"Oh, right, there was such a thing." Chen Xi, completely oblivious to Lyu Bu’s expression, looked up and pondered for a moment, "In Luoyang, I did indeed write you a letter."

"Go to hell!" In that moment, Lyu Bu erupted like a volcano. He swung his Sky Piercer angrily, and the ground before him shattered under the strike, its formidable force hurtling straight toward Chen Xi.

"Thud!" Zhao Yun, who possessed the ability of Enlightened Heart, had an ominous hunch the moment Lyu Bu asked his question. As Lybu Bu made his move, Zhao Yun immediately intercepted with his spear, but even against Zhao Yun’s defense, the overwhelming power continued to hammer towards Chen Xi.

At the instant Lyu Bu struck, Hann Qiong was shocked and strained to shield Chen Xi’s body, to keep him unharmed. Thankfully, Zhao Yun slowed the attack momentarily, allowing Hann Qiong, with a flip, to seize Chen Xi with one hand and brandish his spear with the other, vanishing amidst Lyu Bu’s assault.

"Thud!" A thunderous roar shattered the banquet site. The next moment, Hann Qiong, dragging Chen Xi, appeared hundreds of steps away, spitting out blood, while Chen Xi remained unscathed.

"Lyu Bu, you’re dead!" As Lyu Bu struck, Guan Yu had no time to react. When the ground broke apart, Guan Yu’s eyes split with rage, his Green Dragon Crescent Blade slicing toward Lyu Bu’s neck with unparalleled might.

At the same time, Zhao Yun also thrust his spear towards Lyu Bu, no matter the reason, with this one blow, Lyu Bu had to die!

"Why, why!" Lyu Bu flailed his Sky Piercer wildly. The most ordinary moves displayed astonishing effects in his hands, completely ignoring Zhao Yun and Guan Yu’s attacks, he furiously charged toward Chen Xi’s direction, his dream shattered...

"Die!" Lyu Bu hacked madly at Guan Yu and Zhao Yun. The only hope he had to return to Bingzhou gone, he realized he couldn’t go back, never again, and he was filled with hatred. The pillar that had always supported his spirit had crumbled...

"I can’t go back, I can’t!" His frenzied moves were full of flaws, but under Lyu Bu’s overwhelming power, all flaws were insignificant. He vented his fury crazily, suppressing both Zhao Yun and Guan Yu, inching murderously toward Chen Xi.

Zhang Liao was dumbstruck. What was going on? After that strike from Lyu Bu, his mind was in a muddle. Weren’t they still enjoying wine and pleasant conversation just before? Weren’t they still meeting with smiling faces? How did it suddenly turn into this situation? What had happened in between? Could he have misheard something?

"Zhongkang, thank you." Guo Jia, pale-faced, said to Xuu Zhu who had protected him, noticing the blood dripping from Xuu Zhu’s body.

"As long as Military Advisor Guo is unharmed, that is what matters," Xuu Zhu said, after tending to his wound and looking at Guo Jia, who was only a bit disheveled. After Lyu Bu’s halberd strike, Xuu Zhu’s mind went blank; he couldn’t understand this sudden change in the situation. Had he missed something?

But no matter whether he missed something or not, the moment Lyu Bu’s strike came, Xuu Zhu immediately threw himself towards Guo Jia, determined to save at least one person. He erupted his Inner Qi to protect both himself and Guo Jia. Even though Lyu Bu hadn’t targeted Guo Jia, the residual force reached them, causing Xuu Zhu considerable injury, and blood streamed down incessantly.

"Where’s Zichuan?" Guo Jia exclaimed, seeing a vast chasm suddenly beside him.

"Old Hann has already rescued the military advisor," Xuu Zhu indicated another direction.

"Lyu Bu really turns against someone just like that. Well, if that’s the case, then I cannot be blamed. I had intended to give him a chance to live, considering his bravery and prowess. Now, go to hell. The army will be mobilized to come here, and Zichuan and I will leave this place first," said Guo Jia, his complexion pale and a flash of cold light in his eyes. Any respect he had for Lyu Bu was now transformed into shame and vexation, and he was determined to kill Lyu Bu.

"Xuu Zhu, prepare to die!" As Xuu Zhu picked up his great sword and glanced around, he saw Zhang Liao standing in the center of the field, ready to strike, and became furious. Swinging his great sword, he charged at Zhang Liao, who seemed to be frozen in shock like a proverbial sitting duck.

"Clang!" As Xuu Chu charged forward, Zhang Liao hadn’t even reacted yet, and with a single slash, Xuu Chu sent him flying. It was only then that Zhang Liao came to his senses, cursing inwardly. He had no idea what had gotten into Lyu Bu to cause such a sudden change.

"Zhongkang, let’s talk this through!" Zhang Liao parried Xuu Chu’s attack with his long spear and immediately called out.

"Go to hell, I’ll chop you, you bastard!" Xuu Zhu, blinded by rage, swung his great sword at Zhang Liao again.

"This was just an accident..." Zhang Liao parried another blow from Xuu Zhu’s great sword and hurriedly tried to explain.

"Me chopping you will be an accident too!" Xuu Zhu raged on, not slowing his attacks against Zhang Liao.

"I don’t know what happened either!" Zhang Liao dodged another one of Xuu Zhu’s attacks and continued to try to explain.

"Killing you will let me find out!" Xuu Zhu completely ignored Zhang Liao’s explanations and kept on slashing at him.

"Old Hann, are you alright!" Chen Xi asked as he turned to Old Hann, who stood beside him leaning on his long spear and spitting out mouthfuls of blood. He couldn’t stay calm anymore. What the hell was going on? Weren’t they just talking things out nicely before? How did it suddenly turn into this? Did Lyu Bu take the wrong medicine, or was he sick?

"I won’t die, thankfully you’re unharmed!" Hann Qiong waved his hand in response.

Just moments earlier, Hann Qiong had utilized a secret technique that nearly resembled teleportation, pulling himself several hundred meters away. More importantly, he used most of his Inner Qi to protect Chen Xi from getting injured, neglecting to fortify himself. Such a move had caused severe internal injuries.

"Good, that’s good." Seeing Hann Qiong’s complexion rapidly recovering, Chen Xi felt relieved, "What’s with Lyu Bu, why did he suddenly attack me!"

"Avoid doing such things in the future, that’ll be the greatest help for me. Luckily, Zilong reacted quickly; otherwise, even I couldn’t have guaranteed your safety. Lyu Bu, that brat, is no good at all, disloyal, unfilial, and lacking the grace of a martial artist!" After regaining his composure, Old Hann began to catch his breath rapidly and looked back at Chen Xi to warn him.

"I understand, I won’t do it again. I didn’t expect Lyu Bu to attack suddenly either!" Chen Xi nodded and then, despite himself, began to defend his actions.

"Who knows what he’s thinking!" Hann Qiong snorted coldly and thrust his spear as he joined the fray among Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, and Lyu Bu.

"Why, why, why did you betray me!" Lyu Bu attacked Guan Yu and Zhao Yun furiously. His dream of returning to Bingzhou was shattered, the last vestige of hope crumbled; there was no going back, never again.

"Lyu Bu, what the hell are you talking about!" Chen Xi screamed towards Lyu Bu, "When did I ever deceive you? Your pride from before, your spirit, where did they go? Now what difference is there between you and a madman? What on earth are you talking about!"(Great opportunities with goodies falling from the sky – cool smartphones waiting for you!
