Chapter 1339: The Four Generals
Chapter 1339: The Four Generals
December 31, 2017
In the Three Kingdoms world, within Luoyang City!
Not long ago, Lu Hai Kong, who had been displaying his divine might and consecutively slaying Zhao Gao and Meng Yi's clones, had barely basked in his glory before he was forcefully suppressed by the Black Dragon.
The Black Dragon's outburst made Lu Hai Kong keenly aware that Emperor Qin Shi Huang's strength far exceeded his imagination. Indeed, his Martial Power had already surpassed 120, and he could effortlessly slay Zhao Gao and Meng Yi's clones. However, without the Emperor's Cauldron, Lu Hai Kong still felt somewhat inadequate when facing Emperor Qin Shi Huang.
Even in this absolute disadvantage, Lu Hai Kong boldly declared his intention to annihilate everyone.
Initially, Lu Hai Kong's words could be attributed to his arrogance and ignorance. After slaying Zhao Gao and Meng Yi's clones, one could say that Lu Hai Kong's confidence had soared alongside his newfound strength. But in this situation, where he had been brought back to reality by a severe disadvantage, Lu Hai Kong's bold statement couldn't be made without some hidden trump card.
And Lu Hai Kong's trump card soon became evident on Emperor Qin Shi Huang's face.
At this very moment, if the information Emperor Qin Shi Huang had just received were to be systemized and presented in a way most familiar to Lu Hai Kong, it would look like this:
[Your subordinate Wang Jian's clone has been slain by the enemy general Zhao Nanli, and Wang Jian's entire legion has been annihilated. The Gateway Door has been destroyed!]
[Please note that one of your Gateway Doors has been destroyed, affecting your strength to some extent. There is currently no danger of decline!]
It was precisely because of this information that Emperor Qin Shi Huang's expression drastically changed.
"What's wrong? What happened?" The change in Emperor Qin Shi Huang's demeanor immediately caught the attention of the Peerless Warrior by his side.
Emperor Qin Shi Huang glanced at the Peerless Warrior but didn't say a word to him.
After all, although they appeared to be allies, they were actually opponents. Emperor Qin Shi Huang would never tell the Peerless Warrior, "One of my general's clones has been killed by Lu Hai Kong's men, and my situation might become a little dangerous from now on."
However, just because he didn't say it didn't mean Lu Hai Kong wouldn't.
"What happened? Nothing much. My men just killed Wang Jian," Lu Hai Kong declared.
Upon hearing Lu Hai Kong's words, the Peerless Warrior's face also underwent a subtle change.
He turned his head and looked towards Emperor Qin Shi Huang, only to see that although Emperor Qin Shi Huang's expression was as calm as still water, he didn't refute Lu Hai Kong's claim.
This shocked the Peerless Warrior. As Emperor Qin Shi Huang's old rival, he was well aware of who Wang Jian was and had even crossed swords with him on numerous occasions. He knew the extent of Wang Jian's capabilities.
Even for him, in his current state, defeating Wang Jian would require considerable effort.
"Is this your backup plan? Being able to slay Wang Jian's clone is indeed impressive, but if you're counting on him to save you, you're gravely mistaken!" Emperor Qin Shi Huang took action as he noticed the Peerless Warrior's slightly altered expression.
As he spoke, the Black Dragon that had trapped Lu Hai Kong stirred once more.
Amidst Emperor Qin Shi Huang's raging anger, the Black Dragon, formed from the concentration of Black Dragon Aura, transformed. Its scales stood erect one by one, and then the terrifying scales began to move.
The sight was as if countless saws were simultaneously cutting into Lu Hai Kong's body—a powerful and brutal attack.
It was evident that Emperor Qin Shi Huang had made up his mind to kill, intending to swiftly end the battle with Lu Hai Kong.
The death of Wang Jian's clone had served as a wake-up call for Emperor Qin Shi Huang. Lu Hai Kong's strength was far beyond what he had imagined, and his desire to obtain the Emperor's Cauldron was not going to be easily fulfilled.
If they want to kill Lu Hai Kong, they must act swiftly, or else unforeseen circumstances may arise.
However, Lu Hai Kong is not an easy target to slay. This guy possesses countless formidable abilities, making it incredibly challenging to take his life.
As the Black Dragon raged, Lu Hai Kong's body emitted a dazzling purple-golden energy glow, and his Unmatched Tyrant skill was fully activated!
It is worth noting that when Lu Hai Kong's strength increased to 120, his Unmatched Tyrant skill received another boost.
At this moment, Lu Hai Kong experienced improvements in both energy absorption and power storage. Under these circumstances, to kill Lu Hai Kong, Qin Shi Huang would either need to unleash a burst of power capable of instantly defeating him or resort to a drawn-out battle, pushing Lu Hai Kong to his limits in terms of absorption and endurance.
"Are you getting anxious? But even if you panic, it's useless. You're all going to die today!"
Lu Hai Kong, trapped within the Black Dragon, spoke again, his body shimmering with purple-golden light.
However, despite being at a disadvantage and seemingly having his life at the mercy of others, Lu Hai Kong showed no sense of crisis.
Judging by his cold and arrogant words, an observer might even believe that Lu Hai Kong held the absolute upper hand.
Qin Shi Huang's expression remained as calm as still water, but he paid no heed to Lu Hai Kong's words, not even bothering to respond.
He had no time to waste on arguments or debates with Lu Hai Kong; it was better to just kill him outright.
The Black Dragon, suppressing Lu Hai Kong, grew even more ferocious, determined to crush him completely.

However, not long after the Black Dragon's increased frenzy, Qin Shi Huang's expression changed once more.
At the same time, in Youzhou, as Meng Tian's army marched west and was on its way to Right Northern Ping Prefecture, an unexpected event occurred.
Meng Tian's army was in disarray, and the cause of this chaos was two cavalry units and four fierce generals.
Unsurprisingly, the two cavalry units were Lu Hai Kong's Black Gale and Iron Blood. As for the four fierce generals, their identities were somewhat unexpected.
These four were none other than Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, Yan Liang, and Wen U, who had been sent by Lu Hai Kong half a year ago to participate in the Overpower Level 100 mission.
Their return was slightly delayed, as they only arrived on the third day after the foreign invasion began, and their landing point was Beifeng.
Although they were late, it was fortunate that they didn't miss the event entirely.
Their return gave Xun You, who was currently in charge of the battle strategy, the confidence to execute this plan.
After Xun You's analysis and confirmation from Guo Jia, these four, along with the Black Gale and Iron Blood cavalry units, lay in ambush in Youzhou.
Once Meng Tian's army reached their ambush point, the two cavalry units launched their attack.
Black Gale kept watch from the sidelines, while Iron Blood, led by the four fierce generals, charged into the midst of the foreign demon army.
Among the army, Yan Liang and Wen U took the lead.
It was unclear if it was because Yan Liang and Wen U were natives of the Three Kingdoms world, but they seemed to have received the system's favor during the Overpower Level 100 mission.
Despite performing the same task, these two experienced a significant surge in strength after completing it, now possessing a strength of around 105. But the key point was that they also possessed the Mahamayuri skill.
Together, they unleashed a combined strength of 125, and with Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao supporting them from the side, their appearance immediately plunged Meng Tian's army into a dire situation...
