Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 15931

Chapter 15929 Two Years

Standing outside the mine, Xiang Qiao felt as if he had returned from another world. He had been a miner here before, but now he was back as a supervising disciple. It was truly amazing.

After a moment of reflection, Xiang Qiao walked directly into the mine. Ye Zhen and the others had been watching closely. As soon as they saw Xiang Qiao arrive, they immediately surrounded him. Xiang Qiao looked at them and smiled, saying, “Everyone, are you surprised that I’m here? I received this mission, so I came back immediately.”

Hearing Xiang Qiao’s words, Ye Zhen and the others were finally relieved. Ye Zhen said, “I really didn’t expect it to be you. But it’s good that you’re here; it’s much better than anyone else. Now you’re an outer disciple of the sect. Tell me, what should we do here at the mine from now on?”

Xiang Qiao… He said in a deep voice, “Just keep things the same as before. If anyone else wants to break through to the Qi level, let them leave early, then let the new one in, just like before. Chen Feng did a pretty good job before, but who could have imagined that he would suffer a qi deviation? I even dared to ask the god before, and the god said that when Chen Feng received his reward, nothing happened. The reason he suffered a qi deviation was because he suffered a qi deviation while cultivating after receiving the reward.”

Ye Zhen and the others nodded, and Ye Zhen also said, “We also asked the god, and the god said the same thing. It seems that’s really the case.” “Anyway, now that Chen Feng is dead, you’re in charge here. We can finally cultivate in peace.”

Xiang Qiao nodded, then looked at Ye Zhen and asked, “Old Ye, how’s your child?”

Ye Zhen immediately smiled and replied, “He’s doing great. He’s already joined the outer sect and has been introduced to the main hall.”

Xiang Qiao smiled and said, “Good, that’s wonderful! From now on, those of us who came from this mine will definitely have a place in the sect. With them looking out for each other, our power will surely grow stronger.”

Everyone nodded, their faces beaming with excitement. Seeing their expressions, Xiang Qiao smiled slightly and said, “Alright, I’ll go to the small building to tidy up first. No matter what, I’ll be living there from now on, and I can’t let the sect see any flaws.”

Everyone nodded, and then Xiang Qiao went directly to the small building. From today onwards, he officially took over the mine. Although Xiang Qiao’s strength was relatively strong now, it wasn’t because he received more rewards than the others, but because he was still young, and his talent and potential were stronger than theirs. That’s why he had cultivated to the level of “Power” in a short time. To be honest, his situation was even better than Chen Feng’s.

The mine finally returned to complete peace. About ten days later, several more people left the mine. They were also about to break through to the “Power” level, but they left earlier than Xiang Qiao and the others. Xiang Qiao and the others left when they were about to break through. After they left, they broke through to the “Power” level in less than a month and then joined the sect.

Those who left this time will need at least six months to break through to the next level. This was Xiang Qiao’s intention; letting them leave sooner would prevent anyone from associating them with the mine, ensuring the safety of most people there.

Leaving the mine didn’t mean they would be without income; they could still do other work without hindering their cultivation. So, letting them leave was normal.

Time passed quickly, and two years went by. Several groups of people had come and gone from the mine. Ye Zhen and his group had all left. However, the positions of the managing disciples remained under the control of people like Ye Zhen. And since no one else had died from cultivation deviation in the past two years, they had long forgotten about it.

However, on this day, the outer sect of Qinglan Sect received news again that another outer sect disciple’s jade token had shattered. They immediately sent people to investigate and discovered that the disciple was quite old when he joined the sect. His reason for joining was very simple: he had cultivated to the Shi level and then joined the sect. The cause of his death was also simple: he died from qi deviation.

Originally, this was just a minor matter, but when the elders of the outer sect of Qinglan Sect saw the words “qi deviation,” they couldn’t help but think of Chen Feng. Chen Feng was the only person in Qinglan Sect to die from qi deviation in recent years. Moreover, Chen Feng died because he practiced a technique that overdrawn his life force, so the outer sect elders had a deep impression of Chen Feng. Therefore, upon seeing that another disciple had died from qi deviation, they immediately dispatched disciples from the Enforcement Hall to bring the deceased’s body back to the outer sect.

