Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 15994

Chapter 15992. Announcement

Huo Lei did not object. Although he was the gang leader, he also had to work. Such a small gang could not possibly allow a gang leader who was completely off-duty. So Huo Lei led the people down into the river first. In less than an hour, they came up from the river, but their faces were all pale and they did not look well.

Wu Lingfeng was startled and quickly went to greet Huo Lei, asking, “Boss Huo, what’s wrong? Why do you all look so pale?”

Huo Lei shook his head and then said, “You’re oversimplifying things. There are many water plants in this river, but you need to know water-based magic. Also, the water temperature is very low, so people can’t stay in it for very long. No wonder half of the people from each gang rested on the shore. After staying in the river for an hour, they were almost powerless when they first came up. If they were attacked at that time, it would be like waiting to die. So you have to be careful after you go down. Also, remember, you only need this kind of water plant.” After he finished speaking, he took out a kind of water plant. This water plant was all green and very long, with many small leaves growing on a very soft stem, which looked quite beautiful.

Wu Lingfeng and the others glanced at each other, then responded. They immediately dived into the river. Upon entering, Wu Lingfeng used a water-repelling spell, but he quickly understood Huo Lei’s meaning. Huo Lei had said the river water was very cold, and it was indeed so. Even with the spell, the water temperature was incredibly low; he felt as if he were in a frozen wasteland, a very uncomfortable feeling.

Fortunately, the water’s energy level seemed relatively good. They reached the bottom and saw vast expanses of aquatic plants, almost all the same kind Huo Lei had brought out. They immediately began gathering them. After about an hour, Wu Lingfeng and the others swam to the surface. Wu Lingfeng’s complexion was pale and ashen; the water temperature was too low, and after an hour, they were finding it unbearable.

Of course, Wu Lingfeng could endure it, but he couldn’t do that, as it would be too conspicuous. So he returned to the shore with the others. Huo Lei and the others had already recovered. Huo Lei told Wu Lingfeng and the others to stay on the shore while he led his men back down. After repeating this several times, it was getting dark. Seeing the time, Huo Lei immediately ordered everyone to return to their courtyard. After eating, Huo Lei invited Li Tong and Wu Lingfeng to the tavern. Huo Lei always made sure to take the two of them with him when he went out. This wasn’t because Huo Lei liked to show off, but because the incident with the demonic cultivators had made him wary. He was worried that there might be danger if he didn’t bring Wu Lingfeng. After all, he would have been in danger last time if it weren’t for Wu Lingfeng.

Not long after Huo Lei arrived, Boss Gong arrived as well. Huo Lei quickly invited Boss Gong to sit down, and then they started drinking together. Boss Gong also brought two other people with him. The group ate and drank happily at the table. Huo Lei asked Boss Gong some questions about harvesting aquatic plants. Boss Gong told Huo Lei that, just as he had said before, there was no competition between them and Huo Lei. The Green Wood Sect had a high demand for aquatic plants and poplar trees, so they didn’t need to compete. No matter how much aquatic plant they harvested, the Green Wood Sect would take it all. What was there to fight for? Moreover, each of them had a limit on how much aquatic plant they could harvest each day. Even if you occupied a large area, it wouldn’t matter. As long as the number of people in your gang didn’t increase, the amount of aquatic plants harvested each day wouldn’t increase. Therefore, they had no intention of competing.

Moreover, these independent cultivators’ gangs, just like the Azure Wolf Sect, don’t allow members to simply sit back and wait for their subordinates to pay them tribute. That’s unacceptable; if you did, your gang would desert the next day. These gang leaders are expected to work hard themselves, so they generally don’t expand their gangs. Expanding a gang wouldn’t earn them an extra spirit stone, so why bother?

Over the next few days, the Azure Wolf Gang gradually learned how to harvest water plants from the river. On the tenth day, Huo Lei settled the accounts, and this time their income was roughly equivalent to a month’s earnings from logging. Keep in mind, only ten days had passed; this was definitely good news for the Azure Wolf Gang, and their enthusiasm soared even higher.

About a month passed. That evening, Wu Lingfeng had finished his cultivation and was preparing to rest when suddenly a jade sword stopped in front of him. Wu Lingfeng was startled and immediately took the jade sword to read its contents. His expression turned serious.

This jade sword was given to him by Lu Yi. The jade sword said that the tavern owner had made a move. He sensed a very slight energy fluctuation in the direction of the tavern, something that had never appeared before. The energy fluctuation seemed to be the energy fluctuation of a communication array. Although the energy fluctuation was very slight, Lu Yi still sensed it.

Upon seeing this message, Wu Lingfeng immediately replied, mainly asking if he had reported this news to the sect. If so, he should wait and see what the sect’s response would be.

