787: Chapter 747 The Annihilation of the City Guards_1 787: Chapter 747 The Annihilation of the City Guards_1 Lu Chuan’s words plunged Li Xunying into deep thought.

He lowered his head, hesitating for a long time.

At this moment, two attendants walked over and came to Lu Chuan’s side.

“Young Master Lu, how do you plan to deal with this man?”

The two looked at Lu Chuan with curiosity.

Lu Chuan, however, gazed at Li Xunying and asked again, “I am giving you one last chance.”

“You’d better seize it!”

Li Xunying looked up at Lu Chuan, “I can join your command, but that’s all, I can also help you with tasks.”

Lu Chuan emphasized his tone and said again, “Kneel down, beg for mercy.

Depending on your attitude, if you perform well enough, I shall spare your life and give you this opportunity!”

The two attendants were stunned.

Was Lu Chuan turning an enemy into a friend?

Li Xunying fell silent, not responding for a while.

He seemed to be weighing many things; he had roamed Heavenly Yin Mountain as an evil spirit for who knows how many years.

For all these years, there was but one obsession in his heart, to let his subordinates live again and accomplish revenge!

Yet now, his plan was on the brink of collapse.

This appeared to be his last chance.

If he chose not to compromise, his fate would likely be summed up by death alone.

He looked at Lu Chuan, took a deep breath, “Release me.”

Lu Chuan released his wrist, letting him down.

He dusted off his clothes and stood up, facing Lu Chuan.

In the end, he swallowed his pride and bent his knees, kneeling before Lu Chuan.

After kneeling, he lowered his head, not daring to look at Lu Chuan, and said gravely, “Please spare my life, I admit my mistake…”

Lu Chuan shook his head slightly.

“I don’t see sincerity; it seems like you’re just humoring me.”

“I…

I am not!”

“Then show me your sincerity.”

Li Xunying took a deep breath, moved his knees forward two steps, looked up at Lu Chuan, and spoke again, “I was wrong, Young Master Lu, please spare my life.

I still have goals to achieve.

As long as I reach my goals, you can kill me anytime.

I can’t die now!”

“Please, I can’t die now!”

“My brothers died with their eyes open; they are all watching, expecting me to seek vengeance.

You can’t kill me now; I can’t face them!”

Lu Chuan continued, “That’s more sincere, but I still feel you’re trying to use me.”

“I’m keeping you to use you, not the other way around.”

Li Xunying hugged Lu Chuan’s legs, earnestly saying, “From today onwards, I am your enforcer.

Whatever you command, I shall follow without any second thoughts!”

“Of course, I must also fulfill my objective, which is vengeance.

Otherwise, all of this is meaningless!”

Lu Chuan patted his shoulder, “Stand up.

I’ll pretend I didn’t hear what you claimed earlier.

From now on, you do whatever I say, understand?”

“Your subordinate understands.”

At that moment, the two attendants walked over, looking at Lu Chuan nervously.

“Young Master Lu, this… this person is the murderer who killed the City Lord’s son…

if we befriend him, how do we explain to the City Lord?”

The attendant in white asked anxiously.

Lu Chuan pondered for a moment, then said, “Li Xunying can conceal himself; the City Lord won’t discover him for a while.”

“But what if he is discovered?

Then the City Lord will surely consider us enemies!”

The white-clad attendant said in a panicked tone.

Lu Chuan still seemed nonchalant.

“Who in Myriad Stars City can stand against the Dongfang family now?”

“Well…

the City Lord is indeed no match, but if it comes to a desperate struggle, the losses would still be substantial.”

Lu Chuan, impatient, said, “Stop the nonsense.

I’ve made my decision; let it be so.

Now let’s head down the mountain.”

“Alright, big brother, make sure to hide yourself well.”

Li Xunying glanced at the white-robed attendant and said, “Do I really need you to remind me?”

“Alright, consider it unsaid.”

The white-robed attendant heaved a helpless sigh.

As the four prepared to descend the mountain together, suddenly a figure came into their view.

This person hurried over, moving extremely fast, as if he was fleeing from something.

Soon, the man appeared before Lu Chuan.

The moment he saw Lu Chuan, he ran over in panic.

“Young Master Lu, are you Young Master Lu?”

Lu Chuan called out, “What do you want with me?”

“Young Master Lu!

It’s really you, Young Master Lu, I finally found you!”

He hurried over quickly.

“Young Master Lu, there’s big trouble, a great disaster is upon us, Myriad Stars City is in trouble!”

Lu Chuan grabbed his shoulder, calming him down.

“Calm down and tell me, what happened?”

“It’s like this, a group from Lu Manor suddenly burst out and started attacking Myriad Stars City; they encountered the City Guards on the way, and the City Guards were annihilated, blood flowed like rivers, corpses strewn everywhere!”

“The City Guards couldn’t hold them off, they continued their advance towards Myriad Stars City, intent on breaking into the city!”

“Young Master Lu, the Dongfang family has already sent people out to engage the enemy, but it’s uncertain how long they can hold on.”

“If even the City Guards are no match, how long can the Dongfang family’s forces resist?”

At this moment, the two attendants looked at each other, both with tense expressions on their faces.

Being core members of the Dongfang family, they naturally were very concerned about the family’s safety.

“Young Master Lu, let’s hurry back, this is not a place to stay for long.”

Lu Chuan turned his head to look at Li Xunying and asked, “How did it come to this result?”

“I’ve said it, the Shadow Kill Army is formidable, many of them possess Martial Emperor Realm strength, and they are seasoned and well-coordinated in battle; ordinary City Guards couldn’t possibly be their opponents.”

“Therefore, from the beginning, I had this confidence.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, he too was surprised that the City Guards were so easily defeated, not standing a chance at all.

This gap in strength, he feared, was a bit too large.

Lu Chuan sighed helplessly, “Next, we’ll go down the mountain, and hurry back to the city; otherwise, I’m afraid there will be trouble.”

“Once you get there, can you suppress those people?”

“Of course, I can, but they’ve already made a grave mistake, the people of Myriad Stars City will not let this go easily.”

“Let’s get over there first.”

Lu Chuan and the four others, along with the messenger, descended the mountain together.

Arriving at the foot of the mountain, Lu Chuan came to where the horses were hidden and mounted a steed.

The white-robed attendant took Li Xunying, and the grey-robed attendant took the messenger.

The five of them rode towards Myriad Stars City together.

Under the cover of night, Lu Chuan and his companions raced forward with torches held high.

Not long after they left Heavenly Yin Mountain, Lu Chuan, who was riding his horse, smelled a pungent stench of blood.

The scent was strong and repulsive, as if it were freshly spilled blood.

Lu Chuan slowed the horse’s pace and swept the torch downward, and to his horror, saw clusters of corpses arrayed haphazardly on the ground.

“These…

these are all City Guards!”

“It’s too terrible, their deaths are too awful.”

“Let’s go quickly, we don’t have much time, we must get back to Myriad Stars City as soon as possible!”
