"Great Elder, how should we deal with Luo Shuixian, an unscrupulous descendant who eats both inside and outside? Should we just let her go?"
"Let her go? Huh! If we really let her go, wouldn't it be too easy on her? Punish her severely, you must punish her severely!"
"That's right, this kind of thing must not be allowed to happen. If her case happens, how will our Luo family survive in the future?"
"I support severe punishment."
"Everyone, listen to me, have you forgotten the head of the family? Don't forget, no matter how shameless she is, she is also——"
…
In the extremely luxurious Luo family meeting hall, all the Luo family elders gathered together. They continue to speak out and express their opinions.
Gathered here today, they only have one thing to talk about. That is how to deal with Luo Shuixian.
Originally...many of them actually supported Luo Shuixian and Gu Qingyang's affairs, but Gu Qingyang's reputation was really scary.
Especially in the later years.
In a few years, Gu Qingyang had offended most of the human race's Dao Tuan, and the conflicts he had formed were all related to life and death.
This caused those who supported this matter to change their minds. In their hearts, the development and survival of the family was the most important thing.
In this way, they think about the same things as the elders of other factions.
But even so, these people still hold on to the idea of punishing Luo Narcissus a little.
They did not support strict punishment of Luo Shuixian.
In their opinion, if the punishment was really too excessive, it would definitely trigger a full-scale counterattack by the forces behind Luo Shuixian.
And this power comes from two parties, one of which is the power of the family leader Luo Hongchen. The other side originated from ancient Qingyang.
For people in the outside world, not many people know what the relationship between Luo Shuixian and Gu Qingyang is.
Even those who had witnessed the past events of Luo Narcissus and Gu Qingyang in the past would only think that those events happened at that time.
People are going to change.
The passage of time is the true reason why people change themselves. No one can easily ignore this factor.
Most of the witnesses to the events in the past were people from Shenlu Academy, who had not seen Gu Qingyang and Luo Shuixian for many years.
As a result, they dare not speak nonsense.
However, if people outside don't know this kind of thing, how can the elders of the Luo family not know it? They knew very well what Luo Shuixian was thinking.
Originally... it was normal for Luo Shuixian to take a liking to young talents like Gu Qingyang, and some of them also supported him.
After all, Gu Qingyang himself was extremely extraordinary.
But none of them thought that Gu Qingyang could be so extraordinary! Enemy to the entire world, enemy to the entire human race!
It’s such a grand gesture, and it’s so courageous to swallow mountains and rivers! It would be great if their family could live alone, then they could still keep their eyes open.
But driven by God's will, the Luo family was also dragged into such a battle.
As a result, there are really few elders in the entire Luo family who still support this matter.
No one in the Luo family would think that their Luo family could already be the enemy of the entire human race.
Furthermore, Luo Narcissus itself is an extremely good bargaining chip.
Although Luo Shuixian's efforts in business have indeed brought considerable benefits to the family.
But some of them still prefer to make the best use of it, and want to make more use of Luo Narixian before it completely loses its value.
And this kind of people are often the ones who did not support Luo Shuixian and Gu Qingyang from the beginning. In their view, Luo Shuixian was wrong from the beginning.
Treason!
These four words are their evaluation of Luo Shuixian, their perception of her, and it is an undoubted prejudice.
Originally, the Luo family was indeed going to carry out the final punishment on Luo Narcissus. They were just discussing whether to kill her or marry her.
But at that critical moment, the war ended. Before their Luo family had to pay too much loss, the entire human race had already been defeated.
It is said that God’s will has already taken action——
But Tiandu didn't win, and even the sixteen-level warriors from the human race didn't win. After hearing the news, all the Luo family elders were almost stunned.
Of course they don't want to believe it, and they never think that such a thing can be true. But that's the fact.
Whether they want to admit it or not.
What was supposed to happen had happened, and they had to admit that because of Gu Qingyang, they had to re-examine Luo Shuixian.
kill?
Most of them cannot be killed. If Gu Qingyang really cared about Luo Shuixian and they killed him in a rage, what would the Luo family endure?
marry?
Of course they know that marrying is actually a more serious matter than killing. Again, if Gu Qingyang really cares about Luo Shuixian——
Whenever someone among the elders thinks of this, those who think of this step will shudder. This is really a terrible thing.
"You only considered the head of the family, didn't you consider the boy?"
"What would happen if that boy really cared about our Luo Yatou?"
…
As soon as these words came out, the whole place instantly became extremely silent. Many of the elders who were talking stopped talking. Their faces turned red and they were at a loss.
