns,
this was an excellent opportunity without a doubt.
If the major families within the Five Towns Alliance were purged or exterminated, countless ownerless pieces of the pie would appear within the five towns.
If those smaller forces could seize this opportunity well,
why would they struggle to become a major family force or even a top family force within the five towns?
“Luo brother, is there even a need to consider?”
“The rise of the Luo Family is inevitable.”
“Anyone who dares to obstruct the rise of the Luo Family will surely be on a path to death.”
“Besides, who knows if those families within the Five Towns Alliance, after we have killed so many of their kin, will bear a grudge against our Luo Family?”
“Even if there truly are sincere people willing to submit to our Luo Family,
what are the chances of that happening?”
“So, instead of pondering over so much, isn’t it simpler to make a clean cut?”
“Wouldn’t it be better to strangle all sources of enmity at once?”
Luo Yong laughed heartily twice, then nodded silently, “Tang, my younger brother, your thoughts align perfectly with mine, perfectly indeed!”
Having said that, Luo Yong stood up.
He walked out of the hall silently with Tang Jian by his side.
Just as they were about to leave the hall,
Luo Yong seemed to have thought of something, then spoke softly to the factions not part of the Five Towns Alliance in the hall, “The upcoming matters will be handled by you people of the five small towns. To gain something, one must always pay a certain price…”
As his voice trailed off, Luo Yong had already disappeared from their view.
In the hall, following Luo Yong’s departure,
those from the family forces slowly lifted their heads, exchanging glances with each other.
The meaning behind Luo Yong’s words was crystal clear to everyone.
The Luo Family had already pronounced the death sentence for the people of the Five Towns Alliance.
However, the Luo Family did not want to get their hands dirty.
So, whether the family forces outside the Five Towns Alliance could satisfy the Luo Family, whether they could get on board the big ship that was the Luo Family,
all depended on their actions to come.
“Take action!!!”
As a cry rang out from those not part of the Five Towns Alliance within the hall,
the Alliance and the other factions instantly clashed.
…
About a half hour later,
the chaos in the hall ended.
“My Lord,”
outside the hall, a man with somewhat dark skin, sporting a bald head,
standing about two meters tall with a strong build,
covered in blood and emanating the aura of Bone Refinement Perfection, was Zhang Huang, the head of the Zhang Family.
He silently walked up behind Luo Yong
and slightly bowed his head.
The Zhang Family was one of the longstanding family forces in East Earth Town.
Due to long-standing disputes with the Ding Family,
the Zhang Family’s power was consistently suppressed by them within East Earth Town.
“Is it over?”
Luo Yong glanced at Zhang Huang behind him and nodded with satisfaction.
Afterward, he quietly left the Ding Family Manor.
…
Qingshi Town, Luo Family Ancestral Land.
Within the courtyard where the Ancestor of the Luo Family resided.
At that moment, Luo Changfeng was silently standing beside a Furnace Cauldron.
He was continuously refining his newly improved version of the Epiphyllum Elixir.
Previously, since the new version of the Epiphyllum Elixir was a novel type of elixir,
it had never appeared on the market before.
Thus, it was difficult to set a price for it.
But with the new version of the Epiphyllum Elixir undergoing a series of price evaluations by many Elders from the Main Sect of the Wan Dan Sect,
the new Epiphyllum Elixir was eventually priced at one hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones per piece.
Yes, you heard me right.
It’s one hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones per piece.
Its price was about twenty times higher than that of ordinary Yellow Grade low-grade elixirs.
The reason why the new version of the Epiphyllum Elixir could command such a high price
mainly lay in the fact that it significantly reduced side effects, from previously sapping lifespan, potential, and various abilities,
to now merely sapping potential.
Moreover, the higher the potential of the person,
the more powerful the strength they could obtain.
And precisely because of this, as soon as the new version of the Epiphyllum Elixir was launched, it was instantly bought by cultivators.
“If I say, roughly every twenty attempts yields one success…”
“Then the cost of the new version of the Epiphyllum Elixir would be around 40-50 Low-grade Spirit Stones.”
“And if one batch produces three pieces, it could yield a profit of about one hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones.”
“If the number of elixirs produced in one batch of the new version of Epiphyllum Elixir is even greater.”
“The profit I could make would skyrocket accordingly.”
“It seems that refining this new version of the Yellow Grade low-grade Epiphyllum Elixir is the key to wealth…”
He thought to himself.
Soon after, Luo Changfeng opened the lid of the Yellow Grade low-grade Furnace Cauldron before him.
As the lid was lifted, a rich fragrance of elixirs assailed him.
“Wow, it actually succeeded.”
“And this batch… produced a total of seven new version Epiphyllum Elixirs.”
“Six Yellow Grade low-grade and one Yellow Grade mid-grade?”
“Damn, what a windfall this is!!!”
Quite excited, Luo Changfeng placed the seven new version Epiphyllum Elixirs from the bottom of the Furnace Cauldron into two white porcelain bottles.
He waved his hand to disperse the flames beneath the Furnace Cauldron.
Then he channeled the Qi-Blood Force within his body
into the Cooling Charm stuck on the side of the Furnace Cauldron.
As the Cooling Charm was activated,
the temperature of the Furnace Cauldron gradually dropped.
Luo Changfeng then manually turned off the effect of the Cooling Charm near the Furnace Cauldron.
Waving his hand, he relit the flame beneath the Furnace Cauldron
and began a new round of refining the new version of the Yellow Grade low-grade Epiphyllum Elixir.
…
The Cooling Charm stuck next to the Furnace Cauldron.
This was a new way of using the Cooling Charm that Luo Changfeng had figured out recently.
Stuck directly onto an object, it could rapidly cool it down.
If the temperature dropped to a certain level, you could even choose to switch off the Cooling Charm’s function.
In this way, it directly saved Luo Changfeng a lot of waiting time.
