As she uttered those words, Madam Ao's originally beautiful face became distorted with extreme resentment. She stared intently at Wang Yang, her eyes burning with a raging rage mixed with endless hatred and malice.
It should be noted that everything she and the Sword Demon had meticulously planned before revolved around her beloved son, Aotian.
They went to great lengths to collect the blood of the Three Poisons, hoping to use it to forge the legendary peerless sword, and then find a way to let Aotian seize the sword, thereby dominating the martial arts world with it.
But now? All the plans have been ruined because of that despicable Wang Yang.
What pained her even more and was that her precious son, Aotian, had been killed by Wang Yang.
Thinking of this, Madam Ao's hatred surged like a tidal wave, impossible to suppress.
Just recalling the incident briefly caused her eyes to become bloodshot, a mixture of anger and sorrow making her look like a wild beast out of control.
Finally, she could no longer contain her emotions and sternly rebuked the Sword Demon beside her: "Sword Demon, what are you still standing there for? Have you forgotten our agreement?"
"If I cannot tear this man to pieces today, I swear I will not rest!"
However, upon hearing Lady Ao's angry shout, the Sword Demon did not act immediately as she had expected.
He was slightly taken aback, a hint of hesitation appearing on his face, and his gaze unconsciously drifted to Wang Yang, who looked calm and composed.
For some reason, Wang Yang appeared remarkably calm and composed at this moment, showing absolutely no fear.
This unusual behavior made the Sword Demon suspicious, and for a moment he became hesitant.
His calm and collected demeanor was completely different from that of Yang Xiao and the other poisoned individuals.
Lady Ao stared intently at the Sword Demon with her beautiful eyes, only to see him frozen in place as if under a spell, completely motionless.
Her already icy expression instantly darkened, her eyebrows furrowed, and her lips parted slightly as she demanded irritably, "What's going on?" Her voice betrayed a hint of dissatisfaction and anger.
"The poison has already been administered, and things have developed to this point. Are you now shrinking back and afraid to make a move?" Madam Ao continued to press the Sword Demon relentlessly.
Upon hearing this, the Sword Demon trembled slightly. A resolute look flashed in his deep and sharp eyes, as if he had made up his mind.
He gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, "Well, things have come to this, so I have no choice but to fight to the death!" Before he finished speaking, he moved swiftly, rushing towards Wang Yang like a gust of wind.
Wang Yang was sitting comfortably in his seat, seemingly oblivious to the impending danger. He was composed, with a faint smile on his lips, appearing completely unconcerned.
However, in the blink of an eye, the Sword Demon had already arrived in front of Wang Yang like a ghost. He swung his arm and suddenly threw out a palm, the wind howling and carrying the force of a thunderbolt, directly hitting Wang Yang's lower dantian! The speed and power of this palm were astonishing.
Judging from the current situation, it is clear that they intend to completely destroy Wang Yang's Qi Sea Dantian.
The purpose of this was simple: if the poison of the Softening Tendon Powder that Wang Yang had been given gradually dissipated, and he lost his Qi Sea Dantian as a foundational support, he would no longer be able to pose any threat to the enemy.
However, to the Sword Demon's utter surprise, just as he unleashed his full power with that palm strike, Wang Yang subtly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a mysterious and enigmatic smile to him.
In the blink of an eye, a deafening roar, like a thunderclap from a clear sky, erupted from Wang Yang's body, unleashing a vast and boundless powerful aura.
Immediately afterwards, another deafening sonic boom suddenly rang out, echoing through the sky and reverberating throughout the entire space.
Everyone quickly looked closely and were shocked to find that the once imposing sword demon was now like a kite with a broken string, being violently thrown away by the sudden and enormous force.
The moment the Sword Demon crashed heavily to the ground, he felt a strong, sweet, metallic taste rise in his throat, as if a million ants were gnawing at him.
Finally, he could no longer hold back, and with a "pfft," a mouthful of bright red blood gushed out of his mouth like a fountain.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" The Sword Demon's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief, completely ignoring his severe injuries, as he muttered to himself.
"How...how could he be completely unharmed? I clearly attacked him with all my might! What happened?"
