What a lucky world!

Chapter 250 Calculations by All Parties
After a brief silence, Long Yunbo bowed to Zhang Mu and said, "Brother, this matter involves the Dragon Clan. Given my family's relationship with the Dragon Clan, I have no choice but to intervene since I've witnessed it."

"But I am alone and weak, so I would like to ask for your help, brother."

Zhang Mu was also worried about having no excuse to pursue the Luo family. When he heard Long Yunbo say this, he immediately laughed and said, "Of course not. If you call me Brother, then of course I will help you."

Long Yunbo was delighted when he heard this: "Brother Shi is straightforward!"

"Then what should we do next?" Zhang Mu asked.

Anyway, Long Yunbo has to worry about it himself.

If you don’t know how to use your subordinates, you will only end up working yourself to death.jpg!

Long Yunbo pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go back and discuss it carefully first."

Zhang Mu: Ah?

……

Qingyuan City, east of the city.

The nine-zhang gatehouse built of blue bricks stands majestically. After passing through the gatehouse, you will walk onto a wide stone path paved with gold powder. There is a stone platform every few steps on both sides of the stone path. Various swords are placed on the stone platforms, and each sword is a top-grade weapon.

The stone path was about thirty feet long, and at the end was a vermilion-painted gate. The bronze beast-faced auxiliary heads held a golden ring. Above the gate hung a large plaque with four large characters written in a flamboyant style:

"Deep love for the old sword"!
The former Jian Luo family!

Compared with other famous families, the Luo family is not very prosperous, especially in the last few generations, all of which are single-line. There are rumors that the Luo family's fortune is too closely tied to the great fortune of the court, so when the great fortune declines, the Luo family will naturally not be able to prosper.

Though the Luo family's population may be small, the old Luo residence still exudes the grandeur of a century-old family heritage. The couplets, inscribed with mermaid tears ground into powder and mixed with ink, shimmer with a shimmering light even at night. Centenary wisteria vines droop from the brick-carved window lattices depicting five blessings holding longevity. Visible night mist drifts among the flower spikes, like traces of ink left behind by a great scholar.

It was already late at night, and the servants were hurrying back and forth, but they just circled around the main hall and didn't dare go in. Only the trusted butler would come out from time to time to take some wine and tea and bring them in.

The main hall was brightly lit, and there were three people sitting there, one woman and two men. One of the men had a head full of white hair and looked quite old. The other man and woman were of similar age, looking to be in their forties or fifties.

These three people are none other than the three members of the Luo family who have reached the Judan realm. They are the head of the Luo family, Roosevelt, his son Luo Dingnan, and his adopted daughter Luo Dingcui.

At this time, all three of them were injured, but they could not hide their joy.

In front of them, a hornless Chilong with a body as white as jade and about ten feet long was lying on the floor of the hall. The Chilong had its eyes closed, as if it was asleep. Several long swords that seemed to be made of bones were inserted into the Chilong's body, emitting a faint blue light.

"It's worthy of being called the Dragon-Trapping Nail. It's not a waste of our three thousand luck coins." Roosevelt said with a smile.

Luo Dingnan, who was sitting at the bottom, nodded in agreement: "What a pity, it's just a Chilong."

"Brother, you can't say that." Luo Dingcui, who was sitting opposite, chuckled. "If it were a real dragon, would we still dare to attack it?"

Roosevelt nodded: "Yes. Chilong is pretty good."

"Once we extract the dragon energy from this Chilong and merge it with the luck of our Luo family, we will be able to push our Luo family's luck up a step further. Then you and I will be able to reach the later stages."

Luo Dingcui shook her head: "I'm still a long way off, but there's hope for you, big brother."

"It's a pity."

"If it weren't for the imperial court's weakness, our Luo family could even challenge the wealthy families this time!"

"With prosperity comes disaster." Roosevelt waved his hand. "Let's not talk about this again."

