Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 926 - 926 886 The Wind Changes Direction

926: Chapter 886: The Wind Changes Direction 926: Chapter 886: The Wind Changes Direction Lu Chuan walked down the mountain path, followed closely by a man surnamed Liang, who did not stop for a moment.

“Big Brother Lu, with Nangong Tian’s immense strength, how did you defeat him?”

“I had thought that Nangong Tian was invincible under the heavens, but to think he actually died at your hand.

Considering his lifetime of glory, to be killed by a junior in his later years is indeed poignant.”

Lu Chuan looked back at him and said indifferently, “That’s not something you should be concerned about.

Aren’t you supposed to be breaking through your realm?

Go ahead.”

“I’m not in a hurry now.

I’m so lucky to have met you today; I have many questions to ask!”

“For example… uh…”

After rubbing his forehead and pondering for a while, he quickly asked, “For example, where do you plan to go next?

Are you going to Tiannan City?

The remnants of the Nangong family are still there.

Since you’ve killed Nangong Tian already, it would be proper to clean up the remaining forces as well.”

“Also, how will you deal with Nangong Qianying?

It’s said that this old man’s strength is terrifying.

He rarely leaves his seclusion, but once he does, no one can match him; he is frighteningly powerful.”

“The Nangong family was able to grow to this point mainly because Nangong Qianying was in charge, giving them such confidence.”

“If you don’t kill Nangong Qianying, he will surely make a comeback sooner or later.

You’ve killed his son and his grandson; he will definitely not let you go.”

He kept chattering non-stop behind him, making Lu Chuan very impatient.

“Enough with the nonsense!

I will find an opportunity to deal with Nangong Qianying; I don’t need your prattle!”

“Now, go do whatever you need to do.

If you keep following me, be careful I might lay my hands on you!”

Lu Chuan’s harsh tone frightened him to a halt, and he nervously swallowed his saliva and quickly bent down to apologize.

“I’m truly sorry, I won’t bother you again.”

“However… since you’re going to Tiannan City, you can look for me when you get there.

I can help you understand Tiannan City; I grew up there.”

“I am Liang Hao.

If we get the chance to meet again, we’ll be friends, and I’ll help you out.”

He waved to Lu Chuan, then turned and left, not daring to disturb Lu Chuan any further.

Lu Chuan continued on his way down the mountain.

Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, Lu Chuan mounted his horse and began to return to Beihe City.

Now, the only enemy Lu Chuan had left from the Nangong family was Nangong Qianying, the old man who was over a hundred years old and had cultivated for most of his life.

Who knows how strong he had become.

To deal with this old man, Lu Chuan figured he needed to prepare more thoroughly and appropriately.

Otherwise, there was a real possibility he could fall into the old man’s hands.

Lu Chuan rode towards Beihe City.

By evening, Lu Chuan returned to Beihe City.

Beihe City was now noticeably livelier.

The major families had completed a power shift, with Lu Manor being preeminent and Dongfang Residence next.

The structure of Beihe City had changed, as the forces that had been loyal followers of the Nangong family had been purged.

Lu Manor had acquired the wealth and assets accumulated by the Nangong family, becoming the wealthiest family in Beihe City.

The newly appointed City Lord was even someone who had come from Lu Manor.

A change in dynasty took just a day or two.

The fall of the Nangong family was beyond almost everyone’s expectations.

The once dominant Nangong family, when it came to their demise, it occurred with astonishing speed.

For a moment, Lu Chuan’s name reverberated throughout Beihe City, known by almost everyone.

As Lu Chuan rode his horse into Beihe City, walking along the streets, all the passersby turned their attention towards him.

Seeing how young Lu Chuan was, their hearts filled with even greater astonishment.

At such a young age, he had managed to annihilate the entire Nangong family with his own strength, a feat truly beyond reach.

Lu Chuan headed towards the newly selected site for Lu Manor.

After receiving funds, Lu Manor purchased a lavish residence to serve as both an office and a living space for Lu Tianyu.

Upon entering the residence, Lu Chuan found Lu Tianyu sitting in a pavilion in the courtyard, with a long queue lined up at the pavilion’s entrance.

This line was filled with notable figures from all the major families within Beihe City.

They came in succession to Lu Tianyu, all for the purpose of signing new cooperative contracts.

A man stood before Lu Tianyu, bending slightly with a sheepish smile, “Elder Master Lu, I am the second son of the Xu family.

I am here today to discuss a partnership.

Our family runs a restaurant business in the city, and we can collaborate more in the future to prosper together.”

Lu Tianyu, expressionless, nodded slightly and then signed his name on the contract.

“Hereafter, our two families can be partners, but as for the distribution of benefits…”

“I understand, of course I understand.

Your rise has indeed been recent, requiring substantial capital to expand your power.

We are all clear about that, and we will certainly relinquish the profits that need to be relinquished.”

Lu Tianyu nodded slightly.

After this man stepped away, another came forward to begin discussing partnership matters.

All in all, it went smoothly.

With Lu Chuan holding fort, these people lacked the courage to act otherwise.

Lu Chuan moved through the queuing crowd and entered the pavilion.

Lu Tianyu immediately stood up, his expression turning serious as he looked at Lu Chuan.

“Lu Chuan, you’ve come…”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Let’s end here for today, I have some matters to discuss with you.”

With that, everyone wisely turned and left.

Those lined up behind felt it was a pity, having waited for so long already.

After the crowd dispersed, Lu Chuan sat down in the pavilion while Lu Tianyu stood by, pouring tea for Lu Chuan.

“Whatever you want to discuss, just go ahead,” said Lu Tianyu.

Lu Chuan looked at Lu Tianyu, “You were a friend of my father, and I still hold respect for you.

You manage Lu Manor on your own; I won’t say much.”

“No problem, leave it to me.

Although it’s much larger now, I will give it my all.”

“I came mainly to say that there’s another Lu Manor in Forest City under my control.

Now that both are under my command, find a time to establish contact with them.”

“Forest City, you say?

No problem, I can send someone immediately to establish contact.

During the management process, we can also look out for each other.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “The Lu Manor in Forest City is managed by my fiancée, so in daily operations, her orders take precedence.”

Lu Tianyu nodded emphatically, “I understand, rest assured, since she is your fiancée, I will certainly not defy her commands.”

Lu Chuan nodded in satisfaction, “That’s good.

I trust you to manage Lu Manor without giving me any additional concerns.”
