Chapter 317
Chapter 317 – Group Fight at Hulao Gate
Tong allowed Guan Yu to head out . He smiled and gave a toast to this future God of Loyalty .
"I pray for your victory . "
Guan Yu also raised his wine cup, "I shall come back before this wine turns cold . "
Tong chuckled . He nodded and sent Guan Yu on his way, knowing that this would be different from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms story .
’Khan has 10 Lu Bus . The same trick won’t happen . Jiang Man will be forced to reveal his hands . ’
He sat back and relaxed as he was looking forward to seeing the show .
...
Guan Yu rode forward . He and his signature weapon, the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, caught the eyes of Khan in an instant .
Khan would never forget this man . He was the brother of the fox who coaxed Cao Cao into killing him in his previous life .
"Ah, Guan Yu . I never fought you in my previous life, yet our descendants made a novel about our bout . Let’s see how you fare in reality . Number 10, go out again!"
Lu Bu’s clone number 10 rode out to fight Guan Yu . As they rode toward each other, they did not bother introducing themselves .
The eye contact and the body language gave it away . They wanted a good fight .
"Hah!"
"Ora!"
*CLANK*
As two riders crossed each other, their weapons collided .
"Humph!"
"Again!"
*CLANK*
*BANG*
*CLANK*
10 Blows, 20 blows, 50 blows, after all the exchanges, they could not take the other down . However, Guan Yu could sense that he was not the clone’s match .
After the 80th blow, Guan Yu revealed a sign of fatigue as he faltered backward, leaning back on his horse after a clash of weapon .
"Yuncheng! Damn it! I’m going to help!"
As in the novel, Zhang Fei rode out to help Guan Yu .
Seeing his third brother heading out, Liu Bei also followed after Zhang Fei, so did Jiang Man .
Unfortunately, Khan had prepared against this scenario .
"There they are . Number Nine, Number Eight, Number Seven, go and intercept those fools . "
Three more clones rushed to the battlefield, beelining toward the oncoming brothers of Guan Yu .
In the novel, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Liu Bei fended off Lu Bu, which forced him to retreat back to Hulao Gate .
But the same trick could not be used here!
Meanwhile, Zhang Fei managed to rescue his older brother, but he saw three riders coming toward them .
Zhang Fei had to defend himself against the new participants .
"A group fight? Bring it, barbarians!"
Jiang Man, who chased after Zhang Fei, also had a company .
*CLANK*
Jiang Man raised his halberd and managed to block the strike of Number Seven clone in time . Although his hands and arms got numb from one blow, he could still survive on his own .
Zhang Fei and Jiang Man had no problem receiving the first strike of the men . Unfortunately, Liu Bei was not a good fighter .
*BANG*
Liu Bei was sent flying off his horse . Number Nine clone did not have a problem about single out the weakest link .
"Xuande!"
"First brother!"
"Shit!"
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei could not get back in time . At this rate, Number Nine would skewer Liu Bei and ended the legend of Shu Kingdom .
"Not on my watch! [K], go!"
[Kindness] Soul of Jiang Man came forth and chased after Number Nine .
The clone sensed the transparent spirit . He turned around with a sweep strike motion, aiming to cut Jiang Man’s soul in half .
The crescent halberd went through the soul but did not cause any damage . Instead, Number Nine lost the initiative because of the big move .
As a soul, [Kindness] could not be harmed with physical attacks by any conventional weaponry . On the other hand, it could kill a mortal as long as it could reach the body of the victim .
The hand of [Kindness] went through the chest of Number Nine, which it got a hold of his heart . Without hesitation, the soul temporarily manifested the hand to the physical realm and clenched it .
Number Nine’s body shook while it stared into the empty eyes of the ghost in shock . He lost all of his strength, falling down from his horse .
One Lu Bu had been killed!
Khan had seen everything from the start to the end . He smirked as he summoned all of his souls as well .
"Otherworlders can only be killed by another otherworlder . I don’t know who you are, but you’re my prey!"
Khan gestured to all of his clones . He also waved his hands to send all his souls toward the battlefield .
All clones rushed at the three brothers while the four spirits headed toward Jiang Man .
...
Tong could not stop smiling from the sight of the struggle as he was hoping that Jiang Man could get himself killed today .
’Well, it’s a matter of times that everyone and their grandmothers will get angelic wings or demon wings . Having one or two right now doesn’t really matter . Now, what are you waiting for, Khan? Kill him for me! Heck, kill Liu Bei and his goons now, so I won’t have to dirty my hands on this false saint!’
While Tong was cheering for the clones, Pu Jing had another thought .
