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

Luo Mountain Prefecture, Qingshi City, Luo Family Ancestral Land.

In a small courtyard exuding waves of ancient and mysterious aura.

Beneath a simple stone pavilion constructed of bluestone.

Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family, was sitting silently on a stone bench at this moment.

Cradling in his hand the tea that was still emitting steams of heat.

While silently gazing in a certain direction.

"Just cut him off like that?"

After scanning through Luo Ping's room with his divine consciousness.

Luo Changfeng's eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.

A flicker of surprise flashed through his squinted eyes.

He hadn't expected Luo Ping, that youngster, to be so decisive.

He had thought that at the very least, Luo Ping would haggle a few rounds with the envoy from the Great Flame Dynasty.

Even if he disagreed,

he wouldn't express it so readily.

But unexpectedly...

As thoughts crossed his mind, Luo Changfeng couldn't help laughing and shaking his head.

It seemed to be better this way, after all.

At least, it would spare them a lot of trouble.

Though at the same time, it would add quite a bit of trouble as well.

"Great Flame Dynasty..."

"Five Elements Immortal Sect..."

"Tsk, it looks like the matters ahead are going to become increasingly complex."

"And this Mortal Transcendence Initial Stage of cultivation seems to be somewhat insufficient."

Beneath the stone pavilion.

Luo Changfeng was sipping the tea in his hand while musing to himself in his heart.

...

In the blinking of an eye, three months had passed.

During these three months,

the Great Flame Dynasty was continuously involving itself in various matters within the Da Feng Dynasty.

Even within the Da Feng Dynasty,

they had found an ally, a partner for themselves.

But instead of calling it an ally or a partner,

it would be more apt to say that the Great Flame Dynasty had found a loyal dog willing to obey their commands.

Indeed, it was the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family.

As to why it was described this way,

the reason was that the conditions proposed by the Great Flame Dynasty were a bit too harsh.

Even if, in the end, the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family came out smiling with the Great Flame Dynasty,

and the vast territory of the Da Feng Dynasty was really seized by them,

the Ke Family would probably not reap much benefit in the end.

The only thing that could be considered good news was that after borrowing the strength of the Great Flame Dynasty,

the Ke Family seemed to now have the qualifications to continue their existence on this land.

And they also gained the ability to stand firm against the Xu Family of Wan Shan Prefecture and Luo Family behind them.

As for the White Brahma Temple near the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family?

This was certainly a big trouble.

However, the Five Elements Immortal Sect behind the Great Flame Dynasty was not vegetarian either.

If they could cling to the tiger's skin of the Five Elements Immortal Sect,

the Ke Family would not need to be too fearful of the White Brahma Temple inside the White Lotus Prefecture.

...

Da Feng Dynasty, Xunyang Prefecture, Ke Family Clan Land.

With the capital to continue surviving,

the originally oppressive and heavy atmosphere within the vast Ke Family Clan Land had slowly dissipated.

Among the Ke Family members who were constantly coming and going within the clan land,

smiles could occasionally be glimpsed on their faces.

Even Ke Xiaowen, the current Family Head of the Ke Family, seemed much clearer and less lost in recent times.

"How is the situation now?"

In the room where the Ke Family Head resided within the Ke Family Clan Land,

Ke Xiaowen, the present Family Head of the Ke Family, was sitting quietly in his main seat.

He was flipping through a piece of information in front of him while inquiring in a low voice about the current state of the Da Feng Dynasty to the person in front of him.

"Family Head, the military support promised by the Great Flame Dynasty is steadily arriving."

"However, if we were to rely on these resources alone, taking control of the Wan Shan Prefecture seems difficult..."

In the dimly-lit room,

a middle-aged man dressed in black standing quietly spoke in low tones.

"As expected..."

Ke Xiaowen nodded and then promptly added, "Though the Great Flame Dynasty's terms are harsh, they indeed lent their support to our Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family. On the other hand, that New Emperor Feng Wumian speaks of cooperation with our Ke Family, yet I see no sincerity from Feng Wumian..."

The man in black slightly bowed his head.

After pondering for a moment, he then said, "Family Head, besides the assistance in resources, the Great Flame Dynasty has also offered military support.

They claim that if our Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family is willing to accept it, they are confident that within half a year, they can capture the lands of Wan Shan Prefecture and thereafter, they will directly attack Luo Mountain Prefecture Luo Family. They even said that within three years, they'll push through the Luo Family..."

...

The words of the man in black echoed slowly in the room.

Having said his piece, the man in black finally lowered his head completely.

It appeared he was awaiting a response from the family head of his house.

And Ke Xiaowen, seated in the main seat,

couldn't help but slightly furrow his brows at this moment.

Assistance with resources was one thing,

but if they were to open up the defenses along the borders,

allowing the Great Flame Dynasty's armies to come in...

Would the three prefectures under his Ke Family's command,

truly belong to the Ke Family or to the Great Flame Dynasty?

In the beginning, the Great Flame Dynasty might, for various reasons, not completely fall out with the Ke Family.

But as time passed and the Great Flame Dynasty gradually infiltrated and even took over control of the lands of the three prefectures under the Ke Family,
