Chapter 381 - 178: The Mysterious White Brahma Force? The Most Unsolvable Overt Plot!_3

"If I agreed with just one sentence, then it would be a sign I had lost,"

As a man of note, and one who was even situated near the Emperor’s side, a favored one at that.

His own abilities and other aspects might be lacking in some areas,

but his judgment was absolutely something that could not falter.

At times like these, when his own master was already so angered, burning with such fury,

as a servant, it would naturally be best for him to refrain from speaking rashly.

Only after his master’s anger had sufficiently subsided,

would it be time for him to speak.

"The lands of Qingcheng Prefecture, whether by area or in terms of resources, rank within the top three, even the top two of the entire Da Feng Dynasty,"

"By logic, the armored elites under the Luo Family’s command should have taken the most territory and resources in the shortest time possible after being stationed in Qingcheng Prefecture."

"That is precisely what my dear second brother, Feng Wuhen, has been doing."

"And yet, why has the Luo Family done this?"

"Why must they fixate on me?"

"Even to the extent of forsaking the benefits before them, just to merely stall my time…"

After a roar,

The New Emperor Feng Wumian gradually regained his calm.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

He murmured softly to himself.

Within those narrowed eyes, countless thoughts flickered ceaselessly.

At this moment, he was pondering,

what exactly could be the reason behind the Luo Family, who controlled three prefectures, taking such action.

Without any reason, merely wishing to delay him?

This was a claim Feng Wumian would not believe.

The Luo Family’s ability to rise from a minor family to its current stature in a very short time

clearly indicated the capabilities of the Luo Family’s leader.

And now, the Luo Family had made some perplexing moves.

There had to be a reason behind them.

"Could it be…"

Sitting in his main seat, as Feng Wumian pondered, a possibility suddenly flashed through his mind.

The reason the Luo Family, which held three prefectures, was willing to pay any price to stall his progress,

Could it be to favor Feng Wuhen’s side?

Even though Feng Wumian found it somewhat hard to believe, it seemed that this was the only explanation that made sense at present.

"So, does the Luo Family want to use the temptation of the imperial throne to lure my second brother, to perpetually stand against me?"

"That’s right, that’s right, it seems that way..."

Above the main seat, Feng Wumian continued to murmur softly to himself.

On his face, a trace of helplessness gradually emerged.

It must be said, the Luo Family seemed to have succeeded.

Everything transpired just as they had anticipated.

Feng Wumian’s side was draggèd down by the Luo Family,

while Feng Wuhen was rapidly seizing territory within Qingcheng Prefecture.

Everything was under the control of the Luo Family. Your next read is at empire

Even if Feng Wumian had a chance to seize a few cities within Qingcheng Prefecture, it seemed unlikely to change the overall situation.

With the Luo Family’s armored elite closely watching,

how could Feng Wumian possibly have the opportunity to broadly take over territory and resources in Qingcheng Prefecture?

"Luo Family, ah Lu Family..."

"You really have some nerve!!!"

After a bitter smile and shaking his head,

Feng Wumian stood up and started walking silently towards the outside of the hall.

The stratagems being carried out by the Luo Family were blatant and out in the open.

And such overt stratagems are precisely the hardest to counter.

Even if Feng Wumian, as well as Feng Wuhen, knew of the Luo Family’s schemes,

what could they do?

Under the watchful eye of the Luo Family, Feng Wumian’s side naturally couldn’t freely seize territory and resources within Qingcheng Prefecture.

And as for Feng Wuhen’s side, even if they were aware of the Luo Family’s inner calculations,

in the face of absolute benefits,

they would still follow the path set by the Luo Family, Step by step, moving relentlessly forward.
