Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16317
Chapter 16315. Reporting
Upon seeing the armor, Li Youfu immediately bowed and said, “Greetings, Lord Zhan.”
The armor waved its hand and said, “No need for formalities, sit down.” Li Youfu responded and went over to sit down. The armor looked at Li Youfu and then said, “Old Li, I have a question for you. Think carefully before you answer.”
Seeing its serious expression, Li Youfu asked, somewhat puzzled, “Yes, please ask, Lord Zhan.”
Li Youfu nodded and then said, “Old Li, I ask you, how many hostile gazes have been directed at you from your house to here? Think carefully and then tell me.”
Li Youfu was taken aback, but then he immediately understood what was going on. He thought carefully for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, a sudden thought flashed through his mind, and he said, “Lord Zhan…” “Are these people the ones who led me here?”
Zhan Jia’s eyes flashed, and he replied, “Yes.”
Li Youfu immediately said, “Seven. There were seven hostile gazes directed at me.”
Zhan Jia nodded in agreement, “Good, you answered well. There were indeed seven people. Go back now, and don’t leave the sect these days. This time, something good might really be coming your way.”
Upon hearing Zhan Jia’s words, Li Youfu’s eyes lit up. He immediately stood up, bowed to Zhan Jia, and said, “Thank you, Lord Zhan.”
Zhan Jia waved his hand, and Li Youfu left Zhan Jia’s room excitedly. After Li Youfu left, Zhan Jia pushed open the door and quickly arrived outside Lin Youwei’s room, then knocked on the door.
Lin Youwei’s voice called out, “Come in.” Zhan Jia responded and entered. Lin Youwei was sitting behind his desk. Upon seeing him, Lin Youwei immediately beckoned, and Zhan Jia went over and bowed, saying, “Greetings, Master.”
Lin Youwei waved his hand, saying, “No need for formalities. How was it?”
Zhan Jia said in a deep voice, “You guessed right. I found six people, plus the one who went to fetch him, making a total of seven. I told these seven people to be somewhat hostile towards him, and he noticed them all.”
Lin Youwei’s expression changed, and he immediately said, “Alright, I understand. You can go back now.” Zhan Jia responded, then bowed to Lin Youwei again before turning and leaving.
After the armored warrior left, Lin Youwei stood up and left the room, heading straight for the core area of the Ironclad Sect. Soon he arrived outside Tie Huanshan’s study. He clasped his hands in a fist salute to a servant standing at the door and said, “Please announce my arrival; Lin Youwei has urgent business to discuss with the Sect Master.”
The servant bowed back. He was a perceptive man and recognized Lin Youwei. Lin Youwei’s status was not low, so he dared not be negligent. After hearing Lin Youwei’s words, he quickly responded and then pushed open the door to enter the room.
A moment later, he emerged from the room and said to Lin Youwei, “Hall Master Lin, please.” Lin Youwei nodded and then entered the study.
Tie Huanshan’s study was not very large, and its layout differed from Lin Youwei’s office. It was truly divided into inner and outer rooms; the outer room was used for receiving guests, while the inner room was Tie Huanshan’s actual study.
As soon as Lin Youwei entered the study, he heard Tie Huanshan’s voice say, “Junior Brother Lin, come in.” Lin Youwei responded and entered the study.
Upon entering, he saw Tie Huanshan sitting behind his desk, smiling at him. Lin Youwei quickly bowed and said, “Greetings, Sect Master.”
Tie Huanshan waved his hand and said, “Alright, no need to be so polite, come and sit down.” Lin Youwei responded and sat down.
After he sat down, Tie Huanshan asked, “Junior Brother Lin, you said you had important business? What is it?”
Lin Youwei said solemnly, “Sect Master, I’m here about the Myriad Beasts Sect. You previously ordered us to send some rogue cultivators to the Myriad Beasts Sect to gather information. Today, one of them accepted the mission and went to the sect, but he returned immediately. However, he made a startling discovery: all the rogue cultivators in the sect were watching his every move. This wasn’t a delusion; he has an innate sense of hostility. I even tested it myself, and it proves he truly possesses this ability. That means his intuition is correct. That means all the rogue cultivators in the Myriad Beasts Sect are paying attention to outsiders.” “
When Tie Huanshan heard this, he didn’t quite understand what he meant. He frowned and asked, “Did the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect give orders to those rogue cultivators?”
Lin Youwei shook his head and said, “I think it’s more than that. Sect Master, think about it. Although the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect isn’t a large sect, it’s still a medium-sized one. There must be many rogue cultivators gathered at their main hall. These rogue cultivators can’t all know each other, but when our people arrived there, they recognized them all and kept monitoring them. There’s a big problem here. I think something really happened to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect has been taken over, and the other side, in order to avoid…” “Let this news leak out, and we’ll also capture all those rogue cultivators. Then we’ll give them something to identify them. They only need to look at it once to know that some of them aren’t from their sect. We’ll keep an eye on those people. So I think something must have happened at the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. They might even have changed hands by now.”
