Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 16201 A Reprimand

"You mean, all the experts and elite disciples of the Creation God Cult have disappeared, and the cult leader and several important bishops have also disappeared?" Gongliang Juewen looked at the person in front of him. This person was sent by him to monitor the Creation God Cult, and the news he brought back could not possibly be false.

The man nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty. Overnight, everyone disappeared without a trace. No one knows where they went. However, they are still commanding the Creation God Cult because they all carry communication arrays. They can use the communication arrays anywhere, so it is almost impossible for us to find them."

Gongliang Juewen's face immediately darkened, and he then asked, "What do they want to do? Rebel?" Gongliang Juewen sensed a sense of unease from the actions of the Divine Sect.

The man said in a deep voice, "I heard that some people from the Creation God Sect have made contact with people from the Myriad Laws God Sect, but I don't know what they said."

Gongliang Juewen frowned and said, "You can go now. Continue to monitor the people from the Creation God Cult. I want to see what they're up to." The man responded, bowed to Gongliang Juewen, and then left.

Meanwhile, a bishop from the Creation God Cult arrived directly at the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws in Qingyu City. He did not hide his identity and came to the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws openly. His actions attracted everyone's attention.

Xu Ying heard about it and immediately invited the man to his room. The man entered Xu Ying's room, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Greetings, Bishop Xu."

Xu Ying did not return the greeting, but looked at the man calmly and said, "I don't believe you are unaware of the conflict between our two sects, so there's no need for you to go through with all that formality. Just tell me what you're here for."

The bishop of the Church of Creation was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "I came here on the orders of the Church Leader. There are conflicts between our two churches, and we have been fighting recently. But this kind of fighting can't go on forever. So our Church Leader has a suggestion and would like to hear Bishop Xu's opinion."

Xu Ying said in a deep voice, "Speak."

The man laughed and said, "Our leader said that there's no point in us fighting like this. If we fight too fiercely and suffer too much loss, it won't benefit either of us. So our leader's idea is that from today onwards, we should stop all fighting and change our wager. If your Myriad Laws Divine Sect wants to build a temple in that city, that's fine. We can have a wager. This wager doesn't require kingdom-level experts, or even sending any experts. We can even have throne-level disciples wager. The loser will automatically leave that city, and the winner will stay. What do you think?"

Xu Ying was taken aback. He really hadn't expected the Creation God Sect to propose such a method. This truly surprised him. Xu Ying continued, "I'm curious, you're clearly at a disadvantage by doing this. You have properties in and outside the city, while we have nothing. If we win, all those things will belong to us. If we lose, we'll just have to leave the city. Isn't that a huge loss for you?"

The man's smile remained unchanged; he simply said calmly, "We can afford to lose money."

Xu Ying was speechless for a moment. He really didn't know what to say, but he quickly looked at the man with a gloomy expression and said, "What if I don't agree?"

The man's smile remained unchanged as he calmly said, "Then let's wage a full-scale war. Whether inside or outside the city, I guarantee that none of you members of the Myriad Laws Cult will be able to leave the temple."

Xu Ying's expression changed. He looked at the man and said, "Do you dare? Don't forget His Majesty's orders."

The smile on the man's face remained unchanged, as if it were painted on. He looked at Xu Ying and said calmly, "That would require someone who could capture us. Besides, there are many things in this world that are not decided by His Majesty alone."

His words silenced Xu Ying. Xu Ying understood what he meant. It seemed that the Creation God Cult was serious this time. They were no longer disregarding Gongliang Juewen's orders. But that made sense. If the people of the Creation God Cult really didn't care about anything, then Gongliang Juewen would have a headache.

Xu Ying stared intently at the man, who still wore a smile. After a while, Xu Ying gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I agree."

The man's smile remained unchanged. He clasped his hands in a fist salute to Xu Ying and said, "A gentleman's word is his bond." Xu Ying replied in a deep voice, "A swift horse, a whip!"

The man smiled and said, "Then I'll take my leave." With that, he left.

After the man left, the anger on Xu Ying's face vanished instantly. He looked at the man's back and smiled slightly, saying, "Well done, the Creation God Sect. You really have come up with a way to break the deadlock. I underestimated you. But it doesn't matter. Our goal is not to eliminate you right now. We just need to attract other people's attention. The betting competition can also attract their attention."

