Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 554 Ambush (Part Two)

"Boss Ye!"

"Boss!"

There were also two people hiding here, both dressed in clothes that were very similar in color to the surrounding environment, holding crossbows in their hands and specially made chain guns strapped to their waists.

"It's nothing, I just came to take a look." Ye Tianjun didn't find anything unusual, nodded, and quickly left, heading towards the next ambush point.

The cave actually contains the missing goods.

Not long ago, under the leadership of their leader Qiu Xiaoxiao, the Green Robe Alliance went to great lengths to finally find the saltpeter in a cave in the dense forest near the official road of Huayang City.

They found it, but didn't move it. Naturally, they were waiting in ambush.

He refused to believe that the person behind the scenes would simply kill Luo Meiwei, secretly transport these things out, and hide them in a cave without doing anything about it.

Once we catch one of them, we can follow the clues and find out who secretly attacked the Green Robe Alliance.

Therefore, Ye Tianjun arranged several small teams to lie in ambush day and night around the cave, waiting for suspicious persons to appear.

However, so many days have passed.

Aside from catching some farmers who went into the forest to pick medicinal herbs and a few hunters, nothing else was found.

This also caused many of Ye Tianjun's subordinates to complain and whine incessantly.

Ye Tianjun was naturally aware of everyone's ulterior motives, but he not only ignored them, he intensified his efforts.

He had a gut feeling.

The person behind it all will surely return. If only we have patience.

After half an incense stick's time, Ye Tianjun finally finished checking all the ambush points one by one.

Although people harbored resentment, fortunately, he still maintained his prestige and remained diligent and conscientious, without resorting to any dishonest or cunning behavior.

Seeing that everything was normal, Ye Tianjun was just about to go back.

Suddenly, he stopped and frowned as he looked in one direction.

He remembered that he had clearly set up a hidden trap in the bark of the trees here.

Now it seems the mechanism has been dismantled.

Ye Tianjun cautiously approached and saw a thin iron wire beneath the yellowish-brown bark, broken in the middle, the other half of which was nowhere to be found.

“This…” Ye Tianjun narrowed his eyes.

Bang! ! !

With a flick of his arm, a beam of black light appeared, blasting apart the thick layer of withered leaves surrounding him.

"Come out, I see you."

The surroundings were silent, except for the withered leaves being blown away by the wind and slowly falling.

Ye Tianjun said in a deep voice, "Stop hiding. Do you think I can't see you just because you're squatting there?"

Still silent.

“Fine…” he sneered.

Snapped!

The chain gun swung violently, creating a loud whooshing sound in the air.

boom! ! !

The spearhead, like a shooting star, pierced straight towards a large tree in front of him.

Half of the tree trunk was blown apart.

"It's you..." Ye Tianjun sheathed his chain gun and narrowed his eyes. "Han Yi from Jingtian Manor, what are you doing here? And sneaking around like this?"

Han Yi flashed out from under the half-tree, his face grim.

He never expected that just because he was passing by, he would accidentally trigger a mechanism.

More importantly, Ye Tianjun's perceptiveness exceeded his expectations.

However, now that he had been discovered, he no longer hid and said frankly, "What, is this your home? I was just passing by and wanted to hunt a couple of wild game to improve my diet, is that not allowed?"

"It's possible..." Ye Tianjun said with a half-smile, "but you came in and ruined my trap... There's no one here, if I kill you, nobody will know!"

"Who knew you set that up?" Han Yi retorted. "Shenqianglou, Ye Tianjun, right? You just wait. The matter of you injuring me last time is not over yet. I'm going to go find my senior brothers and sisters to avenge me."

As he spoke, he slowly backed away.

"Revenge?" Ye Tianjun laughed. "With your two or three tricks, your senior brothers and sisters are probably all useless."

"Fine, fine, fine." Han Yi laughed instead of getting angry. "Ye Tianjun, you insulted my sect. You wait, I'm going back to get reinforcements right now."

After saying that, he turned and ran.

"Want to go?"

Ye Tianjun's tone hardened: "I said last time, every time I see you, I'll beat you up. I, Ye Tianjun, mean what I say!"

The chain gun in his hand produced a series of sharp whistles.

boom! ! !

In the blink of an eye, the black light turned into a phantom, instantly traversing a distance of more than ten meters, and slammed heavily onto Han Yi's shoulder like a giant crocodile sweeping its tail.

*Thud!* Han Yi groaned, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, clutching his shoulder as he was sent flying.

The moment he landed, he sprang to his feet and ran towards the edge of the forest without looking back.

"That's it? And he claims to be one of the thirty martial arts masters of Jingtian Manor? Trash!" Ye Tianjun spat disdainfully and didn't chase after him.

He had investigated Han Yi before; his strength and such were utterly worthless, not the person he was looking for.

Although this encounter was accidental, he couldn't bring himself to kill him.

The main point is that there is a difference in strength between martial artists of the same level, and it is perfectly normal for them to injure or drive away their opponents.

But if the other side is determined to escape, then things will get complicated.

Although this place is in the woods, it is still not far from the official road.

If he fails to deal with Han Yi in a short time, he will most likely be caught in the crossfire of Jing Tian Manor's reinforcements. At that point, he won't be able to escape.

Considering this reason, Ye Tianjun thought about it for a moment and ultimately decided not to chase after them.

"You're lucky. I've been busy these past few days. I'll figure out how to deal with you after I'm done."

Ye Tianjun turned around and sped towards the cave.

However, he hadn't walked more than a few steps.

Suddenly, something came to mind.

If Han Yi really wanted to hunt some wild game, why didn't he go to the nearby forest where there were more animals?

This forest has been visited by people from his Divine Gun Tower many times recently, and even if there are animals, they have long been scared away.

Moreover, judging from the direction Han Yi was heading, he was clearly heading straight for the central cave!

Upon realizing this, he suddenly understood.

He was fooled! He was fooled by Han Yi's initial impression of him as harmless and weak!

Even if Han Yi wasn't the mastermind behind this, he must be involved!

ah…...

In the distance, faint screams and wails could be heard.

"Oh no!" Ye Tianjun shouted.

With a sudden burst of speed, he arrived at the first ambush location.

His two men each had a dented, bloody hole on their foreheads, from which blood gushed out, and their tongues were wide open, twitching inexplicably.

"Han Yi!!!"

Ye Tianjun's eyes shattered, and he stomped heavily on his foot, rushing towards the second ambush point.

However, he arrived too late. The two men were in even worse shape; a large chunk of flesh had been removed from their chests, exposing their heart vessels completely, with no sign of beating.

Ye Tianjun's eyes instantly turned red, his face filled with anger, his blood rushing to his head, and his expression became uncontrollably ferocious and terrifying.
