Bringing the farm to another world

Wan Hai sat in his study, frowning. He was still pondering Wen Wenhai's words. He understood that Wen Wenhai had been subtly warning him, almost explicitly telling him to transfer his family's disciples away. However, he hadn't agreed. He couldn't agree now. He had already contacted other families, and several sects had agreed to join their alliance. He had become the leader of these alliances. If he agreed to the sects' demands to transfer his family's disciples to other branches, it would be tantamount to surrendering to the sects. If he did that, even without the sects lifting a finger, the families and sects allied with him would likely turn against them. They wouldn't dare kill them, but they would certainly ostracize them. Their family's life would definitely be miserable then. So even though he understood Wen Wenhai's meaning, he couldn't agree and could only stubbornly resist.

Just as Wan Hai was about to contact other families to discuss launching the operation ahead of schedule, a knock came at the door. Wan Hai said, "Come in." The door was pushed open, and a member of the Wan family walked in. He bowed to Wan Hai and then said, "Patriarch, someone outside is requesting an audience. He says his surname is Liu and he is from the Liu family in the sect."

Wan Hai was taken aback, then frowned and said, "A member of the Liu family in the sect? You mean, he's from the Blood Slaughter Sect's Liu family?" The Wan family disciple nodded. A glint flashed in Wan Hai's eyes, and he said, "Please let him in." The disciple responded and turned to leave, while Wan Hai immediately stood up and walked to the door of the study. He wanted to see what this member of the Liu family wanted from him.

A moment later, the disciple from the Wan family led a man over. This man looked to be over fifty years old, not very tall, but he had a very imposing presence. His head was slightly raised, giving him an air of arrogance.

The man also saw Wan Hai. He clasped his hands in greeting to Wan Hai and said, "Greetings, Elder Wan. I am Liu E. Please forgive my intrusion in visiting."

Wan Hai quickly returned the greeting, saying, "Elder Liu, you're too kind. It's an honor for the Wan family that Elder Liu has come. Please, Elder Liu." He then gestured for them to enter, and the two went into Wan Hai's study.

After the two entered the study and took their seats as host and guest, Wan Hai looked at Liu E and said, "Elder Liu, did you come to see me today because you have something to tell me?"

Liu E glanced at Wan Hai and then said, "Elder Wan, are you contacting other families and sect leaders, preparing to negotiate with the sect to get preferential treatment?"

Wan Hai was stunned. He hadn't expected the other party to be so direct, and even to know their plan. This made his face very ugly. He looked at Liu E and asked, "Elder Liu, what do you mean? Did the sect send you?"

Liu E shook his head, then said, "No, I came here on my own. I came to cooperate with you, Patriarch Wan. I've been here for ages, and you haven't even prepared a drop of water. That's a bit unreasonable, isn't it?"

Upon hearing Liu E's words, Wan Hai was taken aback. Then, his eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Someone, bring tea." A disciple of the Wan family responded and soon brought up two cups of tea, placing them in front of Wan Hai and Liu E.

Wan Hai looked at Liu E with a smile and said, "Elder Liu, please. I am very interested in the cooperation you mentioned. Please tell me more about it."

Liu E nodded, picked up his teacup, took a sip, then put it down and continued, "There's no need to hide anything from you. It's like this: there are actually many families within the sect, and these families are all quite powerful. Although the sect has always been fair and has never mistreated anyone, this fairness is actually the greatest unfairness. Our families are so strong, yet we have to enjoy the same treatment as ordinary disciples. Is that fair? Of course not. That's why we've been wanting to talk to Elder Wen. We secretly contacted some people, planning to act soon, but then the Divine Kingdom suddenly joined the sect, and we heard about your situation. I think we can cooperate. If we unite, our strength will be even greater. Faced with such a powerful force, even Elder Wen will have to think carefully. Besides, we don't have any excessive demands, just some preferential treatment. That's only right, and the sect won't punish us for such a thing. What do you think?"

Wan Hai was overjoyed. He had been worried that if they caused trouble, the Blood Slaughter Sect would punish them. But if it wasn't just them causing trouble this time, and people within the Blood Slaughter Sect themselves started causing trouble as well, then things would be completely different, and their chances of success would be much greater.

However, Wan Hai still asked, "How many of you are there?"

Liu E said in a deep voice, "There are a total of 317 families, with a total population of around ten million."

