Uncle Nine: Starting with double pupils, he turned his master into a zombie.

Night fell, and the Wang family compound was brightly lit.

Li Yu stood quietly at the still-wet hipped roof.

A pair of double pupils gleamed with brilliance as they examined the Wang family ancestral shrine with great interest.

"This heretical cultivator... he's got some tricks up his sleeve!"

It must be said that the methods these evil cultivators used to conceal themselves were quite ingenious.

A secret chamber was built beneath the ancestral hall, and then an array was set up to conceal all traces of their presence.

If it were any other cultivator, they probably wouldn't be able to smell it even after searching for three days!

But Li Yu... let's not even mention his double pupils that seem to see through everything.

The mere presence of the malevolent energy emanating from underground was enough to invigorate him!

The smell is too strong; the spirit is overjoyed!

What's the difference between this and putting grain in front of mice?

You could feel your way there with your eyes closed!

Just then, the back door of the main house creaked open.

Wang Yongfu walked out, followed by his butler, who was pulling a cart piled high with sacks.

After the steward pushed the cart into the ancestral hall, Wang Yongfu waved his hand and spoke.

"You can leave now."

"Yes, sir."

The sensible housekeeper didn't ask any further questions, after all, this kind of situation had happened many times before.

Click....

The airtight door was closed.

Wang Yongfu did not act immediately, but waited for a full five minutes before taking any action.

He walked up to his father's altar, grabbed his father's memorial tablet with his big hand, pressed it down hard, and then turned it to the right a full circle!

boom!

A crisp sound rang out.

The once smooth wall now revealed two passageways.

One is a staircase for people to walk on, and the other is a smooth passageway leading downwards.

After throwing the sacks off the cart one by one, Wang Yongfu wiped the sweat from his brow before panting as he walked down the steps.

He was completely unaware that a paper figure, no bigger than a fingernail, was crouching inside his collar.

Its bright, lively eyes sparkled as it curiously surveyed everything around it.

Upon entering the secret room, a pungent smell of blood assaulted the senses.

What comes into view is a crimson pool of blood, from which white bones can be seen floating out from time to time.

Wang Yongfu's throat bobbed, and his expression clearly showed his discomfort.

Although it wasn't the first time I'd seen it, I still couldn't accept the bloody scene.

Especially after learning what was inside that pool of blood...

"The appointed time hasn't arrived yet, why are you here?"

A muscular figure suddenly appeared in front of Wang Yongfu, startling him!

"Sir...!"

"I have another request to make!"

"Don't worry, the payment is ready!"

Wang Yongfu dared not look the man in the eye and quickly walked down to the passageway to the pile of sacks.

Untying it revealed a series of unconscious children!

So many children piled up together, it's almost like a small mountain, there are more than a dozen of them!

The man narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice flat and unchanging.

"Tell me, what else do you want?"

"I...I want to absorb the Ren family!"

"Sir, if you can help me achieve this goal, I promise, one hundred! One hundred!"

Wang Yongfu mustered his courage, looked into the man's eyes, and held up one finger.

The air was silent for a moment, then the man suddenly laughed.

"Okay, I promise you."

"However, starting this month, the monthly pay will double."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yongfu's eye twitched slightly.

The monthly pay is twenty; if it's doubled, it'll be forty!

You should know that in order to satisfy this guy's demands, the Southern Capital is now in a state of panic, and even the Marshal's Mansion has heard about it!

Who knows when it will reach Long Dafu's ears and lead to a thorough investigation!

The quantity has doubled; isn't this defying the rules?!

But thinking of the wealth accumulated by the Ren family over generations, Wang Yongfu gritted his teeth.

"Okay! Double it then!"

"However, sir, this will take some time..."

Before Wang Yongfu could finish speaking, the man spoke up.

"Three months. In three months, the entire Ren family will be yours."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yongfu breathed a sigh of relief.

Three months? How can they possibly hold on?

If all else fails, we can just catch them somewhere else.

"Sir, then I'll leave it to you!"

"I won't disturb your time any longer, I'll be leaving now."

Having received the promise, Wang Yongfu left the secret room satisfied.

Watching his departing figure, the man smiled, then suddenly spoke.

"Remember, keep it a secret!"

"Yes, sir!"

After Wang Yongfu left, the man looked at the pile of sacks that had formed a small mountain, and a look of emotion appeared on his face.

"Truly, human greed knows no bounds."

Greed is always a harbinger of death!

As a man of the Way of the Dead, he was well aware of his own identity.

Therefore, he never used his cultivation to commit evil deeds outside, but instead chose to live off these families.

If there's anything you need, just let them take care of it!

Furthermore, the man never did anything excessive, lest he attract attention.

At most, it'll just be like what happened to Master Ren, making him a little unlucky.

Who knows if he goes too far and some righteous cultivator passing by might discover him and eliminate him!

This man has taken the art of survival to its extreme!

As for what to do about the things that were promised?

There's a saying that goes, "If you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who raised it!"

At that point, they'll simply move on to another place to continue parasitizing.

If you think about it, the Wang family seems to be the third family he's ever lived in, right?

"Don't worry, considering how hard you've worked these past few months, I won't let you suffer after three months."

"Hmm... let him die from a stroke! That's a good idea!"

The man didn't notice when he was talking to himself.

From the gaps between the piled-up burlap sacks, a tiny paper figure took in everything.

Ancestral hall.

Wang Yongfu returned to the ground, closed the passage, and restored everything to its original state.

Pushing open the door, a pleasant breeze wafts in.

Wang Yongfu couldn't help but squint his eyes with satisfaction.

With the Ren family on the verge of destruction, my Wang family can grow stronger once again!

Thinking of this, Wang Yongfu was in a great mood.

However, something is strange: this wind... why does it have a strong smell of blood?

Didn't I just come out of the secret room?

"Wang Er?"

Wang Yongfu called out to the housekeeper, but received no response for a long time, and looked somewhat puzzled.

In the past, Wang Er would wait for him to come out from a short distance away and prevent others from entering.

Where did you go today?

Just then, something round bumped into his calf.

There were no lights installed in the ancestral hall, so it was impossible to see what it was.

Wang Yongfu picked it up, took a few steps outside, and, with the help of the dim light, saw what was in his hand!

"ah!!!"

With a gasp, Wang Yongfu threw down what he was holding.

Under the light, it was clearly a head with wide-open eyes, as if it had seen something incredible!

"Wang...Wang Er is dead?!"

Instantly, Wang Yongfu realized something was wrong.

Combined with the smell of blood I just smelled.

Something's not right... Something's extremely wrong!

At this moment, Wang Yongfu forgot all about his wife and children.

He ran desperately towards the ancestral hall, hoping to ask the gentleman to see what had happened.

Just as he was about to touch the door of the ancestral hall.

A large hand suddenly slapped him on the shoulder, preventing him from taking another step!

"Master Wang, where are you in such a hurry to go?"
