Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16259

Chapter 16257. The Acropolis

“Absolutely not! We did so much before, and the royal family didn’t touch us. But as soon as we allied with the sects, the royal family immediately turned against us. And have you forgotten what His Majesty said? His Majesty said that the sects are our common enemy. If we allied with the sects now, it would definitely anger His Majesty, and he might directly deal with us then.” Wan Hai immediately objected; he absolutely would not agree.

Hearing Wan Hai’s words, everyone felt it made sense, so they stopped talking. One of the family heads spoke up, “Then we can only rely on ourselves to deal with the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. It seems that all we can do now is to have everyone strengthen their defenses; there’s no other way.”

Everyone nodded. Wan Hai looked at everyone and then said in a deep voice, “Everyone, go back and prepare. Also, inform those families who attacked the Myriad Laws Divine Sect earlier to be careful.” Everyone responded, then stood up and turned to leave.

Meanwhile, Zhao Hai was also talking to Xu Ying. Looking at her, he said, “Remember this: our next step is to attack those powerful families, especially those that attacked us before. We must deal with them. After that, we’ll negotiate with the powerful family alliance. The core message is clear: we want to build temples throughout the Divine Kingdom, and they can’t attack us without cause anymore. We want peaceful coexistence. If they want to fight, we can fight; if they want peaceful coexistence, we can peacefully coexist.”

Xu Ying and the others responded. Zhao Hai continued, “After dealing with those powerful families, our next…” “Our target is those sects. Chang Jun and his group are dealing with them covertly, while we’re going to do it openly. Didn’t those sects previously join those aristocratic families against us? It wouldn’t be right if we didn’t retaliate. So we must attack those sects and show them our power. Besides, doing this will also attract everyone’s attention. Everyone will be watching; they won’t suspect that Chang Jun and his group are behind it all.”

Xu Ying and the others nodded again. Zhao Hai continued, “We’ve been preparing these past few days. We’ll take care of each aristocratic family one by one.” Xu Ying and the others responded again.

Then Zhao Hai waved his hand, and Xu Ying left Zhao Hai’s room. After Xu Ying left, Zhao Hai moved swiftly, and the next moment he appeared in Chang Jun’s office.

Chang Jun was currently in a sect, which had now become the Blood Slaughter Sect. When Zhao Hai appeared before him, Chang Jun was startled, then immediately stood up and bowed, saying, “Young Master.”

Zhao Hai nodded and asked, “I’ve come to see what you’re doing. How’s it going? How’s the progress?”

Chang Jun immediately invited Zhao Hai to sit down before replying, “Progress is going smoothly, but it’s a bit slow. After all, there are just too many sects in the Divine Kingdom, and it’s giving me a real headache.”

Zhao Hai thought for a moment and then asked, “What’s your current approach? Are you slowly pushing forward, taking down city by city, and then eliminating all the sects surrounding each city? Is that right?”

Chang Jun nodded, “Yes, that’s exactly it. That’s how sects have always operated, so this time we’re doing the same.”

Zhao Hai nodded, “This approach isn’t necessarily wrong, but it’s not necessarily right either. We’re in the Divine Kingdom now, and although there are many cities here, each…” “A city is a gathering place for various forces. To take a city, we need to prepare for a long time to ensure there are no problems, which will also delay our attack speed.”

Chang Jun nodded and said, “That’s right. Even some small cities have many forces, such as small families, city lords, the military, and the industries of various forces. All these forces gather in those cities, making the situation in the city very complicated. Moreover, whether it is a large family or a small family, they will prepare some secret passages and other places when they are in the city. If something happens, they will think about escaping through the secret passages. If we want to attack a city, we must first find out all of these things, then block them all, and then concentrate our forces to take the city. The preparation time is indeed very long.”

Zhao Hai said in a deep voice, “We must hurry up. It’s not that we are in a hurry, but this kind of attack is too slow. Our original method is very good, but it is not suitable for the Divine Kingdom. You have been here in the Divine Kingdom for so long, haven’t you noticed any problems?”

Chang Jun looked at Zhao Hai with some confusion and asked, “What does Young Master mean?”