After that person left, Xu Ying began to make arrangements for attacking other cities. However, not long after, a person arrived at the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws. Many people came to the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws every day, but the person who came today was somewhat special. Although his clothes were ordinary, he had a fair complexion and no beard, and he carried a hint of effeminate aura. As soon as he entered the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws, he went straight to a disciple of the Blood Slaughter Sect and whispered to the disciple, "I am an eunuch, sent by His Majesty. I have some questions to ask your Bishop Xu. Take me to see him."

The Blood Slaughter Sect disciple was taken aback. He then glanced at the eunuch with some confusion. The eunuch moved his hand, and a gold token appeared in his palm. The Blood Slaughter Sect disciple looked at the token and saw a flying dragon engraved on it. He knew that the token was indeed from the palace, because the flying dragon was the family totem of the Gongliang family, and it had become a symbol of the Gongliang family's identity. Now that the Gongliang family was the royal family, the flying dragon naturally represented the royal family as well.

The Blood Slaughter Sect disciple glanced at the eunuch and then said, "Please follow me." He then led the eunuch towards Xu Ying's room. When they arrived at Xu Ying's room, the disciple knocked on the door, and Xu Ying's voice came from inside, "Come in." The disciple pushed open the door and went in, while the eunuch waited outside.

A moment later, the door opened, and Xu Ying and the Blood Slaughter Sect disciple came out together. He glanced at the eunuch, then bowed to him and said, "Greetings, sir. Please come in." He didn't address the eunuch as "eunuch," but directly called him "sir," because he knew that many eunuchs didn't like being called "eunuch."

Upon hearing Xu Ying's address, the eunuch smiled and went straight into the room. Once inside, Xu Ying waved for the Blood Slaughter Sect disciple to leave. After the disciple left, Xu Ying clasped his hands in a fist salute to the eunuch and said, "Sir, what brings you here?"

The eunuch glanced at Xu Ying and smiled slightly, saying, "Actually, it's nothing much. His Majesty just sent me to ask why the people from the Creation God Sect came to find you."

Xu Ying hurriedly replied, "Reporting to the eunuch, the people from the Creation God Sect came to me only to tell me one thing: from now on, all conflicts between our two sects will be resolved through wagers. Whenever we want to build a new temple in another city, we must have a wager with them. The winner stays, and the loser leaves that city."

Upon hearing Xu Ying's words, the eunuch raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is it really that simple? You've agreed?"

Xu Ying said in a deep voice, "It really is that simple. We had no choice but to agree. If we didn't, they would take action against us in the city. If that happened, the impact would be too great. So we agreed."

Upon hearing this, the eunuch frowned and said, "Alright, I understand. His Majesty also asked me to pass on a message to you: remember your identities and your missions. If you forget these, His Majesty will forget you as well."

Xu Ying quickly replied, "Yes, sir. We, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, will never forget His Majesty's orders. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, we will never forget our identity, nor will we forget the mission Your Majesty has given us."

The eunuch nodded and said, "That's good. My mission is complete. I'll be leaving now." He then turned to leave.

Xu Ying quickly said, "Please wait, sir. This is just a small gift, nothing more. Please accept it. It's hard work for you to relay the orders, so this is our way of showing our respect." As she spoke, Xu Ying handed a spatial bag to the eunuch.

Upon hearing Xu Ying's words, the eunuch was taken aback for a moment. He glanced at the spatial bag, then without any hesitation, he put it away. The eunuch then said, "You're very thoughtful. I'll remember you." After saying that, he walked away. Xu Ying escorted him all the way out of the temple before returning to her own room.

The eunuch simply took the teleportation array and left. After leaving Qingyu City, he arrived at the next city and took out his spatial bag. His eyes lit up when he saw its contents. The bag was filled with crystals—not ordinary crystals, but the finest ones. Each crystal was like a piece of crystal, almost transparent, and perfectly uniform in shape, resembling a brick. Such crystals were extremely rare, and the spatial bag was overflowing. The bag itself wasn't very large, only about one cubic meter, but even so, the quantity of crystals was astonishing. The eunuch had received many gifts, but he had never encountered anyone as generous as Xu Ying. (End of Chapter)
