742: Chapter 702: A Martial Saint Realm Expert_1 742: Chapter 702: A Martial Saint Realm Expert_1 Lu Meng’s face was very grave as he warned Lu Chuan with a heavy tone.

“He was already at the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm at the beginning of last year?”

Lu Meng nodded emphatically, “Yes, and he was only one step away from breaking through to the Martial Saint Realm.”

“This year, his arrival here suggests that he has already reached the Martial Saint Realm.”

“Lu Chuan, you are absolutely no match for him.

I can believe you can defeat Lu Wansheng, but against this Lu Wu, you can only admit defeat.”

“Moreover, he is naturally cruel and ruthless.

On the battlefield, enemies who hear his name, those with poor mental fortitude, they abandon their armor and flee on the spot.”

“Once, when contesting for territory with a rival family, he single-handedly annihilated thousands.

His weapon is a battle axe.”

“The battlefield was filled with severed limbs, rivers of blood, disgusting extremes of carnage.”

“If you lose to him, your end will be very miserable!”

Lu Chuan frowned slightly, “If he is a strong practitioner of the Martial Saint Realm, then indeed, I am not his opponent.”

Although blessed with Divine Fire, the stark difference in sheer power was there, and relying on external forces was hardly a way to bridge such a gap.

Unless Lu Chuan could break through the Nascent Soul Realm and successfully advance to the Spirit Splitting Realm, only then would he have the strength to fight Lu Wu evenly.

Beyond that, there was no other way.

Although he was just one step away from the Spirit Splitting Realm himself, it was often this last step that was the most difficult one.

Lu Chuan took a deep breath, “It seems the situation is quite dire.

The Lu family is really serious this time, sending such a monstrous genius.”

Lu Chuan couldn’t help but sigh.

“At thirty-three years old, breaking through to the Martial Saint Realm, this talent can only be described as terrifying,” Lu Meng added.

“So, you should realize you have already lost the big picture.

Either you run away or you meet your death.

Choose one,” Lu Meng said confidently.

Lu Chuan shook his head helplessly, “I choose neither.

I’m not completely defenseless.

Since the Lu family wants to be harsh with me, naturally, I won’t shy away from the challenge.”

“If you dare face him head-on, you’re courting death!”

“The downfall of the Dongfang Residence is inevitable this time.

If you’re smart, you’ll escape from here!”

“There will be other days ahead.

You’re not lacking in talent either.

It might be best to lie low and develop yourself; you could still stand a chance in the future.”

Lu Chuan looked at Lu Meng curiously and asked, “Are you giving me advice?”

“I’m not considering your wellbeing.

I’m just reminding you of what you should do now,” Lu Meng replied.

“I am your enemy; shouldn’t you provoke me and let me stubbornly fight Lu Wu?”

Lu Meng turned her head to the side, “Heh, I just think you’re pitiable.

Just a piece of advice.”

“Me, pitiable?

I’ve never considered myself pitiable.”

Lu Meng laughed and said, “Seen as a thorn in the side by your own kin, hunted down everywhere, your father disowned and living a life of downturn—doesn’t that make you pitiable?”

Lu Chuan looked intently at Lu Meng and said, “Let me remind you, the Kunlun Domain’s Lu family is not my kin.

They are my enemies!”

“Against my enemies, I never hold back!”

Lu Chuan clenched his fists and then turned to leave.

“Lu Chuan, run back to the secular world.

You grew up there from a young age; it’s the world that belongs to you.

The Kunlun Domain is not for you, you shouldn’t have intruded into this world”

“Lu Wu will kill you, this is your last chance!”

Lu Chuan walked out quickly, completely ignoring Lu Meng’s words.

Lu Meng watched Lu Chuan’s retreating figure, sighing helplessly.

“Such a stubborn mule!”

Lu Meng muttered under her breath and then laid down on the bed again.

After Lu Chuan went out, Dongfang Cheng hurried over to meet him.

“Young Master Lu, did you find out anything?”

“I extracted some information, that guy called Lu Wu, he might have already broken through to the Martial Saint Realm this year.”

“That is to say, the formidable enemy we’re about to face is one at the Martial Saint Realm.”

Dongfang Cheng took two steps back, nervously swallowing his saliva.

“Martial Saint Realm…

really?

It’s impossible for a Martial Saint Realm to come to Myriad Stars City.

Wouldn’t it be a waste of his time to come here?”

Lu Chuan helplessly shrugged his shoulders, “It seems Lu Manor doesn’t plan to give us a chance, and has directly sent a Martial Saint Realm strongman here to sweep everything away.”

“In the entire Myriad Stars City, there isn’t a single Martial Saint Realm expert.

His arrival here means no one can match him.”

Hearing what Lu Chuan said, Dongfang Cheng lowered his head, sinking into deep thought.

“We’re done for, this crisis is beyond our imagination.

If we don’t escape quickly, we might not have a chance.

Let’s flee for our lives!”

“There’s no need, we’re not completely out of options.”

Lu Chuan remained composed.

“Don’t overthink it.

Inside Myriad Stars City, all the major clan powers have joined Lu Manor’s camp.

Now we are alone and weak, how can we fight against them?”

“Lu family is an established power in Kunlun Domain, with just a little effort, they can have a large number of followers.

In this respect, we cannot compare!”

Lu Chuan’s expression grew solemn.

He had two key ways to turn the situation around at the moment.

One was to break through to the Spirit Splitting Realm, and the other was to unseal the Soul Terminating Sword.

Completing either of these tasks would give him the power to change the situation and defeat Lu Wu.

But if he couldn’t accomplish either, then there would truly be no chance!

Now, he was running out of time, and external enemies were eyeing them covetously, ready to pounce at any moment.

In such a critical moment, Lu Chuan had no choice but to take a gamble.

“Give me some time, I will turn all of this around!”

Lu Chuan quickly walked towards his guest room.

Dongfang Cheng hurriedly followed, “Young Master Lu, what are you planning to do?

Do we still have a chance?”

“Or should we just run away?

That’s the safest option.”

“The enemy is too strong, we’re not their match.”

Dongfang Cheng kept talking in a flustered manner as he followed Lu Chuan who seemed calm by comparison.

At that moment, Dongfang Xun walked over.

“Uncle?”

“Little Cheng, have you heard about the situation outside?

Hurry up and pack, and leave Myriad Stars City.”

“Uncle, what about you?”

“I…

Of course, I will stay to protect our assets, to fight for the Dongfang family until the last moment.”

“No, Uncle, come with us!”

Dongfang Xun slightly shook his head, “It can’t be done, one of us must stay here to take charge.

Otherwise, if all of the Dongfang family members scatter, wouldn’t we be handing over our inheritance on a silver platter?”

“No matter what, I must make the Lu family pay a price, they are too arrogant!” Dongfang Xun said with a firm tone.

Dongfang Cheng sighed helplessly; turning back to look at Lu Chuan, he realized that Lu Chuan had already walked away.

After returning to the courtyard, Lu Chuan took a deep breath.

The only chance he had now was a cultivation method he had previously devised.

The Spiritual Energy from the Divine Tree branch was tremendous.

Ordinary people who rashly absorbed it would be at risk of exploding and dying.

To put it simply, this copious Spiritual Energy could cause damage to the human body.

If he could manage to overload his absorption of the Spiritual Energy of the Divine Tree branch while allowing the Nine Heavens Profound Fire to suffuse his body and repair it, he might be able to achieve a balance, greatly enhancing the speed at which he absorbed Spiritual Energy.

This was extremely risky, but Lu Chuan had no choice but to stake everything on this one attempt!
