Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 16024 Warning
The reason why the independent cultivators didn't move before was because no one took the lead. Now that they see someone taking the lead, some of the independent cultivators are starting to get restless. However, they are still observing. They want to see how the Wu Gou Sect will deal with these sneaky guys.

But even after those people reached the main hall of Wu Gou Sect, Wu Gou Sect remained silent. At this point, the rogue cultivators couldn't wait any longer. Someone shouted, "Wu Gou Sect is finished! Charge! If we're too late, we won't get a single hair!" After saying that, that person rushed forward, and everyone else followed suit, and the entire Wu Gou Sect was thrown into chaos.

This chaos continued until the next day. By then, the Shangyang Sect members had all left via the teleportation array. Instead of returning directly to the Shangyang Sect, they went to another small sect, changed their appearance there, and left again via the teleportation array. They changed their appearance again and left again via the teleportation array. After several such trips, they finally returned to the Shangyang Sect.

The news of the incident at Wu Gou Sect has not yet spread. All the rogue cultivators who made a fortune in Wu Gou Sect have fled immediately. When they went to a new sect, of course they would not mention what happened at Wu Gou Sect. Moreover, many of them, like the people of Shangyang Sect, went to several sects before finally settling down in an inconspicuous one.

It wasn't until several days later that the trouble at Wu Gou Sect was truly discovered. This was when some rogue cultivators who had arrived at Wu Gou Sect found that all the rogue cultivators there had disappeared. After learning about the situation at Wu Gou Sect, they realized that Wu Gou Sect was finished, and they immediately spread the news.

The news quickly spread throughout the entire Shangyang Domain. As the number one sect in the Shangyang Domain, the Shangyang Sect immediately sent people to the Wu Gou Sect to find out what was going on. Unfortunately, after the Wu Gou Sect was destroyed by the Yang family, it was looted by those rogue cultivators multiple times. Moreover, when those rogue cultivators were robbing the Wu Gou Sect's belongings, conflicts broke out, resulting in countless battles, large and small. All traces of the incident disappeared, and even if they wanted to investigate, they couldn't find anything.

The Yang family, of course, kept this matter a secret, and they even rewarded everyone who participated in the operation—a fact unknown to outsiders.

The Qian family reacted the most to this incident. The Qian family had a very good relationship with Wu Gouzong. They never expected that Wu Gouzong would be destroyed. The Qian family wanted to know who had destroyed Wu Gouzong. So when Shangyang Sect sent people to Wu Gouzong to investigate the matter, the Qian family sent several experts to investigate as well.

After a thorough investigation at Wu Gou Sect's headquarters, they made a discovery: among the battle traces left at Wu Gou Sect's main hall, many contained faint traces of Shangyang Sect's spiritual energy fluctuations. They would not have noticed these traces if they hadn't investigated so closely.

While the people from Shangyang Sect were investigating the situation at Wugou Sect, an elder from the Yang family requested an audience with an elder from the Qian family. The two were of similar status, and when the elder from the Yang family came to request an audience, he spoke very politely. He said that he wanted to catch up with the Qian family and discuss the marriage arrangements of some of the family's disciples.

The Qian and Yang families have arranged marriages more than once or twice. However, one point is worth noting: the people chosen for these marriages are all members of the families who are not highly regarded. In other words, the true core disciples of both families have not participated in these marriages. So, although it may seem like the two families are in a marriage alliance, it is practically the same as not being in a marriage alliance at all. If any conflict arises between the two families, those who are in the marriage alliance will simply be pawns that can be discarded at any time.

An elder from the Qian family immediately received the elder from the Yang family. The two even went to a tavern for a couple of drinks. After they ordered their drinks, they started chatting. After a few words, the elder from the Yang family suddenly said, "You've heard about the Wu Gou Sect, haven't you? It's really unexpected that a sect could be wiped out like that. It's such a pity. I wonder who had such audacity."

Upon hearing this, the elder of the Qian family's expression changed slightly. He actually knew what was going on. Not many people in the Shangyang Sect knew about the Qian family's friendship with the Wu Gou Sect, so he didn't show it. Instead, he nodded and said, "Yes, it's really unexpected that the Wu Gou Sect was wiped out so easily."

The elder from the Yang family looked at him, a smile flashing in his eyes. Then he lowered his voice and said, "Why do you think the Wu Gou Sect was wiped out? Was it because someone coveted their sect's possessions, or because their sect did something they shouldn't have done, which led to their destruction?"

