Chapter 386: Tricked

Red Flame Star.

This is a massive transit planet.

On this planet, there is a vast group of interstellar teleportation arrays that can simultaneously connect over a hundred targets from different directions for teleportation.

At one moment, a teleportation array lit up, and soon after, a woman in white appeared on the array.

This woman in white is Ye Jian.

After Ye Jian arrived, she quickly scanned her surroundings with her divine sense and found that her perception was limited to a small area due to the formations blocking it.

In front of the teleportation array, she noticed a young male cultivator with a transformation stage cultivation level.

Seeing Ye Jian, the transformation stage cultivator quickly asked, "Transit or direct landing?"

"Transit, to Sky Blue Star."

"To Sky Blue Star, go to teleportation array 14. Once there are one hundred people, we will start the teleportation. It costs ten thousand low-grade spirit stones per person and takes about thirty-four sittings on the interstellar teleportation array," said the transformation stage cultivator to Ye Jian.

"What about solo teleportation?"

"Solo teleportation costs one million spirit stones, and it will teleport immediately," replied the transformation stage cultivator.

"Alright, I’ll go solo. Is one superior grade spirit stone enough?" Ye Jian took out a superior grade spirit stone and tossed it to him.

A single superior grade spirit stone is equivalent to one million low-grade spirit stones.

Seeing Ye Jian’s superior grade spirit stone, the transformation stage cultivator’s eyes lit up.

He then looked at the teleportation array’s display, which showed a quality below the transformation stage.

The teleportation array can detect the quality of the materials being teleported; the higher the cultivation level, the greater the displayed quality.

Seeing this, he calmly said to Ye Jian, "Alright, I’ll activate the teleportation for you now."

With that, the transformation stage cultivator quickly activated the teleportation array.

In a flash of blinding light, Ye Jian’s figure disappeared from the teleportation array.

When Ye Jian opened her eyes again, she found herself in the starry sky.

The moment she appeared, Ye Jian noticed a sharp attack heading towards her.

Seeing this, she instinctively activated her defensive immortal armor.

Bang!

The next moment, the attack struck her defensive immortal armor fiercely, sending Ye Jian’s body flying quickly in one direction due to the immense impact.

In the starry sky, if Ye Jian did not stop herself, she could continue flying in a straight line.

However, in the next moment, she used her divine sense to stabilize her figure.

Her divine sense scanned the area and quickly identified the person who ambushed her.

It was a middle-aged man at the integration stage, and as soon as he saw Ye Jian being knocked away, he immediately began to chase her.

"Looking for death."

Ye Jian did not expect that such a lowly integration stage cultivator would dare to ambush her, an immortal.

The next moment, Ye Jian directly unleashed her immortal pressure and swiftly reached out her right hand towards the Integration stage man.

"What?"

Feeling the immortal pressure emanating from Ye Jian, the transformation stage cultivator was horrified.

"Please spare my life, Senior."

Before the Integration cultivator could finish his plea, Ye Jian had already caught him in her grip.

At the same time, his entire cultivation level was sealed, leaving him unable to move.

Soul Searching.

Ye Jian immediately initiated Soul Searching.

However, as she began, she discovered that the Integration cultivator’s primordial spirit was protected by a restriction from the great emperor realm.

To perform Soul Searching, Ye Jian needed to break through this great emperor realm restriction. Although she was already a human immortal, her primordial spirit was too fragile, and if she forced the Soul Searching, she couldn’t guarantee that she would find anything.

"Please spare my life, Senior. I will tell you anything you want to know."

Seeing Ye Jian ready to perform Soul Searching, the Integration cultivator quickly begged for mercy and offered to cooperate with her questions.

Hearing this, Ye Jian coldly asked, "Where is this? Why did you ambush me?"

With a bitter smile, the Integration cultivator replied, "Senior, it was my offense. You suddenly intruded into my area, so I attacked. If I had known you were a Tribulation stage great emperor, I wouldn’t have dared to do it even with a hundred lives!"

Hearing these words, Ye Jian scanned the starry sky with her divine sense and found that there was nothing around—just stars.

