Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1259 - 1259 1219 The Butcher of the City

1259: Chapter 1219: The Butcher of the City 1259: Chapter 1219: The Butcher of the City A long queue had formed at the entrance of Bai Yan City’s city gate.

Lu Chuan was at the end of the line, preparing to enter the city in turn.

After a long wait in line, it was finally almost Lu Chuan’s turn.

“Have you heard?

There’s been a change inside the city; the Dongfang Residence has actually undergone a complete transformation!”

Behind Lu Chuan, two people were having a very serious conversation.

Lu Chuan turned his head and glanced at them.

The two continued to chat.

“What does it have to do with me?

Transformations or not, it doesn’t affect my monthly wages of over a dozen silver pieces.

No matter who I work for, it’s all the same.”

“You really have a big heart.

Do you think the Dongfang family will swallow this loss?

Sooner or later they’ll fight back, and when that time comes, it’ll be a bloodbath in Bai Yan City.

If you can’t escape, you’ll be out of luck!”

“Heh, worst case scenario, I’ll flee to the mountains and avoid this chaotic world.”

“It’s not a big deal, what’s there to be afraid of?”

“But the Dongfang family actually suffered a setback, especially in such an important place as Bai Yan City.

Could it be that the Dongfang family is on the brink of collapse?”

They continued their lively conversation, and Lu Chuan only listened for a moment.

These people seemed to not have much understanding of the incidents happening inside the city.

For example, concerning matters about Lu You.

But just then, someone brought up Lu You’s name.

“What are you all talking about?

The turmoil in the Dongfang family is actually the doing of the Lu family.

They sent an extremely powerful Array Master who took control of the Dongfang Residence.”

“I’ve even seen that person, called Lu You, who slaughtered countless people, a very terrifying woman!”

Immediately, everyone looked at the speaker.

“What?

Orchestrated by the Lu family?

It’s definitely possible.

Otherwise, the Dongfang Residence couldn’t have just crumbled from within!”

“What did you say?

A woman named Lu You?”

“Why?

Do you know her?”

“Know her?

She’s like a nightmare!”

“That woman once massacred an entire city.

You all may not know; a city disappeared, turned into a ghost town, not a single person left!”

Everyone looked at the speaker, a big-bearded man with a face full of terror.

“Are you sure you’re not mistaken?

Massacring a city?

That’s impossible!”

“Absolutely true, I was delivering goods from Bai Yan City to Juyang City, and on the way, I passed through a small city called Tang City.”

“During the journey, I saw people escaping from that place.”

“After they told me about the situation in Tang City, they all went insane.”

“I was scared at the time, but delivery time was approaching, so I continued on to Juyang City.”

“When I returned, I planned to go check it out, but found that it had turned into a ghost town.”

“An old man told me that a woman named Lu You had come there and destroyed everything.”

Upon hearing this, everyone was frightened.

If this was true, and this female demon was within their Bai Yan City, that was simply too terrifying—afterward, who would dare to stay in the city?

“Is this… is this true?

That woman, having come to our Bai Yan City, isn’t going to do the same here, is she?”

“There are so many people in Bai Yan City, if we all died here, that would be too outrageous, she wouldn’t dare do such a thing, right?”

Everyone looked at the big-bearded man, their expressions growing tense.

The big bearded man scratched his head and pondered for a moment before saying, “She probably won’t.

The reason she destroyed Tang City was likely because the Lu Manor there was suspected of treachery, she might have detected the situation and went there to investigate, and once confirmed, she acted decisively.”

Upon hearing this, everyone inevitably took a breath of cold air.

The big-bearded man continued, “Our Bai Yan City, being a strategic location and capable of harvesting wealth, there’s absolutely no need for Lu You to kill us, it’s definitely impossible, everyone relax, don’t worry.”

People began talking among themselves, feeling increasingly restless and anxious as if the Bai Yan City before their eyes had descended into hell, rendering them too terrified to enter.

Lu Chuan approached the main gate but was stopped by a guard.

“Hold it!”

The guard stepped forward, blocking Lu Chuan’s way.

Lu Chuan looked at the guard and asked, “Is there a problem?”

“Of course, you cannot enter!”

Furrowing his brows, Lu Chuan asked, “Why not?”

“A wanted criminal, and you still have the audacity to ask us why!

Men, draw your weapons, prepare to engage!”

Immediately, the guard in front of him drew the machete from his waist.

Seeing this, Lu Chuan sensed trouble.

Looking towards the side of the city wall gate, he shockingly noticed a notice posted there featuring wanted individuals, and Lu Chuan was one of them!

And it was placed in the most conspicuous spot, offering a terrifyingly high reward of fifty thousand taels of Gold!

Anyone who could capture Lu Chuan would indeed strike it rich.

However, the people present naturally stood no chance against Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan drew his Soul Terminating Sword, “You’re courting death!

You want to fight me?

Come on then!”

Hearing this, the guard roared angrily, “Brothers, it’s time to get that bounty, prepare to move!”

They started advancing towards Lu Chuan.

Several people who had been lining up behind Lu Chuan were now scared and scattered in all directions.

Upon hearing about Lu You’s massacre, they completely lost the will to resist, the only thought left in their minds was to flee from here as quickly as possible!

They worried that Lu Chuan’s appearance would offend Lu You, potentially leading to indiscriminate killings once again by Lu You.

All the guards before them drew their weapons, yet no one dared to charge forward.

Because they were well aware, although the reward was temptingly high, the target’s strength surely matched it.

As such, they wouldn’t recklessly endanger their lives by taking action.

“What’s the matter?

Don’t you want the bounty?

Come on, are you afraid to act?”

They looked at each other, all frozen in place, extremely nervous.

Boom!

A Sun Divine Fireball appeared in Lu Chuan’s palm.

Although they hesitated, Lu Chuan had no intention of sparing them!

Boom!!

Lu Chuan threw the fireball in his hands without any hesitation.

Whoosh!

The fireball crashed their way, and the city gate guards scattered instantly, utterly devoid of any will to resist.

For them, they knew well they were no match for Lu Chuan.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t merely be guarding the gate among the City Guards.

The fireball crashed down, and they scattered to flee, but it was too late.

The fireball exploded at the city gate, engulfing the small squad of a dozen men in fierce flames.

Almost instantly, the group was reduced to nothing but charred bodies, completely devoid of any ability to fight back.

Having easily eliminated the city gate guards, Lu Chuan prepared to enter the city.

Although the entrance was in chaos, Lu Chuan still needed to investigate further.

He couldn’t give Lu You the opportunity to prepare, he had to strike unexpectedly, and with his Sword Control Technique, even if he couldn’t defeat his adversary, he wouldn’t worry about getting trapped inside the city.
