In Li Luo, Jiang Qing'e and his entourage returned to Dashacheng in a carriage.

  Inside the carriage, the oriole's voice and swallow's words are full of spring charm. The three beautiful women with unique facial features echo each other, giving people a sense of being able to feast their eyes on beauty.

  However, among the three women, Cai Wei was still speaking more, reporting on all matters of the Luo Lan Mansion for the past month.

  After all, when Jiang Qing'e and Li Luo both entered the academy to cultivate, the operation of various large and small matters in Luolan Prefecture fell on Cai Wei's shoulders. If she didn't exist, Li Luo believed that Jiang Qing'e would be even more worried and tired.

  Cai Wei was indeed exceptional in her management skills, and the countless trivial matters of Luo Lan Fu were handled by her in an orderly manner. This position of chief steward was truly well-deserved.

  "Other industries in Luolan Prefecture have been calm this month, but there have been big changes on the side of Xiyang House."

  "Thanks to the secret method of providing Yuan water by the Lord of Shaofu, this side of Xi Yangwu's headquarters has reached an income of 300,000 Tianliang Jin in just one month."

  Even Jiang Qing'e couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise, her golden eyes staring at Li Luo in astonishment.

  In the past, the headquarters of Xi Yang House had an annual income of around 10 million, and each month was around 1 million. But because of Li Luo's mysterious source water, it has now increased by a full three times?

  This year alone, wouldn't the headquarters of Guangxi Yangwu be able to reach an income of over 30 million? This is almost equivalent to half of the entire Luolan Prefecture in previous years!

  Facing Jiang Qing'e's astonished gaze, Li Luo felt an extremely strong sense of pleasure. After all, the Great White Goose was too excellent, and in the past, there wasn't any aspect that could make her feel surprised.

  At this moment, it's a bit exciting, but to maintain his demeanor, he just smiled slightly and waved his hand lightly: "This upgrade is actually within expectations, after all, the Tianxuan County Xiyang House has already experienced such an increase."

  Cai Wei immediately said, "However, due to the Shao Fu master's demand for Ling Shui Qi Guang being too high, this month we purchased seven six-grade Ling Shui Qi Guang and over twenty five-grade Ling Shui Qi Guang. So this part of the expenditure reached 320,000 Tian Liang Jin, and in the end, we still lost 20,000."

  Li Luo's smile suddenly stiffened, Cai Wei sister, I feel like you're targeting me!

  "This is still not enough to make ends meet, Lord Zuo Fu. Your pit is quite deep." Yan Lingqing smiled and added a knife.

  Jiang Qing'e smiled and said, "Making money is originally for spending, this isn't doing useless work. After all, those spiritual waters and strange lights were used to invest in Li Luo. When he achieves Double Pole Great Completion in the future, and Luolan Manor gains a new powerful Marquis, it won't be considered a loss."

  Li Luo was moved, but still felt sorry for Da E.

  However, for his own future gains, he felt that this loss-making situation should also be changed, so he asked: "Sister Cai Wei, shouldn't the headquarters of Xiyangwu still have room for improvement in terms of income?"

  On the side of Tian Shu County, he was able to achieve such an improvement. The headquarters is even stronger in scale than Tian Shu County, so logically speaking, the increase should also be stronger.

  "It was supposed to be like that... but don't forget, the Xiyangwu headquarters isn't in its heyday anymore." Cai Wei reminded.

  Li Luo was taken aback, and then shook his head helplessly, almost forgetting that previously when he had just arrived in Dashacheng, the Dazefu had tried to give him a big gift by directly buying off the previous president of Xiuyang House, Han Zhi, and poaching nearly half of the Quanzhen masters, causing the Xiuyang House headquarters to suffer greatly.

  For a Quyang House, the Refiner is fundamental. After all, no matter how many secret methods, source water, source light, and materials you have, without a Refiner to refine them, everything is useless.

  "This white-eyed wolf..."

  Li Luonan couldn't help but scold, "You're leaving, just leave then! And you even took away so many of our Shui Xiang masters. These are the roots of Xi Yang House, and your methods are too ruthless!"

  "Has anyone gone to invite Master Zhuan recently?" asked Jiang Qing'e.

  Cai Wei's rounded chin nodded slightly, saying: "We've been recruiting all along, and the treatment has also been raised to a high level. We even used the secret method of providing Yuan Shui by the young master of the Zuo Mansion as a promotional point, but... the effect is not as good as we imagined."

  Li Luo furrowed his brow. The Seventh Rank Secret Method of Yuan Water was quite advanced, and it had a great deal of appeal to many Quenching Masters. How could it possibly be ineffective?

  "It was Jiang Qing'e who slowly said: 'Ambushed? Who is it?'"

  Cai Wei smiled helplessly: "Who else could it be? Of course, it's the 'Dazeyuan' of Du Ze Fu. They spent such a huge price to poach Han Zhi and severely injured our Xiyang House. How could they possibly sit back and watch Xiyang House slowly recover?"

  "In the past month, the performance of Xi Yang House has been impressive, and they must be surprised by this. So, they have made up their minds to interfere with Xi Yang House's recruitment of more Shifu masters and prevent us from recovering our scale."