After the body was brought back, they immediately examined it. Upon seeing the body, their expressions changed drastically. They discovered that this outer sect disciple’s cause of death was exactly the same as Chen Feng’s. One person dying in this way could be considered an accident, but now another person had died in the same manner. This was no accident; there must be something wrong.

The outer sect elder immediately went to the sect headquarters to request an audience with the sect leader. The sect leader of the Qinglan Sect, named Zuo Han, upon hearing that it was an outer sect elder requesting an audience, immediately led the person into his study, where he was working.

The outer sect elder entered Zuo Han’s study and immediately bowed to him, saying, “Greetings, Sect Master.”

Zuo Han nodded and said, “No need for formalities, sit down. Tell me, what is it?”

The outer sect elder immediately spoke, “Sect Master, there is a very important matter to report. In the past two years, two outer sect disciples have died from qi deviation. We have examined their bodies, and they both died from overdrawing their life force. Originally, their talent was mediocre. One of them, although originally an outer sect disciple, had not reached the Qi level despite years of cultivation. One day, he suddenly broke through to the Qi level, but died less than a year later. At the time of his death, his strength had reached the Royal Chariot level. The other was not originally an outer sect disciple; he was just an ordinary person. I had never heard of him cultivating diligently, but suddenly one day, he broke through directly to the Qi level and joined the sect. This time, he also died from qi deviation, and he too overdrawn his life force. I believe the appearance of these two people is definitely abnormal; there is a possible reason…” “A cultivation method that overdraws one’s life force is circulating among ordinary people. If that’s true, it’s extremely dangerous.”

Zuo Han frowned upon hearing this and said, “Such a thing exists? Have you investigated carefully whether there’s any connection between the two of them?”

The elder replied, “I have. They didn’t have any prior interaction, but the first outer disciple who died took on a job guarding a mine, and the second disciple who died was a miner at that mine. Not long after the first disciple’s death, that disciple broke through to the Qi level and joined the sect. So I think the problem might lie with that mine.”

Zuo Han frowned and said, “A mine? A mine has such a secret? Well, send someone to that mine to see what’s going on there. Go secretly, don’t alert them.”

The elder agreed, and Zuo Han waved his hand. The elder then left, and Zuo Han resumed dealing with the affairs of the Qinglan Sect, not giving this matter much thought.

After returning, the outer sect elder immediately dispatched someone secretly to the mine. The miners there were completely unaware of this, so they were caught off guard.

The Qinglan Sect disciple, upon arriving at the mine, didn’t contact anyone there but instead remained hidden outside, carefully observing the situation inside.

Everything seemed normal at the mine; during the day, you could hardly see anyone. Only at night would the miners emerge from their caves, clean themselves, chat together, and then return to their rooms to rest.

The disciple, of course, couldn’t see anything amiss. In fact, the miners themselves were worried about their secret being discovered, so they no longer worshipped the gods in their rooms; they had moved their worship to the mine shafts.

After years of excavation, the mines here have become incredibly complex. Aside from the miners working there, no one knows what the mines are like. Therefore, they believe that placing the statues there is the safest option. Even if someone investigates, finding the statues in the mines would be nearly impossible. So, the miners only emerge from the mines after finishing their work and offering prayers to the gods. This is why the outer disciple of the Qinglan Sect didn’t notice anything unusual.

Furthermore, after Chen Feng’s accident, to ensure the Qinglan Sect wouldn’t miss anything, Ye Zhen and his group spearheaded a decision: after leaving the mines, absolutely no one is allowed to mention the gods. They can chat about everyday things, but no one can discuss the gods.

And this was indeed handled very well. Even those who came to the mine later didn’t break the agreement. Everyone kept it in mind, and after leaving the cave, they never mentioned the incident again. They quickly developed another habit: during their evening chats, they would discuss cultivation. They would share their progress, the process they had encountered, and any problems they had faced, then work together to find solutions.

So now the atmosphere at the mine is excellent. After leaving the cave, they no longer mention the incident; instead, they sit together and discuss cultivation. If anyone encounters a problem, they discuss solutions together. It’s a very positive atmosphere.
