Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1105 - 1105 1065 Seeing Through the Ruse

1105: Chapter 1065: Seeing Through the Ruse 1105: Chapter 1065: Seeing Through the Ruse Lu Chuan brought Wan Qingxue back to the City Lord’s Mansion.

In the front courtyard of the City Lord’s Mansion, people had begun to clean up the ruins.

Huang Tiankang, upon seeing Lu Chuan’s return, hastened to meet him.

Seeing Wan Qingxue standing next to him sparked anger in his heart, and he drew the dagger at his waist, ready to slash at her.

“You beast, I’ll kill you!”

He roared as he swung the dagger in his hand.

But Lu Chuan raised his hand to stop him.

“Hold on, she still has use to me.”

“Lu Chuan, you must kill her!

Don’t let her go!”

Huang Tiankang said angrily.

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Don’t worry, I won’t let her go.

You go handle the affairs inside the mansion, I will interrogate her.”

“Alright, I’ll go handle some things first, I’ll leave the rest to you.

I trust you to kill her and make her pay with her life!”

Lu Chuan patted his shoulder, speaking with a heavy tone, “I know how hurt you are inside.

Rest assured, I won’t spare her.”

Huang Tiankang nodded slightly and then turned away to leave.

Lu Chuan turned to look at Wan Qingxue and said, “Come with me.”

Lu Chuan brought her in front of Jyang Ran and Yu Qiming.

Upon seeing her, they too wore serious expressions, their eyes staring at her fiercely.

“So we’ve finally caught you.

I knew you would definitely be able to capture him.”

Following that, Jyang Ran picked up the severed head of Wan Qing Yuan from the ground, “Take a good look, Wan Qingxue has been captured.

Neither of you two can escape.

You’ll all die here today.

Understand?”

Wan Qing Yuan’s eyes, slightly open, saw Wan Qingxue and showed a face full of sorrow.

Having been on the brink of death twice, even with his strong vitality, he was now at his limit, even opening his eyes was becoming incredibly difficult.

At this moment, for Wan Qing Yuan, he had completely plunged into despair.

This time, there was no chance for either of them to escape from here; it was almost certainly a death sentence.

Lu Chuan looked at Wan Qingxue and said, “Now, I’m going to get some answers out of you.”

“What do you want to ask?” Wan Qingxue looked up at Lu Chuan.

“Firstly, you came from the Penglai Immortal Domain, right?”

Wan Qingxue shook her head slightly, “I’ve been to the Penglai Immortal Domain, but I didn’t come from there, I am from the Blood Wail Sect.”

“Good, I want to know, do you know the Sect Master of the Blood Wail Sect?”

“I don’t know him,” Wan Qingxue said decisively.

“Alright then, Wan Qing Yuan told me that someone powerful has been backing you up, providing you with help.

I want to know, who is that person?”

Wan Qingxue closed her eyes, impatiently saying, “Stop asking, it’s pointless.

I won’t tell you.”

“So I can kill you right now, can I?”

Wan Qingxue nodded slightly, “Go ahead, I don’t expect you to spare me.

So, make it quick.

If you’re not too troubled, you could use some methods to try to force me to talk.

However, I advise you not to waste your time.”

Lu Chuan, understanding her implication, nodded in agreement.

“Alright, I understand.

In that case, I’ll grant you a swift death and take your head to Huang Tiankang.”

Wan Qingxue trembled, still somewhat shaken by these words.

Those who can face death calmly are not ordinary individuals.

But clearly, Wan Qingxue was not one of those people.

And Wan Qing Yuan, in this moment, had already completely lost the will to live, left only with despair.

Lu Chuan looked at Yu Qiming, “Finish off Wan Qing Yuan first.

This guy should have been dead a long time ago!”

Yu Qiming nodded, then gripped the longsword in his hand and pierced through Wan Qing Yuan’s skull.

Blood spattered on the ground, weighing heavily on Wan Qingxue’s heart.

“Now, it’s your turn.

Do you have anything to say?”

Wan Qingxue hung her head low, silent.

“It seems you have nothing to say.

In that case, I’ll make my move.”

Lu Chuan drew his Soul Terminating Sword, readying himself.

“Hold this for me.”

Lu Chuan handed the candied hawthorn he was holding to Jyang Ran.

“Did you buy this for me?” Jyang Ran asked, flattered.

“It wasn’t.

On my way here, a vendor insisted on selling it to me, and I didn’t want to waste time, so I bought it.”

“Oh…

I see.”

As Lu Chuan raised his longsword, Wan Qingxue suddenly lifted her right hand.

“Before I die, I would like to eat something delicious; to die without regrets, what do you say?”

Lu Chuan looked at her and asked, “You still want to eat?

Are you craving human flesh or blood?”

Wan Qingxue pointed at the candied hawthorn in Jyang Ran’s hand and said, “I want to eat one of those.”

Jyang Ran looked down at the candied hawthorn in her hand.

“You want to eat this?

I thought you were looking for a lavish feast.”

Lu Chuan looked at the candied hawthorn in Jyang Ran’s hand, pondered for a moment, and said, “Jyang Ran, give it to her.”

“What?

Didn’t you buy it for me?

Why should I give it to her?”

“Just give it to her.

If you want some, go buy it yourself.”

Jyang Ran nodded helplessly and reluctantly handed over the candied hawthorn.

Wan Qingxue took the candied hawthorn, took a deep breath, opened her mouth, and prepared to eat one.

But just then, Lu Chuan quickly snatched the candied hawthorn away.

“What do you mean by this?” Wan Qingxue looked at Lu Chuan and asked loudly.

“I’ll eat the first one.”

Jyang Ran crossed her arms and looked at Lu Chuan, “Lu Chuan, how can you be gluttonous at a time like this?”

Lu Chuan ignored her, taking off the first candied hawthorn.

“This one seems a bit off.”

Lu Chuan glanced sidelong at Wan Qingxue, who was staring intently at the candied hawthorn, seemingly very nervous.

Then, Lu Chuan took off the first candied hawthorn and broke it open with his hands.

Hidden inside was an elixir pill!

Seeing the green elixir pill, Lu Chuan took a deep breath.

“This thing is definitely problematic!”

Lu Chuan turned his head to Wan Qingxue, “That candied hawthorn seller, there is indeed something wrong with him!

Tell me, who is that guy to you?”

Wan Qingxue took a deep breath and clenched her fists, “Lu Chuan!

You…

you bastard!”

She cursed furiously.

“Now tell me, who is that guy?

He’s the one backing you, right?

Let me guess, he’s from the Lu family?

I heard from Wan Qingyuan that the expert behind you is from the Lu family, which is why you have such confidence!”

Wan Qingxue said disdainfully, “So what if he is?

Now that you know, it changes nothing.

The Lu family has already begun planning against you.

They know your strength and potential, and so, they have sent someone who can truly kill you to Cloud Sea City!”

“Lu Chuan, killing me now is futile.

Blood Wail Sect, the Lu family, they will do everything in their power to kill you.

You can’t stop them!”
