The moment Yang Lu uttered those words, Lin Qinghan felt a surge of overwhelming killing intent erupt from the old ghost, a palpable ferocity churning forth.

The tables and chairs shattered with a crash, splinters flew everywhere, the villa trembled violently, dust fell in a flurry, and the window frames creaked mournfully.

Lin Qinghan felt as if a huge rock was pressing on her chest, and her legs went weak. Under this overwhelming pressure, she couldn't utter a single word.

Is this the power of a Grandmaster?! She then looked at Yang Lu with great concern; how could he possibly withstand this?!

"You're dead! You're dead! Hahaha..."

Lying on the sofa, Liang Zhu saw Yang Lu's pained expression across from him, as if he were about to collapse at any moment. He couldn't help but grin maliciously. At that moment, he felt his backache disappear, his leg pain vanish, and he could even climb hundreds of floors in one breath!

He's really courting death! This guy is a true grandmaster!

Lin Qinghan gritted her teeth, deciding to draw her sword. Even though there wasn't even a one in ten thousand chance of winning, she still had to make her move.

"Forehead……"

"Cough cough..."

But just as Lin Qinghan was about to draw her sword, she suddenly noticed that the murderous aura that had been permeating the entire villa vanished instantly, and then the old ghost on the other side turned pale and began to cough heavily. Lin Qinghan's instinct told her that something was wrong.

"I never expected you to poison me. I'd like to know when you did it!"

The old ghost took out a bottle from his pocket, stuffed all the antidote pills into his mouth, and then, while circulating his true energy, stared intently at Yang Lu and said.

To be honest, he had never taken this ant seriously from beginning to end, but now he suddenly realized that this ant was not quite what he had imagined.

He had poisoned himself without anyone noticing, but his internal energy instantly reversed.

I just don't know when this guy poisoned me, since I don't seem to have had any contact with him at all.

"You were poisoned the moment you came into contact with that guy."

After hearing what the old man said, Yang Lu didn't keep him in suspense and told him directly. From the moment he arrived at the villa, he knew that Liang Zhu was no ordinary person.

How could someone like that not have top-tier experts around him!

"You little brat, you're shameless! Old Ghost, this guy absolutely, positively cannot be allowed to live!"

Upon hearing Yang Lu's words, Liang Zhu instantly became enraged. He hadn't expected that this guy had schemed against him from the very beginning. He felt a sense of fear towards Yang Lu.

If this kind of person is given time, what will become of him? Therefore, no matter what the cost, we must get rid of this guy now!

"You have indeed surprised me somewhat, but at my level, even the most potent poison in the world cannot kill me! You will still die today!"

The old man nodded, then looked at Yang Lu and began to speak.

Today, anyone else would probably have fallen for this guy's trick, but unfortunately, I am a Grandmaster! My strength is formidable, and I just took an antidote pill, so I will be able to control the poison in no time.

He might not be able to kill this guy right now, but if he wanted to kill him, there was absolutely no way he could! Once he controlled the poison, this guy would be dead for sure!

Old Ghost has made up his mind that this guy must be dealt with today no matter what, otherwise he will definitely bring trouble to the Liang family in the future!

"Ah...it hurts so much! Old ghost, help me, help me! I can't take it anymore!"

After the old man finished speaking, he expected Yang Lu to say something, but Yang Lu remained silent, which made the old man's heart skip a beat. The old man had seen countless people in his life and was very good at judging people, but today, he couldn't see through this guy.

Just then, Liang Zhu, who was lying on the sofa, began to wail in pain, which startled the old ghost. Normally, after taking his unique elixir, he shouldn't have had this reaction within an hour.

Yang Lu saw Liang Zhu's pained expression but was not surprised at all, and then said calmly.

"Your strength is indeed formidable, but he can't keep up! If you don't infuse him with true energy soon, he might not be able to withstand it. If he dies, I doubt his grandfather will let you off the hook!"

After hearing Yang Lu's words, Gui Lao accelerated and appeared in front of Liang Zhu. Then, a continuous stream of true energy flowed into his body.

"Boy, today, I will kill you!"

"Yes, kill him! Kill him!"

He finally understood what Yang Lu was thinking.

They want to use the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai to delay me before making their move!

But his wish was destined to be in vain. Although he couldn't kill him right now, no one could kill him at this time either!

As long as he could suppress the poison in Liang Zhu's body, he would tear Yang Lu to pieces! Liang Zhu, who had been injected with true energy, felt that he was back to normal and then looked at Yang Lu with a ferocious expression.

I've never been so pathetic before. If I can't kill this guy today, I'll change my name!

"Did you feel something enter your body just now?"

The moment Yang Lu finished speaking, the old man hurriedly pulled his hand back, then looked at Yang Lu with a shocked expression and asked.

"What did you do!"

Just now, when I was channeling my inner energy into the young master, I vaguely felt something enter my body from his. I thought it was just my imagination, since it only lasted for a moment.
