Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16315

Chapter 16313 Fear

Li Youfu was a rogue cultivator, already over fifty years old. Cultivators generally look younger than ordinary people. Although he was a rogue cultivator and looked older than the average cultivator, he still appeared younger than most, looking only in his thirties, though his face bore the marks of time.

Li Youfu had originally worked for the Ironclad Sect for many years, and had a good relationship with some of their disciples. This time, he received a mission from the Ironclad Sect to gather information from the Myriad Beasts Sect. If he found useful information, he could directly join the Ironclad Sect upon his return.

Li Youfu took this mission very seriously. If he could really join the Ironclad Sect, it would be the best news he could ever hope for. His ultimate goal was to join a sect. He had never even dared to dream of joining the Ironclad Sect before. The Ironclad Sect was a large sect, beyond his reach. Moreover, for many years, the Ironclad Sect hadn’t recruited anyone from rogue cultivators. So, he had never dreamed of joining the Ironclad Sect. But now, such an opportunity had presented itself, and how could he not be excited?

Therefore, Li Youfu immediately accepted the mission. He then took a teleportation array to a market town under the Ironclad Sect. From there, he took another teleportation array to a market town of another sect. From that market town, he took another teleportation array to a market town of yet another sect. From that market town, he took another teleportation array to a market town of the Myriad Beasts Sect. From a market town of the Myriad Beasts Sect, he took another teleportation array to the main hall of the Myriad Beasts Sect. Of course, the place he went to was also the rogue cultivator residential area of the Myriad Beasts Sect’s main hall.

The reason he went through all this trouble was because he was worried someone would investigate where he came from. By visiting several markets, even if people wanted to find out where he came from, they would only be able to find out which markets he came from, not the Ironclad Sect.

After Li Youfu arrived at the loose cultivator residential area of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect’s headquarters, he immediately frowned. He had an ability that no one knew about: if someone was hostile to him, he could immediately sense it. This ability had helped him avoid several calamities, and this time, as soon as he appeared at the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect’s headquarters, he immediately sensed hostility. Moreover, the intensity of this hostility was something he had never felt before. It was so strong that he wished he could turn around and leave immediately.

However, Li Youfu did not do that, nor did he show it. Instead, he slowly walked towards the residential area of the rogue cultivators. Not long after entering the residential area, Li Youfu became certain of one thing. His feeling was correct. Everyone here was hostile to him. Every cultivator he encountered on the road would glance at him inadvertently. All the rogue cultivators in the shops would also pay attention to him. Although those people pretended to be busy with their own things and seemed not to notice him at all, he was sure that their attention was on him.

Li Youfu pretended not to notice and slowly walked forward. Soon he arrived at an inn. He glanced at the inn casually before going inside. Once inside, he went straight to the counter and bowed to the innkeeper, saying, “Innkeeper, is there a Li Youfu staying here?”

He gave his own name, and since it was common to encounter wandering cultivators like him looking for someone, the innkeeper wasn’t surprised. He smiled and said, “Please wait a moment, sir, let me check.”

Li Youfu quickly replied, “Thank you for your trouble.” The

innkeeper smiled slightly, picked up the ledger, and looked at it for a while before saying to Li Youfu, “Sir, this inn doesn’t have anyone named Li Youfu.” “Sir, you must have the wrong inn.”

Li Youfu replied, “No way, this is the main hall of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, the Bin Gui Inn. There’s no mistake. He and I agreed to meet here, and he said he’s already waiting for me.”

Upon hearing Li Youfu’s words, the innkeeper glanced at the ledger again and then said to Li Youfu, “Sir, the location and name of the inn are correct, but there is indeed no sir named Li Youfu staying here.”

Li Youfu frowned, then said, “No one? That’s a bit strange. I’ll go wait somewhere else and come back to see if he’s arrived.” After saying this, he clasped his hands in a fist salute to the innkeeper before turning and leaving the inn.

The innkeeper watched Li Youfu’s retreating figure without saying a word. What he didn’t see was that as Li Youfu left, a jade sword appeared in his hand, flew out, and only spun once. When Li Youfu reached the inn’s entrance, the jade sword returned to him. He quickly caught it, gave it a perfunctory look, then shook his head, muttering, “Why didn’t you say you were changing locations earlier? Really, I made a wasted trip.” With that, he headed towards the teleportation array. The innkeeper, who had been watching Li Youfu closely

, stopped paying him any attention once he saw him catch the jade sword, heard his words, and saw him heading towards the teleportation array.

