People always have various obsessions, and returning to Bingzhou with the sons of Bingzhou had always been Lyu Bu’s obsession. However, as the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry fell one by one, this shallow obsession became something he least wanted to mention, and his most vulnerable point.

But this vulnerability was shrouded by Lyu Bu’s overwhelmingly strong ability, thus unknown to others. Nevertheless, an obsession is an obsession, regardless of whether one wishes to bring it up — it simply exists until something triggers it one day.

On this particular day, a letter from Chen Xi completely ignited Lyu Bu’s buried obsession, allowing him to see a glimmer of light in the darkness. It was this ray of dawn that cracked his tough exterior, and through this crack, Zhang Liao saw a different side of Lyu Bu.

Perhaps at any other time, even if Zhang Liao knew this other side, telling Lyu Bu to ask for himself wouldn’t have had any effect — it might even anger Lyu Bu. But this day was different.

Lyu Bu had always harbored hope for returning to Bingzhou, but as that hope grew fainter, he gradually succumbed to despair and self-abandonment. Chen Xi’s letter reignited his hope for a moment, only for the subsequent response to utterly shatter his heart spirit.

At this time, Lyu Bu was like a drowning victim, but Zhang Liao’s words once again gave him hope. Perhaps at another time, his words would have been dismissed as if a breeze by the ear, but at this moment, to Lyu Bu, they served as a wake-up call, as urgent as the morning bell and evening drum.

No matter how slim the hope, hope is still hope. For Lyu Bu, even a sliver of hope was all he had left to cling to, now that there was no other choice.

"Wen Yuan, let’s go!" Lyu Bu grasped the Sky Piercer with one hand. Though his armor was tattered, it couldn’t hide his incomparable aura. As long as the heart remains unyielding and the spirit undying, no one under the heavens can defeat him!

Zhang Liao blocked Xuu Chu with his lance and retreated. At this moment, he could see the approaching army, thankful that Lyu Bu had finally come to a realization. If it had been even a moment later, they definitely would have been surrounded and captured without a chance to fight back.

"Go!" Seeing Lyu Bu return to normal, Zhang Liao felt joy in his heart, as he too had dreamed many times of returning to Bingzhou — perhaps this time, they really could return.

Zhao Yun and Guan Yu exchanged looks, vaguely grasping that Lyu Bu was a pitiful person as well.

"Not able to return to Bingzhou? So close, yet so simple, unable to take that step, how laughable!" Guan Yu’s face wore a cold arrogance, but deep down, he somehow understood. Perhaps one day, if he found himself in the same situation, he probably wouldn’t return either. Proud as he was, after letting down others, he likely wouldn’t look back.

"That Zhang Wenyuan is a tough nut, not the kind you handle carelessly. If he hadn’t held back today, I might have been injured," Xuu Chu said with a wry laugh after watching Lyu Bu and Zhang Liao leave.

"The Qi is persistent. What’s most troublesome about him is that unless you defeat him quickly, he might just drag you to exhaustion," sighed Zhao Yun. "It’s a pity that although his inner Qi is abundant, it doesn’t have much lethal power even when unleashed."

"Zilong, Yunchang, Zhongkang, Old Hann, are you all right?" At this time, Chen Xi had already led his troops charging over.

"Thank you for your concern, strategist," everyone replied, while Hann Qiong simply vanished, which was also a sign that he was unharmed.

"This Lyu Bu is really troublesome; if he wants to leave, just leave. I’m sorry for the trouble," Chen Xi sighed and said, regarding Lyu Bu’s absence there wasn’t anything to be suspicious of—Chen Xi had seen the monster himself; that guy simply couldn’t be kept around.

"No, it’s that we didn’t try our best to keep him," Zhao Yun shook his head and said, "Lyu Bu may be brave, but under the loss of Heart Spirit, he isn’t a match for the three of us—and it’s not completely impossible to stop him by expending some effort."

"There’s no need for that; what you did was right. We’ll settle this score when we meet on the battlefield," Chen Xi smiled and didn’t care. Zhao Yun has always been like this, taking blame upon himself.

"You’re right, Lyu Bu is indeed unrivaled, but it’s not impossible to kill him—using life to fill in the gap is just a last resort. We have plenty of methods. King Xiang’s valor surpassed that of the present-day Lyu Bu by threefold, yet he was still plotted against and killed," Guo Jia came over at this time and said with a sly smile. Lyu Bu had really offended him.

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun exchanged glances, Zhao Yun stepped forward and then repeated verbatim the words Lyu Bu and Zhang Liao had said without adding any of his own judgment.

After listening, Chen Xi’s face became almost as black as the bottom of a pot, and Guo Jia’s face was pretty much the same. The two looked at each other and both understood.

"Alas, it’s all about timing and fate!" Guo Jia sighed.

"Let it be, we’ll see what choice Lyu Bu makes. But if things go as expected, his choice will likely be to our advantage. Nevertheless, let’s get ready; our war with Yuan Shao might be about to officially start," Chen Xi looked up to the heavens and sighed deeply. Such a stroke of bad luck.

"But it’s better this way; it saves us from wasting time," Guo Jia also sighed.

Guo Jia, who had a good grasp of human nature, naturally had an estimate of Lyu Bu’s choices, and as for Chen Gong’s issue, as expected, Chen Gong would follow Lyu Bu. Even if Lyu Bu were to claim it was all his own doing 99% of the time, Chen Gong would still follow him.

"But we can’t let Lyu Bu’s actions slide, he actually made such a vicious move against me!" Chen Xi said with an unhappy expression. That hit previously was a solid one; had it landed, Chen Xi would have certainly turned into a mist of blood.

"The overall situation is what matters," Guo Jia spread his hands.

"I know, so I’ll wait to deal with it later. As for now, let’s teach Tian Feng a lesson as a way of creating an opportunity for Lyu Bu," Chen Xi said with a smile, "Let’s hope Tian Feng doesn’t get too surprised!"

"I was thinking the same thing. That bastard Lyu Bu wanted to kill you and even dragged me into it. Since that’s the case, let’s make it harder for him. I believe Chen Gongtai, with his exceptional talent, should be able to handle this matter!" Guo Jia nodded in agreement. There was no way to forcefully attack Lyu Bu at this time, as he had said— the overall situation is what matters.

"Let’s talk about it later. I didn’t expect Lyu Bu to have such a side; perhaps we will have our chance to deal with him later. Let’s wait and see what he really thinks about Bingzhou. If suitable, I think we’ll get him sooner or later," Chen Xi waved his hand, no longer wanting to discuss the past events. Being nearly chopped to death by Lyu Bu was a truly terrifying thing.

"Indeed, ambitIon is not to be feared; my concern before that Lord Xuande couldn’t control him was because Lyu Bu has no bottom line or principle. This way is also good, for a martial gathering to end like this, but next time I definitely won’t attend such a gathering," Guo Jia first looked emotional and then, recalling the unfortunate event, decisively felt as if he had swallowed a fly.

"I won’t host such gatherings in the future either, too dangerous," Chen Xi glanced at Guo Jia, also looking very much alarmed. (A great event is falling from the sky— cool mobile phones await you!
