IMMORTALITY CULTIVATION: I CAN INCREASE MY STATS USING CLANSMEN'S QI-BLOOD

Chapter 659: Chapter 317 Yan Yiqing’s Demise, A New Administration?_2

“`

“It seems that even cultivators from some small places should not be underestimated.”

At this moment,

The cross-legged old monk finally slowly stood up.

He silently stepped toward the enormous spherical body.

Until he stood right below the massive sphere.

He waved his hand and controlled the White Brahma Lotus to unlock the giant sphere.

[Creak…]

[Creak…]

[Creak…]

The massive spherical body gradually opened.

The somewhat piercing noise slowly began to echo in the vicinity.

As the massive sphere continued to be opened,

Streams of blood started pouring down towards the ground.

A rich scent of blood gradually spread around.

The old monk from White Brahma Temple didn’t pay too much attention to these changes.

He just silently raised his head, slightly squinted his eyes, and looked towards the gradually unlocking sphere in the void.

“Let’s die together!”

A somewhat hoarse voice suddenly echoed from above.

A somewhat blurry figure swiftly descended from the void.

[Boom!!!]

A loud noise resounded once again.

Yan Yiqing, covered in blood, his eyes bloodshot and his body even twisted.

At this moment, his eyes were wide.

Occasionally, a look of disbelief flashed through them.

Why?

Why?

Why is this happening?

Even now, did this old monk in front of him still not let down his guard?

Even though he used himself as bait to perform a feigned death,

was he still unable to harm the demon monk before him at all?

“Why bother?”

The old monk reached out with his right hand thunderously, piercing directly through the heart of Yan Family’s Mortal Transcendence: “With your impending doom, why resist so desperately?”

The old monk looked at the Mortal Transcendence from the Yan Family in front of him. He sighed slightly in resignation.

And Yan Yiqing, whose heart was pierced through,

suddenly spewed a mouthful of blood mixed with pieces of viscera and small chunks of flesh.

Right until the moment before his death,

his eyes still bloodshot, he clutched the spiritual sword in his hand that seemed to have reached its limit and had become somewhat fragmented, intent on decapitating the old monk before him.

“A Mortal Transcendence of the Yan Family…”

“You have truly surprised me.”

“Did you know your outcome from the very beginning?”

“Yet even so,”

“you still used yourself as bait, setting a trap for me with your life.”

“What a pity.”

“Had it been someone else, perhaps they would have fallen for your ploy and perished alongside you.”

“But if it’s me…”

“Your scheme, obviously, is in vain.”

The old monk coldly chuckled, then retracted the hand that had pierced through Yan Yiqing’s heart.

He circulated the Qi-Blood Force within his body, completely drying the blood that had stained his right hand.

Then he silently turned around and left the place.

…

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

During these three days,

a piece of information that shocked countless individuals spread at a terrifying speed throughout the Da Feng Dynasty.

Even regions outside the Da Feng Dynasty

learned within these three days that the last Mortal Transcendence Realm ancestor of the Great Flame Dynasty

had perished at the hands of a Mortal Transcendence Realm old monk in White Brahma Temple three days prior.

Naturally, with the fall of the last Mortal Transcendence Realm ancestor of the Imperial Yan Family of the Great Flame Dynasty,

on that day, the vast Great Flame Dynasty

suddenly collapsed.

The Great Flame Dynasty had already been teetering on the brink.

However, because there was still an ancestor of the Mortal Transcendence Realm in the Royal Yan Family,

the dynasty, despite being in a dire state,

was still able to exist in this world.

Now, with the demise of the last Mortal Transcendence Realm ancestor of the Great Flame Dynasty,

The Great Flame Dynasty, as well as the Royal Yan Family.

had thoroughly lost the existence of cultivators of the Mortal Transcendence Realm.

And a family power or even a dynastic power without Mortal Transcendence cultivators,

its strength would often weaken rapidly within a short period.

Even to the point of complete extinction, the entire familial power vanishing from this world—this possibility was not beyond the realm of possibility.

…

Da Feng Dynasty, Luo Mountain Prefecture.

In a room within the ancestral lands of the Luo Family Clan, situated in the layers of Qingshi,

at this moment, Luo Ping—the current Patriarch of the Luo Family—was sitting quietly in the main seat.

While sipping the hot tea in his hand, he was silently flipping through the tedious government affairs in his hand.

“This one can pass.”

“This one… no, no, it cannot pass, it has to be sent back for revisions.”

“This one, well… it’s just passable, it’s approved.”

“Hmm?”

“What’s this?”

“Prohibit brothels? Prohibit gambling houses?”

At the main seat, Luo Ping looked at the government document in his hand.

Immediately, he couldn’t help but be somewhat stunned.

Prohibiting brothels and gambling houses was not a simple matter.

If this were truly enacted, it would touch upon the interests of countless people.

Prohibiting gambling houses was not impossible.

But this prohibition on brothels… wasn’t it a bit superfluous?

If brothels were banned,

where would men go to seek pleasure in the future?

Moreover, places like brothels brought in a terrifying amount of tax revenue for the Luo Family of Qingshi City every month.

If these were banned, wouldn’t all that considerable tax revenue be lost?

As Luo Ping pondered, he knitted his eyebrows slightly.

However, just when he was about to reject this government affair,

he suddenly saw something incredible further down in the document.

It was only after Luo Ping had thoroughly read through this government document

that he then revealed a faint smile, appearing quite satisfied as he nodded his head.

It turned out that the suggestion was not to completely ban brothels and gambling houses.

Instead, the idea was to make brothels and gambling houses more specialized.

In essence, in the future, anyone who wanted to open such places of pleasure like brothels and gambling houses would have to submit an application.

If the Luo Family of Qingshi City approved,

they would naturally be allowed to open for business.

If not approved, then they would be unable to operate.

If implemented in this manner, the Luo Family’s grip on tax revenue would become much clearer.

Moreover, they could crack down on illicit businesses evading taxes.

Thinking this way, it seemed rather good indeed.

Yet, while it was one thing to think this way, the problem with the matter at hand still existed.

That was, if they really wanted to implement such a policy,

the resistance from below was inevitably unavoidable.

By doing this, they would encroach upon the interests of countless people, upon the cake of many.

So, if they truly intended to carry out this policy,

they of the Luo Family in Qingshi City would need to plan and deliberate carefully.

They must proceed slowly,

much like boiling a frog in lukewarm water.

Little by little, making their move.

Were they to act brashly, there was the risk of provoking those below, which could bring about complications.

Although, at this moment,

the rule of the Luo Family over Qingshi City was incredibly firm.

Not to mention the Royal Feng Family of the Da Feng Dynasty, even the White Brahma Temple could no longer threaten their rule.

Even so, they still had to plan and deliberate further.

Otherwise, if they incited commotion among those people,

and if the territories under the Luo Family’s sway gradually fell to chaos,

the interests of the Luo Family would ultimately suffer significant losses.

In that case, it would be a loss not worth the gain.

…

In the room, after reflecting in his heart for a long while,

Luo Ping silently nodded.

He then picked up the brush,

and wrote several large characters on that document.

[This policy may pass, but we must not rush its implementation; further deliberation is necessary…]
