Bringing the farm to another world

Wen Jing felt the time was right. He glanced at the elders and then said, "I think you all know my thoughts. I also want to disband the Zhenyu Sect. To be honest, I also feel that the Zhenyu Sect has no need to exist anymore. If we disband the Zhenyu Sect now, we can still maintain some goodwill with those disciples. But if we don't disband it, we might end up becoming enemies, with no goodwill left. Although even if we don't disband the Zhenyu Sect, we will still be fellow disciples, and they can't do anything to us, the sect is so big. If they really don't want to see us or help us, there's nothing we can do. So rather than us becoming enemies at that time, it's better to maintain some goodwill like we do now."

The elders and hall masters all fell silent. To be honest, they were really reluctant to disband the Zhenyu Sect. After all, it was a sect they had dedicated their lives to, and now that it was about to be disbanded, they were still reluctant to let it go.

However, they were also very clear that Wen Jing was right. If they did not disband their sect, they would probably become enemies with those disciples in the future.

Looking at the elders and hall masters, Wen Jing continued, "I know everyone is reluctant to disband the sect. To be honest, I am also a little reluctant. But I think this step is necessary. Of course, everyone can go back and think about it carefully. If you really don't want to disband the sect, then we will think of another way."

Upon hearing Wen Jing's words, the elders and hall masters exchanged glances, nodded, stood up, bowed to Wen Jing, and then turned and left.

Wen Jing watched them leave without saying anything. He simply summoned all the elders of the Wen family to his study. Once they were seated, Wen Jing asked them to sit down. After they were all seated, Wen Jing said directly, "I have formally informed the elders that I intend to disband the Zhenyu Sect. What are your thoughts on this?"

The elders of the Wen family were all stunned. Then they looked at Wen Jing with some confusion. Wen Cheng said, "Brother, have you thought it through? I think it's better to disband it. Now that we've all joined sects, keeping a Zhenyu Sect would seem incongruous. It's better to disband it sooner rather than later."

"Will they agree?" another elder asked.

Another elder spoke up, saying, "The sect's conditions are far too good. To be honest, the moment I learned about the sect's conditions, I knew that the Zhenyu Sect wouldn't last long. Because the sect's conditions are too good, how can those disciples be willing to listen to the Zhenyu Sect if they stay in the sect for too long? If some disciples are chosen by the sect and given special training in the future, their status and position will probably be higher than ours. Under such circumstances, it's unrealistic to expect them to listen to us."

Everyone nodded, and Wen Jing said, "If they don't agree to disband the sect, then I will resign from my position as sect leader. In short, I'm not playing with them anymore."

He paused for a moment, then looked at everyone and said, “I mentioned Gongliang Juewen’s warning to everyone before. I had a bad feeling about it, but the others in the Zhenyu Sect wouldn’t listen. Everyone thought it was better to maintain the status quo. But one person listened, and that was Qingxuan. Qingxuan officially disbanded the Tianxuan Sect. He listened. He said, why should we keep holding power? It’s just for some cultivation resources or techniques. But now the sect has given us everything, so what do we need power for? Power will only interfere with our cultivation time. So he disbanded the Tianxuan Sect. I think he’s right. What do we need power for now? Power is useless to us, so we don’t need it at all. If I don’t even need power, then what’s the point of me being the sect leader of the Zhenyu Sect? Not only will it not bring any benefits, but it will also leave the sect with the impression of being disobedient, which will be even less beneficial to our future development.”

After hearing Wen Jing's words, the Wen family members all nodded. They had become very familiar with the sect these past few days, and it was precisely because they understood the sect that they could comprehend Wen Jing's words. Continuing to be the sect leader of the Zhenyu Sect would indeed not be of any benefit to them.

At that moment, almost simultaneously, they all received a notification from the sect. They immediately took out their communication arrays and glanced at the notification. Upon seeing it, they were all stunned, because the notification was very simple. It simply stated that the sect had officially established the Tianxuan Branch Hall, with Qingxuan serving as the branch hall master. At the same time, the original disciples of the Tianxuan Sect would be dispersed to various halls of the sect, and disciples would be transferred from various halls of the sect to strengthen the Tianxuan Branch Hall. The notification also stated that this was a common practice of the sect.