Lady Ao, who was standing to the side, witnessed this scene and was instantly dumbfounded and speechless.
You see, she had personally witnessed Wang Yang drink a large amount of alcohol. Based on this, she was absolutely certain that Wang Yang, like everyone else, had been poisoned.
However, seeing that Wang Yang was completely unharmed and showed no signs of poisoning at all was a huge surprise to her.
Just as Madam Ao and the Sword Demon were still in shock and had not yet recovered, Wang Yang slowly stood up from his seat. His sharp eyes, like two bolts of lightning, swept back and forth between the two of them.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Yang said in an unusually calm yet somewhat sarcastic tone, "Gentlemen, there's something I might have forgotten to tell you. This alliance leader is naturally immune to all poisons."
At this point, Wang Yang paused slightly, then raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a disdainful smile, and continued, "The so-called muscle-weakening poison you just used is completely useless to me; it has absolutely no effect."
After hearing Wang Yang's words, both the Sword Demon and Madam Ao were deeply shaken, as if a storm had been raging within them.
Especially for the Sword Demon, when he realized that his plan to poison him had completely failed, an indescribable fear welled up in his heart.
Because he knew very well that, given Wang Yang's personality, he would never let them off easily.
Thinking of this, the Sword Demon dared not hesitate any longer. He quickly channeled his inner strength into his feet, lightly touched the ground, turned around, and prepared to flee.
After all, at this critical moment of life and death, he knew very well that if he continued to stay here, death would probably be the only thing waiting for him!
"Trying to escape? Do you think you can escape?" Wang Yang's lips curled up slightly, revealing a contemptuous sneer.
The sword demon staggered, looking panicked, clearly feeling fear and preparing to turn and flee.
However, at that moment, Wang Yang's figure flickered and vanished from his original spot. In the blink of an eye, he appeared before the Sword Demon like a ghost.
"Huh?" The Sword Demon suddenly looked up and saw Wang Yang appear before him like a ghost, and he was shocked. His pupils contracted sharply, and his face was full of fear and panic.
"Alliance Leader Wang, please let me explain..." the Sword Demon stammered, but his words were cut short.
Wang Yang didn't give him a chance to continue speaking. His right hand shot out like lightning and grabbed the sword demon's neck with perfect precision.
The sword demon was startled and instinctively tried to struggle and resist.
But to his despair, he felt as if his entire body was tightly bound by a powerful and invisible force, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not move his body at all.
Wang Yang stared coldly at the Sword Demon, his eyes icy and devoid of any emotion.
He spoke slowly, his voice calm yet carrying an endless chill: "I told you, since you dared to come here, it's tantamount to courting death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yang suddenly exerted force on his hand.
With a snap, Wang Yang broke the Sword Demon's neck on the spot.
Then, Wang Yang threw the Sword Demon's corpse on the ground like a dead dog.
After witnessing this breathtaking scene, Madam Ao, who was standing to the side, began to tremble uncontrollably, her body swaying precariously like a candle flickering in the wind.
Her once calm eyes were now filled with fear and panic; there was no trace of her composure left.
"Madam Ao, you have failed in your duty to raise your son, allowing him to act so recklessly and domineeringly outside!" Wang Yang stared intently at Madam Ao, his words filled with undisguised reproach and condemnation.
"Hmph, even if I, the leader of this alliance, don't take his life today, with his arrogant and domineering nature, he will bring about his own demise sooner or later!" Wang Yang snorted coldly and continued.
Upon hearing Wang Yang's words, Ao Furen snapped out of her daze and recovered from her extreme shock.
However, she had already lost her mind, her heart filled only with endless resentment and anger towards Wang Yang. She glared at him through gritted teeth, her anger barely contained, and shouted, "Wang Yang! Don't you dare spout nonsense and make baseless accusations against me!"
"Stop pretending to lecture me!" Madam Ao roared hysterically. "Today you killed my son, and I will make you pay for this blood debt tenfold!"
However, before Madam Ao could finish speaking, Wang Yang suddenly appeared in front of her in a flash. Immediately afterward, a sharp "slap" rang out, and a resounding slap landed hard on Madam Ao's face.
