Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 580 - 540: Annihilating the Enemy with a Single Sword_1

Chapter 580: Chapter 540: Annihilating the Enemy with a Single Sword_1

Jyang Mengsheng looked down at his own hands and felt a wave of disbelief wash over him.

"Why? What the hell is happening? What did you do to me?"

"My power, why did it vanish? What on earth did you do to me, you bastard!"

He let out a hysterical roar, his most prized secret weapon had been so easily neutralized by Lu Chuan.

How could he possibly accept this calmly!

Seeing this, Lu Chuan immediately understood that this guy clearly didn’t know he was possessed by an evil spirit.

He probably still thought it was his own secret move, just a special martial arts skill.

How stupid, what kind of martial arts skill could temporarily boost someone’s strength that much?

As soon as the evil spirit was completely stripped from Jyang Mengsheng’s body, Lu Chuan used the Indestructible Golden Eye Pupil to destroy it on the spot.

Immediately afterward, Jyang Mengsheng’s body went limp, and he slumped to the ground, drenched in sweat, his face deathly pale, looking like a patient with a terminal illness.

"You... you deserve to die, what on earth did you do to me!"

He had originally thought that by activating his hidden ability, he could have easily killed Lu Chuan, and he didn’t place the remaining people of the Gu family in his eyes at all.

But now, he was completely dumbfounded that his hidden power had disappeared!

The soldiers nearby quickly gathered around Jyang Mengsheng.

"Captain, what’s wrong with you?"

"Captain, you look terrible."

"I have a Revitalizing Pill here, take it quickly."

"Captain, that sword strike just now, it didn’t hit you, did it?"

Jyang Mengsheng shouted resentfully, "All of you, get lost, take me away from here, we can’t stay any longer!"

People hurriedly helped him up and shouted, "Everyone retreat, we’ll come back when we have another chance!"

The crowd quickly came together, intending to take Jyang Mengsheng away from there.

However, just then, the Gu family members stood at the entrance of the manor, blocking all of them inside the yard.

Seeing this, Jyang Mengsheng roared furiously, "Are you Gu family trying to rebel? Do you believe the Lu family will execute all of you?"

Gu Changye stepped forward and said, "Since you’re here, don’t leave, you must pay for what you have done."

"Gu Changye, you must be sick of living, daring to speak to me like that!"

Lu Chuan stepped forward, lifting his bronze sword and pointing it at Jyang Mengsheng.

"Today, I will chop you down with this bronze sword, not just you, but also Lu Tianming, who will eventually die by my hand!"

Hearing this, Jyang Mengsheng scoffed, "Keep dreaming, you think you can tackle Lu Tianming? Even ten of you wouldn’t match him, go dream on!"

Whoosh!

Lu Chuan moved swiftly forward and stabbed his bronze sword into Jyang Mengsheng’s shoulder!

The not-so-sharp blade struggled to pierce through his clothes, inching deeper and deeper, as blood instantly began to seep out.

Jyang Mengsheng winced with pain, clenching his teeth tightly and bellowing, "Bastard, if you dare kill me, you’re dead!"

His few soldiers tried to step forward to protect Jyang Mengsheng but were blocked by Gu Changye and his men.

"Today, let the two of them settle their affairs alone, no one else may interfere!"

Gu Changye stated earnestly.

Immediately following, Jyang Mengsheng took two steps back, trying to dodge Lu Chuan’s bronze sword.

However, Lu Chuan applied force with his right hand, and the bronze sword continued to stab into his shoulder, advancing a centimeter at a time, slowly piercing through.

The intense pain that assaulted him covered Jyang Mengsheng’s forehead with beads of sweat.

"Jyang Mengsheng, today, you and your rapid advance troops will all vanish within the Gu family’s residence, and if Lu Tianming dares come, I will not spare him either!"

Hearing Lu Chuan’s words, Jyang Mengsheng immediately felt fear in his heart.

It wasn’t that he was afraid Lu Tianming would be no match.

Rather, he was afraid that he might indeed die here completely.

He still had several wives at home he had not favored, and to die in such a peripheral small city would probably mean there wouldn’t even be a decent funeral.

The wealth and honor he had earned in half a lifetime would be pleasures he would never enjoy again.

Thinking of these things, his heart ached unbearably.

"Lu Chuan, you... please spare me, I don’t want to die, I want to live!"

"Very well, tell me everything about the Lu family."

"This... this won’t do, if I talk, I will still die, and then it won’t just be me dying; my whole family will be wiped out by the Lu family."

"Lu Chuan, I’m begging you, as long as you let me go, I can help you hide your identity, so Lu Tianming won’t be able to investigate you!"

"Just fool him for a few days, and naturally, Lu Tianming will return home, and then you and the Gu family will have no more troubles."

Hearing Jyang Mengsheng’s words, Gu Changye’s eyes suddenly lit up.

"Lu Chuan, what he’s saying is of great advantage to us."

"First of all, we are definitely no match for Lu Tianming; he commands the Lu Family Army, which could flatten the whole Carefree City without an issue."

"So, if we keep fighting them head-on, we are going to end up in trouble."

"If we can cooperate, it would be the best, just to lay low until the storm passes, and you can continue to develop your potential and rapidly enhance your strength."

Gu Changye earnestly advised, "If all else fails, let him go, a bit of cooperation between us could get us through this crisis."

Jyang Mengsheng hurriedly chimed in, "The Family Head of the Gu family speaks true, you are indeed fit to be a Family Head!"

"As long as we work together, I can ensure your safety; as long as I keep up the act, Lu Tianming will have to go back sooner or later."

"That way, it’s a win-win for everyone, isn’t it wonderful?"

Lu Chuan, upon hearing this, had a grave complexion and turned to Gu Changye, cautioning him, "Your idea is too naive, how could Jyang Mengsheng possibly go back and just do as we say, helping us out?"

Gu Changye bowed his head and pondered for a moment, then said, "Our family has some poison stored away, potent enough to take effect after half a year."

"We give it to him, and if he dares to go back on his word, we’ll simply toss the antidote. That way, he’d be in the same boat as us."

Lu Chuan heard this but still shook his head, saying helplessly, "You underestimate the Lu family; the poison stash your family has is nothing in front of the Lu family’s top-tier healers."

"So, even if he returns to the Lu family, he can still live and spill everything he knows."

Gu Changye, hearing this, nodded reluctantly, "You have thought it through indeed; in that case, it seems we really can’t cooperate with him."

Gu Changye looked toward Jyang Mengsheng and coldly said, "Put him to death; this bastard dared to speak insolently and insult my daughter, I will certainly not let him die a quick death."

Lu Chuan pulled out the bronze sword, and blood flowed down the length of the blade.

"Everyone, I’ll do whatever you ask, just please spare me!"

He shouted loudly.

However, Lu Chuan paid no heed to his words and delivered another sword strike directly.

The battered bronze sword made it difficult to kill him outright.

So, one stroke after another came down, gradually hacking Jyang Mengsheng’s lower body into a bloody blur.
