Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

In the brief moment when Jia Yan went to pursue Lai Shuangquan, Chen Tian had already told Wang Yue the whole story.

Therefore, upon hearing Chen Tian's question, Wang Yue's amiable expression instantly turned cold. He walked towards Lai Shuangquan step by step and said sternly, "Brother Lai, I have seen your past misdeeds, but considering that you saved my son, I have always pretended not to know. But today, you actually provoked my junior brother, so I can no longer tolerate you. Come, tie this guy up, drag him to the town's execution ground, and have him slowly sliced to death in front of everyone in the town!"

As soon as Wang Yue finished speaking, four Wang family servants walked out from the sides, dragging Lai Shuangquan, who was already terrified, towards the execution ground.

Dingxiang Town was a remote town, nearly a thousand miles away from the nearest county seat. With the heavens high and the emperor far away, the county seat couldn't control Dingxiang Town, and almost all the affairs of the town were handled by the respected Wang Yue.

However, Wang Yue was kind-hearted and emphasized virtue in everything, rarely imposing extreme punishments on townspeople who committed offenses.

But today's Wang Yue was very different. After hearing about Lai Shuangquan's attempt to rob and kill Chen Tian, the always amiable Wang Yue instantly flew into a rage, actually using the most severe punishment of slow slicing on Lai Shuangquan!

The Wang family's servants were also seeing their master so angry for the first time, and they were all shocked. At the same time, they secretly sized up Chen Tian, their faces full of confusion.

You should know that even when Wang Yue's son was abducted by a group of bandits, Wang Yue was not so angry. But now that this person was involved, why was Wang Yue so furious?

They really couldn't understand what kind of relationship Wang Yue had with this young man.

"Junior Brother Chen, I am sorry that you were frightened in my territory. It is my fault, and I apologize to you!"

Wang Yue ignored the thoughts of these servants. At this moment, he bowed to Chen Tian with a face full of guilt.

"Hey, Senior Brother Wang, do we still need to be so formal between us? Please get up!" Chen Tian stepped forward and helped Wang Yue, who was about to bend down.

At this moment, Wang Yue seemed extremely excited, tightly holding Chen Tian's arms, and said excitedly, "Junior Brother, how did you suddenly come here?"

"I…"

Chen Tian was about to speak, but suddenly he seemed to have thought of something. He looked around at the Wang family's servants, and then stopped talking.

When Wang Yue saw Chen Tian's appearance, he immediately knew what he was worried about, so he released Chen Tian, put his hands behind his back, and said majestically, "Today I have a distinguished guest visiting, and we will have a detailed chat in the study later. During this period, no one is allowed to disturb us without my orders. Do you all hear me?"

Although Wang Yue usually spoke kindly, at this time, when he became serious, a strong aura burst out instantly, causing these servants to tremble and hurriedly bow and say 'Yes'.

Wang Yue nodded in satisfaction when he saw this, and then affectionately took Chen Tian's hand and walked towards the mansion.

"Master Wang, Master Wang, something terrible has happened!"

But just as Wang Yue stepped into the threshold, a cry of surprise suddenly sounded from behind.

Wang Yue frowned and turned around, scolding unhappily, "Why are you shouting and screaming? Where are your manners!"

At this time, a farmer in cloth clothes ran all the way to Wang Yue. Ignoring his reprimand, he gasped and said, "Master Wang, something terrible has happened. I was sleeping soundly just now, but suddenly I heard bursts of wild beasts roaring from next door. After hearing this, I was startled and immediately got up to check, but after this look, I… I…"

"What is it? Speak quickly!" Wang Yue seemed unable to bear his slow and hesitant appearance and urged.

The man swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said in a trembling voice as if he was very frightened, "I saw more than a dozen tigers and leopards breaking into the home of Old Man Zhang next door, and they bit him to death!"

"What? Such a thing happened!" Wang Yue was also taken aback, after all, it had been decades since the last time a wild animal had injured someone in Dingxiang Town.

Wang Yue pondered for a while, then asked, "Then what happened later? Did those beasts continue to hurt people?"

At this time, Chen Tian was standing expressionlessly, with a faint, intriguing smile on his lips.

After Wang Yue saw Chen Tian's appearance, he seemed to understand something, and then said to the farmer, "A person's life and death are all due to karma. There is no one else in Old Man Zhang's family. How about this, you go to my mansion to receive ten taels of silver and help him bury him!"

After saying that, Wang Yue turned to a servant beside him and said, "Xu Bo, take him there!"

"Thank you, Master Wang, thank you, Master Wang, you are such a good person!"

Hearing Wang Yue's words, the farmer who came to report the news instantly became excited. It would cost at most six taels of silver to hold a funeral, and wouldn't the remaining four taels fall into his pocket?

Thinking like this, the farmer excitedly bowed to Wang Yue, and then went to the accounting room with a servant of the Wang family.

"Junior Brother Chen, let's go too!"

Seeing the farmer leave, Wang Yue stretched out his hand and smiled at Chen Tian, but his tone seemed a little respectful.

Chen Tian didn't say anything after hearing this. After nodding lightly, he walked forward first.

… … … … … …

The Wang family was very large, with four courtyards in and four courtyards out, a total of three courtyards to pass through, and Wang Yue's study was located in the last garden.

It was called a study, but it was actually a three-story small pavilion. The pavilion was beautifully decorated, surrounded by verdant bamboos and blooming flowers, which was very elegant.

This study was a forbidden area of the Wang family. Usually only Wang Yue could come, and even Wang Yue's several sons could not enter without Wang Yue's permission.

After the two entered the study, Wang Yue immediately closed the gate of the pavilion. Only then did he have time to breathe a sigh of relief, and then smiled at Chen Tian, "Okay, there are no outsiders here, you can talk about it, right? Why did you suddenly come to my place?"
