968: Chapter 928: Rescue the Young Master of the Su Family 968: Chapter 928: Rescue the Young Master of the Su Family The two people before him plunged Lu Chuan into deep thought.

“Hey, what’s your name?”

Lu Chuan looked at him and asked.

“I…

My name is Su Meeng, and she’s Xu Ling…”

He spoke feebly.

Lu Chuan turned to look at Jyang Ran and Dongfang Cheng.

“Su Meeng?

Do you know him?”

Jyang Ran shook his head, “I haven’t heard this name.”

“Su Meeng?”

Dongfang Cheng quickly walked over to the front of the cage, “You’re not from the Su family, are you?”

Su Meeng nodded slightly, “That’s right, I’m from the Su family.”

Suddenly, Lu Chuan thought of something and quickly asked, “Su Changyue, do you know her?”

Upon hearing this, Su Meeng’s pupils suddenly dilated: “Su Changyue…

You know my sister?”

Lu Chuan shook his head with a feeling of wonder, “Is it true?

You’re actually Su Changyue’s brother; I can’t believe I’m seeing her brother here.”

Lu Chuan turned his head towards Dongfang Cheng, “Su Changyue came here, and it wasn’t just to find me!”

Dongfang Cheng took a deep breath and nodded, “That’s correct.”

“No wonder I told her to leave Tiannan City, yet she stubbornly refused to go, claiming she had other things to do.

I thought she was just trying to talk back to me, but it turns out she was telling the truth.”

Lu Chuan rubbed his forehead.

“In that case, let the people out.”

Lu Chuan shrugged his shoulders and stepped forward to unlock the cages.

Jyang Ran said with a chuckle, “That Su Changyue, she was coveting the treasure on you, and you’re still helping her?”

“Quit your nonsense; how I do things is not for you to teach.”

Jyang Ran smiled and said no more.

Lu Chuan stepped forward, opened the cage, and helped Su Meeng walk out.

After letting him lean against the cage to sit down, Lu Chuan used Nine Heavens Profound Fire to infuse his body, beginning to heal his physical injuries.

Some old injuries were more difficult to heal, so Lu Chuan could only focus on mending the new wounds for the time being.

Su Meeng felt a warm current coursing through his body, giving him a comfortable feeling all over.

Even his limbs gradually regained strength and the ability to stand up.

He looked at Lu Chuan, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

“Thank you for saving me.

I, Su Meeng, am willing to dedicate my life to repaying your favor!”

Lu Chuan withdrew his left hand and said, “First, get up and prepare to leave.

Some of the older injuries on your body can’t be healed in a short time—it’ll take some time to completely repair the accumulated damage.”

“It’s only the wounds you’ve recently sustained that I can heal quickly.

So leave this place now, and when there’s time, I’ll slowly help you recover.”

Su Meeng nodded again and again, “Yes…

I’ll do as you say!”

He turned back to look at Xu Ling and said, “Right…

and her.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, stepped forward, and infused Xu Ling’s body with Nine Heavens Profound Fire.

Xu Ling was in a coma and had been dragged out of the cage.

After being treated with the Nine Heavens Profound Fire, her wounds gradually healed and her breathing became stronger.

Her eyes slightly opened, and upon seeing Lu Chuan, she startlingly retreated again and again.

“Xu Ling, this man is our benefactor; he has come to rescue us.”

Xu Ling still looked terrified at Lu Chuan, trembling uncontrollably.

Su Meeng stepped forward and took her into his arms, beginning to whisper soothing words.

Lu Chuan stood up and turned to Jyang Ran, “You don’t know who that person is?

Does that mean Nangong Qianying has a mysterious friend who often visits him?”

“I really don’t know.

If I did, I would certainly tell you.

After all, Nangong Qianying is already dead, and I’m not afraid of offending him.”

Jyang Ran looked very seriously at Lu Chuan.

“Alright.”

Lu Chuan sighed helplessly and then scanned the entire cave.

“Do you think it’s likely that we just wait here like sitting ducks for our target?”

Upon hearing this, Jyang Ran slightly shook her head, dismissing Lu Chuan’s idea.

“That guy is so mysterious.

If you’re thinking of waiting like a sitting duck, I see it being very difficult.

The slightest hint that something’s off and he might get spooked.”

“Or maybe, the two of them have some kind of secret signal or something.

In any case, the chances of this method being successful are not great.”

Lu Chuan nodded helplessly, scanned the cave once more, and asked, “Where do you think Nangong Qianying might have hidden his most valuable items?”

“Well, I guess it should be under his bed.”

“When Qian Sheng and I came over as guests, we wandered around the entire cave, but the only place we were hurriedly shooed away from when we got too close was his bed.

We weren’t allowed to linger there.”

“I felt at that moment that there might be something hidden under his bed.”

Hearing this, Lu Chuan quickly walked towards the screen behind the bed.

Upon reaching it, Lu Chuan kicked over the wooden bed in front of him.

Then, Lu Chuan saw an iron plate with a handle on it.

Lu Chuan crouched in front of the iron plate, gripped the handle, and pulled up.

Clang!

The iron plate lifted, revealing a square pit beneath.

A treasure box with gilt decorations was placed there.

Lu Chuan picked up the box and took it out of the pit.

“This box is locked; what could be inside it?”

Lu Chuan examined the box with curiosity.

“Hey, don’t just destroy it to open it.

Otherwise, whatever’s inside could be damaged.”

Jyang Ran hastily warned him.

Lu Chuan turned back to Jyang Ran and saw her rushing over.

“Why?

Does this box have a trap?”

“This isn’t some ordinary box.

If you open it carelessly, the contents inside might be instantly destroyed.”

“I suggest you find a specialist locksmith to open the box.

Otherwise, even if you take it, it’ll be for nothing.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, tucked the box between his arm and ribs, and turned to walk towards Dongfang Cheng.

Dongfang Cheng was squatting in front of Su Meeng, handing him his water bottle.

“Let’s go, we can leave this place now.”

“Have you searched everything?

There’s still a lot of stuff we haven’t looked through here.”

Lu Chuan shook his head.

“There’s no need to keep searching.

The only thing of value here is this box, and getting our hands on this should be enough.”

Dongfang Cheng glanced at the box in Lu Chuan’s arms and asked, “What’s in the box?”

“I don’t know yet, but who cares, let’s go back and see.

By the way, take these two with us as well.

Su Changyue should still be in Tiannan City.”

“Alright, let’s head back now.”

Dongfang Cheng helped Su Meeng to his feet.

Lu Chuan turned to Jyang Ran and said, “Carry the girl on your back and bring her down the mountain.”

“I didn’t come with you to be a porter.”

She put her hands on her hips, seemingly unhappy with Lu Chuan’s commands.

“If you’re not carrying her, then just leave!”

“Hey, are you ditching me after I’ve served my purpose?

After helping you find this cave, you just let me go?”

She asked, quite dissatisfied.

“What else do you want?

I spared your life; that should be gratitude enough.

Don’t be ungrateful.”
