My wife who comes from a wealthy family
Chapter 827 - 828: Planning

Chapter 827: Chapter 828: Planning

"Of course, with my current cultivation level, it’s difficult to shake a practitioner at the Spirit Transformation Realm. But as long as I have some time to prepare, set traps, and acquire the world’s top-tier poisons... I think killing a Spirit Transformation Realm expert might not be impossible!" Ye Wudao said.

Hiss!

Upon hearing Ye Wudao’s words, several others gasped sharply!

Ye Wudao was simply too audacious!

He actually dared to set his sights on a Spirit Transformation Realm expert!

"Leave the poisons to me. I can find a lethal toxin capable of killing a Spirit Transformation Realm expert!" Long Mie declared.

Ye Wudao nodded.

"Y-Young Master Ye, I’ll start preparing right away..." Master Skeletal stammered, his body trembling.

"Hmm, I’ll give you one week!" Ye Wudao responded.

"Understood!" Master Skeletal accepted the order and quickly departed.

This group of people was utterly insane!

They dared to target a Spirit Transformation Realm expert!

"I’m not sticking around with them. Offending a Spirit Transformation Realm expert is the kind of trouble that leaves you dead without even knowing how you died!" Master Skeletal thought to himself, his eyes flickering as he sighed. "Forget it. I’ll just get him some entry tokens for the Devil’s Heaven Auction. That way, even if Li Tiandao gets upset, I’ll have something to justify myself..."

...

Time flew by.

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

Jiangbei.

A luxurious five-star hotel suite.

Ye Wudao stood by the window, smoking while looking down at the world below.

Just then, a knock came at the door.

"Who is it?" Zhao Qingtian and others, on high alert, reached for their weapons.

"It’s me, Master Skeletal..."

When Zhao Qingtian opened the door, he saw Master Skeletal had returned.

Ye Wudao turned around, took a drag from his cigarette, and said to Master Skeletal, "How’s it coming along?"

"Reporting to Young Master Ye, here are two entry tokens for the Devil’s Heaven Auction!" Master Skeletal retrieved two black tokens from his robe, wearing a confident expression. "I went through quite a bit to obtain these. With these tokens, you will have unhindered access to the auction!"

Ye Wudao took the tokens and nodded. "Very good!"

Just then, a familiar voice boomed out: "I’m back!"

"It’s Lord Long Mie!"

"Lord Long Mie has returned!" Zhao Qingtian and the others looked at Long Mie with anticipation.

Long Mie strolled in casually, grinning. "Old Ye, got any wine? I’m dying of thirst here!"

"I do!" Ye Wudao pulled out a bottle of wine and tossed it to him.

Long Mie caught the bottle with one hand, gulped it down in one go, belched loudly, and carefully took out a small vial containing a black liquid.

"Lord Long Mie, what’s that?" Zhao Qingtian and the others asked curiously.

"Heh, this is the top-tier poison I mentioned that can take down a Spirit Transformation Realm expert! It’s called Heavenly Yin Soul Devouring Water. Once ingested, even an old monster at the Spirit Transformation Realm will feel like their insides are being shredded to pieces!" Long Mie grinned maliciously.

Hiss!

The crowd gasped once more!

"Is this Heavenly Yin Soul Devouring Water really that powerful?"

"For real?" Will reached out to touch it but was immediately swatted on the hand by Long Mie. "With your cultivation level, a mere touch and you’d dissolve into a puddle of blood!"

"Holy shit!" Will recoiled in alarm, jumping back as cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

"Long Mie, how did you get your hands on this Heavenly Yin Soul Devouring Water?" Ye Wudao asked.

"I know a middleman. I spent 50 Spirit Crystals to buy it from him!" Long Mie replied.

What?!

Spirit Crystals!

Ye Wudao was internally shaken. That amount was no small sum—it was equivalent to 50 billion Spirit Stones!

"Brother, thank you!" Ye Wudao cupped his fists gratefully.

"Heh, no need for thanks between brothers!" Long Mie grinned. "If we manage to take down that bastard Li Tiandao, the rewards will be far more than 50 Spirit Crystals—probably ten times that!"

"Haha!" Ye Wudao laughed heartily.

"But getting Li Tiandao to swallow this Heavenly Yin Soul Devouring Water will be tricky!" Long Mie frowned.

"Leave that to me!" Ye Wudao assured him.

Hearing their audacious conversation, Master Skeletal shivered uncontrollably and began to sneak away.

"Stop!"

Master Skeletal froze in place, immediately turning back with a fawning smile. "Young Master Ye, do you have further instructions for me?"

"What’s your relationship with Li Tiandao?" Ye Wudao asked.

