Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 802 - 802 762 Meeting the City Lord

802: Chapter 762: Meeting the City Lord 802: Chapter 762: Meeting the City Lord Dongfang Changzhi grabbed Lu Chuan’s arm and persuaded him, “Young Master Lu, you have been traveling for two days, you must all be tired.

You should rest early tonight.”

“Tomorrow, I will personally take you to meet the City Lord.

He will definitely show me some respect and come out to meet you.”

“You can rest assured on that, you will definitely meet Wan Changdong!”

Lu Chuan took his arm back and said, “I appreciate your concern, but I want to go see him now to pay him a visit.”

“This… Alright, but if the people from Lu Manor see you, will there be no trouble?”

“Trouble, what trouble could there be?

Wasn’t Lu Wu transferred from here?”

“Right, you met him?”

Dongfang Cheng immediately said, “Uncle Changzhi, I forgot to write to you, Lu Wu has already died.”

“What?

Died?”

Dongfang Changzhi asked somewhat unexpectedly.

“Yes, he has died, right here in Myriad Stars City.”

“Moreover, he died at the hands of Lu Chuan.”

Dongfang Changzhi looked at Lu Chuan, his gaze becoming more solemn.

“You were actually able to kill Lu Wu.

You really are not simple.”

Lu Chuan looked at Dongfang Cheng and asked, “Are you coming with me?”

“Let’s go, I am not afraid of them.”

Dongfang Cheng said naturally.

“Then let’s go!”

Lu Chuan looked at Gu Xiaorou and said, “You rest here for now, I will be back later tonight.”

“Alright, but you have to be careful.”

“Don’t worry, go to sleep early and rest well.”

Gu Xiaorou nodded slightly.

Dongfang Cheng looked at the servants nearby and ordered, “Take good care of Miss Gu.

If there’s any negligence, I will not spare you!”

“Yes, young master!”

With that, Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng both walked out of the Dongfang Residence’s main gate.

Dongfang Changzhi looked at Gu Xiaorou and revealed a flattering smile, “Miss Gu, right?

Please come this way, we have already prepared the best guest room for you, with a beautiful environment and comfortable living.”

…

Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng walked on the streets in the sunset, heading towards the City Lord’s Mansion.

“Once we get to the Inner City, how will we go in?”

Lu Chuan looked at Dongfang Cheng.

“I will just show the Dongfang family’s token, we should be able to enter.”

“That sounds good, let’s go have a look.”

The two of them continued on the street and quickly arrived at the gate of the Inner City.

The city wall here was not very high, only about ten meters.

It looked like a jug fort.

Lu Chuan approached the gate and was stopped by the guard.

“Who goes there?”

“I am Dongfang Cheng, here to visit the City Lord.”

“Please go back, the City Lord is not seeing anyone today!”

“Isn’t he supposed to be hosting someone from the Lu family today?

How can it be that he is not seeing anyone?”

Lu Chuan continued to ask.

“Why the many questions?

Is it any of your business?”

The guard said arrogantly, not taking the two men in front of him seriously at all.

Dongfang Cheng immediately took out the Dongfang family’s token and showed it to the guard.

“I am from the Dongfang family, let me in.

I have business with the City Lord!”

“It doesn’t matter what token you show, the City Lord is not seeing anyone today, go back.”

Dongfang Cheng gritted his teeth, his face turning slightly red.

“What does that mean?

Do you not regard our Dongfang family highly—are you completely siding with the Lu family, is that it?”

“Sorry, I have nothing to say.”

Lu Chuan, feeling helpless, had to take out an envelope.

“How about this then, it’s a letter of recommendation written by City Lord Zhao Huangqian of Myriad Stars City, and he instructed me to hand it over to your City Lord once I arrived in Forest City.”

“Now that I am here, let me hand this envelope over to your City Lord; after he reads it, he should let us in.”

“Zhao Huangqian, City Lord Zhao?”

The guard muttered in confusion.

Then, he took the envelope.

“Since it is a recommendation from City Lord Zhao, I will deliver it to the City Lord.

After he has reviewed it, he will decide whether you can enter.”

Soon after, the guard opened the city gate and turned to enter the Inner City.

Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng stood at the entrance waiting.

After what seemed like a long time, the guard came out again, the envelope no longer in his hands.

“Gentlemen, please come in.

The City Lord is waiting for you inside.”

Dongfang Cheng smiled and retorted, “Didn’t they say he wasn’t seeing anyone today?

What’s the situation now?”

The guard clenched his teeth but could not refute and had to swallow his pride.

After Dongfang Cheng strutted in, the two men walked into the Inner City, where they soon saw a military camp not far ahead.

They could see many soldiers in armor vigorously training, their demeanors full of vigor and vitality.

Not far ahead, Lu Chuan saw the City Lord’s Mansion.

Here in the Inner City, the area in front of the City Lord’s Mansion was much quieter.

In Myriad Stars City or other cities, this was certainly not the case.

Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng quickly reached the mansion gate, which opened as the mansion’s servants waited to greet them.

“Are the two of you Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng?”

“Yes, indeed we are.”

Dongfang Cheng replied.

“Please follow me.

I am the caretaker of the City Lord’s Mansion, and I will take you to see the City Lord.”

Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng followed his steps towards the Council Hall.

“The City Lord was just meeting with someone from the Lu family.

It was not convenient to meet you, but since you have Zhao Huangqian’s letter, you can be granted special admission.”

The caretaker explained.

Lu Chuan could not help but remark, “This Zhao Huangqian still has some capabilities and status.”

They soon arrived at the doors of the Council Hall.

“Go inside, the City Lord is waiting for you there.”

Lu Chuan pushed open the doors and walked into the Council Hall.

There he saw City Lord Wan Changdong seated in the main seat, his gaze intense as he looked straight ahead.

“Are you Lu Chuan?”

His voice was deep, asking loudly.

“I am indeed Lu Chuan!”

Lu Chuan replied with confidence.

“Good, please take a seat.”

Lu Chuan sat down beside him.

“You are quite bold indeed, knowing I was meeting with the Lu family yet you dared to come.”

“Do you think I’m afraid of them?”

“Of course, who in the world is not afraid of the Lu family?”

Lu Chuan looked to Dongfang Cheng, saying, “Why don’t you speak a few words?”

Dongfang Cheng stood up, facing the City Lord, “Maybe not entirely.

While the Lu family is powerful, they aren’t invincible.

There are many who can deal with them.”

“But certainly not you two!”

Wan Changdong added.

“The game isn’t over yet, who wins and who loses, isn’t certain yet.” Dongfang Cheng continued.

“Dongfang Cheng, last time I saw you, you were just a kid.

Now you’ve grown enough to argue with me.”

Dongfang Cheng smiled, “People change, isn’t that normal?”

“Is it because you found a big brother to back you up that you speak so boldly now?

If you were here alone, would you still have the courage to speak to me this way?”

Suddenly, Lu Chuan spoke, “City Lord Wan, just after meeting us, you have gone all out.

Are you treating us as your enemies?”

Wan Changdong continued to inquire, “Lu Chuan, were you the one who dealt with the people from Black Clouds Camp?”

“You are well-informed, aren’t you?

You knew about last night’s incident by today.”

“Who allowed you to act?”

He challenged.

“I act as I please.

Do you see a problem with that?”
