Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16357
Chapter 16355: Discovery
Lu Lingguang, leading the Lu family and another smaller family, moved slowly forward. They had hidden in the underground passage for a long time, and after confirming that no one had noticed them, they put away the illusion-generating artifact. Then, they cautiously flew towards Qingyuan City, but they didn’t approach it. They had seen from afar that Qingyuan City had already been breached, so they absolutely dared not approach it.
Lu Lingguang immediately decided to lead everyone back to the base. Although returning to the base might result in punishment, Lu Lingguang and his group didn’t want to die. They knew very well that staying in Qingyuan City meant death, so they had no choice but to return.
However, when Lu Lingguang and his group returned to the base, they noticed something amiss from afar. They discovered that the base seemed to have been the site of a major battle, and the defensive array seemed to have disappeared. Yet, many people were going in and out, and most importantly, they didn’t recognize any of them, and judging from their clothing, they weren’t their people.
Lu Lingguang decisively bypassed the base, returning directly to their territory without crossing Thousand Lotus Mountain. He didn’t want to take any risks. He knew perfectly well that if they returned and nothing happened at the base, they would be punished for desertion. However, he was, after all, a Kingdom-level expert, and the Lu family had several other Kingdom-level experts. At most, they would only be punished, not killed.
But if they risked going to the base, they might really die. So Lu Lingguang led everyone directly over Thousand Lotus Mountain and back to their territory.
As soon as they returned, Lu Lingguang immediately led his men to Wuwei City, the territory of the Aristocratic Family Alliance. As members of the Aristocratic Family Alliance, they had to go to Wuwei City.
When they arrived in Wuwei City, they found it under heavy guard. The defensive array was activated, and the people there seemed prepared for battle. Upon seeing Lu Lingguang and his group, they appeared extremely tense, some even ready to attack.
Upon seeing this, Lu Lingguang immediately shouted, “I am Lu Lingguang, and I have just returned from the enemy-occupied zone. We wish to see Elder Shi.”
Elder Shi’s name was Shi Yong. He was an elder of the Shi family and the current commander of the Aristocratic Alliance. Of course, the original commander was Lü Xiaofang, and Shi Yong was the deputy commander. However, Lu Lingguang had witnessed the situation in Qingyuan City, so he believed that Lü Xiaofang might not be able to return. Therefore, he directly requested to see Shi Yong.
As soon as he introduced himself, the people in Wuwei City immediately reported the matter. After hearing about it, Shi Yong immediately ordered Lu Lingguang and his companions to be brought back. However, before bringing them in, he sealed all their spiritual energy, making them unable to use it. In this way, they were no different from ordinary people.
Lu Lingguang was brought before Shi Yong. Shi Yong looked at Lu Lingguang, not recognizing him, and frowned, asking, “You said you came back from enemy-occupied territory? How did you get back?”
Lu Lingguang immediately replied, “It’s a long story. Our Lu family and the Wang family went with the main army to attack Qingyuan City. But when we arrived, we found no one there. So we received orders to attack some small towns and sects around Qingyuan City, but we found no one there either. Since we intend to occupy Qingyuan City permanently, those small towns and sects need people.” Our two families were assigned to garrison a small town. We were extremely cautious, with most of us hiding in underground fortifications. Those monitoring from the outside also used illusion magic to conceal themselves. That night, we heard the sound of wind breaking, but saw no one. We immediately reported this, while we remained hidden in the underground fortifications. After confirming that it was safe outside, we wanted to return to Qingyuan City, only to find that it had been occupied by the enemy. We then tried to return to our base, only to discover that it had also been occupied, so we had no choice but to return. Upon hearing Lu Lingguang’s words, Shi Yong was taken aback, then said with some surprise, “
You were the first to sound the alarm! Not bad, not bad at all. You’re really careful; it’s quite unexpected that nothing happened. By the way, you said you’re from the Lu family. Which Lu family? Does anyone know you?”
Lu Lingguang immediately replied, “Elder Shi, we are the Qingyang Lu family. Although our family is small, many people should know us. You can ask around and you’ll find out.”
Shi Yong nodded, then waved for a disciple to come and find someone who knew the Lu family. The disciple responded… Afterwards, he went directly to find someone, and soon he found someone who knew Lu Lingguang. The person who found him was quite surprised to see Lu Lingguang. Shi Yong then looked at the person and asked, “Do you know him?”
