Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 577 - 537: Domineering Lu Family Members_1

As Jyang Mengsheng and Gu Changye were talking, Lu Chuan, accompanied by Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang, arrived at the front courtyard.

They made their way through the crowd to the center of the yard.

Jyang Mengsheng’s attention was drawn, and he turned to look.

"Who might these be?"

"This is my daughter, Gu Xiaorou, and that is my younger daughter, Gu Xiaosang."

"The daughters of the Gu family head are so beautiful, they must have many suitors, right?"

"This one is my future son-in-law."

Gu Changye looked at Lu Chuan; he was utterly puzzled. What was Lu Chuan doing coming out at this time? If he exposed himself, wouldn’t they have to start fighting right here?

Jyang Mengsheng glanced at Lu Chuan, smiled slightly, and said, "So young, yet a picture of talent. Though a bit too pretty, such types usually lack strength and talent. One must not judge by looks alone."

Gu Changye hastened to agree with a laugh, "Indeed, you are absolutely right. He’s just good-looking, without much strength. He even struggles to kill a chicken. Xiaorou fancies him purely for his looks."

"Is that so? Then I will have to teach you a lesson. In the Kunlun Domain, judging by looks alone certainly won’t do."

"Without strength, how did your family amass such wealth? Without strength, how do you ensure your own safety?"

Jyang Mengsheng looked toward Gu Xiaorou, stroking his chin thoughtfully.

"Gu Changye, do you still think your son-in-law is suitable now?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Changye was suddenly stunned. "You’re asking me this... "

"I’ll just say it outright. Your daughter Gu Xiaorou is beautiful, and her figure is even more perfect. I am thinking of taking my seventh concubine; why not let her come back with me to the Lu family?"

"I can assure her a life of endless splendor and wealth, and I can assure that your Gu family will forever dominate in Carefree City. What do you say?"

He looked at Gu Changye with a smile full of smug satisfaction.

Typically, young women in such families are used to form alliances through marriage to increase the family’s strength and influence.

As a military officer from the Lu family, coming to this remote Carefree City, taking a minor wife should be an easy affair, right? Even as the number one family in Carefree City, the Gu family had no reason to refuse outright.

Climbing aboard the vast power of the Lu family was their good fortune.

Gu Changye was immediately put in a difficult position. He definitely couldn’t agree to Jyang Mengsheng’s request, but to reject him outright could easily anger him.

So, with a helpless smile, he tried to change the subject, "It’s getting late. I’ve prepared the rooms; why don’t you go in and see if the setting is to your liking?"

"Don’t change the subject. I am asking you, do you agree or not?"

Jyang Mengsheng stepped forward, closing the distance to Gu Changye, giving him no room to maneuver.

At this moment, Gu Xiaorou felt anger boiling within her. Jyang Mengsheng was being too arrogant—this was outright bullying!

Seeing Gu Xiaorou upset, Lu Chuan patted her shoulder, consoling her, "Just stand here and watch, don’t go forward."

Having said this, Lu Chuan walked toward Jyang Mengsheng.

Jyang Mengsheng turned his head to look at Lu Chuan, suddenly interested, "Do you have business with me? Or, do you have an opinion to share?"

"Gu Xiaorou is my fiancée; she has nothing to do with you."

On hearing this, Jyang Mengsheng’s face turned cold. Since when could a worthless man speak so boldly in his presence?

"What did you just say to me? You’re looking for death!"

He said, reaching for the sword at his waist.

Lu Chuan continued, "All the people you are leading are here in this yard now, aren’t they?"

Jyang Mengsheng was taken aback, retorting, "What’s that to you? All my men are here. If you dare object, I’ll kill you!"

"Whoever dares to defy me inside the Gu family’s residence is asking for death!"

"Who dares to step forward and try!"

He roared furiously, and no one around dared to step forward, not even the several revered and experienced elders, who only dared to watch from the sidelines.

Everyone was secretly sweating for Lu Chuan.

This was a man from the Lu Family Army, with extraordinary strength. If the martial generals of the Lu family lead their troops here, leveling Carefree City wouldn’t be impossible!

If they offended Jyang Mengsheng, wouldn’t that spell doom for the Gu family?

Jyang Mengsheng continued, "Today, your fiancée must roll into my bed to warm it for me, and you must roll out of the Gu family’s residence. You are not worthy to appear before me!"

He bellowed, completely drawing his sword.

Seeing this, Lu Chuan didn’t bother with words anymore, and gripped his fists tight, ready to start fighting.

"Today, you are dead for sure, and so are all your rapid advance troops. None of you will leave the Gu family’s residence alive!"

"You dare to shout at me like this? I’ll kill you, now everyone scram!"

After Jyang Mengsheng’s roar, the surrounding crowd involuntarily took several steps back and didn’t dare to come forward, leaving the space open for the two men.

"Lu Chuan, are you really going to fight him? If you do, there’ll be no turning back!"

Gu Changye shouted at Lu Chuan.

"We already have no way back. If I’m to eliminate the Lu family, it starts with this bastard right here!"

"Did I just hear that right? He called you Lu Chuan? Your surname is Lu?"

Jyang Mengsheng looked at Lu Chuan with a surprised face.

"So what if it is? I should also tell you, it was I who killed Lu Jue, and you are the next one!"

Jyang Mengsheng took two steps back, looking at Lu Chuan with some astonishment, "Well, look at you. The murderer is you, which saves me the time of investigating!"

"Now, let me kill you and then take your head back for the reward!"

Jyang Mengsheng burst into wild laughter, and the surrounding soldiers also became incredibly excited.

They did not expect that on their very first day here, the investigation would come to a conclusive end, and the murderer had already appeared before them.

"As I said, you’re the next one. I will not only kill you, but I will also make you pay for what you’ve just said!"

Lu Chuan walked toward Jyang Mengsheng.

"Today, not a single person from the Gu family will escape. You! I have set my sights on killing you. Your fiancée will soon be mine!"

"Block the door for me. Today, nobody leaves the Gu family’s residence!"

After saying this, the men behind Jyang Mengsheng walked toward the Gu family’s main gate and blocked it, not planning to let anyone get away.

Then, Jyang Mengsheng quickly stepped forward and stabbed his longsword towards Lu Chuan.

Whoosh!

The sharp blade of the sword closed in on Lu Chuan with incredible speed, even quicker than Lu Jue had been.

His strength was probably at the Peak Martial King Realm, but as long as it was within the limits of the Martial King Realm, Lu Chuan was confident about killing him.

Immediately, Lu Chuan raised his fists, the Divine Fire of the Sun appearing on top of them.

Lu Chuan swung his fists powerfully at the sword blade.

Bang!

When the sword collided with Lu Chuan’s fist, the destructive flames of the Divine Fire of the Sun almost instantly melted Jyang Mengsheng’s sword into molten iron.

Seeing this, Jyang Mengsheng’s face showed shock.

"I thought I could kill you easily with just an ordinary sword, but it turns out, you do have some skills!"

Then, he drew a delicate precious sword from behind his back.
