Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16294

Chapter 16292. Choice

“It can’t be said that way. If the Myriad Laws Divine Sect truly transforms itself into a sect, then they’ve inherently placed themselves on the opposite side of us. They should know why we allow them to exist—it’s to allow them to deal with Zong Rang and the aristocratic families. If they can’t do that, then we have no reason to keep them around. So I think we should give them a warning and make them understand their place.”

Just then, a eunuch entered from outside. Upon entering the room, he bowed to Gongliang Juewen and said, “Your Majesty, Zhao Hai, the leader of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, requests an audience.”

Gongliang Juewen was taken aback upon hearing this, then his expression changed. He immediately said, “Zhao Hai has come? Is he here to explain himself? That’s interesting. Everyone, please go back first. I want to hear what Zhao Hai has to say.” The elders all responded, then bowed to Gongliang Juewen and turned to leave.

After the elders of the Gongliang family left, Gongliang Juewen had a eunuch lead Zhao Hai into the room. As soon as Zhao Hai entered, he bowed to Gongliang Juewen. Gongliang Juewen looked at Zhao Hai and said, “No need for formalities.” This time, he did not offer Zhao Hai a seat.

Zhao Hai straightened up. Gongliang Juewen looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Zhao Hai, you are a smart man. You should know why I allowed the Myriad Laws Divine Sect to exist. But what you are doing now seems to be telling me that you have forgotten why I allowed you to exist. Can you give me a reasonable explanation?”

Gongliang Juewen didn’t stand on ceremony with Zhao Hai. The Myriad Laws Divine Sect was still very weak, so there was no need for him to be polite. If the Myriad Laws Divine Sect didn’t perform well, he could simply destroy it.

Zhao Hai hurriedly replied, “Your Majesty, I have never forgotten our mission. It’s just that the Myriad Laws Sect has suffered too many losses recently, so we wanted to recruit some people to restore our strength.”

“You didn’t use any secret methods to directly turn those people into Kingdom-level cultivators, did you? If you really did, then I will order your annihilation right now.”

“Please rest assured, Your Majesty, we would never do that. We will simply give them some cultivation techniques more suitable for them, and then select some strong individuals from the independent cultivators, providing them with ample resources to help them improve their strength as quickly as possible.”

“That’s good. Tell me, what are your thoughts? You built your headquarters outside the city; do you intend to turn the Myriad Laws Sect into a major sect?”

“We have no such intention, and we will absolutely not turn the Myriad Laws Divine Sect into a sect. The reason we built our headquarters outside the city is because all the properties in the city have been divided up by various powerful families. They will not easily give up those profits. On the contrary, there are some properties outside the city that are unclaimed, and we can find some new properties, thus giving us a stable income. We will never become a sect.” “

Your guarantee is useless. You say the Myriad Laws Divine Sect will not become a sect, but it is possible for the Myriad Laws Divine Sect to become a sect. Moreover, you are no longer in conflict with sects, so wouldn’t it be a natural thing for you to become a sect?”

“Absolutely not. We are very clear about our identity, and becoming a sect would not benefit us at all. The conflict between us and the various sects is irreconcilable. They killed so many of our people, and they think they can just let this matter pass? How could that be possible? It’s just that our current strength is still too weak to deal with them, so we can only stop attacking them for now. Once our strength is restored, we will definitely not let them go.”

“Just remember your identities. I allow you to exist and support you, and I can also deal with you. Remember my words: if one day you forget your identities, then you have no reason to exist. The example of the Creation God Cult is not far off; don’t make a mistake for yourself.”

“Yes, Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will always remember my identities.”

“Hmm, so what brings you to see me today?”

“Your Majesty, I’ve come today to ask you something. If we start a war outside the city, will Your Majesty punish us?”

“You? Who are you going to fight?”

“Those sects. We want to acquire some properties outside the city, but many of them are controlled by those sects. Of course, we want to seize them, but that would mean we have to fight them. So I came to ask if it’s permissible for us to fight those sects outside the city?”

Gongliang Juewen was quite surprised that Zhao Hai had come for this reason. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, “I really didn’t expect you to want to fight those sects. Didn’t you already stop fighting? Why are you starting again?”

