Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1197 - 1197 1157 Final Preparations

1197: Chapter 1157: Final Preparations 1197: Chapter 1157: Final Preparations Wu Dahu respectfully saw Lu Chuan off.

At the entrance of the City Lord’s Mansion, Lu Chuan bid farewell to Wu Dahu.

Watching Lu Chuan’s departing figure, Wu Dahu couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

He originally thought that his most beloved son would be completely paralyzed for life, but unexpectedly, there was a turning point…

Lu Chuan returned inside the Guan Family Mansion.

It was late at night, and everyone had gone to sleep.

Lu Chuan also returned to his own room to sleep.

Before sleeping, he continued to cultivate for a moment.

He was only one step away from breaking through to the Fifth Grade of the Divided Spirit Realm.

Lu Chuan felt that he must complete this breakthrough before dealing with Lu Qianyu.

The next morning.

After getting up, Lu Chuan practiced his maneuvers diligently in the courtyard.

He had only learned one maneuver, the Supreme Phantom Dodge.

He didn’t learn any other martial arts skills.

With the blessing of Divine Fire, martial arts skills were optional.

Fiery Sword Qi, Fireball Throw, Mysterious Fire Body Protection—these effects were already enough to overpower a host of ordinary martial arts skills, making it completely unnecessary for Lu Chuan to learn additional swordsmanship or any other spells.

While Lu Chuan was practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard, Dongfang Cheng walked in.

“Lu Chuan, practicing swordsmanship?

Let’s spar, I recently learned a new martial arts skill.”

Seeing him enthusiastically walking over, Lu Chuan sheathed the Soul Terminating Sword, “You want to spar with me?

I don’t see the need, why not find Jyang Ran or Gu Xiaorou to spar with?

Their strength is similar to yours.”

“They both ignore me, let’s just do it between us.”

Dongfang Cheng drew his Peijian, ready to spar with Lu Chuan.

“Alright, then I’ll accompany you for a practice.”

Drawing the Soul Terminating Sword, Lu Chuan approached him, and the two began to spar.

After only a few rounds of exchanges, Dongfang Cheng was already drenched in sweat.

His sword movements and angles were completely seen through by Lu Chuan.

It wasn’t a gap in skill, but purely a gap in strength.

Reaction, speed, strength, all were inferior to Lu Chuan.

“The difference in strength is like a chasm, it’s hard to compensate with any swordsmanship unless the gap is small!”

Dongfang Cheng clasped his hands in a salute, “Today was truly an enlightening experience.”

Lu Chuan sheathed the Soul Terminating Sword, “This is why I don’t practice swordsmanship.

Instead of that, I’d rather focus on making a breakthrough in seclusion.”

“By the way, how is Guan Tianjun doing?”

Dongfang Cheng moved beside Lu Chuan, “I don’t know, this person seems weird.”

“I’m starting to suspect that he has chickened out and sided with Lu Qianyu, but we don’t have any solid evidence for now, so let’s leave it be.”

“If we initiate a conflict with Lu Qianyu, do we have a chance of winning?” Dongfang Cheng asked.

“Of course, Lu Qianying, Wu Dahu, they have already chosen to stand with us.”

“If she wants to erupt into conflict, the one who may end up losing isn’t necessarily us.”

“But Lu Qianyu, she has gathered quite a group of people.”

Dongfang Cheng looked rather worried.

“Don’t worry too much, those riff-raff, small families scavenging behind Lu Manor, can they compare to the City Lord?”

“We definitely have the advantage!”

Dongfang Cheng then asked: “The City Lord has no relation with us, will he firmly stand by our side?”

“He might not have a relation with me, but he has one with his son, doesn’t he?”

“His son is crippled, only if I’m alive can his son have his legs healed, he must stand by my side, otherwise, he would be sacrificing his own son!”

“If that’s the case, we do have the advantage!” Dongfang Cheng said excitedly.

“Now, my only worry is that Lu Qianyu will bring in her tamed demon beasts!”

“If demon beasts rampage into the city, the problem would be huge!”

Lu Chuan saw Gu Xiaorou and the others coming over.

The three of them walked over and reached Lu Chuan’s side.

“What are the plans for today?

Are we continuing with the preparations to face the enemy?” Gu Xiaorou asked as she approached.

“Xiao Rou, if the battle really starts, will you join in?”

Gu Xiaorou clenched her fists, excitedly saying, “Of course!

I’ve finally reached this realm, and I’ve been itching to spar with someone!”

“However…

I might pick on some weaklings to fight.

I’ll leave the tough ones to you,” she said with an embarrassed smile.

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Alright, I’ll go gather some more information and see when exactly that Lu Qianyu plans to make her move.”

“We need to get prepared too.”

As Lu Chuan was about to leave, he ran into Lu Ziyang who had just returned.

After returning, Lu Ziyang walked up to Lu Chuan.

“Lu Chuan, I just went out and it seems something isn’t right!”

He spoke with a grave expression.

Lu Chuan focused on him, “You’re still going out now?

Aren’t you afraid of being captured?”

“What do I have to be afraid of, I’m not useless, to be caught just like that.”

“You know what I found out?”

“That Lu Qianyu, she plans to gather her demon beasts outside the city, as her last resort!”

“If she can’t defeat you, she intends to let the demon beasts into the city, wreaking havoc on everything!

Then, the entire Hei Jin City will be destroyed!”

“That would definitely be a disaster!”

Lu Ziyang said nervously.

“What?” Lu Chuan furrowed his brows.

“Letting demon beasts gather outside the city, if she loses, she’ll let them in for a massacre?”

“Yes, exactly like that.”

Dongfang Cheng clenched his teeth and said, “This person really can’t handle losing!”

“How did you get this information?” Jyang Ran asked curiously, tilting his head.

“I took a Soul Perception Pill, which allowed me to steal the content of nearby people’s conversations through a soul.”

“Then, I encountered a mysterious person who turned into an alley, seemingly passing on information.

I didn’t follow him but overheard their conversation from the noisy streets.”

Hearing this, Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “I see…

you’re not lying, right?”

“Of course not!

They’ve already said it, they are gathering demon beasts in a dense forest in the north of the city, ready to act any moment!”

Lu Ziyang swallowed nervously, “I guess, this is Lu Qianyu’s final move.

Once her preparations are complete, she’s going to attack us!”

Lu Chuan clenched his fists, “No, we can’t let her complete her plan smoothly.

If that’s the case, then I’ll leave the city, kill a batch of demon beasts and give her a severe blow!”

“We can’t let her implement her plan so smoothly, otherwise, no matter win or lose, it would have a very bad impact!”

Lu Chuan straightened his clothes, grabbed his weapons, and prepared to set off.

“Do you need my help?” Dongfang Cheng asked.

“Then come along.

If there are too many demon beasts, you can help in killing them.”

Dongfang Cheng immediately got excited, “Great, I’ll go prepare the horses!”

Gu Xiaorou hurriedly came over, “I want to go too.”

“You stay here, the demon beasts outside are too dangerous, you should practice your swordsmanship here.”
