Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 15593

Chapter 15591 Looking for trouble
Supplies. Building a permanent base requires a large amount of supplies. Who will provide so many supplies? This is a big problem. If you build a temporary base, the supplies will be very few, and if everyone shares them equally, it’s still okay. But if you build a permanent base, the supplies required are too much. Even if everyone shares them equally, it will be a huge number. In this case, no one is willing to pay. And there is another very important point, that is, if this permanent base is built, then who will own it in the future? Will it belong to everyone? Do you really have the time to send family disciples to station here all the time? If not, then wouldn’t the supplies for building the base be wasted? These are all problems.
That’s how the alliance worked. Not to mention that it wasn’t a true alliance, just a temporary one. Establishing a permanent base like this was certainly out of the question. Sima Wuyan understood the implication and fell silent. He realized he’d oversimplified things. Sometimes, just because you truly acted for the good of everyone wasn’t enough to guarantee their support. There were many practical issues that needed to be addressed, especially those that affected everyone’s interests. No one wanted to invest too much in attacking the Seven Universe Realms, as they saw no benefits.
While they would gain some supplies from the Wood Spirit Realm, no one had predicted how much. They believed it wouldn’t be much, otherwise the Sima family wouldn’t have given up. If they truly couldn’t obtain much from the Wood Spirit Realm, why would they waste so much? It was precisely for these reasons that all the clans opposed building a permanent base.
Seeing Sima Wuyan had stopped talking, Taoist Qingyu spoke up. “If everyone has no objections, then we’ll build a temporary base about ten thousand miles from the Ten Thousand Snake Wall. However, we won’t announce this decision until everyone arrives. I’m sure they won’t object. I’m planning to send some people to conduct reconnaissance in the next few days to see how the people of the Seven Universe Realm react. What do you all think?” Although Taoist Qingyu was the commander, he couldn’t really ignore the opinions of the other clans and families and act arbitrarily. This was clearly out of the question, so he had to consult everyone.
Everyone nodded in agreement. Taoist Qingyu glanced at them and said, “Who would like to go and conduct reconnaissance?” He glanced at them, and upon hearing his words, they all looked at each other in bewilderment. No one spoke. No one wanted to go, as they all knew they would suffer losses. After all, reconnaissance was the most dangerous kind of work, and no one wanted to take the risk, so naturally, they fell silent.
Taoist Qingyu frowned as he looked at them, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes. He actually looked down on these people. These people really disappointed him. Whenever something happened, all they thought of was hiding behind. Although they were all allies, they still hid behind when something happened, which still made him look down on them.
At this moment, Sima Wuyan said, “Let’s send someone. After all, our family has fought with people from the Seven Universes Realm here in the Wood Spirit Realm. We also have some intelligence about those people from the Seven Universes Realm. Let you go and take a look. Who knows, you might find something.”
Taoist Qingyu’s face relaxed, and then he immediately said, “Okay, then the Sima family will send someone to go. I think we should stop here today. Elder Sima, you go back and prepare, and then send someone to scout immediately. Remember, this reconnaissance is to see whether it is safe to establish a base thousands of miles away as we just said, and at the same time select a location to establish the base. After that, we can come back and there won’t be too much danger.” Sima Wuyan responded, and then Taoist Qingyu directly announced the adjournment of the meeting.
Sima Wuyan quickly returned to his family’s base. He gathered several of his generals and told them he had accepted the reconnaissance mission. He then dispatched a small team to conduct the reconnaissance. The team consisted of only a thousand men, but they were all elite soldiers selected from their own army. These men were not only extremely fast, but also highly effective and agile. Sima Wuyan’s first order was to protect themselves. If they were discovered by the Seven Universe Realms, they were to retreat immediately. Even if they didn’t discover anything, it didn’t matter; they had to protect themselves. This was the most important thing. He had determined that these people in the coalition were incapable of doing anything. They would retreat when faced with danger. In their current state, how could they possibly face the Seven Universe Realms? Are you kidding me? If they launched their attack on the Ten Thousand Snake Wall and suffered casualties, I’m afraid some of the families would immediately retreat. If they still wanted to deal with the Seven Universe Realm, they’d better not dream on. Sima Wuyan knew how powerful the Ten Thousand Snake Wall was.
After the Sima family left, Sima Wuyan couldn’t help but sigh. To be honest, he felt really uncomfortable about participating in a battle that he knew he would lose, but there was no other way; he had to participate. This was also the most frustrating thing for him.
