When Lu Yang discovered that Shangguan Yan was helping Wen Tairan last night and wanted to charm them, Lu Yang originally wanted to leave Shangguan Yan and take Xia Linglan to Black Dragon Mountain alone. But in the morning, he heard about Shangguan Yan and Wen Tairan.
After the conversation, Lu Yang changed his mind.
Lu Yang heard from the conversation between the two that Shangguan Yan actually did not want to harm them.
Even in the face of repeated pressure from her senior brother, Shangguan Yan still tried her best to persuade Wen Tairan to give up attacking Lu Yang and the others.
This made Lu Yang know that Shangguan Yan was not actually an ungrateful white-eyed wolf, she was just forced by Wen Tairan!
After listening to the conversation between the two, Lu Yang had already seen that Wen Tairan was not only putting pressure on Shangguan Yan, he was also deceiving Shangguan Yan's feelings.
Although Lu Yang didn't know that Wen Tairan had a fiancée, he could tell from Wen Tairan's eyes that Wen Tairan had no intention of marrying Shangguan Yan.
So Lu Yang decided to help Shangguan Yan recognize Wen Tairan's true face as soon as possible so that Shangguan Yan would no longer be deceived by Wen Tairan.
Although Lu Yang had no intention of accepting Shangguan Yan, he still had a good impression of Shangguan Yan.
Shangguan Yan is cute and beautiful, has a kind and lively personality, and is a rare good girl.
Naturally, Lu Yang couldn't bear to see a good girl like Shangguan Yan being deceived by a hypocrite like Wen Tairan and using her as a tool.
Moreover, if Lu Yang can help Shangguan Yan recognize the hypocrisy of her senior brother so that she will no longer be deceived and used by Wen Tairan, then Lu Yang can make Shangguan Yan help him sincerely.
Lu Yang also had a reliable guide.
From this point of view, when Lu Yang helped Shangguan Yan, he was actually helping himself.
Lu Yang followed Shangguan Yan to the southwest dense forest. Shangguan Yan took Lu Yang and pretended to be looking for spiritual herbs, all the way to the cave designated by Wen Tairan.
"Senior Brother Lu, there is a cave here. Let's go in and have a look?"
"I heard that some caves contain treasures left by masters from previous lives."
Lu Yang looked at Shangguan Yan.
"Do you really believe that there is a treasure hidden in this?"
Shangguan Yan felt guilty for a while when Lu Yang saw her, but she immediately said: "I'm here anyway, there's nothing to lose if I go in and take a look. Senior Brother Lu, you don't dare, right?"
Shangguan Yan deliberately used the method of provoking generals again.
Lu Yang smiled.
"It's just a cave, not a grove! You're not afraid of a girl, so why should I be?"
When Shangguan Yan heard Lu Yang talk about going into the woods, she couldn't help but think of the embarrassing scene when Lu Yang saw her in the woods last time. Shangguan Yan blushed.
In order to cover up his embarrassment, Shangguan Yan quickly got into the cave first.
Lu Yang followed Shangguan Yan and also entered the cave.
This cave is not big, only as high as one person.
Although Lu Yang did not visit the cave in advance, he secretly sent a small flying insect to follow Wen Tairan to investigate.
After the little flying insect was injected with spiritual power by Lu Yang, it was no different from Lu Yang's eyes and ears when he came to check it in person.
Therefore, Lu Yang already knew very well what Wen Tairan had done in the cave.
At this time, Wen Tairan was hiding in a dense forest not far from the cave entrance. Seeing Lu Yang following Shangguan Yan into the cave, Wen Tairan was secretly happy.
"Boy, in a little while, all your treasures will belong to me!"
In the cave, Shangguan Yan saw a willow stick stuck on a stone wall, and Shangguan Yan knew that this was the place where her elder brother put incense.
Wen Tairan used a colorless and odorless incense this time. If there was no label, even Shangguan Yan would not know where her senior brother put the incense.
Shangguan Yan stopped immediately when she saw Willow Tiao. Because she had taken the antidote in advance, she didn't have to worry about being stunned.
