Chapter 966: Chapter 976: Digging Up the Grave! (Three Updates)
No one can stop a dead man’s path forward.
At this moment, as the crowd smashed open the gates.
They immediately launched into a frenzy of beating the security guard from earlier.
Following this, Tang Zhong continued walking, accompanied closely by the pallbearers.
After the group entered, they headed toward the grand burial ground in the distance.
The so-called grand burial ground was established in the martyr cemetery by certain Martial Arts Families like the Yan Family for their own clan!
Within the grand burial ground, only members of these Martial Arts Families could be buried after death.
"Let’s go to the grand burial ground!" Tang Zhong said as he walked directly toward the burial ground.
In his eyes, the old general deserved to be buried here!
At that moment, Yan Biao, sitting in a car outside, spotted Tang Zhong’s actions. He immediately jumped out of the car and shouted toward Tang Zhong and his group: "Stop right there! This is the grand burial ground! It’s not a place for you to enter! Only members from a select few prestigious families are eligible to be buried here. What do you think you are?!"
Yan Biao then pointed toward the far-off civilian graveyard and continued, "Your destination is over there, not here!"
Tang Zhong saw Yan Biao and had anticipated his interference: "Scram!"
"You dare tell me to scram? Do you know who I am? I’m part of the Yan Family! Last time, you beat my son Yan Long into idiocy, and that grudge hasn’t been settled yet. Are you looking to die?" Yan Biao roared.
Previously, Yan Long suffered a loss at Tang Zhong’s hands and was left mentally incapacitated. Yan Biao held in his anger, knowing Tang Zhong’s strength, as Yan Ho had already warned him of Tang Zhong’s reputation. However, just three days ago, Yan Chihuo was set to emerge.
After hearing about Tang Zhong’s deeds, Yan Chihuo had only one thing to say: "How could the mighty Yan Family ever be intimidated?"
Thus, the Yan Family’s courage surged anew.
With Yan Chihuo as their backing, they feared no one!
When Tang Zhong heard Yan Biao’s words, he wasted no breath on futility: "Refuse to leave, and you’ll die!"
Enraged, Yan Biao trembled violently. Though aware of Tang Zhong’s power, he subdued his fury. Suddenly, a sinister idea flashed through his mind, and he retreated.
"Fine! Since you’re determined to enter, I’ll let you pass!" Yan Biao said.
Tang Zhong said no more and pressed forward without delay, mindful of the old general’s burial time.
They soon arrived at the grand burial ground, surrounded by the tombs of countless historical generals who had made monumental contributions to Xuan Country. The grave had already been dug beforehand.
The old general was directly interred.
After all the ceremonial steps were completed, it was finally time to bury him completely and seal the grave.
As the coffin was slowly lowered into the burial site.
At that moment, the Dragon Group members who had followed burst into grieved tears. Every individual in the Dragon Group had, in some way, benefited from the old general’s kindness!
Tang Zhong stood amidst the crowd, gazing at the coffin, muttering inwardly: "Rest in peace. Don’t worry. I swear to avenge you!"
Finally, the grave was complete, and the pre-carved headstone was erected in its place. Thus, the old general was buried.
Raindrops trickled onto the grave.
After some time, the crowd dispersed.
Tang Zhong and his companions prepared to return to the Dragon Group.
Yan Biao, however, lingered behind, glaring at Peng Yuan’s grave with a sinister smile. "Old fool, what gives you, a mere commoner, the audacity to intrude into a place meant for nobles? Well, I’ll let you stay here for a few days!"
With that, Yan Biao turned and left.
Tang Zhong and his group returned to the Dragon Group headquarters.
The Dragon Group could not afford to fall after the old general’s death, so everyone quickly rallied their spirits.
However, the temporary lack of leadership was the group’s biggest concern.
Almost all members recommended Tang Zhong to take over as the leader. He vividly remembered the old general’s words, urging him to shoulder the banner of the Dragon Group and revive its glory.
But this was not the most pressing matter. Investigating the cause of the old general’s death was key.
To uncover the truth for the old general.
A week later!
News soon struck like lightning through the Dragon Group.
Li Linglong rushed into Tang Zhong’s office in a panic.
"It’s bad!"
"What happened?" Tang Zhong asked urgently upon seeing Li Linglong’s frantic state.
"That despicable Yan Family—they dug up the old general’s grave!" Li Linglong exclaimed.
"What did you say?" At that moment, Tang Zhong’s eyes burned crimson with fury.
Without a second thought, he rushed out, heading straight to the martyr cemetery.
At the entrance, Tang Zhong got out of his car, finding the area swarming with people. He pushed through the crowd with force.
Upon arriving at the grand burial ground, he saw several excavators digging up graves.
Their target was Peng Yuan’s grave.
Nearby, Yan Biao stood directing the excavators.
"Stop right there!" Tang Zhong roared.
He dashed forward, only to see that the excavators had already unearthed a massive pit. Part of a coffin corner emerged from the soil, instantly recognizable to him—it was Peng Yuan’s coffin, the very one he had personally laid to rest. How could he not know it?
In an instant, Tang Zhong’s entire gaze blazed with crimson fury.
At this moment, Yan Biao saw Tang Zhong’s arrival and feigned innocence, grinning. "Ah, Tang General—wait, no, I should say Tang Leader now!"
As Yan Biao noticed the pain etched onto Tang Zhong’s face, he burst into laughter.
Indeed, ever since Peng Yuan had been laid to rest, Yan Biao had conceived an insidious plan: to unearth Peng Yuan’s coffin.
This was the "lesson" Yan Biao intended for Peng Yuan!
Preventing the burial that day couldn’t compare to today’s grave desecration, which brought Yan Biao far greater satisfaction.
After all, the Yan Family’s forefather, Yan Chihuo, had expressed that the prestigious Yan Family must never bow to humiliation!
Thus, humiliate they must. And now, Yan Biao reveled in his deeds with satisfaction!
"You did this?" Tang Zhong’s voice dripped with cold malice.
Peng Yuan had only just been buried, and now his grave had been violated.
To make matters worse, Peng Yuan hadn’t even reached the seventh day after his passing!
Feigning ignorance, Yan Biao replied mockingly, "Tang Leader, what do you mean by that? I’m afraid I don’t follow!" His taunting smile made his intent all too clear.
"No need for you to understand." Tang Zhong replied icily.
His words struck fear into Yan Biao, whose body trembled unconsciously. Could this man actually kill him?
Surely he wouldn’t dare!
Yan Biao thought to himself, convinced of his safety, and spoke at once: "Today, our Yan Family forefather Yan Chihuo declared that the graves of our Yan lineage must be inspected to ensure their integrity underground. I truly don’t understand why Tang Leader is so concerned!"
"To witness your family’s grandeur, of course!" Tang Zhong replied frostily, then hurled a fist toward Yan Biao.