On the other side, a disciple of the Liang family was delivering supplies to a courtyard. They were very careful, and all these supplies were paid for by the coalition forces with spirit stones, so they didn’t lose anything. However, the people of the Liang family were still careful, because there were many people in the Yuzhu Continent whom they couldn’t afford to offend, just like the courtyard where they were delivering supplies this time. The people living in this courtyard were disciples of the Wanxiang Sect, which was one of the eight major sects. Its strength was stronger than that of the Sima family, not to mention their Liang family. Precisely because of this, the disciples of the Liang family were even more careful. They kept their heads down when delivering supplies, and only one manager went to communicate with the people of the Wanxiang Sect. This was originally a small matter, after all, it was just delivering supplies.
The Liang family’s steward arrived in front of the courtyard and carefully walked to the door, gently patting the iron ring. This courtyard had originally belonged to them, but now not only had it been ceded to them, but they also had to be cautious when entering it. They dared not express any dissatisfaction, which truly made the Liang family feel aggrieved, but they could only hide their feelings, not daring to express the slightest dissatisfaction.
At this moment, the courtyard door was also opened. A cultivator in a black robe stood inside, looking at the Liang family’s steward. The Liang family’s heart tightened at the sight of this black-robed man. He sensed a strong aura of death from this person, indicating that this person was a ghost cultivator. In the Meteorite Domain, ghost cultivators were either from the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect or the Wanxiang Sect. The Wanxiang Sect meant to encompass everything. In other words, within the Wanxiang Sect, you could practice any type of cultivation technique, and there was nothing they couldn’t practice. This was why ghost cultivators existed in the Wanxiang Sect.
The Liang family steward was terrified because ghost cultivators were notoriously difficult to deal with. Their erratic tempers meant they could lead to endless retaliation if they offended them. Therefore, upon seeing the other person as a ghost cultivator, the Liang family members trembled inwardly. They immediately bowed and said, “Greetings, sir. These are supplies for you, sirs. Please accept them.” The Liang family steward was extremely cautious, even paying attention to the Wanxiang Sect disciple’s expression as he spoke.
The ghost cultivator nodded and said, “Send them in.” The Liang family steward immediately responded and directed the Liang family members to bring the supplies in. Upon seeing this, the ghost cultivator’s expression changed. He then asked, “Don’t you have any spatial equipment? And you’re sending it in like this?”
The Liang family steward immediately replied, “Your Excellency, our Liang family is only a small family. We don’t have that much spatial equipment. Please forgive us, sir.” He then bowed to the ghost cultivator.
At this moment, the ghost cultivator suddenly said, “Are you mocking me?” His expression was already somewhat grim when he said this, and his words left the Liang family’s steward somewhat puzzled. He was clearly just answering the ghost cultivator’s question, so how did it become a mockery? What was there to be mocked about? So the people of the Liang family were very puzzled, but the Liang family’s steward immediately said to the ghost cultivator: “No, how dare we mock you, sir? We absolutely have no intention of mocking you, sir. Please understand.”
At this time, the ghost cultivator was still staring at the Liang family’s steward and said: “You small families can’t afford space equipment. This should be common sense, but I didn’t know it, and I still need you to remind me. You still dare to say that this is not a mockery.”
When the Liang family’s steward heard him say this, his face couldn’t help but become even uglier. This is really called finding a pretext to accuse someone of a crime. They didn’t mean to do that at all, but they put such a big hat on their heads. How could they not feel wronged? At the same time, the Liang family members were secretly angry. The other party was clearly looking for trouble. Otherwise, why would they say so? They were really angry, but they still suppressed their anger. The Liang family manager bowed to the ghost cultivator again and said, “Please don’t misunderstand, sir. We are really not mocking you. Small families like us can also afford space equipment. It’s just that our Liang family is not strong enough, and we have just taken on the task of receiving the army, so the equipment is a bit insufficient. That’s why we haven’t prepared enough space equipment. That’s why we didn’t use space equipment to deliver supplies to you. So it’s normal for you to see that we didn’t use space equipment to deliver supplies to you. We have no intention of mocking you. Please understand.” After he said that, he bowed to the ghost cultivator again. Although he had already cursed this ghost cultivator to death in his heart, he still had to be careful when facing this ghost cultivator, because he knew very well that they could not afford to offend this ghost cultivator.
