Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 15895

Chapter 15893: Zhuge Returns to His Ancestral Home

Everyone nodded, their expressions becoming extremely solemn. Then Zhu Huoshan continued, “Furthermore, there’s the matter of strength. They can launch simultaneous attacks on over a hundred sects within the Prajna Temple domain. Many sects have several Kingdom-level experts stationed within them, meaning they have at least several hundred Kingdom-level experts. And there’s another situation, I don’t know if you’ve noticed, which is that we haven’t received any news from Prajna Temple, nor have we seen any of their people.”

Upon hearing Zhu Huoshan’s words, everyone was stunned, then their expressions changed. A cultivator immediately spoke up, “Sect Master, do you mean that not a single person from Prajna Temple managed to escape? That can’t be right.” “Other sects have had people escape, but no one from Prajna Temple has?”

Zhu Huoshan said in a deep voice, “That’s possible. Don’t forget, we’re the closest to Prajna Temple’s territory. If someone from Prajna Temple really escaped, they should be coming here. But none of them have come here. Doesn’t that say something? I think the other side must have planted a lot of people in Prajna Temple, otherwise, it’s impossible that no one from Prajna Temple has escaped.”

Everyone’s expressions became even more solemn. Zhu Huoshan then said, “But the problem now is that we can’t be sure that our enemy is Hell Gate. We also know the strength of Hell Gate.” Some of them are even weaker than Prajna Temple. How could they possibly wipe out our allied forces and then turn around and destroy Prajna Temple as well? That’s too illogical, unless something happened at Hell’s Gate that made them much stronger.”

At this moment, an elder spoke up: “There’s another possibility. What if the people we sent to Hell’s Gate really didn’t encounter any trouble? What if they weren’t attacked, and their attack was indeed very successful, but Prajna Temple was indeed destroyed? Is that also possible?”

Zhu Huoshan shook his head and said: “That possibility seems to exist, but it’s unlikely. Those people have already fled to our side. Do you think they wouldn’t send a message to the allied forces?” “If they really received the news, wouldn’t they go to Prajna Temple to check the situation? Wouldn’t Zhuge Qingsong and the others have received the news? How could they possibly tell me everything is normal?”

Hearing Zhu Huoshan’s words, everyone nodded in agreement. Zhu Huoshan then continued, “Regardless, we must prepare for battle now. My suggestion is to fully activate the sect’s defensive array and increase the number of patrolling disciples. All disciples must be ready for battle at any time. We all need to be on high alert.”

Everyone nodded in agreement. Indeed, they should prepare for battle now; it was extremely important for them.

“Secondly, we must immediately inform the other sects in the region about this matter, so they can also prepare for defense. Explain the true situation to them, tell them that something may have happened to the allied forces, and the Prajna Temple region is finished. They must be prepared for battle at any time.”

“Third, inform the people in the other regions. They must also be prepared. This time, the enemy we face is definitely not simple. If they could wipe out the Prajna Temple in one fell swoop, it means they have the ability to wipe out any one of our regions. Under these circumstances, if we are not careful, we will be in real danger.”

Everyone nodded in agreement. Zhu Huoshan’s arrangements were sound. They weren’t even sure who the enemy was. They could only say it might be the Hell Gate, but the Hell Gate clearly didn’t have that kind of strength. Under these circumstances, they naturally needed to be even more careful. Moreover, they couldn’t keep it from the other sects. They had to let the other sects know what was happening. Otherwise, if the enemy arrived and those sects were completely unprepared, it would be disastrous. Once the enemy wiped out all the other sects, even if their Fire God Sect held out, it would be useless. Could one sect withstand the enemy’s full-scale attack? That was impossible. Therefore, all sects had to know about this and work together to defend. Only in this way could they possibly withstand the enemy’s attack.

Of course, there was one situation Zhu Huoshan didn’t mention: if the enemy concentrated their forces to attack a single sect, no sect in their domain could withstand it. Even their Fire God Sect would be no match for the enemy’s attack. Therefore, Zhu Huoshan could only do everything he could, and leave the rest to fate.

The Supreme Elders and Hall Masters all understood Zhu Huoshan’s meaning, and they didn’t say anything. To be honest, they really hadn’t expected things to turn out this way. They thought that with the number of allied forces they had sent, they could completely annihilate the enemy. They never expected things to turn out this way.

Just then, a knock came at the door. Zhu Huoshan was startled, then frowned. He had instructed them not to disturb him during the meeting, yet someone still knocked. He was somewhat annoyed, so he said in a deep voice, “Come in.”

A disciple pushed open the door and entered. He bowed to Zhu Huoshan and said, “Sect Master, Elder Zhuge has returned.”

