Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 15977 Revenge Team

The Flame Pirates retreated. They lost over a hundred men, but they also stole a great deal. The rumors were true; the Flame Pirates did indeed have a Kingdom-level expert, and the Qingyang Sect also had one. Furthermore, the Qingyang Sect was fighting on its home turf and had even fully activated its protective mountain formation. Yet, even so, the Flame Pirates still managed to retreat calmly, demonstrating their formidable strength.

As for Qingyang Sect, more than 300 people died this time, most of whom were low-level disciples. Wu Lingfeng did not die; he was injured, but not seriously, just superficial wounds, and has now recovered.

He returned to his room at this time. As for restoring the damaged buildings of the sect, it was not his responsibility as an inner disciple; others would take care of it. Wu Lingfeng only needed to go back to cultivate.

After returning to his room, Wu Lingfeng immediately began cultivating. He was confident that he would receive a substantial reward today. Sure enough, as soon as he started cultivating, countless streams of spiritual energy surged into his body. If it were ordinary spiritual energy, such a surge would likely have destroyed his meridians. However, this spiritual energy was a reward from the God of Wrath, so Wu Lingfeng was unharmed. The spiritual energy directly merged with his own, continuously elevating his cultivation level. In just this one cultivation session, he reached the high-level Throne stage. When Wu Lingfeng stopped cultivating, he himself could hardly believe it, because at his current cultivation speed, he would break through to the Royal Chariot stage in no time.

In the Qingyang Sect, the Imperial Carriage level is already considered a minor expert. Although he will still be an inner disciple, he will have a relatively high status among the inner disciples. Most importantly, if he really reaches the Imperial Carriage level, with his current strength, he will not be considered old at all among the Imperial Carriage level experts. At that time, the sect's attention to him will be completely different.

A look of wild joy flashed across Wu Lingfeng's face. He wanted to jump up and shout, but he held back. He was no longer twenty years old. If he were, he would have jumped up and shouted long ago, but he wasn't. He was fifty years old now, so he suppressed his laughter, but the joy was irrepressible. His face was full of wild joy. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out. After a while, he returned to normal. He let out a long breath, and then he walked outside. When he pushed open the door, he saw the situation outside.

Outside, many disciples are busy rebuilding the sect's destroyed buildings. Looking at them, Wu Lingfeng's smile slowly faded. He saw a reflection of his past self. If his strength hadn't improved, he would be among those working disciples. The cultivation world is cruel; it's like a pyramid, with ordinary people always at the bottom, and fewer people at the top. Wu Lingfeng has already taken a step upward, and he wants to take another, so he must work even harder.

He thought about it and realized that his way of working hard should be different from others. Others worked hard on their own, but he worked hard to make others angry. Thinking of this, Wu Lingfeng couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Then he went back into his room and closed the door. He didn't plan to go out today.

In the following days, Qingyang Sect remained tense. All the damaged buildings in the sect had been restored, but the atmosphere in the sect was still oppressive. Although the sect did not say how big the losses were, Wu Lingfeng was very clear that the sect had suffered great losses. At least two warehouses had been breached by the Flame Pirate Gang, and the contents of the two warehouses had been stolen. This was a really big loss for Qingyang Sect.

The loss of the two warehouses is a significant loss not only for Qingyang Sect, but for any sect. Moreover, Qingyang Sect has lost face considerably this time.

No matter what, Qingyang Sect is a mid-level sect with a kingdom-level expert, yet it was attacked by a pirate group. It's easy to imagine that in the future, when people mention Qingyang Sect, they will definitely think of this incident. When Qingyang Sect disciples go out, they will probably not be able to hold their heads up in front of disciples from other sects.

However, Wu Lingfeng didn't care about all that. These things were none of his business. He was just a minor inner disciple, and he didn't care about these things. But there was some news that did concern him: Elder Lu, the outer sect elder in charge of Area Seven, had actually died in this battle.

Yes, Elder Lu, who had expelled him from Area Seven, was dead. He died at the hands of a pirate, and his sudden death surprised even Wu Lingfeng, making him realize once again the cruelty of the cultivation world. Elder Lu's rise to that position was no easy feat. The Qingyang Sect had no shortage of Throne-level cultivators, and Elder Lu was one of them. Becoming an outer sect elder was already quite an achievement. He could have lived a peaceful life, perhaps even building a small family. But now he was dead. It was said he did indeed have a small family, and he was the highest-ranking member within it. Now that he was gone, no one knew what would become of his family.

