History of the Luo Family
When Ye Fei walked into Beast King City, his first impression was that there were a lot of Vicious Beasts here. Vicious Beasts could be seen flying in the sky, running on the ground, and even in the water.
Here, humans and Vicious Beasts had a very close relationship. Even many children in Beast King City would raise some docile Vicious Beasts as pets.
Even more powerful Vicious Beasts and even Demonic Beasts would be captured by the warriors of Beast King City and sold to various places in exchange for cultivation resources.
All the shops focused on purchasing materials, such as animal skins, animal fangs, animal bones, and other useful items from Vicious Beasts. Seeing this kind of city, Ye Fei felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
As the saying goes, those who rely on the mountain live off the mountain, and those who rely on the water live off the water. The Black Rock City that Ye Fei once lived in was basically similar to the Beast King City. They also made a living by hunting Vicious Beasts and planting spiritual herbs. However, the scale of Beast King City was dozens of times larger than Blackrock City.
The warriors here were also very strong. Luo Xi had once chatted with Ye Fei and said that a Martial King Realm expert had once walked out of the Beast King City's City Lord's Mansion, causing a great commotion.
Other than the City Lord's Office, which was the strongest, the four strongest families in Beast King City were the Four Great Families, which were famous for their mastery of Beast Taming. Among them, the Luo Family, which Luo Xi belonged to, was one of the strongest of the Four Great Families.
Therefore, it was very convenient for Ye Fei to inquire about the Luo Family's location in the city. Very quickly, Ye Fei arrived at the entrance of the Luo Family's residence. Strangely, as one of the strongest families in the Beast Monarch City, the entrance of the Luo Family's residence was deserted.
In broad daylight, the gate of the Luo family's residence was tightly shut. Ye Fei felt even more strange when he saw that she was acting like she was trying to keep strangers away from her.
Ye Fei happened to see a servant of the Luo family walking out of the side door to buy groceries. He went up to him and asked, "Uncle, may I ask if this is the Luo family where Luo Xi lives?"
"This is the Luo family's residence. May I ask who Young Master is and how you know our Eldest Young Master?" The old man was very cautious as he looked at Ye Fei.
Ye Fei rubbed his nose and could only reveal his identity. "This humble one is Ye Fei. I'm good friends with Luo Xi."
...., please wait a moment, I'll pass. I'll inform our Young Master immediately. "The old man's vigilance disappeared and his attitude became respectful...... However, his frown was still his frown.... Ye Fei's's Luo..
"Did something happen in your residence?" .. "Family ''s's Family's Nine Family Clan's Family's Family's Family''s........
"Hey, I'm just a servant. I can't explain it clearly, and I don't dare to say it. Senior, since you're good friends with the Eldest Young Master, I'm sure the Family Head will be willing to tell you." The old man didn't say anything else. He quickly returned to the side door and reported to the Family Head.
. Ye Fei could only stand there and wait.
After a quarter of an hour, the Luo family's main door opened halfway. A Rank 1 Martial Honorable Realm middle-aged man came out with a few Martial Ancestor Realm Luo Family Elders. He looked at Ye Fei and said, "You're Ye Fei, my son Luo Xi's good friend? Do you have proof? "
The Luo Family Head was also cautious. Ye Fei was helpless. He thought for a while and said, "The spiritual eagle on Luo Xi's shoulder and his Acquired Beast Body. Does that count as proof?"
"Yes, of course!" The Luo Family Head nodded. The Acquired Beast Body was the Luo Family's biggest secret. Even the other families in Beast King City did not know about it. Since Ye Fei knew about it, his relationship with Luo Xi was obvious.
The Luo Family Head no longer had any doubts. He quickly invited Ye Fei into the Luo Family and quickly closed the main door. This made Ye Fei even more confused.
"Luo Family Head, where's Luo Xi? Why isn't he coming out?"
"Sigh, it's a long story! Since you're my son's good friend, you don't have to call me Family Head. Just call me Uncle. "The Luo Family Head said.
"Then if I may be so bold as to ask Father Luo Bo, did something happen to Luo Xi?" Seeing the Luo Family Head acting strangely, Ye Fei began to worry.
"Nephew, you shouldn't have come. Sigh..." The Luo Family Head sighed again. Ye Fei immediately knew that something must have happened to Luo Xi.
Ye Fei stood up and said seriously, "Father Luo Bo, Luo Xi is my good friend. If he's in any trouble, I will definitely help him. Please tell me what happened to Luo Xi."
"Well, since you've said so, I won't hide it from you. This matter has to start from the business of the Luo Clan …" The head of the Luo Clan continued to sigh as he told Ye Fei the truth.
Just as Ye Fei had guessed, most of the Luo Family's income came from subduing the Vicious Beasts. This was considered one of the pillars of Beast King City's industry.
Every year, the Luo Family only had to pay 30% of the taxes to the City Lord Mansion. The remaining 70% was enough for the Luo Family to live comfortably.
Unfortunately, after a Martial King appeared in the City Lord Mansion, the Luo Family and the other families in the city began to suffer.
As soon as the Martial King appeared, he immediately issued a new decree. He required the four families in the city to pay 50% of the taxes every month instead of 30%. After being rejected by the major clans, the Martial King decided to raise the tax to seventy percent.
Seventy percent of the taxes, how heavy of a burden was that? In an instant, the four prosperous families in the city fell to the bottom of the valley. This was also the reason why Ye Fei had come to see the Luo Family Head was deserted.
"Of course, seventy percent of the taxes isn't a big deal. At worst, we can just leave Beast King City and start over. However, the City Lord didn't even give us the chance to leave. When he found out that we had the intention to leave, the City Lord quickly dispatched a large number of experts to capture the younger generation of our families and bring them to the depths of the mountains to fight with the vicious beasts!"
The Luo Family Head's face was full of anger as he said this. "It's called fighting, but it's actually killing. In the past three years, more than 30 outstanding disciples of the Luo Family have died at Longevity Mountain. My son Luo Xi also couldn't stand the City Lord Mansion bullying us, so he traveled thousands of miles to the Taixuan Holy Land to learn martial arts. Unfortunately..."
"Unfortunately? What? Could it be that Luo Xi..." Ye Fei suddenly had a bad premonition. Only now did he know that Luo Xi had joined the Taixuan Holy Land to change the fate of his family.
Knowing that Ye Fei had misunderstood, the Luo Family Head hurriedly shook his head. "Nephew, don't worry. Luo Xi is fine for the time being. After he returned, he and the other disciples of the Luo Family were all captured and brought to Longevity Mountain to hunt the Demonic Beasts. The City Lord promised us that as long as we could kill 100,000 Martial Grandmaster Realm Demonic Beasts, he would let us go.
"But I'm still worried that the City Lord has other motives. I'm even more worried that once we kill 100,000 Demonic Beasts, the City Lord will kill us to keep the secret.
"Nephew, now you know the difficulties of the Luo Family. If you don't want to be implicated, you should leave before the City Lord Mansion discovers you."
After the Luo Family Head finished speaking, he stood up and wanted to urge Ye Fei to leave quickly. Ye Fei smiled bitterly. He could see that the owner of this house was a good person.
However, Luo Xi was his brother. Now that his brother's family was in trouble, Ye Fei couldn't ignore it. Thus, he stood up and said, "Father Luo Feng, Luo Xi is locked up there. I'll go and rescue him."
