Chapter 643 The Destruction of the White Crane City Lord's Mansion! _2
Today, being able to witness him in action is indeed a rare opportunity for learning for Luo Xuan.
The descendants of the Luo Family branch who saw Luo Qianqiu take action were filled with respect and pride.
They knew that with such a strong figure as Luo Qianqiu overseeing things, the future of the Luo Family branch would be even brighter.
However, just as everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, Luo Xuan suddenly spoke: "Although Elder Luo Qianqiu's action has resolved the immediate crisis, we cannot let down our guard because of it."
"Although Li Hao is dead, and the people from the City Lord's Mansion have retreated, they will certainly not let this rest."
"We must prepare for their next attack."
Luo Xuan's words awakened everyone from their joy, and they all nodded in agreement.
As one of the outstanding figures of the Luo Family branch, Luo Xuan's words held weight in the hearts of the people.
Luo Qianqiu also nodded in agreement, saying, "Luo Xuan is right, we must not be complacent because of a momentary victory. Even though the people from the City Lord's Mansion have retreated, their strength is still formidable. We must prepare for their next attack."
Under the leadership of Luo Qianqiu and Luo Xuan, the Luo Family branch began preparations to counter the next attack from the City Lord's Mansion.
They strengthened the defensive constructions around their base, increased the training intensity for the disciples, and sent out personnel to gather intelligence on the City Lord's Mansion.
After a period of preparation, the strength of the Luo Family branch had been greatly enhanced.
Not only did they repair buildings and facilities previously damaged by the City Lord's Mansion, but also recruited a batch of new disciples.
These newly joined disciples, although still weak, were filled with fighting spirit and determination, willing to fight for the honor and interests of the Luo Family branch.
During this time, the people from the City Lord's Mansion were not idle.
Although they were defeated by the Luo Family branch, they did not abandon their oppression of the Luo Family branch.
They continued to send personnel to harass and attack the base and disciples of the Luo Family branch, attempting to weaken their strength and morale.
However, under the leadership of Luo Qianqiu and Luo Xuan, the disciples of the Luo Family branch, with steadfast belief and tenacious fighting spirit, successfully repelled the multiple attacks of the City Lord's Mansion.
Not only did they secure the safety of their base and disciples, but they also counterattacked the forces of the City Lord's Mansion several times, achieving considerable victories.
As time passed, the reputation of the Luo Family branch began to spread in neighboring areas.
With their strength and courage, they successfully repelled multiple attacks by the City Lord's Mansion, earning people's respect and acclaim.
More and more people began to join the ranks of the Luo Family branch, contributing their strength to its prosperity and development.
...
White Crane City, within the ancestral land of the Luo Family branch.
Luo Xuan sat in an elegant study, with a map of White Crane City spread out before him.
His fingers gently slid over the map, as if planning a blueprint for the future.
Since Elder Luo Qianqiu defeated the experts of the City Lord's Mansion, the prestige of the Luo Family branch had reached unprecedented heights, with countless aspirants flocking to join, injecting new vitality into the branch.
Luo Xuan knew that this was just the beginning.
Though the City Lord's Mansion had temporarily retreated, their strength was still formidable.
If the Luo Family branch truly wanted to establish themselves in White Crane City, and potentially contend with the City Lord's Mansion in the future, they must continue to strengthen their own power.
He raised his head, gazing out the window. Sunlight poured through onto the desk, casting a golden hue.
Luo Xuan's eyes gleamed with resolve; he knew that the burden on his shoulders was heavy.
But he also believed that as long as everyone worked together, the Luo Family branch would certainly welcome an even more glorious future.
Just then, a rush of footsteps came from outside the study.
Luo Xuan pulled back his thoughts and looked toward the doorway. There, a young disciple hurriedly ran in, gasping for breath, exclaiming, "Young Master Xuan, there's trouble! People from the City Lord's Mansion have come to attack again!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Xuan furrowed his brows. He stood up, asking in a deep voice, "How many have come? What is the situation now?"
The young disciple replied, "Several hundred have come, all very strong. Our people are resisting with all their might, but the situation is very critical!"
