The Playboy Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO-Chapter 828 - 730: The Corpse Demon’s Plan

After Nangong Hao purchased the Chen Family's land located at East Sea Bay, construction began immediately the next day.

Large bulldozers, excavators, and big trucks were busily working at the construction site.

"Tian, why did you agree to sell the land to Nangong Hao?"

In the Chen Family main hall, Chen Ming looked at Yang Tian with puzzled eyes.

Not only Chen Ming, but the elderly Liang Clan Madam, Chen Shangzheng, and even the three women Wu Zetian, Wu Yue, and Ling Ying were puzzled upon hearing that Yang Tian had agreed to sell a piece of land situated at East Sea Bay to his business rival, Nangong Hao, whom the Chen Family had always suppressed.

"I just wanted to see what Nangong Hao intended to do after purchasing the land because I sensed the aura of the Corpse Demon on him."

Yang Tian spoke casually.

"The aura of the Corpse Demon?"

Everyone trembled in response.

"Does that mean Nangong Hao is already a Corpse Demon?"

Chen Ming's face turned somber.

He had certainly heard that the Corpse Demon was coming to hunt down the Chen Family's members, as the Chen blood could turn the Corpse Demon into a terrifying Fierce Demon.

"Nangong Hao is not a Corpse Demon yet; he merely carries the aura of the Corpse Demon within him."

Yang Tian spoke casually again.

"So Tian, you think Nangong Hao's purchase of our Chen Family land is related to the Corpse Demon?"

Chen Shangzheng inquired.

"Yes, I want to see if Nangong Hao's actions are indeed the Corpse Demon's idea, especially with the Corpse Demon being quite active recently."

Yang Tian replied. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"The Corpse Demon has been active lately?"

Chen Shangzheng was startled: "But wasn't it said that the Corpse Demon had vanished earlier this month? Rumor has it they've retreated back to the Demon Realm."

"Our gatekeeper has the Corpse Demon aura within him as well; the Corpse Demon hasn't vanished; it's secretly scheming in the shadows." Wu Zetian stated solemnly: "The Corpse Demon established a small sect here in the Capital City, called the Saint Emperor Sect, consisting entirely of terminally ill individuals. In the real world, they have no way to seek medical help, but within the Saint Emperor Sect, they only need to receive the Corpse Demon's light for a month, thereby curing their incurable diseases completely."

Upon hearing this, the main hall was in an uproar.

"Is that true, Martial Arts Master?" Chen Shangzheng asked eagerly.

"It's true." Yang Tian affirmed: "The Corpse Demon founded the Saint Emperor Sect in the Capital City, indeed recruiting many terminally ill believers. Even our gatekeeper's wife, Huang's wife, suffers from lung cancer. This past year, they've been living a painful existence, but the Saint Emperor Sect has resurrected them."

"If this is the case, it's truly surprising. Isn't the Corpse Demon humanity's archenemy? How can it cure human diseases?"

Chen Ming asked in confusion.

"They're likely recruiting believers. As the number of believers grows, these believers will have tremendous faith in the Corpse Demon, allowing the Corpse Demon to firmly grasp their fate."

The elderly Liang Clan Madam articulated.

"Grandma is right; we think so too."

Wu Yue nodded in agreement.

"What should we do next? If these believers are indeed cured of their diseases by the Corpse Demon, this newfound strength cannot be underestimated."

Chen Shangzheng spoke anxiously.

"We'll know what they intend to do simply by watching them."

Yang Tian stood up, gathered the three women, Wu Zetian included, and headed for East Sea Bay.

"If this plot of land was indeed bought by the Corpse Demon, what do they intend to do?"

Wu Yue wondered aloud.

"Perhaps they're building a church."

Yang Tian, looking at the lush green grasslands through the car window, mused.

Soon, the car arrived at the East Sea Bay area, which had already been cordoned off by the Nangong Family. Numerous large trucks entered and exited, hauling loads of yellow earth.

Yang Tian used his Divine Sense to probe inside, quickly noticing several pits dug out in the mountainous terrain for constructing foundations.

Inside the construction site, a blueprint was pinned to an iron plate.

Yang Tian focused his gaze and found the blueprint depicted several churches.

"They are indeed building a church!"

Wu Yue exclaimed in surprise.

"Nangong Hao spent so much money purchasing this plot to build a church and offer it to the Corpse Demon..."

A cold glint appeared in Yang Tian's eyes.

He continued probing the construction site with his Divine Sense until his silhouette silently slipped through, heading for the control room.

Inside the control room, an elder wearing a helmet directed the situation at the site.

Behind him stood a group of site leaders.

Yang Tian's presence fell silently behind the crowd.

"This is the gift we're offering to the Divine Spirit, so you must complete construction quickly. Before long, the Divine Spirit will descend upon this land and coexist with us. Under the Divine Spirit's protection, our incurable diseases will be thoroughly healed."

The elder spoke with fervor.

He was none other than Nangong Hao.

Upon hearing this, the leaders surrounding him displayed excited expressions: "Once the Divine Spirit descends, it will bring us blessings, and our incurable diseases will be cured. Glory to the Divine Spirit!"

As they spoke, the leaders were about to kneel.

At this moment, a sharp gleam flashed across Yang Tian's eyes.

No wonder they all seemed like upper-echelon elite; these people weren't site workers but rather terminally ill individuals here to build the church for the Corpse Demon.

"Who are you?"

Suddenly, a shout rang out.

Nangong Hao and others turned around and were shocked upon recognizing Yang Tian.

"Mr. Yang, is it you?"

Nangong Hao, also recognizing Yang Tian, was puzzled and hurried over: "Mr. Yang, why are you here? This land has already been purchased by our Nangong Family; are you saying the Chen Family wants to backtrack?"

"Nangong Hao, summon your so-called Divine Spirit."

Yang Tian spoke calmly.

"You wish to see our Divine Spirit?" The crowd was shocked and then infuriated: "Our Divine Spirit is sacred; how could lowly people like you behold it? Unless you join our sect!"

"I told you to call your Divine Spirit out; didn't you hear me?"

Yang Tian gathered his Spiritual Breath, and with a heavy palm, struck the monitors ahead.

Boom!

A deafening rumble ensued, and in an instant, all the monitors shattered.

The crowd was caught off guard, faces frozen in place.

"Mr. Yang, what is this…"

Nangong Hao's expression changed.

Just then, a chilling voice descended from above: "Yang Tian, are you so eager to see us?"

"Divine Spirit!"

Nangong Hao and everyone's faces lit up with joy, as they all knelt down before him.

A glow descended from above, and a Corpse Demon appeared slowly.

"Corpse Demon, constructing churches in the human world, recruiting the terminally ill—what are you plotting? Intending to invade the human world?"

Yang Tian spoke with icy detachment.

"No, we won't invade the human world, nor fight against you humans. On the contrary, we come here to utilize the Demon Array to transform completely into humans."

A cold voice resonated.

"You intend to become human?"

Yang Tian frowned deeply.
