Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 965 - 965 925 In Front of the Cave

965: Chapter 925: In Front of the Cave 965: Chapter 925: In Front of the Cave On the mountain path, Jyang Ran led the way, treading upon the narrow stair-like trail through the woods.

Lu Chuan looked up at Jyang Ran and asked, “How much further?”

“Not far now, just a bit further ahead, there will be a cave, which is where Nangong Qianying used to hide.”

“That place is abundant with Spiritual Energy and suitable for cultivation.

Now that he’s dead, we can continue to use this Grotto Heavens Blessed Lands.

Whether we come here to cultivate ourselves or lease it to others, it is an excellent choice either way.”

Jyang Ran continued to ascend the mountain as she spoke.

“We are almost there, just up ahead.”

She raised her hand to point forward, and Lu Chuan followed her direction to see the outline of the cave.

Outside the cave entrance, there was a clear spring with little fish swimming freely, the spring water clean and transparent.

Lu Chuan walked slowly towards the entrance of the cave.

The entrance wasn’t large, almost exactly big enough to fit a carriage through.

“Is this his hiding place?”

Lu Chuan scanned his surroundings.

Dongfang Cheng raised both hands and exclaimed, “This place is indeed filled with Spiritual Energy, I felt this different kind of Spiritual Energy the moment I arrived.”

“If one were to cultivate here in the East, it would indeed be twice the result with half the effort.

It’s no wonder Nangong Qianying chose this place, even a Martial Emperor Realm powerhouse could cultivate rapidly here.”

Dongfang Cheng became nostalgic.

Jyang Ran stood with her arms crossed, speaking indifferently, “But it’s not just that.

The mountain is rich in resources, and a variety of spirit fruits can be easily found.

More importantly, fierce beasts are everywhere around this mountain; when hunting daily, one can also practice their skills.”

“This is indeed an excellent location.

Many people have coveted this Grotto Heavens Blessed Lands, but no one could take it away from Nangong Qianying.”

“Let’s go inside and see what’s there,” Lu Chuan suggested.

As he spoke, he walked towards the entrance.

Jyang Ran and Dongfang Cheng followed closely behind him.

Wjust reached the entrance of the cave when Lu Chuan suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps.

“Hold on,” Lu Chuan whispered, “someone is coming out!”

Both Jyang Ran and Dongfang Cheng stood still, not taking another step forward.

After waiting for a short while, Lu Chuan saw two figures slowly emerge.

The two people coming out were carrying large machetes and strolled out leisurely, talking and laughing.

These two individuals did not dress like the people of Tiannan City; one of them was draped in tiger skin, while the other wore pants made of cowhide.

Clearly, these two were mountain bandits from the area, probably having stumbled upon this cave by chance.

Lu Chuan stepped directly in front of them, blocking their path.

“Hold on a moment, you two!”

Lu Chuan stood in their way, barring their path.

Seeing this, the two men hurriedly grabbed their machetes, looking at Lu Chuan with caution.

“Who are you?

I’m warning you, don’t block our path, or you’ll regret it!” one of them shouted angrily.

Lu Chuan was, however, unimpressed, “What have you two taken from the cave?

No matter what it is, hand it over.

You have no right to take anything from here!”

“Oh, impressive talk, huh?

You dare speak to us like that, unaware of the might of the Tiger Head Gang, aren’t you?” One of them raised the machete in his hand towards Lu Chuan, speaking arrogantly.

The next moment, Lu Chuan drew his Soul Terminating Sword and decapitated the man in front of him.

Thump!

A head fell to the ground, the person in front of him died instantly.

Lu Chuan’s movements were swift like a fleeting shadow, startling the nearby mountain bandit into sheer terror.

“Ah!!

You…

who on earth are you?

Why are you attacking us?”

The remaining one had completely lost his earlier arrogance and looked at Lu Chuan with eyes full of fear.

Lu Chuan approached him, “Tell me what you’ve found inside, what did you get, hand everything over to me, or else your end will be worse than his, or, perhaps I don’t need to ask you, I could just kill you right now!”

“Don’t…

please!!

I’ll tell you, whatever you want to know, I’ll tell you everything!”

Jyang Ran came over and said, “Don’t waste words on him, just kill him as well, and then we can enter the cave.”

“Please, sirs, spare me, I’ll definitely cooperate with you!”

He fell to his knees with a thud, pleading with Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan stepped forward to him, placing the blade of his sword on the man’s neck.

“Speak, when did you find this cave, how long did you enter?

What did you find, is there anyone alive inside?”

“I…

I’ll tell you slowly.”

“We found this cave this morning, but we didn’t go in right away because there were some strange sounds coming from inside from time to time, which scared us, so we left first.”

“Then at noon, we returned to the Tiger Head Gang and told our Gang Leader about it, and then, the Gang Leader came here with people, he went into the cave, and we two only had the privilege of keeping watch outside.”

“So, I really have no idea about the situation inside.”

“Big brother, spare my life, I’m truly innocent, I don’t know anything else.

If you want to find out anything, you should just go in yourself, you won’t get anything out of me!”

His tears and snot were flowing out, and he clasped his hands in front of Lu Chuan, begging for mercy.

Lu Chuan sheathed the Soul Terminating Sword, “Get out of here, and don’t let me see you again.”

“Thank you for sparing my life, noble hero!

Thank you so much!”

He hurriedly got up from the ground and fled without saying another word, not daring to stay one moment longer, fearing that Lu Chuan might suddenly change his mind.

Jyang Ran looked up at Lu Chuan, “Aren’t you planning to kill him?”

“What good does killing him do me?”

Lu Chuan retorted.

“But, there wouldn’t be any consequences for killing him either.”

“That’s even more reason for me not to bother.”

Having said that, Lu Chuan directly walked into the cave.

Jyang Ran shook her head helplessly; it seemed she wasn’t too pleased with Lu Chuan’s decision.

If it had been her, she would have asked everything and killed them all, leaving none alive.

Lu Chuan led the way into the cave.

“I’ll make a torch; it’s too dim in here.”

Jyang Ran said as she took some kindling from her bag and picked up a stick from the ground.

“No need, I’ll take care of it.”

Lu Chuan gathered the Divine Fire of the Sun in his left hand, and with the appearance of the bright flame, the entire cave brightened up immediately.

Seeing the surroundings light up, Jyang Ran became curious.

“Your flame is really bright, what kind of fire is it that you control?

It looks very extraordinary.”

Lu Chuan simply smiled, “You don’t need to know.

Just follow me.”

They continued along the cave, the light gradually driving the darkness ahead.

Eventually, Lu Chuan saw an iron door in front of him.

“An iron door?

Behind it should be where Nangong Qianying is staying, right?”