"Well, we’re quite fami—" Master Skeletal quickly realized his slip of the tongue, shook his head frantically, and corrected himself. "No, no! We’re not familiar at all!"

"Is that so?" A cold glint flashed in Ye Wudao’s eyes.

Master Skeletal quickly put on a pleading expression. "Young Master Ye, to be honest, I’ve met Li Tiandao a few times! He’s been trying to recruit me, and the Evil Python Corpse Puppet I possess was gifted by him!"

"It seems Li Tiandao values you quite highly!" Ye Wudao smirked.

"Ahem, I wouldn’t dare say that..." Master Skeletal waved dismissively.

"No need to be modest. Li Tiandao has only recently stepped into the Spirit Transformation Realm, and his foundation within the Heavenly Corpse Sect is shallow. Naturally, he’d want to recruit a veteran like you, already at the late stage of the True Pill Realm." Ye Wudao continued to smile.

"You’re too perceptive, Young Master Ye—nothing escapes your eyes." Master Skeletal forced a laugh.

"Would you like me to remove the restriction from your body?" Ye Wudao asked.

"Yes!"

Without hesitation, Master Skeletal blurted out, though he quickly smiled bitterly. "Heh, Young Master Ye, please don’t tease me. My life is in your hands; whether I want it or not doesn’t matter—it’s up to you!"

"Help me accomplish one thing, and I’ll remove the restriction from your body!" Ye Wudao offered.

What?

Master Skeletal was stunned, then immediately nodded enthusiastically, fearing Ye Wudao might change his mind. "Not just one thing—even ten or a hundred things, I’d do them all!"

"When the Devil’s Heaven Auction begins, I need you to introduce Long Mie and me to Li Tiandao. Tell him we’ve come to pledge our allegiance." Ye Wudao instructed.

Boom!

Master Skeletal was thunderstruck, his face a mask of shock. "Aren’t you afraid of dying?"

"The most dangerous place is often the safest." Ye Wudao replied calmly.

Master Skeletal turned pale as a sheet. If Ye Wudao’s true identity were exposed, he’d surely be implicated!

The thought of Li Tiandao’s fearsome methods sent shivers down Master Skeletal’s spine.

"Think it over carefully," Ye Wudao urged.

"Young Master Ye, if I pull this off, would you grant me one favor?" Master Skeletal asked hesitantly.

"Speak." Ye Wudao said.

"I want to refine Li Tiandao into a corpse puppet." A fierce light glinted in Master Skeletal’s eyes.

Heh, it seems your ambition runs deep, Master Skeletal." Ye Wudao’s lips curled into a faint smile. "But I enjoy dealing with ambitious people. Fine, I accept your condition."

"Thank you, Young Master Ye!" said Master Skeletal, bowing deeply before leaving. "Give me three days at most, and I’ll deliver the news."

Watching Master Skeletal’s departing figure, Long Mie’s expression turned cold. "Old Ye, that Master Skeletal has some serious ambition—to even think about turning Li Tiandao into a corpse puppet. Ruthless. We need to keep an eye on him."

"I allow ambition, but only when it remains under my control. Otherwise, I won’t hesitate to turn him into a corpse himself," Ye Wudao replied.

And so, three days later...

"Young Master, Lord Long Mie, Master Skeletal has returned," Zhao Qingtian announced while opening the door.

Ye Wudao and Long Mie were playing chess.

"Black is winning!" Observing the board, Master Skeletal noticed black’s overwhelming advantage—it was like a black dragon sweeping through the field, leaving white in utter disarray.

Seeing this, Master Skeletal’s heart sank. Perhaps white symbolized his own fate!

Taking on a Spirit Transformation Realm expert like Li Tiandao was nothing short of lunacy!

"Old Ye, when it comes to chess, you’re no match for me!" Long Mie declared confidently, holding a black piece in hand.

Ye Wudao picked up a white piece and chuckled, "Is that so?"

Master Skeletal leaned in and whispered, "Young Master Ye, Li Tiandao has agreed—he’ll meet with you both. Also, the Devil’s Heaven Auction begins tonight at seven."

"Old Ye, it’s just as we planned!" Long Mie exclaimed. "We can head out now!"

"No, this game isn’t over yet." Ye Wudao replied.

"Haha, you’re bound to lose!" Long Mie laughed arrogantly.

"Is that so?" Ye Wudao placed his white piece on the board, unleashing a brilliant killing move. A python sparrow formation emerged, exuding a murderous aura that instantly strangled black’s advantage.

"Hiss, the legendary Python Sparrow Swallows the Dragon—what an incredible counterattack!" Long Mie marveled.

"Let’s go!" Ye Wudao commanded.
