Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 738 - 738 698 The Stubborn One_1

738: Chapter 698: The Stubborn One_1 738: Chapter 698: The Stubborn One_1 Lu Meng simply didn’t believe Lu Chuan’s words, adamantly assuming that Lu Chuan was just bluffing.

Lu Chuan couldn’t be bothered to waste too many words on her; if he wanted to prove himself, it was very simple.

Lu Chuan took out a small black box from his embrace, and upon opening the box, he tilted it so that Lu Meng could take a careful look.

“Do you recognize it?”

“This is… Earth Spirit Ash?

Where did you get this from?”

She suddenly looked up, her face filled with surprise as she stared at Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan put the Earth Spirit Ash back into his pocket, “Didn’t I just say?

The Lu family knew I was looking for these items, so they specifically collected them to place in the auction.”

“Of course, I got it from the auction.”

Lu Chuan said this very naturally, as if there was no problem at all.

Lu Meng quickly sat up, looked towards Lu Chuan, and asked, “Did you really go to the auction today?”

“Do I have a reason to lie to you?”

“Then what?

The Lu family didn’t lay a hand on you?

Or is it that your ability to flee is so strong that you managed to escape back here?”

She touched her chin, pondered a bit, and then continued, “However, judging from the last time you caught me, your speed is indeed very fast.

It seems you must have grabbed the treasure and hurriedly fled back here.”

But very soon, she furrowed her brows, sensing that something was amiss.

“That’s not right.

How could the Lu family let you escape unscathed?

Could it be they really couldn’t catch up to you?”

Lu Chuan waved his hand and said with a smile, “Stop guessing, I’ll tell you the specifics.”

“The actual situation was like this: not only did the Lu family try to stop me from leaving, but they also cleared the venue, planning to capture me thoroughly.”

“As for me, naturally, I had no plans to run away.”

“After all, my opponent was just Lu Yan…”

Lu Meng suddenly stood up, with her hands on her hips, she said loudly, “Impossible!

There’s no way you could be Lu Yan’s match!”

“Lu Yan must have beaten you to a pulp!”

She shouted this out loud.

Clearly, she had great confidence in Lu Yan’s strength.

Lu Chuan helplessly shrugged his shoulders, “Lu Yan is dead, burnt alive by me, a most miserable death, too bad you weren’t there to see it.”

Lu Meng immediately whirled around, screaming, “Impossible, you’re lying!

Lu Yan couldn’t possibly die by your hand, you’re talking nonsense!”

“Really?

The whole Myriad Stars City will soon know about this, I have no need to lie to you; you will know the truth soon enough.”

“Impossible, Lu Yan, he’s a Martial Emperor Realm powerhouse!”

Seeing her so stubborn, Lu Chuan said helplessly, “Do you know a martial general from the Lu family?

His name is Lu Tianming.”

Lu Meng suddenly looked up at Lu Chuan, and asked, “Lu Tianming, do you also know him?”

“That’s right, he’s just another one of my defeated underlings,” he replied casually.

Lu Meng involuntarily stepped back two paces, “Lu Tianming… he died by your hand?”

“You didn’t know?

It’s right that you wouldn’t know; such a disgrace for the Lu family, they probably wouldn’t tell too many people.”

“So, Lu Yan, who’s not as strong as Lu Tianming, on what ground could he be my opponent?”

Lu Meng sat down on the bed, her expression showing utter dejection.

“Lu Yan…

really…

died by your hand?”

She began to waver.

The fact that Lu Chuan was standing before her alive was the best evidence that Lu Yan had failed.

“Then why did you come back to tell me this?”

Lu Meng asked, not understanding.

“I want you to know, the Lu family’s dominance is over; they are bound to perish sooner or later.”

“If you cooperate with me properly, I might just spare your life.”

“What do you want me to cooperate with?”

Lu Meng looked up at Lu Chuan.

“First, tell me the specific layout of Lu Manor in Myriad Stars City, and most importantly, where does Lu Wansheng live?”

Lu Meng took a deep breath, “The Lu Family Manor is located in the Willow Forest to the north of the city, covering a large area.

You’ll see it when you go there.”

“Lu Wansheng’s residence is in the central area, next to a small lake.”

“What else do you want to ask?”

She looked up at Lu Chuan and asked, “Do you really think you can stand against the Lu family?”

She still couldn’t imagine how to topple the Lu family, this colossal entity.

“If you were to face the Lu family’s iron cavalry on your own, you wouldn’t last a second.”

She said confidently.

“I’m not planning to have a showdown with so many of them.

The Lu family has been overbearing for so many years and made quite a few enemies; I’m not alone in this.”

Lu Chuan looked at her and continued to ask, “Have you received any messages from the headquarters recently?”

“Not for the time being, but some time ago, there seemed to be a message that came back, telling us to stay away from you.”

“Just to stay as far from you as possible, didn’t say much else.”

Lu Meng shrugged helplessly, “It was just a suggestion, so none of us took it very seriously.”

“It seems that after you killed Lu Tianming, the news indeed reached the headquarters and made them very wary of you.”

Lu Meng sighed helplessly, “It looks like now it’s too late.”

Lu Chuan scratched his head, “In that case, Lu Wansheng might really not make a move against me, after all, the headquarters had warned him.”

“Hah, don’t even dream about it, Lu Yan is Lu Wansheng’s son.

He will definitely make a move against you.

Just you wait, Lu Wansheng’s strength is unparalleled in Myriad Stars City!”

She said seriously, as though warning Lu Chuan.

“Then bring it on, I won’t be afraid.”

Lu Meng sighed helplessly again; she was beginning to feel curious about this Lu Chuan in front of her.

Just how strong was he to seem utterly fearless?

“You just focus on eating, I’ll be leaving.

When the Lu Manor is gone, I’ll consider letting you out.”

Lu Chuan turned and walked out.

He naturally wouldn’t let Lu Meng go easily, but if she could offer some help, then he could spare her life.

Lu Chuan didn’t know much about the Kunlun Domain; if he wanted more in-depth knowledge, he would either have to gather it from Dongfang Cheng or find other ways to learn.

If he could get some information from Lu Meng, that would be ideal.

After leaving, Lu Chuan headed toward the guesthouse courtyard.

Now, Lu Chuan was only missing one last material, whether it could be found in Myriad Stars City was still uncertain.

After returning to the courtyard, Gu Xiaorou hurried over and asked, “Lu Chuan, how did it go?”

“Did you get the material?”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, came over, and said, “I’ve got the material, now there’s only one last material left.”

“Let’s keep looking, it shouldn’t take long to find it, after all, I’ve already got the hardest of the materials needed for breaking the seal.”

The hardest of the materials, naturally, was the Divine Fire, and Lu Chuan had obtained two types of Divine Fire back in the secular world.

Therefore, the progress of breaking the seal was now considerably easier.

At that moment, Dongfang Cheng’s figure approached the courtyard.

He quickly walked toward Lu Chuan and said, “Young Master Lu, someone has come to visit and is asking to see you.”
