Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16495

Chapter 16493 Requirements

Everyone nodded. In their eyes, Wen Wenhai was at most a steward, while Zhao Hai was the one in charge. They dared to ask the steward for favors, but they didn’t have the guts to ask the head of the family for anything. Not to mention the newcomers, even veterans like Liu E wouldn’t dare. In fact, people like Liu E were even less likely to ask Zhao Hai for favors; they were terrified of him.

Wan Hai looked at Liu E and said, “Elder Liu, you’ve been in the sect for a long time, and your opinion is very important to us. So, tell us, what should we do?”

Everyone nodded. Liu E glanced at them and breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he was really worried that these people wouldn’t listen to him. If they didn’t, it would be a real problem. So, while speaking, he kept observing their reactions, wanting to see how they would react. Fortunately, they made the right choice.

Liu E looked at everyone and then said, “First, I’d like to know what kind of benefits you all want. Tell me yourselves.”

Wan Hai glanced at everyone and then said, “We don’t actually want much. We just want some preferential treatment from the sect. We’ve all just joined the sect, and we want some preferential treatment so that our cultivation speed will be faster and we can catch up with the older members.”

The others all nodded in agreement. That was indeed what they thought. They really didn’t dare to ask for too much because they knew very well that if they asked for too much, the Blood Slaughter Sect would definitely not agree and might even punish them. So they didn’t dare to go too far.

After hearing Wan Hai’s words, Liu E breathed a sigh of relief and then said, “Alright, now I understand. To be honest, your request is really good. If it were too excessive, the sect would never agree, and they would definitely deal with you. Let me explain my request, which is actually quite simple. I require that after we complete a sect task, the sect should award us one more contribution point than ordinary people. For example, an ordinary disciple would receive ten contribution points for completing a sect task, while we would receive…” “Eleven contribution points, on the surface, may seem like just one more, but what if completing a task earns a reward of one hundred contribution points? Or a thousand, or even ten thousand? That number is enormous. So, while ten percent of contribution points may not sound like much, their help to us is immense.”

Wan Hai and the others were taken aback by Liu E’s words, then they all nodded. Liu E’s request was indeed reasonable; he didn’t explicitly ask for any benefits, but simply requested an increase in their contribution point rewards—a truly excellent approach.

Then Liu E spoke up, “That’s one request. The second request is that in the future, whatever we exchange from the Real Illusion, we should use 10% fewer contribution points than ordinary disciples of the sect. This request doesn’t sound unreasonable, but combined with the first request, it means we’ll have 20% more benefits than others. That’s the biggest advantage.”

Wan Hai and the others’ eyes lit up. Liu E continued, “Most importantly, this request isn’t unreasonable. Elder Wen can decide. Because contribution points, a little more or less doesn’t really matter, and the same goes for resources. The sect has endless resources; a little more…” “A little less really won’t have much of an impact, but the benefits will fall on us, allowing us to cultivate even faster. That’s our confidence. If one day we all become kingdom-level experts, then we can unite and ask the sect for even greater benefits. Do you think the sect will give them to us? They definitely will.”

Hearing Liu E say this, Wan Hai and the others’ eyes lit up even more. Wan Hai turned to look at the others and then asked, “What do you all think?” Everyone nodded vigorously, and one of the family heads even said, “Good, excellent! This idea is great, I agree.” The others all agreed as well.

After everyone agreed, Wan Hai turned to Liu E and said, “We agree to both of Elder Liu’s requests.”

Liu E nodded and said, “That’s good. This time, we only want these benefits. Later, when our family’s disciples become stronger, we’ll ask for more.”

Everyone nodded, and Liu E continued, “Since we want to talk to Elder Wen as soon as possible, I think we should do it even faster. Let’s do it the day after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, we’ll all join together and write to Elder Wen, saying that we have some requests and want to raise them with him in person. Let’s see how Elder Wen reacts. I think he will definitely agree.”

Wan Hai nodded and said, “Okay, let’s go see Elder Wen together. With so many of us making requests together, Elder Wen will definitely agree.” Everyone else nodded as well. They were very clear that there was no turning back now. They had to go see Wen Wenhai in person. If they backed down now, the others present would not let them off the hook.

