Chapter 1209 - 1209 1169 Target Found

1209: Chapter 1169: Target Found 1209: Chapter 1169: Target Found Lu Qianyu stepped forward, glancing at Wu Tongwei, and asked, “Have you lost your mind?

Investigating me?”

“I am not crazy.

There’s something fishy here; the missing people are probably hidden right here by you!”

Lu Qianyu burst into laughter, “Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!

People are missing in the city, what does that have to do with me?

You want to search me without any reason, I can’t accept this!”

“Can’t accept it, huh?

Fine then, you’ve disobeyed my order, I will forcefully conduct the search!”

Wu Tongwei clenched his teeth as he spoke.

“Is that so?

Come and try!

You think I’m afraid of you?”

Lu Qianyu’s eyes widened, glaring terrifyingly at Wu Tongwei.

“Hmph, you think you can intimidate me?

Then bring it on, let’s fight.

You don’t obey my commands, let’s do it the hard way!”

Lu Qianyu clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.

She wished she could kill Wu Tongwei right then.

But she couldn’t do that.

She knew Wu Tongwei was no fool; he must have his reasons for being so provocative.

Bystanders around them couldn’t help but feel frightened.

To see Wu Tongwei this assertive was a first!

The Lu family is a giant in this city, not someone others can easily provoke!

Lord Wu really has the guts!

“Hmph, fine, I will cooperate with you, come on in, but if you find nothing, I won’t let you off easily.”

Wu Tongwei looked at the Soldier Armor beside him, and ordered, “Go in, start the search!”

The arranged soldiers went inside Lu Manor and began a thorough search.

Soldier Armor brushed past Lu Qianyu, who stood firm in the middle, still staring directly at Wu Tongwei.

“Lord Wu, this is it, you have completely turned against me.”

“Your existence has always made my work difficult, I have already lost popular support, I can’t accept the things you keep doing!”

“If you can’t accept it, that’s your problem, but let me warn you, it’s do or die now, I will not let you go!”

Wu Tongwei’s eyebrows furrowed, his gaze dark as he looked back at her, saying sternly, “I don’t need your reminders!”

Inside the courtyard of Lu Manor, the soldiers began to search the entire manor.

Lu Chuan blended in with them, inspecting the structure of the surroundings.

If there was anything hidden, it surely would be in the dungeon.

Lu Chuan turned to the caretaker beside him, demanding, “Take me to your dungeon!”

“What dungeon?

We don’t have a dungeon!”

“Impossible, you’re lying to me!”

Lu Chuan drew his sword and pressed it against the caretaker’s neck.

“Official Master, seriously, we don’t have it.

There’s no need for such things in Lu Manor.

Even if you ask me to lead the way, I wouldn’t know how.”

“Is that so?

Forget it then.”

Lu Chuan sheathed his sword.

He knew that using force would lead nowhere.

He could only look around and observe the situation.

The rooms were searched one by one, finding nothing.

No clues.

This way, their operation was a failure.

Lu Chuan’s brows were tightly knitted, sweeping his gaze around, “Well hidden, absolutely undetectable.”

“We will have to find another opportunity.”

“That’s the only way.”

Lu Chuan planned to use the cautious nature of people to induce them to reveal the truth.

“Is the search finished?

Found nothing?

Then let’s go back.”

The team regrouped and came to the entrance of Lu Manor.

The soldiers gradually exited, returning to stand behind Wu Tongwei.

Lu Qianyu looked down at Wu Tongwei, sneering, “Found nothing, so this counts as slander, right?

I’m not pursuing it now, but the day I decide to, you better be careful.”

Wu Tongwei took a deep breath, “Let’s return to our residence, let this go!”

At that moment, Lu Chuan approached him, whispering something in his ear.

After he finished, Wu Tongwei’s eyebrows relaxed and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

“Alright, I got it.”

He turned slightly and whispered back to Lu Chuan.

This scene was caught by Lu Qianyu.

Her eyes widened with shock.

Although Lu Chuan was disguised in Soldier Armor, the figure was too familiar!

She seemed to have seen through Lu Chuan’s disguise, knowing that the person whispering to Wu Tongwei was Lu Chuan!

She didn’t dare to expose him now, but she was internally conflicted.

“Alright, let’s head back for now, Lu Qianyu, this time it was our mistake, a bit rash, sorry.”

He casually clasped his hands in apology, then led the team away.

Seeing that Wu Tongwei was neither angry nor anxious, Lu Qianyu began to worry.

“It couldn’t be…

did they discover something?”

“Impossible, it’s hidden so deeply, how could it be found!”

She decisively turned and walked back into the manor.

Though she knew it was improbable, she still felt concerned; after all, it was Lu Chuan, a man of many methods, not just anyone.

Perhaps he really did use some method and noticed something!

At this time, as the City Guards squadron was about to return, Lu Chuan and Wu Tongwei both stopped.

“Lu Chuan, is this really okay?

We didn’t find anything, we miscalculated!”

“Your performance just now was good, successfully misled her, she probably is already doubting, but isn’t sure yet.”

“Possible, she might check to see if anything was marked.”

“So, if we go back now, we’ll definitely catch them off guard!”

Wu Tongwei nodded slightly, “But if we go back now, how do we get in?

The place is heavily guarded!”

“I have my ways, you just need to stand by and guard me!”

Lu Chuan led Wu Tongwei back, and in a secluded alley, he sat down cross-legged.

Wu Tongwei squatted beside him, curiously asking, “What are you planning to do?”

“You don’t need to know too much, just stay by my side.”

Lu Chuan slowly closed his eyes.

Then, his Divine Soul gradually separated from his body and floated in the air.

The Divine Soul flew up towards the sky, heading above Lu Manor.

Then, Lu Chuan saw Lu Qianyu’s figure.

She slowly walked to an old dry well in a corner, circled around it, seemingly inspecting it seriously.

Lu Chuan’s eyebrows furrowed; that ancient well was quite special, hidden in the corner, surrounded by disarray, looking like it had been abandoned for a long time.

So, Lu Chuan specifically went to check it because it seemed a perfect place to hide something.

But when he checked, he found nothing; it was just an old broken well!

Lu Chuan hovered in the air, watching Lu Qianyu’s figure.

Just then, Lu Qianyu extended her hands, and a light screen unfolded, enveloping her surroundings.

Then, she opened her mouth, apparently saying something.

However, Lu Chuan couldn’t hear anymore.

“Sound blocked?

Damn, this woman even has such an ability.”

“What is she saying, who is she talking to?”

“Could it be the secluded Demon Beast?”

“Hidden at the bottom of the well?

That’s quite concealed.”
