Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16292

Chapter 16290: Recruiting Soldiers and Buying Horses

Everyone understood his meaning. They were very clear that there were indeed people who wouldn’t agree to their peace talks with the Myriad Laws Divine Sect—the royal family. What did the royal family consider the Myriad Laws Divine Sect? Of course, they considered it a weapon. They intended to use this weapon to cut down aristocratic families and sects. Now that this weapon had reconciled with the aristocratic families, if it were to reconcile with the sects as well, then it would be useless. At that point, the royal family might even target the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. The Myriad Laws Divine Sect absolutely did not want to offend the royal family, so it wouldn’t make peace with them.

However, not making peace didn’t mean they would continue fighting indefinitely. They would eventually have to stop, which required tacit understanding between the two sides. This tacit understanding didn’t need to be spoken aloud; spoken understanding ceased to be tacit. As long as one side showed some goodwill, the other side would know. And as long as the other side didn’t intend for a fight to the death, they would also show some goodwill.

The group exchanged glances, then Qingxuan spoke up, “I think Sect Leader Wen is right. We’ve been fighting the Myriad Laws Divine Sect all this time, and this situation can’t continue indefinitely. It’s disadvantageous for us, and extremely disadvantageous for the Myriad Laws Divine Sect as well. So, why don’t we take a step back and see what the Myriad Laws Divine Sect does? If they also start to retreat, it means they understand my meaning. If they don’t retreat, it means they still want to continue fighting us. Then we can continue fighting them. I want to see just how strong they really are.”

Everyone nodded. Qingxuan continued, “We’ve only just begun…” “Back to the court, at this time, we must prioritize court affairs. The royal family won’t let us stay peacefully in court; they will definitely deal with us and continue to suppress us. We must focus more of our energy on this. The conflict with the Myriad Laws Divine Sect should be stopped if possible. Of course, stopping doesn’t mean forgetting. If we have the opportunity in the future, we will still attack them. What do you think?”

Everyone nodded. They all knew that Qingxuan’s last words were just an attempt to save face. The “opportunity to attack them in the future” was a long way off.

However, they didn’t expose him; they also needed this fig leaf. After all, they couldn’t truly be at odds with the Myriad Laws Divine Sect to the death; that would result in significant losses. Therefore, they all agreed.

Qingxuan spoke up, “Alright, it’s good that everyone agrees. If everyone agrees, then we must take action. My idea is that each of the major sects should send some Kingdom-level experts to enter those smaller sects to help them block Zhao Hai’s attack. However, this time we won’t ambush. After our people arrive at those smaller sects, they will go outside with the Kingdom-level experts from those sects and release their auras to let Zhao Hai know that there are so many Kingdom-level experts protecting those smaller sects. If he knows what’s good for him, then he must retreat. If he still doesn’t want to retreat, then let’s fight. We really don’t need to be afraid of him alone.”

Everyone was stunned when they heard him say this, but then they immediately understood Qingxuan’s meaning. Qingxuan wanted to use this method to tell Zhao Hai, “We don’t want to fight you anymore. So all the smaller sects have experts protecting them, so you shouldn’t attack.” This was a kind of goodwill gesture, meaning, “I don’t want to fight you anymore.”

This method is quite good, after all, only Zhao Hai attacked them this time, so this method is very suitable.

Everyone nodded and responded. Qingxuan said, “If everyone agrees, then let’s do it this way. After you go back, make the arrangements immediately. It’s not just about our own sect; the kingdom-level experts of the middle-level sects below can also be rearranged. We must ensure the safety of those small sects and ensure that every small sect has a kingdom-level expert.” Everyone responded, then they all stood up, bowed to Qingxuan, and turned to leave.

Qingxuan saw them out the door before going to his study. He also needed to have a good talk with the people of his sect about how to arrange the personnel of each sect. He still needed to discuss it thoroughly with the people of the sects below.

The sect alliance is actually a large alliance formed by a number of smaller alliances. The Tianxuan Sect itself has an alliance, and the sects closest to them are all members of this small alliance. They all listen to the Tianxuan Sect, which has a huge influence on them. The same is true for other large sects, which also have a huge influence on the sects surrounding them. This forms a series of small alliances, and the large sects are the leaders of these small alliances. When Qingxuan and his group hold meetings, the sect leaders who attend are actually the leaders of the various small alliances. So after they go back, they will rearrange the personnel in their small alliances. Qingxuan is the same; he also has to rearrange the personnel in his small alliance.

