Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 919 - 919 879 Instant Collapse

919: Chapter 879: Instant Collapse 919: Chapter 879: Instant Collapse Lu Chuan’s battle with Nangong Tian had come to a complete end.

The outcome for Nangong Tian left everyone sighing.

Such a tragic ending was truly unbearable to witness.

Among the crowd, the atmosphere was exceptionally oppressive, and they all didn’t know what to say.

The kill move that Lu Chuan suddenly displayed was simply too astonishing, far beyond their imagination.

They had originally thought that Nangong Tian was in an unbeatable position, with overwhelming power that left almost no possibility for counterattack.

Yet they had still greatly underestimated the power of an Immortal Artifact.

Indeed, the reputation of Immortal Artifacts was not unfounded; once their power was truly unleashed, it would be tremendously astonishing.

And Nangong Tian had paid the price of his life for this spectacle.

This had completely refreshed the people of Beihe City’s understanding of Immortal Artifacts.

People from the Dongfang Residence carried Nangong Tian’s body, supporting him as they headed toward the Dongfang Residence.

The remaining members of the Nangong family appeared at a loss for a moment, lacking their pillar of support; they didn’t know what to do.

The people from Lu Manor, closely following behind Lu Chuan, also followed suit.

Lu Tianyu hurriedly came up behind Lu Chuan, looking at him with immense excitement.

“Young Master Lu, that attack just now was incredibly fierce.

Nangong Tian, with such great strength, couldn’t even hold on for ten seconds before he was on the brink of death.

The power is simply too astonishing!”

“Having killed Nangong Tian, the position of master of Beihe City is now yours!”

Lu Tianyu said excitedly.

Lu Chuan merely smiled faintly, “Everything is within my expectations, all went smoothly.

Since we won, Beihe City will be my domain from now on.”

“You should stay here and become a part of the forces under my command.”

Lu Tianyu nodded reverently, full of resolve, “Rest assured, Young Master Lu, from now on, I will strive to develop the Lu Manor and take full control of everything in Beihe City, all to expand the reach of your power!”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Good, your attitude is fairly commendable.

I hope not to see anything displeasing.”

“Absolutely not, I will serve with utmost loyalty.”

Soon, they arrived within the Dongfang Residence.

Nangong Tian was led by his arms into the residence.

As Lu Chuan followed at the side, Dongfang Cheng approached, “Lu Chuan, what do you think?

Should we take him to the dark room, or bring out those two?”

Lu Chuan headed toward the dark room, “I’ll bring those two out.”

“Alright, then we’ll wait here.”

Dongfang Cheng sat on a chair nearby, shaking his head with a smile as he looked at Nangong Tian, who had collapsed on the ground, “You Nangong family really shouldn’t have provoked Lu Chuan; it wasn’t a wise move.

If you could have befriended Lu Chuan, it would have been a beneficial situation for your family.”

“It’s a pity, you actually took the initiative against Lu Chuan, capturing people close to him first.

That was really too bold.”

Nangong Tian hung his head, his voice deep, “What’s done is done, and there’s no use talking about it.

The Nangong family will have to rely on my father to hold the fort going forward.”

…

Lu Chuan entered the dark room and approached Nangong Lingya.

“Nangong Lingya, let’s go, I’ll take you out.”

Nangong Lingya sat up on the bed, and looking at Lu Chuan, her eyes were filled with resentment.

“Take me out?

Where are you going to take me?

I’m waiting for my dad to save me.

If he comes, just you wait for your death!”

She spoke arrogantly, clearly deriving her confidence from Nangong Tian.

Before the news of Nangong Tian’s arrival, she wouldn’t have dared to speak to Lu Chuan like this.

“I will take you to see your father, and after you see him, you should speak more respectfully.”

Nangong Lingya’s eyes widened in shock, “What?

Is my father outside?

Where are you taking me to see him?”

“Or has my father come to his senses and brought someone over for an exchange?”

“That’s impossible.

The person is with my grandfather; he would never let them go!”

Nangong Lingya fell into deep thought.

Lu Chuan stepped forward and grabbed her arm, “Your father is dying.

He wants to see you one last time.

If you don’t go out, he won’t be able to see you.”

Upon hearing this, Nangong Lingya violently jerked her arm back and stared at Lu Chuan with wide eyes.

“Bullshit!

My father dying?

It’s your father who’s dying!

Stop spouting nonsense!

If anyone’s going to die, it’s you!”

She shouted loudly, absolutely refusing to believe that Nangong Tian was going to die.

With the strength of a Martial Saint Realm Grade 3, he was nearly invincible, at least in the surrounding region.

Lu Chuan was getting impatient, “If you keep talking nonsense, I will just go out now and kill Nangong Tian.

Then I’ll throw his corpse in front of you, how about that?”

Nangong Lingya took a deep breath, trying to calm herself, and looked up at Lu Chuan, “Are you telling the truth?

My father is a Martial Saint Realm Grade 3, the idea of him dying is something I simply cannot believe!”

“Quit your prattling.

Won’t you know once you go out?”

Lu Chuan stepped forward, grabbed her arm, and pulled her out forcefully.

Back in the courtyard, Lu Chuan yanked Nangong Lingya forward with force.

A stumble nearly sent Nangong Lingya crashing to the ground.

When she raised her head and saw Nangong Tian, she froze in place, unable to move, as if her brain had shutdown.

In her eyes, as she looked at Nangong Tian, was complete disbelief.

At that moment, Nangong Tian was covered in blood, looking like a blood-drenched man, and the familiar contours of his face told her that this was indeed Nangong Tian.

She slowly stepped forward, her hands raised uncertainly.

“Father, why has it come to this?”

Nangong Tian glanced at Nangong Lingya and then cast his eyes down to the ground, feeling too ashamed to face his daughter again.

“My daughter, this is the end.

The destiny of the Nangong family has come to a close.

We provoked someone we shouldn’t have, and this is our family’s fate.”

“To see you one last time is all the effort I can muster.”

“Whether the Nangong family can continue to stand tall is in doubt, and much will depend on your grandfather’s stance.”

“I… I might only survive for half a Shi Chen at most.

Take good care of yourself.”

Nangong Lingya crouched before him and began to sob quietly.

Nangong Tian looked up at Lu Chuan with a feeble voice, “Lu Chuan, please spare the lives of my children.

They are innocent.

Let them go, and even if I become a ghost, I won’t trouble you.”

Lu Chuan laughed scornfully, “That’s laughable.

Saying even as a ghost you won’t trouble me, you might as well say you can’t forgive me even as a ghost.”

“I know you’re more swayed by soft words than hard ones, so that’s why I’m saying this.

Please, I truly admit my mistake,” he pleaded again.

“Opportunities are precious, but none of you cherished them.

If I were the one defeated today, would you spare my life?”

“If you don’t cut the weeds and dig out the roots, fear they’ll grow back as soon as the wind blows.”

Lu Chuan’s eyes carried a hint of murderous intent, sealing Nangong Lingya’s fate.
