Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 856 - 856 816 Ending Life

856: Chapter 816: Ending Life 856: Chapter 816: Ending Life Li Xunying charged over and intercepted a figure, starting an intense battle.

With one less, the three pursuers still put considerable pressure on Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan took several steps back, casting a glance to the side, he saw Li Xunying injure one of the clones badly, nearly crippling it.

Duan Qianluo’s power was formidable indeed when she dispersed into four clones to gang up on one person, making it very difficult to deal with.

But if her combat power was dispersed, the effect was greatly diminished.

After one clone was killed, Li Xunying quickly pursued, closing in to about a hundred meters from Lu Chuan.

“Big brother, I’m here to help you!”

The three clones turned back to look at Li Xunying and immediately scolded angrily, “Bastard!

We agreed on one-on-one!”

Lu Chuan looked at him, said disdainfully, “I agreed on one-on-one with Wan Changdong, not with you.

Stop talking nonsense.

You’re definitely going to die today!”

Lu Chuan advanced with his sword, starting to exert more pressure.

Lu Chuan and Li Xunying teamed up, two against three, and the situation instantly turned around.

Lu Chuan and Li Xunying coordinated their attacks, forcing Duan Qianluo to keep retreating in distress.

She even had no time to curse as she was busy resisting their assaults.

Two Martial Saint Realm cultivators were naturally stronger than one Martial Saint Realm alone.

Moreover, Duan Qianluo had dispersed her power, some of which Li Xunying had taken down alone.

Now, she basically had no chance of winning.

Swish!!!

The three clones merged into one, transforming back to Duan Qianluo’s true form.

She reappeared and retreated over ten meters, gasping for breath, her condition very poor.

In the distance, the severely injured Wan Changdong, who barely clung to life, suddenly felt a chill in his heart upon seeing this scene.

If even Duan Qianluo could not stand against them, then they were thoroughly defeated.

Now, not only could he not retain his position as City Lord, but he also risked his very life.

This outcome was unbearable for him.

But helpless, this was the path he had chosen, and he could only silently accept it.

Under the relentless assault of Lu Chuan and Li Xunying, Duan Qianluo gradually fell back and gradually lost the ability to fight.

After retreating a distance, he knelt on one knee, gasping for breath.

He had completely lost the will to fight.

He looked up at Lu Chuan and hurriedly clasped his hands, “I admit defeat, I surrender!”

“Please spare my life, I realize my mistake.”

He started to beg for mercy, completely devoid of the will to fight.

Lu Chuan approached him, looked down into his eyes, and said, “So you admit defeat just like that?

Weren’t you quite capable just now?”

“That was before, but now I realize I’m no match for you.

The upper echelons sent me here, and that was a miscalculation.

They should have sent someone stronger, perhaps they underestimated your rate of growth.”

Lu Chuan shook his head dismissively, “My growth rate is average, but you guys are too lazy.

Sending just you to deal with me?

You really didn’t take me seriously.”

Lu Chuan stepped forward, grabbed Duan Qianluo by the throat, and demanded, “Tell me, who are you?

Who sent you?”

“I…

I am from the Ten Thousand Tigers Sect, I was commanded by the sect leader to come after you.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, then continued, “People from the Ten Thousand Tigers Sect?

Why did you target me, or rather, who instructed you to target me?”

“I don’t know, only the sect leader knows whose orders these are.

Both the sect leader and I are just following orders, and as for the Divine Tree branch, we definitely couldn’t have kept it.

If I could take the Divine Tree branch back, I surely couldn’t have kept it for myself.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “It seems that many people are after this object.”

“Please spare me, I will go back and tell the sect leader that I will no longer make a move against you.

You keep the Divine Tree branch and cultivate well, then kill those who want to deal with you.

I am just a minor character who acts on orders.”

“How could I possibly spare you, you, who wanted to put me to death?

Of course, I won’t let you go back.”

“If you go back and report my situation, wouldn’t I be at a disadvantage again?”

“Since that’s the case, I definitely can’t let you go.

This Forest City is where your life ends.”

Upon hearing this, Duan Qianluo was stunned on the spot, his whole person dumbfounded.

“I have already admitted defeat, why won’t you let me go?

Keep a line when doing things, so that we can meet in the future, don’t you know that?

I’m not just any ordinary person; I belong to a sect.”

“If you kill me, the Ten Thousand Tigers Sect behind me will absolutely not let you off!”

He continued to shout, obviously, his backing of the Ten Thousand Tigers Sect gave him a great deal of confidence.

Lu Chuan looked at him and sneered, “Do you think I’d be afraid of your Ten Thousand Tigers Sect?

If they want to deal with me, then let them come.

Even if I let you go, would that stop them from taking action?”

Duan Qianluo’s face immediately darkened, his heart filled with immense discomfort, looking at Lu Chuan with nothing but a deep sigh left.

“Li Xunying, take care of this guy and search him.

Find anything he has on him.”

“Yes, leave it to me.”

Li Xunying stepped forward, grabbed Duan Qianluo’s hands, and dragged him toward a hidden corner.

Then, Lu Chuan walked toward Wan Changdong.

Wan Changdong was sitting collapsed on the ground, looking up at Lu Chuan, his expression desolate.

“Young Master Lu, I know I was wrong.

My ambitions were too great, and I did things I shouldn’t have.”

“Could you give me one chance to continue managing this Forest City?

I will be loyally devoted to you.”

“Please spare me.

If I die, Forest City will definitely fall into a period of turmoil, and the whole place will become chaotic.”

Lu Chuan said dismissively, “There’s no need.

If I kill you, can’t I just support another candidate?”

“The one you support may not necessarily be loyal.

I am now absolutely loyal to you, as long as you give me a line of survival, a chance!”

He pleaded desperately, but Lu Chuan, with his mind set on killing, did not plan to spare him.

Previously he hadn’t taken action, which was already a chance given to him.

However, he didn’t cherish it, so no blame could be put on Lu Chuan.

Whish!

Lu Chuan drew his Soul Terminating Sword and swung it at Wan Changdong.

Instantly, a head rolled off, and blood sprayed.

With a thump, Wan Changdong’s body fell to the ground, completely lifeless.

Lu Chuan turned and walked away, while a cold wind carrying bitter chills picked up across the desolate square.

Lu Chuan walked over to Dongfang Cheng.

“How is your injury?”

“Much better, I just drank some healing medicine.

Thankfully you defeated our opponent, or else we would have been in danger.”

Lu Chuan smiled, “Are you still worried about that?

There’s no need.”

“Let me use the Nine Heavens Profound Fire to help you heal; it’s faster.”
