Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven
#257 - Chapter 257 Plan
Watching Chen Tian approach step by step, the ragged man appeared even more flustered, changing from kneeling on the ground to sitting, and retreating backward in fear.
Chen Tian didn't know why he was so afraid of him, but Chen Tian knew that this guy was definitely not a good person.
Moreover, in the conversation with the ghost fire just now, he mentioned Chen Tian's name many times, presumably wanting to lure Chen Tian over.
In other words, the distress signal this guy sent earlier was fake. His real intention was to lure Chen Tian here.
But what he never expected was that although Chen Tian came, he had been hiding in the canopy of the tree without showing his face, which made him mistakenly believe that Chen Tian had not followed.
And when he saw Chu Li and the other five coming, this person exclaimed, "Why are only you here?"
The other meaning in this sentence was also surprise at not seeing Chen Tian come.
But if this person was really attacked by a monster and called for help, he should have been very happy to see Chu Li and others come to rescue him.
However, the next scene that happened made people feel puzzled again.
He actually killed Chu Li and others who came to save him, and knelt on the ground, summoning a ball of ghost fire.
When Chen Tian saw this scene, he already felt that something was wrong. Presumably, all of this was a trap.
And when Chen Tian heard this man mention his name many times in his conversation with the ghost fire, it made Chen Tian even more convinced that this trap was to lure him over, but because Chen Tian had not shown up for a long time, Chu Li and others were killed as scapegoats.
In other words, everything this man did was prepared for Chen Tian, but why do this? Chen Tian had no idea.
The man sat on the ground and retreated all the way. His already tattered clothes became even more dirty and unbearable after being stained with the mud on the ground.
But at this time, he had no time to pay attention to these things, and was instinctively fleeing backward under Chen Tian's constant pressure.
However, at this moment, his back pressed against the trunk of a large tree, which left him with no way to retreat. He could only widen his eyes and watch Chen Tian walk over in horror.
Chen Tian had already sorted out all the information he knew in his mind, so after walking to the man, he waved his long sword and pressed it against the man's chin, coldly saying, "If you don't want to die, then honestly answer me, what do you want to do by carefully designing this trap to lure me here?"
As he spoke, a cold murderous aura, as if substantive, flashed in Chen Tian's eyes, causing the man to tremble again.
"Captain Ye, spare me! Captain Ye, spare me! For the sake of us both belonging to the Demon Removal Squad, please let me go this time!" Facing Chen Tian's questioning, the man knelt on the ground again and kowtowed.
It's just that just now he was worshiping the ghost fire, but now he has changed to Chen Tian.
But after hearing this sentence, Chen Tian's heart moved, and he said in a cold voice: "You are also from the Demon Removal Squad? Which team?"
The man did not dare to neglect and hurriedly said respectfully: "Answering Captain Ye, I am a member of the Third Squad. We both belong to the Shi Xiang Pavilion and are our own people, so please have mercy and let me go."
It would have been fine if he hadn't said it, but as soon as he said this, Chen Tian laughed angrily and said disdainfully: "How dare you say you are one of us? Who in the world would kill their own companions? I think you are just an evil demon!"
Looking at the confused expressions on the faces of Chu Li and others who were not far away, Chen Tian's heart was filled with滔天anger.
After being reprimanded by Chen Tian, a look of sorrow appeared on the man's face, and he became even more anxious.
After retracting his gaze, Chen Tian condensed his right hand, and suddenly a sword energy was stimulated from the Red Luan long sword, shooting through the man's left shoulder.
The unimaginable pain subverted his sanity, causing him to roll on the ground in pain.
But Chen Tian's expression was still calm as usual, and his tone was as cold as eternal ice, coldly saying: "I will give you one last chance. You better give me an honest answer, otherwise, what I will shoot through next time will not just be a shoulder."
At this time, Chen Tian looked like an evil god from hell, and every move was full of murderous intent!
The man finally knew that it was useless to play tricks in front of Chen Tian, so he covered his injured shoulder and said truthfully: "Okay... I'll talk... I'll tell you everything."
This person finally no longer held any侥幸, sighed, and then told Chen Tian all the conspiracies.
It turned out that this person's name was Li Yuanji. After the demon clan mutation occurred in the West Mi Mountains, he responded to the call of the Shi Xiang Pavilion and joined the Third Demon Removal Squad and was sent to the eastern front to fight.
Originally, for the past half month, they had been enjoying the benefits behind the Fourteenth Demon Removal Squad led by Chen Tian, and had also received many benefits.
But just two days ago, they received an order from the Shi Xiang Pavilion, asking their Third Demon Removal Squad to rush to support the Tenth Demon Removal Squad fighting in the south.
Although they were a little reluctant to give up this comfortable life, there was no way, they had to obey the arrangement of the Shi Xiang Pavilion and retreat to the south of the West Mi Mountains.
But just as they were passing through this place, a large group of monsters suddenly sprang out from below.
This made them panic and start fighting hand-to-hand.
But fortunately, the strength of these monsters was not very high, mostly only at the third and fourth levels, so it was relatively easy to deal with.
And just when they thought victory was in sight, a strange ghost fire suddenly appeared.
This ghost fire was very powerful. As soon as it appeared, it swallowed the cultivator in the early stage of Spiritual Guidance who was leading them.
Immediately afterwards, the ghost fire showed great power, floating over a dozen members of the Third Squad in a row, and wherever it went, their bodies burned, and when the flames burned to the fullest, the ghost fire sucked them in, people and fire together.
After witnessing the terrifying strength of this ghost fire, the remaining members of the Third Demon Removal Squad immediately lost their fighting spirit, gave up resistance, and became prisoners of this ghost fire.
Next, this ghost fire imprisoned them here and asked each of them to think about how to remove the Fourteenth Squad.
Li Yuanji knew that the most powerful person in this Fourteenth Squad was Chen Tian, and as long as Chen Tian was deceived, the ghost fire could divert the tiger away from the mountain, attack from the east and strike from the west, and kill the remaining members of the Fourteenth Squad one by one.
This was all of Li Yuanji's plan.