She also noticed that there was a teleportation route nearby, with the starting point where she stood, leading to the teleportation array connected to the Red Flame Star.

In the next moment, Ye Jian’s expression grew cold.

"Since you won’t speak, then die."

Ye Jian was now certain that this Integration cultivator was lying to her.

In the next moment, she prepared to kill him.

"Wait, Senior! I’ll talk! Just give me another chance!" The Integration cultivator hastily begged for another opportunity as he sensed his imminent death.

"Speak. If I feel you’re lying to me, I won’t hesitate to kill you," Ye Jian said coldly.

"Senior, I colluded with Wu Jianjun to set a trap to rob some lone cultivators…" The Integration cultivator explained quickly.

Finally, he pleaded, "Senior, it was Wu Jianjun who orchestrated all this; please spare me."

"Wu Jianjun is the one who teleported me?" Ye Jian asked the Integration cultivator.

"Yes, Senior! He usually screens solo cultivators with lower cultivation levels and teleports them here. I didn’t expect him to send you—he deserves to die! Please don’t let him go," the Integration cultivator gritted his teeth.

That scoundrel Wu Jianjun actually dared to teleport a Tribulation stage great emperor here—did he want him dead?

At that moment, the Integration cultivator cursed Wu Jianjun countless times in his mind.

Hearing the Integration cultivator’s words, Ye Jian lightly replied, "He deserves to die, and so do you."

Saying this, before the Integration cultivator could react, Ye Jian casually waved, and with immense power, he was instantly obliterated.

In the next moment, a storage ring appeared in Ye Jian’s hand.

After scanning it with her divine sense, Ye Jian showed a look of disdain.

The Integration cultivator was truly poor.

Glancing towards the teleportation route, Ye Jian quickly flew towards the other end.

Today, she was going to kill the Divine Transformation stage cultivator who had sent her; no one would save him—what Ye Jian said was final.

Half a month later, Ye Jian reappeared at the Red Flame Star.

However, this time, she flew back directly from outer space.

Upon arriving in the outer space of the Red Flame Star, Ye Jian swiftly scanned her surroundings and quickly located the group of interstellar teleportation arrays.

Just as Ye Jian was scanning the Red Flame Star with her divine sense, another divine sense suddenly swept towards her from the star.

"Greetings, friend! I am Ming Zhe, the Elder of the Red Flame Immortal Palace. May I ask where you come from and your name?"

As soon as this divine sense appeared, Ye Jian immediately locked onto it.

In a vast mountain range on the Red Flame Star, an enormous formation was shrouded.

Outside the formation stood an elderly man in a green long robe, gazing at Ye Jian from a distance.

From his aura, Ye Jian deduced that he was a perfect Late stage Great Ascension cultivator, likely on the verge of breaking through to the Tribulation stage.

"Greetings, friend. My name is Ye Jian," Ye Jian said with a slight bow.

"Ah, it is you, Ye Jian. May I ask what brings you here? Are you looking to use the teleportation array?" Ming Zhe continued to inquire.

Hearing this, Ye Jian replied directly, "Half a month ago, I was tricked by a young Divine Transformation stage cultivator using the interstellar teleportation array here. He ambushed me as I appeared in an empty starry space. Luckily, I am a Tribulation stage; otherwise, if it were a cultivator below the Integration stage, the outcome would have been dire."

She did not mention that she was an immortal; being a Tribulation stage great emperor was enough.

After finishing, Ye Jian asked Ming Zhe, "So, I am here to capture someone. I hope you have no objections, Ming Zhe."

"That’s certainly no problem. May I know who this scoundrel is? Such harmful individuals do not need you to handle them; I will personally clean up and even offer my apologies to you," Ming Zhe said to Ye Jian.

"It’s a young Divine Transformation stage cultivator named Wu Jianjun," Ye Jian replied lightly.

Upon hearing Ye Jian’s words, Ming Zhe’s heart skipped a beat, but he remained composed on the surface.

"Ye Jian, I will have someone bring Wu Jianjun to you for your handling. If you don’t mind, please come as my guest to the Red Flame Immortal Palace," Ming Zhe said.