When the people from various sects informed the smaller sects of Qingxuan’s decision, the Blood Slaughter Sect naturally received the news immediately. After receiving the news, Zhao Hai smiled slightly, and then he directly called Chang Jun and Xu Ying together. After Chang Jun and Xu Ying arrived, Zhao Hai said to the two of them, “You know about the decision of the sect alliance. I think this is an opportunity. Chang Jun, take this opportunity to turn all the kingdom-level experts from the major sects who have gone to the smaller sects into our people. That way, when they return to the major sects in the future, they can turn the major sects into our people from within.”

Chang Jun responded, and Zhao Hai continued, “Since all the major sects have already done this, we can’t ignore them. They want to reconcile with us, right? Then we’ll reconcile with them. They’ve shown goodwill, so we’ll show goodwill too. From today onwards, I will no longer attack the sects. But even without attacking the sects, we still have ways to attract attention. Xu Ying, starting tomorrow, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect will begin recruiting members, primarily rogue cultivators. Of course, all rogue cultivators joining the Myriad Laws Divine Sect must be from the Undead race. If not, we’ll make them Undead. This recruitment drive will definitely attract attention. Besides recruiting, we also need to acquire assets. Although we don’t lack resources…” “But the Myriad Laws Sect is short of resources. We must find a source of income for the Myriad Laws Sect, otherwise we can’t explain where their cultivation materials come from. Before, we could say we stole them, but we can’t keep using that as an excuse. So, acquiring assets is absolutely necessary.”

Chang Jun and Xu Ying both agreed. Zhao Hai continued, “The Myriad Laws Sect is still too weak. We can take advantage of this opportunity to recruit some of our existing disciples into the sect. This is definitely a good opportunity.”

Both agreed. Zhao Hai then said, “Alright, let’s do it this way.” After saying that, Zhao Hai disappeared. Chang Jun and Xu Ying discussed their next move and went to work.

The various sects acted quickly. They immediately redeployed their kingdom-level experts. No sect dared to disobey their orders. The kingdom-level experts also knew that they were only going to alert Zhao Hai, not to actually fight him, so they had no complaints and all began to act.

To cooperate with their act, Zhao Hai deliberately appeared on the outskirts of several sects, even getting spotted by those kingdom-level experts. However, Zhao Hai quickly disappeared, and the conflict between the Myriad Laws Divine Sect and the various sects was thus resolved.

The aristocratic families and the royal family also quickly learned of this news. Upon hearing it, the aristocratic families didn’t react much; they thought it was good, and they were also somewhat relieved that they hadn’t attacked the Myriad Laws Divine Sect members beforehand, otherwise, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect would definitely have turned against them.

Upon receiving this news, Gongliang Juewen frowned. Being a clever man, he quickly understood the sect’s reason for acting this way, which was precisely why he frowned. He didn’t want the sect and the Myriad Laws Divine Sect to reconcile, but he also knew that they couldn’t continue fighting indefinitely. The Myriad Laws Divine Sect had suffered significant losses this time, and their strength was now quite weak; otherwise, Zhao Hai wouldn’t have personally intervened. Therefore, the sect’s goodwill this time should be accepted by the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, and then the two sides would truly reconcile.

However, he was also very clear that if he were to sow discord now, it might arouse suspicion from both sides, making them even less likely to fight. So, for now, he could only watch, unable to do anything.

However, Gongliang Juewen reconsidered and decided against inciting further conflict among the sects of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. There was no need; the sect was already in dire straits, their leader had personally taken to the front lines, and it was indeed time for them to recuperate. This sword was still very useful; it couldn’t be ruined so easily. It needed maintenance and refinement to ensure its future usability.

Therefore, after hearing about this, Gongliang Juewen simply ordered his subordinates to continue monitoring the Myriad Laws Divine Sect and its allies, saying nothing more. He wanted to see what the sects would do next.

They all quickly found out what the Myriad Laws Sect was up to, because the Myriad Laws Sect had started recruiting. They didn’t hide anything and directly announced that they were recruiting people, mainly rogue cultivators. This action surprised Gongliang Juewen and the others. They really didn’t expect the Myriad Laws Sect to do this, openly and honestly starting to recruit.