The person nodded and said, “Yes, Lu Lingguang, the patriarch of the Qingyang Lu family.”
Shi Yong nodded, then waved for the person to leave. After the person left, he turned to Lu Lingguang and said, “It seems your identity is not in question. You can go back now; there will be new missions for you in a few days.” Lu Lingguang responded, then bowed to Shi Yong and left. Once
outside, someone removed the restrictions on him, and his spiritual energy was restored. He then returned to his home. Lu Lingguang knew that it was best for him to do nothing now; any rash actions would arouse suspicion from the enemy, so it was best to remain inactive.
While Lu Lingguang dared not do anything, Chang Jun was holding a meeting with the Blood Slaughter Sect members. Their operation had been under their complete control; they had perfectly achieved their strategic mission: to drive the enemy back. Their next step was to attack.
Once everyone had arrived, Chang Jun spoke: “This attack went very smoothly. The next step is to penetrate enemy territory. We already know how they defend their territory, so we must be careful during the attack. We cannot expose too much. If necessary, we can even retreat. Understand?”
Everyone responded. Then, an elder spoke up: “Elder Chang, one of my disciples reported a situation that I think we must take seriously.” Chang Jun
was taken aback, then immediately asked: “What situation?”
The elder replied: “When dealing with those enemies, someone discovered that some enemies, after death, turned into a cloud of black mist, without a corpse…” “Since their bodies remained, they couldn’t possibly become undead. Moreover, the state of their bodies after death seems similar to that of the Creation God Cult members. Therefore, those people might be members of the Creation God Cult.”
Upon hearing this, Chang Jun was taken aback, his expression changing drastically. He said in a deep voice, “The Creation God Cult? Didn’t we already wipe out everyone from the Creation God Cult? How come more members have appeared? Has the Creation God Cult risen from the ashes? Or are there others who have been lurking undetected?”
The elder shook his head, indicating he didn’t know. Chang Jun glanced at everyone, then frowned and asked, “Do you know who those people are? From sects? From aristocratic families?”
“They are from aristocratic families, but they belong to different smaller clans,” the elder replied.
Chang Jun frowned and said, “I really didn’t expect that the people from the Creation God Sect would come out again. This is too strange.”
“There’s nothing strange about it.” A voice suddenly interjected. As soon as Chang Jun heard this familiar voice, he immediately stood up and looked in the direction from which the voice came. Sure enough, he saw Zhao Hai standing there quietly. When everyone saw him, they all stood up and bowed to Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai waved his hand, gesturing for them to sit down, and then said, “There’s nothing strange about this. You don’t really think that a sect like the Creation God Cult relies solely on people to spread its teachings, do you?”
Chang Jun and the others were all taken aback, then they all shook their heads. Chang Jun then said, “I understand. They probably use statues to spread their teachings, perhaps even in dreams. These are all possibilities, which is why members of the Creation God Cult have reappeared.”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “The Creation God Cult previously spread its teachings in the Divine Kingdom, even becoming the state religion at one point. Although it has been destroyed, the God of Creation knows the coordinates of this place. If he wants revenge and wants to spread his teachings, there are many ways. Just like you said, spreading teachings through statues, even in dreams, is all possible. Each statue of the God of Creation is like a specific coordinate point, so it’s normal for the God of Creation to spread his teachings secretly here.”
Chang Jun and the others nodded upon hearing Zhao Hai’s explanation. Zhao Hai continued, “But there’s no need to worry about anything.” “No matter how powerful the Creation God’s proselytizing abilities are, they can’t corrupt our Blood Slaughter Sect. We just need to attack the Divine Kingdom according to our plan. As long as we turn everyone here into our people, it won’t matter how many people they’ve hidden here. We’ll definitely be able to wipe them out in the end.”
Everyone nodded. Chang Jun said, “I wonder how many members of the Creation God Cult are hiding in the Divine Kingdom. Young Master, should we tell Gongliang Juewen about this?” “Should we investigate too?”
Zhao Hai thought for a moment, then said, “Telling Gongliang Juewen is fine, but don’t investigate further. If Gongliang Juewen investigates now, how will he explain to others how he discovered the Creation God Cult? So tell him not to investigate for now, just keep an eye on things. If he can find the Creation God Cult, then of course we should investigate. If he can’t, then forget it. After all, forcibly investigating the Creation God Cult might cause panic in the Divine Kingdom, which would easily expose Gongliang Juewen and his group’s identities.”