’If Cao Cao and I join forces with Zhang Tong, both Liu Bei and Jiang Man can be a nuisance . But if I want to get back to power, I need Zhang Tong to die . Well, it’s unlikely that Zhang Tong will give up the throne for Cao Cao since he can easily defeat anyone by force . I should at least try to ally with those incompetence idiots and sabotage Zhang Tong’s growth . ’
Thinking this far, Pu Jing turned to Cao Cao and whispered to him .
"Let’s save those men . We can ally with them to stop Zhang Tong’s growth . "
Cao Cao frowned, "What are you thinking? Their side has the Empress and her son . If we fight him, we’ll be rebels . "
"Lord, at the end of the day, Zhang Tong won’t give up the throne . He will eventually marry the Empress and claim himself the new Emperor of a new dynasty . The Era of the Han ended a long time ago . "
"So, you haven’t given up fighting?"
"I did, but Liu Bei and his brothers proved themselves worthy . We can still bring down Zhang Tong with their help . "
Cao Cao sighed . He gave up fighting Tong when he had realized that the Empress was still alive . But all of a sudden, his otherworlder strategist encouraged him not to give up yet .
"Fine . But if my cousins or my clan member dies from the clash with Zhang Tong, you’ll take responsibility with your life!"
"I know . "
Cao Cao turned around to see his cousins and clan members, who stood behind his back .
Xiahou Dun
Xiahou Yuan
Cao Hong
Cao Ren
Yue Jin
Yu Jin
Dian Wei
Xu Zhu
They were the elites of his clan, which all of them were famous through the other timeline history .
Yu Jin, Yue Jin, Dian Wei, and Xu Chu had been recruited by Pu Jing before the other timeline as he was afraid that they could have been poached by Tong . Now, they were a part of the main forces of Cao Cao .
Others did not participate on this battlefield as they were too young, such as Li Dian, Cao Xiu, Cao Chun, and many others .
Including Guo Jia!
"All of you go and rescue those four idiots . I want them back alive!"
Xiahou Dun clicked his tongue, "Are you sure? I thought they were our future enemies . "
"Sure, they will eventually be our enemies . But for now, I need them to hinder Zhang Tong . We can’t let this upstart son of a freak take the throne, or our country will be destroyed by his hands . "
Xiahou Dun still did not like it . Yet, he followed the order of his cousin anyway .
"Alright, Mengde . We’ll be heading out! Putin, you come too . We need your immortal power as our back up!"
Pu Jing harrumphed as he expected this, "I know . "
Two angelic wings manifested behind Pu Jing’s back . At the same time, he galloped his horse to follow after Xiahou Dun .
Nine top generals of Cao Cao jumped into the battle against Lu Bu’s clones .
...
Meanwhile, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei were struggling for their life . All the clones teamed up and attacked Guan Yu and Zhang Fei together .
Jiang Man detached from the battle as he drew the four spirits away from his brothers . Knowing that ordinary local fighters would not be a match for these spirits, he decided to take them down by himself .
As they resisted the clones, wounds, cuts, and bruises on their body increased each second . Both brothers could not hold on any longer .
Liu Bei had fled from the battlefield when he managed to get on his feet . Unfortunately, the three others could not retreat like their elder brother .
While Liu Bei was running back to the coalition army, another young man galloped toward the battle .
It was Taishi Ci, who tagged along with Kong Rong Army .
"You ..."
"I’ll save them! Go back and rest!"
Following after Taishi Ci, a rider on a white horse also came out . It was Zhao Yun .
"I’ll save your brothers . Do not worry!"
Liu Bei looked at the two youngsters in astonishment as he muttered to himself, "One day, I’ll have all of you as my subordinates . Then, I can dominate the land!"
...
Taishi Ci and Zhao Yun reached the battlefront and picked one clone each as the opponent .
At the other side, nine elites of Cao Cao reached the battlefield and separated six of nine clones from the pack .
Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Xu Chu, Dian Wei, and Cao Ren took one clone each as their opponent . The weaker generals, Yu Jin, Yue Jin, and Cao Hong fought together with the last clone .
As for Pu Jing, he chased after Jiang Man and the spirits to ease the other side .
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei finally got room to breathe as they only have to deal with only one Lu Bu .
Zhang Fei bellowed, "VOOEEEE!!’ It’s payback time!"
*BOOM*
The clone before him faltered back his full power strike . Guan Yu did not let this chance slip as he followed up with a horizontal slash .
*BANG*
The crescent halberd of the clone bent from the parrying .
Because of the unfavorable situation, the clone looked around, planning on asking for support from the fellow clones .
Unfortunately, they were too busy dealing with their new opponents .
"Idiot! What are you looking at!"
Zhang Fei thrust his serpent spear into the neck of the clone .
*SUEK*
Guan Yu swung his blade halberd again .
*SWUA*
The head of that clone flew through the air, separated from the neck .
