Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 15974 Promotion
"You mean Wu Lingfeng ran off to Area Three?" Elder Lu stared at the man in front of him with an extremely ugly expression. The man looked to be in his thirties, but he was actually quite old. He was also a manager in the outer sect. He had just heard about this matter and immediately came to report it to Elder Lu.

The man said, "It hasn't been confirmed yet; I only heard about it."

"Go, go check right away to see if Wu Lingfeng really went to Area Three."

"Yes, Elder." After saying that, the man left the study. After the man left, Elder Lu snorted coldly and said, "A stinking salted fish, trying to turn things around? Dream on."

The next morning, the steward came to Elder Lu's office. As soon as Elder Lu saw him, he immediately asked, "How did it go?"

The manager said, "It's confirmed, it's Wu Lingfeng, he really is from Area Three."

Elder Lu snorted coldly and said, "Well done, very well indeed. I didn't expect you to run off to Area Three. Did you think that just because you ran there, I wouldn't be able to deal with you? Heh, how naive. Go and fetch Wu Changfeng for me." The steward responded and then turned and left.

A short while later, Wu Changfeng arrived. Wu Changfeng was the disciple who had clashed with Wu Lingfeng earlier. He swaggered into the room, casually clasped his hands in greeting to Elder Lu, and then said, "Elder Lu, is there something you need?"

Elder Lu looked at him and smiled slightly. He then said, "Junior Brother Wu, please sit down. I called you here today because there's something I need to tell you about Wu Lingfeng. I originally thought that after I drove Wu Lingfeng away, he would obediently go back to his hometown to farm. But I didn't expect that not only did he not go back to his hometown to farm, but he also went to Area Three and became a manager there. I don't have a good relationship with the elder in charge of Area Three, so I can't deal with him anymore. I'm really sorry."

He wanted to tell Wu Changfeng about this, since it was Wu Changfeng who caused this whole thing. Elder Wu was quite satisfied with how he had handled Wu Lingfeng's situation, but now that he heard that Wu Lingfeng had gone to work as a manager in Area 3, Elder Lu was sure that Wu Changfeng would not let Wu Lingfeng off the hook.

Sure enough, upon hearing Elder Lu's words, Wu Changfeng's expression immediately changed. He snorted coldly and said, "Fine, I really didn't expect this guy to still be able to stay here. Don't worry, it's just Area Three, right? Leave this matter to me. Does he really think that just because he's moved to a different place, he can continue to be a manager without worry? He's dreaming." After saying that, Wu Changfeng stood up and turned to leave.

Elder Lu smiled as he looked at Wu Changfeng. This gun was really effective. Now he just hoped that Wu Changfeng could deal with Wu Lingfeng quickly.

Wu Lingfeng was unaware of all this. He went to work as usual today, but he was in a good mood. He wasn't angry yesterday. He thought he wouldn't get any rewards, but unexpectedly, he received quite a few. This puzzled Wu Lingfeng, but he didn't ask too much. Rewards were a good thing, so he was in a very good mood today.

Besides, Wu Lingfeng also noticed Brother Hao. Brother Hao seemed to be in a good mood today. Although he didn't speak to him, his face wasn't gloomy either, which puzzled Wu Lingfeng. He didn't believe that Brother Hao would let him off so easily. Judging from his appearance, it seemed that he had accomplished something. If this matter was related to him, it meant that Brother Hao had probably taken some action today.

Thinking of this, Wu Lingfeng breathed a sigh of relief. He wanted to see what Brother Hao would do, so the two of them got along peacefully that day.

That evening, after returning to his room, Wu Lingfeng immediately began cultivating. He wanted to see if he would receive a reward again today, since he hadn't been angry at all and had even been quite happy. If he could still receive a reward under these circumstances, that would be wonderful.

To Wu Lingfeng's surprise, he not only received a reward today, but a considerable one, even more than the rewards he had received in the past few days. These rewards allowed him to directly upgrade to the Throne level, which made Wu Lingfeng overjoyed. He truly hadn't expected such a good thing to happen.

Early the next morning, Wu Lingfeng went to the outer sect disciples' management office. He planned to see the elders and tell them that he had reached the throne level.

However, as soon as he entered the management office, a manager approached Wu Lingfeng, cupped his fists, and said, "Manager Wu, the elder wants to see you in his office." Wu Lingfeng responded and went upstairs. He was quite curious; he hadn't yet told the elder about becoming a disciple of the throne, so why did the elder want to see him? Did the elder already know about this? Surely not.

He quickly arrived outside the elder's office. He knocked gently on the door, and the elder's voice came: "Come in." Wu Lingfeng went straight into the office.