After replying to Lu Yi, Wu Lingfeng sat quietly in his room waiting. The communication jade sword arrived again soon. This time, Lu Yi told Wu Lingfeng that the sect had replied, that they were aware of the situation, and that they would be sending reinforcements this time, including highly skilled experts.

Wu Lingfeng read the contents of the jade sword and frowned. The sect sending reinforcements again was a good thing, but there was a problem: every time the sect sent reinforcements, he would have to maintain contact with them. Too much contact would inevitably arouse Huo Lei’s suspicion, which was not a good thing.

Thinking of this, Wu Lingfeng took out a jade slip, entered some information into it, and then took out a communication array. He placed the jade slip on the array and teleported out. However, before that, he first used a protective shield to cover himself, thus blocking the energy fluctuations of the communication array. Although the energy fluctuations of the communication array were very small, he was still worried about being discovered. Wasn’t the tavern owner unaware of this, which is why Lu Yi discovered it?

After teleporting the jade slip, Wu Lingfeng sat there quietly waiting. After a while, a jade slip was sent back from the sect. Wu Lingfeng immediately picked up the jade slip, glanced at its contents, and after seeing the contents, Wu Lingfeng’s expression relaxed. He then stood up, disregarding that it was already midnight, and went directly to Huo Lei’s door, knocking on it.

Huo Lei’s voice came immediately: “Who is it?”

Wu Lingfeng said, “Boss Huo, it’s me. I need to talk to you. Can we go inside?”

Huo Lei’s voice came: “Old Wu, come in.” Wu Lingfeng responded and pushed open the door to go inside. Huo Lei also came out of the bedroom at this time.

After the two sat down in the living room, Huo Lei looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, “Old Wu, what can’t we talk about tomorrow? Why do we have to talk about it today?” Wu Lingfeng

shook his head and said, “Boss Huo, this matter is very important. I want to tell you as soon as possible.” Actually, this matter could be discussed tomorrow, but Wu Lingfeng still felt that it was better to say it tonight because he didn’t know when something might happen, and he had to tell Huo Lei as soon as possible.

Huo Lei nodded and said, “Alright, then you speak.”

Wu Lingfeng nodded, and then he immediately used a soundproofing spell, so that only the two of them could hear what they were saying. This surprised Huo Lei even more, and he looked at Wu Lingfeng with some confusion. Wu Lingfeng looked at Huo Lei and then said, “Boss Huo, there’s something I lied to you about, and that’s my identity.” He paused here and glanced at Huo Lei.

Huo Lei looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, “I guessed it. Your strength is not weak, and you might even be stronger than me. If you hadn’t encountered some trouble, you wouldn’t have joined us. However, we need your strength, and you also need a place to stay, so I kept you here. What? Have your enemies come looking for you?”

Huo Lei was getting a little nervous by the end, and when Wu Lingfeng heard Huo Lei say this, he couldn’t help but smile bitterly and then said, “Boss Huo, you’re really mistaken. I don’t have any enemies. My identity is actually that of a sect…” “Disciple, Qingyang Sect, have you ever heard of it?”

Huo Lei was taken aback, then his expression changed. He looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, “You’re a disciple of the Qingyang Sect? Qingyang Sect? Why does that sound so familiar? By the way, isn’t it the sect that was attacked by the Flame Pirate Gang a while ago?”

Wu Lingfeng nodded and said, “Yes, I am a disciple of the Qingyang Sect. Last time, we were caught off guard and attacked by the Flame Pirate Gang. Our sect leader was very angry about this, so he formed a revenge team, selecting some disciples from the sect and sending them to other sects.” “We’ve infiltrated here because we suspect the Flame Pirate Gang has planted spies among the independent cultivators of various sects. The Revenge Team’s goal is to find these spies and see if we can discover who the Flame Pirate Gang is planning to target next. This way, we can prepare in advance and teach the Flame Pirate Gang a lesson.”

Upon hearing Wu Lingfeng’s words, Huo Lei’s expression changed. He looked at Wu Lingfeng and said, “You’re the Qingyang Sect disciple who infiltrated the Qingmu Sect? What? You discovered the Flame Pirate Gang?”

Wu Lingfeng nodded and said, “I did discover the Flame Pirate Gang. You know this person? He’s the owner of the tavern we often go to drink at. I discovered him the day we celebrated killing that demonic cultivator. He had the Flame Pirate Gang’s mark on him. Lu Yi is also from our sect. He was sent by the sect to support me. These past few days, Lu Yi has been monitoring that owner. The reason I’m telling you all this today is because tonight, that owner acted strangely. He used a communication array to contact someone, most likely the Flame Pirate Gang.”
