Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 824 - 824 784 Torment

824: Chapter 784: Torment 824: Chapter 784: Torment Lu Baixuan picked up the long knife in his hand and viciously stabbed it into his own abdomen.

He was determined to die, just so he wouldn’t fall into Lu Chuan’s hands.

Otherwise, he would inevitably have to endure a brutal beating and interrogation, being forced to reveal whatever he could.

Seeing this, Lu Chuan shouted angrily, “Want to die?

In your dreams!”

Li Xunying quickly made a move and snatched the long knife from Lu Baixuan’s hand.

However, it was too late, the blood had already stained his clothes, and the bleeding was uncontrollable.

Any hesitation could lead to bleeding out and death.

At that moment, Lu Chuan swiftly raised his left hand, gathering Nine Heavens Profound Fire in his palm.

He then pressed his left hand onto Lu Baixuan’s chest.

Boom!!

The flames surged into his body instantly, and the Nine Heavens Profound Fire quickly reached the wound, visibly healing the gash in his abdomen completely.

This scene left Wan Changdong utterly shocked as he witnessed it.

He walked toward Lu Chuan, looking at him with confusion and asked, “What…what did you do?

Such a serious injury healed instantly, it’s simply unbelievable!”

He exclaimed in astonishment, his gaze towards Lu Baixuan also carrying a hint of pity.

At this time, Lu Baixuan looked at Lu Chuan and roared angrily, “Bastard, what have you done!”

He roared in anger.

Failing to die, his heart was instantly filled with panic.

And the healing ability Lu Chuan displayed filled him with terror.

His eyes gradually shifted from anger to fear as he looked at Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan grasped his left wrist and then swung his sword down.

Swish!!!

Lu Baixuan’s entire left hand was chopped off by the sword, and blood spurted out from the stump.

“Ahhh!!!!!”

Lu Baixuan let out a heart-wrenching scream, the intense pain causing his body to tremble violently, and his forehead covered in cold sweat that dripped down his face.

“What exactly do you want to do?”

He gritted his teeth as he looked at Lu Chuan, now devoid of his earlier arrogance and anger, instead filled with sheer terror.

Under this healing power, Lu Chuan could subject him to deep levels of torture, a level of torment that was absolutely the cruelest in the world.

Some people, when subjected to extreme torture over a long period, even start to feel their pain diminish.

But the Nine Heavens Profound Fire not only healed the wounds, but it also repaired nerve damage.

Meaning, the first and the hundredth cut that Lu Chuan inflicted on Lu Baixuan would both cause the same extreme agony.

Lu Baixuan had lived a dashing life, fought countless battles, and he thought he had an air that could coolly deal with anything.

However, today, facing Lu Chuan, he no longer had his previous arrogance, nor did he retain his former confidence.

He lay on the ground, looking at Lu Chuan with a tight face, the pain gradually faded, allowing him to catch his breath.

He looked at Lu Chuan and asked, “What exactly do you want to do?”

“I ask you, the evil spirit that possessed Wan Changdong, where did it come from?”

“You want to know that?

Don’t dream about it!”

Lu Chuan let out a cold laugh, “It seems I went a bit too far with that last slash.

I should have chopped off your fingers one by one.”

“No, actually, I should slice off each joint one after another.

Would you like to try that?”

Lu Baixuan’s eyelids were trembling, his breath held, daring not to speak.

“You certainly wouldn’t dare, looking at you, I can already tell.”

“Now, tell me the truth, or else, I’ll have to take action against you.”

“Lu Chuan, as for what you’re asking, I honestly don’t know.

I was brought out from the headquarters.”

“They gave me a jade vessel and said that whenever I wanted to enhance my strength, I could open it, release the evil spirit inside.

The evil spirit comes with its own Spiritual Energy, and after parasitizing a human body, fusion occurs, leading to a breakthrough in strength.”

“Moreover, the evil spirit will aid its host in battle within the host’s body, saving the host’s life at critical moments.”

“And then?”

Lu Chuan continued to ask.

“Additionally…

the evil spirit has been sealed for ages.

Once released, it lacks the ability to move and needs to feed on human Divine Souls to gain nourishment and mobility.”

“So you see…

I had Wan Changdong capture quite a number of people.

The Divine Souls of young people are the purest, allowing the evil spirit to recover faster when it feeds on them.”

“That’s the situation.

As for the rest, I really don’t know anything else.

If you truly want to understand the situation, then head to headquarters and figure it out for yourself.”

Lu Chuan patted his chest, smiling as he said, “Are you sure that’s all you know?”

Lu Baixuan hurriedly replied in a panic, “That’s all I know, truly!

I haven’t lied to you!”

His eyes frantically darted towards Lu Chuan, terrified that Lu Chuan wouldn’t believe him and would torture him further.

“Just kill me.

Having told you so much, I’m dead if I return to Lu Manor anyway.

It’s better to finish it here!”

Lu Chuan stood up, turned to Li Xunying, and said, “Take this guy back with us, no rush to kill him.”

Li Xunying, puzzled, asked, “What’s the use of keeping this guy?

Just finish him off.”

Lu Baixuan also asked, “Lu Chuan, what do you plan to do by keeping me?”

“Letting you die now would be letting you off easy.

You can die after I’ve wiped out Lu Manor.

It won’t be late then.”

Lu Baixuan’s heart shook, and he stood frozen in place.

“Lu Chuan, you want to wipe out Lu Manor?

You can’t do this!”

“That’s my life’s work, my efforts in developing Forest City up to this point.

What gives you the right to destroy my life’s work?”

“Lu Chuan, those are people related to you by blood.

Can you really go through with this?

Even if the blood relation is distant, they’re still your clansmen!”

He shouted loudly, as if trying to reverse Lu Chuan’s decision.

“Enough with the nonsense.

Why didn’t you all say such things earlier?

What’s the use of saying it now?”

“Save it.

Take him back, and bring him directly to the Dongfang Residence!”

Hearing this, Li Xunying nodded quickly and said, “Understood!”

Immediately after, Lu Chuan turned to Wan Changdong and said, “Let’s go.

We’re heading back to Forest City.”

“Sure, no problem, Young Master Lu.

I can’t thank you enough for sparing my life.

From now on, in Forest City, if there’s any way I can be of service to you, just say the word!”

Lu Baixuan lifted his head to look at Wan Changdong and roared out, “You traitor!”

“You used me, and as soon as you broke through to the Martial Saint Realm, you switched sides, you damned beast!”

He cursed furiously through gritted teeth.

Wan Changdong responded with a shrug of resignation, “Big Brother Lu, you should be clear about the current situation, right?”

“Young Master Lu is a force in the Martial Saint Realm, and so is his friend.

You expect me, someone who just made a breakthrough, to take on two Martial Saint Realm powers?”

“Forget it, let’s be real.

Any smart person would know how to choose under these circumstances.

The decision I made is the right one.”

“I have no reason to die for your sake.”
