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

Chapter 173: Chapter 109: The Spirit Medicine Sect, a Subordinate Sect of the Wan Dan Sect? The First Yellow Grade Alchemist Who Wanted to Join!_3
 

“If it were any other lower-ranking sub-sect, I would let it be,”

“But that Yellow Grade junior alchemist is from the Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect in Jiangnan Prefecture, which ranks third amongst the thirteen sub-sects in the Da Feng Dynasty.”

“If we could lure that Yellow Grade junior alchemist from the Jiangnan Prefecture Sub-sect…”

Fu Qiu spoke in a low voice.

However, before he could finish his words this time, Luo Changfeng interrupted him.

“Sub-sects are inherently competitive with one another.”

“Ever since our Luo Mountain Prefecture Sub-sect reformed that profit-sharing system,”

“We and those sub-sects are no longer on the same path.”

“So, just go ahead and poach them.”

“Don’t hesitate.”

As Luo Changfeng finished speaking, the hesitance in Fu Qiu’s eyes gradually faded away.

What remained was a deep sense of determination.

Luo brother was right.

Ever since they from the Luo Mountain Prefecture Sub-sect reformed the profit-sharing system, their path had diverged from the other sub-sects.

So what if they poached that Yellow Grade junior alchemist?

Would the Jiangnan Prefecture really start a fight with them over it?

Although the rivalry between the Wan Dan Sect Sub-sects was fierce,

It was usually carried out behind the scenes.

Nobody had ever dared to take direct action openly.

That was something the Main Sect of Wan Dan Sect would never allow.

…

After chatting with old man Fu Qiu for a while longer,

Fu Qiu left the courtyard very satisfied.

Following the departure of the old man, only Luo Changfeng remained in the small courtyard.

“Once again, it’s just me left…”

Luo Changfeng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he gazed in the direction of Fu Qiu’s departure, momentarily lost in thought.

However, it was only for a brief moment.

He then smiled and shook his head.

“Being alone is not so bad.”

“Is the process of cultivating spiritual medicine really that complicated?”

Luo Changfeng didn’t suspect that Fu Qiu was deceiving him.

He simply wanted to give it a try.

Ever since he had thought of cultivating spiritual medicine, his innate farming gene started to stir within him.

Even if he failed in the end, it wouldn’t matter.

At least he would have tried.

If he did nothing and simply gave up…

Naturally, Luo Changfeng wouldn’t be willing to accept that.

…

In the blink of an eye, another day had passed.

As he didn’t have spiritual earth, nor the seeds of spiritual medicine,

Luo Changfeng hadn’t started his grand farming project yet.

He was just refining elixirs while silently pondering over his farming plan in his mind.

Of course, because the ingredients for the new Epiphyllum Elixir had been bought out by other sub-sects,

To continue earning Spirit Stones, Luo Changfeng had to choose to refine other elixirs.

If he wanted, he could certainly use his status as the current Sect Master of the Luo Mountain Prefecture Sub-sect of Wan Dan Sect to requisition the stockpile of Spirit Stones from the sub-sect.

But he didn’t want to do that.

Instead of draining the pond to get all the fish, he preferred a steady, sustainable flow.

Besides, for some reason, he always felt that the Luo Mountain Prefecture Sub-sect would gradually grow and strengthen,

And even become an indispensable arm for him.

Therefore, no matter what,

Unless he truly reached a point of no return and had to use the sub-sect’s stockpile of Spirit Stones,

He would certainly not choose to do so.

…

While Luo Changfeng was refining elixirs,

the war within Huai Shui County gradually became even more brutal.

The Feng Family, the Chen Family.

These two major families’ allied forces grew more and more valiant as they fought.

There were even several times when they wanted to completely eradicate all of the Tang Family’s living forces in one fell swoop.

But it seemed as if the heavens favored the Tang Family, resulting in their several close calls always miraculously turning into escapes from danger.

…

Outside Qingshi Town, on the borderlines of the Chen Family and Feng Family forces.

Within a massive military camp that stretched as far as the eye could see,

inside the largest tent of all,

Luo Yong, who was in charge of the Luo Family’s army, was currently speaking with a look of anxiety on his face.

Tang Yuan, the current Great Elder of the Tang Family, was saying something to him.

“General Luo, our Tang Family has already kept our promise by giving three-tenths of our stored food supplies to the Luo Family,” Tang Yuan said urgently.

“When will the Luo Family finally send troops to attack the Chen Family and the Feng Family, to give our Tang Family a breather?”

Inside the tent, Tang Yuan became more and more agitated as he spoke,

and, by the end of it,

his face had turned quite red.

“Oh? The Tang Family has kept their promise?” Luo Yong asked, feigning ignorance.

“They truly gave us three-tenths of their total food reserves?”

“Why wasn’t I informed of this?”

At the main seat, Luo Yong, clad in imposing armor, looked knowingly towards Tang Jian, the great swindler.

“General, the Tang Family has indeed kept their promise,” Tang Jian, who was sitting beside Luo Yong, said softly,

gently fluttering the pure white feather fan in his hand.

“Oh?”

“Then why didn’t you remind me earlier?”

“To think I’ve kept my friend waiting for such a long time…” Luo Yong looked reproachfully in Tang Jian’s direction.

“The fault is mine…”

“I overlooked this matter…” Tang Jian, dressed in his Taoist robe, said.

But though he said so,

there was no sign of remorse in his demeanor, and Luo Yong did not pursue the matter further.

Clearly, Luo Yong must have been well aware of this situation already.

…

After a while of communication with Luo Yong,

Tang Yuan, the Great Elder of the Tang Family, finally left the Luo Family’s military camp.

Inside the commanding tent of the Luo Family’s military camp,

after seeing Tang Yuan leave, Luo Yong turned to Tang Jian and asked in a soft voice, “Should we really help with this matter?”

“Now that we have the food, isn’t it fine to just sit back and watch the tigers fight?”

A look of puzzlement crossed Luo Yong’s face.

What the Luo Family had initially wanted was the Tang Family’s supply of food.

Now that they had the food,

wasn’t it possible for the Luo Family to sit on the high ground and watch the three forces fight amongst themselves?

“Brother Luo, balance is crucial…”

“Among the four powers of Huai Shui County, our Luo Family has the weakest foundation,” Tang Jian whispered.

“If we truly wish to unify the entire Huai Shui County in the future,”

“this time, we must help, we have no choice but to help.”

Inside the tent, Tang Jian’s voice echoed slowly.

At that moment, Luo Yong, the controller of the army,

could not help but bow his head slightly,

apparently pondering the pros and cons of the situation.
