Chapter 183 Changes in Qingshi City, the Profligate Young Master Fang He_2
Luo Changfeng suddenly stopped.
He turned around and glanced at Ruan Liuli behind him, who still didn't show any expression and whose body was still exuding bursts of icy coldness.
Ruan Liuli looked at the candied hawthorn stick in Luo Changfeng's hand.
After her throat moved slightly, she shook her head, her expression seeming quite determined.
"Really don't want it?"
Luo Changfeng asked in a low voice, with a hint of playfulness in his words.
Ruan Liuli silently shook her head again.
However, that flash of longing in her eyes,
was easily captured by Luo Changfeng.
"Alright, alright."
"Don't refuse."
As Luo Changfeng spoke, he stuffed the untouched candied hawthorn stick directly into her mouth.
Ruan Liuli was initially startled, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
It seemed she hadn't expected her master to do such a thing.
But, it was only for a moment.
Soon, she started to enjoy it, slightly squinting her eyes.
On her face, a weak smile rarely appeared.
So, this was candied hawthorn?
Indeed, just as the vendor had said, sour and sweet.
Indeed... quite delicious.
"That's more like it."
Luo Changfeng looked at the gradually changing Ruan Liuli from being icy at first to a somewhat dazed cute look now.
After nodding in satisfaction,
he continued walking toward the outskirts of Qingshi City.
Luo Mountain Prefecture, Qingshi City.
This city was divided into two main areas.
One was the inner city.
The other was the outer city.
The inner city, enveloped by the outer city, was extremely bustling and lively.
The Luo Family Ancestral Land was located within the inner city of Qingshi City.
Therefore, other clans under the Luo Family and forces in Luo Mountain Prefecture crazily vied to move into the inner city.
It seemed that they did so just to be closer to the Luo Family.
Even if they couldn't eventually squeeze into the power center led by the Luo Family,
at least their safety was guaranteed.
After all, no one with a sane mind,
would dare cause trouble in a city where the Luo Family resided, right?

...
The inner city of Qingshi City was vast.
However, the outer city spanned an area more than ten times larger than that of the inner city.
Besides the difference in size,
the level of prosperity in the outer city of Qingshi City was also not as high as that of the inner city.
The inner city felt upscale and grand.
Whereas the outer city seemed more rustic and straightforward.
However, when it came to the level of liveliness,
the outer city was indeed several times more animated than the inner city.
After all, the inner city of Qingshi City was not a place one could simply stroll into.
Moreover, even if the outer city of Qingshi City was inferior,
it was still a part of Qingshi City.
It was also, part of the land where the Luo Family Clan resided.
Therefore, even just the outer city of Qingshi City was enough to attract countless people to push their way in.
"The changes in the outer city seem to be much greater than I had imagined..."
Walking on the streets of Qingshi City's outer city,
Luo Changfeng observed everything in front of him.
He couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly.
His impression of the outer city of Qingshi City was still stuck at the time when that demonic monk was crazily brainwashing and spreading Buddhist teachings in the outer city.
Back then, the outer city of Qingshi City indeed looked somewhat dilapidated and shabby.
But with continuous development over time, the outer city of Qingshi City had evidently transformed itself anew.
"It seems that Luo Ping has managed the outer city of Qingshi City quite well..."
After watching the surroundings for a long time,
Luo Changfeng gradually formed such a thought in his mind.
"Let's go."
"It's about time."
"We should head back..."
Luo Changfeng spoke to Ruan Liuli, who was behind him with a puffed-up mouth, looking slightly different from usual.
Ruan Liuli was still silent,
but she quickly nodded.
However, just as Luo Changfeng was about to turn around and leave,
he suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly.
He faintly sensed that a gaze seemed to be looking in his direction,
If it were just an ordinary look, Luo Changfeng wouldn't have been so sensitive.
But this gaze was somewhat peculiar.
"Master, should we make a move?"
Behind Luo Changfeng, Ruan Liuli mumbled with her mouth full of candied haw, her words somewhat unclear.
"No rush."
"Let's observe first."
As Luo Changfeng spoke, he continued walking towards the inner city of Qingshi City.
...
Qingshi City, the outer city.
In a certain corner.
At this moment, there was a dandy young master clad in splendid attire, and a middle-aged man with a robust build emitting a faint murderous aura.
Both were standing silently in place.
"Young Master, I always feel that something is off about that old man, maybe we should..."
"Maybe we shouldn't provoke him?"
The middle-aged man, with his robust form and a faint murderous aura, spoke in a low voice after a long silence.
"Is that old man very strong?"
Fang He, the young master, asked quietly.
"No..." The middle-aged man shook his head, his eyes filled with complexity as he continued, "It's just a feeling that there's something off about that old man. My intuition is telling me not to provoke that old fellow lightly; otherwise... something unexpected might happen."
Upon hearing this, the young master fell silent for a moment.
He turned his head and glanced back at the middle-aged man whose expression seemed somewhat somber.
Then, he turned back.
Looking towards Ruan Liuli who was walking behind Luo Changfeng, dressed in a black outfit, her skin pale and cold.
Her delicate little face,
And her slightly pouted lips, added even more cuteness and adorableness to her appearance.
Dandy young master Fang He couldn't help but clench his teeth.
In his eyes, a hint of hesitation flickered.
Intuition is hard to explain.
Sometimes it is accurate,
Sometimes it's just psychological factors at play.
If it were any other time, Fang He wouldn't easily provoke that old man in the white robe with long white hair.
But this time, it felt somewhat different.
The woman following that old man...
Had set Fang He's heart ablaze with a crazy desire.
"Make a move..."
After a lengthy silence,
Fang He finally issued such an order to the bodyguard behind him.
"Young Master..."
The middle-aged man furrowed his brows slightly.
It seemed he still wanted to persuade him otherwise.
But upon seeing the resolute look on Fang He's face,
He could only sigh in resignation.
Then, he began to approach the man in white, the old man who was Luo Changfeng.
He hoped that all of this was nothing but his psyche playing tricks!
He hoped that all of this was just his misconception...
...
"They're coming."
As they walked,
Luo Changfeng suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Ruan Liuli, who was behind him and still eating a candied haw, also stopped.
"Let's make a deal..."
A young man in splendid attire, with a trace of a smile on his face, gradually appeared in Luo Changfeng's field of view.
A middle-aged man was following him in silence.
The man had a robust build and was faintly emitting a murderous aura.
His martial cultivation level wasn't very high,
Merely at the Viscera Refinement Initial Stage.
However, this so-called ''not high'' was only in comparison to Luo Changfeng.
To some ordinary people or normal family powers,
Viscera Refinement Initial Stage was already considered a very high cultivation level.
"A deal?"
"What deal?"
Luo Changfeng looked at the dandy young man in front of him,
Instead of taking immediate action, he chose to engage in a leisurely and casual conversation.
Dandy young master Fang He pointed towards Ruan Liuli, who was behind Luo Changfeng,
A look of desire flashed through his eyes.
He then said in a low voice, "I want her. Just name your price, whatever it is..."
Listening to these words,
Luo Changfeng turned his head and looked at Ruan Liuli who was still enjoying her candied haw.
For a moment, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Should we take action?"
Ruan Liuli, noticing her master's gaze, casually asked again in a muffled voice.
