587: Chapter 547 Hua Qianwu’s Invitation_1 587: Chapter 547 Hua Qianwu’s Invitation_1 After paying a visit to Yuan Gangquan, Hua Qianwu left the City Lord’s Mansion.

Within the City Lord’s Mansion, Yuan Gangquan paced back and forth, his face showing extreme tension.

The opportunity to break through to the Martial Emperor Realm was right before him, and he was pondering, how should he act to seize this chance?

As long as he could bring Lu Chuan to Flower City, he would not only prove his worth to Hua Qianwu, but also enable his own breakthrough to the Martial Emperor Realm.

However, achieving this seemed far from easy…

…

After Hua Qianwu had left, she stayed for one night in Carefree City.

Early the next morning, Lu Chuan got up early to wash and clean himself, and then continued to practice his swordsmanship in the back garden.

The Carefree Sword Technique wasn’t extensive and was all very practical.

Therefore, after practicing for a few days, Lu Chuan had mastered quite a bit.

While Lu Chuan was practicing his swordsmanship, the family’s caretaker came into the back garden and approached him.

“Young Master Lu, someone has come to visit and wishes to see you,” the caretaker said.

Lu Chuan turned to look at the caretaker and asked, “Who is it?”

“It is Hua Qianwu who arrived in Carefree City yesterday.

She came and specifically asked to see you by name.”

Lu Chuan frowned slightly, “Hua Qianwu, she has actually sought me out.

I’m curious to see what she really wants.”

Following that, Lu Chuan walked toward the main gate of the Gu family’s residence.

At the gate, a crowd had gathered.

Gu Changye was at the forefront, standing at the entrance with a friendly smile facing Hua Qianwu.

“Oh my, Miss Hua graces our Gu family with a visit, truly honoring us with your presence!” he said with a face full of smiles.

Although she still wore her veil, Hua Qianwu’s beauty was faintly visible underneath.

Her stunning appearance immediately captured the attention of all onlookers, who couldn’t help but gaze at her intently.

Even Gu Changye couldn’t resist taking a few extra glances.

“Are you the Family Head of the Gu family?” Hua Qianwu inquired.

“Yes, that’s me,” he responded.

“Where is Lu Chuan?”

Gu Changye asked, “May I inquire, Miss, what business do you have with Lu Chuan?”

“I wish to speak with him in private.

When will he be here?”

“The caretaker has already gone to call him.

He should be arriving shortly,” he replied.

Just then, Lu Chuan came over, entering Hua Qianwu’s line of sight.

“Lu Chuan!”

Lu Chuan approached Hua Qianwu and asked, “How do you know my name?”

Lu Chuan then turned to look at Gu Changye and inquired, “Did you tell her?”

“No, she mentioned wanting to see you the moment she arrived.

No one told her,” he replied.

Lu Chuan sneered, “You found out from Yuan Gangquan, didn’t you?”

Upon hearing this, Hua Qianwu was taken aback, not expecting Lu Chuan to see through the details instantly.

“Indeed, I visited Yuan Gangquan and got your information from him,” she admitted.

Lu Chuan shrugged dismissively, “So, what do you want with me?”

“I have learned that you are now an enemy of the Kunlun Domain’s Lu family, and they have even sent a martial general to capture you.”

“Now, you’re in the midst of a crisis.

Do you really think that by hiding in Carefree City, you’re out of trouble?”

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan immediately felt impatient, “What exactly are you trying to say?”

“If you could come back to Flower City with me, I can guarantee your safety.

The people of the Lu family won’t be able to threaten your personal safety.”

At these words, Lu Chuan’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Was she actually offering him protection without fearing the offense of the Lu family?

However, everything comes at a price.

If he were truly to seek protection from the Hua family, he might have to give up the Divine Tree branch he possessed.

That would not do.

The potential of this Divine Tree branch was immense.

If he could absorb the Spiritual Energy within it, who knew how many levels he could break through.

If he gave it away just for his own safety, that would be a huge loss.

However, this Hua Qianwu before him could be manipulated to his advantage.

Those who seek help from others always have the potential to be exploited.

Lu Chuan looked at Hua Qianwu, appearing quite troubled.

Gu Changye, standing by, began to panic.

If Lu Chuan left with Hua Qianwu, he would be safe, but wouldn’t it spell disaster for the Gu family?

How could the Lu family possibly let go of his Gu family?

Lu Chuan turned to Hua Qianwu and immediately said, “If I leave, the Lu family won’t just let things be.

They will annihilate the Gu family.”

On hearing this, Hua Qianwu’s beautiful eyebrows knitted slightly.

“What are you suggesting?

You want me to protect the entire Gu family too?

Such a large clan, we simply don’t have the resources for that.”

Gu Changye quickly looked to Lu Chuan and said, “Whatever you choose, I won’t interfere.

But if you decide to leave, please take Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang with you.

As long as the two of them are safe, that’s enough.”

Lu Chuan looked toward Hua Qianwu and continued, “If I go with you, what about my fiancée?

Do I just leave her here to fend for herself?”

Upon hearing this, Hua Qianwu fell into thought for a moment before asking, “Are you still concerned about matters of marriage?

You’ve offended the Lu family.”

“If you really need a wife that much, I could marry you, but only if you agree to come back to Flower City with me.”

At her words, there was an uproar in the room, everyone was shocked by what Hua Qianwu had said.

As a dancer, she was absolutely forbidden to marry or have relations with any man, or else her career as a dancer would be finished.

Yet now, Hua Qianwu was willing to be Lu Chuan’s wife, and such a beautiful woman—if he truly married her, that would make countless others envious!

For a moment, everyone turned their eyes to Lu Chuan, growing nervous.

Because, if it were up to them to choose, they would most likely give up on Gu Xiaorou and opt for Hua Qianwu.

Even though Gu Xiaorou was exceptionally beautiful and had an outstanding figure, ranking among the top in the whole of Carefree City,

she still paled in comparison to Hua Qianwu.

After all, one had been training in martial arts since childhood and the other had been dancing since a young age.

Hua Qianwu had a charm that Gu Xiaorou simply didn’t possess.

Moreover, Hua Qianwu was a lady from the preeminent aristocratic family of Flower City, her background and strength completely overshadowed the Gu family.

Lu Chuan, however, shook his head.

“I will only take Gu Xiaorou as my wife.

You don’t need to go to such lengths just to achieve your goal.”

Hua Qianwu looked dejected, watching Lu Chuan helplessly, “Am I really not as good as this Gu Xiaorou you speak of?”

“Enough, I’ll ask you one last time.

Are you willing to go to Flower City with me?

I will agree to all your conditions.

I came to you with no ill intentions,” she said earnestly, looking at Lu Chuan.

At this moment, Gu Changye’s heart relaxed; fortunately, there had been more fright than harm, and Lu Chuan hadn’t abandoned their Gu family.

Lu Chuan bowed his head slightly, lost in thought for a moment.

Sooner or later, he would have to venture deeper into the Kunlun Domain, which would likely mean passing through Flower City.

Since it was unavoidable, why not secure some additional conditions now—a surefire gain without any loss, wouldn’t that be delightful?

“Your desire for me to go back to Flower City with you isn’t impossible unless you help me with one thing.”

“Whatever it is, just tell me!”

Seeing a glimmer of hope, Hua Qianwu eagerly asked.

“Help me kill Lu Tianming, and then I’ll accompany you to Flower City!”
