Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 914 - 914 874 The Eve of Battle

914: Chapter 874: The Eve of Battle 914: Chapter 874: The Eve of Battle In the dim cell, Nangong Lingya, staring at the arm on the ground, was completely stunned.

She looked up at Lu Chuan and asked hastily, “What have you done to him?”

“I cut off an arm and let him escape by luck, but sadly, I didn’t manage to kill him directly.”

“However, it’s not entirely without gain; at least his strength has been weakened.

I won’t be concerned about his influence on me anymore.”

Lu Chuan said nonchalantly, kicking the arm on the floor and sending the severed limb rolling to Nangong Lingya’s feet.

Nangong Lingya glanced at it once more, then immediately turned her head away, not daring to look any longer.

“Soon, you will see your father as well, but in the same manner.

They came without bringing him, and I already know they aren’t planning to negotiate with me but instead want to eradicate me completely.”

“Since they are all determined to take my life, naturally I won’t have the slightest mercy.

Just wait, tomorrow I will definitely bring your father’s corpse here, so you can take a good look with your own eyes!”

“In your dreams!

My father is at Martial Saint Realm Grade 3, you stand no chance against him.

The corpse I should see tomorrow will be yours!”

Nangong Lingya shouted loudly, as if Lu Chuan’s words had made her angry.

Lu Chuan simply smiled and turned to leave, “Then just keep waiting.

That day will never come for you!”

After Lu Chuan left the cell, Dongfang Cheng quickly came over.

“How’s everything?”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Not bad.

Nangong Lingya is still locked up inside, and that guy named Nangong Zhan has been injured by me and fled.

For now, everything is still under control.”

“This Nangong Tian really had such intentions, sending people in the dead of night to try and take her away.”

“Unfortunately for him, he encountered me, so no chance tonight.”

Dongfang Cheng took a deep breath, “Thank goodness you were cautious enough; otherwise, they might have really succeeded!”

Lu Chuan started walking towards his room, “Since I fended off that guy, I guess they won’t make a move tonight.”

“I’m heading back to sleep, to prepare for the fight tomorrow.”

“Young Master Lu, what if they are relentless?

How about this, I’ll send more guards to stay here, and if there’s any sign of trouble, I’ll immediately notify you.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “No problem, then go ahead and do that.

I’m going back to sleep.”

After returning to his room, Lu Chuan got into bed and fell asleep.

Meanwhile, Dongfang Cheng swiftly assembled a group of Dongfang Residence’s guards, all stationed in front of the dim cell, watching over it from all sides.

…

At the same time, deep in the night, Nangong Zhan’s figure frantically fled through the narrow alleys, winding his way back and forth, occasionally glancing behind.

After running a few hundred meters and seeing no sign of Lu Chuan, he gradually slowed his pace.

Having escaped from Dongfang Residence, he was panicked like a frightened bird, desperately fleeing, for fear of Lu Chuan catching up.

Leaning against the wall, he gasped for air.

The terrifying moment when Lu Chuan had severed his arm still haunted his mind.

He took several deep breaths to calm down before drinking another sip of the medicinal elixir.

After the wound had stopped bleeding, he finally stepped out of the alley and hurried along the deserted streets to the Nangong Residence.

At the entrance to Nangong Residence, the lights were bright, and guards stood at the door.

Seeing Nangong Zhan’s staggering figure approaching, they hastily went forward to support him.

“Lord Nangong Zhan, what has happened to you?

What’s the matter?”

The guards looked at Nangong Zhan’s arm in surprise.

“Help me inside, I must see the Family Head!”

With support, he walked in and arrived at the study.

In the study, Nangong Tian stood alone, gazing at the bright moon outside the window, lost in thought.

Seeing Nangong Zhan’s form, he promptly came over and asked, “How did it go?

Was it successful?”

But as soon as he finished speaking, he saw that Nangong Zhan’s arm had been lost.

His eyebrows immediately furrowed, teeth clenched: he already had an idea of what had happened.

“Is that bastard really that strong?

He actually managed to disable one of your arms?

Isn’t he just at Martial Saint Realm Grade 1 as well?”

Nangong Zhan said weakly, “That guy is indeed at Martial Saint Realm Grade 1.

At the beginning of the spar, I was able to gauge his strength.

His performance in all aspects was that of a Martial Saint Realm Grade 1.”

“Until he…

until he unleashed a flame of Sword Qi, then I was beaten back in disarray, completely outmatched.”

“That flame was so hot it felt as if it could instantly burn me to ash.

That fire is certainly not ordinary; if it were, I wouldn’t have been at a disadvantage against him.”

Hearing this, Nangong Tian’s brow furrowed, and he pondered seriously.

“I’ve heard that in this world, there exists Divine Fire, which is an elemental fire from the origin of the world.

The flame seed is extremely rare and unheard of by most in their entire lives.”

“If what he possesses is such a rare Divine Fire, then he’s most definitely a formidable enemy!”

“It seems that this will indeed be a tough battle, and he certainly has some confidence.”

“But as you also said, he only possesses the physical strength of Martial Saint Realm Grade 1.

I still have absolute suppression over him in terms of hard power.”

“As long as I can avoid being touched by his flames, I will have absolute dominance!”

Nangong Tian took a deep breath, “It seems, in tomorrow’s fight with him, we both have our advantages and disadvantages.

However, I have the upper hand in terms of experience and solid strength.

He is no match for me, and I will take all his hidden treasures for myself!”

“Hahahaha!

You haven’t returned completely without merit; at least you’ve brought back valuable intelligence.

Tomorrow, I shall meet him and let him learn that there are always people better than him!”

Nangong Zhan said somewhat uneasily, “Big brother, should we summon our father to come out of retirement?

If he comes out and joins you in practice, you will surely beat that bastard with no resistance at all!”

Nangong Tian scoffed, “Are you underestimating me?

If I have to ask my father to come out over such a trifle, wouldn’t I be considered a waste in his eyes?”

“If I can’t defeat a mere nobody, what face would I have to remain Family Head of the Nangong family?

Tomorrow will be the day I reclaim our family’s reputation.

Then, everyone in the entire city will see that the true ruler has never left Beihe City.

This place still belongs to the Nangong family!”

Nangong Tian spoke with overwhelming momentum, his confidence brimming as if he had already won.

Seeing this, Nangong Zhan also relaxed, “You must avenge me, that bastard is far too arrogant!”

“Go sleep and rest; tomorrow, wait for my news.

I will make that bastard a cripple!

In front of everyone in the city, I’ll thoroughly humiliate him!”
