Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16459

Chapter 16457. Explanation

Although Chang Jun and his group had previously demonstrated strong array-breaking abilities, their method of breaking the Divine Kingdom’s array was entirely based on having the alien insectoids destroy the Divine Kingdom’s array, rather than using any other techniques. This led the people of the Divine Kingdom to believe that the Blood Slaughter Sect might be unable to handle their arrays built in the air. Furthermore, the Myriad Swords Illusion Immortal Array is a combination of sword arrays and illusion arrays. Illusion arrays are inherently troublesome, while sword arrays are extremely powerful offensive arrays. Because of this, the various sects and families were very confident in this operation. Most importantly, the royal family had dispatched all their forces this time, showing a genuine willingness to fight to the death. As a result, each sect and family sent out their most elite disciples, and at least two-thirds of their kingdom-level experts were sent out. Some sects and families even sent four-fifths of their experts. It can be said that they had truly gone all out this time.

This was exactly the result the Blood Slaughter Sect wanted. When these people thought their Myriad Swords Illusionary Immortal Array could protect them, they suddenly discovered it had vanished, rendering it useless. Meanwhile, those they considered allies stabbed them in the back. Their expressions must have been quite interesting.

Wu Kong City’s speed wasn’t fast, but that was only relative. Compared to those large magical artifacts, Wu Kong City’s speed wasn’t fast, but you couldn’t say it was slow either. It took Wu Kong City a full twenty days to reach the front line, the fourth line of defense. Twenty days was already quite good. Wu Kong City was much larger than ordinary large magical artifacts. Under these circumstances, for Wu Kong City to reach the front line in twenty days, you really couldn’t say it was slow.

When Wu Kongcheng arrived at the front line, the large magical artifacts there were already prepared. These artifacts were movable, so the Zhenyu Sect members had pre-arranged array runes on them. Once Wu Kongcheng arrived, they could command these artifacts to move to the appropriate positions, thus successfully setting up the array. After

Wu Kongcheng arrived at the front line, Wen Jing personally took charge, directing the large magical artifacts to begin setting up the array. He first had the artifacts fly to the same height as Wu Kongcheng, then directed them to their suitable positions.

Once the artifacts were in the correct positions, he adjusted the array runes. After everything was done, he had everyone take out their Shattering Star Swords and flying swords and place them on the array runes or directly on the large magical artifacts. Even Wu Kongcheng was covered with various flying swords, as well as a large number of Shattering Star Swords.

After everything was prepared, Wen Jing activated the magic array. As it did, sword energy shot straight into the sky, seemingly tearing the heavens and earth apart. Gongliang Juewen stood before the main hall of Wukong City, watching the soaring sword energy with a smile on his face.

Wen Jing, seeing the soaring sword energy, finally let out a long breath. He then turned and bowed to Gongliang Juewen, saying, “Your Majesty, it’s a success.” Wen Jing had activated the magic array while standing beside Gongliang Juewen.

Gongliang Juewen nodded, then said, “Alright, thank you for your hard work.” He continued, “Someone, notify the sect leaders of all the major sects and the heads of all the major families to come here for a meeting.”

A eunuch responded, bowed to Gongliang Juewen, and left. Gongliang Juewen and Wen Jing then entered the main hall. After they sat down, Gongliang Juewen, without looking outside, asked, “Can the people outside not see what’s happening inside the magic array?”

Wen Jing nodded, “Yes, Your Majesty, the people outside cannot see what’s happening inside the magic array.” “The situation is that there’s an illusion array here, so people outside can’t see the magic weapon at all. However, when it was first activated, the enemy could still see the sword energy, but they can’t now.”

Gongliang Juewen nodded and said, “It’s already very good. You did a great job. Whether we can stop the Blood Slaughter Sect’s attack this time depends on your magic weapon.”

Wen Jing repeatedly said he didn’t dare to accept it. At this time, other sect leaders and family heads arrived at the main hall. They all bowed to the two of them, and the two returned the bow. Then more and more people arrived, and soon all the family heads and sect leaders had arrived.

After everyone had arrived, Gongliang Juewen looked at everyone and said, “Now that the magic array has been activated, this place can’t move. In other words, I have to stay here and not move an inch.”

His words made Qingxuan and the others’ expressions change. They suddenly remembered that if Wukong City couldn’t move, it meant that Gongliang Juewen couldn’t move either. And Gongliang Juewen was the emperor! Now that the emperor was on the front line, it seemed a bit unreasonable.

