Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16331

Chapter 16329. Proposal

“What? You mean all the people from the major sects west of the Thousand Lotus Mountain line have been wiped out? Really? Those are all major sects! They’ve really been wiped out?”

“Sect Master, it’s true. At first, those sects were sending us messages, but soon they stopped. The most common message they sent was that they were attacked, and they even had inside agents. Among the rogue cultivators in their sect’s main hall were members of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. Those people used the teleportation array in the rogue cultivator’s settlement area to send the Myriad Laws Divine Sect’s experts to those sects. Among those sent were even kingdom-level experts from smaller sects. They didn’t send ordinary disciples; they sent only kingdom-level experts. Now, those sects are probably in grave danger.”

“Can we send someone to support them?”

“No, Sect Master, the teleportation arrays in that area west of the Thousand Lotus Mountain line have all been cut off. We have no way to teleport people there. The Myriad Laws Divine Sect knows about our plan, and they’ve already started their operation.”

“Damn it, go and notify the sect leaders of the other sects to come to a meeting. I must report this matter to His Majesty.”

Qingxuan ordered the elder with a livid face. The elder responded and then turned and left. Qingxuan immediately sent a letter to Gongliang Juewen, reporting the situation to him. Gongliang Juewen

quickly replied to Qingxuan, telling him that all the aristocratic families west of the Qianhe Mountain line had been wiped out, and all the armies west of the Qianhe Mountain line had lost contact with them. It could be said that the area west of the Qianhe Mountain line was no longer under their control.

Upon seeing Gongliang Juewen’s words, Qingxuan’s face turned extremely ugly. He took a deep breath and then immediately sent another letter to Gongliang Juewen, telling him that they had gathered manpower and were preparing to deploy troops to the Qianhe Mountain line.

Gongliang Juewen replied to Qingxuan, urging him to bring the remaining sect leaders to a meeting in Wukong City as soon as possible.

Qingxuan read Gongliang Juewen’s letter and breathed a sigh of relief. He then went directly to the meeting room and found that all the other sect leaders were already there. They had also received news of the destruction of the Wanjian Sect and its surrounding sects, and their expressions were not good.

As soon as they saw Qingxuan enter, they immediately stood up and bowed to him. Qingxuan nodded and then said, “Please follow me, everyone. His Majesty just sent me a message, requesting that I lead you all to a meeting in Wukong City. The area west of Qianhe Mountain is no longer under our control. Not only the sects, but also the families and armies are all out of control. Everyone, the great battle has begun.”

Upon hearing this, the sect leaders’ faces turned even more grim. They all responded and stood up, then followed Qingxuan outside. They then took a teleportation array to the underground transfer station in Wukong City, and from there took another teleportation array to Wukong City.

Upon their arrival in Wukong City, eunuchs immediately greeted them, bowed, and led them directly to the palace. Once there, they were taken to the main hall, where many people were already present. These included officials from various government departments, heads of powerful families, and leaders of major sects. In short, the entire elite of the Divine Kingdom had arrived.

After their arrival, Gongliang Juewen emerged from one side of the hall. Everyone bowed to him, but Gongliang Juewen waved his hand and said, “No need for formalities, rise.” Everyone straightened up

, and Gongliang Juewen said, “Sit.” They didn’t need to stand; there were cushions on the floor of the hall for them to sit on, but only after Gongliang Juewen gave the order.

After everyone was seated, Gongliang Juewen spoke up: “I think everyone has heard about what has happened in the country recently. The Myriad Laws Cult has colluded with a group of unknown people. They have silently occupied the area west of Qianhe Mountain and Chiqing River. Now, all the cities, all the aristocratic families, and all the sects in that area are their territory. There has been no news of the army. It is clear that they have been preparing for this for more than just a day or two. They may have even started preparing before the Myriad Laws Cult appeared. Otherwise, they could not have achieved this in such a short time. You should know that most of those aristocratic families and sects were not wiped out, but surrendered and joined them. It would have been impossible to do this without a long period of infiltration.” Everyone nodded in agreement .