Everyone nodded. Liu E looked at them and said, “Alright, it’s settled then. We’ll act the day after tomorrow. Everyone be careful these next two days and try to keep a low profile. The fewer people who know about this, the better. That way, the sect won’t refuse our demands just to save face. If we spread the word everywhere and everyone in the sect knows we’re going to negotiate, then everyone will be watching the sect closely. At that point, the sect will definitely refuse our demands for the sake of face. So now we need to be even more discreet and absolutely cannot let more people know about this.”

Everyone responded, their expressions becoming serious. They hadn’t considered this point, and it was fortunate that Liu E reminded them; otherwise, they would have made a grave mistake.

Liu E glanced at everyone and then said, “If everyone agrees, then it’s settled. Let’s go back and prepare.”

Everyone nodded, deciding to return to prepare. They then bowed to each other and disappeared.

Meanwhile, Wen Wenhai sat in his study, looking at the projector in front of him. The projector showed the bamboo grove where Liu E and his group had held their meeting. He had heard and seen everything they said.

Gongliang Juewen looked at the empty bamboo forest and turned to Wen Wenhai, saying, “Master, their demands don’t seem too unreasonable. I thought they would ask for even greater benefits, but this is all?”

Wen Wenhai nodded and said, “They aren’t unreasonable because they dare not ask for more. Didn’t you hear what Liu E said? They’ll ask for even greater benefits once they’ve gained enough strength. But you must understand, this isn’t about how much they ask for, but about not setting a precedent. If they ask for benefits and we give them, what will happen if others find out and also come to us asking for benefits, and we give them those too? What will become of us? What will become of the sect? So this precedent must absolutely not be set.”

Gongliang Juewen nodded in agreement, then turned to Wen Wenhai and asked, “Master, what should we do with them?”

Before Wen Wenhai could speak, a voice rang out, “Execute them, leave no one alive.” The sudden voice startled Gongliang Juewen.

Wen Wenhai, already used to it, immediately stood up and said, “Young Master.” Gongliang Juewen also turned around and saw Zhao Hai standing in front of the room. He quickly bowed to Zhao Hai and said, “Young Master.”

Zhao Hai nodded, then walked to the rest area and took out a tea set. Wen Wenhai immediately went over, and Gongliang Juewen followed. Wen Wenhai didn’t stand on ceremony and sat down directly in front of Zhao Hai. Gongliang Juewen was about to stand behind Wen Wenhai when Wen Wenhai pointed to the seat next to him, indicating that he should sit down. Gongliang Juewen sat down somewhat nervously.

This wasn’t the first time Gongliang Juewen had met Zhao Hai. He had seen Zhao Hai before when Zhao Hai was hiding his identity, and he had seen Zhao Hai many times afterward. But this time, Zhao Hai was different; he was somewhat afraid in Zhao Hai’s presence.

Zhao Hai brewed the tea and handed a cup to each of them. He then poured himself a cup, gently inhaled the aroma, and drank it down in three sips.

Wen Wenhai also picked up his tea, inhaled the aroma, and drank it down in three sips. Gongliang Juewen naturally followed suit.

Zhao Hai then put down his teacup, looked at Gongliang Juewen, and smiled, saying, “How are you? Are you settling in with the sect?” Gongliang Juewen

immediately replied, “Yes, very well. Thank you for your concern, Young Master.”

Zhao Hai waved his hand and said, “Don’t be so tense. Just relax in front of me. Isn’t it strange that I asked you to execute those people directly? Their demands weren’t very high. Even if we didn’t agree to their requests, some punishment would have been enough. There was no need to kill them. There were quite a few people this time. Killing so many at once feels a bit too cruel, doesn’t it?”

Gongliang Juewen hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, “Yes, Young Master, I am indeed a bit…” “I can’t bear it.”

Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, “You don’t understand what the sect is facing right now, which is why you think this way. We’re about to ascend to the Upper Realm. Once we reach the Upper Realm, we’ll face enemies like the God of Creation. Those enemies have plenty of ways to turn weak-willed people into their ranks. People like Wan Hai have too many schemes. Having many schemes isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but they shouldn’t have set their sights on me. I won’t let them go because they have too many schemes. They’ll be manipulated in the Upper Realm. Don’t be fooled by their status as the undead; once they’re in the Upper Realm, there’s no way to guarantee their loyalty.” (End of Chapter)
