Chapter 1345: The Dust Settles (3)
January 3rd, 2018
In the Three Kingdoms world, within Luoyang City!
If Lu Hai Kong's strike had connected, there was no doubt that Qin Shi Huang would have perished.
However, Lu Hai Kong's attack ultimately failed. Just as he breached Qin Shi Huang's defenses, Qin Shi Huang abandoned his restraint on the Peerless Warrior and redirected the Golden Figures to protect himself.
After all, with his life on the line, even killing the Peerless Warrior would be meaningless.
The two Golden Figures moved swiftly, reaching him in an instant, and simultaneously launched attacks with a combined might of 135.
Lu Hai Kong wasn't the Peerless Warrior, and despite possessing the Peerless Tyrant skill, similar to the Accumulated Counterattack, he dared not directly withstand these two powerful strikes.
Reluctantly, Lu Hai Kong had no choice but to abandon his assault on Qin Shi Huang and turn back to intercept the attacks with his Savage Wilderness Axe.
The two formidable strikes, upon landing on the Savage Wilderness Axe, were effortlessly caught by Lu Hai Kong, who then absorbed and stored their power.
Seizing the opportunity, Qin Shi Huang retreated to put some distance between them, moving out of Lu Hai Kong's attack range. He then issued a command to the two Golden Figures, "Kill him!"
As he gave the order, Qin Shi Huang turned his gaze towards the Peerless Warrior, who also happened to be looking at him.
The stare-down between these two top overlords from the foreign realm no longer carried the tension of before. Both were aware that as long as Lu Hai Kong lived, their fight held no significance.
For as long as Lu Hai Kong remained alive, neither of them could take away the Emperor's Cauldron.
"Let's strike together and finish him!" Qin Shi Huang, gazing at the Peerless Warrior, extended an invitation without a hint of the previous embarrassment from his earlier attack.
The Peerless Warrior was not surprised by Qin Shi Huang's request.
He hesitated, unsure if he should take action.
Judging by the situation, with Lu Hai Kong entangled by the two Golden Figures, if he chose to intervene, there was a good chance of slaying Lu Hai Kong. But what about after that? He didn't believe Qin Shi Huang would let him off easily.
From this perspective, the Peerless Warrior was reluctant to act. Yet, having come this far, he couldn't just leave, and this internal conflict caused his hesitation.
However, his hesitation was short-lived.
On the other side, Lu Hai Kong, entangled by the two Golden Figures, swung his Savage Wilderness Axe, unleashing the accumulated power and sending both Golden Figures flying.
Pointing the axe towards Qin Shi Huang, he coldly declared, "Strike together? Finish me off? I must say, even now, you still fail to grasp reality. You've lost, and there's not a chance for either of you to turn the tables!"
Qin Shi Huang and the Peerless Warrior's faces paled, and just as they were about to respond, a multitude of powerful auras erupted within Luoyang City.
These auras were numerous, numbering at least in the hundreds.
While not every aura was exceptionally powerful, each one exceeded a strength value of 90.
Of course, to Qin Shi Huang and the Peerless Warrior, these auras around 90 were insignificant. Despite their strengths being repeatedly weakened due to the Gateway Door, their political and martial abilities still hovered around 120.
What truly startled them were a few auras among those hundreds.
At that moment, on the other side of the Teleportation Gate, several of Lu Hai Kong's top generals had returned.
Aside from Cheng Yaojin's group of three, even Yan Liang and Wen Chou, who had slain Meng Tian, had returned.
With eight individuals possessing strength levels over a hundred, it was an enormous trouble for Qin Shi Huang and his companion at this moment.
At this juncture, the Peerless Warrior had no choice but to face this formidable lineup. With no escape route, the only way to prevent their deaths in the Three Kingdoms world was to slay Lu Hai Kong and seize the Emperor's Cauldron before Lu Hai Kong's reinforcements arrived.
With this thought in mind, Qin Shi Huang and the Peerless Warrior exchanged a glance and nodded, simultaneously charging towards Lu Hai Kong.
"In life, one is often deceived and misled. For instance, your belief that you can join forces to kill me is a grand illusion!" Lu Hai Kong coldly chuckled as he faced the oncoming Qin Shi Huang and the Peerless Warrior.
As Lu Hai Kong's cold laughter echoed, he too sprang into action. Ignoring the two golden figures rushing towards him, he spread his arms wide.
The instant Lu Hai Kong opened his arms, a powerful force surged from his heart, accompanied by an overwhelming aura.
Lu Hai Kong's aura, already formidable and domineering, reached a new height of tyranny.
As his aura surged, it seemed to drain the color from the entire world.

The soaring auras of others seemed to wither, and the entire world appeared to be left with only one figure floating in mid-air.
At this moment, both Qin Shi Huang and the Peerless Warrior, who were staring at Lu Hai Kong, erupted in fury.
Their kingly auras were severely provoked. In the instant Lu Hai Kong unleashed his aura, he assumed the posture of supreme dominance over heaven and earth—a manifestation of his kingly talent, Supreme Overlord.
The moment this talent was activated, everyone, friend or foe, experienced a 10-point reduction in strength. Even Qin Shi Huang and the Peerless Warrior, both kings themselves, were not exempt.
Their kingly status did not negate the weakening effect; on the contrary, it amplified it.
With Lu Hai Kong's Supreme Overlord activated, the political and martial strengths of Qin Shi Huang and the Peerless Warrior plummeted to a mere 100 points.
"It's over!"
This thought echoed in everyone's minds as Lu Hai Kong's Supreme Overlord took effect.
Indeed, as Lu Hai Kong's Supreme Overlord was unleashed, the battle had already been decided.
Facing the seemingly invincible Lu Hai Kong, neither Qin Shi Huang's clone nor the Peerless Warrior's clone had any chance of resistance.
With Supreme Overlord activated, Lu Hai Kong wasted no time.
In a flash, he brandished the Savage Wilderness Axe, delivering two consecutive strikes.
Despite the two clones' desperate efforts, they could not withstand the onslaught and were effortlessly slain by Lu Hai Kong.
With that, the foreign invasion came to an end.