Luo Xuan nodded, saying, "Alright, I understand. You may go now, and tell everyone that I will personally go to handle it."
With that, he turned and headed out of the study.
He knew that this attack by the City Lord's Mansion was a serious matter and that he must personally confront it.
Outside the Luo Family branch's base, the fires of battle were raging.
Hundreds of experts from the City Lord's Mansion charged forward, wielding weapons, showing overwhelming momentum.
Although the disciples of the Luo Family branch fought valiantly, the disadvantage in both numbers and strength gradually pushed them into a bitter struggle.
Luo Xuan led a group of elite disciples as they charged out, like a fierce wind sweeping across the battlefield.
With a mere sway of his longsword, several experts from the City Lord's Mansion fell into pools of blood.
His appearance greatly boosted the morale of the Luo Family branch's disciples, inspiring them to fearlessly fight the experts from the City Lord's Mansion in fierce combat.
However, the experts from the City Lord's Mansion were not to be underestimated.
Among them were formidable individuals who joined forces to besiege Luo Xuan, attempting to defeat him.
Luo Xuan remained fearless, his form like wind, his sword light like lightning.
With every swing of his sword, an expert from the City Lord's Mansion fell beneath it.
Nevertheless, he acutely felt his inner strength rapidly depleting.
He knew that continuing this way was not feasible; he must find a way to quickly dispose of these experts from the City Lord's Mansion.
Just then, he noticed an elder within the ranks of the City Lord's Mansion.
The elder, dressed in fine garments and wielding a longsword, stood amidst the crowd with eyes like torches.
Luo Xuan recognized that the elder was certainly a strong figure from the City Lord's Mansion.
His heart stirred, and with a flash, he charged toward the elder.
The elder, surprised, swiftly swung his sword to meet Luo Xuan's attack, engaging in a fierce duel.
Both their swords danced and clashed, back and forth, each collision producing deafening sounds that seemed to freeze the surrounding air.
After dozens of rounds of intense battle, Luo Xuan finally found a flaw in the elder's defense.
With a swift thrust, his sword aimed directly at the elder's throat.
The elder's expression changed as he quickly retreated.
However, Luo Xuan's speed outmatched him.
In a swift flash, he caught up with the elder, stabbing him to the ground.
The elder's fall threw the experts of the City Lord's Mansion into chaos.
They lost their backbone and began to scatter and flee.
Luo Xuan seized the opportunity to wield his sword and command the disciples of the Luo Family branch to pursue.
After a fierce battle, the experts of the City Lord's Mansion were finally all defeated.
After the fight ended, Luo Xuan stood on the battlefield, looking at the corpses and blood everywhere, feeling a sense of reflection.
The City Lord's Mansion had already been defeated once.
And now, they had suffered defeat again.
In the vast White Crane City ahead, the City Lord's Mansion would likely have no place of standing.
"The City Lord's Mansion is completely finished."
"Next, it's time to consider how to handle the mess of White Crane City..."
Luo Xuan stood on the battlefield, and his mind began to ponder the future direction of White Crane City.
The fall of the City Lord's Mansion meant that White Crane City was about to undergo a significant transformation.
And as the driving force behind this transformation, the Luo Family branch would naturally assume more responsibilities and obligations.
Firstly, Luo Xuan understood that to stabilize the situation in White Crane City, the public must first be soothed.
Under the tyrannical rule of the City Lord's Mansion, the common people were full of grievances. Now that the City Lord's Mansion had collapsed, although they were elated, they were also filled with concerns and uncertainty about the future.
Therefore, Luo Xuan decided that the first task was to implement a series of policies to ease the public's concerns, showing them that the Luo Family branch would be a fair and benevolent ruler.
He gathered several elders and elite disciples from the Luo Family branch to jointly discuss how to formulate these policies.
...
White Crane City, within the ancestral land of the Luo Family branch.
Luo Tian, the present Family Head of the White Crane City Luo Family branch, was quietly sitting at the main seat.
Luo Xuan, Luo Yao.
And Luo Qianqiu, the elder of the Luo Family branch, sat respectively by his side.
The rest of the high-level members of the Luo Family branch were seated all around.
