Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16181

Chapter 16179. The Agreement

Shang Baiyi had long anticipated Luo Xiong’s visit. He sighed softly and then said, “To be honest, I really don’t know what happened. It’s strange, you know, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect is a recognized sect, so when they approached me to buy land, I couldn’t refuse. I sold them a stinking ditch. Normally, there wouldn’t be anything wrong with that, but the next day, when the Myriad Laws Divine Sect members entered the land they bought, a white mist suddenly appeared, surrounding them. Nobody knew what they were doing inside. Then I suddenly received news that Abbot Chen, leading the Creation God Sect and some gangs from the city, attacked the Myriad Laws Divine Sect’s area, but none of them came out. The situation escalated, so I had to go.” I also spoke with Abbot Chen about whether we could refrain from attacking the Myriad Laws Cult, but he disagreed. In the end, I had no choice but to tell him that he could attack the Myriad Laws Cult, but I could only give him one day. If they still couldn’t breach the Myriad Laws Cult’s stronghold after one day, then this matter would end there. He agreed. To avoid implicating too many people, I immediately ordered the blockade of Jin Sui City. However, I didn’t expect to receive news so soon that everyone had stormed into the Myriad Laws Cult’s stronghold and never reappeared. Only then did I lift the blockade and send them the message.”

Luo Xiong frowned upon hearing this. He then recalled the news of the deaths of those sent by the cult to support Jin Sui City, and he understood why Abbot Chen had suddenly gone mad.

Thinking of this, Luo Xiong turned to look at Shang Baiyi and said, “Brother Shang, as you’ve seen, we’ve forged a grudge with the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. We can’t let this go unpunished, so we’ll definitely be taking action against them. That’s why I’m informing you beforehand.”

Upon hearing Luo Xiong’s words, Shang Baiyi frowned, then looked at Luo Xiong and said, “Brother Luo, it’s not that I’m disrespectful, but I am, after all, the city lord of Jin Sui City. Managing the entire city is my responsibility. The commotion caused by Abbot Chen was already significant enough; I even had to seal off Jin Sui City. If you attack the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, the resulting disturbance will certainly not be small.” Under these circumstances, I can no longer seal off Jin Sui City. Otherwise, if the higher-ups question me, I won’t be able to explain myself. Therefore, I can only handle this matter impartially, and I hope you will understand.”

Upon hearing this, Luo Xiong’s eyes flashed coldly as he stared at Shang Baiyi and asked, “What do you intend to do?”

Shang Baiyi narrowed his eyes at Luo Xiong’s expression, but he remained unyielding, saying, “It’s very simple. I won’t interfere with your fighting, but one thing must be made clear: you cannot harm anyone else in the city. In other words, you can fight, but you cannot implicate others in the city. If you do, then don’t blame me for being impolite.” “So? Do you agree?”

Upon hearing this, Luo Xiong nodded and said, “That’s only right, I agree.”

Shang Baiyi nodded and then said, “The criteria for judgment are quite simple. If your attack on the Wanfa Divine Sect’s stronghold affected the people in the city, then I will ask the people of your Creation Divine Sect to leave Jin Sui City. Conversely, if the people of the Wanfa Divine Sect attacked you, causing the people around the Creation Divine Temple to be affected, then I will also drive the people of the Wanfa Divine Sect out of Jin Sui City. What do you say? Do you agree?”

Upon hearing Shang Baiyi’s words, Luo Xiong couldn’t help but nod. Although he didn’t want to admit it, he had to admit that what Shang Baiyi said made a lot of sense. He said in a deep voice, ” “Alright, I can’t put Brother Shang in a difficult position. If such a thing really happens, then it’s only right that you expel our Creation God Sect from Golden Year City. I agree to this, but I don’t know if the Myriad Laws God Sect will agree.”

Shang Baiyi snorted coldly, then said, “You have to agree whether you want to or not. Brother Luo, go back first. I’ll send someone to talk to the Myriad Laws God Sect in a bit. Brother Luo, I hope you understand that the Divine Kingdom still calls the shots here. Don’t go too far.”

Luo Xiong nodded, then stood up and said to Shang Baiyi, “Alright, thank you very much, Brother Shang. Farewell.” After saying that, he clasped his hands in a fist salute to Shang Baiyi and walked out.

Watching Luo Xiong leave, Shang Baiyi said, “Someone, take this to the Myriad Laws Sect.” After saying that, he took out a piece of paper, wrote down what he had said to Luo Xiong, and then had his servant deliver it to the Myriad Laws Sect. He wanted to make sure the whole performance was convincing, so that others would think that he had no connection with the Myriad Laws Sect.

