Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

Chapter 2157: Silent Exchange

There were a lot of people in the meeting. Some of them were standing at the back and had no idea what was happening in front. They were also using their spiritual force to check the situation. Because of this, this spiritual force of the surroundings was quite chaotic. Long Xiang would have no worries using his spiritual force to check the direction that Zhao Hai gestured towards.

When he used his spiritual force to scan, Long Xiang immediately understood what Zhao Hai meant. He discovered that the Sword Hegemon Sect, Imperial Beast Sect, and the Matchless Sword School were together, looking at the conflict between Long Xiang and the Tyrant Blade Sect with a proud look on their faces. Although their smug expressions disappeared almost immediately, Long Xiang was still able to notice it.

Long Xiang couldn’t help but get angry. He understood that the Sword Hegemon Sect Elders’ outburst wasn’t for the good of the entire team. His goal was to cause conflict between the Long Clan and the Tyrant Blade Sect.

Upon thinking about it further, Long Xiang hated the situation even more. If it wasn’t for Zhao Hai, the enmity between the Long Clan and the Tyrant Blade Sect might have been cemented. Then the Sword Hegemon Sect’s goal would have been accomplished.

Becoming enemies with the Tyrant Blade Sect would bring no benefit to the Long Clan. Not only would the clan offend the Tyrant Blade Sect, but they would also offend a precious talent that was Zhao Hai. This would only bring harm to the clan and nothing else.

Most importantly, Long Xiang didn’t like the feeling of being taken advantage of. However, he didn’t confront the Sword Hegemon Sect Elder immediately. He knew that the Imperial Beast Sect and the Matchless Sword School would stand with the Sword Hegemon Sect. This would divide the group into two.

Long Xiang’s attention was also on Zhao Hai. He wanted to see what Zhao Hai wanted to do next. At this moment, he noticed Zhao Hai’s eyes turn towards Deng Wen.

Long Xiang looked at Deng Wen who was looking angrily at him. Although Long Xiang was expressionless, when he looked at Deng Wen, his eyes turned back to Zhao Hai.

Deng Wen was paying attention to Long Xiang’s actions. He discovered that Long Xiang’s attention wasn’t on one thing. He immediately noticed Long Xiang’s unusual eye movement.

If it was a normal situation, people wouldn’t have noticed such fast movements of the eye. However, Long Xiang deliberately slowed down. Deng Wen wasn’t a stupid person, he immediately felt that Long Xiang’s actions were unusual. He used his spiritual force to scan Zhao Hai and found that Zhao Hai’s eyes were slightly moving up and down.

Deng Wen’s heart couldn’t help but move. However, nothing was shown on his face. He continued to glare at Long Xiang. At this time, Long Xiang opened his mouth and said, “Deng Wen, do your words represent the Tyrant Blade Sect?”

Deng Wen could understand Long Xiang’s message, so he immediately replied, “Of course, what’s wrong Captain Long. Do you have anything to say?”

In a cold tone, Long Xiang replied, “If that’s the case, then I can only say nothing. However, all of the rewards for coming to the underground world will have nothing to do with your Tyrant Blade Sect. Do you agree?”

Deng Wen’s pupils shrank, then he coldly snorted and said, “Although my Tyrant Blade Sect isn’t rich, we don’t care about such things.”

Long Xiang replied, “Good. Then your Tyrant Blade Sect can do as you wish.”

Deng Wen returned, “We’re leaving.” After saying that, he led the Tyrant Blade Sect team to leave. Naturally, Zhao Hai followed behind.

When Deng Wen left, Long Xiang looked at the others and said, “If anyone else wants to follow the Tyrant Blade Sect, I won’t block you.” 

“We’re leaving as well.” A voice was heard after Long Xiang’s announcement. People followed the voice and found that it was the elder from the True Dao Sect. To be honest, when they saw the True Dao Sect Elder, everyone was shocked, this included Deng Wen.

