Peerless Medical Emperor

If a fight really broke out, it would do the Luo Family no good whatsoever.

Naturally, that was a situation he was unwilling to see.

"Hahaha!"

"Elder Wu, you jest."

"The true meaning of ’martial’ is to cease hostilities. Your surname is Wu, and you’ve brought so many martial arts masters with you. How can you resort to violence?"

"We of the Luo Family are the most reasonable of people."

Just then, a man walked out of a room. It was none other than Luo Ke’s older brother, Luo Bin.

Another person followed him out, walking just behind Luo Bin. It was the Luo Family’s Military Advisor, Wu Sheng.

Wu Sheng smiled as he looked at Elder Wu.

"Elder Wu, your demands are simply too steep."

"The Luo Family truly cannot meet them."

"I imagine that isn’t your true intention, is it?"

"Just say what’s on your mind."

Wu Sheng looked at Elder Wu with a smile.

Elder Wu, however, did not answer immediately.

"So, even Military Advisor Wu has made an appearance."

"Does that mean Patriarch Luo will be out soon as well?"

"Forget the hundred billion."

"But as for the Wu Family territory that your Luo Family has occupied... shouldn’t you be returning it to us?"

Elder Wu said.

"What territory?"

Luo Bin, however, looked utterly bewildered and immediately began playing dumb.

"Are you genuinely confused, or just playing dumb?"

Elder Wu stared at Luo Bin, clearly displeased.

"I genuinely don’t understand."

"Luo Family territory belongs to the Luo Family, and Wu Family territory belongs to the Wu Family."

"We’ve never bullied anyone."

How could Luo Bin possibly admit to it?

"If you refuse to admit it, what choice do I have?"

"I have a marked map right here."

"These places all used to belong to our Wu Family."

"In recent years, they’ve been neglected, and your Luo Family has slowly encroached upon them."

"Isn’t it time you returned them to us?"

Elder Wu said.

After hearing Elder Wu speak, Chen Qingdi finally understood the true purpose of the old man’s visit today.

Having territory meant having vast amounts of money and resources.

But now that so much of it had fallen into the hands of the Luo Family, it was only natural that Elder Wu was extremely anxious.

’And this is just the Luo Family,’ Chen Qingdi thought. ’Other families have probably, to a greater or lesser extent, also seized a good deal of Wu Family territory.’

’Of course, the Wu Family has likely seized plenty of land from smaller families as well. In this world, the strong prey on the weak.’

Chen Qingdi had long since grown accustomed to all of this.

’Looks like I’ll need my own piece of territory when the time comes.’

’But those are plans for the future.’

However, Chen Qingdi also knew the Luo Family wouldn’t easily hand over the territories they had already claimed as their own.

The real reason Elder Wu was doing this was simply to put the Luo Family on notice.

No matter what, the Luo Family would at least have to return a portion of it to Elder Wu.

After all, if the two families really came to blows, the Wu Family’s strength was not necessarily any weaker than the Luo’s.

And the Luo Family didn’t want that kind of trouble.

"Haha, you jest, Elder Wu."

"The Luo Family has always conducted its business honorably."

"Why would we go looking for trouble with others?"

"How did these marked territories suddenly become the Wu Family’s?"

"One side’s claims aren’t enough to be believed."

Luo Bin said with a smile.

"I say it is, so it is."

"It was ours then, and it is ours now."

"Just tell me. Are you going to return it or not?"

Elder Wu looked at Luo Bin.

"Alright, I know you two juniors can’t make the final decision. Go get your father."

Elder Wu said.

Luo Bin glanced at Wu Sheng, momentarily at a loss for what to do.

"I would advise you to go back, Elder Wu."

"Continuing to cause a scene like this won’t help matters, will it?"

"A map you’ve marked up yourself is meaningless."

Wu Sheng said.

"Haha."

"For a ’Military Advisor,’ your words are even more pointless."

"Is Luo Tianfeng still not coming out?"

"Do you really want to force my hand and have me flatten your Luo Family?"

Elder Wu said, his face a cold mask.

"Elder Wu, don’t push things too far."

"Do you really think the Luo Family has no one to stand up to you?"

"If we really fight, I fear that after this battle, your Wu Family will no longer have the strength for another."

Luo Bin said, his face flush with anger.

Seeing Luo Bin’s cold and detached expression, Elder Wu refused to back down an inch.

"Attack!"

Elder Wu shot to his feet, his gaze turning impossibly cold.

With a great RUSTLE, the men of the Wu Family surged forward.

Upon seeing this, the Luo Family members grew tense.

"Wait!"

Just then, a voice rang out.

Then, the main person of interest for the Luo Family finally made his entrance. It was, of course, Luo Tianfeng.

Luo Tianfeng approached Elder Wu with a smile on his face.

"Elder Wu, long time no see."

"I didn’t expect you to look so hale and hearty."

Luo Tianfeng said with a smile.

"What, were you hoping I’d die sooner?"

Elder Wu shot Luo Tianfeng an irritated glance.

"I wouldn’t dare, I wouldn’t dare. How could I possibly have such a thought?"

"I would wish for nothing more than for Elder Wu to live a long and healthy life."

Luo Tianfeng said with a smile.

"Enough with the pleasantries. Let’s get down to business."

"These places I’ve marked are all Wu Family territory."

"It’s time you returned them to us."

"You’ve occupied them for long enough."

Elder Wu said.

"Elder Wu, you can’t just say something is yours and make it so."

"Since ancient times, when one dynasty falls, another rises to take its place."

"Perhaps it was yours in the past, but now it is ours."

"If you truly want it back, then come and take it."

Luo Tianfeng said in a low voice.

It seemed Luo Tianfeng had no intention of giving anything back at all.

Luo Tianfeng’s attitude was exceedingly firm, something Elder Wu hadn’t quite expected.

"I’ve come all this way."

"Are you really going to make me leave empty-handed?"

"If that’s the case, I’m afraid that is something I cannot accept."

Elder Wu said.

"Since you’ve come all this way, I can’t be that stingy."

"How about this. These few areas."

"I’ll return them to you."

As he spoke, Luo Tianfeng picked up a pen and began to draw on the map.

After marking a few spots, he stopped.

"I can return these areas I’ve marked to you."

"If you’re still not satisfied, then I’m afraid there’s nothing more I can do."

Luo Tianfeng said.

Elder Wu had achieved his objective.

He had, at the very least, gotten a few parcels of land back. For him, that was enough.

"Alright."

Elder Wu finally nodded.

One shouldn’t underestimate these few plots of land. If properly developed, their annual profits could easily exceed a billion.

This was precisely why Elder Wu wanted to reclaim the territory. Chen Qingdi realized he should have thought of it sooner, but he simply hadn’t given it that much thought at the time.
