Chapter 154: Chapter 103: Crisis Averted, The Chen Family’s Ancestor?_2
“`
“With this, it should be about right…”
After watching the rain for approximately three to five minutes, Luo Changfeng waved his hand and retracted the Rain Seeking Talisman in the air.
Although the duration of the rain was not long,
it still caught the attention of many common folks residing outside Qingshi Town, on the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
At first, the people thought the heavens were being generous,
graciously bringing rain amidst the exceedingly dry weather.
What surprised the commoners, however…
was that the rain’s range was confined solely to the Luo Family Clan’s land.
Additionally, the rainfall didn’t last for a long period of time.
Thus, amidst this miraculous sight,
the commoners immersed in the mundanity of life could only attribute this remarkable phenomenon to the Luo Family.
The Luo Family, a clan of cultivators.
With seven towns in their grasp, millions of commoners under their command, and an army of tens to hundreds of thousands.
It was said that the Ancestor of the Luo Family had achieved the Viscera Refinement realm.
So, was it any wonder that such wondrous events transpired within the Luo Family Ancestral Land?
…
In the blink of an eye,
three days had passed.
Qingshi Town, Luo Family Ancestral Land.
In the courtyard where Luo Changfeng was,
Elder Changfeng of the Luo Family was sitting silently beneath a Stone Pavilion.
In his hands, he cradled a ceramic teacup.
His eyes slightly narrowed, he continued to sip the tea in his hands.
“Patriarch Changfeng…”
Outside the courtyard, Luo Ping silently walked towards the direction of the Stone Pavilion.
At this moment, Luo Ping was still somewhat unclear.
He wondered what methods his family’s elder would use to solve the problems of locusts, water scarcity, and the scorching heat.
“Oh? You’ve arrived?”
Luo Changfeng glanced at Luo Ping by his side.
He then finished his tea in one gulp,
waved his hand, and took out a thick stack of talismans from his Storage Bag.
Luo Ping, seeing the large stack of talismans, did not count them in detail,
but a cursory look revealed that
the stack contained at least three to four thousand talismans.
“Cooling Charms, Rain Seeking Talismans, Locust Removal Talismans, a total of six thousand,”
“two thousand of each kind.”
“You should be familiar with the Cooling Charm…
“The reason the Luo Family Clan’s territory has been cooler than the surroundings recently is mainly due to the effects of the Cooling Charm.”
“As for the Rain Seeking Talisman, once activated, it will cause rain to fall.
“The volume and range of rainfall can be freely designated.”
“As for the Locust Removal Talisman, it should be more or less the same.”
Having said that, Luo Changfeng directly passed the six thousand talismans to Luo Ping standing before him.
As the Current Patriarch of the Luo Family,
Luo Ping could only take them with both hands.
Such a thick stack of talismans was difficult to stuff into the sleeves.
Without a Storage Bag or Storage Ring,
carrying things became somewhat troublesome.
…
Shortly thereafter, Luo Yong left with the large stack of talismans.
Located within the courtyard, still beneath the Stone Pavilion, Luo Changfeng
was now silently drinking the cold tea in his hands.
Making talismans like the Rain Seeking Talisman, Cooling Charm, and the Locust Removal Talisman was fairly straightforward.
At least, they were much simpler than defensive or offensive talismans.
It’s just that manufacturing six thousand in three days could be quite tiring on the hands.
“With these talismans, the issue of food supply should not be a major one.
“Wondering how far these young ones, Luo Ping, Luo Yong, and Luo Chuan, with their capabilities,
“will be able to take the Luo Family?”
At this moment, Luo Changfeng couldn’t help but feel curious.
Sometimes he even felt
as if he were playing a simulation game called ‘Ancestor Management.’
He remained seated at the heart of the family,
then, from a high position,
just watched quietly as the family grew and expanded.
Of course, if the family members encountered any issues,
he would step in to deal with it in a minimal fashion.
If there were any problems with the family’s power,
he would also lend a minimal helping hand.
The gist of it was something like that.
…
Noon.
As the burning sun hung high above everyone’s heads,
beside the ploughed fields of Qingshi Town,
Luo Chuan, who was the Young Master of the Luo Family, was holding a talisman known as a Cooling Charm, looking at it quietly.
“Can this thing truly be effective?”
Luo Chuan stared at what was in his hand…
Oh, no.
To be precise, what should be called a talisman.
He couldn’t help but harbor some doubts.
Luo Chuan knew that these talismans were crafted by none other than Patriarch Changfeng himself; he wasn’t questioning the capabilities of his family’s patriarch.
The main thing was, just by activating the talisman in his hand,
the issue of the scorching weather would be resolved, bringing temperatures back down to normal.
This seemed unbelievable to Luo Chuan.
Nevertheless, although hard to believe,
he knew it was necessary to put it to the test.
…
So Luo Chuan activated his Qi-Blood Force within,
and set off the Cooling Charm in his hand.
As the Cooling Charm rose above Luo Chuan’s head,
it began to operate fervently,
absorbing the nearby heat energy in a frenzy.
Since Luo Chuan had set a rather small range and a somewhat lower temperature,
it only took a few breaths of time
for him to distinctly feel the temperature around him rapidly dropping.
After a few more breaths, Luo Chuan could clearly feel
