967: 927 Chapter Grotto Heavens Blessed Lands 967: 927 Chapter Grotto Heavens Blessed Lands The Tiger Head Gang leader in front of him had become much more sensible, realizing he was no match for Lu Chuan and immediately chose to submit.

He looked towards Lu Chuan with an awkward smile.

“Big brother, my attitude was not good earlier, please forgive me.”

Smiling awkwardly, he even lowered his stature considerably, not daring to stand up straight in front of Lu Chuan.

“Didn’t expect you to come to your senses so soon, you’re really cut out to be a gang leader.”

“Since that’s the case, I might consider, letting you off the hook.”

Upon hearing this, the other party immediately became excited, “Really?

That’s great, thank you for your mercy!”

He thanked him sincerely.

The two underlings behind him were extremely tense at this moment; with their boss so down and out, they naturally didn’t dare to show any backbone.

Lu Chuan looked at him and asked, “What have you taken?

Bring everything out.”

“No problem, this is your stuff, I definitely won’t take it away.”

He hurriedly pulled out some jewels from the bundle behind him.

“These are the jewels and gold I found from the bedside cabinet, each one valuable.

Selling these could fetch quite a bit of money!”

He said excitedly, but after finishing, his expression became despondent.

Thinking back to how excited and thrilled he had felt upon discovering the jewels, and now he had to hand them all over to someone else.

“Is this everything?”

“Yes, these are the most valuable things I took, the most valuable ones.”

Lu Chuan shook his head resignedly, “Mountain bandits are mountain bandits after all, only interested in money, since it’s what you live on.”

“If you had a wider vision, or greater strength, you wouldn’t need to mix it up in the mountains.

Establishing a family of some scale in the city would be much more comfortable than in these wild mountains and ridges.”

The Tiger Head Gang leader could tell that Lu Chuan was belittling him, and he could only smile awkwardly again.

Lu Chuan turned to Dongfang Cheng, “You pack up these things and take them back.”

“Young Master Lu, I don’t lack this little bit of money either.”

“It’s still worthwhile to earn a bit, don’t waste it.

I’ll keep looking around here for other things.”

Lu Chuan looked around.

Jyang Ran turned to the Tiger Head Gang leader and scolded, “You three, stand here and don’t move until we say you can go!”

The three of them immediately lowered their heads, not daring to say another word.

Lu Chuan quickly walked towards the iron cage and arrived beside it.

He opened the cage door and let one person out.

This person’s figure was more like Li Xunying’s; after dragging him out, his features confirmed it was indeed Li Xunying.

“Hey, wake up, are you still alive?”

Lu Chuan put his finger under his nose and not feeling any breath, he then felt his pulse.

The pulse was weak but still there.

Lu Chuan quickly infused him with Nine Heavens Profound Fire, the flames filled his entire body, warming him, as the injuries on his body started to heal.

“Lu Chuan, can he be saved?” Dongfang Cheng hurried back.

“Don’t know, he might be, there is still a breath left in him.

But his injuries are severe, it’s hard to say.”

At that moment, Li Xunying slowly opened his eyes.

He tried to open his lips but couldn’t make a sound.

Lu Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly, “There’s a cut in his throat, he’s been rendered mute.”

Lu Chuan continued to examine him and saw the dense wounds on his body, dripping with blood, with flesh and clothing stuck together.

Pulling on the clothes even slightly would rip off layers of minced flesh.

Lu Chuan took a deep breath, “I knew that bastard wouldn’t treat you well.”

“Lu…

Young Master Lu, I heard what you just said, you’ve killed Nangong Qianying, you’ve fulfilled your promise to me.”

“Thank you for being willing to help me avenge this, I can face my deceased brothers now!”

“During this time of torment, I haven’t endured in vain, now, my wish has been fulfilled, if there is an afterlife, I will follow you then!”

A soul body emerged from within his body, hovered in the air, and said to Lu Chuan the words just spoken.

Lu Chuan sighed helplessly, “Goodbye!”

Immediately, Li Xunying’s soul body dissipated into nothingness, completely leaving this place.

Lu Chuan got up and walked toward Dongfang Cheng.

“Li Xunying is dead?”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “His flesh has been completely damaged, there’s no possibility of repair.

If it were an injury just inflicted, I could still heal it, but these kinds of accumulated wounds, after he has tried to heal them himself once, I can’t do anything further.”

Dongfang Cheng nodded understandingly, “I see, so it means, injuries can be healed by oneself or by you, but if one has already healed themselves before you could, then there’s no longer any possibility of healing.”

“That’s about it, at least, he fulfilled his wish before death.”

Jyang Ran looked toward the cages beside them, “It’s not just Li Xunying in here, there are others as well.”

Lu Chuan walked toward the iron cages, five in total; two were empty, and the other three held people.

The people were curled up inside, and it was faintly visible that they were shaking.

“Hey, can you hear me?

Give me a response.”

Lu Chuan stood in front of a cage and asked.

However, the two people in the cages gave no response.

“Alright, this is your last chance to live, if you’re willing to talk to me, I’ll give you a chance to survive.

If not, then forget it, you can die here.”

“Don’t…”

As Lu Chuan turned to leave, he heard a faint voice.

Lu Chuan squatted in front of the cage, and continued, “Turn your body around.”

The person clad in black turned their body around.

Like Li Xunying, they were covered in wounds, bloodied all over, with no patch of unharmed flesh visible.

By appearance, they looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old child.

“You’re young, when were you locked up here?”

“I…

I don’t know, I lost track of how many days have gone by.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, in such a dark cave, it’s indeed impossible to sense the passage of time.

“How were you captured?”

“I…

I came to Tiannan City with my fiancée to have fun.

We were playing in the mountains when suddenly someone knocked us out…”

Lu Chuan looked towards the cage at the back, “Is that your fiancée?”

The boy nodded faintly, with tears welling up in his eyes.

“And then?”

“After that, we became the playthings of that monster.”

Lu Chuan took a deep breath, “The monster you’re talking about is Nangong Qianying, right?”

“No…

not him, his body is failing.

It’s another person, his friend…”

Lu Chuan’s brows immediately furrowed, “What do you mean?

Not Nangong Qianying?

Who else could it be?

That bastard Qian Sheng?”

Jyang Ran came over, immediately denied, “It couldn’t be Qian Sheng, I came all the way here with him.

I know exactly what he has done here, and the relationship between him and Nangong Qianying isn’t that deep.”

“Then who could it be?”

Lu Chuan fell into deep thought.
