Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1039 - 1039 999 Infiltration

1039: Chapter 999: Infiltration 1039: Chapter 999: Infiltration Lu Chuan left the island, sat in a wooden boat on the shore, and began to return to the mainland.

After reaching the mainland, Lu Chuan didn’t go to the dock; he stopped his wooden boat in a deserted area, went ashore, and left.

He couldn’t expose his whereabouts now, so avoiding crowds as much as possible was the best option.

After observing from afar and seeing that none of the Ming family’s people were at the dock, Lu Chuan quietly went there, mounted a horse, and left the place.

By the time he returned to Cloud Sea City, it was already evening.

Back in the city, he made his way to the Yu Family Manor.

At this moment, the Yu Residence seemed to be under martial law, with its gates tightly closed and not a single person at the entrance.

Even passersby dared not walk past it.

Lu Chuan knocked on the door, and someone quietly opened a crack, glanced at Lu Chuan, and then let him in.

In the courtyard, Lu Chuan found Yu Qiming and explained the situation to him.

“That’s great, Yuan Huan has actually joined our camp, which means our chances of winning are even better!”

“That’s great; I was just guessing at various outcomes, such as you killing Yuan Huan, or killing someone from the Ming family, or killing everyone involved.”

“I didn’t expect that an agreement would be reached, and cooperation would begin!”

“With that, the situation should improve.”

“Now, the Ming family has already begun to set up traps; someone in their family is skilled at this, so they don’t need to seek outside help.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, then asked, “Who in their family is setting up the traps?”

“The third son, Ming Zongkai, with his master.

The two of them have gone to Heaven Bestowment Martial Arts Hall.”

At that moment, Jyang Ran’s figure approached.

“Lu Chuan, you’re back.

How did it go?”

“Everything went well.”

“Next, as long as we eliminate the people setting up the traps, every advantage the Ming family has will collapse!”

Jyang Ran, hands on her hips and looking proud, turned to Lu Chuan.

“I’ve thoroughly investigated; Ming Zongkai and his master are there, setting traps in the Heaven Bestowment Martial Arts Hall, they’ve even moved in.”

“So, you see?”

Lu Chuan frowned slightly, “Your idea is to go there and directly kill them?”

“Of course, it’s an assassination.

We sneak in and kill the two of them, and their plan falls apart!”

“In that case, the advantage will be on our side!”

Lu Chuan pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded, “No problem, we start the assassination operation tonight.”

“Great!

It’s still early; let’s have dinner first.”

Afterward, they all had dinner together.

As night fell, Jyang Ran led the way out of the Yu Family Mansion, taking Lu Chuan to start their mission.

Jyang Ran had scouted the territory for a day and had a clear understanding of the surroundings of the Heaven Bestowment Martial Arts Hall.

“This is the main gate of the martial arts hall, it’s being strictly guarded, we won’t be able to get in.

We have to find another way.”

“Come with me this way.”

They arrived at one side of the surrounding wall, where there was a large tree, its trunk stretched out toward the wall; while it wasn’t leaning against the wall, it was close enough to jump over.

“Climb the tree, follow the trunk up to the wall, but be careful—the yard is full of guards.

We need to follow the wall for a while, then jump down into the corner where the junk is piled, and then!”

“We will have successfully sneaked in!

I’ve already tried it once before, it’s not a problem!”

Jyang Ran looked at Lu Chuan with a smug expression.

“Not bad, but I want to scout the inside situation first before we proceed.”

“Why do we need more scouting?

Just go in!”

Jyang Ran pointed again at the wall.

“I have ways to scout from outside, too.

You wait here and keep an eye on my surroundings.”

Lu Chuan immediately sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes to concentrate.

Jyang Ran curiously watched Lu Chuan, scratching her head in confusion.

Suddenly, she saw, to her amazement, a soul body emerging from Lu Chuan’s physical form.

“Ah!!”

She opened her mouth wide.

“Shh!”

“You wait here for a moment, once I come out, it will be fine.”

“Okay…”

Jyang Ran obediently nodded.

Immediately, Lu Chuan’s soul body passed through the wall and entered the martial arts hall.

Around the central dueling arena were two rows of corridors where people could sit and watch.

Now, Lu Chuan could see two figures busily at work on the corridor.

They seemed to have carved a groove into one of the pillars and placed some intricate launching mechanisms inside.

Afterward, they covered it with thinly carved wood planks and disguised it so that it appeared flawless.

Once the fight started, they would be able to use silk wire to remotely control these traps and strike at Lu Chuan.

Seeing this, Lu Chuan couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.

Setting up such complicated measures for a duel was nothing but a joke in their eyes, as the concept of fairness was entirely laughable to them.

This Ming Baixuan was also a shameless person who would stop at nothing, ready to use all means necessary to win the duel.

Lu Chuan turned to look at the bottom of the surrounding wall and quickly found a blind spot; a corner where rotten wood was piled.

This spot was unguarded, but difficult to climb over.

He would need to walk along the wall to there, then drop down.

After assessing the surroundings, Lu Chuan realized that if he infiltrated the area, he had to get close to Ming Zongkai as quickly as possible, ideally being discovered only when within striking distance.

After observing the environment, Lu Chuan turned and left the place.

Lu Chuan slowly opened his eyes and saw Jyang Ran’s eyes closely peering at him, staring curiously at Lu Chuan.

“Hey!!”

Lu Chuan recoiled in surprise.

“What are you doing?”

“I’m just curious, did you take care of it?”

“Yes, I did.

Follow me.

Once we go in there, we can’t avoid being detected by the guards; we can only get as close to Ming Zongkai as possible and then eliminate him swiftly and decisively.”

“Alright, no problem.

There are too many guards in there; it’s unrealistic to kill Ming Zongkai without being detected.”

Lu Chuan and Jyang Ran hopped lightly and landed on a tree trunk.

Then, they moved along the tree trunk to the wall, and from there, to the predetermined corner.

After landing quietly, Lu Chuan began to walk toward Ming Zongkai’s location.

Both of them bent halfway, trying their best not to make any noise.

Besides Ming Zongkai’s master, there were also two personal guards.

If Lu Chuan decided to make a move, he would need to instantly kill four people and prevent them from having a chance to escape, a true test of Lu Chuan’s speed.

With this thought, Lu Chuan’s expression became grave.

There absolutely could be no mistakes in this assassination!

As Lu Chuan gradually closed in, he raised his hand to draw the Soul Terminating Sword.

And Jyang Ran also pulled out her folding fan.

“You lead the attack.

When you say ‘go’, I’ll move.”

Jyang Ran looked at Lu Chuan.

“Go now!”

Lu Chuan drew out the Soul Terminating Sword and immediately activated the Supreme Phantom Dodge martial arts skill.

Swish!!!

In an instant, Lu Chuan shot forward, with a speed that gave no room for reaction, arriving in front of Ming Zongkai.
