Chapter 544: Chapter 260 The Carefree Monk Returns_1
Indeed.
As he turned his head,
the youngster Luo Yao, who was sitting quietly beside him and being groomed as the Luo Family’s next Family Head,
was holding a document of state affairs in his hands at this very moment.
His brows were slightly furrowed.
His gaze bore a look of serious contemplation.
Seeing this, Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family, couldn’t help feeling even more pleased.
Not bad, not bad at all.
Quite impressive indeed.
Perhaps, the old Luo Yao might have been engrossed in idleness and slacking off,
but the Luo Yao now was no longer the same as before.
He had changed.
He had made a transformation.
He was gradually showing the qualities of the Luo Family’s next Family Head.
With things looking like this,
perhaps, in just three to five years,
he could start to delegate authority, gradually transfer power into Luo Yao’s hands.
In no more than ten years, he could completely relinquish his position as the current Family Head of the Luo Family to Luo Yao.
And he, the former Family Head of the Luo Family, could spend his days leisurely drinking tea,
enjoy the peacefulness of life,
and perhaps occasionally enjoy some music and entertainment.
Wouldn’t that be delightful?
“Not bad, not bad…”
Without realizing, Luo Ping murmured under his breath,
and then slowly withdrew his gaze,
turning his attention to the state affair documents laid out on the table.
In recent days, there had been little time and much to do.
He should quickly finish what needed to be done,
and then he could do what he wanted.
After all, being the current Family Head of the Luo Family
often left him feeling out of control.
It wasn’t as if, just because you were the current Family Head of the Luo Family, you could do whatever you wanted.
…
As Luo Ping redirected his gaze,
approximately three or five minutes later,
Luo Yao, seated beside Luo Ping,
only then quietly shifted his gaze from the document in his hands to the Family Head Luo Ping beside him.
Only when he was sure
that the Family Head was no longer paying attention to him,
did Luo Yao, who was being groomed as the next Family Head of the Luo Family, let out a sigh of relief.
The tension in his heart also dissipated significantly.
To tell the truth, he was well aware that
his façade was flawless.
However, being constantly observed by Family Head Luo Ping
inevitably made him feel nervous and uneasy.
It was as if he feared that the Family Head would come up with some new tricky challenge.
“Great Moon Dynasty…”
“Great Flame Dynasty…”
“And that Bai Hua Pavilion, which has run off to who knows where…”
“Given such circumstances, one truly cannot help but lament the unpredictability of life…”
He shook his head,
pondering silently to himself.
Afterward, Luo Yao finally turned his attention back to the document in his hands.
Slacking off and being idle were essential.
After all, if someone doesn’t slack off at work,
life would lose its meaning.
However, being idle did not mean that he would neglect all tasks.
Those state affairs still required his attention.
What he needed to do next
was to find the right balance.
He needed to let Luo Ping, who was sitting beside him as the current Family Head of the Luo Family, know
that he was indeed handling the state affairs very seriously
and that he spent the majority of his time on these matters.
Only by letting Luo Ping recognize these two facts,
could his life in the future become somewhat easier.
…
Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family,
had learned about the events concerning the Great Flame Dynasty and the Great Moon Dynasty.
Thus,
Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family,
naturally knew about the issues concerning the Great Moon Dynasty and the Great Flame Dynasty ahead of Luo Ping, the current Family Head of the Luo Family.
In Qingshi City, on the Luo Family Ancestral Land,
within a courtyard that continually exuded an air of antiquity and mystery,
Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Luo Family, was presently sitting under a stone pavilion built of simple bluestone,
sipping the cold tea in his hand while silently gazing into the distance.
“The Great Moon Dynasty has fallen.”
“The Great Flame Dynasty emerged as the final victor.”
“This turn of events, although somewhat surprising,”
“seems quite rational upon closer consideration.”
“After all, even though the Great Flame Dynasty lost one of their two Ancestors, Ancestor Yan,”
“the foundation of the Great Flame Dynasty still remains.”
“An old ancestor has died, but there remains another known as the Sword Ancestor.”
“Moreover, that Sword Ancestor seems to be much stronger than Ancestor Yan, one of the two Ancestors of the Great Flame Dynasty.”
“Thus, if the Sword Ancestor of the Great Flame Dynasty were to take action,”
“the defeat of the Great Moon Dynasty and the success of the Great Flame Dynasty.”
“would seem to become an inevitable reality.”
“However, with the fall of the Great Moon Dynasty and the Great Flame Dynasty emerging as the last winner,”
“the strength of the Great Flame Dynasty will surely swell rapidly in a short period.”
“And by that time, the internal and external turmoil of the Great Flame Dynasty will likely vanish completely.”
“The Great Flame Dynasty will probably regain and even surpass its strength from its peak period.”
Luo Changfeng sat under the stone pavilion,
pondering these thoughts in his heart.
Of course, this refers to overall strength.
If one considers the top combat power,
it is undeniable that there has been a decline in the strength of the Great Flame Dynasty.
