Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 923 - 923 883 Heading to the Hot Springs

923: Chapter 883 Heading to the Hot Springs 923: Chapter 883 Heading to the Hot Springs Lu Chuan put away the map in his hand and then looked at the man in front of him, asking, “Are you going there to cultivate or to break through to the next realm?”

“For a realm breakthrough, of course.

That place is filled with Spiritual Energy, and the hot spring water can nourish the body.

Breaking through in the hot spring will double the efficacy, and the success rate will also increase significantly.”

“If you have the means, going there for a realm breakthrough is naturally the best.”

He said patiently.

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “I know that place is suitable for breaking through realms, but now the hot spring belongs to me, so I’m afraid you’ll need to wait until after I’ve completed my breakthrough before you can use it.”

Upon hearing this, the man in green robes immediately furrowed his brow, staring at Lu Chuan, and after sizing him up for a moment, asked, “What nonsense are you talking about?

The Nangong family has sold me the rights to use it for the next three days, and I’ve spent quite a bit of gold and favors to buy it!”

“If you want to go there to cultivate, you’ll have to wait at least three days later, and you’ll have to apply to the Nangong family for qualification.

Moreover, you’ll have to pay a hefty fee.

Otherwise, you better turn back to Lu Manor, even if you go now, it will just be a wasted trip.”

When Lu Chuan heard this, he simply smiled faintly, “This Nangong family you’re talking about no longer exists.

Their power in Beihe City has been nearly completely eradicated.

So, the ownership of this hot spring is no longer with the Nangong family.”

“Impossible!

The Nangong family is powerful.

They couldn’t possibly be exterminated all of a sudden.

Even if you wanted to deceive me, you shouldn’t lie about this.

The power of the Nangong family is unmatched in the entire Beihe City!”

“Understand?

So stop your nonsense.

The Nangong family couldn’t possibly be eradicated like you’re saying!”

He completely disbelieved Lu Chuan’s words and continued to stubbornly head up the mountain.

Lu Chuan followed behind him, continuing up the mountain together.

If this man didn’t believe it, then the truth would be clear once they arrived at the place.

After the Nangong family was eradicated, Lu Manor quickly took over, and the guards for the several cultivation spots outside the city had been replaced early on.

These people were also hired by the Nangong family, and now that they had been replaced by people from Lu Manor, the transition was quite smooth.

The news of the Nangong family’s destruction had spread to almost everyone in the city overnight.

If this man didn’t know by now, there was only one possibility—he wasn’t from Beihe City, he was an outsider.

Only in this situation would he be unaware of the current state of the Nangong family.

Following the mountain path and walking over a rugged trail, they gradually came upon a bamboo house in the forest.

The bamboo house was situated on a flat piece of land, surrounded by a wooden fence.

Lu Chuan walked towards the fence and saw four large characters on the plaque above the gate: Mountain Hot Spring.

Lu Chuan approached the gate, where the two guards standing there had already changed, no longer people from the Nangong family.

The man in green went over and quickly pulled out a token from his chest.

The token bore the character ‘Liang’, clearly indicating he was from some Liang family.

“Open the gate.

I’ve bought the rights to use this in advance, and I need to use the hot spring for a while.”

The two guards at the gate looked carefully at the token and then pursed their lips and shook their heads.

“Sorry, I don’t recognize your token.”

“You…

are you joking with me?

You don’t recognize the token of the Liang family?”

“What is the meaning of this?

I spent a good deal of gold to buy my entry, and now you won’t let me in?

Go check your reception list, see if there is a Third Young Master Liang on there!”

“To think I, Young Master Liang, am being disregarded by mere door guards, how humiliating!”

The two guards shrugged helplessly.

“Sorry, we don’t know any Young Master Liang.

Please leave, if you don’t, we will have to assume you are here to cause trouble.”

This statement from the guard stopped Young Master Liang in his tracks.

“What?

You’re going to consider me a troublemaker?

What’s next, you’re going to kick me out?”

“Damn it, to think you would not take me seriously, this is infuriating!

Is this how the Nangong family conducts business?

Is this how you treat your guests?”

“After I paid you so much gold for this opportunity, I made so many preparations for my breakthrough, and now you won’t let me in?

This is outrageous!”

His teeth clenching, his face flushed with rage, the attitudes of these two had thoroughly enraged him.

The two exchanged glances and shook their heads.

“Apologies, but we are not from the Nangong family.”

Young Master Liang quickly stepped forward, grabbed the speaking guard by the arms, and demanded loudly, “What did you say?

You’re not from the Nangong family?”

The guard quickly broke free from Young Master Liang’s grasp, shouting impatiently, “Can’t you understand what’s being said?

I already told you, I’m not from the Nangong family.

If you keep making a scene here, don’t blame us if we have to get rough.

Could you please have some self-awareness?”

Young Master Liang stepped back, looking stunned, unsure of what to say next.

He shook his head slightly, lamenting, “Impossible, the ownership of this hot spring belongs to the Nangong family, and that cannot change.”

Looking up at the two men, he continued, “If you’re not from the Nangong family, then whose men are you?

Speak!

Whose men are you?

Who else would dare to encroach on the Nangong family’s property?

Who has the guts?

In Beihe City, the Nangong family is the top dog!”

The two exchanged a look, both sneering as if they thought him a madman.

“Well, we are from Lu Manor, the Lu family’s people.

Our direct superior is Lu Tianyu, but the actual controller is Lu Chuan.

The Nangong family has fallen, and the family head, Nangong Tian, has been killed by Lu Chuan.

Such significant news, and yet you’re oblivious to it.

You really are out of touch.

Guess you’re not from Beihe City, are you?”

“Must be from out of town, otherwise, you would know this fact.

Forget it, let’s not waste words on him.”

After finishing their conversation, they no longer paid any attention to Young Master Liang.

He stepped back and slumped to the ground, sitting there with a dejected look on his face.

At that moment, Lu Chuan approached.

He looked up at Lu Chuan, “You really hit the nail on the head, the Nangong family truly is gone, and you locals here in Beihe City indeed have better information than I do.”

Lu Chuan stood before him, shaking his head, “Now, it’s my turn to use this hot spring.”

“Heh, you think you’re qualified?

I, as Young Master Liang, don’t have the right, what makes you think you do?

Now this training spot is under Lu family’s control, it’s strange when the Lu family started valuing Beihe City so much.”

“In the past, the Lu family never cared about Beihe City…

after all, this place is pretty remote.”

“This training spot is mine, do you think I have the right?”
