Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16019

Chapter 16017. Mission

What is the most fundamental thing for a cultivator? The answer is actually quite simple: strength. The most fundamental thing for a cultivator is strength. If you have strength, you have everything. If you don’t have strength, needless to say, you will lose everything. This is the cruelest truth of the cultivation world.

Good and evil are actually defined by people. If you defeat your enemy, then you are righteous; if you lose, then you are evil. If the demonic sects one day defeat the righteous sects, then they will no longer be called demonic sects; they will be called holy sects. If one day the righteous sects lose, then they will no longer be called righteous sects; they will be called evil sects. You cannot use your own values to evaluate the cultivation world; that is meaningless. This world is inherently like this; good and evil can sometimes be switched at will.

Yang Qingyu sat in his room, pondering Yang Dingtian’s words. He hadn’t had much direct contact with Yang Dingtian; most of the time, he’d only heard rumors about him. Yang Dingtian was a genius, the beloved grandson of the Yang family, the future pillar of the clan. He was said to be arrogant, distant from the family’s disciples, and not very close to anyone.

Having heard these rumors many times, Yang Qingyu had formed a mental image of Yang Dingtian: young, handsome, aloof, arrogant, even somewhat haughty.

But after meeting Yang Dingtian today, he discovered that Yang Dingtian was different from the legends. He wasn’t arrogant at all. His behavior stemmed from his complete focus on cultivation. He was a martial arts fanatic; in his eyes, nothing was more important than training. Human relationships and worldly concerns were a waste of his time; his greatest value was cultivation.

Yang Dingtian’s approach was actually the most correct one. The Yang family could provide him with the best cultivation resources and environment. Under such circumstances, it would be truly excessive if he were to focus on other things. Therefore, Yang Dingtian devoted all his energy to cultivation, which led to his current achievements.

Yang Qingyu was somewhat envious of Yang Dingtian, and at the same time, he was even more jealous of him. Yang Dingtian was able to obtain everything from the family, and even under the family’s full support, he could still maintain such purity, which was extremely rare. These were all things that Yang Qingyu wanted but could not obtain.

Thinking of this, Yang Qingyu couldn’t help but let out a long sigh, and then suddenly smiled slightly, because he thought of his god of jealousy. Heaven was fair to him; Yang Dingtian had great talent, but he had a god of jealousy. Although Yang Dingtian was now a King City-level expert, he had also reached the Palace-level. A little over a year ago, Yang Dingtian was a cloud in the sky, and he was mud on the ground. But now? Yang Dingtian might be the sun in the sky, and he would no longer be mud on the ground, but the bright moon. Sooner or later, he would become the sun, and Yang Dingtian would become the moon. Their positions would definitely be reversed, they definitely would.

Thinking of this, Yang Qingyu immediately resumed his cultivation for the day. Of course, his first task was to think about Yang Dingtian, constantly accumulating his jealousy.

At the same time, Yang Qingyu was also thinking about how to make more people jealous of him. Thinking of this, Yang Qingyu couldn’t help but frown. Having reached the position of a core disciple, ordinary things could no longer make the other disciples jealous of him. For example, if he went out on a pursuit mission, the core disciples wouldn’t be jealous of him; they might even think he was foolish, because in their eyes, a core disciple shouldn’t be foolishly doing such a pursuit mission—the rewards were too low.

So how could he arouse their jealousy? Yang Qingyu thought for a moment and decided that he could approach it from two angles. First, he could increase his reputation and make himself famous among the core disciples, so that they would discover that his cultivation speed was faster than theirs. Second, he could visit Yang Dingtian more often. Yang Dingtian was a unique figure among the core disciples, and although he usually didn’t pay much attention to others, he had told Yang Qingyu today that he could visit him frequently to chat. Yang Qingyu could take advantage of this opportunity to visit Yang Dingtian more often, which would be enough to make the core disciples envious and jealous of him.

Thinking of this, Yang Qingyu came up with another way to enhance his reputation: completing missions. Previously, he had been relatively discreet when undertaking assassination missions, but now he felt there was no need to be so cautious. He was a core disciple, and a member of the Yang family at that. Even if someone discovered something wrong with him, they wouldn’t dare investigate him easily. He was certain that the Yang family was now treating him as a key figure in their cultivation, even grooming him to be another Yang Dingtian. Given his current cultivation speed, becoming a kingdom-level expert was practically a certainty. Therefore, the Yang family couldn’t possibly ignore him. Under these circumstances, it would be impossible for anyone to do anything to him; the Yang family wouldn’t allow it. So, he didn’t need to be low-key anymore, just like Yang Dingtian. Yang Dingtian didn’t need to be low-key because no one dared to touch him.

