Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16355
Chapter 16353 Defeat
presence of vines didn’t mean there wouldn’t be insects. They only needed to clear away the vines to quickly pass through the passage. So Fang Wuwei immediately took action, sending several magical artifacts flying to attack the vines in the passage, completely shredding them.
After clearing away all the vines, Fang Wuwei and the others rushed into the passage, wanting to cross it as quickly as possible while also guarding against the ground, fearing that the insects might emerge from underground to attack them.
But at that moment, suddenly, several arms reached out from the passage wall, grabbing several people and pulling them directly into the wall. The people didn’t react in time and were directly drawn into the wall. Most strangely, the wall was completely intact from beginning to end, as if the arms that had reached out were not solid, and the cultivators they grabbed seemed to instantly become intangible, being pulled directly into the wall.
Fang Wuwei and the others also saw this situation. They immediately attacked the passage wall, their magical artifacts all being high-level items. Their artifacts riddled the passage wall with holes, but it was useless, because the passage wall was completely normal; there was nothing inside, no enemies, and those who had been pulled into the passage were gone.
Upon seeing this, Fang Wuwei’s expression changed drastically. He immediately shouted, “Go!” He then sped up, and soon they rushed out of the passage and into another, larger space. Looking at this space, Fang Wuwei and the others’ expressions became even more grim, because this space contained many dead bodies, from various sects.
Fang Wuwei’s eyes swept over the dead bodies, but when his eyes fell on a mummified corpse, his expression changed. He looked at the mummified corpse carefully, then landed beside it, his eyes filled with sorrow.
Although the mummy was beyond recognition, he still recognized it. It was none other than his nephew, a member of the Fang family, who had come to the front lines with him. Although they were from the Divine Arm Sect, the sect also had families, and this was the Fang family.
Now that his nephew was dead, he had to take his body back. Fang Wuwei looked at the corpse with sorrow. He reached out to touch it, but suddenly, the corpse moved, and a long sword pierced his chest. Fang Wuwei
was completely unprepared. No matter how vigilant he was, he wouldn’t be wary of his nephew’s corpse, so the corpse easily succeeded in its attack.
Fang Wuwei stared blankly at the corpse. He saw it visibly revert to a normal human form; it was his nephew. Fang Wuwei looked at him, puzzled. His nephew, seeing Fang Wuwei’s expression, smiled slightly and said, “Uncle, welcome to our group.”
Fang Wuwei didn’t understand the meaning of this. He was a kingdom-level expert; his powerful vitality allowed him to survive even with his heart shattered, staring intently at his nephew.
His nephew looked at Fang Wuwei and then said, “You’ll soon find out what’s going on.”
At this moment, the others noticed what was happening. They all roared, wanting to attack Fang Wuwei’s nephew, but he chuckled lightly, then his figure suddenly disappeared into the ground.
Upon seeing this, the last trace of color drained from Fang Wuwei’s face. He turned to look at the others and said, “Go! Don’t worry about me!” He then collapsed to the ground.
Seeing Fang Wuwei’s wounds, the others knew he couldn’t survive and immediately rushed towards other passages, wanting to leave as quickly as possible.
Fang Wuwei lay there, not dead yet, but utterly exhausted. He had lost all strength the moment his nephew plunged the sword into his chest; otherwise, he would have attacked his nephew. But alas, he couldn’t.
At that moment, his nephew reappeared beside Fang Wuwei. Fang Wuwei looked at his nephew, who was actually smiling. Then his nephew said, “Uncle, I’ve come to end your suffering.” With that, he struck again, severing Fang Wuwei’s head. Fang Wuwei was now truly dead. But immediately afterward, his nephew cast a rune on Fang Wuwei’s body, instantly restoring him to health. Meanwhile, the other corpses in the space all sat up. They glanced at Fang Wuwei’s nephew, and one of them teased, “Little Fang, when Elder Fang wakes up, you’re probably going to get a good beating.”