Wan Hai was even more delighted. With so many families and so many people, plus his own family members, their chances of success were much greater. After all, those were over ten million elders from various sects. With so many people, the sects would have to consider their feelings. However, Wan Hai was still a little puzzled. He looked at Liu E and said, "Elder Liu, you shouldn't be considered a small family, right? Over three hundred families, why are there only over ten million people?"

Liu E shook his head and sighed softly, "You don't understand the situation of the sect. The sect doesn't want any family to become stronger, so the disciples of a family are usually dispersed. Moreover, no family is allowed to have servants. If you want someone to serve you, that's fine. The sect has puppets. Although those ordinary puppets are not strong in combat, they can still serve you. So, apart from some core members, the rest of our families will not listen to us. Even people from the same family will gradually break away from the family's control once they are assigned to other branches. Now they no longer consider themselves as family members. So, we can only organize this many people now. However, these people are all core members of their respective families, and their strength is very strong. There are about 300,000 kingdom-level experts alone."

Upon hearing Liu E's words, Wan Hai was startled, but then felt incredibly fortunate. Luckily, they wanted to negotiate with the sect instead of actually transferring the family's disciples to other branch halls. If that were the case, the Wan family would probably cease to exist in a short time. This time, they could add this clause to their negotiations with the sect.

Liu E looked at Wan Hai, as if he had guessed what Wan Hai was thinking. He said, "You did the right thing this time. When you first joined the sect, you negotiated with the sect. You had better include the condition of preserving your family in the deal. Otherwise, it won't be long before your family will only have some core members who will listen to you. The rest of your family members will no longer listen to you. It was precisely because we discovered this that we decided to unite and negotiate with the sect."

Wan Hai nodded, then said, "Okay, I agree to this cooperation, but we need to act quickly. Elder Wen talked to me today, and what he meant was that I should obey the sect's orders and send the family disciples to other branches. I did not agree, but I can only delay, but I can't delay for long."

Liu E said in a deep voice, "Alright, then hurry up. When do you plan to make your move?"

Wan Hai said in a deep voice, "We still need to wait a few more days. I won't hide it from you. The alliance we formed was signed in the Heavenly Dao Golden Book. Only in this way can none of us go back on our word or betray each other. If Elder Liu and you really agree to form an alliance with us, then you must also sign in this Heavenly Dao Golden Book. I wonder if you agree?"

Liu E didn't hesitate at all; on the contrary, he was very happy and immediately said, "Good, that's great, that's how it should be. We agree, of course we agree."

Wan Hai nodded and then said, "Elder Liu, how about this? Let's leave a contact number. I'll discuss it with the other sects and see when it's appropriate to sign. I'll let you know when everything is ready. What do you think?"

Liu E nodded and said, "Okay, we'll contact you later." After saying that, Liu E exchanged contact information with Wan Hai, and the two then discussed some details before Liu E took his leave.

After Liu E left, Wan Hai sent letters directly to the heads of the other families in their alliance, as well as to the sect leaders like Ying Di who were allied with them, asking them all to come to the Wan family, as he had something to discuss with them.

Soon, the heads of various families and the sect leaders all arrived. They were all invited to the Wan family's conference room. After everyone had arrived, Wan Hai looked at everyone and said, "I have some bad news and some good news to tell you. Let me tell you the bad news first. Elder Wen is very likely already aware of our plans. He called me over today and gave me a warning. He also wants to transfer Wan family disciples to other branch halls. I did not agree, but Elder Wen knows about our actions. That's for sure. We must act as soon as possible."

Upon hearing his words, everyone's faces turned grim. This was indeed bad news; if Wen Wenhai really found out about their actions, it would be very troublesome.

Wan Hai glanced at everyone and then continued, "Let me share some good news. Liu E, the head of the Liu family in the sect, just came to see me. He told me that there are many families in the sect that are preparing to unite and negotiate with the sect. There are more than 300 families in total, with nearly 10 million people in total, including hundreds of thousands of kingdom-level experts. This is a considerable force. They also know what we are doing and want to cooperate with us so that we can work together to negotiate with the sect."

Upon hearing Wan Hai's words, everyone was stunned for a moment, then their faces lit up with ecstatic joy. Ying Di immediately exclaimed, "Great! This news is fantastic! If people from our sects join us, the significance of this operation will be completely different. Our sects will have to seriously consider our requests!" (End of Chapter)
