Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 953 - 953 913 The Roadblocker

953: Chapter 913 The Roadblocker 953: Chapter 913 The Roadblocker Hearing that the person was still alive, Lu Chuan was relieved quite a bit.

He looked at Qian Sheng and continued to ask, “Besides you, who else did that guy bring?”

“Besides me, there were two others.

One of them I do not recognize, but I know the other one.

She goes by the title of Black Moon Fairy, self-proclaimed, and her strength is also formidable.

She is now friends with Nangong Qianying, and she intervened this time to owe Nangong Qianying a favor.”

“Black Moon Fairy?”

“She’s a woman?”

“That’s right, a woman in her thirties, skilled in some bizarre spells, anyone who fights her is bound to suffer some losses.”

He looked up at Lu Chuan, helplessly saying, “If you’re going to fight Nangong Qianying, I advise you to tackle them one by one, rather than charging in directly, otherwise, you’ll definitely be no match.”

“If it weren’t for your Uncanny Fire countering me, our battle would have been an even exchange.

The two aides by Nangong Qianying’s side are no less capable than me.

You had better think this through, if you want to kill Nangong Qianying, you cannot take on all three at once!”

He spoke in a weak and listless tone, seemingly offering sincere advice to Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan gazed at him curiously, “Are you helping me?

Isn’t Nangong Qianying your friend?”

“Heh, as a Demonic Cultivator, my relationship with Nangong Qianying is purely based on interests.

He promised me that after bringing me here, he would grant me a large estate to manage thousands of people under me, letting me experience the feeling of power.”

“But that bastard led me into a trap.

To do him this favor, I’ve risked my own life—of course I hate him now.”

Lu Chuan smiled and shook his head, “You’re quite the calculator.

You can’t seem to tolerate even the smallest loss, can you?”

“This is far beyond a small loss.

I’ve gambled my own life to help him—I can’t afford to lose any more!”

His anger surging, he clenched his fists and pounded on the iron cage.

Lu Chuan turned to leave, and Yuan Gang quickly followed.

“Young Master Lu, how do you plan to deal with this guy?

Kill him now?

Or wait?”

“Let’s not kill him yet.

We’ll deal with him after killing Nangong Qianying, make it quick for him.”

“I actually wanted to torment this bastard for a few more days.

He killed dozens of my men; I definitely won’t let him off easily!” Yuan Gang said angrily, fists clenched.

Then, he looked at Lu Chuan, smiling, “But, since it’s your command, of course I’ll obey.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “You used to think I shouldn’t order you around, didn’t you?”

“Heh, that was before I knew how powerful you are.

You’re so much more formidable than my older brother!”

“Aren’t you afraid your brother will hear you say that and then teach you a lesson?”

“Afraid of what?

I’m scared of him?

I am his own brother after all.”

Yuan Gang chuckled naively.

Lu Chuan headed towards the stables, “I’ll go back and report the situation to your brother first, then we’ll discuss our next move.”

“Sure, no problem, if my brother needs my help with anything, just tell me.

I’ll certainly listen!” he stated earnestly.

Lu Chuan picked out a strong black horse in the stables, mounted it, and left the military camp.

Charging down the town streets, Lu Chuan headed for the City Lord’s Mansion.

The streets were still sparsely populated; Tiannan City had fallen into an extended period of bleak quietness.

People were reluctant to leave their homes, fearing unnecessary trouble, unwilling to get involved in the power struggles of major forces.

The sky was dark, the air moist; Lu Chuan felt like it was about to rain.

The earthy scent of the soil permeated the air as a light rain began to drizzle from the sky.

Lu Chuan saw from afar a tea house on the street that had set up a shelter.

Under the shelter, two tables were placed.

As Lu Chuan rode by, he saw a figure quietly sipping tea at one of the tables.

“Hey, could you stop for a moment?”

Just as Lu Chuan rode past the tea house, a voice echoed in his ear.

Lu Chuan turned his head and looked around.

The voice seemed to come from behind his ears, but when he turned back, he saw nothing.

“Stop looking, I’m right here sitting down.”

Lu Chuan turned around and looked towards the figure under the teahouse awning.

They were about seven or eight meters apart, yet her gentle voice sounded as if it were right by his ear.

Lu Chuan rode his horse slowly over, dismounted, and walked into the awning.

“Did you call me?”

Lu Chuan asked tentatively.

The woman lifted her head, and her bright eyes gazed at Lu Chuan.

“That’s right, I called you.”

“What do you want with me?

I don’t know you, and I’m in a hurry.”

“Your name is Lu Chuan, isn’t it?”

She inquired.

“Yes, I am Lu Chuan.”

Lu Chuan sensed that this woman was no ordinary person and immediately pulled out a chair to sit down.

“Who are you?

Speak up!”

Lu Chuan demanded.

“Qian Sheng, did he perhaps die by your hands just now?”

She inquired.

Lu Chuan’s brow furrowed as he stared at the woman before him.

“You’re inquiring about Qian Sheng?

Do you know him?

He’s not a local from Tiannan City; he came with Nangong Qianying.

So, you must have come with them as well!”

Lu Chuan asserted confidently.

“Hehe, you seem to know quite a lot.

Qian Sheng couldn’t possibly be alive, could he?

He wouldn’t bear being captured.

If he lost, he would’ve ended it himself.”

“Rest assured, in my presence, he had no chance to end himself.”

Lu Chuan claimed confidently.

“Hehe, really?

I don’t believe you.

Qian Sheng’s defeat at your hands proves you indeed have some strength, but this doesn’t mean that no one can kill you.”

She propped her cheeks with the back of her hands, curiously watching Lu Chuan, “I’m quite eager to see for myself just what level your strength is.”

Lu Chuan smiled dismissively, “If I’m not mistaken, you must be the Black Moon Fairy?”

At these words, the woman’s face went completely still, and her gaze towards Lu Chuan gradually became incredulous.

“You…

you say I am the Black Moon Fairy?

Impossible, you couldn’t possibly know my title!”

“But I do know, and it was Qian Sheng who told me.

Is there a problem?

He told me all about Nangong Qianying, and now victory is in my hands.”

The Black Moon Fairy clenched her fists and bit out, “Impossible, Qian Sheng wouldn’t succumb!

He wouldn’t surrender to you; he’s far too proud to do such a thing under duress!”

“Is that so?

He did indeed have pride, but you see, it got shattered by me.

Any issues with that?

If you don’t believe it, you’re welcome to try as well.”

Lu Chuan stated nonchalantly.

The Black Moon Fairy suddenly stood up, taking deep breaths, clearly emotionally agitated at the moment.

“You…

what methods did you use to make it unbearable for him?”

Lu Chuan spread his hands, speaking indifferently, “Quite simple, really.

Endless torment is enough to loosen anyone’s tongue.”