  "Here is Du Ze Fu again..."

  Li Luo's eyes flashed with a hint of gloom, in this school, the Duzefu siblings kept finding trouble for him, and in this Dashacheng, the Duzefu was also intensifying its various offensives against the Luoluanfu, trying to dissolve and annex it.

  The struggle within the academic institution still maintains some bottom line, but outside...the struggle and competition between big families and big families have no means, morality can be talked about, that is a bloody knife.

  Douze wants to remove Luolan from the five major families and then swallow it whole, leaving no bones behind.

  Li Luo even thought that if it weren't for the fact that he and Jiang Qing'e had both entered the Sacred Xuanxing Academy, and were also quite valued by the academy, the Ze Prefecture would have likely used some underhanded methods to eliminate them directly. At that time, the Luolan Prefecture, having lost its leader, would naturally collapse on its own.

  "Nowadays in Dashaci, some of the better free tempering masters, especially those who have been in contact with Xi Yang Wu, have almost all been approached by 'Daze Wu' and offered even better terms than we have."

  Cai Wei's eyebrows furrowed in anger, and she said thinly, "Daze House is relying on its deep foundation to try and crush Xi Yang House."

  But it has to be said that Taizong's move was both simple and ruthless, and Xiyang had already suffered a severe blow. If not for Li Luo's high-purity Secret Origin Water this time, he might have been directly knocked down by Taizong's targeted attack.

  But even so, it's still difficult for Xiyang House to recruit more excellent mentors.

  There are no more Quenching Masters, and it's hard for the Xiyang House to expand in scale. It will naturally not have the effect of revitalizing Luolan Prefecture.

  "Let's take things slowly for now. As long as the Xiyangwu side is stable, there will be opportunities to expand." Jiang Qing'e said calmly.

  Li Luo and Cai Wei both nodded, although they were being pressed step by step in the Ze government, but they couldn't mess up their minds, they could only wait for an opportunity to move.

  "By the way, there's something else, it's a bit urgent."

  Tsai Wei's face slightly froze, looking at Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e.

  "According to the intelligence I've gathered, many of the Qu Xiang masters from the Xi Ling County Creek Yang Wu division have rushed to Da Xia City. Previously idle Pang Qianchi had contact with them and felt that... some of the newcomers are not benevolent."

  Li Luo was taken aback and said: "The Xiling Prefecture's Xi Yang House branch?"

  Xiyang House, in this great summer, apart from the headquarters located in Dashacheng, also has two branches, one in Nanfeng City, Tianshu County, and the other is located within Xiling County.

  However, Xiling County is within the sphere of influence of Pei Huan, so the local branch of Qingyang House has long been controlled by Pei Huan and does not listen to the dispatches from the headquarters.

  So at this moment, these Xiling Jun division's Quexing masters gathered in Dashaci City and contacted Pang Qianchi, what do they want to do?

  "It should be Bae Ho's push from behind." said Kang Qing'e calmly.

  Whether it's the Xiling County's Quanxiang Master or Pang Qianchi, they are all considered to be under Pei Huan's command. Now that they have gathered together, if you say there is no instruction from Pei Huan behind their backs, that would be a bit too naive.

  Bae Ho

  At the mention of this name, a chill flashed in Li Luo's eyes. This was the culprit who had caused internal and external troubles for the Luolan government, making it precarious.

  "Notify Léi Zhāng Gē, keep an eye on Páng Qiān Chǐ and his group for the time being... of course, most importantly, see if you can find Péi Hào, I have a feeling that he might also take this opportunity to come to Dà Xià City." Jiāng Qīng é said.

  Li Luo furrowed his brow and said: "Is Pei Hao here too?"

  Previously, gathering with Pei Huan in the old mansion of Nanfeng City led to the division of the nine pavilions of Luolan Prefecture. If Pei Huan has come to Wangcheng again, it's likely not for sightseeing; vigilance must be maintained.

  Jiang Qing'e nodded: "I have this premonition."

  "If he comes to Dashaci..." A cold and ruthless glint flashed in Li Luo's eyes.

  "Can't we find an opportunity to get rid of him?"

  Luolan Prefecture's power is now divided, mainly because of Pei Huan. If he can be decisively killed, although the situation will still be chaotic, as long as he and Jiang Qing'e do not make trouble, it will still be possible to gradually stabilize the situation. Once Pei Huan, the biggest internal threat, is eliminated, Luolan Prefecture will actually recover faster.

  Jiang Qing'e said in a low voice, "Actually, Pei Hao has never been the one I'm afraid of... What I'm really afraid of is who's behind him, supporting him."

  A shadow flashed across Li Luo's eyes, and behind Pei Hao, there was probably a top-notch force providing him with assistance, otherwise he wouldn't have had the guts to directly turn against them after his parents went missing.

  But who is supporting him?

  Are they from Douze Prefecture or Jiyan Prefecture? These two are the top powers that have always been at odds with Luolan Prefecture and also have such a motive, or is it some other power?

  Li Luo rubbed his brow, it seemed that with the arrival of this news, this holiday would not be so easy-going after all.

  One more update.
