Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 893 - 893 853 Focus of the Entire City

893: Chapter 853 Focus of the Entire City 893: Chapter 853 Focus of the Entire City Nangong Teng had just left the mountains not long ago and was captured by Lu Chuan in his first battle, now being held captive in the Dongfang Residence.

This news spread throughout Beihe City, causing quite a stir.

In the eyes of the people in Beihe City, Nangong Teng was an extremely important figure for the Nangong family.

After all, the Nangong family saw him as the future successor, possibly becoming the ruler of the Nangong family in a few decades.

Thus, this matter was absolutely serious for the Nangong family.

It was enough to completely enrage the Nangong family and make them willing to do anything, launching a furious retaliation.

At the same time, within the Nangong Residence.

The bad news reached the residence and came to the ears of Nangong Lingya.

Sitting in the study, she became restless after hearing the caretaker’s report, her face showing a bitter expression, looking extremely anxious.

“How is that possible, how is it possible?

How could my brother lose to his opponent!”

She panicked completely, not knowing what to do next.

Her current strength was definitely not enough to confront Lu Chuan; now, even mobilizing all members of the Nangong family might not be enough to defeat Lu Chuan.

She held her forehead, pursed her lips, and after much deliberation, sighed helplessly.

“I must write a letter and inform father, he will definitely find every possible way to help us.”

“Grandfather is still in seclusion, we cannot disturb him now.

Once father arrives, we will surely turn the situation around.”

Nangong Lingya looked at the caretaker and asked, “Are you certain about what you saw?

Did Lu Chuan really just capture my brother?”

“Yes, he took the young master into the Dongfang Residence; it seems he was not harmed, but now, it’s hard to say what might happen.

We should negotiate with them now, at least to prevent them from acting rashly and harming the young master, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable; after all, he is the future Manor Master!”

The caretaker said with immense nervousness.

Nangong Lingya nodded slightly, “I absolutely intend to negotiate with them, but not now.

If we rush over to request negotiations now, I would appear too distressed in their eyes, and they would also realize they have captured an extremely important person.”

“Let’s go tomorrow morning.

Let’s take some time, we can’t let them have the upper hand in the negotiations.

Send the letter to my father quickly, using the finest Myriad Realms Bird raised by our family.”

“Understood, I will do it right away.”

The caretaker stepped forward, took the letter written by Nangong Lingya, and hurriedly left.

Nangong Lingya gazed out the window; her heart felt gloomy, and she felt as though even breathing had become difficult.

That evening, Lu Chuan was having dinner in the Dongfang Residence.

In the dining room, Lu Chuan sat in the middle, with Dongfang Cheng and Dongfang Ming sitting on either side.

“This time, we have captured an extraordinary person indeed.”

Dongfang Ming said with a laugh while eating.

“This Nangong Teng holds a very high position in the Nangong family.

Now that we’ve captured this lad, we have thoroughly offended the Nangong family, involving our Dongfang Residence as well.

Now, there’s no turning back for us; we need to confront the Nangong family decisively, and without determining a clear winner, it might be difficult to end well.”

Young Master Lu, that Nangong Lingya will definitely come to talk to you; when that happens, make sure you negotiate well.”

Dongfang Ming advised.

Lu Chuan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t compromise until I reach my goal.

No matter how she threatens me, I won’t back down an inch.”

The few quickly finished their dinner, and Lu Chuan stepped out of the dining room, heading towards the corner store.

Pushing open the wooden door, dust fell, making Lu Chuan quickly dodge to the side.

As he entered, Lu Chuan saw Nangong Teng tied up with several iron chains.

At that moment, he was sitting on the ground with his head drooping, appearing to have completely lost his faith.

“Hey, want something to eat?”

Lu Chuan crouched in front of him and asked.

“No need!

I won’t eat your food!”

He said very stubbornly.

Lu Chuan laughed, “If you don’t eat, that’s fine.

I didn’t plan to feed you anyway.

I didn’t come here to comfort you, I came to tell you something.”

“What do you want to say?”

He lifted his head, eyes fixed on Lu Chuan.

“You’ve been captured, and your sister must be frantic, adding fuel to the fire.

She’ll probably come to negotiate with me today or tomorrow.”

“Does your sister love you a lot?”

Lu Chuan asked.

Nangong Teng clenched his back teeth tightly and said angrily, “What are you trying to do?”

“Maybe, your sister will give up something very precious in order to save you.”

Nangong Teng shouted angrily, “What do you want to do to her?

Come at me if you dare, don’t target my sister!”

Lu Chuan couldn’t help but laugh, “I can’t bring myself to hurt you, don’t talk nonsense.”

“In any case, if you bastards release my people, I might spare you.

If you don’t, you’re definitely dead!”

“Not just you, but also your sister, including your Nangong family, will all be destroyed.

I’ll make sure the world knows what happens when they mess with Lu Chuan!”

“Your Nangong family is just a fuse after all!”

Having said that, Lu Chuan patted his head, stood up and prepared to leave.

“Who exactly did we capture, tell me!”

He looked up at Lu Chuan and asked.

“You captured a man named Li Xunying.

He used to work for me, although we didn’t cooperate for long, he was still someone who followed my orders.

If I can’t even protect my own man, what face do I have left to mingle in the Kunlun Domain?”

“Li Xunying?

That name sounds familiar.

I’ve heard my grandfather mention it.”

Nangong Teng frowned slightly and recalled something after pondering for a moment.

Lu Chuan immediately turned back to look at him and asked, “Your grandfather?

Isn’t your grandfather named Nangong Qianying?”

“Yes, that’s right, do you know my grandfather?”

Nangong Teng nodded naturally and said it outright.

Clearly, he didn’t know that Li Xunying had been trying to get revenge on Nangong Qianying.

“Your grandfather is still alive, right?”

“Yes, though he is over a hundred years old, he is still in robust health and was recently in closed-door cultivation.”

He spoke frankly.

Lu Chuan smiled and nodded, “I understand.

Just stay put here, I’ll leave now and come back if there’s any news.”

Lu Chuan turned and walked out of the small dark room.

Nangong Teng sat on the ground, his brows furrowed, he always felt something was not quite right…

The next morning, Lu Chuan got up and immediately received news that the Nangong family had sent someone over.

Lu Chuan hastily dressed and hurried to the courtyard.

Inside the spacious courtyard following the main entrance of the Dongfang Residence, Dongfang Cheng, Dongfang Ming, and Lu Chuan all stood there, waiting for the arrival of the Nangong family.