“What?” Zhu Huoshan suddenly stood up, and everyone else was also stunned. They looked at the disciple in disbelief. The disciple was somewhat afraid under the gaze of so many people, but he still spoke, “Elder Zhuge has returned.” His voice trembled slightly.

Zhu Huoshan was about to leave when he suddenly stopped and sat down again. He said in a deep voice, “Let him come here. Everyone is here.” The disciple responded and quickly left the room. With so many high-ranking officials sitting in the room, all staring at him, he, a mere disciple, felt his legs go weak. A

moment later, the knock came again. Zhu Huoshan said, “Come in.”

Zhuge Qingsong pushed open the door and walked in. He glanced at the room and smiled slightly, then clasped his hands in greeting to everyone, saying, “Greetings, Sect Master, Elders.”

Zhu Huoshan stared intently at Zhuge Qingsong and asked, “Why are you back?”

Zhuge Qingsong looked at Zhu Huoshan and smiled slightly, saying, “Judging by the time, you should have received the news by now, so I returned.”

Hearing this, Zhu Huoshan and the others were taken aback. Zhu Huoshan looked at Zhuge Qingsong and asked, “What news are you talking about?”

Zhuge Qingsong knew Zhu Huoshan was playing dumb, but he wasn’t going to play along. He smiled and said, “The news of the destruction of Prajna Temple.”

Zhu Huoshan suddenly stood up, staring intently at Zhuge Qingsong, and said, “So, you really betrayed the sect?”

Zhuge Qingsong shook his head, saying, “No, I didn’t betray the sect.”

Zhu Huoshan looked at Zhuge Qingsong, his eyes seeming to spit fire, and said in a deep voice, “You said you didn’t…” “You betrayed the sect? Then why did you come back? Why did you keep saying everything was going well there?”

Zhuge Qingsong looked at Zhu Huoshan and said in a deep voice, “Sect Master, you misunderstand. I meant that as the Supreme Elder of the Fire God Sect, I certainly didn’t betray the sect, because I’m already dead in battle, how could I betray the sect? But as Zhuge Qingsong, I am now free.”

Zhu Huoshan and the others were stunned when they heard Zhuge Qingsong say this, and then they all looked at Zhuge Qingsong with some confusion. Looking at their expressions, Zhuge Qingsong couldn’t help but smile slightly. He then said, “As the Supreme Elder of the Fire God Sect, I fought for the sect to the very last moment. Faced with certain death, I chose to surrender. Can’t that be considered dying for the sect once? Moreover, after surrendering, I didn’t betray much of the sect. I didn’t even participate in the attack on the Prajna Temple. How can that be considered betraying the sect? Furthermore, I even bought the sect a chance. How can you say I betrayed the sect?”

“Hmph!” Zhu Huoshan knew he was just making excuses the moment he heard him say that. He looked coldly at Zhuge Qingsong and said in a deep voice, “I’m quite curious, if you really fought for the sect to the last moment, how did you manage to survive until now? And you even said you bought the sect an opportunity? Was it an opportunity for the sect to surrender?”

Zhuge Qingsong smiled and said, “Sect Master is right. I did buy the sect an opportunity to surrender. You’ve heard about the Prajna Temple incident. The Prajna Temple has been completely destroyed, with very few survivors. Under these circumstances, I bought the sect an opportunity to surrender. Isn’t that doing what’s best for the sect?”

Hearing Zhuge Qingsong say this, Zhu Huoshan and the others were almost furious. Zhu Huoshan sneered, “So should I thank you for sparing my life? Dare you say you didn’t help deal with the Prajna Temple?”

Zhuge Qingsong shook his head and said, ” “Of course I dare say that, because we really didn’t even lift a finger against Prajna Temple. Sect Master, let me tell you the truth, from the very beginning, we were already caught in their trap, including Prajna Temple. Prajna Temple thought they were dealing with Hell Gate, but that wasn’t the case. In fact, Prajna Temple wasn’t targeting Hell Gate from the start, but Blood Slaughter Sect. And Blood Slaughter Sect had already taken over both Hell Gate Domain and Nine Yang Immortal Palace Domain. So they were facing the strongest fighting force from both domains. Therefore, we were already defeated from the very beginning.”

Upon hearing Zhuge Qingsong’s words, Zhu Huoshan was stunned. Then he looked at Zhuge Qingsong and said, “Could it be that the war between Hell Gate and Nine Yang Immortal Palace Domain from the very beginning was fake? Was it just to deceive Prajna Temple?”

Zhu Huoshan really couldn’t understand. If their initial war was fake, just to deceive Prajna Temple, then this plan was too well-planned! It’s worth noting that it was Prajna Temple that attacked Hell Gate first. Could it be that from that moment on, this Blood Slaughter Sect was already deceiving Prajna Temple? Was this all part of their plan?
