Bringing the farm to another world

"You mean, the people of the Myriad Laws Cult and the Creation Cult will decide who can establish themselves in the city through a wager?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, that's what the bishop of the Church of All Laws said."

"How dare they make such a decision on their own! It seems they have truly placed themselves on the same level as the Creation God Cult. I ordered them to deal with the Creation God Cult and kill their people, yet they dare to gamble with the Creation God Cult. They are truly courting death."

The eunuch stood there motionless, while Gongliang Juewen spoke these words calmly. Although his tone was calm, the eunuch knew very well that this was an expression of extreme anger.

Gongliang Juewen looked at the eunuch and then said, "Go and call Wu Daban over." The eunuch responded and then carefully left the room.

After leaving the room, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he was worried about Xu Ying, because he knew who Wu Daban was. Wu Daban was also a eunuch, but he was different from ordinary eunuchs. Ordinary eunuchs were just eunuchs, but Wu Daban was an eunuch who controlled a secret force in the palace. Moreover, his strength was extremely powerful. It was said that the people Wu Daban controlled were all eunuchs, but they were trained from childhood to practice a special kind of skill. This skill was extremely powerful and best suited for assassination. It was said that they had never failed. In fact, very few people knew about this. Only some great families and some major sects knew about it.

The eunuch walked through the palace and soon arrived at a very secluded corner where there was a small courtyard. The eunuch walked to the gate, gently knocked on it, and then an old voice came from behind him: "Who is it?"

The eunuch hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, His Majesty requests your presence."

Wu Daban has been in the palace for many years, so some of the palace eunuchs call him "Old Ancestor".

The courtyard gate opened, and an old eunuch who looked very old walked out. His hair was completely white, he was wearing an ordinary eunuch's uniform, his back was hunched, his eyes were cloudy, and he walked very slowly, as if he might run out of breath and die at any moment.

However, the eunuch dared not be negligent. He immediately bowed to the old eunuch and said, "Greetings, Ancestor."

The old eunuch nodded and then said, "Let's go." The eunuch responded and led the way. The old eunuch followed him and walked forward for a while before arriving at Gongliang Juewen's study. The eunuch then stepped forward and gently pushed open the door, and the two of them went directly into Gongliang Juewen's study.

There was a rule in the palace that eunuchs could enter Gongliang Juewen's study without announcing their presence, but anyone else, regardless of who they were, had to announce their presence first.

After the two entered the room, they bowed to Gongliang Juewen in unison. Gongliang Juewen looked at the old eunuch and immediately said, "Wu Daban, no need to be so polite, please rise."

The old eunuch responded and straightened up, but even as he did, his back remained hunched. Gongliang Juewen then spoke, "Wu Daban, there is something I need you to arrange. Previously, because the Creation God Sect was becoming increasingly arrogant, I promoted a sect called the Myriad Laws Sect to deal with the Creation God Sect. However, I did not expect that recently the Myriad Laws Sect would reach an agreement with the Creation God Sect. They want to decide who can stay in the city through a wager. I am very unhappy. This is not what I want them to do. Therefore, I want Wu Daban to handle this matter."

Wu Daban did not immediately agree, but instead asked Gongliang Juewen, "This old servant asks Your Majesty, does Your Majesty intend to suppress the Creation God Sect, or does Your Majesty intend to make life difficult for others as well?"

Upon hearing Wu Daban's words, Gongliang Juewen was taken aback. Then, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Wu Daban and said, "Of course, I want to make life difficult for everyone. They have enjoyed peace for too long these past few years, so long that they have developed inappropriate thoughts. However, their strength has also grown rapidly in recent years, so dealing with them is not an easy task. Does Wu Daban have a solution?"

Wu Daban said, “Your Majesty, this old servant believes this is an opportunity, an opportunity to bring everyone in. However, we need to do some things first, and these things must start with the Creation God Sect. The Creation God Sect has offended many people over the years, and this incident has caused the Creation God Sect to lose face. Many people actually want to take action, but no one has yet done so. Therefore, we only need to add fuel to the fire, and they will start fighting on their own.”

Gongliang Juewen asked, "But won't things eventually spiral out of control?" Wu Daban replied in a deep voice, "No, Your Majesty only needs to keep an eye on them. If someone is strong, suppress them; if someone is weak, support them. In this way, they can exhaust themselves. Once they've worn themselves down to a certain point, even if they stop, it will be too late, because by then, they will have formed a blood feud, which is exactly what Your Majesty needs."

