763: Chapter 723 Stubborn Lu Family_1 763: Chapter 723 Stubborn Lu Family_1 Having understood the importance of soul fragments, Lu Chuan decided to visit Heavenly Yin Mountain outside the city.

At the mass burial mound there, evil spirits were numerous, so he should be able to collect quite a few.

However, there was also a large group of mountain bandits guarding Heavenly Yin Mountain, and it would not be easy for him to break through.

If he had to deal with wave after wave of mountain bandits, it would probably cause a significant delay.

In the end, Lu Chuan still thought of the Lu family.

When he had first arrived in Myriad Stars City, Lu Chuan was stopped and robbed by mountain bandits, who were incredibly bold and arrogant.

The reason was that they had the support of the Lu family behind them.

Not only did the family provide them with equipment and food, but they also openly protected their existence.

The sole reason was to covertly target the Dongfang family.

Lu Chuan understood that if he wanted to go to Heavenly Yin Mountain, he would undoubtedly encounter bandits!

So, he planned to make a trip to Lu Manor first.

He would clear the path for himself first, and after making adequate preparations, he’d head to Heavenly Yin Mountain.

He looked out of the window, noting that it was getting late, so he decided to visit the Lu family the next day.

…

The next morning, Lu Chuan got up early and saw Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang practicing in the courtyard as usual.

Even with their utmost diligence, the path to catching up to Lu Chuan was still endlessly long.

Even so, they hadn’t given up on their cultivation.

“Lu Chuan, are you going out?

Where do you plan to go?”

Gu Xiaorou stopped her movements and approached Lu Chuan.

“I’m going to Lu Manor for a bit, there’s something I need to discuss with them.”

Gu Xiaorou quickly asked, “You’re not planning to attack Lu Manor and annihilate them as well, are you?”

Gu Xiaosang ran over, excitedly shouting, “That would be great, just destroy them, otherwise they will surely not sit still and will target us again!”

Lu Chuan shrugged, “I’ll go talk to them first.

If they don’t cooperate with me, then there’s no need for me to show any mercy.”

“If I casually annihilate a family, wouldn’t I become a great devil in the eyes of the people in Myriad Stars City?”

“That’s true too, so what do you plan to discuss with them?”

“I want to go to Heavenly Yin Mountain outside the city; it’s infested with mountain bandits.

Remember the group we encountered when we arrived?”

Gu Xiaorou nodded slightly, “That’s right, they were able to act so brazenly on the outskirts of the city only because they were sponsored by the Lu family.”

Gu Xiaosang clenched her fists with resentment and said, “Those bandits truly deserve to die!

We should bring people from the Dongfang family and exterminate them directly!”

Lu Chuan smiled and said, “Wiping out a group of mountain bandits doesn’t require such an impressive display of force.

As long as the Lu family doesn’t interfere, I alone am enough.

You two continue your cultivation here; I’ll be back after going out for a while.”

“Alright, then take care of yourself.”

Gu Xiaorou instructed.

Lu Chuan nodded and left Dongfang Residence.

This time, he still took several followers from the Dongfang family with him to Lu Manor.

Otherwise, going alone would seem a bit weak.

Upon arriving at the entrance of Lu Manor in the north of the city, the two guards saw Lu Chuan’s figure and immediately shuddered.

The other passersby stopped in their tracks upon seeing this.

Lu Chuan’s personal visit to Lu Manor was definitely a major spectacle for them!

In no time, a crowd had gathered around.

Lu Chuan walked towards the gate’s guards and said, “Open the gate, I need to find someone inside.”

The guard didn’t know what to say at the moment and nervously swallowed.

He wanted to stop Lu Chuan, but he was also afraid for his life.

Lu Chuan’s aura was so overpowering that neither of them dared to say much.

Immediately, one of them opened the gate and said respectfully, “Please, come in.”

Lu Chuan walked in with an air of composure.

The other passers-by looked at each other with blank faces, clueless about the purpose of Lu Chuan’s visit to Lu Manor.

Upon reaching the courtyard of the Lu family, Lu Chuan glanced around, observing the typical Su-style garden that exuded both a simple elegance and a luxurious vibe.

Lu Chuan followed the stone-paved path toward the residence ahead, just in time to see two little boys playing in the yard.

The two boys chased each other back and forth but stopped in their tracks upon seeing Lu Chuan.

Upon recognizing him, they both reacted as if they had seen a ghost, hurriedly turning to flee with cries of panic.

“It’s Lu Chuan!

It’s Lu Chuan!”

Their loud shouts quickly attracted the people of Lu Manor to gather around.

In no time at all, easily a hundred people had gathered, surrounding Lu Chuan.

“Lu Chuan!

It’s actually you!

What right do you have to be here?”

“The seventh day after Lu Wu’s death has not passed, what do you want coming to our door?”

“You are not welcome here!”

“You actually have the audacity to come to our Lu Manor, don’t you know we are like fire and water now?”

Lu Chuan turned and gave the speaker a glare, the words having been uttered by an elder who was instantly frightened into silence by Lu Chuan’s stare.

“If we are like fire and water, then wouldn’t it be right for me to kill all of you?”

At these words, the crowd instinctively stepped back, looking at Lu Chuan with frightened faces, completely panicked.

At that moment, Lu Wansheng hurried out wearing white clothes and a white headband.

After he came out, he stood before Lu Chuan, sizing him up.

“You…

what are you doing at our Lu Manor?”

He asked somewhat nervously.

He knew just how powerful Lu Chuan was now, and that they were no match for him.

But this did not change the fact that they were sworn enemies.

“I suggest you watch your tone when you speak to me, or else, I might really kill all of you!”

“Don’t think I can’t do it.

If I could obliterate the Qin Residence, what stops me from doing the same to you?”

“Lu Wansheng, you are just a Martial Emperor Realm Grade 5, is this the attitude you should have when you see me?”

In the Kunlun Domain, the strong reign supreme, an ironclad rule.

Lu Wansheng could not help but slightly lower his head, his attitude becoming much more submissive.

“Let’s be direct.

You’re looking for me, what for?”

The rest of the people watched Lu Chuan nervously, afraid that he had come to settle scores.

Lu Chuan looked at Lu Wansheng and asked, “Is your Lu family sponsoring a group of mountain bandits outside the city?”

Lu Wansheng’s eyes darted about, and he shook his head vigorously, “I’ve never heard of what you’re talking about.

What mountain bandits, what bandits, I really don’t know.”

“Nonsense!

You dare to say you don’t know again?”

“Young Master Lu, you must have been misled by the bandits’ lies.

They will say anything; they’re probably just using our Lu family’s name to embolden themselves, you must not take it seriously.”

Lu Chuan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he walked toward Lu Wansheng.

Lu Wansheng, suppressed by Lu Chuan’s aura, began to step back in line with Lu Chuan’s approach.

“I…

I’m telling the truth, we really don’t know anything about these bandits.”

Lu Chuan snorted coldly, “How about this, if I find evidence of you colluding with the bandits, I will annihilate your Lu Manor, how does that sound?”

Lu Wansheng swallowed nervously, “Lu Chuan, you’ve really got the wrong idea, there’s absolutely nothing of the sort.

The bandits claim to be associated with us, that’s all their wishful thinking, attaching themselves to us without our consent.

Our Lu family, no matter our situation, would not stoop to collusion with bandits.”
