Chapter 507: Prosperity Burned Down
Sizzle——!
After neutralizing Lu Bu's move with one kick, Xia Yu turned the blade upside down and slashed it across the tip of the Fang Tian Hua Ji, creating a spark.
Although he did not use his full strength, Lu Bu was still shocked when he saw his moves being easily resolved.
But he had no time to think slowly at this moment, because Xia Yu's attack had already arrived, and the sound of clashing swords resounded throughout the battlefield, like a fierce war song.
If an ordinary person were to watch the battle here, they would probably not be able to tell who was who. They would only be able to see the cold light from time to time and the gradually devastating terrain.
"Why should I bear all this alone? I already know who the evil monk named Yu Ji is. Not only me, but Hong Jing and Master also know about it. Come back and work together to deal with Yu Ji!"
During the battle, Xia Yu kept on persuading Lu Bu, but he didn't listen, as if he was not affected at all, and even the rhythm of his attack did not change.
After realizing this, Xia Yu felt a little unhappy. He had come to advise the other party in person, but the other party ignored him.
clang!!
After passing each other again, Xia Yu looked at Lu Bu with an unhappy expression and said coldly: "If you don't answer me again, I will go back and tell Hong Jing that you, the eldest brother, abandoned everyone in Tianzhu Mountain in order to enjoy all the glory and wealth."
"!!!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Lu Bu's grip on the Fang Tian Hua Ji suddenly tightened. Although he still didn't say anything, Xia Yu could already clearly feel his nervousness.
After a pause, Lu Bu finally said, "Defeat me first, or I can do it alone."
"Tsk, you."
Xia Yu let out a light sigh, agreeing to the request. After all, if you want to make a proud person bow his head, you must first convince him.
After the conversation, the two fought again. This time, Lu Bu did not hold back. The Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand was like a living thing. The tip of the halberd sometimes turned into fangs to bite, and sometimes turned into claws to strike down.
Coupled with his fierce fire energy, he directly suppressed Xia Yu and forced him to retreat step by step.
There was no way . The two of them grew up in the same school and were taught the same magic by the same master. They couldn't break each other's moves. In terms of strength and skills alone, he was a little inferior to Lu Bu.
But this is only the initial situation, the battle is always changing rapidly.
As time slowly passed, Xia Yu gradually adapted to Lu Bu's fighting rhythm, and was even able to counterattack occasionally, no longer looking like he was being suppressed.
If we continue fighting, even if we cannot necessarily defeat Lu Bu, we can still have a 50-50 chance of winning.
Lu Bu was becoming more and more surprised during the battle. It was the first time he knew that the younger brother who had followed him in the past had such a talent.
In time, the other party will definitely surpass him.
At this moment, a soldier from Dong Zhuo's army suddenly ran out from the inner gate of Hulao Pass.
"Report! All the elixirs have been transported to Meiwu!"
Hearing this, Lu Bu nodded to the soldier, looked deeply at Xia Yu, turned over, mounted the Red Hare, flicked the reins, and rode away in a cloud of dust.
Xia Yu did not chase after him. Regardless of why he would chase after him, he was alone now, without even a warhorse, so he could not catch up with him just by relying on his legs.
Not long after, Yuan Shao led the coalition forces to break through Hulao Pass. After learning that Lu Bu had retreated, he hurriedly led the coalition forces to pursue him, preparing to attack Luoyang in one fell swoop.
Luoyang was the capital of the Han Dynasty. In addition to its population of one million, it also had countless gold, silver and jewelry, enough to arouse everyone's greed.
In order to get a bite of meat in advance, the princes
All that was left were wailing and broken walls. If one wanted to steal something, they didn't know where to start. There was nothing left but the raging flames that illuminated the sky.
Looking at the raging flames under the night sky with thunder and lightning, and the demons wreaking havoc in the flames, the princes had different expressions and were silent.
"The capital was destroyed in an instant..."
Yuan Shao looked at the Luoyang City that collapsed in the flames with a blank face. Under the light of the fire, the colors in his eyes were blurred.
"Cao Cao's army will pursue Dong Zhuo on their own. Farewell."
"Sun Jian also has important matters to attend to, please excuse me first."
"Goodbye..."
"tell……"
Seeing the tragic situation in the capital Luoyang, the anti-Dong Zhuo coalition that successfully reached the capital could not help but waver. The 18 princes assembled by Yuan Shao said goodbye and left one after another.
In the end, the only ones left on the Luoyang city wall were the alliance leader Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, Xia Yu and others.
"I have one thing to say. I hope the general can help the people of the capital."
Liu Bei looked at the miserable state of Luoyang and could not help but plead with Yuan Shao. However, Yuan Shao was still shocked by the destruction of Luoyang and kept muttering that the capital city of a hundred years was so fragile...
