Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 892 - 892 852 Captive

892: Chapter 852: Captive 892: Chapter 852: Captive Nangong Teng charged towards Lu Chuan, and at this moment, his figure became extremely fast, like a fleeting shadow as he rapidly approached Lu Chuan.

He swung his four arms, each wielding a longsword, and the chaotic glint of blades bore down on Lu Chuan, forcing him to dodge.

Lu Chuan took several steps back to avoid the first wave of attacks.

Then, Lu Chuan gripped the hilt of his sword tightly and counterattacked, swinging back at Nangong Teng.

Whoosh!!

Nangong Teng’s speed was incredibly fast; he quickly retreated a step, dodging Lu Chuan’s counter.

He burst into raucous laughter, “Your speed is already far inferior to mine!

Right now, you’re just a fish on my chopping board, waiting for death!”

He shouted arrogantly, showing utter disregard for Lu Chuan.

This brief exchange had filled him with immense confidence; Lu Chuan’s speed seemed much slower in his eyes.

The opponent’s attacks were something he could easily avoid, which in his view, meant a guaranteed victory in their duel!

But just then, the two additional arms behind him suddenly shrank, then swelled back to normal.

His smile instantly froze, “Hm?”

He looked down in confusion; there was nothing wrong with his extra arms.

He looked up at Lu Chuan, “Something’s not right, what did you do?”

Lu Chuan beckoned with his fingers and continued, “Come on, keep attacking, I can handle you!”

Lu Chuan spoke with such confidence that it almost shook Nangong Teng’s own.

“Fine, I’ll do as you wish, I’m going to kill you now!”

He charged at Lu Chuan once more.

But at this moment, Lu Chuan no longer retreated, instead, he also rushed towards him.

Neither side showed any sign of backing down, a fierce collision seemed imminent in the eyes of the onlookers.

As Lu Chuan swung his sword, just as the blade was about to make contact with Nangong Teng, a strange flowing sound erupted.

The layer of darkness shrouding Nangong Teng began to retreat rapidly, fading from head to toe.

And the two extra swift arms at his back were also quickly shrinking.

In an instant, Nangong Teng became weak and powerless, and looked as though he was about to collapse.

The arms that held his sword were limp and powerless, and the short sword fell to the ground.

Then, he fell to his knees with a thud, his entire being drenched in sweat, looking completely drained.

He gasped for breath, looking up at Lu Chuan with disbelief in his eyes.

Looking at his own hands, he cried out, “What have you done!

What did you do to me!”

The bystanders watched with curiosity as Lu Chuan’s sword strike, which hadn’t even touched Nangong Teng’s body, reverted him back to his true form.

This made Nangong Teng seem like a joke.

He shouted angrily, his heart gradually filled with despair over his anger.

He knew, without this trump card, there was only one outcome for him: death!

There was no second option.

Lu Chuan slowly approached him.

“You are possessed by an evil spirit, you complement each other; it can aid your cultivation, helping you enhance your strength, but likewise, it can become your weakness.

And this sword is the perfect weapon to exploit your own weakness!”

Nangong Teng’s eyes were fixed on the precious sword in Lu Chuan’s hand, his expression cloudy and at a loss.

“What…

what Immortal Artifact is this?

Even if you want me to die, let me die with my eyes closed!”

Lu Chuan casually said, “This is the Soul Terminating Sword, designed to destroy a person’s Divine Soul and the evil spirits.”

“This precious sword is unique to the Kunlun Domain.

Many desire to possess it, but they must first get past me.”

“Today, you have been utterly defeated, and any further struggle is pointless!”

Lu Chuan walked up to him and placed the body of the sword against his neck.

The onlookers all found it strange.

These two men actually had a restraining relationship with each other.

It’s just a pity that everyone thought they would witness a great battle when Nangong Teng played his trump card, but unexpectedly, the result was Nangong Teng’s swift defeat.

“What do you want to do to me?

What do you want to do to the Nangong family?

Just say it!”

He lowered his head and spoke in a deep voice, seemingly having lost the will to fight, as if he was ready to be at Lu Chuan’s mercy.

“I want the Nangong family to release someone.

Having someone snatched away right from my side and taken away, if word of this gets out, what face will I, Lu Chuan, have left in the Kunlun Domain?”

Lu Chuan turned to look at Dongfang Cheng and said, “Go and call some people, take this fellow to be locked up in the dark cell.

He must not be allowed to escape!”

Dongfang Cheng promptly nodded his head, “I understand, I’ll handle this matter!”

“You two, give me a hand, and take this guy away!”

Dongfang Cheng quickly walked towards Nangong Teng, with two servants carrying the man away.

Nangong Teng, whose heart had turned to ash, had completely abandoned the idea of struggling.

Dongfang Ming hurried over and said anxiously, “Young Master Lu, this guy is a big shot in the Nangong family.

If we capture him, surely the Nangong family will become anxious and launch an attack against us.”

“You don’t need to worry about that.

If we’re to have a do-or-die struggle with the Nangong family, we naturally cannot let Nangong Teng go back.

Have someone put on a few more iron chains, and make sure he doesn’t escape.”

“I understand, in that case, I have no choice but to trust you this once.

If we fail, how will our Dongfang family stand in Beihe City from now on?”

Dongfang Ming said with great concern, fearing that if Lu Chuan made a mistake, it would bring disaster upon the Dongfang Residence as well.

After all, the Nangong family’s influence was still considerable.

Despite losing a few key figures, the strength of the Nangong family was not to be underestimated.

“Everyone disperse, there’s nothing more to see here.

This battle ends here, but in the future, I will continue to trouble the Nangong family!”

Lu Chuan addressed the crowd and then turned to enter the residence.

The onlookers were abuzz with discussion.

There were too many points worth discussing in the recent battle, and many of them never expected Nangong Teng to actually lose.

This battle also made the name Lu Chuan more widely recognized.

Following this, the strife between Dongfang Residence’s Lu Chuan and the Nangong family would become the focal point of the entire city’s attention.

Lu Chuan, back in the courtyard, sat down in the pavilion to rest for a moment and drank a few sips of tea handed over by a servant.

Dongfang Ming and Dongfang Cheng came to the pavilion.

“I’ve locked that guy up in the dark cell, with several iron chains.

He won’t be able to escape.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “What is his status in the Nangong family?”

“His status is very high, even being cultivated as a successor for the future.”

Dongfang Ming said earnestly.

“That important?

Then using him in exchange, I should be able to get someone back, right?”

Lu Chuan continued to ask.

Dongfang Ming continued to nod, “Yes, you should be able to exchange him.

The Nangong family surely can’t afford to lose Nangong Teng, a junior with so much potential.”

“So, rest assured.

Next, we should start negotiations with the Nangong family.

If we can reach an agreement, all the better.

If not, then…

we will have to keep fighting until a victor emerges.”