Most importantly, Yang Qingyu could gain the power of others’ envy through assassination missions, which was the most crucial thing for him.

Thinking of this, Yang Qingyu immediately stood up and flew directly to the Core Disciple Service Center. Upon entering, a manager immediately approached him, bowing and asking, “Junior Brother Yang, is there something you need?” Yang Qingyu nodded and said,

“I’d like to do some missions. Is that alright? “

The manager immediately replied, “Of course, that’s fine. What kind of missions do you want, Junior Brother?”

Yang Qingyu said, “The missions I want are very simple: pursuit missions. The sect has many missions to hunt down rogue cultivators who have committed offenses within our sect. I’d like to take on those missions. Is that alright?”

The manager immediately said, “Sure, of course. Although these tasks are for inner disciples, they aren’t capable of completing them. If you really want to take on these tasks, there’s no problem at all; the sect will be very happy.”

Yang Qingyu nodded and said, “Okay, then I’ll take this task. Give me all the sect’s pursuit missions.”

The manager nodded, then said in a deep voice, “Alright, I’ll arrange it now.”

Yang Qingyu nodded, then sat down and waited for the manager to make the arrangements. A moment later, the steward returned with a thick notebook and handed it to Yang Qingyu, saying, “Junior Brother Yang, this contains all the assassination missions from the sect over the past twenty years. Take a look.”

Yang Qingyu nodded, took the notebook, glanced at it, and then turned to the steward, asking, “Can I take this back to review?”

The steward immediately replied, “Of course, you can. Just take it back, Junior Brother. Once you’ve completed the mission, come back to me to hand it in. We keep these mission record books on file.” Yang Qingyu nodded, then took the notebook and left.

Yang Qingyu now realized the advantages of being a core disciple. Inner disciples could never take mission records back to their own caves, but core disciples could. This was because, as long as core disciples didn’t die, they would inevitably become high-ranking members of the sect. They had special privileges; in fact, they were all potential high-ranking members of the sect. Therefore, no one would offend them, and giving them certain privileges was only fair.

After returning to his cave with the booklet, Yang Qingyu immediately entered the space and asked, “Lord God, could I ask for the locations of more people on the kill list at once?” Yang Qingyu felt that asking one by one was too troublesome, and he also felt it was a waste to use one reward to only get one name. “

Agreed!” The statue of the God of Jealousy still only answered with one word.

Hearing this, Yang Qingyu was relieved and said, “Alright, then I’ll use one reward to get the locations of the most people on the kill list.”

“Agreed!” The statue still only said one word, and the next moment it withdrew from the space. He then felt a large passage of text appear in his mind. He immediately began to organize the text, and after reading it, he discovered that this passage contained the specific locations of fifty rogue cultivators.

Upon seeing this, Yang Qingyu couldn’t help but smile bitterly. He felt he had really lost out big time, because he had been using one reward to exchange for one person’s position. Now it seemed that one reward could exchange for fifty positions. Hadn’t he been losing a lot of money? At the same time, he couldn’t help but curse the God of Jealousy as a cunning merchant. He could clearly use one reward to exchange for fifty positions, but when he said he would use one reward to exchange for one position, the God of Jealousy hadn’t even reminded him. It was really too insidious.

But no matter what, what’s done is done, so there’s no point in thinking about it anymore. He should just go do the mission. With that thought, Yang Qingyu directly took the teleportation array and left Shangyang Sect. This time, he didn’t play any tricks. He directly took the teleportation array to the sect where his target was located. The reason he came to this sect first was because there were five rogue cultivators on the kill list in this sect. In other words, by coming to this sect, he could complete five missions.

After arriving at the sect, Yang Qingyu’s first step was to register at the outer hall of the sect and explain to the sect members why he had come. After all, he was going to take action against those rogue cultivators later, and it would be disrespectful not to inform the sect members beforehand. Therefore, he had to register first before taking any action. Although his Shangyang Sect was not afraid of any sect in this area, he didn’t need to be too arrogant. He still needed to maintain proper decorum. He would abide by the rules of the other sect. If the other sect still dared to make things difficult for him after that, then it would be their fault.
