Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 857 - 857 817 Perfect Ending

857: Chapter 817: Perfect Ending 857: Chapter 817: Perfect Ending Lu Chuan squatted in front of Dongfang Cheng, raised his right hand, and gathered the Nine Heavens Profound Fire in his palm.

Then, as his palm approached, the flames surged into Dongfang Cheng’s body.

Dongfang Cheng immediately felt a burning heat within him, a warm current surged continuously throughout his body, and soon, he felt no more pain.

Looking down, he was astonished to see that the wounds on his body were healing at a visible rate.

He quickly looked up at Lu Chuan, his face breaking into an expression of immense surprise and delight.

“Young Master Lu, this flame is so miraculous, merely entering my body, it can heal my injuries so quickly.”

Lu Chuan smiled faintly, “This flame can not only heal injuries but can also reverse the process, delivering a multiplied blow to the wounds, and the damage it causes is quite exaggerated.”

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Cheng couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

Such exaggerated healing powers, if reversed into destructing effects, would probably be even more despairing.

“When you dealt with Duan Qianluo, you didn’t use this technique, did you?

If you had used the Nine Heavens Profound Fire then, that guy would have probably died more miserably.”

Lu Chuan just smiled faintly, unconcerned, “I possess two Divine Fires on me, using just one is enough to defeat an enemy, there’s no need to use both together.”

Lu Chuan grabbed his arm and pulled him up from the ground.

After standing up, Dongfang Cheng took a deep breath, feeling immensely refreshed in his heart.

“This feeling, it’s simply wonderful.

I’ve never experienced anything like this before, my severe injuries have healed as if my body has been completely rejuvenated.”

“Let’s go, we should leave this place and head back now.”

At this moment, Li Xunying came over, “We can go back now, everything here has been taken care of.”

Lu Chuan scanned the surroundings, Duan Qianluo and Wan Changdong’s corpses had been dealt with.

Even the blood stains left from their fight had been thoroughly cleaned up.

Lu Chuan looked at Li Xunying and asked, “Did you find anything on Duan Qianluo?”

“Yes, I found this on him!”

He took out a token, clearly inscribed with the words “Ten Thousand Tigers.”

“This is his token from his time at the Ten Thousand Tigers Sect.

Let me see it.”

Lu Chuan took the token and considered it carefully, turning it over to see that there were also the words “Elder” on the reverse side.

“This guy, he was actually an elder of the Ten Thousand Tigers Sect.”

“It seems he held a high and influential position in the Ten Thousand Tigers Sect, given this stature, by killing their people, they’re definitely going to target you now.”

Dongfang Cheng walked over, examined the token, and then said to Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan sighed helplessly, “No way around it, having so many strange treasures on me just attracts too much attention.”

“I think, this precious sword on me will sooner or later attract someone’s attention too.”

Dongfang Cheng looked at the Soul Terminating Sword behind Lu Chuan and said, “That can’t be, your sword sheath looks so plain, from its appearance, it almost looks like an ordinary longsword.”

Lu Chuan shook his head gently, “Do you know about the Fiery Sword Sect?

They already know about this precious sword’s situation, if they get greedy too, then I’m afraid it might bring another wave of enemies.”

Li Xunying continued to take things out of a bundle.

“I also found these on Duan Qianluo.”

“This is a top-quality Heavenly Essence Pill, used to absorb Spiritual Energy and help break through realms.

This item is very rare, big brother, you should take it.”

Li Xunying handed the elixir pill to Lu Chuan.

He continued digging and then took out some jewelry, along with some other auxiliary elixir pills for healing wounds.

“This guy didn’t carry too many good things on him, probably because he was just out on a mission, so he didn’t bring much.”

Li Xunying placed the items into a bundle and handed it back to Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan picked up the bundle and slung it over his shoulder, “No matter what’s inside, let’s head back first.”

“Right, brother, there’s also his precious sword.”

Li Xunying took the longsword from behind and handed it to Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan picked up the blade and held it horizontally in front of him, inspecting it closely and meticulously.

The blade was as black as ink, and the handle was inlaid with a row of green gemstones.

The entire precious sword appeared well-crafted, with an incredibly sharp blade; swirling currents inside suggested that releasing Sword Qi with it would be extraordinarily effective.

After examining it, Lu Chuan couldn’t help but exclaim, “This precious sword really looks excellent; it is at least of Spirit Qi grade.”

“As for which grade of Spiritual Artifact it is, that’s hard to say.”

Lu Chuan looked up at Dongfang Cheng and asked, “Do you recognize this precious sword?”

“No, there are many precious swords with black blades, but I am really not sure about this one; after all, I am not a swordsmith, and since childhood, I have not been very interested in swords.”

“How about this, there are some famous swordsmiths in the city; you could go and have them appraise it, then you would naturally know the detailed information about this precious sword.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly.

“Let’s go, we should head back now; it’s best not to stay here any longer.”

Leading the way, the three of them exited the Inner City and left the vicinity of the City Lord’s Mansion.

As they entered the boundaries of Forest City and looked at the bustling streets, these people were yet to know that, just moments ago, the leadership of the Forest City Lord was about to change.

“With the death of the Forest City Lord, Forest City is likely to enter a period of turbulence; we must find a way to stabilize Forest City.”

Dongfang Cheng remarked.

Lu Chuan pondered for a moment, then said, “In that case, we should also consider supporting someone to take over as the Forest City Lord.”

Dongfang Cheng turned to Lu Chuan and asked eagerly, “Young Master Lu, whom do you plan to support as the new City Lord?”

“It definitely won’t work for the three of us; if Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang were to do it, their experience wouldn’t be enough to manage the people inside the City Lord’s Mansion,”

Lu Chuan shook his head helplessly, “It’s really not easy to find a trustworthy person right now.”

“I’ll think about it when I get back.”

The three mounted their horses together and began their journey back along the streets.

Upon reaching a fork in the road, Lu Chuan waved to Dongfang Cheng as a gesture of farewell, and they parted ways.

Lu Chuan returned to Lu Manor, while Dongfang Cheng went back to Dongfang Residence.

At the entrance of Lu Manor, Gu Xiaorou was waiting; upon seeing Lu Chuan, she immediately showed an excited smile.

She ran toward Lu Chuan.

“How did it go?

Did you rescue the person?”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Of course, he was rescued; you can rest easy when I am involved.”

“That’s great, then… what about the City Lord?

He wouldn’t have let you come back easily, right?”

She curiously widened her beautiful eyes as she looked at Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan shrugged indifferently, “He’s already dead, including the one who was supporting him from behind; they both died.”

“Ah?

The City Lord is dead?

Then, isn’t Forest City now in a state without a City Lord’s jurisdiction?”

“I will consider supporting a new City Lord to take office.”
