I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 743: Chapter 437 Heavenly Communication Device_1

Jian Country originally had seven great Immortal Cultivation families, but the Yuan family of Black Cloud Mountain had already been expelled because of the murder of Chen Mobai.

However, when Yuan Hongyuan carried out this act, he naturally considered the possibility of failure. Therefore, the core members of the Yuan family had already escaped beyond the influence of the Divine Wood Sect, leaving behind mostly cannon fodder.

These cannon fodders, who were previously sent to mine by the Divine Wood Sect, have now been sent to the front line.

In addition to these great Immortal Cultivation families with Foundation Establishment Cultivators in charge, Jian Country also has several second and third-rate small families.

The Divine Wood Sect plans to annihilate Mountain Shaker Peak this time, so it has gradually mobilized the power of the entire sect within its sphere of influence.

While they were polite towards the great Immortal Cultivation families, they didn’t spare the small families and minor sects, drafting directly a tenth of their forces.

The lower one’s position, the less choice one had.

The second batch of cultivators from the Divine Wood Sect plans to send a thousand people to reinforce their troops. The sect conscripted five hundred disciples, and the remaining five hundred needed to be drafted externally.

This part of the manpower consisted of Loose Cultivators, small families, and minor sects.

Among them, the recruitment of Loose Cultivators had already reached its target. Small families and minor sects obediently sent their best disciples, hoping they could make contributions in this war between the two sects, exchange for resources from the Divine Wood Sect, or even Foundation Building Pills.

The only remaining six major families, due to their close relationship with the sect and the ability to obtain Foundation Building Pills from the trading association, were reluctant to participate in this event.

Each only sent ten people symbolically to show their compliance with the orders of the Divine Wood Sect.

Upon receiving the order from the sect leader, Chen Mobai didn’t say a word. He took Luo Yixuan and went to each major market to speak with the heads of the families.

Among them, the Guo family, which relied on the Five Elements Sect, had already relocated some of their cultivators. But after Chen Mobai’s visit, they gritted their teeth and sent another ten people.

One of them was a Qi Cultivation ninth level elder from the Guo family who didn’t have much time left. He personally led the team, giving sufficient face to Chen Mobai and the Divine Wood Sect.

Chen Mobai was very appreciative of this.

The rest, Jade Pot Fu family, Heavenly Pillar Wang family, Azure Crane Liang family, Snow Peak Bai family, and Mirage Wave Luo family seemed to have prepared in advance. After Chen Mobai’s visit, they all agreed to send five more people.

“The sect’s intention is for your six families to have a hundred people in total. The second elder of the Guo family personally leads a team of twenty cultivators. If each of your five families sends fifteen, we’ll still be short by five. How about one of you send one more person?”

Chen Mobai gathered the heads of the six major families in Jian Country and calmly put forward his request.

Even though Chu Zuoshu didn’t make a mandatory request, and even if a few people were missing, he wouldn’t say anything, but Chen Mobai still wanted to do his best.

“Five Qi Practitioners can’t decide the victory on the battlefield.”

The head of the Luo family, Luo Jushan, spoke diplomatically, implying that Chen Mobai should turn a blind eye and be satisfied with what he had.

“Exactly, with the renowned Chen Town Guard leading the team this time, our opponents will surely retreat in fear. The people we sent are merely there to support. Whether there’s one more or one less makes no difference.”

Wang Gongdao from the Wang family also spoke. The others, like Fu Xiuzuo, also sided with him. They were polite to Chen Mobai, but they were reluctant to send another person.

“In that case, in half a month, have the people from your families gather at Giant Tree Ridge, and each family’s representative can coordinate with Xuan.”

After listening, Chen Mobai didn’t say much. He nodded calmly, then left with Luo Yixuan.

“Master, they really don’t know their manners. They are not even willing to send one more person…”

On the way back, Luo Yixuan seemed a bit resentful. However, Chen Mobai just smiled and shook his head.

“Xuan, they’re not unwilling. You see, as soon as I showed up, they immediately sent another five cultivators. As they said, the number of low-ranked Qi Practitioners can’t determine the victory on the battlefield. But they did this to show that they have a say in the matter, so they fought for one more cultivator as a bargaining chip.”

The Divine Wood Sect dominates four countries, and although the six major families in Jian Country also have Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they definitely don’t dare to resist, so after the edict was issued, they all obediently sent their clan cultivators.

But they also wanted to show they were different from the minor families and minor sects, so they purposely fell short by one.

This is both to show the other Immortal Cultivation forces in Jian Country their influence and to show their family that even when facing the Divine Wood Sect, they have the ability to negotiate, cultivating a sense of pride among the clan cultivators.

Luo Yixuan finally understood the subtleties after Chen Mobai’s explanation.

“But they still didn’t give you face, Master.”

But even after understanding, Luo Yixuan was still a bit indignant.

“Wen Bo’s South Mountain Shop is able to spread throughout Jian Country, and they have helped a lot, so I can’t say much. Moreover, they at least left me some face in responding to the sect leader and sent more manpower.”

Since he was a child, Chen Mobai heard from his grandfather that the world is not so clear-cut as some places and some things need to be left with some room for manoeuvre.

“Master, I understand now.”

Luo Yixuan was a very clever person. Once Chen Mobai explained, she understood immediately.
