Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16262

Chapter 16260: Waiting for a Rabbit to Fall into a Trap

to Fall into the Trap “Strike first is indeed a good idea, but there’s a problem. We’d like to strike first, but we can’t find any members of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. All of their temples have been destroyed, and their former headquarters was the first to be destroyed. After that, no one knows where the Myriad Laws Divine Sect members have gone. So even if we wanted to strike first, we couldn’t.” A sect leader frowned and said.

Qingxuan thought for a moment, then said, “Then let’s find them. If that doesn’t work, contact those aristocratic families. The Myriad Laws Sect has been targeting those families, and they’ll definitely want revenge. If we join forces with them, find those members of the Myriad Laws Sect, and then deal with them, they’ll be willing.”

All the sect leaders nodded. Qingxuan said in a deep voice, “I’ll contact those families. You all go and notify all the sects to search for the Myriad Laws Sect. I really don’t believe that with so many sects like ours, we can’t find the Myriad Laws Sect.”

Everyone nodded again, and then Qingxuan spoke again, “Alright, everyone go back. After you go back, notify everyone that you must dig out the members of the Myriad Laws Sect.”

Everyone responded, then they all stood up, bowed to Qingxuan, and turned to leave. After they left, Qingxuan immediately sent a letter to Wan Hai, telling him that he wanted to cooperate with Wan Hai and act together.

Wan Hai received Qing Xuan’s letter. After glancing at its contents, he replied without hesitation, stating clearly that they would resolve their grievances with the Myriad Laws Divine Sect themselves, and Qing Xuan need not worry about it. If Qing Xuan wanted to deal with the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, he should do it himself.

When Qing Xuan saw this letter, his eyes narrowed. He hadn’t expected Wan Hai to say such a thing, and he sensed something else in the letter: those aristocratic families wanted to sever ties with them.

Remembering the destruction of the Gongsun family and the five great families, Qing Xuan instantly understood Wan Hai’s meaning: these aristocratic families no longer wanted to be associated with them.

Thinking of this, Qing Xuan’s expression changed. He immediately wrote to the sect leaders of the other sects, informing them that the aristocratic families no longer wanted to cooperate with them, likely due to a warning from Gongliang Juewen. It seemed that dealing with the Myriad Laws Divine Sect would have to be done by them themselves.

The sects quickly replied to Qingxuan, informing him that they had made arrangements for everyone to search for the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. They were certain they would find it.

Qingxuan and his group were well aware that the conflict between the aristocratic families and the royal family had ended with the aristocratic families yielding. Therefore, the aristocratic families would likely agree to some conditions from the royal family and cease cooperation with them—clearly, this was one of the conditions. However, there was good news: the royal family had also informed them that each sect could select some people to serve as officials in the court. Although the number was not large, it was still much better than before.

Qingxuan and his group had long been accustomed to being suppressed by the royal family; now, they were only being prevented from associating with the aristocratic families, which was already quite good, and they were very happy.

However, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect still needed to be dealt with. They had to eliminate the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, otherwise, the sect would definitely retaliate against them in the future. They didn’t want to be passively attacked indefinitely, so they had to strike first. They believed they could definitely find the Myriad Laws Divine Sect.

The reason these members of the sect alliance are so confident is because their development strategy differs greatly from that of the aristocratic families. Aristocratic families typically operate within the city, closely connected to ordinary people. While they may have businesses outside the city, their influence there is far less than that within. Sects, however, are different.

Their power is generally concentrated outside the city. They rely on markets and industries outside the city to grow and expand. They each have their own territory, inhabited by ordinary people who are their source of new blood. Of course, they also need to recruit disciples from various cities, but generally not in large numbers. Most of the time, they recruit new members from the markets, which are mostly populated by independent cultivators rather than ordinary people.

In fact, both the royal family and those aristocratic families underestimated the influence of sects. On the surface, sects may not seem very strong, but their true influence is actually quite large, especially among rogue cultivators. If those sects were to spread the word that as long as rogue cultivators helped them attack those aristocratic families, anyone who killed a member of an aristocratic family, regardless of their strength, could join the sect, then countless rogue cultivators would attack those aristocratic families, causing them enormous losses. However, sects would not do such a thing. If they did, it would be tantamount to a complete break with the aristocratic families and the royal family. At that time, the aristocratic families and the royal family would definitely unite against them, and the military might also have to join in. Once the three parties unite, even the sects would not be able to withstand their attack.

