Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 15978
Chapter 15976: The Flame Pirates
“You mean he refused? He still wants to cultivate in the sect? Heh, this guy is really quite confident. But that’s fine too, it’ll be easier to deal with him this way. Although he’s an inner disciple, he still needs to do missions. Just let me know what mission he takes on next time.”
Wu Changling was talking to the inner sect elder in charge. The inner sect elder in charge didn’t look too good either. Wu Lingfeng had rejected him to his face and even directly confronted him; it was no wonder he was in a bad mood.
However, the inner sect elder in charge didn’t say anything after Wu Changling said this, only nodding. Wu Changling continued, “In any case, thank you very much, Elder Yu. I will remember your kindness.”
Elder Yu’s expression softened, and he smiled, saying, “Nephew Wu, you’re too kind. I haven’t been of much help. If you ever need my help in the future, please just say so. I will definitely help if I can.”
Wu Changling nodded, “Alright, if anything really happens in the future, I will definitely ask for your help.”
Elder Yu also smiled. Wu Changling’s words were enough. Although he was an inner sect elder in charge, his power was actually not that great. Wu Changling’s master, on the other hand, was the head of the Transmission Hall. Wu Changling’s future status would definitely be higher than his. It was enough that Wu Changling owed him a favor.
When Wu Changling returned to his room, his face darkened. He truly hadn’t expected dealing with Wu Lingfeng to be so difficult. However, he knew he couldn’t rush things; he could wait patiently. He wanted to see what Wu Lingfeng would do next, and then he would figure out a way to deal with him.
That night, Wu Lingfeng indeed received many rewards while cultivating. This led him to discover a pattern: it seemed the stronger the person he angered, the more rewards he received. This was good news for him; at least he knew what he should do next.
The next day, Wu Lingfeng returned to Area Seven. He had been expelled from Area Seven before, but now he was an inner disciple, and the people in Area Seven had no say in his affairs. So, Wu Lingfeng came to Area Seven simply to provoke people. He didn’t need to do anything; just strolling around Area Seven was enough to annoy many people. He decided that from now on, he could go there every day, wanting to make sure they saw him but couldn’t do anything about it.
Sure enough, Elder Lu also learned of Wu Lingfeng’s arrival in Area Seven. He knew why Wu Lingfeng had come, and although he hadn’t met with him, he was still furious. He genuinely found Wu Lingfeng incredibly infuriating, but he couldn’t do anything about it.
After returning to his courtyard, Wu Lingfeng felt even better. He then went to the Inner Sect Disciple Management Office. He hadn’t accepted any missions. As an Inner Sect Disciple, he only needed to complete a few sect missions each year. He could choose to accept other missions or not. Of course, accepting missions meant higher income, while not accepting them meant receiving sect benefits. Frankly, these benefits were useless to him, as Wu Lingfeng’s cultivation relied entirely on the rewards from the God of Wrath. Therefore, sect benefits were secondary for him.
The reason he came to the Inner Sect Disciple Management Office was to let the Inner Sect Elder know he was there. He wanted the Elder to keep an eye on him but be powerless to do anything about it.
Wu Lingfeng had now figured it out. This Inner Sect Elder wouldn’t have sought him out for no reason; Wu Changling was definitely involved. He already knew Wu Changling’s identity, and someone of Wu Changling’s status would be incredibly easy to deal with. Therefore, Wu Lingfeng was certain that Wu Changling was behind the Inner Sect Elder’s attempt to get him appointed as an administrator. His visit to the Inner Sect Management Office was to let the Elder know he was there every day, yet be unable to do anything about it.
Elder Yu did know about this, and he was indeed very angry, but he was also powerless to do anything. Although he could manage the Inner Sect disciples, frankly, he couldn’t bring himself to expel an Inner Sect disciple without cause.
About ten days passed in this way. On this particular day, while Wu Lingfeng was at the Inner Sect Management Office, reviewing the tasks on the wall, a piercing sound suddenly rang out. Upon hearing this, Wu Lingfeng was startled, his expression immediately changing. He rushed out of the Inner Sect Management Office building, recognizing it as the sect’s alarm. This alarm only sounded when the sect was under attack. Could someone be attacking the sect? Wu Lingfeng’s expression completely changed.
