“Hey!

Are you insane?

Are you trying to cause trouble here?

This is the City Lord’s turf; causing trouble here is disrespecting the City Lord.

Believe it or not, our brothers here will come and take care of you!”

“Put the weapon down quickly.

If you don’t want to die, just obediently follow my orders, or you’ll suffer the consequences!”

Both of them drew their machetes, confronting Lu Chuan, ready to swing their blades to block his way at any moment.

Lu Chuan approached the two men slowly.

“Ridiculous, using the City Lord’s status to press me.

The question is, can you really suppress me?”

“What are you babbling about?

If not even the City Lord can suppress you, then who can?”

Lu Chuan continued, “The Nangong family, they’re powerful enough, right?”

“What do you mean?

Are you a person from the Nangong family?”

The two guards looked at each other, a bit bewildered as they stared at Lu Chuan.

Lu Chuan shook his head with a dismissive laugh, “Of course I’m not from the Nangong family.

I am the one who annihilated the Nangong Residence, the Nangong family has been completely wiped out in Tiannan City, understand?”

“What?”

Both were dumbfounded, looking at each other with disbelief in their eyes.

“Impossible, the Nangong family is the most thriving and strongest family within Tiannan City.

How could they be destroyed by your hand?

You must be bluffing!”

Lu Chuan didn’t want to waste words with him.

He suddenly strode forward quickly, drew out the Soul Terminating Sword, and slashed down at the two men.

Swoosh!!!

In an instant, the two men before him were slain by Lu Chuan, blood spurting out and soaking the ground.

Lu Chuan walked past the bodies and continued inside.

Lu Chuan’s killing of the two set off an uproar around him.

Screams of horror and shouts of alarm rose one after another, nonstop.

Many workers who were busy immediately dropped what they were doing and hastened to flee the place.

Lu Chuan reached the second floor and came to the Chief Caretaker’s door.

Lu Chuan kicked the door directly, sending the wooden door flying off its hinges.

Bursting through the door, the Chief Caretaker got up in a fright and confronted Lu Chuan, “What do you mean by this?

Why did you smash my door?”

He demanded loudly.

Lu Chuan rapidly approached him, swung the Soul Terminating Sword, and positioned it in front of him, “You lied to me.

If you don’t tell the truth now, I will kill you.”

“You dare!

If you kill me, the Honorable City Lord will definitely not spare you.

You’re attacking the City Lord’s ground; aren’t you afraid of offending City Lord Yuan?”

He spoke defiantly, his confidence stemming from Yuan Tiancheng.

“Even if I slaughter everyone here, Yuan Tiancheng wouldn’t dare utter a single word of nonsense in front of me.

What are you in comparison?

I could kill you with a flick of my wrist!”

The Chief Caretaker stared intently at Lu Chuan and said coldly, “Are you serious?

Killing me will bring you no good!”

“Of course, it will.

I can raid all the ore you’ve been hiding.”

“You!

Go ahead and try, I, Zhu Wu, am not afraid of you!”

He spoke through clenched teeth, his tone full of conviction, obviously not intimidated by Lu Chuan.

“Fine then, let me grant your wish!”

Lu Chuan swung the Soul Terminating Sword down towards his shoulder.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Wu immediately drew the dagger from his waist and blocked Lu Chuan’s sword with it.

Clang!!!

The weapons of both parties collided, sparking dazzling flashes.

His dagger, in his hand, only blocked for a moment before it was cut in two by Lu Chuan’s sword the next instant, the severed dagger falling in halves onto the ground.

The unstoppable blade struck down towards Zhu Wu.

Pshhh!!!

The sharp blade chopped down along his shoulder, severing his entire right arm, which fell to the ground with a thud.

Blood spurted wildly from the stump, almost instantly drenching the entire room in crimson.

“Ah!!!!”

Zhu Wu let out a severe and painful scream from his lips, the sound echoing in the room, piercing the wooden boards, and reaching room after room, allowing everyone in the mining area to hear his terrible screams.

“Ah!”

“You…

you’re crazy!

You actually chopped off my arm, you maniac!”

“What am I supposed to do now… in the future, how will I eat?

Work?

Write!

It’s all your fault; you’ll pay for this!”

Rage filled his heart, his eyes wide with fury, glaring at Lu Chuan, filled with boundless anger.

Lu Chuan looked at him indifferently as his rage erupted, “Do you want to continue?

If you do, it won’t just be an arm next time.

You’ll die, and your death will be miserable.”

“You…”

Zhu Wu’s anger abruptly ceased, and as he looked at Lu Chuan, a deep sense of powerlessness shone in his eyes.

“Fine!

You’ve got guts.

Aren’t you afraid City Lord Yuan will discard you?”

Lu Chuan stood with his hands on his hips, unconcerned, “City Lord Yuan Tiancheng is now my good friend.

If one of us has to die, it would certainly be you.”

“Impossible, when did City Lord Yuan acquire such a close friend?

How do I not know about this?”

Lu Chuan laughed, “Haha, you don’t even know what’s happening inside the city, yet you fantasize about knowing who the City Lord’s friends are.

It’s laughable indeed.”

“Right now, I can’t be bothered to waste words with you.

If you cooperate, we can carry on nicely.”

“I might spare your life, but if you don’t cooperate, then I’m sorry, I’ll make you leave this world in the most painful way.”

Having said this, Zhu Wu’s body trembled.

“I…

I’ll tell you, aren’t you looking for fire-attributed ore?

I have a treasured collection, I’ll take you to get it if you want.”

“Heh, suddenly you have it now.

You’ve deceived me, and even the City Lord as well.”

He laughed helplessly and awkwardly, “I’ve been guarding this wilderness for so many years.

It shouldn’t be a problem to take some compensation, right?

Some officials by the City Lord’s side have taken seven or eight concubines.”

“I’m still so poor that I can hardly make ends meet.

If I don’t save something now, how will I live after I retire?”

Lu Chuan patted the back of his head and said, “Stop talking nonsense, get up and take me there!”

“Alright, but…

let me bandage the wound first.”

He struggled to stand up, his already obese frame coupled with the loss of an arm, made standing extraordinarily difficult.

Dongfang Cheng stepped forward to lend a hand, pulling him up from the ground.

Dongfang Cheng also employed all his strength to pull him up.

After getting up, Zhu Wu prepared to look for medicine.

Lu Chuan spoke, “Let me help you heal the wound.”

With that, Lu Chuan lifted his left hand, from which a flame arose in his palm.

Seeing this, Dongfang Cheng quickly asked, “Lu Chuan, are you mistaken?

That’s the Divine Fire of the Sun.”