Finally someone raised this issue.
But what should they do?
consider? How else could they think about it?
It's not like they didn't know Gu Qingyang's combat prowess.
Nine realms kill sixteen realms!
Although they didn't know how Gu Qingyang did it, they were convinced that if Gu Qingyang was really desperate.
Want to destroy the Luo family?
For that poor boy who was looked down upon by them in the past, it was just a matter of a few clicks. Although the Luo family is strong, there are no strong men from the Sixteenth Realm sitting in command.
Moreover, Gu Qingyang proclaimed himself emperor as soon as he came up, saying that he would be the emperor of the entire wild world. However, the orcs also showed their full support.
They are silent precisely because they have considered all factors. No matter what their attitude was towards Gu Qingyang before this.
After this, they all must come up with a new attitude to look at Gu Qingyang and face Gu Qingyang.
Otherwise, they would not dare to imagine it.
"Don't worry, everyone, I have discussed it with the head of the family. I have sent an envoy to the East China Sea in an extremely secretive way."
"Now, I want to ask you something."
"Do you have enough ambition to support you in carrying forward the Luo family's business methods and letting the Luo family do business in the entire wild world?"
…
As an elder suddenly spoke up, everyone's eyes focused on him. That was Luo Shi, the tenth elder of the Luo family.
His name is simple, but his character and methods are the least simple among the elders. In the Luo family, no one dares to look down upon him, including the great elder.
At this moment, all the elders were even more shocked when they heard what he said.
None of them expected that Luo Shi, the tenth elder, would actually help Luo Shuixian.
However, the ideas proposed by Luo Shi did inspire the ambitions of some of them.
yes--
Why does the Luo family have to only do human business? The wild world in the future will inevitably become more chaotic, but after chaos comes prosperity.
Their reason tells them that if they want the Luo family to exist for a long time, it is better to go with the flow.
As for Luo Shuixian, they can keep her.
Provide them with good food and drink, and take good care of them.
If one day Gu Qingyang really wins the final victory, they can still use her as the last bargaining chip to allow the Luo family to survive.
Even... they can use her as a certificate to hand the Luo family into her hands and let the Luo family truly flourish.
Doing this means not putting all your eggs in the same basket. No matter what, the Luo family can continue to exist and have a chance to thrive.
But correspondingly, survival has become easier, but rising has become difficult.
Just because Tiandao has gathered many great orthodoxy, the Luo family is just a fat piece of meat to those orthodox lines.
Even if they go with the flow, it will be difficult for the Luo family to protect themselves. Because the Luo family has not received much favor from heaven.
Without a certain level of strength as a guarantee, the Luo family would just choose to go with the flow, which would most likely end up sending the sheep into the tiger's mouth.
In comparison, if Gu Qingyang wins.
If the Luo family really falls into the hands of Luo Shuixian, will it still be the original Luo family? Considering Luo Shuixian's nature, she probably only cares about Gu Qingyang, right?
certainly--
If they were really extreme, as Luo Shi said, they would really be willing to risk everything and only choose Gu Qingyang. If Gu Qingyang succeeds, the Luo family will surely rise!
But correspondingly, if Gu Qingyang fails, their Luo family will inevitably disappear completely. There is no way around it.
High risk, high reward.
Business people, how could they not understand this? But... at the end of the day, how do they choose?
Should we just keep waiting like this? Many elders fell silent and fell into a dilemma for a while.
At this moment, a curtain of light suddenly appeared:
"The master's handwriting——"
"The Elders' Meeting is suspended until the messenger brings back the news and we will find another time to hold it. The Luo Family is closed, and all Tianshui Trading Firms must keep a low profile."
"This is a troubled time. No one in the Luo family can cause trouble. Anyone who is harmful to the Luo family will be killed."
"Luo Shuixian is an important person."
"Anyone who wants to do harm to Luo Shuixian will be killed without mercy! If the family rules cannot control it, a certain young talent named Gu is willing to do it for him."
…
Many elders looked on.
They looked happy at first, thinking that their family leader was still sensible. But then, their faces became paler and paler.
"Snapped!"
Finally, one of the elders couldn't bear it anymore. He stood up and slammed the table. However, what greeted him was Luo Shi's cold eyes.
"Squint!"
Luo Shi had no intention of getting used to this fellow member. He snorted coldly, released his cultivation aura, and suppressed everyone present with the strength of the fifteenth realm.
Everyone's expression changed, but they could only choose to remain silent.
