Chapter 157: Chapter 104: The Luo Family’s Situation is Booming, Reform of the Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect?_2
Aside from the events a few days ago, the waters of Huai Shui have completely dried up.

This has caused many family forces within Huai Shui County to feel some panic and unease.

Beyond that, there have been no other significant events.

“How is the situation now?”

In a room at the Luo Family Ancestral Land in Qingshi Town, where the Luo Family Patriarch resides.

At this moment, Luo Ping was sitting calmly in the principal seat.

He was handling the affairs in his hands and asked Hu Min in a low voice before him.

Yes, the person standing before Luo Ping was Hu Min, the former Young Master of the Hu Family.

Since Hu Min’s abilities had grown increasingly outstanding and eye-catching,

and furthermore, since Luo Chuan had brought Hu Min to Luo Ping’s notice,

reporting work-related information had often fallen upon this young man, Hu Min.

As for Luo Chuan?

At this time, he should be studying his career as a “Formation Master.”

Of course, if there were important matters to deal with,

Luo Chuan would also help out a bit.

After all, who made him the Young Master of the Luo Family?

There are some matters, some responsibilities, that Luo Chuan cannot escape from.

…

Inside the room, Hu Min heard Luo Ping’s voice.

He slightly lowered his head and bent his waist a bit.

His face showed a touch of reverence.

Then, he replied, “In the past half a month, Huai Shui has already dried up completely, the climate is gradually becoming more and more arid, water resources within Huai Shui County are increasingly scarce, and even… some of the crops in parts of the farmlands are beginning to show signs of withering.”

Of course, the situation Hu Min described was not that of the Luo Family in Qingshi Town.

It was the situation of the Tang Family, the Chen Family, and the King of Huai Shui’s forces.

These three forces had not been without countermeasures.

Many deep wells had been dug by the various forces.

But in such sweltering weather, no matter how many deep wells were dug, how long could they last?

Three to five days? Around ten days? Or half a month?

In such dry weather, the need for water resources for crops to maintain fast and healthy growth is often much greater than the normal demand.

So, no matter how many deep wells are dug,

it can often not solve the problem of water scarcity.

“What about the farmlands opened up outside Qingshi Town?”

“How are those crops growing?”

After Luo Ping nodded silently, he asked Hu Min again in a low voice.

“The situation is very good,”

With his head still slightly bowed, Hu Min responded, “It seems that due to the abundance of water resources and suitable climate, the crops are growing faster than expected. In at most another month, we will be able to carry out the first grain harvest of the year…”

Hearing this, Luo Ping slowly lifted his head.

Looking at the familiar, yet somewhat strange Hu Min before him,

his expression inevitably became complicated.

Familiarity came from the time when the Luo Family was still weak, and Hu Min, along with his father Hu Da, once sought connections with the Luo Family.

At that time, Hu Min was just like a profligate scion.

It extremely displeased Luo Ping’s heart.

The strangeness was because he had not expected that Hu Min could have changed so dramatically in such a short time.

“How is the Hu Family now?”

“Does the Hu Family know your current situation?”

Looking at Hu Min before him, after a moment, Luo Ping inquired.

Hu Min silently shook his head, with a hint of bitterness at the corners of his mouth: “Ever since I was replaced as the Young Master, Hu Da has never looked me in the eye, perhaps he has already forgotten that there is such a person as me…”

After pondering for a while, Luo Ping asked again, “Do you have any plans for the future?”

“Do you wish to continue staying in Qingshi Town, assisting Xiao Chuan with administrative duties, or say…”

As he spoke, Luo Ping’s eyes slightly narrowed.

Within those narrowed eyes, a cold look flashed briefly.

It seemed as if he was offering Hu Min different choices.

But in reality, Hu Min, the former Young Master of the Hu Family, never had the right to choose.

The Luo Family does not need disobedient dogs.

“I am at the Patriarch’s disposal…”

Kneeling on both knees, Hu Min always kept his head bowed.

“Since that’s the case, then you may follow by Xiao Chuan’s side! Now, you may leave…”

Without giving it another thought, Luo Ping waved his hand silently, then paid no more attention to the person before him.

Seeing this, Hu Min, quite appropriately, stood up.

He walked silently towards the outside of the room.

…

In Qingshi Town, at the Luo Family Ancestral Land,

In the courtyard of the Ancestor of the Luo Family.

At this time, Luo Changfeng was sitting quietly under a Stone Pavilion.

Opposite him, sat silently the current Sect Master of the Wan Dan Sect’s Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect, Fu Qiu.

“Old Brother Luo, in the recent half-month, the targeting of our Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect by other prefectural sub-sects within the Da Feng Dynasty has become increasingly obvious…”

“Not to mention anything else, just our core alchemists in the Luoshan Prefecture Sub-sect who can refine supreme-grade elixirs of common quality,”

“have been forcibly taken away by sub-sects of other prefectures, three of them,”

“and at least ten alchemists capable of refining levels above the common quality have been lured away.”

“If this continues, I’m afraid it won’t be long before our sub-sect here in Luoshan Prefecture will be left with nothing but an empty shell…”

Fu Qiu at this time was wearing a troubled expression.

His demeanor seemed somewhat helpless as he complained in a low voice to Luo Changfeng before him.

“Three core alchemists were taken away in just half a month?”

Upon hearing this, Luo Changfeng’s brow also furrowed slightly.