As soon as he entered the office, the elder saw him and waved to him, saying, "You've come. Come and sit down." Wu Lingfeng responded and walked over.

When Wu Lingfeng reached the elder's desk, the elder began, "There's something..." He paused, then looked at Wu Lingfeng with some surprise and said, "You've broken through."

Wu Lingfeng smiled and said, "Yes, Elder, I broke through by chance last night. Elder, is there anything you need me for?"

"Hahaha, good, you've broken through! Excellent!" Upon hearing Wu Lingfeng's admission, the elder burst into laughter. He then stood up, took Wu Lingfeng's hand, and led him to the rest area. After they sat down, the elder said, "Someone, bring tea." Immediately, a servant responded and soon brought out two cups of tea. Wu Lingfeng had seen the servant before; the servant always stood in a corner of the study, almost invisible. Such a servant must be the elder's most trusted person, which was why Wu Lingfeng never considered avoiding him when speaking to the elder.

Wu Lingfeng picked up his teacup and took a sip. Only then did the elder speak, "Yesterday, someone contacted me, wanting me to get rid of you. I didn't agree. Can you guess who it was?"

Wu Lingfeng knew why the elder was being so polite to him today. The elder was only at the Throne level, and so was he. Now that he had become a Throne level disciple, he was eligible to become an inner disciple. Although he was a bit older, he still deserved the status of an inner disciple. Although he wasn't an inner disciple yet, his status was actually the same as the elder's, which was why the elder was being so polite to him.

Wu Lingfeng said in a deep voice, "Is it Wu Changfeng's brother?" He hadn't been idle these past few days. He had learned about Wu Changfeng's background. Wu Changfeng's brother, Wu Changling, was a disciple of the Qingyang Sect's Transmission Elder. It was precisely because of his brother's power that Wu Changfeng dared to act arrogantly in the outer sect. Now that someone had come to greet the elder, it must be Wu Changling.

Upon hearing Wu Lingfeng's words, the elder burst into laughter and said, "You're right, it is indeed Wu Changling. He came to greet me and asked me to drive you away. I did not agree. Originally, I wasn't very confident about my plan, but now I feel that I am much more confident."

Wu Lingfeng was taken aback, then looked at the elder with some confusion. The elder smiled slightly and said, "I originally thought I would withstand their pressure and see how they would react. If they dared to attack you again, I could report it to the sect directly. But now, you've become a Throne-level cultivator, so you can join the inner sect today. And yet, he wants to expel an inner sect disciple from the sect. This matter could be a big deal or a small one. If handled properly, dealing with them shouldn't be a problem."

Wu Lingfeng looked at the elder without speaking. The elder, seeing his expression, was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'm sorry, you don't know our plan yet, and you've been dragged into this. I'm actually working for the deputy head of the Transmission Hall. The deputy head of the Transmission Hall is my uncle. My uncle was originally the most likely candidate to become the head of the Transmission Hall, but the sect directly promoted Wu Changling's master to become the head of the Transmission Hall. We've been trying to find fault with Wu Changling's master, but we haven't found anything. Now, haven't they handed us a ready-made fault? How can we let them get away with this?"

Wu Lingfeng nodded, and the elder said, "Although we used you this time, don't worry, you will get your share of the benefits. Go to the inner sect to report in a little while and confirm your identity as an inner sect disciple. Then be careful and watch out for their retaliation. Don't worry, I will make some arrangements to ensure you are not in any danger."

Wu Lingfeng didn't say anything, he just nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be careful." He knew that he was already on the elders' ship, and it was too late to get off now. If he dared to get off at this time, the elders would not let him off. He had already offended Wu Changling and the others. If he offended the elders as well, even if he was a King-level cultivator, he would probably not have a good outcome.

The elder looked at him and said, "Alright, I won't keep you any longer. Go and collect your identity. I need to hand over this matter and inform the others so they can prepare as well. If the other party dares to make a move, we must make sure they suffer the consequences."

Wu Lingfeng responded, then stood up and walked out. After he left the small building, he flew directly towards the inner gate. The elder was standing by the window watching Wu Lingfeng. After Wu Lingfeng left, he murmured, "To be able to reach the Throne level in such a short time, what secrets do you have?" By the end, his eyes were filled with a layer of ice.

Meanwhile, Wu Lingfeng had arrived at the Inner Sect Disciple Management Office. The office was much larger than the Outer Sect Disciple Management Office. Wu Lingfeng walked into the small building and saw a large hall. There were many cultivators in the hall, pointing at the task board, and some people were handing in and accepting tasks. They seemed to be very busy.
