Chapter 962 - 962 922 Post-War Handling

962: Chapter 922 Post-War Handling 962: Chapter 922 Post-War Handling Lu Chuan stood in front of Su Changyue, making her extremely nervous.

She kept her head bowed, not daring to glance at Lu Chuan even once.

Lu Chuan looked at her and continued his thought, “Do you understand what I’ve said?

Go back to where you came from and stop coveting what I have, or your fate will be even worse than Nangong Qianying’s.”

The threat from Lu Chuan made Su Changyue not dare to show the slightest bit of temper, and she could only nod slightly, saying helplessly, “I’m not a fool, of course, I won’t have any more thoughts about you.

However, when I go back and when I leave this place, I will make those decisions.”

Lu Chuan couldn’t be bothered to say much else and turned to walk towards Yuan Tiancheng.

“City Lord Yuan, now that the great enemy has been eliminated, I’ll leave the aftermath to you.”

Yuan Tiancheng walked briskly toward Lu Chuan, hurriedly clasped his fists and looked at Lu Chuan with sincere gratitude, “Thank you for stepping in.

Otherwise, I’m afraid I would have died here today.

No matter what, you’ve saved my life.

From now on, you are a guest of honor to me, Yuan Tiancheng.

In the whole of Tiannan City, anyone who dares to provoke you is going against me, and I’ll certainly cause trouble for them.”

He said this with utmost seriousness.

Lu Chuan nodded slightly.

“So, how do you plan to have me deal with the Nangong family’s matters next?”

After pondering for a moment, Lu Chuan said, “Go take care of their core family members.

Remember to first lock down the city.

I still need to find someone to clarify the situation regarding Nangong Qianying.”

“No problem, I’ll give orders right away.

But, who are you looking for?”

Lu Chuan continued to speak, “It’s the Black Moon Fairy whom I encountered on my way here.

If I hadn’t run into that woman, I would have arrived here earlier, and perhaps, you wouldn’t have suffered such a serious injury and such a great loss.”

“Therefore, I must capture her and deal with her once and for all.”

“If that’s the case, then I’ll give orders straight away to seal off the four main gates of the city, ensuring not even a mouse can slip out!”

He said with great earnestness.

“Good, go ahead and do so.

I won’t disrupt you any longer as I need to go into seclusion and rest for a while, first healing the injuries I have sustained,” said Lu Chuan.

“No problem,” replied Yuan Tiancheng.

After Yuan Tiancheng stepped back, he began to instruct his subordinates to clean up the mess here.

At the same time, he issued commands to the stationed army to seal off the entire Tiannan City, ensuring no one could leave today.

Lu Chuan planned to carry out a thorough search within the sealed city to capture that individual.

Returning to his guest room, Lu Chuan took off his clothes and laid both the Divine Tree branch and Soul Terminating Sword on the bed.

Then, he took out a set of clean, crisp black clothes from the wardrobe, dressed in them again, picked up the Divine Tree branch, and shouldered the Soul Terminating Sword.

In the recent battle, Lu Chuan had sustained considerable injuries, so he now needed to change into a fresh set of clothes.

Now neatly dressed, Lu Chuan washed his face and prepared to head out again.

The sky had already darkened, but Lu Chuan still wanted to visit the Nangong Residence to see if he could find the Black Moon Fairy.

If he could find her, he presumed he might learn more details regarding Nangong Qianying from her.

At the very least, Lu Chuan wanted to discover where Nangong Qianying had sequestered himself while cultivating in seclusion outside.

Nangong Qianying didn’t have anything of value on him; even after a thorough search, no treasures were found.

After all, he was also a top-tier cultivator in the Martial Saint Realm, so the treasures he had collected were certainly not few.

If he hadn’t carried them with him, then they must be hidden somewhere.

Considering his years of cultivation outside the city, he was bound to have a hideout, and his amassed treasures were surely there.

Moreover, Lu Chuan wanted to find out the nature of the relationship between Nangong Qianying and the Demonic Cultivators.

In the end, it all came down to whether he could find Li Xunying.

If he could, then he would once again have a loyal, capable assistant by his side, which would make things more convenient when handling matters.

After stepping out of the City Lord’s Mansion, Lu Chuan saw Dongfang Cheng waiting for him.

Upon seeing Lu Chuan, Dongfang Cheng hurriedly approached and asked, “Lu Chuan, I just inquired with someone and heard that the battle has ended, and Nangong Qianying is dead.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Indeed, Nangong Qianying is dead.

I am now planning to go to the Nangong Residence to clean up the rest of those people.”

“No problem, I’ll go with you.”

Lu Chuan patted his shoulder and said, “Then mount up, we are leaving right now.”

Immediately, the two of them got on their horses and headed toward the Nangong Residence.

“I heard that Nangong Qianying nearly managed to kill Yuan Tiancheng.

I didn’t expect this guy to be so powerful that even City Lord Yuan was no match for him.”

“Indeed, by the time I arrived, Yuan Tiancheng was almost certainly facing defeat, and Nangong Qianying appeared almost unscathed.

If the two had continued to fight, without a doubt, Yuan Tiancheng would have died.”

“Thank goodness, you arrived just in time.

Otherwise, Yuan Tiancheng would have certainly met his end.

Now you can say you are his lifesaver, right?” Dongfang Cheng asked.

“Of course, he even thanked me.

Now within this City Lord’s Mansion, I am held in high regard, the most valued person by Yuan Tiancheng.”

“Then doesn’t this mean we can do as we please in Tiannan City from now on?” Dongfang Cheng said with some excitement.

“We could always do as we pleased, but there’s no need.

Once we’ve achieved our goals, we can leave this place.”

Lu Chuan arrived at the entrance of the Nangong Residence on horseback.

At this moment, the entrance of the Nangong Residence seemed utterly desolate.

After dismounting, Lu Chuan slowly entered the residence.

Even the guards at the gate were gone, it looked as though the people inside had all fled.

Once inside the courtyard, Lu Chuan saw not a single soul; the place was vast and deserted, utterly bleak amidst the twilight and dusk, looking forlorn.

After entering, Lu Chuan saw a figure in the pavilion in the center of the courtyard, seemingly drinking tea.

Lu Chuan slowly approached and upon getting closer, he saw that the figure in the pavilion was a woman wearing a black dress.

The woman also looked up at Lu Chuan, her eyes devoid of any emotion, as calm as the surface of a lake.

She looked at Lu Chuan, set down her teacup, and Lu Chuan met her look with a faint smile.

“Lu Chuan, you killed Nangong Qianying.

It seems that your strength is indeed extraordinary,” she said, looking at Lu Chuan with admiration, seemingly affirming his power.

“My strength doesn’t need your appraisal.

Do you dare to stay here instead of fleeing?” Lu Chuan walked up to her.

Black Moon Fairy looked up at Lu Chuan, her eyes serene and fearless, not showing any sign of fear.

“I believe you won’t kill me,” she said.

“Heh, you think too highly of yourself.

If I wanted to kill you, it would only be a matter of lifting a finger.

Now you have no escape.”
