805: Chapter 765 Plan 805: Chapter 765 Plan In front of the stone table, Dongfang Cheng waved his hand at the caretaker, “You can leave now.”
“Yes, Young Master, please call if you need anything.”
After the caretaker turned and left, Dongfang Cheng looked at Lu Chuan and asked, “Young Master Lu, what exactly do you plan to do?
Tell me, I’ll help as much as I can.”
At that moment, Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang also came over.
“Young Master Dongfang, the Dongfang family’s residence here in Forest City is really nice, such a beautiful environment.”
Gu Xiaosang walked up to him and patted his shoulder.
“As long as you’re comfortable, you are my best friends, so naturally, I want to provide you with the best treatment.”
Gu Xiaosang said cheerfully, “By the way, do you know Dongfang Lian?”
Dongfang Cheng slightly furrowed his brow, “You met her?”
“Yes, she is really nice to me, even brought me some tasty treats.”
Dongfang Cheng nodded slightly, “She is my sister, and I haven’t seen her for many years.”
“Your sister, by blood?”
Dongfang Cheng continued nodding, “Yes, my blood sister.
She has basically been living in Forest City all along, and we don’t get along well.”
Siblings should be close, shouldn’t they?”
Dongfang Cheng hesitated, seeming not sure how to express himself.
“Just say it, what can’t you talk about?”
“She and I have major conflicts in some views!”
Lu Chuan slightly furrowed his brow, “What views?”
“On dealing with the family’s prospects, she always thinks we should reconcile with Lu Manor and not fight, even suggested to my father that we should give a significant gift to mend relations with them.”
How could the Lu family ever reconcile with us?
Ours is a feud where it’s either you die or I die; how could there be reconciliation!”
she has been in Forest City too long, her life is too comfortable, and she doesn’t understand the dangers of the outside world and the depravity of human nature.”
“I can’t persuade her.”
Dongfang Cheng shrugged helplessly.
He had been traveling outside all year round, encountering various people and situations and had come to understand the evilness of human hearts.
Thus, he was very clear that Dongfang Lian’s ideas were too idealistic.
“I see, no wonder you aren’t very close with her.”
“To say we aren’t close, that’s not quite it; when I lived in Forest City, I often played with her.”
“But as we grew up, our views increasingly diverged, and naturally, we could no longer get along.”
Dongfang Cheng looked at Lu Chuan and sincerely said, “We are the same kind, as both of us share a deadly enmity with the Lu family.
That’s why we can stick together.”
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “That’s true.”
“Let’s not talk about her anymore, it’s upsetting just to mention her.”
“Young Master Lu, dealing with Wan Changdong is a tricky issue.”
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “I’ve been thinking about it as well.”
“With their outside forces wiped out, he probably won’t find another Zhao Heihu anytime soon.”
“Now that I am personally in Forest City, Wan Changdong and Lu Baixuan must be feeling the pressure; perhaps, they will start acting as early as tomorrow morning within the city.”
“In that case, distribute more informants tomorrow, keep a close eye on the situation in the city.”
“That’s no problem, but if Wan Changdong actually advances to the Martial Saint Realm, then he’ll start targeting us.
“Don’t worry, it won’t come so fast; their human trafficking and Wan Changdong’s advancement to a higher Realm should be connected.”
“So, as long as we stop them from taking people away, we can prevent Wan Changdong from advancing to the Martial Saint Realm.”
Dongfang Cheng slapped the table in astonishment, “Well said, Young Master Lu, let’s proceed according to your analysis!”
“Tomorrow I will send someone to scout out and inform you the moment I get news!”
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, then turned to Gu Xiaorou, “How do you feel about living here?”
“No problem at all, the interior is very cozy and comfortable, much better than where I lived before.”
Gu Xiaorou said with a smile.
“By the way, Li Xunying is waiting for you in the residence, why not go see him?”
Gu Xiaosang quickly nodded and ran towards the residence.
And Li Xunying followed close behind her.
“Young Master Lu, I have been waiting for a long time.”
“Li Xunying, starting from tomorrow, you will monitor City Lord Wan Changdong for me, as well as Lu Baixuan from Lu Manor.
Report to me immediately if they make any moves!”
“With your strength, you shouldn’t be exposed, right?”
Li Xunying nodded repeatedly, “Young Master, rest assured, I will definitely complete the task you have given me.”
“Good, go rest tonight, and start tomorrow.”
Immediately, Li Xunying withdrew, disappearing into the darkness.
“Young Master Dongfang, see you tomorrow morning.”
Dongfang Cheng stood up and walked towards the gate, “Then, see you tomorrow morning.”
After Dongfang Cheng left, Gu Xiaorou and Gu Xiaosang sat next to each other, both curiously looking towards Lu Chuan.
“What’s the situation now?”
Lu Chuan sighed and said, “City Lord Wan Changdong, eager for a breakthrough, has already switched sides to the Lu family, completely aligning with them.”
Has he switched sides so thoroughly?
Even in Myriad Stars City, the City Lord wouldn’t dare to openly favor any side.”
“No choice, the temptation of the Martial Saint Realm is just too great for martial artists.”
Gu Xiaorou slightly frowned, “Then Lu Manor actually has the capability to help him break through to the Martial Saint Realm, such a capability is not ordinary.”
“So, get ready, we have to face the union of the City Lord and Lu family’s forces.”
“This is somewhat difficult.
Having just arrived in Forest City, and already facing these challenges, it seems we need to tread more cautiously moving forward.”
Gu Xiaorou nodded slightly, “Haven’t had dinner yet, right?
I’ll go heat up the food.”
She stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
Gu Xiaosang also followed closely behind and walked over.
Just then, a figure crossed the small bridge, slowly walking towards Lu Chuan.
Lu Chuan turned his head to look, noticing a woman in a blue long dress approaching.
She had a typical oval face and was quite pretty, enhanced by fine rouge, she looked quite attractive.
She walked gracefully towards Lu Chuan.
She looked at Lu Chuan and asked curiously.
“Do you need me for something?”
“I originally came to find Gu Xiaorou; since you are here, I indeed have something to discuss with you.”
“First, report your name.”
“My name is Dongfang Lian.”
“I’ve heard Gu Xiaorou mention you.
What do you want with me?”
She took a deep breath and said, “Stop fighting with the Lu family.
Continuing this fight will lead nowhere!”
“Why not lay down arms, and turn foes into friends, instead of fighting and killing, sacrificing the innocent?”
She looked at Lu Chuan and asked, “Isn’t that so?”
“You should say this to Dongfang Cheng, not me,” Lu Chuan said with a helpless smile.