Zhao Hai said in a deep voice, “We know what the sects meant before. They didn’t want to fight us anymore, so they came up with a plan to guard all the sects and prevent us from attacking. Our current strength is indeed very weak; we can’t launch a full-scale attack on the sects, so we had no choice but to stop fighting them.” “We fought, but when we started that war, everyone was a kingdom-level expert. This time, we’re going to seize some markets from various sects. We won’t let kingdom-level experts fight anymore. We didn’t have ordinary people before, but now that we’ve recruited so many rogue cultivators, we’ll have them attack those sects’ markets. We want to tell those sects: although we won’t engage in battles between kingdom-level experts, the fighting between our disciples won’t stop.”

Upon hearing Zhao Hai’s words, Gongliang Juewen couldn’t help but smile. Zhao Hai had come to show his loyalty, which was good. Thinking of this, he said, “You can fight outside the city, but don’t harm the civilians. There are no civilians in those markets. You can fight as you please, but if you involve civilians, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

“Yes, Your Majesty, I’ve remembered.”

Gongliang Juewen said in a deep voice, “Good, you may leave.” Zhao Hai responded, bowed to Gongliang Juewen, and then left the room. After Zhao Hai left, Gongliang Juewen smiled slightly and said, “Not bad, Zhao Hai is indeed very shrewd. Hahaha, it’s amazing he came up with the idea of recruiting a group of rogue cultivators to help him attack the various sects. It’s truly a clever tactic, a clever tactic indeed, hahaha.” Gongliang Juewen was

really pleased. If Zhao Hai used this method to wage war against the various sects, it would mean… It was absolutely impossible for them to stand with those sects, and Zhao Hai might even target the aristocratic families’ businesses. These families also had properties outside the city. Most importantly, Gongliang Juewen had just overheard that Zhao Hai was extremely dissatisfied with the aristocratic families taking away all their properties in the city. If they weren’t unwilling to fight both the aristocratic families and sects simultaneously, they probably wouldn’t have let those families off the hook either. This time, they recruited so many rogue cultivators, preparing for a major battle, so how could they possibly let those aristocratic families go?

Gongliang Juewen was actually happy to see this happen, and he felt that this was the normal course of events. In the Divine Kingdom, if two forces truly clashed, it was usually the lower-level members who fought to the death; kingdom-level experts wouldn’t easily intervene. The reason the Myriad Laws Divine Sect hadn’t sent its lower-level members was because their own had already been wiped out by the aristocratic families and sects, so they had to resort to their most powerful moves right from the start, directly sending kingdom-level experts.

Now that’s settled, they’ve recruited so many rogue cultivators, so let them fight. Their kingdom-level experts are already being deployed. As long as the kingdom-level experts don’t get involved, the scale of the conflict can be controlled and is acceptable to all parties.

However, Gongliang Juewen is still somewhat worried. He’s concerned about whether those rogue cultivators will remain obedient. After all, they’ve only recently joined the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, and they might not fight to the death for it. In contrast, disciples from sects and aristocratic families are trained from childhood, and their loyalty is absolutely guaranteed. Compared to that, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect is at a significant disadvantage. If they send people to attack the properties of various sects or aristocratic families, and all their men run away halfway or give up at the first sign of resistance, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect will lose face.

However, Gongliang Juewen thought again that as long as the experts of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect were there, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect would exist. As for those rogue cultivators, they were dead, so what? Gongliang Juewen didn’t care. Although those rogue cultivators were also people of the Divine Kingdom, in Gongliang Juewen’s view, they were destabilizing factors in the Divine Kingdom. Ordinary rogue cultivators were fine; they all lived in cities or various markets, making a living by taking on tasks from aristocratic families or sects. These rogue cultivators didn’t need to be bothered too much.

However, some rogue cultivators are different. They practice demonic arts, and those who practice demonic arts often have problematic methods. For example, those who refine the Myriad Soul Banner or practice the White Bone Path all require living people to cultivate their techniques. As a result, these rogue cultivators often attack civilians, causing immense harm. Sometimes, an entire village can be wiped out by them. In Gongliang Juewen’s view, these rogue cultivators are no good, so he has no good feelings towards them. Not to mention those who practice demonic arts, he also has no good feelings towards ordinary rogue cultivators, because these rogue cultivators have all practiced them, and their strength is much greater than that of ordinary people. Once they really attack civilians, the civilians will not even have a chance to fight back. Therefore, these rogue cultivators are definitely the most unstable factor and the existence that Gongliang Juewen hates the most. Now, things are good. They have joined the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, and the Myriad Laws Divine Sect is about to go to war with the sect alliance. This way, more rogue cultivators can die, which is a good thing for him.
