Chapter 590 - 590 550 The Life and Death of the Gu Family_1

590: Chapter 550: The Life and Death of the Gu Family_1 590: Chapter 550: The Life and Death of the Gu Family_1 General Lu Tianming took out the dagger, and aimed the blade at his index finger.

However, after hesitating for a moment, he put down the dagger.

Seeing this, Hua Qianwu felt somewhat uneasy, but she feigned composure and asked, “Is there a problem?”

Lu Tianming looked up at Hua Qianwu and asked, “What kind of flower is this?

Can it really have such miraculous effects?”

“Since a drop of blood is all it takes to release an enchanting fragrance, then let one of my subordinates do it.”

After saying that, he looked towards several personal attendants behind him.

Upon seeing this, Hua Qianwu hastily reminded him, “It is so that only the person whose blood is dripped can smell the unique fragrance of the flower.”

“Therefore, you must personally drop your blood onto the flower to be able to smell this scent.”

Hearing this, General Lu Tianming slightly frowned and asked, “Must I do this to see you dance?”

Hua Qianwu nodded slightly, “Under the spiritual pleasure of the flower’s fragrance, my dance can reach its ultimate potential, and you will enjoy it to the fullest.”

After pondering for a moment, Lu Tianming decided he couldn’t miss such an opportunity, so he picked up the dagger again.

Seeing this, Hua Qianwu finally breathed a sigh of relief and was no longer nervous.

Although she was unclear how this would help Lu Chuan, she still wanted to give it a try and chose to trust Lu Chuan this one time.

This General Lu Tianming was no ordinary man in terms of strength; if this did not go well, she might not be able to protect herself.

However, with the backing of her family’s power, General Lu Tianming probably wouldn’t dare to lay a hand on her.

General Lu Tianming held the dagger and cut his index finger, allowing his fresh blood to drip onto the flower.

The white petals stained with fresh blood instantly turned blood red.

Immediately, indeed, a peculiar fragrance began to diffuse around.

Lu Tianming took a careful sniff, and instantly his brows relaxed, feeling joy in his heart.

“It is indeed as you said, this fragrance is truly delightful,” he remarked with a slight smile.

He raised his hand toward the stage and said, “Now, please begin your performance.

I’ve heard that the dancers of Flower City are stunning, and today, allow me to fully appreciate your figure.”

“After enjoying the performance, I’ll go and capture that bastard and bring him back to the Lu Family Manor.”

Hua Qianwu turned and headed towards the stage, and at the same time, she began to ponder in her heart.

General Lu Tianming had mentioned something important in his words just now which made her introspect.

He said that Lu Chuan is a bastard traitor of the Lu family.

Doesn’t that mean that this Lu Chuan is actually a member of the Lu family, only to have been expelled and regarded as an enemy?

True enough, this Lu Chuan is no ordinary person, no wonder he is so powerful.

Hua Qianwu arrived at the center of the stage, and then, the musicians band who came with Hua Qianwu to Carefree City positioned themselves on either side.

They wielded ancient instruments such as the guzheng, jade flute, and pipa, providing accompaniment for Hua Qianwu’s dance.

Following that, Hua Qianwu began to dance gracefully, her near-perfect figure making every movement embody beauty.

Lu Tianming watched Hua Qianwu’s dance, occasionally stroking his chin and revealing a satisfied smile.

…

Meanwhile, at the Gu Family Manor, the gate was tightly shut, with everyone hiding inside, daring not to go out.

In the Council Hall, Gu Changye sat in the chief seat with a worried look on his face.

The core members of the Gu family were seated on either side, all with extremely unsightly expressions at this moment.

They had never expected that General Lu Tianming would actually arrive in Carefree City tonight, and he even had his cavalry seal off the city gates, leaving them no chance of escape.

“We are now fish in a barrel, engaged in a desperate struggle.

Facing the martial generals of the Lu family next, we will be helpless.

If he wishes to exterminate our Gu family, it would be a piece of cake for him.”

“The most critical issue is that we now have no means of escape.

Even Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang will find it difficult to flee under the city’s lockdown.”

The elders all had faces full of worry and sighed with deep distress.

Gu Changye looked at Lu Chuan with a solemn gaze and asked, “Lu Chuan, do you have any countermeasures?

The enemy came too swiftly.

If I had known earlier, I would have had you lay low a bit sooner.”

Hearing this, Lu Chuan, however, shook his head.

“There’s no need.

I am here to kill Lu Tianming.”

“If Lu Tianming dies here, it will take some time before the Lu family can spare more men to send over.”

Upon hearing these words, everyone in the Council Hall stared at Lu Chuan with an incomprehensible look in their eyes.

Kill Lu Tianming?

But how easy could that be?

After all, the man is a seasoned martial general of the Lu family, battle-hardened, and possesses the strength of the Martial Emperor Realm.

How could an ordinary person possibly kill him?

Even someone in the Martial Emperor Realm would need to consider whether they possess sufficient combat experience or the intense killing aura derived from slaying countless foes.

Those martial artists who painstakingly train in the city’s martial arts dojos simply cannot compare to soldiers who have fought and bled on the battlefield.

Lu Chuan, after all, came from the secular world; it’s unlikely he has experienced warfare.

Let alone anything else, he certainly has less of the bloodthirst of a warrior.

“Kill Lu Tianming?

Do you think you can do it?

On what basis?”

The Fourth Elder looked at Lu Chuan, still finding it hard to believe his claim.

The Great Elder stroked his beard in resignation and said, “It’s not easy to kill a Martial Emperor.

Do you truly believe you have that strength?”

He looked at Lu Chuan with a serious and slightly hopeful gaze.

Lu Chuan addressed Gu Changye, “After tonight, you will see Lu Tianming’s corpse!”

“All you need to do is wait here for the news.

When I return, I will bring back Lu Tianming’s corpse.”

Lu Chuan spoke with ease and naturalness, not at all as if he was lying, and seemed entirely confident.

“Fine, I’ll trust you this time.

Before, I did not believe you when you said you could kill Lu Jue.

This time, we’ll wait for your news!” Gu Changye said with immense tension.

Killing a martial general of the Lu family was something he had never even contemplated, nor dared to imagine.

In his mind, even if everyone in Carefree City joined forces to launch an attack on Lu Tianming, they would most likely not be able to kill him.

Instead, they might end up being slaughtered by Lu Tianming alone.

“Everyone just wait here; I’ll be back soon,” Lu Chuan said before he left the Council Hall.

The onlookers stared at Lu Chuan’s retreating figure, filled with incredulity.

“I am really curious where he gets his confidence from.”

“Perhaps he’s confident because he comes from the secular world and doesn’t know about the strength of the martial generals in the Kunlun Domain?”

“Impossible, even if he’s unaware of the martial generals’ strength, shouldn’t he be clear about the combat power of the Martial Emperor Realm?

It’s not like he hasn’t killed Martial King Realm powerhouses before.”

“It’s useless to say more now; we can only wait for his news.”

“The very life and death of the Gu family may depend on Lu Chuan alone.”

Inside the Council Hall, many began to clasp their hands together in prayer, as tonight would be the turning point for the Gu family, life or death hinged on this evening.