Gongliang Juewen looked at everyone and said, “Our Gongliang family is the royal family. At this time, we should stand up and take on the responsibilities we should bear. That’s why I sent Wu Kongcheng to the front line. However, no one knows if there will be any accidents in this world. If we really fail to defend this place, if all of us die in battle, then the entire Divine Kingdom will be leaderless, which will be very disadvantageous.”

Qingxuan and Wanhai’s expressions changed once again. Although Gongliang Juewen’s words were unpleasant, this situation was indeed a possibility. If Gongliang Juewen really died, then who would listen to the affairs of the Divine Kingdom in the future? Who would be in charge? This would be a big problem.

Gongliang Juewen continued, “If I truly die in battle, it means the Gongliang family is finished, and naturally, the Gongliang family can no longer be the royal family. So my idea is, if we really fail here, let the people of the Gongliang family die for the divine kingdom. As for what you remaining people should do, that’s up to you. However, I suggest you form an alliance, with Qingxuan as the alliance leader and Wanhai as the deputy alliance leader. You can discuss things slowly.”

His words sounded like a will, making everyone feel very uncomfortable. Gongliang Juewen continued, “Of course, I’m just suggesting it. How you do it is up to you.”

Qingxuan looked at Gongliang Juewen and said, “Your Majesty, it hasn’t come to that point yet. Please go to the rear. We still have so many troops. Your Majesty doesn’t need to personally go to the front lines.”

Everyone else nodded. Just as Qingxuan said, Gongliang Juewen indeed didn’t need to put on a show of holding out to the death. They hadn’t reached the end of their rope yet.

Gongliang Juewen shook his head and said, “No, you’re oversimplifying things. On the surface, we’re at the fourth line of defense, but behind that is a fifth line, and behind that is a vast area that can serve as our strategic depth. It seems we can continue fighting the Blood Slaughter Sect. But what will we lose if we fail this time? Have you considered that?”

Everyone was stunned by Gongliang Juewen’s words. They then carefully calculated the consequences, their expressions growing increasingly grim. Finally, they understood why Gongliang Juewen was so determined to hold out.

As he said, if they failed, what would they lose? They would lose the most elite forces of the entire Divine Kingdom, three-fifths of its kingdom-level experts, all its large magical artifacts, and Wukong City. If they truly lost all of these, what would the Divine Kingdom use to resist the Blood Slaughter Sect’s attack? At that point, all Gongliang Juewen could do was await death.

Everyone knows that Gongliang Juewen is proud; he is an emperor, and this time he has staked the entire fortune of the Gongliang family. If he fails this time, it won’t just be a simple defeat; he will have lost everything the Gongliang family has. What will he have left then? His life? And what use will he have then? To wait for death? For a proud person, death is preferable to losing everything and having only one life left to slowly await death. Therefore, if they truly lose this time, Gongliang Juewen will definitely not survive. Even if the enemy doesn’t kill him, he will kill himself; this is his pride.

Gongliang Juewen turned to look at Qingxuan and the others, then said in a deep voice, “Everyone, for so many years, we’ve been fighting and vying for power, but all we’ve ever fought for is profit. We have no hatred. This time, I will defend this place to the death. It’s either death or victory; there is no other choice. As for you, you still have one last chance. If we really die, how you fight the Blood Slaughter Sect will be up to you. I can’t give you much advice because I failed. Advice from a loser will only lead you to another failure. So, it will be up to you then. I only hope that if one day you really win, you can tell the survivors that there was once a family named Gongliang in this world.”

Qingxuan and the others all fell silent. To be honest, they really didn’t know what to say. But no matter what, Gongliang Juewen had already said so much; what else could they say?

Wan Hai then smiled wryly, “Your Majesty, if you truly suffer a defeat here, then I fear it won’t be long before we come to see you. So there’s no need for you to be in such a hurry; just wait for us.”

Qing Xuan and the others were taken aback by Wan Hai’s words, then suddenly burst into laughter. The laughter grew louder and louder until everyone in the hall was laughing.

Gongliang Juewen looked at them, and a pang of sadness struck him, but he quickly accepted it. These people were loyal and devoted; they hadn’t betrayed the Divine Kingdom. Gongliang Juewen was deeply moved by this. Fortunately, they would soon become members of the Blood Slaughter Sect, and then they would all be on his side. This was good news. (End of Chapter)
