Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 16384 Ideas
Upon hearing the general's words, Gongliang Juewen immediately said, "Good, excellent! Now all we have to do is wait. I'd like to see how many of the Blood Slaughter Sect's people can die. No, we can't keep defending and being too passive. I think our previous thinking was correct. Our people are too concentrated. We always think about launching a large-scale attack, but we forgot that our enemy is not so easy to eliminate. We are prepared for a long-term battle, so we must have a long-term battle plan. The enemy is currently outnumbered, so why should we pursue annihilating them all in one go? Wouldn't it be better if we only focused on the lethality?"

His words stunned everyone, and then their eyes flickered. Gongliang Juewen's words made sense. The enemy was fewer in number than them, so why were they thinking of wiping them out in one fell swoop? The enemy was few in number, so that was perfect; they could just kill them.

At this moment, one of the family heads spoke up: "Does His Majesty mean that from now on, we will only attack to kill the enemy? And that we will act separately? No longer act as a group?"

Gongliang Juewen said in a deep voice, "Make the hunting of enemies a mission and issue it to those rogue cultivators. Whether they kidnap people from the Blood Slaughter Sect or kill members of the Blood Slaughter Sect, they will be rewarded upon their return. This mission can be accepted by various families, clans, and even the military. However, everyone must also have a garrison duty. Once someone accepts a garrison duty, they can accept the hunting mission. These two missions cannot be accepted at the same time. What do you think?"

Upon hearing Gongliang Juewen's words, everyone nodded in agreement. They thought Gongliang Juewen's method was excellent. Thinking of this, one of the family heads immediately said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Upon seeing their expressions, Gongliang Juewen knew they had agreed to his proposal, and a smile appeared on his face. He then said, "Alright, it's settled then. Send out the mission. My dear ministers, go back and prepare."

Everyone responded, and then they bowed to Gongliang Juewen. Gongliang Juewen stood up and left the hall, and only then did they leave.

After returning to his study, Gongliang Juewen immediately told Chang Jun about their decision. Chang Jun smiled upon hearing Gongliang Juewen's words and said, "Good, you did a great job. Your suggestion won't arouse their suspicion. All those who accepted the mission and came to our territory may be turned into the undead and then released. After they return, they will develop a new undead race. In this way, we may be able to solve the problem of the Divine Kingdom without a major battle."

Gongliang Juewen responded and then said, "But we haven't resolved the matter of the Creation God Sect. So many people have agreed that we should let the Creation God Sect go for now and let them deal with the sect. If I still strongly oppose it, then those people will definitely doubt me. So I also agreed to their approach."

Chang Jun didn't take it seriously. He smiled and said, "It's alright. Let them develop. Even if they keep developing, how far can they go? Don't worry."

Gongliang Juewen responded, and Chang Jun chatted with him for a few more minutes before hanging up. Gongliang Juewen breathed a sigh of relief. He now understood the situation of the Blood Slaughter Sect much better. To be honest, he really hadn't expected the Blood Slaughter Sect to be so powerful. He even had a feeling that even without the rest of the Blood Slaughter Sect members, Zhao Hai alone could take care of everyone in the Divine Kingdom. But Zhao Hai didn't do that. Instead, he had the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect fight against the people of the Divine Kingdom. At first, Gongliang Juewen didn't quite understand why Zhao Hai did this. With Zhao Hai's strength, if he wanted to, he could have easily improved the strength of all the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect and turned everyone in the Divine Kingdom into members of the Blood Slaughter Sect. There was no need for such trouble.

However, he has gradually come to understand Zhao Hai's approach. If Zhao Hai forces the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples to improve their strength, then the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples will have no time for cultivation and reflection, which is actually quite fatal. It's like a person who has never had much money since childhood and lives the most ordinary life. Suddenly one day, he wins a big prize and receives tens of millions in winnings. This will cause him to suddenly lose his goals and rationality. Many people who win big prizes end up with unhappy lives because the money comes too suddenly, and they simply don't have the ability to control it. Very few people can remain calm after suddenly receiving tens of millions. Therefore, many people who suddenly win the lottery don't end up living very happily.

If Zhao Hai had forcibly increased the strength of the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples, it would have been almost the same. If he had increased their strength all at once, without allowing them to think and cultivate, their understanding of power would never be thorough, and their strength would be limited, making further improvement impossible. Therefore, Zhao Hai did not directly increase their strength but provided them with the best environment to cultivate on their own. This way, their potential would not be limited, which is a good thing.

