Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 16232 Meeting

However, those people were overthinking things. They had no idea that what happened in Xingyang City was quickly learned by Gongliang Juewen. Gongliang Juewen immediately sent people to Xingyang City to check the situation. When he learned about the situation in Xingyang City, Gongliang Juewen was shocked.

All the aristocratic families in Xingyang City disappeared overnight. There were not even many signs of fighting in their families; they simply vanished. This surprised Gongliang Juewen, but he immediately sent people to take over Xingyang City. He had to restore order to Xingyang City as quickly as possible.

However, just as he sent people into Xingyang City, he suddenly discovered that the Myriad Laws Sect was also moving very quickly. They had already taken over all the businesses of the families in the city, and the businesses in the city had now resumed operation.

Now Gongliang Juewen was certain who had made the move. He had some doubts before, because in his opinion, the Wanfa Divine Sect should be dealing with the five major families right now. Why did they suddenly attack the families in Xingyang City, and so thoroughly? Most importantly, they even left a provocative message at the Xing family's place. This was not like the Wanfa Divine Sect's style of doing things.

Now he was certain that the ones who made the move this time were from the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. This was something Gongliang Juewen hadn't expected. However, he wanted to see what those aristocratic families would do. This time, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect had wiped out all the aristocratic families in a city and even provoked them. He believed that those aristocratic families would definitely react.

His guess was absolutely right. Those aristocratic families did indeed react. Upon hearing the news, they immediately sent people to Xingyang City to investigate. They discovered that the information they received was true: all the aristocratic families, large and small, in Xingyang City had been wiped out, and the properties left behind by those families had all fallen into the hands of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. Therefore, they could be certain that the operation was carried out by the Myriad Laws Divine Sect.

Moreover, they also saw the provocative stone left behind by the Myriad Laws Cult, which infuriated them. The five major families immediately informed all the other aristocratic families, including those that had not participated in the war. This was not to say that they wanted those families to get involved, but rather that they had to tell them that the Myriad Laws Cult harbored great hostility towards them and that they had to be careful.

Upon hearing the news, the other prominent families also held a meeting immediately, and this time all the major families participated.

Once everyone had arrived, an elderly man sitting at the head of the table spoke up: "I think everyone has seen the provocation from the Myriad Laws Sect, right? Let's discuss how to deal with this."

The old man who spoke had the surname Gongsun, and his family was recognized as the number one family in the Divine Kingdom. Of course, this was without regard to the royal family. Although the royal family was also a large family, the Aristocratic Family Alliance excluded the royal family, so no one would consider the royal family as part of the Aristocratic Family Alliance. Apart from the royal family, the Gongsun family was the number one family. The old man who spoke was named Gongsun Xing. He was currently the Prime Minister of the Divine Kingdom, and could be said to be second only to the emperor. This meeting was personally presided over by him, which showed how much importance the Aristocratic Family Alliance attached to this matter.

To be honest, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect was not taken seriously by the Aristocratic Alliance. In their eyes, although the Myriad Laws Divine Sect was quite strong, it was far inferior to their Aristocratic Alliance. If it weren't for the royal family, they wouldn't even have taken the Creation Divine Sect seriously, let alone a small sect like the Myriad Laws Divine Sect. Although the Myriad Laws Divine Sect had always been on the winning side in the struggle against the Creation Divine Sect, no one would believe that the Myriad Laws Divine Sect was stronger than the Creation Divine Sect in terms of overall strength.

It was precisely because of this mindset that they completely disregarded the Myriad Laws Cult. However, this very Myriad Laws Cult, which they disregarded, was now provoking them, which was unacceptable to them.

For many years, no one has ever dared to provoke them. Although the royal family would suppress them, they only dared to do so in secret. Although the sects would have some conflicts with them, they never dared to break off relations with them openly. As for the Creation God Sect, it goes without saying that although they were a tool in the hands of the royal family, used by the royal family to suppress them, the Creation God Sect only dared to have small-scale conflicts with them, and dared not to start a full-scale war with them, let alone provoke them. Therefore, this is the first time they have faced such a provocation, and it is precisely because of this that they attach such importance to it.

They were perfectly aware that while this provocation might seem ordinary—just a matter of venting their anger—it held a deeper meaning. Previously, no one dared to challenge them, but now someone did. It was like someone who had never dared to attack a god before suddenly punching him, causing the god to gain health. If the god couldn't swiftly and decisively eliminate this person, his authority would be lost, and he would fall from his pedestal.

