731: Chapter 691: Captive of the Lu Family_1 731: Chapter 691: Captive of the Lu Family_1 Lu Chuan walked in and threw the unconscious Lu ng onto the ground.
Dongfang Cheng walked over quickly, looking completely at a loss.
“What…
what’s going on?”
“Her na is Lu ng, she’s from the Lu family, sent to track and investigate .”
“But I caught her.
When she tried to escape, she wasn’t faster than , and I easily caught up and seized her.”
“I knocked her out and then brought her back.”
Dongfang Cheng nodded slightly, “So that’s the situation…”
“Tie her up.
If the Lu family can’t find her, they’ll probably be in a panic.”
Lu Chuan shrugged, “When I ca here, I had already been spotted by the Lu family’s spies, so they should already know about Lu ng’s situation.
They’re probably panicking already.”
Dongfang Cheng scratched his head, feeling sowhat troubled for a mont, unsure of what to do.
“So, after bringing her back here, what should we do?”
Lu Chuan said disdainfully: “Keep her locked up for now, and then try to force so information out of her, we might get so useful intelligence.”
Dongfang Cheng nodded slightly, “I got it.
I will take her to the dark room and have soone guard her strictly.”
“I will starve her, let her go hungry, until she starts talking.”
Lu Chuan patted Dongfang Cheng on the shoulder, “Then I’ll leave it to you.”
“No trouble at all.
But with this developnt, I’m afraid the Lu family will start making moves against us.”
“It was bound to happen sooner or later…
no need to worry about that now.”
As he spoke, Dongfang Cheng motioned to two servants nearby, and together they lifted Lu ng’s body and headed towards the dark room in the corner.
Lu Chuan walked towards the guesthouse courtyard.
In the courtyard, Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang were sitting at a table, on which a lavish dinner was set.
Seeing Lu Chuan, Gu Xiaorou quickly stood up and greeted him with a smile, “You’re back, dinner is ready, we were just waiting for you.”
Lu Chuan walked over and saw that the dishes on the table were untouched; clearly, they had been waiting for him to return before starting to eat.
Lu Chuan sat down and said with a smile, “Today was a good catch; I actually found so of the materials needed to break the seal.”
“Really?
Then doesn’t that an we only need two more materials?”
“Isn’t there an auction tomorrow?
Let’s go check it out then.”
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Although the auction was fruitful, there were so surprises.”
“I was followed on my way back; a person dispatched by the Lu family.
I knocked that person out and brought them back.”
Gu Xiaorou was startled, and then quickly asked, “You were followed?
Doesn’t that an the Lu family already knows you ca to Myriad Stars City, and that you’re staying with the Dongfang family?”
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “They probably do know.”
“Then don’t go to the auction tomorrow.
If you go again, it might not be easy to co back.”
Gu Xiaorou looked at Lu Chuan with great concern.
Under such circumstances, if Lu Chuan dared to attend the auction held by the Lu family, it would be like walking into a tiger’s den, an act of courting death.
Lu Chuan said helplessly, “Let’s see how it goes.
There are still quite a few good items in that auction.”
“If we can gather the rest of the materials needed to break the seal, it might be worth taking the risk.”
Although Lu Chuan knew that continuing to attend the auction would be risky, if it ant unsealing the Soul Terminating Sword, it was necessary to take a chance.
After all, this was a supre Immortal Artifact, a remarkably rare existence in the entire Kunlun Domain.
After dinner, Lu Chuan left the courtyard and headed towards the dark room.
This was a corner where miscellaneous goods were piled up; generally, no one ca here, let alone lived here.
Upon his arrival, Lu Chuan saw two figures standing at the door.
The two guards were physically strong and vigilant at the door at all tis.
After Lu Chuan walked over, he looked at the two of them and said, “Open the door, I’m going in to take a look.”
“At your command!”
One of them took out a key, unlocked the iron lock behind them, and pushed the door open.
Lu Chuan entered and saw a mattress in the corner with a candle lit beside it, where Lu ng was lying.
After approaching, he squatted beside her.
Seeing her eyes slightly closed and her face pale, she looked extrely weak.
It seed his punch just now had caused her considerable discomfort.
“Lu ng, is it?
How do you feel now?”
She glanced at Lu Chuan without saying a word, still lying on the mattress.
“Haven’t had dinner, are you hungry?”
“It seems you don’t plan to talk to , do you?”
“Since that’s the case, then I’ll take this mattress away, and you can sleep on the cold floor.”
Lu ng bit her lip, her eyes fixed on Lu Chuan.
She knew she was like fish on the chopping board, completely at the rcy of others.
Her eyes fixed intently on Lu Chuan, she asked, “What do you want to do?”
“I want to know about the situation in the Lu Manor from your mouth.”
“If you cooperate with , I’ll give you so dinner to eat.”
“If you cooperate well, I’ll treat you to a big al, how about that?”
Lu ng’s face darkened, her heart seed to be struggling continuously, not knowing what to say.
“What do you want to ask?”
In the end, she had no choice but to give in.
If she didn’t cooperate, her future would be extrely miserable.
For the daughter of the Lu family to be reduced to a beggar-like existence, going hungry, was a huge fall from grace that was difficult for her to accept.
After pondering for a mont, Lu Chuan asked, “I want to know, in the Lu Manor of Myriad Stars City, who is the strongest?
What is his current level of strength?”
This information was very important to Lu Chuan.
He had to know how strong the Lu Manor really was, in order to ensure there were no risks in his actions.
“The strongest is the Manor Master of the Lu Manor, his na is Lu Wansheng, a martial artist who is proficient with spears,” she said.
“His strength is around Grade 5 of the Martial Emperor Realm, far from the Martial Saint Realm, but this level of power is considered top-tier in Myriad Stars City.”
“Moreover, he has several top-tier Magic Artifacts on him.
If he’s fully ard, his strength increases further.”
“So far, in Myriad Stars City, no one has forced him to go all out, and he has never used his full strength until now.”
Lu ng couldn’t help but sneer, “Now, you should have an idea, right?”
“The gap between you and a top-tier martial artist is still very large.
Kidnapping is useless; Lu Wansheng will kill you!”
Lu Chuan laughed coldly, “At this point, you still dare to make threats?
I see you have quite the temper.”
“But thinking about it, it makes sense, since you’re the pampered daughter of the Lu family, used to being domineering in Myriad Stars City.”
Lu Chuan continued, “When I brought you back, we were seen by the Lu family’s informants.
If I go to the auction tomorrow, I will definitely be set up and ambushed.”
“What do you think, will I go?”
Lu ng laughed mockingly, “Unless you’re crazy, you should stay hidden here until the coast is clear before you show your face again.”
“Heh, you’re wrong.
Tomorrow, I will arrive at the auction as usual.”
