Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1247 - 1247 1207 Arrival

1247: Chapter 1207: Arrival 1247: Chapter 1207: Arrival After a short wait, Bai Qing came out holding a precious sword.

The sword shined with a pure white brilliance, its blade was sharp and exuded a formidable aura of solemn killing intent.

Walking over, Bai Qing said with a smile, “This sword is named Dawn; it boasts a slender body and a razor-sharp edge.”

“Its unique feature is such that when you channel Sword Qi through it, the power of your Sword Qi becomes extraordinarily sharp!”

“It can slice through iron as if it were mud, with absolute ease.”

Bai Qing spoke with unequivocal confidence.

Hearing this, Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Not bad, but how is the quality of this precious sword?

Is it of Immortal grade?”

“Of course, Immortal Grade One, just barely touching the threshold, hence the sword is enshrouded in a wispy presence of Immortal Qi.”

“I poured my heart and soul into crafting this sword; in your hands, it will certainly be a powerful support to you!”

He said, laughing, and then handed the precious sword over to Gu Xiaorou.

Gu Xiaorou quickly reached out with both hands, respectfully accepting the precious sword.

“Thank you, elder, for your help and effort, I will surely treasure and use it carefully.”

Bai Qing responded with a beaming smile, “I believe in you, I can tell, you’re a careful girl.”

Lu Chuan looked towards Gu Xiaorou and said, “Let’s go, we are heading to Bai Yan City now.”

Bai Qing stood up to see them off, “Are you leaving tonight?”

“Yes, there has been a situation in Bai Yan City, somewhat urgent, it’s best I go there myself.”

“Really?

What happened?

My daughter is also there, I am quite worried about her.”

Lu Chuan continued, “There’s been unrest within the Dongfang family in Bai Yan City, with turmoil spilling onto the streets and a split emerging within the Dongfang Residence.”

“I suspect someone has instigated this intentionally.”

“The reason is quite simple; some in the Dongfang family believe they shouldn’t have to pay too much Tribute Silver to the main residence.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Qing’s eyebrows furrowed tightly, “Bai Yan City has always been stable, how could it suddenly become so chaotic!”

“It seems that place really is in trouble; we should go check it out!”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, then grabbed Gu Xiaorou’s wrist, “Let’s go, we’re heading back.”

Lu Chuan left with her in tow.

“Young Master Lu, if you see my daughter, please send her my regards and tell her that my health has recovered and that I have always been waiting for her.”

Lu Chuan looked back at him, saying, “Don’t worry, I will.”

The two left the old house.

They arrived back in front of Lu Manor.

The carriage was already stationed by the roadside.

Lu Chuan walked towards the carriage.

Lu Qianying, accompanied by important members of the house, was there to send them off.

She approached Lu Chuan and asked, “Are you in such a hurry?

Why not rest here for the night before leaving?”

“No, the situation there is pressing.

It’s better if I leave as soon as possible.”

“There are no major issues here, just manage Lu Manor well on your behalf.”

Lu Qianying gave a slight nod, then continued to ask, “What about the future…

Should I continue to act independently, or…?”

“What should I do if Lu Fusheng sends someone here?”

She asked with a trace of hesitation.

“It’s simple, in the eyes of Lu Fusheng, you are an enemy, he will not let you off.”

“So what do you mean?”

Lu Qianying pressed, “I want to know, how far are you willing to go?

Are you going to kill Lu Fusheng and then take over the Lu family?

If that’s the case, I will stand by your side without wavering!”

She earnestly spoke, expressing her stance to Lu Chuan.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan nodded with satisfaction.

“That’s right, just wait here for that day, and before it comes, take good care of Lu family’s current situation.”

“Alright, since you’ve said so, I will definitely carry out my duties seriously!”

She nodded vigorously, an involuntary smile appearing on her face.

Lu Chuan boarded the carriage—with him, a party of five, included Lu Ziyang, making six in total—as they began their journey towards Bai Yan City.

The carriage slowly departed from Hei Jin City.

Traveling on the road, the setting sun dyed the sky red as they moved forward.

Inside the carriage, Gu Xiaorou curiously looked towards Dongfang Cheng.

“Is the trouble caused by your Dongfang family serious?”

“Not too serious, just internal strife, mutual slaughter, and battling one another.”

“As long as we can suppress one faction, it would be sufficient.”

“However, if this is orchestrated by someone else, then it’s a different matter.

We have to find the culprit!”

“The culprit, if it turns out to be as expected, is probably someone from the Lu family!”

“Bai Yan City is a very important place for our Dongfang family; we can’t afford too great a loss!”

Dongfang Cheng sighed deeply, feeling immense pressure, knowing that if he wanted to handle this matter, he must do so flawlessly.

This incident is a matter concerning the entire Dongfang family.

While the fall of Bai Yan City wouldn’t deal a fatal blow to the Dongfang family, its importance to the family remains indisputable.

This matter has the attention of everyone in the Dongfang family.

Even Dongfang Cheng’s father was already working on a solution.

If Dongfang Cheng could resolve this issue quickly during this period, his status and prestige within the Dongfang family would certainly soar!

Inside the Dongfang family, there have always been two factions.

Unlike Bai Yan City, within the Dongfang family, there are the pro-war and anti-war factions.

A large number of people believe that the Dongfang family should not wage war against the Lu family, thinking the losses too great and the casualties too many, virtually shortening the family’s lifespan.

Another faction, evidently more ambitious, believes that defeating the Lu family would make them the strongest family in the Kunlun Domain!

The internal conflict has been unresolved, but fortunately, the pro-war faction holds more power.

Lu Chuan looked out of the carriage, the scenery outside moving backwards as the carriage advanced.

“Dongfang Cheng, do you have the ambition to be the Family Head of the Dongfang family?”

Dongfang Cheng looked up at Lu Chuan, “Why do you suddenly ask this?”

“If it went by normal succession, would it be your turn?”

Dongfang Cheng shook his head slightly, “I have three older brothers, two older sisters, and three younger sisters.”

“There are many people in our family, each with their own strengths, and many who are stronger than me.”

“So, if it’s my turn to be the Family Head, it’s probably unlikely in my lifetime.”

He shrugged nonchalantly, seemingly indifferent to this prospect as he had never harbored such ambitions.

“I can help you become the Family Head of your clan, as long as the strength is sufficient,” Lu Chuan said seriously.

At these words, Dongfang Cheng took a deep breath, “That’s a bit of a stretch, isn’t it?

And besides, if I become the Family Head…

what about my father?”

“He can retire early; that is not out of the question.

If I am to overturn the Lu family, then I hope the Dongfang family will cease the warfare,” Lu Chuan spoke.

“And within the Dongfang family, the only person I trust is you!”
