The Three Kingdoms Descend: Reincarnation of a Star General, I am the God-like Lü Bu

Chapter 56 is complete.

That evening.

Inside the reception room of the city lord's mansion.

Lü Shenxiao leaned back in the large main seat.

His gaze fell on the man sitting opposite him.

Ming Xuanjian, Vice Leader of the Great Han Alliance.

The vice leader of the Great Han Alliance, who had just arrived, had his brows furrowed and his face so gloomy it looked like it could drip water.

Something's happened.

He didn't even bother to take a sip of the steaming tea in front of him.

"Although it's a bit disappointing to say this on the day your city is promoted."

"But I still have to tell you two pieces of bad news."

Ming Xuanjian's voice was low, revealing an undisguised weariness.

"Xing Lei is dead."

Sitting opposite him, Lü Shenxiao was playing with a white jade teacup in his hand.

Upon hearing this news...

He paused slightly as he played with the teacup.

"Oh?"

"Wasn't he imprisoned by your Great Han Alliance?"

Lu Shenxiao's tone was relatively relaxed, as if he were listening to some gossip.

"Could it be that he couldn't withstand the cruel interrogation of the officials and committed suicide?"

Ming Xuanjian took a deep breath.

"If it really was suicide, then that would be easy to handle."

He raised his head, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Lü Shenxiao.

"He was assassinated."

"It's in the highest-level prison for serious offenders in the Alliance."

He was killed in a single blow.

Ming Xuanjian crossed his arms, his expression solemn.

"Not just him."

"In the present world, the Xing family of Bincheng."

"A total of twenty-two people, under the close surveillance of the Alliance's agents."

"They all died overnight!"

The Great Han Alliance's prison for serious offenders holds all the most powerful criminals since the game of national destiny was introduced.

It is said to be an absolute iron wall that even a general with a combat power of over 10,000 points cannot breach!

The Xing family in Bincheng was under tight control by the authorities.

Under such circumstances, they could quietly carry out a two-pronged elimination.

If this news gets out, I wonder how many people will be terrified!

"It seems so."

"Your Great Han Alliance is not clean inside."

Lu Shenxiao put down his teacup and immediately guessed the reason.

If it's difficult to break through from the outside, then the problem must lie inside.

Ming Xuanjian did not refute.

He rubbed his temples.

"That's why I came here in person today."

"Within the Alliance, a top-level investigation has begun."

"There is an unknown force."

Ming Xuanjian gritted his teeth, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

"Like a maggot clinging to our bones, they parasitize right under our noses!"

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Lü Shenxiao.

"Shenxiao".

"During this period, you have supplied the Alliance with a large number of Thunderheart Coconuts."

"With so many high-grade fruits, even if I try to be discreet, it will be difficult to keep it a secret."

Ming Xuanjian's tone was full of worry.

"The fact that your Xuzhou City has control of a top-tier resource point may have already been exposed."

"Fortunately, no one knows the location of your city except for me and the alliance leader."

"It's safe for now."

Ming Xuanjian sighed.

That being said...

"But until your martial prowess breaks through 10,000 points, I will personally take charge of all the supply arrangements for Xuzhou City."

"It will never go through any third party."

He said solemnly.

"You yourself must also be careful."

Lu Shenxiao nodded, acknowledging the favor.

"Apart from this matter."

"Let me tell you the second piece of bad news as well."

Lu Shenxiao sat back down in his chair and gestured for him to enter.

Ming Xuanjian picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip.

He put down his teacup, his expression turning somewhat awkward.

"The recruitment notice for the Xuzhou Guild that you asked me to post before."

"I have already pushed it to all high-level players in the China region through the alliance's channels."

Ming Xuanjian paused, seemingly considering his words.

"but."

"Some of them received only lukewarm responses."

The response was lukewarm.

Ming Xuanjian had already used very euphemisms in those four words.

In fact, after the recruitment notice was sent out, it was as if it had sunk without a trace.

Besides attracting a bunch of sarcastic and cynical onlookers...

None of the truly skilled elite players even came to consult them.

Even those "Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry" and "Trap Camp" who were specifically recruited by Lü Shenxiao were no exception.

Ming Xuanjian looked at Lü Shenxiao and comforted him, "Shenxiao, don't take it to heart."

"After all, you've only just established your city, and your foundation is still shallow."

"Once you develop Xuzhou City, a large number of talented people will naturally come to serve you."

however.

To Ming Xuanjian's surprise...

After hearing these words, Lü Shenxiao showed no anger whatsoever.

Instead, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Vice Alliance Leader."

Do you think I would care about something like that?

Looking at Lü Shenxiao's confident demeanor...

For a moment, Ming Xuanjian was somewhat unable to figure out his thoughts.

"you----"

Ming Xuanjian hesitated for a moment.

"Any countermeasures already in place?"

Lu Shenxiao stood up and walked to the French windows.

Looking out at the sea, dyed red by the setting sun.

"Vice Alliance Leader."

Lu Shenxiao turned his head and looked at Ming Xuanjian.

Three days later.

"If you have the time, you might as well come to Xuzhou City again."

"At that time."

"I have a little surprise for you."

surprise?

Ming Xuanjian was stunned.

"What surprise?" he asked instinctively.

Lu Shenxiao simply smiled and shook his head, offering no further explanation.

"Isn't it good to maintain a bit of mystery?"

After seeing off Ming Xuanjian, who was full of doubts and vowed to never share a grudge with riddle solvers, they departed.

Lu Shenxiao arrived at an open space in the city.

In his mind, he took stock of all the gains he had made in the past ten days.

"Ten days."

"The Yellow Turban warriors cut down more than four hundred purple-gold coconut trees in that lightning-struck coconut grove."

"Each coconut tree can provide five units of purple gold timber."

Lu Shenxiao's lips finally couldn't help but curl upwards.

"Two thousand units of purple-gold timber are more than enough!"

His gaze then turned to the system inventory.

There.

Three thousand five hundred units of Zijin stone lie quietly.

This was just delivered by Ming Xuanjian, who mobilized the power of the Great Han Alliance and paid a huge price.

"Timber, stone, all in place."

Lu Shenxiao flipped his wrist.

Splash!

A huge pile of beast essences, radiating various colors of light, lay at his feet like a small mountain.

These were all spoils of war he and Mingyuexi had collected during the past ten days as they swept through the monster strongholds within a hundred miles.

"Five hundred beast essences, no less!"

As for the last ten units of "blood of the gods and demons".

Lu Shenxiao pointed his fingers like a sword and lightly slashed his wrist.

A large amount of blood fell onto the pile of beast essence.

All the materials were gathered at this moment!