After reading the notice, Wen Jing turned to look at the others and then asked, "What are your thoughts?"

Everyone was taken aback. They exchanged glances, and then Wen Cheng spoke up, "The sect is rewarding Sect Master Qingxuan for disbanding Tianxuan Sect. At the same time, the sect is informing all sects and families how it handles those who join, according to its usual practice." Everyone nodded. Wen Jing added, "That's right, that's what I think too. The sect is telling us that doing what Tianxuan Sect did is what the sect wants to see. We might not receive any further rewards for disbanding Zhenyu Sect now, since we weren't the first to do so, but we won't be punished either. However, if we refuse to do the same in the future, we might face punishment."

Everyone nodded. An elder from the Wen family spoke up: "Patriarch, we support you. It is true that the Zhenyu Sect has no reason to exist anymore. If those people disagree, Patriarch, you should resign from your position as sect leader. We cannot offend a sect for the sake of a sect leader who no longer exists. That would not do us any good."

Wen Jing nodded, then said, "Resigning from the position of Sect Master of Zhenyu Sect might be beneficial to the disciples of our family, which is why I am resigning from this position."

Everyone nodded, and Wen Cheng said, "We should indeed adapt to our current identities. After all, we are no longer in the Divine Kingdom. We are in the Blood Slaughter Sect, which is a stronger entity than the Divine Kingdom."

Wen Jing said, "When Qingxuan spoke to us today, he mentioned something else. He said that the Wan Hai family head had called him before, saying that he wanted to cooperate with him to unite all our sects and families to establish an alliance, and then use the power of this alliance to negotiate with the sects. He did not agree. As for whether we will agree, that is up to us to decide."

At this point, Wen Jing paused, then continued, "I think those families are crazy. With our current strength, how can we negotiate with sects? Before we joined a sect, we could negotiate with them, but now that we've joined, we want to form an alliance and negotiate with the sect? Aren't we crazy? What do you call that? To put it bluntly, that's treason! What makes them think they can negotiate with sects? Even at its strongest, the Divine Kingdom couldn't be a match for sects, let alone now. Most of the power in the former Divine Kingdom has joined sects. The royal family is a sect member, the military is a sect member, most of the independent cultivators are sect members, some smaller sects have long been sect members, and the Tianxuan Sect is already a sect member. Countless disciples under its command are also sect members. Under these circumstances, they actually want to negotiate with sects? Do they think they still have the right to negotiate with sects?"

Everyone in the Wen family nodded, and then Wen Jing said, "When Qingxuan spoke to us before, he said that we need to be clear about our identity. I think he is right. We do need to be clear about our identity. We are now members of the sect, so we shouldn't be half-hearted. That will not benefit anyone."

The Wen family members nodded again. Just then, Wen Jing's Heavenly Sphere showed that a phone call had come in. The caller was the sect leader of another major sect. Wen Jing glanced at it and then turned to Wen Cheng and the others, saying, "Someone called me. It seems to be about Qingxuan's appointment. It might just be a conference call. You should go back first."

The Wen family members all responded, then stood up, bowed to Wen Jing, and left the study. After they left, Wen Jing answered the phone. As soon as the call connected, he found that it was indeed a conference call, and all the sect leaders except for the Tianxuan Sect were present.

As everyone was talking, Wen Jing arrived, but no one noticed. Wen Jing didn't speak either; he wanted to hear what they were saying. He found that they were all talking about Qing Xuan's appointment. Some said that Qing Xuan had betrayed Tian Xuan Sect to gain an advantage for himself. Others said that it was a signal from the sect to tell everyone what they should do. Still others said that the sect wanted to dismantle Tian Xuan Sect. Everyone was arguing endlessly.

"Everyone, stop arguing." Tie Huanshan suddenly spoke up: "You've all seen the sect's appointments. Qingxuan is now the hall master of the Tianxuan branch. There's no point in arguing anymore. The most important thing now is what we should do next. What are your thoughts?"

The group exchanged glances, remaining silent for a long time. Finally, one of the sect leaders spoke up: "Isn't it obvious? The sect's intention is crystal clear: all our sects must disband like the Heavenly Profound Sect, and then disperse all their disciples to various branch halls. It couldn't be clearer; there's nothing more to say. Just do as they say." (End of Chapter)
