Chapter 831 - 831 791 Lu Manor Changes Hands

831: Chapter 791: Lu Manor Changes Hands 831: Chapter 791: Lu Manor Changes Hands Everyone looked at Lu Chuan, their hearts filled with horror.

“Lu…Lu Chuan, what are you going to do to us now?”

“We’ve never been involved in any plots against you, we didn’t even know who you were before!”

“That’s right, I’ve only heard your name, this is the first time I’m seeing you in person.”

“I swear, I’ve never harbored any intention of harming you!”

The crowd watched Lu Chuan with trepidation, fearing that he would strike and annihilate them all.

Lu Chuan looked at everyone and revealed a gentle smile, “Calm down, I won’t be slaughtering you.”

“If I had wanted to take action against you, I wouldn’t have wasted words at the beginning.”

“The situation now is that I want you to remain, I can’t let the industries you have managed to be taken over by others.”

“However, all of you must be loyal to me, not to Lu Fusheng, understand?”

At these words, the crowd exchanged glances and heaved sighs of relief, feeling a weight lifted from their shoulders.

Lu Chuan continued to question the crowd: “How about it?

This is completely doable, right?”

“Young Master Lu, it’s true you are powerful, we have to admit that.”

“But if we follow you, and one day you are defeated by Lu Fusheng, what then?

At that time, our fates will be tied to yours, for better or worse!”

“That’s right, if Lu Fusheng finds out we’ve betrayed him, he will surely kill us all, without sparing anyone!”

The crowd was filled with terror, their hearts incredibly tense, knowing that the choice before them would determine their future paths.

Lu Chuan still smiled faintly and said, “My friends, there’s no need to worry.

You hardly have a choice.

If you don’t follow me, then naturally I won’t keep you around.”

Upon hearing this, the crowd accepted their fate, understanding that they had only this one choice.

“Since that’s the case…

we have no other choice, we will be loyal to you, follow your commands, and as for Lu Fusheng, we will have no further dealings with him.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, scanned the crowd, and said with a smile, “Well, that’s not too bad.”

“By the way, Young Master Lu, I heard that after the Lu Manor in Myriad Stars City was destroyed, the Dongfang family took over all its property.

Is this true or false?”

Lu Chuan nodded, “Of course it’s true.”

“Ah, what a pity, that was so much wealth, all gone.”

“No wonder Young Master Lu changed his attitude here, indeed, it should be like this.

Outsiders should not always take advantage, we are the true family.”

Everyone wore an expression of heartache.

Lu Chuan shrugged indifferently, “As for those properties and wealth, they are not important to me.

My goal is to kill Lu Fusheng and clear my father’s name, that is all.”

Everyone nodded their heads, indicating their support for Lu Chuan’s decision.

“So, in Forest City, are we the Lu family still enemies with the Dongfang family?”

Someone asked.

“Since you are now my power, you are allies with the Dongfang family, not enemies.”

“I see…

I understand.”

Just then, Lu Chuan saw Lu Baixuan slowly move to the side, taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention to him, he started to run, hastily trying to escape from there.

“Gentlemen, it’s time for you to show your worth, catch that man for me!”

“Yes!!”

The crowd rushed forward, running towards the direction of Lu Tianxuan.

This Lu Tianxuan was their declaration of allegiance, as well as an act of loyalty.

Soon, someone had pinned Lu Tianxuan to the ground; a few people restrained his shoulders and escorted him over.

“Young Master Lu, we’ve captured this kid for you!”

“Now, he’s all yours to deal with as you please—kill him.”

Lu Tianxuan, in a panic, looked up at the crowd and shouted, “How dare you!”

“Have you forgotten how my father treated you?

We are family, we conquered Forest City together, you can’t just say you’re going to kill me—how could you do this to my father?”

“I won’t lie, I’ve always disliked Lu Baixuan—for the sake of his own strength, he disregards human life.

Saying he lacks humanity is putting it lightly!”

“Lu Tianxuan, you should follow your father in death now.

If you had come of age, your father would have murdered countless people in the same manner, all to make you stronger.”

“Your existence in this world is a calamity!”

A mass of people surged forward – some swung their fists, others seized sticks, and yet others drew daggers from their waists.

After a short while, in utter despair, Lu Tianxuan was beaten to death by the crowd.

Immediately after, they turned their gaze to Lu Chuan.

“From today onward, you are our Manor Master, Young Master Lu.

From now on, we will follow your command and execute all that you order!”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Very well.”

He turned to Li Xunying and said, “Go back to the Dongfang Residence and bring Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang over.”

“Young Master Lu, do you plan to settle them here?”

“For the time being, they can stay here.

Dongfang Residence may be safe, but it’s not entirely foolproof.”

Li Xunying reminded him, “This place is not entirely foolproof either.”

“I know, but here, without a leader, and the lack of Martial Saints like Lu Baixuan, the various Martial Kings barely have the strength of Martial Emperors.

Compared to Dongfang Residence, this is much safer.”

Upon hearing this, Li Xunying nodded slightly and then turned to leave, “I will do as you say.”

Lu Chuan did not fully trust Dongfang Changzhi.

Naturally, it would be best if they could stay at Lu Manor.

Moreover, Lu Chuan didn’t want to see himself made into someone else’s stepping stone again.

Starting now, Lu Chuan would take one city after another, weakening the Lu family’s power while strengthening his own.

Otherwise, standing alone, his influence would always be too weak.

“Everyone, dispose of the body, don’t let it be an eyesore here.

From this day forth, the Lu Manor of Forest City is under my control, Lu Chuan.”

Upon hearing his words, the people hurried forward to clean up the body and the bloodstains.

At that moment, someone approached Lu Chuan and whispered, “Manor Master Lu, there’s something that might need your assistance.”

“What is it?

Go ahead.”

“It’s about the Xu family.

Their children have gone missing, and there are rumors that it was our Lu family’s doing.

As a result, they’ve begun to target us secretly in the business arena.”

“Recently, when I visited one of our manor’s shops to check on the revenue, I found out that the shop had been secretly sabotaged by the Xu family’s people.

But due to lack of evidence, no one dares to confront them outright.”

Looking curious, Lu Chuan asked, “Does the Xu family really have the audacity to provoke the Lu family?”

“Of course they wouldn’t dare to confront us openly, but it’s easy for them to play dirty tricks in secret.

Besides, with the Dongfang family’s influence in the city, our Lu Manor really can’t afford to get into an all-out feud with another family’s power.”
