Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood-Chapter 902 - 438 Lu Family This Brain Trust Seat Must

Between two evils, one chooses the lesser.

In fact, even if Luo Ping were to do so, it wouldn’t mean that the Luo Family of Qingshi City feared the other clan’s influence or their pressure.

The main point was that if sacrificing an unrelated individual could lead to a better outcome,

then Luo Ping, the Current Patriarch of the Luo Family of Qingshi City, would undoubtedly make such a decision.

…

“Disaster, this is truly a disaster…”

In Qingshi City, the Inner City,

within the Lu Family Ancestral Land, which was one of the top ten elite clan forces in the Inner City,

in a bamboo courtyard that exuded a special atmosphere,

the current head of the Lu Family, Lu Sanxu, who looked quite young and seemed to be in his prime,

was furrowing his brows slightly.

With a look of mild irritation, he clasped his hands behind his back and gazed into the distance with a hint of restlessness.

In Qingshi City, the Inner City, Lu Family,

although their overall strength ranked towards the bottom among the ten top-notch families in the Inner City,

if the Lu Family could rely on their painstakingly trained and long-standing Lu-surnamed clan member who had ascended to the hundred-member Brain Trust,

the prospects for the Lu Family’s development and its future

would be incredibly bright and promising.

As the current head of one of the top ten elite clans in the Inner City of Qingshi City, he had begun to devise various plans for the development and expansion of his family just a few days ago.

However, plans always fail to keep pace with change.

The family’s development plans had not been finalized for long, nor had they started being implemented, when suddenly changes arrived.

Undercurrents surged within Qingshi City,

targeting the other members of the Brain Trust within the Current Patriarch’s chambers at the Luo Family Ancestral Land.

All of this caused the current head of the Lu Family to feel a sense of anxiety and unease.

The tasks assigned by Luo Ping, the Current Patriarch of the Luo Family,

were naturally something that a subordinate member of the Brain Trust dared not refuse.

If the task was handled well, all would be well.

But if it wasn’t handled properly…

then what would follow might be unbearable for the Lu Family, one of the top ten elite clans in the Inner City of Qingshi City.

…

In Qingshi City, there were also significant disparities among the top ten elite families.

If one observed closely, it would be seen

that the power of the top ten elite families within the Inner City of Qingshi City was generally divided into the top three families, the middle four, and the final three families.

The Yan Family, which was the first to pledge allegiance to the Luo Family of Qingshi City, and within which the patriarch’s Cultivation had already reached the Early-Phase Transcendent Realm,

“Of course, it was considered one of the top three powers among the ten elite family forces within the Inner City of Qingshi City.”

Another one, having been defeated, thus chose to take refuge with the Qingshi City Luo Family.

Although it is said that their ancestor’s cultivation had also reached the Early-Phase Transcendent Realm.

But because the spiritual power within the Inner City of Qingshi City is too dense, the cultivation environment there is too comfortable.

This has led to the gradual emergence of two families within the Inner City of Qingshi City, whose old ancestors are about to break through to the Early-Phase Transcendent Realm as well.

Time is merely a matter of sooner or later.

Therefore, those two forces, deeply rooted within the Inner City of Qingshi City,

also ranked as one of the top three among the ten elite family forces there.

The one who succumbed to defeat and sought refuge is one of the middle four families.

However, it is the strongest among those middle four.

And this, belonging to one of the elite top ten family powers in the Inner City of Qingshi City, is the Lu Family.

At best, they only just manage to rank as one of the bottom three among these top ten elite family forces.

And this, only because they reflected the prestige of that Lu family name, which had forcibly squeezed its way into the Brain Trust.

Otherwise, judging solely by the Lu Family’s current comprehensive strength,

within the Inner City of Qingshi City, there are far more than a handful of forces stronger than the Lu Family.

Moreover, this number continues to rise daily with the influx of various family forces into the Inner City of Qingshi City.

If at such a time, the Lu Family, considered one of the top ten elite family forces in Qingshi City, were to lose their sole advantage, the only seat within the Brain Trust,

then in the future, the Lu Family’s situation within the Inner City of Qingshi City,

would become increasingly difficult.

It is even possible that they may find themselves completely unable to stand their ground within the Inner City of Qingshi City and be driven out by other family forces, forced to settle in the Outer City of Qingshi City.

This is not completely without possibility.

“It seems, if we want to stabilize our current identity and status within the Inner City of Qingshi City, then the only seat of our family member in the Brain Trust must not be lost so easily,”

“At least, right now, that seat in the Brain Trust absolutely cannot be lost.”

In Qingshi City, within the Inner City, on the Lu Family ancestral land.

In a small courtyard filled with lush green bamboo,

Lu Sanxu, the Current Patriarch of the Lu Family, one of the top ten elite families in the Inner City of Qingshi City, was silently contemplating this in his heart.

Afterward, he resolutely made a decision in his heart,

and quietly stepped outside the courtyard.

…

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

Early morning, the sky had not yet brightened completely, and the temperature still felt a bit chilly.

Within Qingshi City, countless citizens were still not awake,

while outside Qingshi City, many wishing to enter what was touted as the magical Mortal Paradise of the Inner City, had already quietly formed long queues at the city gates.

“Captain, why have so many unfamiliar faces suddenly appeared on the city wall today?”

“Those people… where did they all come from?”

“Do you know, Captain?”

Atop the city wall of Qingshi City,

a soldier clad in iron armor stood silently, observing the sudden influx of strangers from God knows where.

In his eyes flashed a hint of puzzlement.

The middle-aged man next to him, who could be considered the captain of a ten-man squad,

was squinting his eyes,

calmly watching those figures that had suddenly appeared.

After pondering for a moment, he said in a low voice to his brother-in-arms, “Those people are probably from the Lu Family who ran out from the Inner City of Qingshi City…”

Upon hearing this, the soldier asked in surprise, “The Lu Family? Could it be the same Lu Family that’s one of the top ten elite forces in the Inner City of Qingshi City?”

The middle-aged captain silently nodded.