The Tyrant Blade Sect and the True Dao Sect were allies, but the two sects were still two different entities. Nobody would offend the Long Clan just for the Tyrant Blade Sect. But this time, the True Dao Sect stood up and supported the Tyrant Blade Sect without hesitation. This went beyond everyone’s expectations.

Long Xiang frowned and said, “Everyone who leaves will not obtain any rewards.”

The True Dao Sect Elder just smiled and cupped his fist towards Long Xiang. Then he led his team to the side of the Tyrant Blade Sect. Then the two sects left side by side.

Long Xiang looked at the people who remained and said, “Nobody else wants to leave? If you want to leave, you still have time.” Nobody moved. Everyone just stood in place and looked at Long Xiang.

Long Xiang nodded and said, “Good. Then follow me.” After he said that, he turned his head and walked in the opposite direction to Deng Wen and the others.

When Deng Wen and the others walked around 3 kilometers away, they stopped at a hidden location. Deng Wen turned to Zhao Hai and said, “Little Hai, what do you mean by the signals just now?”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “The Sword Hegemon Sect is intentionally causing trouble. They hope that we get into conflict with the Long Clan. I noticed that Elder Long wasn’t paying attention to them, so I reminded him. It didn’t take long before Elder Long noticed that he was being used as a weapon by the Sword Hegemon Sect.”

The True Dao Sect Elder stared, he looked at Deng Wen in confusion as he asked, “Old Den, what are you saying?”

Deng Wen looked at the True Dao Sect Elder and said, “Old Zhuang, I have to thank you for the support. We’re just doing a performance with Elder Long. Little Hai discovered that Lei Jian was plotting against us. Therefore, he secretly informed Elder Long, causing us to act out a scene. Rest assured, the Long Clan wouldn’t retaliate against us. On the other hand, I reckon Lei Jian and the others will suffer misfortune.”

Zhuang Cong looked at Deng Wen and said, “But I didn’t sense any communication between you. Did you plan this beforehand?”

Deng Wen shook his head and said, “Of course not. How could we plan this? Without Elder Long, I wouldn’t have known about it until it was too late. Little Hai, tell me what’s going on.”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “I gave Elder Long a small signal and Elder Long got it immediately. Although my status in the Tyrant Blade Sect isn’t low, I also have a position in the Long Clan. However, Elder Lei Jian still has a higher status than me. He also represents the Sword Hegemon Sect. For the Tyrant Blade Sect, Elder Long only meant to capture me.”

Zhuang Cong nodded. Zhao Hai continued, “I discovered that Elder Lei Jian’s words weren’t quite right. I suspected that he wants to cause a rift between the Tyrant Blade Sect and the Long Clan. Therefore, I secretly reminded Elder Long about it. The exchange between Elder Deng and Elder Long was real, but everything after that is a play.”

Zhuang Cong smiled bitterly and said, “I never thought you would have this much plotting hidden so deep. You even deceived me. Good job.”

Deng Wen laughed and said, “I’m also helpless. But I reckon Old Long is more annoyed than me. That Lei Jian actually used the old man as a tool. Old Long isn’t someone who would suffer a loss and do nothing. Lei Jian and the others are just waiting for Old Long’s revenge.”

Zhuang Cong smiled and said, “Lei Jian and the others deserve it. Old Long isn’t a good person. He won’t let them off. Right, Old Den, now that we know what’s going on, what do we do next?”

Deng Wen turned to Zhao Hai and said, “Little Hai, who do you think we do now?”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Let’s hide for a few days. Whether it’s the Ghost Cultivators or someone from the True Spirit Realm, I believe my suspicions. The Ghost Cultivators are preparing to deal with us. If that’s the case, Elder Long and the others will be in danger. Although I don’t care about the Sword Hegemon Sect, we can’t just let the Ghost Cultivators do what they want.”

“We’ll hide first to build a large transmission formation. Then let’s wait for an opportunity to rescue Elder Long and the others. Once the Ghost Cultivators find traces of Elder Long and the others, they will certainly use all they have to hold them down. When the time comes, Elder Long and the others won’t be able to use their portable transmission formations. The transmission formation we built will be useful then.”