Just as he flew out of the Inner Sect Management Office building, he saw countless people already taking flight. He immediately followed suit. At that moment, countless points of light appeared in the sky. Seeing these points of light, Wu Lingfeng immediately guessed that there must be an invasion by external enemies. This made Wu Lingfeng’s face turn grim. However, he still prepared for battle, while simultaneously wondering who could be attacking them.
The next moment, a huge pattern suddenly appeared in the sky. This pattern was very strange; it was a giant skull with two red flames in its eyes. Upon seeing this pattern, Wu Lingfeng was first stunned, then his expression changed drastically. He already knew who was attacking their sect: the Flame Pirate Gang. Pirates existed
in their area, and the Flame Pirate Gang was the largest among them. This pirate gang was incredibly powerful, rumored to have a kingdom-level expert at its helm. No one knew how this powerful pirate gang came to be; in any case, it appeared and attacked many sects. The members of this pirate gang were ruthless, and each time they attacked, the sect would suffer heavy losses. Unexpectedly, this time they had come to attack their Qingyang Sect.
Qingyang Sect wasn’t a major sect, but it was still a mid-tier sect with kingdom-level experts. Previously, the Flame Pirate Gang had only attacked small sects; they’d never heard of them attacking a mid-tier sect before. He was astonished that the Flame Pirate Gang had targeted them this time.
However, seeing the Flame Pirate Gang members charging in, he gritted his teeth and flicked his hand. In the next instant, countless wind blades formed a massive whirlwind, attacking the Flame Pirate Gang. This move startled everyone else, as they hadn’t yet attacked the Flame Pirate Gang. Wu Lingfeng’s attack seemed more like a provocation to them.
Wu Lingfeng, however, paid no heed to the dangers. After casting a spell at the Flame Pirates, he charged forward, continuously casting spells as he went. He was seeking fortune in danger; his attack on the Flame Pirates would surely anger them, and the angrier they were, the more benefits he would gain as long as he survived.
Sure enough, the Flame Pirates were furious that a mere Throne-level cultivator dared to attack them. Several of them immediately charged at Wu Lingfeng, while the Qingyang Sect members also reacted and joined the fray. The two sides quickly clashed.
When Wu Lingfeng saw that everyone else had joined the battle, he knew he had achieved his goal. At this moment, he absolutely couldn’t fight the Flame Pirates head-on; he had to ensure his survival. So, Wu Lingfeng suddenly retreated to the side. He didn’t intend to fight the Flame Pirates directly, but while retreating, he continuously attacked them with spells. His main strategy was: I can’t hurt you, but I’ll keep harassing you, making the Flame Pirates yell in anger.
Looking at their reactions, Wu Lingfeng couldn’t help but smile slightly. This was his purpose; his primary task now was to save his own life.
As Wu Lingfeng ran, he observed his surroundings. He discovered that some experts from the Qingyang Sect had already joined the battle. The Flame Pirates’ experts had also joined the fight, but he couldn’t interfere with their battles at all.
Although the Flame Pirates had attacked other minor sects in the past, plundering many valuable items from them, they were always careful in their actions. They didn’t wipe out those sects.
Looting and destroying a sect are two different things. If you only plunder, other sects might not take it too seriously, perhaps being cautious but not uniting against you. However, if you actually destroy a sect, it’s a different story. If you dare to destroy a sect, other sects will immediately unite against you, and the Flame Pirates’ good days will likely be over.
Therefore, while the Flame Pirates would plunder sects, they wouldn’t destroy them. The attack on the Qingyang Sect was no different. They stormed into the sect and immediately attacked some of its warehouses, making those their primary targets. They weren’t as interested in other areas.
Because he had discovered this, Wu Lingfeng kept his distance from the warehouses. The Flame Pirates, clearly disciplined, didn’t chase after him despite their anger, and Wu Lingfeng was temporarily safe.
But this wasn’t the end. Wu Lingfeng then turned back and attacked the Flame Pirates, striking once and then immediately running away. This infuriated the Flame Pirates; they felt Wu Lingfeng was like an annoying insect, constantly hovering around them, driving them crazy.
