You get Lu Bu as your starting character.

"Cao Zhengchun, inform all the generals to prepare!"

As an emperor, Zhou Chen could not put all his eggs in one basket.

It's impossible to place all our hopes on the battlefield of just a few people.

Even with a strong chance of winning, he still has to make corresponding contingency plans.

This is the most basic skill a ruler should possess.

Before planning for victory, plan for defeat.

You can never go too far wrong.

The battlefield is ever-changing, and before the outcome is known, no one knows whether an unexpected surprise or a pleasant one will come first.

Zhou Chen watched the battle between Lü Bu and his men and spoke to Cao Zhengchun.

Upon hearing this, Cao Zhengchun immediately bowed and said, "This old servant obeys the decree."

……

Faced with the combined attack of Lü Bu and Zhang Fei, Long Xingtian went all out, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

Long Xingtian had just witnessed Zhang Fei's strength; he was someone even the Great Sage Mo Yan couldn't defeat in a short time.

Long Xingtian was naturally not entirely confident in dealing with it.

Not to mention that Lu Bu was added to the mix, and the two of them joined forces to besiege him.

If he were to be even slightly negligent, the consequences could be far more than just his defeat; it could mean certain death.

"The Nine Swords of the Azure Dragon".

A sword engraved with dragon patterns appeared in Long Xingtian's hand.

A flash of sword light, and the intent of sword strikes boundless.

Long Xingtian wielded the dragon-patterned sword with all his might, unleashing the laws of swordsmanship.

Lu Bu and Zhang Fei, wielding their halberds and spears respectively, charged forward to meet the attack.

Bump! Bump!
Long Xingtian was engaged in a fierce battle with Zhang Fei and Lü Bu, so intense that the scene was obscured, with only three beams of light colliding at high speed.

Long Xingtian exerted all his strength, his dragon-patterned sword forming a dense net, each strike more ferocious than the last.

At their level, all the so-called skills and fancy moves have been discarded; all that remains is the most direct and simple collision.

This is precisely the essence of the saying "the greatest truths are the simplest."

Whoever has the greatest strength, the strongest output of holy energy, and the deepest understanding and application of the laws, can overcome all opponents with sheer force.

Whether it was Long Xingtian, or Lu Bu and Zhang Fei, their attacks were always the same.

It is a combination of the condensation of sacred essence and laws, and the borrowing of the will of heaven and earth; this is the evolved supernatural power.

After just a dozen or so moves, Long Xingtian's heart sank to the bottom.

Long Xingtian originally thought that Zhang Fei's strength was already terrifying enough.

He'll have to put in some effort to take down Zhang Fei.

But unexpectedly, this Lu Bu who came out of nowhere was even more terrifying than Zhang Fei.

Both are at the peak of the Lesser Saint realm, but in terms of combat power, Lü Bu is far superior to Zhang Fei.

Faced with such a combined attack from two people, let alone the chance of winning, even the chance of saving one's own life is in doubt.

After only a dozen or so moves, Long Xingtian felt he was about to give up.

"No."

"We can't go on like this. If we do, we'll surely die."

As Long Xingtian thought to himself, his aura suddenly changed.

The sacred energy within his body spun rapidly and surged out wildly.

A series of laws swirled and coalesced into a dragon as Long Xingtian wielded the dragon-patterned sword.

"The dragon soars to the heavens."

A sword was swung out.

The azure dragon that had coalesced soared into the sky, as if it were about to devour the heavens and earth, causing the entire void to darken.

Long Xingtian knew that if he continued to fight Lu Bu and Zhang Fei like this, he would be in danger.

Therefore, Long Xingtian unleashed his ultimate move, a powerful divine attack aimed directly at Lu Bu and Zhang Fei.

Upon seeing this, Lü Bu and Zhang Fei's expressions suddenly changed.

"Extinction Cross Halberd." Even top-tier heroes like Lü Bu and Zhang Fei changed their expressions and became solemn after sensing Long Xingtian's divine power.

Both Lü Bu and Zhang Fei sensed considerable danger from Long Xingtian's powerful attack.

Lu Bu and Zhang Fei both unleashed their full power in a single attack.

"Boom!"

The heavens and earth trembled.

The sun and moon tilted.

A deafening roar, as if the heavens and earth were collapsing, resounded throughout the entire void.

The terrifying aftershocks devoured the void within a radius of hundreds of miles, spreading in all directions, far exceeding ten thousand miles.

Lu Bu and Zhang Fei were also sent flying backwards.

Although Lu Bu and Zhang Fei were very powerful when they joined forces, their will was solely driven by tyranny.

Long Xingtian is different. He is the emperor, and his will is the way of the king and the way of the emperor.

Therefore, even though Lu Bu and Zhang Fei joined forces to deliver a powerful attack, they were still knocked away by Long Xingtian.

After Lü Bu and Zhang Fei regained their footing, they discovered that Long Xingtian's figure had vanished from the spot and reappeared thousands of miles away.

"Want to escape?"

"The halberd of Fangtian, go!"

Lu Bu swung his halberd.

The halberd seemed to come alive, thrusting directly at Long Xingtian, who was thousands of miles away. At the same time, Lü Bu also took a step forward, following closely behind.

Zhang Fei's figure had also disappeared from the spot, and his eighteen-foot spear pierced through the void, chasing after Long Xingtian.

……

Zhou Chen raised an eyebrow slightly as he watched this scene.

Zhou Chen hadn't expected Long Xingtian to turn and flee; his decision was rather decisive.

However, escaping from two top-tier figures like Lü Bu and Zhang Fei is not so easy.

……

Long Xingtian knew that if he continued to fight Lu Bu and Zhang Fei, he would be defeated in just a few moves.

Therefore, the Dragon Angel unleashed its extraordinary power, knocking Lu Bu and Zhang Fei away before turning and fleeing.

The current situation is beyond their control; they no longer have any advantage in taking over the Great Zhou.

This was already a precarious situation for him, and he had no choice but to retreat to the imperial court and make further plans.

have to say.

Long Xingtian's plan was well-intentioned, but reality is often cruel.

As soon as Long Xingtian took a step out and fled thousands of miles away, he felt a danger coming from behind, which instantly made him feel a chill all over his body and his hair stand on end.

"Azure Dragon protects the body."

Long Xingtian didn't have time to think it through and immediately turned around with his sword.

The light formed by the laws swirled around his body, creating barriers that covered his entire body, inside and out.

"bump……"

at this time.

The halberd and the spear struck the barriers protecting Long Xingtian one after the other.

The powerful impact sent Long Xingtian flying.

"puff."

A mouthful of blood spurted out.

Before Long Xingtian could react, he saw the halberd and spear he had just blocked coming at him again from two different directions.

"Do not……"

Long Xingtian's pupils contracted, and he let out a roar of unwillingness.

Unfortunately, the moment that roar left his mouth, Long Xingtian felt his energy stagnate and his neck ache before his head flew off his body.

He slowly succumbed to darkness, losing consciousness and awareness. (End of Chapter)