Zhao Hai said in a deep voice, “Although the Divine Kingdom is said to have several major forces, such as the royal family, the military, the aristocratic family alliance, and the sect alliance, let’s leave the royal family and the military aside for now and talk about the aristocratic family alliance and the sect alliance. Have you noticed that both the aristocratic family alliance and the sect alliance have one thing in common? That is, these two alliances are all controlled by the strongest aristocratic families or sects. The ordinary aristocratic families or some small aristocratic families sometimes don’t even have the qualifications to sit at the table. Some small aristocratic families are wiped out, and they don’t even cause any waves. What does this mean?”

Chang Jun wasn’t stupid. He immediately understood what Zhao Hai meant. He immediately asked, “Young Master, are you saying that no one cares about the lives of those small aristocratic families or small sects?”

Zhao Hai nodded and said, “That’s right. There really aren’t many people who care about the lives of those small aristocratic families or small sects.” “Unless there’s a compelling reason to care about them, like using their deaths for political gain, few people really care about their demise. On the contrary, their elimination frees up considerable resources, which will become food for others. Why don’t the major families and sects care about these smaller families and sects? The reason is quite simple: these smaller families and sects are weak and disunited, so of course, they don’t need to be cared for.”

Chang Jun understood Zhao Hai’s meaning and immediately said, “I understand, young master. You mean that although those smaller families and sects seem to be in the family alliance and sect alliance, they’re just nominally in it. Do the major sects and families really care about them? Actually, they don’t care at all. This is our opportunity!”

Seeing that he understood, Zhao Hai smiled and said, “That’s right, this is our opportunity. Those smaller families and sects are indeed very weak.” But what if they really unite? Would they still be weak? No, not at all. But no one has ever truly united them. The aristocratic alliance and the sect alliance have never truly valued them, which is why they haven’t tried to unite them. However, if we turn them all into our own people, we will gain a tremendous strength. What they don’t value, we value. When they finally want to truly unite these forces, they will find that those people have all become ours. At that time, even if they want to fight us, they probably won’t have the qualifications.” Chang

Jun nodded. Zhao Hai looked at him and smiled slightly, saying, “You’ve learned a lot from Wen Hai over the years, but you’ve never been able to stand on your own. Now that everything here is in your hands, you’re being a bit conservative. What are you afraid of? Even if we immediately go to war with the Divine Kingdom, we will be the ones who win in the end. There’s nothing to worry about, so there’s no need to worry.” “Be careful everywhere.”

Chang Jun replied somewhat embarrassedly. He was indeed being overly cautious. Zhao Hai smiled slightly at Chang Jun’s expression and then asked, “By the way, how are those people from the Creation God Sect doing?”

Chang Jun seemed to suddenly remember something and immediately replied, “By the way, young master, I was just about to tell you about this. It turns out the Creation God Sect has more than just a few people; they have quite a few. And those people aren’t here in the Divine Kingdom, but in the garrison cities outside the Divine Kingdom.”

Zhao Hai nodded upon hearing this. He had thought of this. The Divine Kingdom continent was an enormous continent, but it wasn’t just that. Outside the Divine Kingdom continent, there were some garrison cities, each the size of a normal continent in other domains. These continents were also inhabited. These continents were relatively independent, but because they were too close to the Divine Kingdom, they had to obey the orders of the Divine Kingdom. Of course, under normal circumstances, the Divine Kingdom wouldn’t give them orders; they were independent entities.

These continents are called acropolises because they weren’t originally outside the Divine Kingdom Continent. Instead, during the Divine Kingdom Continent’s most powerful period, many experts from the continent moved them from other places, placing them like satellites around it. The purpose of this was to protect the Divine Kingdom Continent should an enemy attempt to attack from the outside. Even if they couldn’t stop the enemy’s attack, they would still serve as an early warning system. That’s why these continents are called acropolises.

Previously, the Creation God Cult was the state religion of the Divine Kingdom, and the Divine Kingdom allowed them to preach. The City of the Creation God Cult had always maintained contact with the Divine Kingdom. Although the Divine Kingdom’s management of the City of the Creation God Cult was not very strict, their influence over the Divine Kingdom was still enormous. It was precisely because of this that Zhao Hai had long suspected that the Creation God Cult would definitely preach in the City of the Creation God Cult. They must have people in the City of the Creation God Cult, and their influence there might even be greater than it was in the Divine Kingdom. After all, the Creation God Cult had some reservations in the Divine Kingdom, but in the City of the Creation God Cult, they had far fewer reservations.