The Qian family elder was about to say he didn't know, but he suddenly froze, then stared intently at the Yang family elder, who picked up his wine glass and took a sip.

The Qian family elder stared intently at the Yang family elder before speaking, "What do you think?"

The elder of the Yang family smiled slightly and looked at him, saying, "I think this matter is definitely not simple. If it was really aimed at their sect's things, they wouldn't have wiped out the entire sect. After all, if this matter becomes too big, someone will definitely investigate. So I think it must be that the Wu Gou Sect did something that offended someone, and this time they offended someone they couldn't afford to offend, which is why they were wiped out."

The Qian family elder's breathing became heavier. He lowered his eyes slightly, not wanting the Yang family elder to see the emotions in them, and then he said, "You're right, I think so too." The Yang family member smiled slightly and said, "Yes, some people are like that. They think they're important and want to meddle in things they shouldn't be involved in. In the end, all that awaits them is death. So, it's better to be honest, otherwise, one day you won't even know how you died. What a pity, what a pity."

The elder of the Qian family responded and said nothing more. The two then drank a few more cups of wine before going home separately.

After returning to the Qian family, the elder immediately went to see the head of the Qian family. The head of the Qian family was sitting in his study. After the elder entered and bowed, he asked, "What is it?"

The head of the Qian family is named Qian Jiang. He looks to be in his forties and is very strong. However, his face is somewhat gloomy. The elder knew why he had such an expression and immediately said, "Patriarch, an elder from the Yang family asked to see me today to discuss the marriage between our two families' disciples."

Qian Jiang remained expressionless and said, "Then it's settled. What we've done before, we'll do today."

The elder responded, and then said, "Yes, patriarch, after we finished discussing it, when the two of us went to the tavern for a drink, the elder from the Yang family suddenly said some very strange things."

Qian Jiang looked at the elder and then asked, "What strange things are you saying?"

The elder spoke up, "He suddenly brought up the Wu Gou Sect. He asked me why the Wu Gou Sect was destroyed. Was it because someone coveted something from the Wu Gou Sect, or because the Wu Gou Sect did something it shouldn't have done, which led to its destruction?"

Upon hearing what the elder said, Qian Jiang's expression changed drastically, and he stared at the elder with eyes like lightning, saying, "Continue."

The elder clearly felt the pressure from Qian Jiang, but he still spoke up: "Yes, Sect Master, I felt there was something more to his words, so I asked him, 'What do you think?' He said that the Wu Gou Sect must have done something wrong and offended someone, which is why it was destroyed. He also said that some people think they are important and dare to interfere in things they shouldn't. What awaits them is death. It's better to be honest, otherwise you won't even know how you died."

Qian Jiang's face was ashen. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, you may leave." The elder responded, then bowed to Qian Jiang and left Qian Jiang's study.

After the elder left, Qian Jiang slammed his palm on the desk in the study. The next moment, his desk turned into a pile of dust, and everything on the desk fell to the ground. Qian Jiang gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence: "The Yang family is indeed ruthless." Then he stood there, panting heavily, before saying: "Guards."

Immediately, a servant entered from outside. Seeing the mess on the floor, he immediately knelt down. Qian Jiang then said, "Clean this up, bring me a new desk, and then inform all the elders who are at home to hold a meeting in the small council hall." The servant responded, then immediately stood up and left the study. He then went to arrange these matters, while Qian Jiang walked towards the small meeting room.

When he arrived at the small conference room, the other elders had not yet arrived. However, the elders soon arrived at the small conference room. As soon as they saw Qian Jiang, they immediately bowed to him. After all the elders had arrived, Qian Jiang looked at everyone and said, "I called you all here today to talk about the Wu Gou Sect."

Everyone was stunned when they heard him say this. Then, all their eyes turned to Qian Jiang, who looked at them and said, "This time, the trouble that happened to Wu Gou Sect was probably caused by the Yang family." Everyone was stunned again, but then their expressions changed. They all knew about how they had asked Wu Gou Sect to deal with Yang Qingyu, and they knew that the plan had failed. They just didn't expect that the Yang family would lock onto their target so quickly and wipe out Wu Gou Sect so easily. This was something they hadn't anticipated.

Qian Jiang looked at everyone's expressions and then told them what the elder had told him earlier. After hearing Qian Jiang's words, everyone's faces darkened. One elder said, "So it seems that this was done by the Yang family. And the fact that the Yang family sent someone to say those things means that they also know that the Qian family is behind this. Are they warning us?"