Fang Wuwei’s nephew gave a wry smile and said, “We have to do this even if we get beaten; there’s no other way.” The others didn’t laugh at him; they all nodded and said nothing. Fang Wuwei’s nephew stayed there, waiting for Fang Wuwei to wake up.
A quarter of an hour later, Fang Wuwei finally regained consciousness. As soon as he woke up, he gently shook his head, then looked around before his gaze finally settling on his nephew. Fang Wuwei’s nephew gave a wry smile, then knelt before Fang Wuwei and said, “Uncle, I’m sorry.”
Fang Wuwei looked at him, then sighed softly and said, “It’s alright, get up. It’s not your fault; after all, it’s the sect’s order.”
Fang Wuwei’s nephew kowtowed to Fang Wuwei before standing up. Fang Wuwei looked around… Seeing that there were indeed quite a few people here, he couldn’t help but smile bitterly and said, “I didn’t expect it to turn out like this. Oh well, we’re all from the sect now anyway. Let’s wait here for a while. The sect should send someone here soon and take us to the sect.”
Everyone nodded. The battle outside had nothing to do with them. They didn’t need to worry about anything. The vines, the insects, and the mist dragons could easily take them all in. There was no need for them to intervene.
Meanwhile, General Li and his men faced attacks from countless enemies. The Blood Slaughter Sect members used their Five Elements Dividing Light Realm to create giant swords, breaking through their defensive formation. Forced to retreat, they soon encountered the large magical artifacts, which also retreated. The Blood Slaughter Sect members who had attacked them immediately moved aside upon seeing the artifacts and prepared to form their own Five Elements Dividing Light Realm to attack them. This caused the large magical artifacts to flee without even stopping. However, this disruption allowed General Li and his men to directly enter Thousand Lotus Mountain, while the enemies retreated instead of following. After retreating
from Thousand Lotus Mountain and regrouping, they discovered that they now only had about ten million men, and the remaining thirty large magical artifacts needed to be preserved.
General Li immediately entered the large magical artifact and sent a letter to Gongliang Juewen. He then led his men to retreat to various sects and cities near Qianhe Mountain. They had suffered heavy losses and were forced to regroup. After receiving General
Li’s letter, Gongliang Juewen immediately sent letters to Qingxuan and Wan Hai, requesting a meeting of the sect leaders and family heads.
Once they had all arrived, Gongliang Juewen glanced at them and said, “Gentlemen, I think you all know what happened, so I won’t repeat it. We suffered heavy losses this time. We never expected the enemy to have a way to deal with large magical artifacts. We didn’t anticipate this. We need to think about what to do next.”
Everyone’s expression was grim. Their losses were significant, as were those of the military and the Gongliang family, so they couldn’t blame Gongliang Juewen.
Qingxuan remained silent for a moment before speaking, “I think we haven’t taken the enemy seriously enough. We didn’t pay enough attention to them before. In our view, our territory was much larger than theirs, and we had far more cultivators. We thought we could easily wipe them out on our own, simply advancing step by step. We didn’t conduct any reconnaissance or gather any intelligence. Now, besides knowing about the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, other sects, and families among our enemies, we know nothing else. We have no idea how strong they are, or even who they are. This is a clear indication of our lack of respect for the enemy.” “That’s why we’ve suffered repeated losses and lost so many men.”
Everyone nodded, even Gongliang Juewen. He said in a deep voice, “Sect Master Qingxuan is right. We didn’t pay enough attention to the enemy before. But gathering intelligence on them won’t be easy. The enemy has their own territory. If we want to gather intelligence, we have to go to their territory. But if our people go to their territory, they will definitely be discovered. So gathering intelligence won’t be easy.”
Everyone nodded. What Gongliang Juewen said was indeed reasonable. Gathering intelligence on the enemy was indeed very difficult, so it was normal that they couldn’t gather any. Qingxuan,
however, said, “Since we’re going to have to fight the enemy for a long time anyway, we might as well spend more time gathering intelligence. Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. Only with sufficient preparation can we defeat the enemy; otherwise, we might suffer losses.”