After saying this, Roosevelt looked at Luo Dingnan and said, "Dingnan, lock this Chilong in the dungeon first. Once I have rested for a while and my energy is fully recovered, I will start refining the dragon energy."

Luo Dingnan nodded: "I understand, kid."

……

At the same time, a luxurious courtyard in Qingyuan City had just changed hands.

"Logically speaking, in Qingyuan City, only the Luo family has the ability to deploy more than two people in the Judan realm." Long Yunbo said to Zhang Mu, "But this is just our speculation."

"If we go directly to their house to verify it, the Luo family will definitely deny it!"

"So, we still need to find evidence."

Zhang Mu frowned slightly. "Your Long family doesn't have that kind of special means... like being able to sense the Chilong?" Long Yunbo looked at Zhang Mu helplessly. "Brother Shi, our last name is Long, but we are not dragons!"

"Then find a dragon!" Zhang Mu blurted out.

Long Yunbo opened his mouth for a long moment, then gave a wry smile: "That would be a big deal."

"Even though the Chilong hasn't forged a dragon soul, Dragon Island doesn't care much about it. But if we really find a real dragon and let it see a Chilong being captured by humans, it would be like a slap in the face!"

"The Dragon Clan's principle is: life is less important than face!"

"I think the entire Qingyuan City is going to be in trouble."

At this point, Long Yunbo seemed to have thought of something and continued, "Back then, there was a young Grandmaster who got into a dispute with a real dragon. He pulled out the dragon's tendons and skinned it. As a result, the elders of Dragon Island came in person and threatened to flood the entire city."

"Forced that young genius to commit suicide."

"If the war between humans and demons hadn't been going on, it would have triggered a war between humans and dragons."

Zhang Mu was stunned: I seem to have heard this story before.

"What happened next?" Zhang Mu asked.

"What happened later?" Long Yunbo sighed. "The young master's master was a Shushan sword immortal. He used the young master's soul as a foundation to forge a peerless immortal sword... Oh, why are you talking about this? Let's get down to business."

"In short, we have to investigate the Chilong matter ourselves. If it really is the Luo family, we have to deal with it ourselves!"

Zhang Mu shrugged: "The question is how to check?"

“Where do I start?”

Long Yunbo rolled his eyes and said, "Brother Shi, it's time to reveal your true identity!"

Zhang Mu: Ah?

What status?
The leader of Qianyuan Village?
……

The next day.

A luxurious carriage drove through the streets of Qingyuan City.

Passersby who saw the carriage all made way. A man dressed as a young man did so in a hurry and accidentally twisted his ankle. He was about to open his mouth to curse when someone suddenly covered his mouth.

"What are you doing!" The young man slapped the hand that was blocking his mouth, "Do you want to die?"

"No, sir, please stop scolding!"

"Why can't I curse? The prefect is my uncle, I can curse him if I want!"

"Sir, look carefully, that's the Luo family's carriage!"

Upon hearing this, the young man looked at the carriage going away. He could vaguely see the family crest on the back of the carriage, and suddenly felt a chill on his back.

He had been in Qingyuan City for only two weeks, and during that time, his uncle, the prefect, had said to him, "You can do whatever you want in the city, but don't mess with the Luo family!"

"Thank goodness, thank goodness!" The young man patted his chest and was about to reward the servant who covered his mouth when suddenly a loud bang came from the front.

The young man looked over when he heard the sound and immediately opened his mouth wide.

I saw that the luxurious carriage was overturned, and a man dressed as a scholar grabbed a boy of about fourteen or fifteen from the fallen carriage.

If I am not mistaken, that young man should be the legitimate son of the Luo family, the only grandson of the current head of the Luo family, and the lifeblood of the Luo family.

The scholar knocked the young master of the Luo family unconscious with a single blow of his hand, then carried him on his shoulders and, with a flick of his hand, knocked down several servants of the Luo family who surrounded him, and then quickly disappeared into the crowd.

"The lifeblood of the Luo family was... kidnapped?" The young man broke out in a cold sweat.

Something big happened in Qingyuan City!