Although Wu Lingfeng had a grudge against Elder Lu, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness upon hearing the news. To hear that someone had died so suddenly, especially someone you knew so well, it was impossible not to feel any emotion. Wu Lingfeng was no exception.

Wu Lingfeng still goes to the Inner Sect Management Office and the Outer Sect Management Office every day. He still receives a lot of rewards every day. He calculated that he will be able to break through to the Imperial Carriage level in about a month.

Just as he was cultivating step by step, he suddenly received a message that the sect had assigned him a mandatory task, which was personally handed over to him by a disciple of the sect. This made Wu Lingfeng feel uneasy.

Within the sect, tasks are divided into two types: mandatory tasks and ordinary tasks. Mandatory tasks are usually assigned directly to the disciple by the sect and cannot be refused. If you refuse, you will be punished with death or, at the very least, confinement to seclusion. Ordinary tasks are those where an inner disciple typically only needs to complete five tasks to fulfill the sect's requirements. In other words, Wu Lingfeng only needs to complete five tasks a year, and then he can relax for the rest of the year. If he doesn't worry about income, he can do nothing for a year without anyone blaming him. However, the task the sect has given him this time is a mandatory one, and with just one of these mandatory tasks, he doesn't need to do any other tasks.

Of course, this task also depends on the time frame. For example, if you accept a task to help the sect guard the herb garden, and this task is for one year, then you only need to accept one task. The number of tasks is not fixed; it depends on what kind of task you accept.

Wu Lingfeng carefully opened the notification slip, wanting to see what kind of mission he was tasked with this time. When he opened the slip, he was stunned, and then his face turned very ugly.

The task is actually quite simple. The sect needs to form a team called the Revenge Team. As you can tell from the name of the team, this is the Qingyang Sect's plan to retaliate against the Flame Pirate Gang. And this team's mission is indeed this: the Qingyang Sect forms a Revenge Team to track down the Flame Pirate Gang's whereabouts and then attack them. That is the mission of the Revenge Team.

This is an extremely dangerous mission. The Flame Pirates are a force to be reckoned with. They were able to storm the Qingyang Sect, plunder it once, and then escape unscathed. This in itself demonstrates their strength. Now, they want to attack the Flame Pirates? Isn't that just courting death?
Wu Lingfeng understood the sect's intentions. The sect had been attacked by the Flame Pirate Gang and lost face. To regain face, the sect had formed this team. The sect probably hadn't even considered that this team would actually attack the Flame Pirate Gang. They had created this team just for show, to demonstrate to outsiders that the Qingyang Sect was not a coward and that they were going to retaliate against the Flame Pirate Gang. Even if they hadn't found the Flame Pirate Gang, it wasn't their fault. They were going to retaliate; they just hadn't found them yet.

This may seem harmless, but it's actually quite dangerous. Don't the Flame Pirates have any pride? They robbed so many sects before, and none of them thought of retaliating. Now your Qingyang Sect has put together such a team and says you want to retaliate against us. What are you trying to do? Do you really think the Flame Pirates are pushovers and wouldn't dare to attack us?
Moreover, in Wu Lingfeng's view, the Flame Pirate Gang would definitely attack them. After Qingyang Sect formed this revenge team, they became the first to be targeted. Previously, the smaller sects attacked by the Flame Pirate Gang either dared not or lacked the ability to form revenge teams. However, now that Qingyang Sect had formed a revenge team, it was a very dangerous signal for the Flame Pirate Gang. If the Flame Pirate Gang allowed Qingyang Sect's revenge team to survive, then whichever sect they attacked in the future would also form a revenge team. If there were more and more such revenge teams, the Flame Pirate Gang would be finished. Therefore, in order to dispel the idea of ​​other sects forming revenge teams, the Flame Pirate Gang would definitely attack Qingyang Sect's revenge team with all their might. It can be said that from the moment this revenge team was formed, their fate was sealed: only death.

It was precisely because he realized this that Wu Lingfeng's expression turned so pale. He instantly understood that he had been tricked. As for who tricked him, Wu Lingfeng could figure it out with his toes: it must be Wu Changling. Although he had many enemies, there were only a few who really wanted him dead, and Wu Changling was definitely one of them, and he had the ability to do so.
