Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16345

Chapter 16343 The Lu Family

Gongliang Juewen glanced at everyone and then said, “Alright, if no one has any objections, then it’s settled. We’re on the offensive now, so we don’t need to worry about the enemy attacking. Therefore, we really don’t need to leave so many people at Qianhe Mountain. Transferring those people to the front lines is indeed the most suitable choice. Issue the notice in a bit and let them begin their operations. However, we must take care of their families.”

Everyone nodded without saying anything. They all understood very well that those small sects and families were actually meant to be sacrificed when necessary. Don’t be fooled by their nice talk about sect alliances and aristocratic family alliances, claiming that all sects and families were in the same alliance. In reality, it was just empty talk. Would a large sect like Tianxuan Sect really care about those small sects? Would they really consider those small sects when making decisions? Impossible. They wouldn’t care about the lives of those minor sects. Frankly, in their eyes, those sects were no different from ordinary rogue cultivators. Therefore, they felt no guilt whatsoever about sacrificing them.

The cultivation world is sometimes that cruel. When things are peaceful, everyone can be friendly, even maintaining appearances and saving face. Even if you’re weak, they might pretend to respect you. But if a life-or-death situation arises and they need cannon fodder, then you’ll be cannon fodder. What? You don’t want to be cannon fodder? They have ways to make you one. If you stubbornly refuse to be cannon fodder, fine, then die.

This has always been the survival logic of major sects and families. When it comes to life and death, even if it means dying first to buy them even a second more survival time, they will sacrifice you without hesitation.

Therefore, smaller sects shouldn’t even think about taking advantage of the situation, or hoping that the larger sects will fight the enemy first while they sit back and watch. That’s impossible. Even if the larger sects are going to die, they’ll make sure the smaller sects die first before they go in. That’s the cruelest reality of the cultivation world.

Gongliang Juewen looked at everyone and said, “Recruiting rogue cultivators to participate in the war and sending the smaller sects and families to the front lines—that’s what we need to do next. Everyone can go back and make the arrangements.” Everyone responded, then stood up, bowed to Gongliang Juewen, and turned to leave.

After they left, Gongliang Juewen stood up and slowly walked out of the main hall, muttering to himself, “These guys really know how to scheme.”

Once back in his study, he immediately called Chang Jun and told him what had happened. Chang Jun nodded after listening, saying, “They do have a good plan, but using rogue cultivators is useless against us. We can just deal with them. It seems they really have no better options.”

Gongliang Juewen said, “That’s true. However, a large portion of those going to the front lines are from small sects and aristocratic families. Their families will be held back at the rear.” “So they won’t surrender, they’ll fight with all their might. The sect can’t hold back against these people.”

Chang Jun nodded and said, “Okay, I understand. He did a great job. That’s how it should be. You have to forget your identity as a sect disciple first. Only then will those sects and aristocratic families not suspect you. Remember, you don’t need to do anything. Your current identity is the most important thing to the sect. Do you understand?”

Gongliang Juewen responded, and Chang Jun nodded, then said, “Okay, let’s leave it at that for now. Just do as you’ve arranged. The sect has its own way of dealing with it.” Gongliang Juewen responded again and then hung up the phone.

On the other side, the Lu family also received a letter from the aristocratic family alliance. All the able-bodied members of the Lu family were required to prepare to go to the front line, but the elderly and weak members of the Lu family were required to live in a city in the rear.

Upon receiving this news, Lu Lingguang immediately summoned all the elders of the Lu family. Looking at them, he said, “I just received news from the Aristocratic Family Alliance. All able-bodied members of our Lu family have been ordered to the front lines. General Li and his men have established a base there, and they require us all to go there. As for the elderly and weak, they have been transferred to a city in the rear. Their safety should be guaranteed.”

Hearing Lu Lingguang’s words, the Lu family members were stunned. Then their expressions changed. One of the Lu family members said, “Ancestor, isn’t this using our family members as hostages, forcing us to our deaths? Isn’t this going too far?” The others all looked at Lu Lingguang.