Seeing that Yuan Shao couldn't come back to his senses for a while, Xia Yu simply stepped forward and patted Liu Bei on the shoulder, signaling them to go first. After all, looking at the current situation, no one could be relied on.
Liu Bei pondered for a few seconds and felt that what Xia Yu said was true. Now that the other princes had left, Yuan Shao was feeling uncomfortable because of his fragile heart. If they wanted to save the people of the capital, they could only rely on themselves.
After making the decision, Xia Yu and the people who stayed behind marched into the capital to wipe out the demons that were wreaking havoc in the city.
However, in the center of the city, the black-robed Taoist Yu Ji appeared again, absorbed the evil energy floating in the miserable scene, and released the demon Taotie.
Taotie is a giant demon with a human face and a sheep's body. Its huge hooves can easily crush people and houses. Its skin is covered with scary dark red dantian, and there are animal faces and arms on all four sides of its body.
Faced with such a ferocious demon, Liu Bei and others were dumbfounded, and the people of Luoyang who thought they had been saved fell into despair again.
However, this despair did not last long and disappeared completely after Taotie fell.
With the joint efforts of Xia Yu, Liu Bei and others, the demon Taotie was finally killed, and its huge corpse eventually turned into ashes and dissipated.
"In this way, the people of the capital will be saved."
After watching Taotie disappear, Liu Bei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But Xia Yu on the side said quietly: "The people of the capital have been saved, but what about the people of the world? As long as the war is not over, the people of the world will not be saved."
Without waiting for Liu Bei's answer, Xia Yu suddenly bowed and said, "Brother Xuande, I will take my leave first. I hope we will not become enemies in the future."
After saying that, Xia Yu left without looking back. In the story of Sleeping Dragon, it was Yu Ji who pretended to be Sun Jian and found the imperial seal in Luoyang city.
Now he had to find the imperial seal first. When he became emperor in the future, he would take out the seal to demonstrate his legitimacy.
Anyway, after Dong Zhuo's death, it would be an era where anyone could become emperor. He had the imperial seal, so even if he was not a relative of the Han royal family, he could still claim to be the orthodox one.
With this thought in mind, Xia Yu quickly left here.
Liu Bei looked at Xia Yu's departing back, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he just sighed and prepared to go back to report to Yuan Shao.
Half a month later, the princes left one after another, and most of them decided to return to their own territories. Seeing that the anti-Dong Zhuo coalition was in name only, the leader Yuan Shao announced the dissolution of the coalition on the grounds that the alliance had lost its purpose.
Yuan Shao himself returned to his territory with a gloomy look on his face, and secretly prepared to attack other princes to expand his territory.
Yangzhou Lujiang County, Wancheng.
Xia Yu sat in the main seat, playing with a square jade seal in his hand. The seal was four inches square, with five dragons on the top and eight seal characters "Received the Mandate from Heaven, May You Live Long and Prosper" engraved on the front.
This is the imperial seal that Xia Yu found in Luoyang. He found it by a well when the fire in the palace was still raging.
This imperial seal is the proof of the legitimacy of the emperors of all dynasties in China, and serves as a token of the "divine right of imperial power and legitimacy."
Playing with the imperial seal in his hand, Xia Yu looked puzzled. It turned out that this imperial seal was not just a token of trust. He used his true energy to sense a dragon aura inside the seal.
It sounds a bit mysterious to say that it is dragon energy, but after thinking about it, he could only think of the description of dragon energy.
Even the imperial seal with dragon energy was lost. It seems that this man has really reached the end of his rope.
After realizing that he was temporarily unable to utilize the dragon energy inside the imperial seal, Xia Yu temporarily lost interest in the seal. After all, he had not yet become emperor.
"Kong Ming, go on."
Thinking of this, Xia Yu casually threw the imperial seal to Zhuge Liang who was standing beside him. Seeing the seal flying towards him, Zhuge Liang took a breath and hurriedly stepped forward to catch it.
After catching it, Zhuge Liang felt like his heart was about to jump out. This was the imperial seal, the certificate of the emperor passed down by the First Emperor, and yet it was just thrown to him by his master.
"My lord, this is the imperial seal. You must never do this again."
"Ah, okay, okay."
After casually answering Zhuge Liang, Xia Yu stood up and walked out of the hall.
"Your master has to go out for something, so remember to manage Wancheng well. You want to be the prime minister in the future, so start training here."
Hearing this, Zhuge Liang sighed deeply. He wanted to say, "My Lord, have you ever been in charge of things? When you were here, wasn't I in charge of Wancheng?"
But even if he wanted to speak, Xia Yu couldn't hear him. At this moment, Xia Yu had already left the main hall, riding on his bicycle and heading towards Xiangyang, Nanjun, Jingzhou.
Xiangyang is located at the southern end of the Nanyang Basin, across the Han River from Fancheng, and is the largest city in Jingzhou.