Li Youfu had noticed beforehand that only the shopkeeper was in the shop; the other staff were busy in the dining area. Only the shopkeeper was paying attention to him, which was why he dared to release the jade sword. He released the jade sword for himself, to prevent others from suspecting him. Of course, those words were also deliberately spoken to the shopkeeper. He wanted to leave. Everyone here was hostile towards him, so he couldn’t stay. He had to leave, but if he left directly, it might arouse suspicion. He had just arrived and was about to leave; how could they not suspect him? So he had to put on this act.

Soon, Li Youfu arrived at the teleportation array. He then used the teleportation array to go directly to another sect’s market. When he finally arrived at the other sect’s market, he breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he immediately used another teleportation array to leave. After using several teleportation arrays, he finally returned to the Ironclad Sect’s main hall.

Upon arriving at the Ironclad Sect’s main hall, he finally felt relieved. He glanced around and then immediately headed towards the Ironclad Sect’s management office in the loose cultivators’ residential area.

He had accepted his mission there. After looking around again, he went directly to the counter and bowed to the Ironclad Sect disciple inside, saying, “Greetings, sir. I’m looking for Master Zhan Jia. Is he here?”

The Ironclad Sect disciple glanced at Li Youfu and then smiled, saying, “Li Youfu, what do you need Master Zhan for? Are you looking for that mission to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect? Master Zhan is here, in his room on the second floor. You should be able to find him, right?” This Ironclad Sect disciple assumed Li Youfu hadn’t accepted the mission to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and was here to accept it, so he directly told him Zhan Jia’s location.

Li Youfu thanked him and headed up to the second floor. He soon arrived at a room there. This management office was a four-story building, similar to the management offices of most sects. The first floor was a large hall where tasks were issued and handed over. The second floor housed the offices of some of the disciples’ managers and was also where special tasks were assigned. The third floor contained the offices of the managing elders, which were inaccessible to people like Li Youfu. The fourth floor was the rest area for the Ironclad Sect disciples. Li Youfu was going to the second floor to find Zhan Jia, a managing disciple of the Ironclad Sect. This

wasn’t Li Youfu’s first time on the second floor, and he quickly reached Zhan Jia’s office. He knocked on the door, and a voice from inside said, “Come in.” Li Youfu pushed the door open and went inside.

It was a small office with only a desk. A person sat behind the desk, with only a chair in front of it. Behind the person was a cabinet, the contents of which were unknown.

The man sitting behind the table was short and thin. He had been writing something with his head down. Hearing someone enter, he looked up and, seeing it was Li Youfu, paused, then asked with some confusion, “Old Li, didn’t you accept the mission to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect? Why haven’t you left yet?”

Li Youfu bowed to the man and said, “Lord Zhan, I came precisely for this matter.”

Zhan Jia frowned and said, “Come sit down and talk.”

Li Youfu responded, walked to the table, and sat down. He then said to Zhan Jia, “Lord Zhan, it’s not that I didn’t go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect; I just returned from there.”

Zhan Jia was taken aback, then asked, “Back already? Back so quickly? Why?”

Li Youfu immediately said, “Lord Zhan, this is what I wanted to tell you. When I arrived at the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect’s unaffiliated cultivator residential area, I immediately noticed something was wrong. Although everything seemed normal there, I…” “I noticed that all the rogue cultivators there were watching me. Every single one of them was watching me. They seemed busy with their own things, but everyone was subtly observing me. This wasn’t just my imagination; it was real. I paid special attention, and I realized everyone was watching me—pedestrians, shop assistants, customers, vendors—everyone was watching me. If they were just staring, I could just assume they were curious. But they pretended not to care, yet their eyes were constantly scanning me. This was definitely not normal. They must have been tasked with monitoring all the rogue cultivators heading to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. That’s why they were doing this. It was because I discovered this that I came back immediately. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to come back.” Li Youfu still looked terrified as he said this. He was genuinely afraid that if he didn’t return soon, he wouldn’t be able to.
