Chapter 1199: Yu Wen Chengdu
Chapter 1199: Yu Wen Chengdu
November 6th, 2017
In the Capital Commandery's military camp in Luoyang City, within the New Northern Tower.
Cheng Yaojin, who had been urgently summoned, stood respectfully behind Lu Hailing, explaining something to him.
Lu Hailing listened quietly to Cheng Yaojin's explanation, then turned to glance at the Pet Keeper beside him, before looking back at Cheng Yaojin, and finally, he turned his gaze towards the blood-red sky above the vassal army camp.
"So, this mysterious gateway is probably a backdoor opened by that guy, and this time it's not the full-scale invasion from beyond the domain, right?"
Cheng Yaojin nodded in agreement, "Yes! The full-scale invasion hasn't officially started yet. That person definitely left this backdoor, and unless something unexpected happens, the ones who appeared this time should be our old rivals. They are the ones who were brought here by that person to disrupt the development of this world. It's just bad luck that they landed right in the middle of the vassal coalition's camp."
"As long as the Lord can defeat this army, we'll have at least three to five years to develop!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Hailing felt a sense of relief.
To be honest, ever since he gained a detailed understanding of the true situation beyond the domain and learned about the terrifying opponents there, Lu Hailing had felt a slight sense of powerlessness. The various powers beyond the domain were truly frightening.
It was precisely because he understood the terrifying nature of those beyond the domain that Lu Hailing had been so shocked when he saw the mysterious gateway descend earlier.
Even if given five years, Lu Hailing wasn't sure he could face the demons from beyond the domain, let alone now when he wasn't fully prepared. If the full-scale invasion were to happen now, it would be extremely difficult for Lu Hailing.
Compared to a complete invasion from beyond the domain, Lu Hailing found this current situation much easier to accept.
However, as Lu Hailing breathed a sigh of relief, Cheng Yaojin's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "The only uncertainty is whether that person has come along. If he has, it might be troublesome for the Lord to defeat this army."
"Who?" Lu Hailing was taken aback for a moment, and then a glint of determination flashed in his eyes, "Who?"
"Yu Wen Chengdu!" Cheng Yaojin's face turned solemn as he spoke each word with gravity.
Hearing this name, Lu Hailing's eyebrows furrowed as well.
Although Lu Hailing's understanding of the Sui and Tang Dynasties wasn't as profound as his knowledge of the Three Kingdoms, he was still well-informed about some basic information, especially regarding the Eighteen Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. While Lu Hailing might not remember all their names, he would never forget the first three.
The third was Pei Yuanqing, who had appeared in Youzhou not long ago, the first was Li Yuanba, who died in a battle against a thunder god, and the second was Yu Wen Chengdu, as Cheng Yaojin had just mentioned.
Even though this world had deviated from the original story of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the fact that Cheng Yaojin spoke with such gravity left no doubt that Yu Wen Chengdu's strength was astonishing, likely on par with Pei Yuanqing's.
Speaking of Pei Yuanqing, as Lu Hailing's strength continued to grow, he increasingly realized that there were many clues he had overlooked in his initial battle with Pei Yuanqing.
Looking back now, he could easily see that Pei Yuanqing hadn't fought with his full strength, perhaps not even using half of his power. Yu Wen Chengdu's strength was likely far greater than what Pei Yuanqing had demonstrated.
At this moment, Lu Hailing merely furrowed his brows slightly, not overly concerned. After all, he had defeated even a freak like Yu Ji, so a mere Yu Wen Chengdu wasn't something he would worry about.
However, just as Lu Hailing's frown relaxed, a terrifying aura suddenly emerged from the heavens above the outside of Luoyang City, where the coalition forces of the warlords were stationed.
This aura was filled with madness, violence, and absolute dominance. More importantly, its strength was undoubtedly at the level of breaking through a hundred realms. Sensing this power, both Lu Hailing and Cheng Yaojin were taken aback.
"Is it him?" Lu Hailing asked, his eyebrows raising as if he had made a new realization, "No, wait, this power should belong to Lu Bu!"
Lu Hailing had not engaged in many direct confrontations with Lu Bu, but he had witnessed his battles numerous times. Additionally, Lu Hailing had fought against the demonically transformed Dong Zhuo, making him very familiar with demonic energy. Thus, he instantly recognized this as the demonically transformed Lu Bu.
"Oh, Lu Bu has activated his demonic transformation. It seems we won't need to intervene in this battle." Lu Hailing said with a smile.
Ever since learning that the army from the mysterious gateway was just a small fraction of one of the forces from beyond the domain, Lu Hailing had become more relaxed and optimistic. Especially after getting a preliminary understanding of Yu Wen Chengdu's strength, he felt even more confident that he could simply observe this battle.
After all, Lu Hailing was well aware of the true strength of the coalition forces.
Not to mention the currently transformed Lu Bu, there was also Dong Zhuo behind him. When Dong Zhuo unleashed his full power, his strength was no less formidable than Lu Bu's, and he might even surpass Lu Bu.
Furthermore, with the sacred artifacts of Cao Cao and Sun Ce, as well as the hidden capabilities of the coalition forces, Lu Hailing was confident that they could defeat Yu Wen Chengdu and his forces.