However, if the sects didn’t use those rogue cultivators to attack the aristocratic families, but instead issued missions to those rogue cultivators, asking them to help them find people, then countless rogue cultivators would be willing to take on the missions. And those rogue cultivators go everywhere, so once they issued a mission, they didn’t believe there was anyone in the world they couldn’t find.

The sects did exactly that; they quickly issued missions to those rogue cultivators, asking them to find members of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect.

Of course, this news reached the Blood Slaughter Sect immediately. Upon hearing this news, Chang Jun’s expression changed, and he immediately informed Zhao Hai.

After receiving the news, Zhao Hai went directly to Chang Jun’s place and also summoned Xu Ying and the others for a meeting.

Once everyone arrived, Zhao Hai had Chang Jun explain the actions of the sects. After Chang Jun finished speaking, Zhao Hai asked them, “What are your thoughts on this matter?” Chang Jun said

, “We’re currently only dealing with those aristocratic families, but the sects are attacking us. This is unexpected. I’m curious why those sects are attacking us.”

Xu Ying said, “Perhaps they feel threatened. We’re attacking those aristocratic families because they attacked us before, but don’t forget, those sects were also involved in attacking us. So, they also want to attack us. They’re worried that after we deal with those aristocratic families, we’ll turn around and attack them.”

Chang Jun nodded and then said, “Then let’s strike first.” “Aren’t they already sending people to look for us? Then let’s strike first before they come looking for us, and deal with them first. I want to see what they do next.”

Zhao Hai smiled slightly and didn’t speak, but Xu Ying frowned and said, “Strike first is fine, but right now we’re attacking those aristocratic families on one hand and those sects on the other. If they join forces, we’ll be in big trouble.”

Chang Jun frowned. Although they weren’t afraid of fighting the sects and the aristocratic families at the same time, many of the sects had their people in them. If a war really broke out, they might be exposed. Even if they weren’t exposed, the commotion would be too great and would arouse Gongliang Juewen’s dissatisfaction, which would be very detrimental to their future actions. So this was indeed a problem.

The others remained silent. Zhao Hai, observing their expressions, smiled slightly and said, “Why should we attack them proactively? Can’t we just set a trap and wait for them to fall into it?”

The group was taken aback, but instantly understood Zhao Hai’s meaning. Chang Jun’s eyes lit up, and he immediately said, “That’s indeed a good idea! We can set a trap beforehand, then pretend that the sects find it. They’ll definitely attack us, and we can then give them a good beating. Where should we place the trap?” “

At the former headquarters of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, let’s set up the magic array there first, and then deliberately expose our presence. That way, we can deal with them there without arousing their suspicion. They’ll only think that our trap was very clever,” Xu Ying suggested.

Upon hearing Xu Ying’s words, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but smile. He then said, “Okay, I’ve thought of a way. Let’s do it this way.”

Everyone responded, and then Zhao Hai disappeared. After Zhao Hai disappeared, Chang Jun turned to Xu Ying and said, “Xiao Ying, this matter is entrusted to you. Just tell me if you need manpower.”

Xu Ying responded, and Chang Jun looked at him and said, “Consider this a test for you. This matter is entirely in your hands. How well you do depends on yourself.”

Xu Ying responded seriously. He understood Chang Jun’s meaning. He had been in the Divine Kingdom for quite some time, and he had already been able to handle things independently. However, he had never commanded a major battle like this before. This was a test for him. If he completed this mission well, he would truly be able to handle things independently in the future. If he didn’t complete this mission well, he would need more time to train.

Xu Ying was also very clear that this matter was an opportunity for him, so he attached great importance to it.

Chang Jun glanced at Xu Ying, then smiled and said, “Alright, go ahead and do it without worry. No matter what happens, the sect will be there for you, so don’t worry.”

Xu Ying nodded, and Chang Jun smiled and said, “Alright, go and prepare. Remember, don’t let anyone find out until you’re ready.” Xu Ying responded again, then stood up, bowed to Chang Jun, and left.