The current Wanfa Divine Cult is the one who throws a punch at the gods. If the Aristocratic Alliance cannot deal with the Wanfa Divine Cult, then the Aristocratic Alliance will definitely not have an easy time in the future.

Knowing this, Gongliang Xing came to preside over this meeting, and the heads of all the families also came. They were well aware of how important this meeting was.

As soon as Gongliang Xing finished speaking, the Xie family patriarch said, "This matter arose because of us. Let me explain our thoughts. To be honest, our initial motivation for dealing with the Myriad Laws Divine Sect was profit. Everyone knows what the Myriad Laws Divine Sect does; they are just a new dog raised by the royal family. Our original idea was to beat this dog until it was spurred on and made it behave so it wouldn't dare to bite anymore. However, we didn't expect this dog to be a mad dog. Although we had the upper hand in our battles, they still bit us several times. And this time, they directly provoked all of us. Obviously, their previous politeness towards us was all an act. They have never taken us seriously. If we can't deal with them properly and eliminate them with swift and decisive measures, they will definitely continue to provoke us, and our aristocratic family alliance will be finished. In the future, I'm afraid anyone will dare to step on us."

His words drew nods from everyone. They all knew that the Myriad Laws Sect was a tool the royal family used against them. Regardless of whether the five major families would confront the Myriad Laws Sect this time, the sect wouldn't let them off the hook; conflict was inevitable, just a matter of time. This provocation from the Myriad Laws Sect was, in their view, deliberate, meant to show them all that the sect didn't take them seriously. This was their reason for needing to eliminate the Myriad Laws Sect.

At this moment, another family head spoke up: "This incident is not your fault. Judging from the Wanfa Divine Sect's style of doing things, they really don't take us seriously. So, whether you are here or not, our battle with the Wanfa Divine Sect is only a matter of time. We must find a way to deal with the Wanfa Divine Sect now, but doing so will not be easy. The Wanfa Divine Sect's strength is undeniable, and dealing with them will not be easy. Moreover, we still don't know where Zhao Hai, the leader of the Wanfa Divine Sect, usually stays. And don't forget, the royal family is behind the Wanfa Divine Sect. The royal family will not watch us completely destroy the Wanfa Divine Sect. They will definitely intervene, and the situation will only become more troublesome."

Everyone nodded again. They all agreed that the patriarch was right. Dealing with the Myriad Laws Cult was no easy task, because the Myriad Laws Cult had the support of the royal family, and its strength was already considerable. Eliminating them in one fell swoop would not be easy. Not to mention, just take the matter of dealing with the Creation Cult. The entire power of the Divine Kingdom was mobilized to destroy the Creation Cult. Of course, there may be some remnants left, but they can no longer cause any trouble.

Although the Myriad Laws Sect is not as strong as the Creation Sect, the whereabouts of its leader, Zhao Hai, remain unknown. Furthermore, the royal family would not allow them to destroy the Myriad Laws Sect, making it extremely difficult for them to deal with it.

At this moment, a family head spoke up: "No matter how difficult it is, we must deal with the Myriad Laws Cult. Even if we cannot eliminate them, we must cripple them."

Everyone nodded, but at the same time they felt a great headache. There was one problem they couldn't get around in order to deal with the Myriad Laws Cult: the royal family. They knew how powerful the royal family was, which was why they hadn't dared to break ties with them yet. The royal family was behind the Myriad Laws Cult, so they had to take the royal family into account when they wanted to eliminate the Myriad Laws Cult.

At this moment, a family head suddenly spoke up: "I think this matter is not as difficult as imagined. We dare not easily break ties with the royal family, and the royal family dares not easily break ties with us. So when we deal with the Myriad Laws Sect, we don't need to pay too much attention to the royal family. At most, the royal family will stop us when necessary. They dare not openly help the Myriad Laws Sect to deal with us."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Moreover, we do have allies, namely those sects. If we unite with those sects to deal with the Myriad Laws Divine Sect and cripple it in one fell swoop, then even the royal family might not dare to say anything. After all, no matter how powerful the royal family is, they won't turn against both us and the sects at the same time. In that case, even if the royal family doesn't want to suffer this loss, they will have to swallow it. At that time, the entire landscape of the Divine Kingdom will probably be rewritten."