The slap was so powerful that it sent Madam Ao spinning around on the spot. When her head finally returned to its original position, she was already lifeless, her eyes wide open, almost bulging out, filled with terror and despair.
After a brief stalemate, Madam Ao's lifeless body, like a puppet with its strings cut, fell heavily to the ground with a muffled thud, raising a cloud of dust.
The remaining members of the Sword Worship Manor were terrified by the horrifying scene before them, their faces turning deathly pale and their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
They stared at each other, their gazes filled with fear and tension. No one dared to utter the slightest sound, as if even the softest breath would invite deadly danger.
Everyone's heart was in their throat, fearing that they might accidentally die like Madam Ao at Wang Yang's hands, becoming yet another innocent victim.
In that instant, the entire scene seemed to be shrouded in an invisible pressure, falling into a deathly silence.
Time seemed to freeze, and even the air felt unusually heavy. The sound of everyone's heartbeats could be clearly heard, their rapid and frantic rhythm like the drumbeats of impending death.
After a brief pause, these people could no longer bear the suffocating atmosphere.
They scattered and fled like frightened birds, scrambling to escape this horrible place—the inn.
Some people even fell to the ground due to excessive panic, but they ignored their injuries and quickly got up to continue running.
Wang Yang paid no attention to the disarray of these people as they fled. He had no intention of wiping out everyone from the Sword Worship Manor, after all, he had already achieved his goal.
Moreover, he knew very well that with the successive deaths of the Sword Demon and Lady Ao, it was almost impossible for the Sword Worship Manor to regain its former glory and prosperity.
Then, Wang Yang turned and walked towards Zhou Botong and the others. He lightly raised his hands, and several streams of true energy shot out from his fingertips, accurately entering the bodies of Zhou Botong and the others.
Before long, Zhou Botong and the others' originally pale faces gradually regained their rosy color, and the toxins in their bodies also dissipated.
"Alliance Leader, we have all been poisoned, so why are you unharmed?" Duan Lang stared wide-eyed at Wang Yang, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Wang Yang smiled slightly and asked calmly, "What? Didn't you hear me say that I have a constitution that makes me immune to all poisons?"
Duan Lang was stunned by Wang Yang's question.
He opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't find the right words to respond.
Next, Wang Yang took out a small, exquisite jade bottle from his pocket, gently uncorked it, and a strange fragrance instantly filled the air.
He carefully poured out a few drops of the crystal-clear liquid and dripped them into the mouths of the people. Before long, those who had been poisoned and collapsed, their faces pale, sat up with groans, and their faces gradually regained color.
Mingyue stood aside, watching this scene unfold, and a wave of panic washed over her.
She originally planned to take this opportunity to kill Wang Yang with the poison she had prepared in advance. In this way, she could both complete the task assigned to her by Wushuang City and avenge her previous humiliation.
However, to her utter surprise, Wang Yang showed no reaction to this deadly poison, as if he were immune to all poisons!
At this moment, Mingyue finally realized why Wang Yang's expression had seemed so strange when she poured him wine earlier.
Could it be that he had already sensed the poison in the wine and mistakenly believed that she was the one who poisoned it? At this thought, Mingyue's mind went into a complete mess, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
She quickly turned her head, her gaze fixed on Wang Yang, her hands unconsciously clenching the hem of her clothes, her lips trembling as if she wanted to explain to Wang Yang that she hadn't done any of this.
However, just as Mingyue was about to speak, Wang Yang smiled faintly and said loudly, "Everyone, it's getting late. You should all go back to your rooms and rest!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yang stood up without hesitation or lingering and strode upstairs.
As he approached the stairwell, he suddenly stopped, as if he had remembered something important.
Then, he slowly turned his head, looked directly at Mingyue, and said again, "Mingyue, tonight you will give this leader a massage!"
Upon hearing this, Mingyue was startled and instantly lost her composure. She stood there blankly, as if frozen in place, completely unsure of how to deal with the situation.
Her beautiful face was slightly flushed with nervousness, and her large eyes were filled with panic and helplessness.