As Shang Baiyi’s servant walked towards the Wanfa Divine Sect’s headquarters with the paper, someone suddenly walked past him. The servant stopped, looking bewildered. The person who had walked past returned to the servant, retrieved the paper from his person, and after carefully examining its contents, returned it to the servant before quickly leaving. Soon after, the servant’s bewildered expression returned. He looked around, seemingly puzzled, then glanced at the paper in his hand, as if suddenly remembering something, and immediately hurried towards the Wanfa Divine Sect’s headquarters.

Meanwhile, Luo Xiong was sitting in the Temple of Creation. The man who had seen the paper in the servant’s hand was now standing in front of him, saying, “Captain, the paper in that servant’s hand contained Shang Baiyi’s warning to the Myriad Laws Sect. He told the Myriad Laws Sect that if they attacked us and harmed others in the city, he would drive them out of Jin Sui City. If we attacked them and harmed others, he would also drive us out of Jin Sui City.”

Luo Xiong nodded, then said in a deep voice, “It seems that Shang Baiyi really has nothing to do with this matter. It was Abbot Chen and the others who discovered that all the people the sect sent to support them had died here. They were worried that the sect would punish them, so they launched a full-scale attack on the Myriad Laws Sect. However, their strength was no match for the Myriad Laws Sect, so they all died at their hands. It seems that the Myriad Laws Sect’s fighting power is indeed very strong.”

The other man nodded, then looked at Luo Xiong and said, “Captain, what should we do now?”

Luo Xiong said in a deep voice, “Do we have a barrier array?”

The man was taken aback, then nodded and said, “Yes, Captain, what do you want to do?”

Luo Xiong said in a deep voice, “We can’t disrespect Shang Baiyi, otherwise we’ll be offending the Shang family. Moreover, Shang Baiyi now represents the Divine Kingdom. If we really don’t give him face, then people from other cities probably won’t give us face either. So we must be prepared. Tonight we’ll attack the territory of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, but before we attack, we’ll use a barrier array to seal off the territory of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, and then we’ll attack. That way, it won’t affect others.”

The man quickly agreed, and Luo Xiong continued, “Alright, you can go and rest now. It’s not long before nightfall. We still have an operation tonight.” The man agreed, then bowed to Luo Xiong and left the room.

On the other hand, Shang Baiyi was actually still worried about Luo Xiong and his group, so he kept an eye on their situation to see what Luo Xiong was planning to do.

Until nightfall, Luo Xiong and his group remained inactive. Shang Baiyi assumed they wouldn’t make a move that day, but to his surprise, they acted as soon as it was Hai hour (9-11 PM). They flew directly from the Temple of Creation towards the headquarters of the Myriad Laws Sect.

The headquarters was still shrouded in white mist, and no one knew what was inside. Luo Xiong and his group flew above the mist, looking down at it, and frowned. Luo Xiong immediately asked, “This mist is strange. Is there a magic array inside?”

They hadn’t come in large numbers, only fifty people, but these fifty were actually a team—a rather powerful team from the Temple of Creation. Luo Xiong was the captain. Their team had a diverse mix of skills: some were adept at poison, some at magic arrays, and some at intelligence gathering. That’s why Luo Xiong asked this question.

The next moment, one of the men following Luo Xiong glanced at the white mist and said, “This is a magic array, probably an illusion array. It seems our people have fallen for their trick. This illusion array can also be transformed into a killing array; it’s extremely powerful.”

Luo Xiong frowned and asked, “Can it be broken?”

The man examined the white mist carefully and then said, “Yes, but you need to use array-breaking talismans. Use them from eight directions simultaneously to break the array.”

Luo Xiong asked in a deep voice, “How many array-breaking talismans do we have?”

The man replied, “Thirty more.”

Luo Xiong said, “That’s enough. Let’s use the array-breaking talismans to break their array, and then kill everyone inside. Oh, and first set up a protective barrier array so it doesn’t affect anyone else.” “Otherwise, it will put Shang Baiyi in a difficult position.” The man responded, then moved, circling the area shrouded in white mist. The area wasn’t very large, only about five acres in total. He quickly placed the array talismans outside the area. After finishing, he flicked his hand, and several array flags flew out, scattering in all directions before being planted directly in the ground. The man then formed hand seals, casting several incantations into the array flags. He then said in a deep voice, “Rise!” With his voice, a transparent, earthen-yellow light shield immediately enveloped the area. After completing all this, the man moved and returned to Luo Xiong’s side, saying, “Captain, it’s done.”
