241: Death is approaching

At this moment, Chen Tianming's expression was grave.

He was in an extremely foul mood.

"You dared to lay hands on my family while I was away. Your methods are truly despicable. Today, I'll make you pay the price!"

Seeing his furious demeanor, Du Shaokang would definitely not be his match in a real fight.

"You're causing trouble for me first thing in the morning."

He absolutely wouldn't let Chen Tianming truly harm him, but this matter couldn't be let go so easily.

Suddenly, a bold idea flashed through Du Shaokang's mind, and a wicked smile appeared on his lips.

"Chen Tianming, I didn't intend to make things difficult for you, but you insisted on coming to your own death. Since that's the case, don't blame me!"

Du Shaokang immediately put his plan into action.

After knocking on the door for a long time, waiting like this was not an option. Chen Tianming did not have such a good temper.

Seeing that there was no response, he simply kicked the door open!

"Du Shaokang, where are you? Get out here!"

Chen Tianming roared, his face incredibly grim, covered in cold sweat.

Looking inside the room, it was completely empty and dim, with only the sunlight from outside barely illuminating it.

As soon as he entered, Chen Tianming felt that something was amiss.

The place was filled with an eerie chill, unlike a residence for someone who understood the Five Elements.

"How strange, where could this Du Shaokang be so early in the morning if not here?"

Previously, when he was targeting Du Shaokang, he had even found his live stream. This guy almost spent the entire night in the shop telling fortunes, rarely going out.

Now this is...

"Rustle..."

Suddenly, a sound came from behind him, and Chen Tianming's brows furrowed. But the next second, the door in front of him slammed shut!

Immediately, the place was filled with hidden dangers.

He hadn't even seen the main person yet, but he could already feel his aura. The scene was no longer as calm as before.

"Chen Tianming, I've never seen anyone as eager to die as you. I didn't want to make things difficult for you, but you insisted on seeking death. Today will be your death day!"

It was Du Shaokang's voice.

Listening to the voice, it seemed to be a sound transmission from a distance. He himself was probably no longer in the shop.

Was he so scared that he became like this?

Chen Tianming's expression was cold.

The next second, several hidden compartments opened on the wall!

Then, cold arrows rained down like a storm, attacking Chen Tianming!

Sure enough, this guy had no good intentions!

Chen Tianming could only dodge as fast as possible to avoid being injured by the hidden weapons.

But he didn't expect that the moment he landed, the mirror would trigger other mechanisms.

The floor directly caved in, leaving a large pit!

Fortunately, Chen Tianming's abilities were extraordinary.

He successfully dodged by using the surrounding terrain.

This room had already been modified by Du Shaokang.

Now, this was no longer an antique shop; it was clearly a trap specifically prepared for him!

Meanwhile, Du Shaokang had already reached the back street. He couldn't help but feel incredibly smug.

Through his phone, he could clearly see everything inside the shop and also Chen Tianming's pathetic attempts to escape.

"This is something I specifically prepared, just in case someone came to cause trouble one day. I didn't expect it to be used on this kid, but it's fine. Who told him to come looking for trouble with me first thing in the morning?"

At this moment, Du Shaokang's eyes were filled with hatred.

"I've noted down the matter of the manor for now. Today, I'll settle both old and new scores. No matter what, I'll make him pay the price for it!"

The more Du Shaokang thought about it, the more smug he became.

Once Chen Tianming ran out of strength, these mechanisms would torture him to death. By then, the manor would be without an owner, and he could slightly change the local feng shui to seize it.

Wouldn't the best cultivation spot then be his?

Du Shaokang became more and more pleased the more he thought about it.

But when he looked at his phone again, he was astonished to find that he couldn't find Chen Tianming's figure!

"What the hell, where did this guy go?"

Du Shaokang's face darkened.

He immediately switched surveillance angles.

However, no matter how he searched, he couldn't find Chen Tianming in his shop.

The person seemed to have vanished into thin air, nowhere to be found.

"Impossible, even if he was dealt with by the mechanisms, he wouldn't be without a complete corpse. Where did this person go?"

Du Shaokang muttered to himself.

But at this moment, he really didn't have the courage to go inside and look for Chen Tianming.

In a one-on-one confrontation, he would definitely not be Chen Tianming's opponent.

"This..."

Suddenly, an extremely strong killing intent came from behind him!

Du Shaokang gasped in shock.

Before he could react, a piercing pain came from his back!

Chen Tianming had attacked him from behind!

At this moment, he had no power to resist and was simply knocked down by Chen Tianming!

Looking at Chen Tianming standing before him, his eyes were full of disdain.

"Such petty tricks, and you still think of showing off in front of me? I think you really don't know your place. Today is your death day!"

"How did you get out?"

Du Shaokang coughed twice, his eyes wide with disbelief, but Chen Tianming didn't give him a chance to speak, delivering another fierce blow!

This time, Du Shaokang learned his lesson and dodged immediately.

But his abilities were ultimately no match for Chen Tianming.

Before long, countless large and small injuries appeared on his body!

"Cough, cough..."

The man knelt on the ground, coughing violently, his face incredibly pale.

And Chen Tianming showed no sign of stopping, instead approaching him step by step!

"What are you doing!"

It was false to say he wasn't scared. At this moment, Du Shaokang was extremely panicked, almost wetting his pants.

He couldn't even wipe the blood from the corner of his lips, only retreating at an extremely fast speed, hoping Chen Tianming would let him go.

But Chen Tianming's eyes were filled with resentment.

"Scheming against others in every possible way, did you never think that one day you would also be ambushed by someone else? You dared to lay hands on my family while I was away, you've got some nerve!"

"You... why do you say this has something to do with me? Are you blaming me just because someone in your family got sick?"

The next second, Chen Tianming rushed to his front, his hands tightly gripping Du Shaokang's neck. The man's eyes immediately widened.

He was so shocked he could barely utter a single word.

"Did I say they were sick? Are you confessing without being prompted?"

Du Shaokang's eyes widened, and he realized that he had just exposed himself!

"Chen Tianming, you can't kill me! This is the antique street, aren't you afraid of being discovered by others? Besides, I have so many fans on my live streaming platform, you... Ah!"
