Lu Yuan did not take the Yu family's sedan chair, but walked to the Yu family's house. From a distance, he saw Yu Jiankang sitting in front of the Yu family's door.

The moment the two looked at each other, Lu Yuan suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, as if there was a poisonous snake coiled around him, spitting out red seeds from behind his neck.

Lu Yuan stopped abruptly, his face looking solemn as never before.

He was very sure that Yu Jiankang didn't know any martial arts.

But his intuition told him that this person was definitely the most dangerous person he had encountered since leaving Beiliang!

Looking at the row of lanterns, they look like a row of yellowed teeth, and the open door of the Yu family looks like a mouth that is open to the limit.

And Yu Jiankang, who was covered in red fox fur, was the red tongue licking his lips, greedily trying to roll up Lu Yuan and put it into his mouth.

Lu Yuan used the Beiming Divine Art slightly, and regained his clarity in an instant. Looking at the surrounding scenery, there was no change, as if everything was his illusion.

"It's interesting." Lu Yuan whispered to himself.

The characters who can stand firm in Liyang are not as simple as they appear on the surface.

Yu Jiankang let out a long breath, and his face became a little older.

When he was young, he learned the secret technique of deceiving the mind from an ancient book, and he has never failed in it for decades.

For him to become an evergreen tree in Liyang's officialdom, apart from his own abilities, more than half of the credit must fall on this secret technique.

But today he actually missed it!

He had only seen such a firm mind in a few important ministers of the current dynasty.

It is really not easy for someone to be targeted by both the Werecat and Yuan Benxi at the same time!

Although he easily resolved Yu Jiankang's temptation, Lu Yuan also put away his contempt, walked to Yu Jiankang calmly, and said in a deep voice: "Are you looking for me?"

Xu Xin and Yuan Sheng's expressions changed at the same time, and when they were about to speak, Yu Jiankang raised his hand to stop them.

"I have long admired Mr. Lu's name. Please forgive me for my inconvenience and my inability to get up to greet our distinguished guests."

Yu Jiankang looked as usual, as if he didn't hear the rudeness in Lu Yuan's tone at all.

"No need? Why do you want to ask me for so much trouble?" Lu Yuan spoke very rudely, but his eyes were extremely alert.

Yu Jiankang's ability to keep his composure disrupted his plan.

He came here today to establish his authority and get out of trouble.

But Yu Jiankang's attitude of letting others take advantage of him only made him feel more and more uneasy.

He had a hunch that taking action now would definitely backfire!

"I am weak and can't bear the cold. I would like to invite Mr. Lu to come into the house for a chat."

Yu Jiankang just waved slightly, and the people behind him silently stepped aside to make way for a person-wide passage.

"No need, I still have something to do. If you have anything to say, just say it." Lu Yuan ignored the cold looks from everyone and said calmly: "Shangzhu Kingdom has paid such a high price, so you don't just come to me to gossip, right?"

"That's all, I'll do as you please today." Yu Jiankang smiled and said, "I invite you here today because I want Mr. Lu to form a good relationship with my four Jiangnan families."

Hearing this unabashed invitation, Lu Yuan was a little surprised, "Shouldn't there be a fight to the death between you and me?

Or is it that the one who died was not a member of your Yu family? "

Lu Yuan had long known from Xu Fengnian who he killed, so he was even more surprised as to why Yu Jiankang showed kindness to him.

Xu Huipu, who was standing behind Lu Yuan, was stunned. She didn't even need to raise her head to imagine how terrifying Yu Jiankang's face looked now.

Xu Xin and Yuan Sheng also took a step back in unison and looked at Lu Yuan with a mixture of shock and anger mixed with admiration.

This Lu Yuan, does he really not know how to write the word "death"?

What everyone didn't expect was that Yu Jiankang's face only twitched slightly, and then he said softly and calmly: "I haven't thanked Mr. Lu for getting rid of the black sheep of our Yu family.

Inviting Mr. Lu to come today is actually a way of saying thank you. "

Lu Yuan's face was expressionless, and a surge of true energy suddenly burst out from his body.

The lantern shook unsteadily, the bluestone on the ground shattered, and no one around Lu Yuan could stand except for Yu Jiankang, who was barely leaning on the chair.

"It's better not to say anything that hides a knife behind your smile." Lu Yuan said in a deep voice, "You really want to kill me, don't you?"

Lu Yuan knew very well that when it came to tactics, even if he had been a man for two lifetimes, he could not compare to these old foxes who had been immersed in conspiracies all their lives.

So his best way is to use his strengths and avoid weaknesses.

Instead of testing each other with words, why not get straight to the point!

Be upright and push forward all the way.

Only the weak need conspiracy to defeat the strong, while the strong only use conspiracy.

Regardless of all its tricks, they will all disappear in the sunshine!

"Now you are full of murderous intent." Yu Jiankang said calmly.

"If I wanted to kill you, you would already be dead."

"Then why don't you take action?" Yu Jiankang's eyes were like deep pools, and he couldn't see any fluctuations. "What are you afraid of?"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan unconsciously shed a drop of sweat from his forehead.

The helpless old man in front of him actually gave him a greater sense of oppression than Cao Changqing!

"Everyone from the four Yangzhou families who stayed in Jiangnan is here, from infants to octogenarians." Yu Jiankang pointed at himself and smiled, his voice was very calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter. "You can kill as much as you want if you want

I would like to take the first step and ask Mr. Lu to grant me death.

please. "

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yuan's aura subsided, but the pressure became heavier and heavier, like the sea before a storm, so oppressive that it made people breathless.

But there was no trace of fear on Yu Jiankang's face, and Lu Yuan could even see a trace of undisguised sarcasm in his eyes.

"Do you think I don't dare?" Lu Yuan said softly.

"I have never made a mistake in my life." Yu Jiankang laughed and said, "Lu Yuan, if you were as ruthless as you said, you would have destroyed my Yu family long before Yan'er provoked you. The door is full! Why did you wait until this time?

Today, I am offering the lives of the four clansmen as an apology, and asking Mr. Lu to turn our hostility into friendship. I wonder if Mr. Lu will accept it? ! "

"What if I don't accept it?" As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lu Yuan had already guessed the answer.

"Then I will die until Mr. Lu agrees!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dozen people among the disciples in the courtyard suddenly took out daggers from their waists and put them on the necks of the people in front of them.

Even next to Xu Xin and Yuan Sheng, two tall and burly warriors appeared, their gray eyes fixed on their necks, waiting for Yu Jiankang's order.

The disciples in the courtyard finally realized what had happened. They cried and howled loudly for a while, but the sharp steel knife was beside them, and no one dared to run away.

This is Yu Jiankang's crazy plan.

Since they can't be offended, let's use the descendants of the four families to gain a chance for the family's future.

Lu Yuan agreed. Today, these collateral descendants will also die. Not only can he tie Lu Yuan to the carriage of the four Jiangnan families, but he can also give an explanation to Han Shengxuan. After that, Yuan Benxi's promise can be used to strengthen the four tribes in Yangzhou.

If Lu Yuan didn't agree, he would take these disciples and die here so that he could give Yuan Benxi an explanation and avoid stumbling upon Lu Baijie in the future.

As for revenge afterwards... Yu Jiankang understood one thing best in his life of ups and downs in the officialdom.
