simply a classic case of someone walking right into a trap."No, just have your agent tell them yes.""This...Master, please don't be angry. I really didn't know they were targeting you. I refused them...The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment. What operation was this Before he could even make a move, the other party took the initiative to offer something precious. Could it be that they were scared by him

But thinking about it, it's understandable. A delicate and frail little white face wouldn't dare to be bold.

Thinking of this, he stretched out his hand: "Of course! Just hand over whatever treasures you have to me!"

"Alright, I'll give it to you right now!"

Ye Bufan said, as he picked up the small bell in his hand and shook it gently. A crisp sound rang out immediately.

The sound didn't seem much different from an ordinary bell, but the four people before him instantly went stiff. The light in their eyes vanished, and they each became like walking corpses.

Soul-stealing Demon Bell, though severely weakened by the Heavenly Thunder's assault previously, is more than enough to deal with these few before us.

It can control people's minds, which is not much different from the effect of soul-capturing.

But the effect was a hundred times worse. When casting it, you didn't need to look into people's eyes, and it could control multiple people at once.

The middle-aged man and his four bodyguards were completely unprepared. Even if they gave it their all, they wouldn't be able to stand against the Soul-Devouring Bell driven by Ye Bufan, as the difference in cultivation levels was simply too vast.

They were under his control. Ye Bufan asked, “Tell me, what’s going on Who sent you here”

"It's the young master..."

The middle-aged man stared blankly and answered every question, simply explaining things.

Ye Bufan asked, "What did he ask you to do"

"Let's find a reason to arrest all the men over there."

Ye Bufan suddenly felt a sense of boredom. Such an opponent was too weak, and he didn't bother to ask more.

"Since that's the case, you all go back. Strip him naked and hang him from a tree."

"Yes!"

Four people agreed with a nod and turned to leave, hurrying in the direction they had come from.

At this moment, Li Shuo was behind a small hill, pacing back and forth with his hands clasped behind his back, his mind brimming with excitement.

This time, no matter what, I have to get Ouyang Jing. I'm going back to annex Bufan Investment's assets in Ebei.

By then, he will become the first person in the family, and the next head of the family will undoubtedly be him.

And those women around Ye Bufan, each one is a top-notch beauty. Not a single one can be let go.

Thinking of Hu YaoYao, Lu XueMan and the others' beauty, his heart felt itchy, constantly swallowing saliva.

And just then, a figure flashed and the four bodyguards he had sent out all returned.

"So soon How did it go What about the people What about the people I had you arrest"

Li Shu looked at the four people who returned empty-handed, his heart full of questions. But before he could finish his question, the middle-aged man reached out and grabbed his neck, lifting him up.

“Uh…uh…are you crazy What are you doing Let me go, I’m your master…”

He gasped for air, confused as to how his bodyguard could go out for just a while and then turn against him.

But no matter how he called out, the middle-aged man before him remained indifferent.

And just then, the remaining three people beside him also jumped in, and with a few swift moves they tore off all his clothes, leaving not even his trousers.

"Ah..."

Li Shu shouted frantically, his eyes filled with panic.

He couldn't understand what was wrong with his bodyguard, how he suddenly went crazy and attacked him.

And what the heck is this taking off your clothes about Do you have some kind of ulterior motive toward yourself

At this thought, he shivered with fear and hurriedly clenched his buttocks to protect a vital area.

Luckily, what they were worried about didn't happen. Although the four of them stripped him naked, they didn't do anything else.

Then, he took the rope and tied a secure knot, hanging it on the crooked tree next to him.

He let out a sigh of relief, and then Li Shuo's heart filled with anger as he roared furiously at the four people below.

“You four lunatics, you dared to attack me after taking money from the Li family Quickly let me go, or the Li family will not let you off!”

Normally, these four people might be considered powerful as Earth-ranked martial artists. However, the Li family is the first family in Eubei, and they are simply too influential to be provoked.

Now these people are all under the control of the Soul-Seizing Devil Bell, no different from zombies. They have no thoughts or consciousness of their own and only obey Ye Bufan's commands.

Don't say that the other person is just the young master of the Li family, even if it were the Jade Emperor, he wouldn't care.

For this very reason, after shouting for a long time, Li Shuo's voice became hoarse. However, the four people remained indifferent.

He was completely dumbfounded. He wanted to seek help from others, but this was Shennongjia, surrounded by barren mountains and old forests. There were only snakes, insects, and beasts lurking around. Where could he find other people

At this moment, he was hanging from a tree, his arms aching terribly, his wrists swollen and raw from the rope.

This is just the beginning, he's hanging there completely naked, a feast for all the insects around.

In the blink of an eye, his body was covered with insects of all sizes, continuously sucking his blood.

Li Shu was on the verge of insanity; at this moment, he felt that life was worse than death.

"Damn you four, wait for me. My Li family will not let you go..."

No matter how he screamed, the four bodyguards stood there straight and motionless, without any reaction.

Ye Bufan's side, the arrival of the four people was just a small episode, with no effect on everyone's mood, even adding a bit of humor.

He turned his head to glance at Ouyang Jing beside him: "Little Jing, what's that kid's background"

The Li family is the first family in Cheng, Ebei province, and he is the eldest son of the Li family. Our company has a lot of business dealings with them.

After I became the head of the branch, he started pursuing me. I don't like him and also know that this kind of person has ulterior motives.

"But the Li family is very influential, and they have a lot of business dealings with the company. I wouldn't want to make things too difficult with them."

Ye Bufan shook his head slightly: "Xiao Jing, you haven't prioritized things. The company is the company, and it doesn't compare to you at all."

"In the future, if this kind of thing happens again, don't give them any face. Just have someone throw them out."

Jiang Fangzhou came over from the side and smiled, "Brother Ye, do you want me to take care of that guy directly It'll save trouble for Miss Xiao Jing later."

When he spoke, his eyes would dart occasionally to Ouyang Jing, filled with flattery.

Ye Bufan shook his head: "Forget it, after all, the other party is not a heinous criminal."

As a cultivator, one must not harbor too much killing intent, otherwise, it is easy to give rise to heart demons and attract even more ferocious celestial tribulation when ascending.

Ye Bufan didn't kill Li Shuo for another reason.

Now, the Shennongjia Sky Pit has been completely sealed off, and the task is undertaken by Xuanyuan Pavilion, a subordinate of the Heavenly Palace.

Just now Li Shuo said that he could get in thanks to the Li family's connections, which means there's a mole in the Xuanyuan Pavilion.

No matter what, he is still the Fourth Elder of Xuanyuan Pavilion, and also holds the token of the Heavenly Palace Palace Master.

We'll see the specific situation at that time, and if necessary, we'll root out this bug and fix it.

Now the time for ascension is drawing near, it's also a help to my old father.

That's why he only punished Li Shuo and didn't kill him. He wanted to wait and see if what he said was true.Bufan's eyes flashed a trace of ferocity. If the guy's questioning of the appraisal results was previously within a reasonable range, now it was clearly targeting him.If that's the case, then they sho...