Gongliang Juewen was right; in their view, it was the same. Not all the aristocratic families and sects that surrendered were wiped out. Surrender and annihilation are completely different. To be annihilated, you only need to find the right opportunity to kill them directly. But surrender is different. Surrender requires a long period of infiltration, eventually turning all the people of those sects and aristocratic families into their own. Only then can they surrender. If things don’t go well, the news might leak out. But none of the sects and aristocratic families in that area leaked the news. This was definitely not something that could be done in a day or two. Therefore, they all agreed with Gongliang Juewen’s words. They would never have imagined that the Blood Slaughter Sect could turn people into the undead race, or even resurrect them. So it was not surprising that they thought so.

Gongliang Juewen continued, “The most important thing now is that we must know who our enemy is this time. I suspect that the Myriad Laws Divine Sect is just a branch of theirs, deliberately released to attract our attention. At the same time, they want to use the power of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect to extend their reach into the Divine Kingdom. It can be said that they almost succeeded. If it weren’t for the Myriad Beasts Sect incident, and if they had continued to develop like this, they would have truly succeeded. If they had continued to infiltrate like this, what would have become of our Divine Kingdom? That would have been truly terrible.” “I’ve explained, everyone should understand, right?”

Everyone nodded. Gongliang Juewen continued, “This is good, at least we know where the enemy is. Although we don’t know their identities yet, we’ll find out sooner or later. But before that, we still need to find out who our enemy is. Have the aristocratic families and sects send people into the enemy-occupied territory to conduct reconnaissance and see who our enemy really is.”

Everyone responded. Gongliang Juewen continued, “Now the whole country is on high alert, and the Qianhe Mountain defense line…” “We must hold this position. My idea is, could we establish a real defensive line at Qianhe Mountain? Let’s all discuss this.”

The crowd hesitated for a moment, then began to discuss it. After a while, a minister stepped forward, bowed to Gongliang Juewen, and said, “Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate.”

Gongliang Juewen was not angry, but said, “Oh? Explain your reasons.”

The man responded and then said, “Qianhe Mountain and the Chiqing River are currently the front line, but there were originally no defensive fortifications there. If we want to build a defensive line there…” “It requires a large investment of manpower and resources, which is manageable, but the most important thing is time. Building a defensive line there will take us a long time, but the enemy won’t give us that much time. They will definitely be watching the situation along Qianhe Mountain. Once they discover that we are building a defensive line there, they will immediately attack. By then, our defensive system will not be established, and it will be almost impossible to stop their attack. They only need to break through a few points, and all our investment in Qianhe Mountain will be wasted. Therefore, I believe we should not build a defensive line at Qianhe Mountain.”

“I second that.” “I second that.” “I second that.”… Immediately, many ministers stood up to second that proposal.

Although Qingxuan and the others didn’t speak, they all nodded. Gongliang Juewen glanced at the ministers, then nodded and said, “It’s fine not to build a defensive line there. Let’s all discuss what we should do next.”

Everyone fell silent, but then someone stepped forward and said, “Your Majesty, I have a suggestion.”

Everyone looked and saw that the speaker was General Li. General Li was a high-ranking military official, and the entire military listened to him. No one mentioned his real name anymore; everyone called him General Li, even though he was now the Minister of War.

Gongliang Juewen spoke, “Speak.” General

Li responded and then said, “Yes, Your Majesty, our divine kingdom is too vast, its territory too expansive. Establishing a complete defensive line is virtually impossible; the financial and material resources required would be unimaginable. Therefore, I believe we cannot truly establish a frontline defense. Instead, we should utilize cities and sects to create a different kind of defensive line.”

Upon hearing this, everyone became curious, especially those from aristocratic families and sects. They all wanted to hear what General Li had to say, as they controlled the cities and various sects, and thus wanted to hear his thoughts.

Gongliang Juewen also looked at General Li and said, “Minister Li, please explain in detail.”

General Li responded and then said, “Yes, Your Majesty, my idea is to strengthen the defenses of each city and sect. Your Majesty should coordinate the allocation of resources, sending large quantities of supplies to each city and sect to strengthen their defenses and upgrade their protective mountain arrays so that they can withstand the attacks of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. At the same time, the teleportation arrays of each city and sect should be able to be used even within the enemy’s barrier arrays, so that they can maintain contact with the outside world and receive various forms of support. This will turn each city and sect into a fortress, thus forming a defensive line.”
