Cultivation in the starry sky

Chapter 482 Li Ru's Surprise

"Guandong rats, your grandpa Hua is here, who dares to come out and fight?"

After Hulao Pass, Hua Xiong shouted in front of the formation with an arrogant expression on his face. Seeing his arrogance, Lu Bu, who was standing above Hulao Pass, immediately clenched his fists, and his eyes were full of anger.

He knew that Dong Zhuo was quite happy after Hua Xiong killed two armies at Sishui Pass this time, and he had already revealed in private that after defeating the princes of the Guandong this time, he would be rewarded as Marquis of the Guannei.

Thinking that Lu Bu, as the number one military general in Xiliang, hadn't even been conferred the title of marquis and general, at this moment, he had already almost obtained that brute.

How could this not make Lu Bu angry, and he also knew that the reason why the opponent was able to defeat the two armies was not Hua Xiong's ability.

Instead, he succeeded with the help of another strategy of someone he hated so much.Thinking of this, he set his sights on that person again.

But the other party was dressed in a white scholar's robe and a counselor's attire, and Lu Bu was even more annoyed in his heart.

"I am the number one general in Xiliang," Lu Bu roared in his heart.He even hoped that the allies outside Hulao Pass could send out a strong general to defeat Hua Xiong, or even kill him.

Then let him make a move to defeat and kill those generals. At that time, Xiangguo will know that he is the peerless general who can be relied on.

Unfortunately, his idea fell through.

Because at this moment when he was daydreaming, suddenly there was a burst of cheers from their army behind the prison. Lu Bu regained his senses and found Hua Xiong's horse lying there with a head staring at death.

"Trash, it's just rubbish"

Seeing this situation, Lu Bu didn't know that the generals from the alliance were beheaded by Hua Xiong, and now Hua Xiong's prestige was even higher.

Especially looking at the adoring eyes of the closed troops, Lu Bu's face became even more gloomy.

"Hehe! Why is Fengxian unhappy when Zijian beheaded and killed the enemy general? Fengxian's face seems a bit grim. Is he sick?"

Suddenly a gentle laughter reached Lu Bu's ears, which startled him immediately. When he looked up, he saw Xiao Ziyu smiling and nodding towards him, and seemed to care about him very much.

Lu Bu was even more disgusting as if he had swallowed a fly.

He could tell that Xiao Ziyu was not only caring about him, but more disgusting about him. How could Hua Xiong be his colleague, who was beheading the enemy general below, and everyone here was laughing and cheering.

It is only Lu Bu who is unhappy. What does this mean? Could it be that Lu Bu has a connection with the following Kwantung princes?

If Xiangguo heard this, with his suspicious character, he would inevitably be held accountable, so at this moment, Lu Bu held even more hatred for Xiao Ziyu.

Looking at Lu Bu's angry eyes, Xiao Ziyu didn't care at all, he seemed to like to see Lu Bu staring at him like this.

"Fengxian, if you are really uncomfortable, I know that there is a genius doctor, and you can introduce him to Fengxian."

Seeing that Lu Bu was silent, Xiao Ziyu continued to tease him.

"Humph!"

Lu Bu seemed a little unbearable, so he gave Xiao Ziyu a hard look, and after a cold snort, he left directly and went down to the top of the city.

"Brother Ziyu, why do you always have trouble with General Lu? After all, we both serve as Prime Minister, so why are you so stiff now?"

Not long after Lu Bu left, Li Ru came to Xiao Ziyu's side with a gentle face, and said with a helpless expression.

"Hey! I'm just not happy with this guy. He looks like an awesome old man. In the end, isn't he still defeated by his subordinates?"

"Besides, if I have a good relationship with this guy, can your Xiangguo be at ease?" Xiao Ziyu asked back without turning his head.

Immediately, Li Ru choked, and he instantly understood what Xiao Ziyu meant, offending Lu Bu was to reassure Dong Zhuo.

After all, the two of them are the top powerhouses in Xiliang. If the two join forces, Dong Zhuo is really worried. Even Lu Bu's original military power may be taken away.

In this way, Lu Bu's ability will be greatly weakened, and at the same time, their Xiliang's strength will also be weakened.

Thinking of this, Li Ru was also in his heart for a while, then he waved his sleeves, and bowed solemnly to Xiao Ziyu: "Brother, I misunderstood Ziyu."

"Haha! Brother Wen You is comparable to this. I just don't want Xiangguo to be afraid. I also want to see Xiangguo become the emperor and canonize me as a national teacher!"

Xiao Ziyu unabashedly stated his purpose of coming to Dong Zhuo's place.

"Ziyu is quite a national teacher?" Li Ru was shocked when he heard this.He didn't expect Xiao Ziyu to have such an idea.

It seems that this national teacher has a great reputation, the teacher of a country, but Li Ru knows that this national teacher has no power at all, it just has a name.

He has communicated with Xiao Ziyu repeatedly in the past few days, but the one who knows Xiao Ziyu's ability is definitely a person who can go from general to prime minister. He can govern the country with military skills, and he is proficient in politics, military affairs, and strategy. He even has the talent of Duke Lu Ban. .

Xiao Ziyu had personally seen the saddles, horseshoes and crossbows that Xiao Ziyu ordered to build. Of course, he understood how much the equipment here would be of great help to them in Xiliang.

So according to Xiao Ziyu's ability, once Dong Zhuo becomes emperor in the future, Xiao Ziyu will get the position of a third prince no matter what.

This point, as a senior executive in Xiliang, is very clear.

However, Xiao Ziyu has now stated his purpose, which is so different from what they imagined, how can he not be surprised.

"Brother Wen You, you seem very surprised." Seeing Li Ru's expression, Xiao Ziyu smiled faintly.

"That's right, with brother Ziyu's talent, in the future Xiangguo will become the emperor, Ziyu is also a third prince, why should Ziyu choose such a nameless national teacher?"

Li Ru began to persuade Xiao Ziyu, saying that he never suspected that Xiao Ziyu was lying, after all, the two of them had nothing dirty, and Xiao Ziyu didn't need to deceive others.

"Hehe! Brother Wen You, I was originally a Taoist cultivator in the mountains and forests, but now I have encountered a bottleneck in my cultivation, and my cultivation level has been unable to break through, so I think of the predecessors in the pre-Qin period. After they helped the princes to rule the world, they were favored by the world. , luckily broke through”

"Now I want to go this way. By helping Xiangguo to rule the world and win the position of national teacher, I will use the luck of heaven and earth to break through the bottleneck in one fell swoop. Once my cultivation level breaks through, it will be time for me to return to the mountains and forests!"

Xiao Ziyu suddenly exuded an extremely dusty aura. Li Ru had seen this aura before, and he had encountered similar mountain hermits before.

"Ziyu is kind-hearted!"

Seeing Xiao Ziyu's ambition, Li Ru smiled wryly.