Lu Lingguang glanced at everyone and then said, “If they don’t guarantee the safety of our families and instead send our entire families to the front lines, would we dare disobey?” Upon hearing this, the Lu family members fell silent, their faces grim. Lu Lingguang was right. Even if they weren’t allowed to settle their families and were forced to go to the front lines, they would have to go. They dared not disobey. Although their family members had all become followers of the God of Creation and their strength was rapidly increasing—some were almost at the Kingdom level—their family’s size was still far inferior to the Aristocratic Alliance. If they dared to disobey the Aristocratic Alliance, they would be doomed. At that time, the Aristocratic Alliance could easily deal with them without anyone objecting.

Lu Lingguang looked at everyone and then said, “Actually, this order isn’t necessarily a bad thing for us.”

His words surprised everyone in the Lu family. Lu Lingguang continued, “Although the order says that all the capable people in our family should go to the front lines, how many capable people our Lu family has is not up to us. We can take some of the family’s talented disciples, the family’s stored supplies, and the family’s heritage to a safe place. This way, we can ensure the family’s continuation. Of course, this is only one aspect. The other aspect is missionary work.”

“Our most important task now is missionary work, but we have no way to contact outsiders, so we can’t missionarily spread the faith at all. Isn’t this a perfect opportunity? The elderly and weak in our families can go to the safe rear to preach, while we can go directly to the front lines to preach. However, before we start preaching, we must ask the all-knowing and all-powerful God whether we should change the name of our sect. After all, the Creation God Sect is universally hated in the divine kingdom. If we want to preach, just mentioning the name of the Creation God Sect will arouse suspicion, making it even more difficult. But changing the name might make it much easier.”

Everyone nodded, agreeing with his reasoning. However, whether it was feasible or not depended on what the Creation God said. But since they had decided, that was fine. Next, they went to ask the God.

Lu Lingguang quickly went to ask the Creation God, who immediately agreed. He agreed to change the name; in his view, it was just changing the name, nothing more, as long as they could preach.

The Creation God Sect personally changed its name; their new sect was called the Salvation Sect, meaning to save people from suffering. At this time, this name was definitely the best choice.

After deciding on this matter, Lu Lingguang and his group began packing. The Lu family members split into two groups. One group, led by an elder, consisted of the elderly, weak, and talented disciples, along with the family’s heritage and supplies. They took the teleportation array to a relatively safe city in the rear. The other group, led by Lu Lingguang, consisted of the Lu family’s able-bodied members and flew directly towards Thousand Lotus Mountain. They already knew where General Li and his men had established their base, and that was where they were going. The teleportation array there was not yet completed, but support was needed, which was why Gongliang Juewen and his men had transferred them to the front lines.

Lu Lingguang led the Lu family members, quickly crossing Thousand Lotus Mountain and flying straight towards General Li’s location. Even if they reached the front lines, they wouldn’t go to General Li’s troops, but rather to the Aristocratic Alliance. They soon arrived at the base, which was still under construction, with the most crucial elements being the teleportation array and defensive formations—neither of which could be completed quickly. Upon arrival, Lu Lingguang and his group went directly to the Aristocratic Alliance.

When Lü Xiaofang heard that the Lu family had arrived, he didn’t offer much of a response, simply asking for their help. Even if they didn’t understand formations, they could help level the ground and build some houses.

Lu Lingguang and his group naturally didn’t object; instead, they all busied themselves. While they were busy, members of other families gradually arrived, though these were all from smaller families. Their situation was similar to Lu Lingguang’s group; they were all stationed as garrison commanders, so they were all sent along this time.

However, their situation was far worse than that of the Lu family. They all had gloomy faces and looked very unwilling, a far cry from the Lu family’s plight.

They were also asked to help, and although unwilling, they had no choice but to do so. However, in the evening, they were arranged to rest. Lu Lingguang saw this as an opportunity, so he took the initiative to visit the newly arrived families. Although Lü Xiaofang received the news, he didn’t interfere. In his view, it was understandable for those smaller families to want to band together for survival; their families had already gone to the rear, and they wouldn’t betray them. Let them want to band together; so although he knew about it, he didn’t intervene. This gave Lu Lingguang the opportunity to freely visit those smaller families. (End of Chapter)
