628: Chapter 588: You Can’t Escape Anymore_1 628: Chapter 588: You Can’t Escape Anymore_1 Lu Ming walked out, smirking with triumph.

In front of him, Lu Chuan was now trapped in an inescapable situation.

Poisoned, Lu Chuan was about to enter a weakened state, where both his speed and strength would be greatly diminished.

Therefore, even as Lu Ming emerged, he believed he would not die at Lu Chuan’s hands.

Moreover, after ten minutes, Lu Chuan would surely die, decisively declaring Lu Ming’s victory.

“I heard from Huang Yueqing that you have a Divine Tree branch on you?”

“But he was right about one thing; you don’t deserve to possess such a divine item.

Having it on you is completely desecrating its sanctity.”

He slowly walked towards Lu Chuan, and when he saw beads of cold sweat on Lu Chuan’s forehead and his pale complexion, he revealed a smug smile.

“Now, if you hand over the item obediently, I can allow you to die a peaceful death, otherwise, these last ten minutes will be the most painful of your life.”

Lu Chuan sighed deeply, lowered his head slightly, and said, “If that’s the case, then come over, I’ll give it to you.”

“First, take out the item so I can see exactly what it is!”

Lu Ming said cautiously.

“It’s this.”

Lu Chuan took out a black box from his bosom and placed it in the palm of his hand.

“Indeed, it’s no ordinary item; just taking it out, there’s a surge of Spiritual Energy.

This Divine Tree branch is an extremely rare treasure in the entire Kunlun Domain.”

“Good, you’re being cooperative.

It seems you’ve resigned yourself to your fate.

A wise man submits to circumstances.

Since you’re so compliant, I’ll just leave you here to live or die by yourself.”

Having said that, he walked toward Lu Chuan.

He reached out to take the box from Lu Chuan’s hand.

But just at that moment, the Nine Heavens Profound Fire inside Lu Chuan’s body accelerated and surged toward his right shoulder.

Lu Chuan felt a burning sensation in his right shoulder as the Nine Heavens Profound Fire gradually forced the poison out of his body.

In almost the blink of an eye, the pallor of Lu Chuan’s face returned to normal, and the cold sweat on his forehead ceased.

And Lu Ming, he was now right in front of him; the slippery old rat had nowhere to hide.

Just as Lu Ming reached out and grabbed the box, Lu Chuan looked up at him intently.

“This time, you won’t escape.”

After saying this, Lu Chuan revealed a kind smile on his face.

In that instant, Lu Ming’s pupils shrank, and he looked at Lu Chuan in terror.

“What…

What!

Your complexion…

The poison has no effect on you at all?”

He stared at Lu Chuan in disbelief; the Lu Chuan in front of him looked exactly the same as before, not at all like someone who had been poisoned.

At that moment, Lu Ming was completely dumbfounded; his poison had no effect on Lu Chuan at all!

In his panic, the first thought that came to mind was to flee!!

Without hesitation, he turned to run away from Lu Chuan!

However, just as he started to turn, Lu Chuan pounced on him directly.

Thud!!!

Lu Chuan pinned Lu Ming down firmly, rendering him unable to move.

“You bastard, let me go!”

“The Lu family will not let you off; you family outcast, you traitor!”

He shouted in anger.

Lu Chuan punched him hard in the back of the neck!

With a ferocious punch, Lu Ming coughed repeatedly and his vision darkened.

“You’re finished, this time there is no escape!” Lu Chuan said sternly.

“Let me go!

If you dare to kill me, you’re a dead man!”

“Lu Fusheng will not let you off, you’ll sooner or later die at the hands of the Lu family!”

“Let me go!!”

He shouted angrily.

Lu Chuan drew his bronze sword and stabbed it into the man’s back, piercing through the soil to pin him to the ground.

Blood immediately began to flow out, spreading in all directions.

Pierced by the bronze sword, Lu Ming let out a series of agonizing screams as blood continually gushed from his mouth.

“If the Lu family sends more people, I will kill them all without exception, whether it’s Lu Tianming, you, or any other member of the Lu family that comes after—I won’t spare any of them!”

“As for Lu Fusheng, I will make him pay sooner or later!”

Having lost too much blood, Lu Ming gradually died, and Lu Chuan withdrew the bronze sword and replaced it in its sheath.

He then crouched in front of Lu Ming’s body and searched him.

Soon, he found over a hundred taels of gold, a rare book, and the Lu family’s token.

As an assassin, his body truly had no unnecessary items, only flying darts and hidden weapons remaining.

Lu Chuan picked up the rare book which bore three big characters on the cover, Supreme Phantom Dodge.

This was indeed the martial arts skill that Lu Ming most commonly used.

Lu Chuan had seen its effects first-hand, which were truly astounding, especially at night.

Moving like a specter, one’s eyes couldn’t capture any trace of him at all, and if he chose to flee, he was impossible to track.

After pocketing the rare book, Lu Chuan stood up and walked towards Huang Yueqing.

Huang Yueqing had an elder’s token on him, as well as some gold wound medicine and various other items.

Overall, nothing particularly useful.

After collecting everything, Lu Chuan heard a series of hurried footsteps.

Looking back, he saw it was Hua Qianwu and the others running towards him.

Hua Qianwu looked at Lu Chuan and quickly asked, “Are you okay?

We heard screams from afar.”

Gu Xiaorou hurried over to Lu Chuan, glanced at the corpses around her, and couldn’t help but exclaim, “Who are these two?

Did they try to ambush you?”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Yes, these two are Lu Ming and Huang Yueqing, elders from the Sky Martial Sect.

They joined forces to attack me here, but fortunately, I managed to kill them.”

“And what about Wan Qing?” Hua Qianwu curiously asked.

“This Wan Qing, he was just a pawn, used by Lu Ming and Huang Yueqing to carry out their plan.”

Lu Chuan shrugged with resignation, “Let’s continue searching for the Myriad Realms Bird, don’t mind these two anymore.

With them dead, there won’t be anyone to trouble me for a while.”

Hua Qianwu nodded slightly, still shaken, and said, “These two bastards really had the guts, choosing to strike here.”

“Luckily they didn’t succeed, otherwise, we would have had a big problem.”

“So, this is the one who was once the number one assassin in Flower City.

His strength, kind of average huh, no match for Lu Chuan at all.”

Gu Xiaosang looked at Lu Chuan and couldn’t help but remark, “He seems to have only inflicted a minor wound on you, the gap in strength is quite large.”

Hua Qianwu said helplessly, “It just goes to show that there are not many powerful figures in Flower City, which allowed this Lu Ming to make a name for himself.”

“Now, what I’m worried about is since this was all part of their scheme, whether the Myriad Realms Bird that Wan Qing spoke of actually exists or not.

I hope we didn’t come here for nothing.”

“Let’s keep looking, and if we don’t find anything, we might as well head back.”

Lu Chuan looked around, scanning the area, but still couldn’t spot the Myriad Realms Bird.

At that moment, Gu Xiaorou looked up into the sky, focusing intently on something.

She frowned slightly and said, “Look at the bird circling in the sky, is that the Myriad Realms Bird?”

Lu Chuan looked up and indeed saw a white bird circling in the sky with what appeared to be a flower atop its head.

However, after observing for a moment, Lu Chuan seemed to realize that the bird seemed to be fixated on the branch in his hand!