"Senior Brother Lu, come and take a look. I feel like something is buried down here."
Shangguan Yan pointed to a piece of new soil that had obviously been dug under the stone wall and said to Lu Yang.
Lu Yang stepped forward.
"There seems to be something."
Lu Yang said, took out a military shovel and started digging.
Outside the forest, Wen Tairan was overjoyed when he saw Lu Yang starting to dig the soil. He had sprinkled another colorless and odorless poison into the soil. Lu Yang would be poisoned as soon as he dug the soil.
When the time comes, even if Lu Yang can resist the incense, he will definitely be poisoned by the poison in the soil and lose his power.
In the cave, Lu Yang only dug a few shovels of soil before he fainted and fell to the side.
When Shangguan Yan saw Lu Yang being fascinated, her face was full of guilt.
"I'm sorry, Senior Brother Lu. I really can't help it. After we lure Lin Tong into a trap and kill him, and avenge Senior Brother Wu and the others, I will give you the antidote immediately.
I hope you won’t blame me, Senior Brother Lu!”
Shangguan Yan was still apologizing to Lu Yang, who was lying on the ground, when she saw her senior brother Wen Tairan rushing in with excitement on his face.
When Wen Tairan saw Lu Yang lying on the ground, a ferocious smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Lu Yang, you finally fell into my hands!"
With that said, Wen Tairan drew out his long sword and was about to cut off Lu Yang's hand tendons and hamstrings in order to turn Lu Yang into a cripple.
In this way, he no longer has to worry that Lu Yang will deal with him when he wakes up.
Shangguan Yan couldn't help but change her face when she saw her senior brother draw out his long sword, and quickly stopped in front of Lu Yang.
"Elder brother, what are you going to do?"
Wen Tairan had finished using Shangguan Yan at this time, and he stopped pretending.
"Xiaoyan, get out of the way. I'm going to take advantage of Lu Yang's poisoning and fainting, break his limbs, and destroy him. Then he will no longer have the power to resist, and he will have no choice but to be at our mercy!"
Shangguan Yan's expression changed drastically, and he defended himself in front of Lu Yang.
"No, absolutely not!"
"Elder brother, didn't you promise me that you would never hurt Lu Yang?"
Wen Tairan frowned.
"Little junior sister, are you stupid?"
"Since we have poisoned Lu Yang, we are already mortal enemies with him. If I don't destroy him, will we still have a way to survive when he wakes up?"
Shangguan Yan still blocked Lu Yang.
"That won't work either!"
"Elder brother, you personally promised that you would not harm a single hair on Lu Yang! How can you break your promise?"
Seeing that Shangguan Yan still refused to let go, Wen Tairan had lost patience with her. Wen Tairan sneered.
"Shangguan Yan, you are really stupid! Do you believe this?"
"To tell you the truth! I only said that deliberately to trick you into helping me poison Lu Yang."
When Wen Tairan said this, his face darkened.
"I'm telling you, you'd better get out of my way quickly. Otherwise, don't blame me for not missing our friendship!"
Shangguan Yan's face was full of disappointment at this time.
Shangguan Yan never expected that the senior brother she had always trusted and admired would be such a despicable person.
Shangguan Yan looked at Wen Tairan.
"So, you also lied to me when you promised to marry me once things were done?"
Wen Tairan chuckled.
"Shangguan Yan, I admit that you are very beautiful. If you are willing to go to bed with me and be my lover peacefully, I will not refuse.
But it is impossible for me to give up my engagement with Tianshu Palace and marry you!
You are just an ordinary third-generation disciple of our Tianji Palace. My fiancée Liu Qian is the daughter of the master of Tianshu Palace!
Do you think I might give up marrying the daughter of the Palace Master of Tianshu Palace for you?"
After Shangguan Yan heard Wen Tairan's words, even the last glimmer of hope in her heart was shattered.
Wen Tairan had already taken two steps forward.
"Shangguan Yan, there is no way you can stop me. I advise you to be wise and get out of the way quickly. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
