Chapter 918: The Reappearance of the Crimson Heaven
In this world, few dared to challenge Lu Hai Kong.
Even with ten elite warriors with strength over 90 following Lu Hai Kong, it was still a bold move to ask for a favor from him.
When Lu Hai Kong saw Zhang Jiao, his face darkened, as he clearly understood the nature of this matter had completely changed.
Having regained his memory, Lu Hai Kong was well aware that this Zhang Tianshi was up to something.
That guy was playing with fate, but the fellow in front of him was genuinely doing it, Lu Hai Kong was certain of that.
As for what Dong Zhuo was doing inside, Lu Hai Kong could more or less guess.
"I should've thought of this earlier." Lu Hai Kong stared at Zhang Jiao, halting his steps. "What's going on with Dong Zhuo and you being allies?"
"We're not exactly allies, but given his current situation, I can't help but want to help him." Zhang Jiao replied.
Lu Hai Kong felt something was amiss, but after hesitating for a moment, he spoke up. "You're playing with fire! You dare to show up at this time! Fine, since you've come out, I'll give you some face. Open a passage and let's leave, and that's the end of it!"
He was well aware that this was no longer a mission or a matter of the world's fate, but a matter of another level.
Upon realizing he had no ability to interfere, Lu Hai Kong chose to retreat.
"A very wise choice. I'll prepare to send you out!"
Hearing this, Zhang Jiao's lips curled into a satisfied smile, and with a wave of his hand, he prepared to do something.
Just at that moment, a majestic sword aura soared into the sky from within the Luoyang Imperial Palace.
Sensing that sword aura, Lu Hai Kong's face changed, Yue'er, why did you choose this moment to come out?
That sword aura's appearance also caught Zhang Jiao's attention, and he noticed that after the sword aura emerged, Lu Hai Kong was completely different from before.
Although Lu Hai Kong's face turned grim, after the sword aura's emergence, he no longer had any intention of leaving.
As the sword aura soared, Zhang Jiao's expression shifted, and he clearly realized that Lu Hai Kong was no longer the same after the sword aura's appearance.
Despite Lu Hai Kong's grim expression, when the sword aura appeared, he had completely lost the desire to leave.
"Since it's come to this, then you go in. Just remember to be careful." Zhang Jiao said, waving his hand, and directly turned to leave.
Lu Hai Kong was stunned, Zhang Jiao had not shown himself for a long time, and at this moment, he dared to appear despite the risk of being spotted by the system. Was Zhang Jiao going to let him go just like that? How had he become so easygoing? Lu Hai Kong was about to speak when his follower, Dian Wei, called out from behind.
"Master, you've been standing here for a long time. Did you see something?" Dian Wei's sudden question was like a slap in the face, instantly pulling Lu Hai Kong out of the realistic illusion he was in. When Lu Hai Kong turned back to look at the group of confused warriors behind him, he finally understood.
Zhang Jiao had not truly shown himself, just like before, he had pulled Lu Hai Kong into the illusion. Realizing this, Lu Hai Kong's eyes narrowed.
"I thought Zhang Jiao was so powerful, but he's already reached the point of challenging the system headon. It seems he's been hiding and not daring to show himself!"
Lu Hai Kong finally understood Zhang Jiao's good intentions, this fellow had been playing hardtoget from the start, and his appearance was just to coax Lu Hai Kong away. Upon discovering he couldn't be coaxed, Zhang Jiao directly left.
As the sun set over the majestic imperial palace, casting a crimson hue across the sky, the atmosphere within the palace was tense and heavy. In the study room, a group of elite officials gathered, their faces grim as they discussed the recent events and the looming crisis.
"We must act swiftly," declared one of the officials, his voice filled with determination. "The Emperor's edict is clear. We cannot allow that traitor, Dong Zhuo, to seize control. We must rally our forces and strike before he can fully unleash his plans."
The group nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with a mix of worry and resolve. They knew the task ahead was challenging, but their loyalty to the Emperor and the empire drove them forward.
"We will mobilize our troops and prepare for battle," another official suggested, his voice steady. "Our armies are strong, and with the Emperor's blessing, we will prevail."
The group dispersed, each tasked with their own responsibilities, determined to protect the empire and restore order to the land.
Meanwhile, in a secluded chamber within the palace, a figure sat alone, their eyes closed in deep concentration. This person, known as Li Ru, was a master strategist and a key player in the unfolding events. Li Ru's mind raced with calculations and plans, each move carefully considered to ensure the success of their grand scheme.
"The time has come," Li Ru whispered, a sinister smile creeping across their face. "With the Emperor's power and my strategies, we will reshape the destiny of this empire."
Li Ru's fingers danced across a table, each movement calculated and precise, as they prepared for the final act of their plan.