It is well connected, connecting Wanwei in the north, Guanzhong in the west, controlling Jingnan in the south, and facing Jiangdong in the east. It is also a place that military strategists must fight for.
Jingzhou was the territory of Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou. Xia Yu's trip was not to find Liu Biao, but to rescue Sun Jian.
In the story of Wolong, because Sun Jian's bravery and heroic spirit in the Battle of Hulao Pass was noticed by Yu Ji, Yu Ji became interested in the special "Sun family blood".
In order to use the power of "Sun family blood", Yu Ji kidnapped Sun Jian's daughter-in-law Da Qiao and lured Sun Jian to Xiangyang, Jingzhou, which was an enemy camp.
In order to rescue Da Qiao, Sun Jian sneaked into Xiangyang City alone. Yu Ji used Da Qiao's life to force Sun Jian to join forces with him, but Sun Jian refused. So Yu Ji, who was furious, used the elixir arrow to sneak attack Sun Jian in order to wipe out the root of the problem, turning Sun Jian into a white tiger monster.
The end result was that after a fierce battle, Sun Jian was defeated by the volunteers.
The volunteers in the Wolong game can be likened to a brick. They can be moved wherever they are needed. Wherever there are monsters, there will be volunteers.
Because he had a good impression of Sun Jian and also for the sake of future alliance, Xia Yu decided to go and rescue Sun Jian.
With the accelerated flight of acid and lightning, he arrived in Xiangyang not long after.
Outside the city of Xiangyang, the Jiangdong Army was stationed, led by Sun Ce and Sun Quan. That's right, in this magical adaptation of the Three Kingdoms story, Sun Quan, who was supposed to be a ten-year-old child, is now a young man in his twenties.
At this moment, the two Sun brothers, who were originally full of high spirits, suddenly heard that their father went into the city alone, and they realized that something was wrong.
"Your wife Da Qiao was captured by the evil monk Yu Ji. In order to rescue his adopted daughter, your father has gone to the city alone. He may have already faced Yu Ji."
At this moment, Xia Yu's voice came over. Hearing this, Sun Ce turned his head in disbelief.
"What happened to Dad and Da Qiao? Who is Yu Ji?"
"Yu Ji is an evil monk who deliberately stirs up war in the world to achieve his own ambitions. In order to obtain the unique bloodline of your Sun family, he captured Da Qiao and forced your father to assist him."
Looking at the anxious expressions of the two Sun brothers, Xia Yu did not keep them in suspense, but explained to them the information he knew.
"Damn Yu Ji!"
Sun Ce clenched his fists and muttered the name through gritted teeth, while Sun Quan came up to Xia Yu and bowed.
"May I ask who you are?"
Before Xia Yu could answer, Sun Ce introduced him, "This is the hero from Hulao Pass that I told you about before. It was he who saved me from the bitter battle. My father also has a good relationship with him."
Hearing this, Sun Quan showed admiration on his face and said, "You must be the legendary Mr. Xia Zichuan, I have heard of your great name for a long time!"
"My name is Sun Quan, courtesy name Zhongmou."
Xia Yu bowed in return, and Sun Ce took the opportunity to ask: "Since you have come to tell us such important news, then why don't you come..."
"Yes, I am here to lend a helping hand." Xia Yu nodded and looked towards Xiangyang City. Under his vision enhanced by his true energy, Xiangyang City was filled with evil spirits, just like a ghost town.
Outside the city, Liu Biao also built a high platform named after his own character "Jingsheng". Judging from the remaining traces, it should have been used for a ceremony to worship the sky.
It seems that Liu Biao is not a simple person, at least not as simple as he seems .
"let's go."
Xia Yu nodded at the two Sun brothers, and walked towards the river first. The two brothers looked at each other and hurriedly followed.
Because Jingzhou was surrounded by the Jingjiang River, Xiangyang was protected by the Jingzhou navy. A forceful attack would definitely be discovered, so the only option was to sneak in secretly.
Xia Yu walked to the riverside and stepped directly onto the surface. Seeing this scene, Sun Ce and Sun Quan were not surprised yet, but an even more surprising scene appeared.
The moment Xia Yu stepped on the water, the river water suddenly froze into ice and turned into an ice surface that could be walked on. The ice surface did not continue to expand, so there was no need to worry about being discovered.
Xia Yu stood on the ice that was only wide enough for one person to pass, waved to the two brothers on the shore, then turned around and walked towards Xiangyang City again.
Seeing this, the two Sun brothers rushed up excitedly, and Sun Ce even jumped on the ice to determine the hardness of the ice.
After realizing that the ice would not break no matter how he jumped, Sun Ce looked at Xia Yu with envy. If their Sun family also possessed this ability, then their Jiangdong navy would definitely become an invincible and powerful army.
