Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 15732 Accident
After learning about the Nine Ghosts Sect, Bai Yan and the others couldn't help but sigh. The Nine Ghosts Sect was indeed adept at ruling over the common people. They treated the common people like livestock, yet they also gave them hope. They would select some children from among the common people and have them join the Nine Ghosts Sect. Then they would tell the common people that once the children joined the Nine Ghosts Sect, they would be members of the sect and would no longer be able to return home. However, if the children achieved success in their cultivation, their families could be brought to the Nine Ghosts Sect to enjoy a life of luxury.

Those children who joined the Nine Ghosts Sect, but the commoners who weren't taken away, assumed that their children hadn't yet mastered cultivation. Over time, they came to believe that their children lacked talent and could only stay in the Nine Ghosts Sect to work, unable to cultivate, so they couldn't be taken away to enjoy a better life. Apart from lamenting their bad luck, they had no complaints about the Nine Ghosts Sect.

They had no idea that their children had long since died, and that those so-called beneficiaries of the "Blessed Clouds" had already been killed by the Nine Ghosts Sect. The Nine Ghosts Sect had a reason for not allowing commoners to cultivate: they wanted those commoners to die sooner. Without cultivation, those commoners would live for at most a hundred years, or even less, because they needed to work, and working would damage their bodies. Even if the souls here were relatively abundant, their lives wouldn't be long. After those people died, their souls would be taken away by the Nine Ghosts Sect and turned into the yin spirits they used to refine magical artifacts.

This only refers to those who died of natural causes. If they died from illness, the number would be quite large as well. The disciples of the Nine Ghosts Sect have never been particularly numerous, but the number of civilians under their rule is very large. In addition, the civilians in those small realms also die, which provides them with enough Yin spirits to use for refining magical artifacts.

It must be said that the people of the Nine Ghosts Sect are really clever. They actually managed to enable their disciples to use Yin Soul artifacts using this method. The disciples of the Nine Ghosts Sect are also quite strong. In this way, they not only preserved the Nine Ghosts Sect, but also prevented the common people under their rule from rising up against them. In fact, they all felt honored that their children could join the Nine Ghosts Sect.

After learning about this situation, Bai Yan and the others really didn't know what to say. However, they still let the commoners of the Nine Ghosts Sect start cultivating. At the same time, they told the commoners the true situation of the Nine Ghosts Sect. At first, the commoners did not believe it, but when the people from the Blood Slaughter Sect let them visit the Nine Ghosts Sect, the commoners believed it. This was because in recent years, too many commoner disciples had joined the Nine Ghosts Sect. With the size of the Nine Ghosts Sect, it was impossible to accommodate so many people. Not to mention that the number of people in the Nine Ghosts Sect now was much less than they had imagined.

After learning about this situation, the common people began to hate the people of the Nine Ghosts Sect. However, when they learned that all the people of the Nine Ghosts Sect were dead, and that the people living in the Nine Ghosts Sect area were now disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect, and that they had all died once, after some announcements, the common people of the Nine Ghosts Sect became grateful to the Blood Slaughter Sect, and of course they were willing to become disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect.

Of course, what made the common people even happier was that they could finally cultivate, and everyone could cultivate, which was definitely good news for them.

When the Blood Slaughter Sect previously claimed to have swallowed the entire Nine Ghosts Sect, they were referring to the disciples of the Nine Ghosts Sect. As for the commoners of the Nine Ghosts Sect, this was only now that the news was officially released. There was nothing that could be done about it, as it would take a considerable amount of time to win over the commoners and win their hearts.

Just two months after the Blood Slaughter Sect conquered the Nine Ghosts Sect, the Nine Ghosts Sect was finally completely absorbed by the Blood Slaughter Sect. This time, even the common people joined the Blood Slaughter Sect, which was truly remarkable.

During these two months, nothing unusual happened in the Divine Realm. Everything was peaceful and calm. The Nine Ghosts Sect, the Yin Talisman Sect, and the Yangming Sect were all minor sects in the Divine Realm, and were not taken seriously at all. So, as long as nothing unusual happened, no one paid any attention to them.

The fact that the Yin Fu Sect defeated the Yang Ming Sect and seized the Yang Ming Sect's small interface was noticed by some, but only briefly, and then quickly forgotten. After all, to other sects, it was just a conflict between two small sects, and they didn't care at all. Just like the Nine Yang Immortal Palace, the Nine Yang Immortal Palace also knew about this matter, but apart from those who were interested, no one paid any attention to it. Even Shen Xing and his group only noticed it briefly and then ignored it. To them, these were all trivial matters.

After swallowing the Nine Ghosts Sect, the Blood Slaughter Sect began preparing to take action against the next sect. They planned to slowly devour those sects and gradually strengthen themselves. They weren't afraid of being slow, as they had plenty of time to proceed at their own pace. Before they had developed into a powerful force, they were happy to develop in a low-key manner.

