Chapter 1067 - 1067 1027 The Villain Escapes

1067: Chapter 1027: The Villain Escapes 1067: Chapter 1027: The Villain Escapes Lu Chuan just walked out of Lu Manor when someone rushed towards him and collided with him.

He quickly stepped back two steps, looked up at Lu Chuan, and immediately showed a surprised expression.

“Young Master Lu, I’ve met you here!”

“Why are you in such a hurry?

And who are you?”

Lu Chuan looked at him curiously.

“It’s normal that you don’t know me; I am a servant from the Su Residence, sent to find you.

I heard that you arrived at Lu Manor early in the morning, so I hurried over.”

Dongfang Cheng looked at Lu Chuan and asked, “This guy seems very anxious.

Must be something big, right?”

Lu Chuan asked, “What is it that you want to see me about?”

“It’s a big issue!

There’s trouble!”

“I can’t talk here; follow me to the Su Residence, and we can discuss it slowly.”

After a glance at Dongfang Cheng, Lu Chuan said, “Let’s go and see.”

Dongfang Cheng shrugged his shoulders, “Then, let’s just go and see.”

The three of them mounted their horses and quickly rode to the Su Family Mansion.

At that time, the Su Residence seemed to be in some kind of turmoil, the servants hurriedly went about their tasks, and no one leisurely lingered in the courtyard.

“Please follow me to meet our Family Head.”

The servant led Lu Chuan to the Council Hall.

Inside the Council Hall, Su Jingqian sat in a chair with a sullen face and furrowed brows.

Adjacent to him was the caretaker, reporting something with several documents in hand.

“We’ve finished searching, but we haven’t found him.”

“What should we do next?”

“Keep searching!” Su Jingqian shouted angrily.

The caretaker nodded again and again and then turned to leave.

Seeing Lu Chuan and his party arriving, the caretaker greeted them with a smile.

“Our distinguished guests have arrived; our Family Head wants to see you, thank you for your trouble.”

As Lu Chuan approached, he looked at Su Jingqian and asked, “What’s the matter that you look so gloomy?

Has your Su family encountered any danger?”

Su Jingqian quickly stood up, walked up to Lu Chuan, grabbed his wrist with a grave expression.

“Young Master Lu, it’s terrible news!”

“That…

that Wan Qingyuan, he escaped!”

After saying this, Su Jingqian sighed painfully.

Lu Chuan shook off his hand and stared at him, “What?

You let that guy escape?

How did it happen?

Tell me the truth!”

Lu Chuan was very surprised; he could see that the Su family had encountered a big issue, but he did not expect it to be of this nature.

Even a criminal couldn’t be guarded properly, how incompetent is this Su family?

“Young Master Lu, it really isn’t due to our negligence; we locked that bastard in the dungeon.

The dungeon is air-tight with only one narrow passage, the only route, as long as it’s strictly guarded, not even a fly could escape!”

“But despite this, that guy still escaped!”

Su Jingqian took a deep breath, “Young Master Lu, please don’t be angry, this matter is very unusual, I need to carefully explain it to you.”

“Are Su Yang and Su Changyue hurt?”

Su Jingqian nodded continuously, “Of course they are not hurt.”

“Alright, tell me the details.”

Lu Chuan pulled over a chair and sat down, Dongfang Cheng sat beside him, his face contemplative, also puzzled as to how that guy could have escaped.

Su Jingqian stood before Lu Chuan and seriously said, “This is what happened.”

“Last night, my son was interrogating that bastard in the dungeon, using many tortures, you might not know, how miserable that guy was made to be.”

“His body barely had any intact skin, the whole cell was covered in bloodstains, and the air was filled with the smell of blood, needing the guards to continuously fan to expel the stench.”

“By midnight, Su Yang was tired and temporarily left to rest.”

“But afterward, the situation occurred.”

Dongfang Cheng interrupted him, asking, “You said his body barely had any good flesh, to what extent was he injured?”

“Specifically, it was almost down to the skeleton.”

Dongfang Cheng couldn’t help but swallow his saliva, “That’s indeed brutal; both your son and that Wan Qingyuan are ruthless enough.”

Su Jingqian sighed helplessly, “But this morning, we discovered that there was no one in the cell, not a single person.”

“Wan Qingyuan that bastard broke free from the chains and escaped from there.”

Su Jingqian held his head with both hands, scratching his scalp distressingly, “I still can’t understand, why did this happen!

Why did such a thing happen, how could that bastard escape from there!”

“I can’t accept it!

That bastard has escaped, and it’s now impossible to catch him again!”

He walked quickly up to Lu Chuan, pleading, “Young Master Lu, please, you must help.

If you encounter that bastard, you must catch him!”

Lu Chuan nodded reluctantly, “I will, and that bastard won’t likely let me go either.”

Dongfang Cheng said irritably, “Su Family Patriarch, the way you handled this, is really unrighteous.

Isn’t this just putting us in danger too?”

“Young Master Dongfang, Young Master Lu, we did not want this to happen either, but it happened, what can I do?”

He sighed, sat down on a chair beside him, his face showing his dejection, he even lacked the energy to manage his clan.

“I will keep an eye on this matter, since that bastard has escaped, I think he might not completely leave this place.”

“Maybe he’s arranging the next attack in secret, so be careful these days.”

Su Jingqian nodded weakly, “Why exactly?

His body was in such a state, yet he still had the ability to move, I can’t accept it, nor can I believe it!”

Lu Chuan walked forward, patted his shoulder, “Demonic Cultivators are like that, they have many tricks and extraordinary abilities, such accidents are beyond our control.”

“Alright, continue with your tasks; if there’s anything else, let me know.”

Su Jingqian stood up, nodding helplessly.

Lu Chuan suddenly thought of something and asked, “I want to ask about someone, do you know a person named Wan Qingxue?”

“Wan Qingxue?

Is that the one…

who came from Penglai Immortal Domain?”

“Of course, I know her.

After she came to our Su Residence, she assigned us a task to get something from you, we agreed since her offer was very attractive, only later we realized the target was you…”

He said helplessly.

“And then, where is that person now?”

“We haven’t seen her for a long time; I don’t know where she is now.

Her whereabouts are very mysterious; our Su family doesn’t have the right to inquire.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Alright, that’s it then.

If you see any traces of Wan Qingyuan, let me know.”

“Sure, we definitely will.”