Zhuang Cong nodded, “Good. Kid, no wonder Feng Lingyun favors you so much.”

Hearing Zhuang Cong, Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Senior Brother Feng only met for a few times, I don’t deserve Senior Brother’s praise.”

Zhuang Cong wanted his hand and said, “It doesn’t matter if you only met a few times. Young Feng is optimistic about you. I could see that you’re a talent. No wonder Old Deng is willing to offend the Long Clan for you.”

Deng Wen laughed and said, “Alright, Old Zhuang, let’s not waste time talking. Let’s find a place first and set up the transmission formation. Little Hai, we don’t have the scouting abilities you have. You have to lead the way.”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “We don’t need a map. We’re going to a place we’ve been to before. Let’s go to the Flying Ghost City branch of the Ghost Shadow Sect.”

Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Deng Wen and the others stared. Then their complexion changed. Deng Wen looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Little Hai, are you joking? The Flying Ghost City branch? That’s the center of the storm. What can we accomplish if we go there?”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Elder, rest assured, nothing will happen. I have looked at the Flying Ghost City. There are only a few Ghost Cultivators stationed there, the majority of the people are underground world humanoids. When we slaughtered the Flying Ghost City Branch, the underground world humanoids scattered and fled. It’s impossible for them to return to the city so soon. Now, the city is in complete ruins. Nobody will notice us.”

“We can set up the transmission formation there. Once Elder Long and the others suffer a loss and retreat, we’ll lead them to Flying Ghost City and leave. Even if we suffer losses, our losses wouldn’t be big.”

When Deng Wen heard Zhao Hai, he couldn’t help but nod. He also felt that Zhao Hai’s words were reasonable. Most importantly, Zhao Hai’s words up until now had been accurate. They also succeeded in any attacks that Zhao Hai pointed out. It didn’t take long before Zhao Hai earned Deng Wen and everyone’s trust.

Zhuang Cong didn’t oppose the decision. He was also convinced by Zhao Hai. He looked at Deng Wen and said, “Old Deng, what do you think?”

Deng Wen smiled and said, “Let’s do what Little Hai said. But this place isn’t close to Flying Ghost City. It would take us three days to arrive. We don’t know what will happen to Old Long and the others in those three days. If something happens, the Long Clan will have no idea what happened. Then they would put this matter on our heads.”

Zhao Hai replied, “Elder Deng doesn’t need to worry. When the time comes, Elder Long will obtain the information. As long as we build the transmission formation, everything will be fine.”

Deng Wen nodded, “Alright, now let’s depart.” Zhuang Cong agreed. Then the group flew towards Flying Ghost City. Zhao Hai continued to scout the way ahead, but the five people from the Long Clan weren’t with him since they followed Long Xiang. 

Fortunately, the group was small, making it easier for them to travel. This allowed them to travel with no danger. Moreover, every night, Zhao Hai found a good place for them to rest. 

While flying towards Flying Ghost City, Zhao Hai and the others encountered several groups of Ghost Cultivators. However, they were all discovered by Zhao Hai in advance and were avoided. Zhao Hai and the others also noticed that the underground world was more chaotic than before. More villages have been destroyed. The Ghost Cultivators were killing the underground world humanoids to replenish their energy. Zhao Hai has no way to remedy this situation right now. But he already thought of something. He believes that before long, the underground humanoids would escape this fate.

Naturally, the timeline that Zhao Hai was thinking about was in tens of years or hundreds of years. After all, he still has a long way to go before becoming strong.

It was impossible for Zhao Hai to get rid of the Ghost Cultivators within ten to a hundred years. He wasn’t planning on eliminating the Ghost Cultivators, his plan was to make the underground world humanoids stronger. Only once they become stronger can they escape their destiny.

It wasn’t difficult for the underground humanoids to be stronger. With the Space, Zhao Hai found the most suitable method to strengthen the underground humanoids.