Gongliang Juewen nodded, then asked, "What does Wu Daban plan to do?"

Wu Daban said, "First, kill the people of the Creation God Sect, but make sure the Creation God Sect can't find out who killed them. After killing them a few times, slowly reveal a flaw, making them think that it was those aristocratic families who did it. And the Creation God Sect will definitely take action against those aristocratic families in order to retaliate. When those aristocratic families see that the Creation God Sect is taking action against them, they will definitely retaliate. At that time, the two sides will start fighting. When the two sides start fighting, we will find an opportunity to take action against the Myriad Laws God Sect, making the people of the Myriad Laws God Sect think that it was those sects who did it. At that time, the Myriad Laws God Sect will deal with those sects. When all sides are fighting, our goal will naturally be achieved."

Gongliang Juewen frowned and said, "Can this be done? If those people find out, they won't fall for it again."

Wu Daban said in a deep voice, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this old servant is confident. Those people only think that we are capable of assassination, which is what we have been trying to make them believe for many years. But in fact, we can imitate the techniques of various families and sects, and they are very similar. Even they themselves cannot tell the difference, so they will never be able to find out."

Upon hearing what Wu Daban said, Gongliang Juewen's eyes lit up immediately, and he said right away, "Good, very good. Then this matter will be left to Wu Daban. I will only look at the result, not the process."

Wu Daban responded without saying a word, and Gongliang Juewen immediately dismissed him. Wu Daban bowed to Gongliang Juewen before leaving.

Gongliang Juewen had complete trust in Wu Daban. Wu Daban was a servant of the Gongliang family and had served three heads of the Gongliang family in his life. Gongliang Juewen was the third. Gongliang Juewen respected Wu Daban, but he was the emperor. Even if he respected Wu Daban, he could not be too polite to him, and Wu Daban would not allow it.

No one doubted Wu Daban's loyalty to the Gongliang family. As a eunuch, he had no children and lived in his own small courtyard. He rarely left the courtyard unless necessary. However, he was the Gongliang family's most sinister and poisonous dagger hidden in the shadows.

Gongliang Juewen felt relieved to entrust the matter to Wu Daban. He didn't even need to ask Wu Daban how to do it, because Wu Daban would arrange everything. Gongliang Juewen knew very well that Wu Daban was originally the chief eunuch in his grandfather's service, a very high position. When his grandfather was alive, Wu Daban was known as the prime minister of the inner palace, which meant that his ability was no less than that of the prime minister of the court. This shows how capable he was.

After his grandfather passed away, Wu Daban served Gongliang Juewen's father as the Grand Eunuch. However, he gradually withdrew from the limelight. This was his own choice. He didn't want too many people to notice him. By withdrawing from the limelight, he believed that people outside would gradually forget him. He was very clear about his role. He was a dagger used to kill. A dagger should be hidden and used suddenly for the best effect. Otherwise, the power of the dagger would be reduced. Wu Daban wanted to gradually hide himself away.

By the time Gongliang Juewen succeeded to the throne, Wu Daban's name had been forgotten by many people. Some members of prominent families even thought that Wu Daban had died long ago, which was exactly the effect that Wu Daban wanted to achieve.

Therefore, Gongliang Juewen had absolute confidence in Wu Daban. He believed that Wu Daban could definitely handle this matter well. It was precisely because he knew how capable Wu Daban was that Gongliang Juewen was so at ease, and that he did not object when Wu Daban put forward his idea.

Wu Daban slowly returned to his room. After returning, he walked to the middle of the room and gently stomped his feet twice. The floor of his room slowly sank down, eventually forming a staircase. Wu Daban slowly walked down the staircase, descending several hundred steps, until he appeared in an underground space.

This underground space is very large, probably around 10,000 square meters. The entire underground space is circular, with a platform in the middle, and holes in the surrounding walls. These holes are not very big, with the openings only about four feet wide. Inside the holes are coffins. These coffins are all made of a black material and covered with red runes, which looks very eerie.

The steps led all the way to a platform in the center of the space. Wu Daban stood on that platform, looking at the densely packed coffins all around him, a smile spreading across his face. He then spoke, "My children, it's finally time for us to make our move again." He then let out a series of owl-like laughs, echoing throughout the space, utterly chilling; anyone who heard it would feel a chill run down their spine. (End of Chapter)