The reason Zhao Hai ordered the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples to attack the people of the Divine Kingdom was because cultivators cannot improve their strength through cultivation alone; they must also engage in combat. Sometimes, a cultivator's ideas may differ greatly from reality, so they must use battle to see if their ideas are wrong—this is extremely important. Although Zhao Hai couldn't simply abandon the Blood Slaughter Sect, Gongliang Juewen also noticed that Zhao Hai had been cultivating the sect's independence. How the Blood Slaughter Sect would develop if Zhao Hai were gone was a question he constantly pondered. Zhao Hai worried that if he were no longer there and the members of the Blood Slaughter Sect became too dependent on him, they wouldn't be able to survive. Therefore, Zhao Hai had been consistently cultivating the Blood Slaughter Sect's independence.

The disciples below might not understand Zhao Hai's actions. In their view, the Blood Slaughter Sect and Zhao Hai were one entity, and Zhao Hai could not leave the Blood Slaughter Sect. Therefore, Zhao Hai's actions seemed somewhat unnecessary.

However, Gongliang Juewen, as a superior, or rather, as an emperor and a family head, could understand Zhao Hai's actions very well. Over the years, Gongliang Juewen had been maintaining a balance in the Divine Kingdom, suppressing various forces. Even if there were no enemies, he would cultivate a few enemies for each force to prevent them from uniting or developing and strengthening themselves in peace. On the other hand, he was doing his best to develop the Gongliang family. He was very clear that no matter what, the strength of the Gongliang family was the foundation of everything. In his view, what Zhao Hai was doing was actually the same as what he was doing, so he could understand Zhao Hai very well.

It was precisely because he understood Zhao Hai that Gongliang Juewen respected him even more. He was very clear that everything Zhao Hai did was truly for the sake of the Blood Slaughter Sect.

Meanwhile, Wan Hai had already returned to the Wan family. Upon his return, he summoned all the elders of the Wan family to his study. After they arrived, Wan Hai directly told them about the contents of their discussion that day. After he finished speaking, the elders were quite surprised. One of the elders said, "In that case, it's a good thing. Letting the people of the Creation God Sect fight against the people of the Blood Slaughter Sect will greatly reduce our losses." The others all nodded in agreement.

Wan Hai glanced at them and then said, "I have another idea. Why don't we take advantage of this opportunity to earn more benefits for the family?"

The elders looked at Wan Hai with some confusion. Wan Hai looked at them and then said, "His Majesty has issued hunting and garrison missions, and there will be rewards. Some of these rewards will come from our family, and of course, some from other families, but most of them will come from the national treasury. This is a good opportunity to earn more benefits. If our family members can take on more missions, kill more Blood Slaughter Sect members, and abduct more ordinary people from Blood Slaughter Sect, then we can get these benefits, right? Moreover, His Majesty will not only not blame us for doing this, but will also reward us. This is definitely a good thing."

Upon hearing Wan Hai's words, one of the elders frowned and said, "This is indeed a good thing, but Patriarch, the losses from doing so will be significant. After so many battles, Patriarch should know the power of the Blood Slaughter Sect. They are too strong, and it will be extremely difficult for us to gain an advantage over them. If we send our disciples into their territory to kill or kidnap people, once they are discovered, those people may not be able to return. In this case, our losses will far outweigh our gains, which is not worthwhile."

Wan Hai glanced at them, then asked, "What if the strength of our family's disciples suddenly increases?"

The elders were all stunned for a moment, then a flash of inspiration struck them, and they immediately understood Wan Hai's meaning. However, their expressions all changed, and one elder hurriedly said, "No, Patriarch, this is absolutely unacceptable. We absolutely cannot allow anyone in the family to believe in the Creation God Cult. This is absolutely unacceptable."

Wan Hai glanced at the elder and then said, "I know what you're thinking, Twelfth Uncle. Once you've embraced the Creation God Cult, it's impossible to break away. If His Majesty really does purge the Creation God Cult in the future, then everyone who believes in the Creation God Cult will be purged. If our family believes in the Creation God Cult, then our family will also be purged. That's why you disagree with your family's disciples believing in the Creation God Cult. But what if we don't allow all our family's disciples to believe in the Creation God Cult? Wouldn't that solve the problem?"