Tie Huanshan’s expression changed. He stared at Lin Youwei and said, “Are you sure?”
Lin Youwei said in a deep voice, “My deduction is like this, and the rogue cultivator we sent does indeed have the ability to detect hostility. I had my disciple test this, and it confirmed that he does have this ability.” “If all the rogue cultivators at the Myriad Beasts Sect are indeed monitoring the newly arrived ones, then there’s definitely something wrong with the Myriad Beasts Sect.”
Tie Huanshan nodded, then stood up. Lin Youwei followed suit. Tie Huanshan paced around the room for a while before finally speaking, “Elder Qian went to the Myriad Beasts Sect today. He should be back soon. We’ll discuss this matter properly after he returns.”
Lin Youwei responded. Tie Huanshan turned to Lin Youwei and said, “Go back first. Don’t tell anyone about this.” Lin Youwei responded again, then bowed to Tie Huanshan and left.
After Lin Youwei left, Tie Huanshan turned to look outside and murmured, “The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect!”
Meanwhile, Qian Le, the head of the Ironclad Sect’s External Affairs Hall, was sitting in the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect’s study. The sect leader smiled at Qian Le and said, “Hall Leader Qian, why did you come in person? If there’s anything, just let us know, and we’ll handle it.”
Qian Le smiled back, “It’s nothing. It’s just that the sect leader is very concerned about the letter from yesterday, so he sent me to see what was going on. Seeing that everything seems fine at the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, I’m relieved.”
The sect leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect smiled. “Thank you for your concern, Sect Master Tie. We have truly resolved this matter. The person who stole our sect’s communication array was personally dealt with by our sect’s Supreme Elder. Please rest assured, Sect Master Tie.” Qian Le nodded
upon hearing the words of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect Sect Master. He had been observing the situation at the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect along the way, trying to see if there were any signs of a battle. There were none. No signs of a battle whatsoever. No houses were damaged, no roads were broken, and no walls had collapsed. Everything was normal. The disciples of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect were all doing what they were supposed to do, and there was nothing unusual, so he was relieved.
Qian Le then spoke up, “The situation is rather unusual right now. Those guys from the Myriad Laws Sect are currently fighting us. Although they’re only robbing some markets, we’re worried they might suddenly resort to underhanded tactics, so we have to be careful. If anything happens here, be sure to let us know. Also, make sure the magic array is well preserved; we can’t afford any more blunders. Last time, we almost had to assemble a large army. Luckily, we confirmed with you, otherwise, the commotion would have been much bigger.” The
Sect Master of the Myriad Beasts Sect quickly replied, “Please rest assured, Elder Qian, this will definitely not happen again. This incident was truly an accident. We will definitely be more careful in the future.”
Qian Le nodded and said, “Good. Actually, it’s best if everything is alright here. I’ll head back now. The Sect Master was mainly worried and sent me to check on things. Now that everything’s alright, we’re relieved. Alright, we’re leaving.” With that, Qian Le stood up and prepared to leave.
The Sect Master of the Myriad Beasts Sect hurriedly said, “No, Hall Master Qian, if you let me leave now, wouldn’t I be the one to curse me? You came all this way for our sect’s sake, and I haven’t even provided you with a meal. If I just let you leave like this, what kind of person would I be? You absolutely must stay and have a meal. I’ve already had it prepared, let’s go eat now.”
Upon hearing this, Qian Le laughed and said, “That’s exactly what I was waiting for! Hahaha, if I come all this way to the Myriad Beasts Sect and don’t eat some of your fresh meat before leaving, I’ll be missing out!”
The Sect Master of the Myriad Beasts Sect laughed heartily upon hearing this, and then they went directly to the restaurant. Their conversation had actually brought them closer. Qian Le was specifically in charge of diplomacy for the Ironclad Sect, so he had deliberately spoken that way to get closer to the Sect Master of the Myriad Beasts Sect, and now he had achieved his goal.
The Myriad Beasts Sect had indeed made preparations long ago, and people could eat as soon as they arrived. However, this time their setup wasn’t very grand. In a private room in the restaurant, there were only the sect leader of the Myriad Beasts Sect and Qian Le. The food prepared on the table was very simple: a few plates of spiritual dishes, a jar of spiritual wine, and various kinds of beast meat. There were more than a dozen plates of beast meat, all kinds of them. In the middle of the table was a copper pot with a milky white broth that was constantly boiling.