On the other hand, Tian Jie and his group were doing quite well at the Nine Yang Immortal Palace. Every month, the Tian family's properties there would provide them with a considerable amount of cultivation materials. They also retained the Tian family's properties. Although they would do missions, they spent most of their time cultivating, so naturally no one paid much attention to them.

Tian Jie and his group thought they could continue cultivating like this for several years. They figured that someone might try to seize the Tian family's assets, and they could just give them up. They had plenty of resources, and they would have at least a few years of peace to cultivate at their own pace. But they never expected that they would be targeted so quickly.

That day, Tian Jie was cultivating in his room when suddenly a series of very hurried footsteps approached and quickly arrived at Tian Jie's room, followed by a knock on the door.

Tian Jie slowly opened his eyes and then said, "Come in." The door was pushed open, and a servant walked in from outside. This servant was a servant born into the Tian family. He was someone who had moved to the Dao Yi Sect and then returned from there. In other words, this member of the Tian family was actually a disciple of the Blood Slaughter Sect, so his loyalty was not a problem. The Blood Slaughter Sect would not allow any mistakes to happen.

After the servant entered, he bowed to Tian Jie and said, "Young Master, someone outside requests an audience."

Tian Jie frowned and asked, "Who is it?"

The servant spoke up, saying, "Wu Weiren."

Upon hearing the name, Tian Jie's expression changed. He immediately said, "Quickly, invite him in to the main hall." The servant acknowledged and turned to leave. Tian Jie then immediately came out of the room and, as he walked towards the main hall, sent a message to the others: "Everyone, gather in the main hall immediately. Wu Weiren has arrived, possibly representing Senior Brother Duan. We must be careful." As he spoke, he quickly walked towards the main hall.

Tian Jie was so nervous because Wu Weiren's identity was extraordinary. Wu Weiren was a confidant of Duan Jingshu, who was one of the core disciples of the Nine Yang Immortal Palace who were qualified to compete for the position of sect leader.

The Tian family didn't want to get involved in the struggles among these core disciples, which is why they requested to be transferred to the Daoist sect. So, the fact that Wu Weiren came to see them today definitely indicates something is wrong.

Even when all the members of the Tian family were present, Wu Weiren didn't come. Now that he's here, it can't be anything good. Tian Jie had already guessed that these people might be here for the Tian family's business.

Others might be wary of the Shen family and Shen Xing, and thus wouldn't dare to touch the Tian family's assets, but Duan Jingxu wouldn't. As one of the core disciples, he certainly wouldn't care about the Shen family, let alone the fact that the Tian family's assets were only partially given to Shen Xing, who couldn't represent the Shen family. Although Shen Xing himself was the deputy head of the Fan Shu Hall and had some status, Duan Jingxu didn't care at all. Therefore, Tian Jie guessed almost the instant he heard Wu Weiren's name that Duan Jingxu was after their family's assets.

Not long after Tian Jie arrived at the main hall, Tian Ying and the others also arrived. As soon as they saw Tian Jie, he nodded to them and then lowered his voice and said, "We'll talk about it later." He meant that they would talk about it after Wu Weiren left. The others understood what he meant, so they all stood there and waited, because they had already seen Wu Weiren.

This Wu Weiren looked to be around thirty years old. He was tall but very fat, wearing the standard uniform of a disciple of the Nine Yang Immortal Palace—a black robe embroidered with a great sun image, nothing particularly special about it. His ever-present smile, which almost completely obscured his eyes, always gave people a sense of goodwill, making them think he was a harmless person. However, those who truly knew him knew that he was a smiling tiger, laughing to your face but turning around to kill you. He had done such things countless times.

Wu Weiren is Duan Jingshu's confidant. His presence here almost represents Duan Jingshu's intentions, so Tian Jie and the others dare not be negligent, because none of these core disciples are easy to deal with, and their strength is extremely formidable.

When Tian Jie saw Wu Weiren approaching from a distance, he immediately led the others to greet him. He stood at a distance and then bowed deeply to Wu Weiren, saying, "Greetings, Senior Brother Wu! It is truly an honor for our Tian family that Senior Brother Wu has come to visit us." Tian Ying and the others also bowed in greeting.

Looking at Tian Jie and the others, Wu Weiren smiled slightly and said, "Junior brother, there's no need to be so polite. Please get up quickly." With that, he waved his hand, and a force directly helped Tian Jie and the others to their feet, and they quickly straightened up as well.

After they straightened up, Tian Jie immediately said to Wu Weiren, "Brother Wu, please come in." Then he personally led Wu Weiren into the main hall, which was a large living room. On the wall opposite the door hung a painting of a roc with outstretched wings. Below the painting was a long table with a chair on each side. On the left and right sides, there were twelve chairs arranged in two rows, with a small table between each pair of chairs. The arrangement was quite simple.
