Chapter 904: Taking the Lead
September 25, 2017
Lu HaiKong acknowledged his own impatience.
From the start, he knew that assuming the role of the alliance leader would be challenging, and he was prepared to be driven away.
He planned to wait until Dong Zhuo had finished tormenting the group, and then he would step in to clean up the aftermath, making it easier to gather the strength of these people.
However, Lu HaiKong underestimated the impact of his mental state. He was ready to leave even if he was humiliated, but someone's stubbornness was beyond his tolerance.
At this moment, Lu HaiKong was in a state of complete fury. In this situation, he decided to be direct and use force to gather the strength of these people.
Sitting in the leader's position, Lu HaiKong looked down at the lords below.
"Let me ask again, I am the alliance leader. Who agrees, and who disagrees?"
His intimidating aura, like a towering mountain, weighed down on the heads of all the lords present. Lu HaiKong's voice was icy cold.
Under this immense pressure, the lords below were both shocked and angry. They were amazed by Lu HaiKong's terrifying strength and furious at his domineering attitude.
But even in the face of this intimidation, the lords did not compromise.
"I disagree!"
Amidst Lu HaiKong's terrifying aura, Han Fu, the Governor of Jizhou, stepped forward. He walked towards Lu HaiKong, one step at a time.
"The alliance already has a leader, and Yuan Shu is doing a great job. We don't need a new leader."
With this enormous pressure, someone finally stood up against Lu HaiKong. The faces of the lords who disagreed relaxed a little.
However, Liu Bei and the others' expressions grew even more unpleasant. They knew all too well what Lu HaiKong was like when he was in a rage. His question of 'who agrees and who disagrees' was just a polite way of speaking.
In this situation, there was only agreement and no room for disagreement. Lu HaiKong would not allow any dissent.
As soon as Han Fu finished speaking, the atmosphere that had been soaking Lu HaiKong suddenly intensified. His icy gaze fell upon Han Fu.
"Is this your attitude of disagreement? Obviously not, right? It seems Han Fu here has a problem with me!" Lu HaiKong's tone was cold, with a hint of mockery.
As this scene unfolded, the faces of many lords changed. Yuan Shu, in particular, instantly erupted.
"Lu HaiKong, you're going too far! I'm the alliance leader!"
"You're the leader?"
Hearing this, Lu HaiKong laughed. Immediately, his gaze turned icy cold, and a terrifying aura pressed down on Yuan Shu. At the same time, Zhao Er appeared before Yuan Shu, sweeping his legs with a spear, causing Yuan Shu to kneel. Then, Zhao Er pressed the spear against Yuan Shu's back of the head.
Lu HaiKong's sudden action shocked everyone. Before, it was just an aura of intimidation, but now he had taken action, and Lu HaiKong was being utterly lawless.
However, even under Lu HaiKong's terrifying aura, the lords, though dissatisfied, did not dare to speak up.
"Do you still think you're the leader?"
Lu HaiKong glanced around, showing no intention of saving Yuan Shu. He smirked coldly.
"I disagree!"
Yuan Shu's face paled as he looked at the other lords. With a bitter smile, he stared at Lu HaiKong, his gaze equally icy.
"So what if you use this method? Under your oppression, do you really think they'll submit to you and let you be the leader? Stop dreaming. The lords here are all influential figures. How could they possibly submit to your tyranny?"
Yuan Shu's words seemed to resonate with the other lords.
After he spoke, many lords stood up against Lu HaiKong's pressure.
"Yes, Lu HaiKong, you have no right to be the leader. We absolutely will not acknowledge you!"
"Someone like you, even if you defeat Dong Zhuo, you'll just be another Dong Zhuo. We despise and disdain being associated with you."
Lu HaiKong's intimidating aura seemed to lose its effect as more and more lords stood up.
One by one, over a dozen lords emerged, their voices rising in defiance.
Seeing such a large opposition, Yuan Shu's face was a mix of bitterness and satisfaction. Even with Zhao Er's spear pressed against his head, he still looked at Lu HaiKong with a mocking smile.
It seemed he wanted to see how Lu HaiKong would handle this situation.
However, at this moment, Lu HaiKong's gaze remained icy cold, unmoved by the voices of dissent.
Chapter: The Rise of Lu HaiKong
As Lu HaiKong stood amidst the chaos, his mind focused on the task at hand. The system update flashed before his eyes, a new development that would change the course of events.
System Update:
_Your mission, 'Alliance Against Dong Zhuo,' has been modified. The alliance leader has been changed from 'Yuan Shao' to 'Lu HaiKong.' You have been granted temporary leadership authority over the alliance.
Alliance Control: Temporary leadership power. Under the premise of the alliance's goal to defeat Dong Zhuo, you can freely command the alliance's forces. (Remaining time: 15 days)
The eyes of the Outsiders widened as they witnessed the consecutive system updates. It was clear that the system was undergoing a patch, and the previous lack of this authority in Yuan Shao had left the alliance scattered and powerless against Dong Zhuo. Now, with Lu HaiKong as the new leader, the system granted him fifteen days of Alliance Control to ensure the success of their mission.
Lu HaiKong's eyes gleamed with determination as he gazed at the opposing lords, his expression turning colder by the second...
