Chapter 401 The Luring Kill

Li Yuankun: "You are so smart, you must have a way."

Ye Tian rolled his eyes. He thought for a moment and said, "There is one way, let me try it."

Li Yuankun: "Tell me about it."

Ye Tian then explained his plan. Everyone listened and agreed it was feasible. They decided that Ye Tian would lure the person away, while the others would go to the Ye family cemetery to wait.

Ye Tian was not in a hurry. He found a breakfast stall, ate some steamed buns, and drank a bowl of bone and egg soup, then drove to the Zhang family.

The Zhang family was famous locally and not hard to find. After more than an hour, the car arrived at the main gate of the Zhang family. A large manor was built against the mountain. The houses within the courtyard numbered at least eighty, if not a hundred, and were very imposing.

After getting out of the car, he stood at the entrance, silent, but his divine sense explored the Zhang family courtyard. A moment later, a powerful divine sense appeared, followed by a voice: "It is always a pleasure to have friends from afar."

Half a minute later, the gate opened, and a tall, burly middle-aged man walked out. His hair was gray, and he smiled, cupping his fist towards Ye Tian. "My friend, you have come. May I ask what brings you here?"

Ye Tian sneered, "Your Zhang family has gone too far, destroying my Ye family's ancestral graves!"

The middle-aged man was slightly taken aback. "Your Excellency, you must be that Ye Wu Wang. What you speak of is not the work of my Zhang family."

Ye Tian chuckled, "Is that so? But the coffin clearly had the character 'Zhang' written on it!"

Zhang Lingbao's expression darkened. "This must be a frame-up. Brother Ye, you must not believe it."

Ye Tian's face was grim. "My Ye family's tomb is a geomantically auspicious spot. Your Zhang family disrupted it openly last time, and now you've done it secretly. Do you think I don't know?"

Zhang Lingbao sighed softly, "Brother Ye, I believe there must be a misunderstanding."

Ye Tian: "If you say there's a misunderstanding, then come with me to see the site."

Zhang Lingbao did not want to conflict with Ye Tian. He pondered for a moment and said, "Very well, I will accompany Brother Ye."

Zhang Lingbao himself was a powerful cultivator and would not fear Ye Tian in a fight. He directly got into Ye Tian's car, and they drove to the cemetery together.

They both sat in the back seat. Ye Tian's face was grim, and he remained silent.

Zhang Lingbao, however, was relaxed and smiled, "Brother Ye, my Zhang family was in the wrong last time. I hope you are not angry."

Ye Tian: "My tomb is a rare and excellent spot, yet someone has tampered with it, reversing Yin and Yang, intending to harm my Ye family! Zhang Wu Wang, in Hai City, the only one with this capability is likely your Zhang family!"

Zhang Lingbao frowned slightly and explained, "Brother Ye, if I, Zhang Lingbao, had done this, I would not deny it. We Wu Wangs are accountable for our actions."

Ye Tian frowned. "If it wasn't you, then who could it be?"

Zhang Lingbao smiled. "Since I am here, I will find the person who framed my Zhang family."

The car arrived at the cemetery. Upon seeing the scale of the burial site, Zhang Lingbao laughed. "Brother Ye, you have quite the flair. I had thought this place was extraordinary long ago, but unfortunately, I was too late. When I wanted to buy it, it no longer belonged to others."

Arriving at the grave pit, Ye Tian glanced at Zhang Jiliang, who immediately understood and drove away from the spot.

Zhang Lingbao sensed something amiss and said calmly, "Brother Ye, why did you have the driver leave?"

Ye Tian asked, "Zhang Lingbao, can one truly ascend to human immortal status by consuming corpse insects?"

Zhang Lingbao's face changed drastically. He suddenly roared and struck at Ye Tian with a palm strike in mid-air, his speed astonishingly fast.

Ye Tian moved ten meters to the side, evading the blow. At that moment, a terrifying aura descended, causing Ye Tian to fall to his knees. Zhang Lingbao also became stiff and unable to move.

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out. From three hundred meters away, five sniper rifles fired simultaneously. Zhang Lingbao's heart was pierced, his head exploded, and his legs were shattered by heavy rounds. He crashed to the ground like a broken statue.

A few minutes later, the terrifying aura disappeared. Ye Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief and slowly got up.

Xu Longxiao and Li Yuankun rushed down from the mountain. Seeing the body on the ground, Xu Longxiao let out a breath and said, "He probably hadn't consumed the corpse insects yet."

Li Yuankun walked over to examine the body. "Indeed, he hadn't. He is definitely not a human immortal."

Ye Tian asked, "How many Wu Wangs are there in the Zhang family?"

As soon as this question was asked, the surrounding people's faces turned pale, a bad premonition seizing them.

Suddenly, a scream came from Xu Longxiao's earpiece. His face changed drastically. "This is bad, someone is attacking the snipers!"
