Xiang Yu was able to break through the defensive formation of a royal city with his own strength, which shows how powerful he was.

If we can gather the strength of our soldiers, breaking through an imperial city is not a problem.

Unfortunately, four other people appeared with Xiang Yu.

The strategist Zhang Liang, the military genius Han Xin, Xiao He, and Liu Bang.

Liu Bang was in charge of the overall fortune, Xiao He was in charge of governance, Zhang Liang was in charge of planning, and Han Xin was in charge of the army. Only through their combined efforts could they force Xiang Yu into a corner.

Even so, Xiang Yu was not completely defeated, and it was even possible that he could make a comeback.

In other words, he didn't want to fight anymore; otherwise, it would be uncertain whether the world would still belong to the Han.

Nowadays, Lü Bu has a bit of the air of a tyrant.

After slaying these bloodthirsty evil spirits, Lü Bu wondered where they came from in the city's protective formation.

Before he could continue pondering his doubts, a voice resounded throughout the entire Jiuyuan Juncheng.

"I am Zhang Yi, the governor of Bingzhou. Soldiers and generals of Jiuyuan, come quickly to help me eliminate these evil spirits."

"Damn it!" Lu Bu was furious. No wonder these blood demons came in; it turned out that Zhang Yi had activated the formation with his own authority in order to protect himself.

Fortunately, most of the evil spirits were attracted by his blood energy fluctuations; otherwise, the entire Jiuyuan Juncheng would have been in trouble, including his wife and newborn daughter.

Outside the city, Zhang Yi was surrounded by a group of bloodthirsty evil spirits.

Although he was the governor of Bingzhou, he failed to awaken his literary talent and had no fierce generals under his command. He only had three thousand soldiers of the Heavenly Immortal level forming a military formation, and with the official seal of Bingzhou protecting him, he was able to be protected.

He's terrified right now, he feels like he's going to die here.

It was because he heard that there was a particularly powerful person named Lü Bu in Jiuyuan City that he defied the world and opened the city's protective formation, allowing some of the Blood Fiend Evil Spirits to enter.

Although most of the Blood Fiends were attracted by Lu Bu, some were still attacking villages on the edge of the city's protective formation.

The city lord of Jiuyuan City was named Chen Yan. He was quite talented and had already sensed the evil spirit that had entered the great formation. He immediately activated the formation's enemy-annihilating function.

One after another, bolts of blood-fiend lightning struck down, shattering the blood-fiend evil spirits into nothingness, but a small portion of them managed to escape.

After all, Jiuyuan City was too large, and the Blood Fiend Evil Spirit arrived too suddenly.

Such commotion naturally caught Lin Zhu's attention. His eyes swept across the city, and from a great distance, he saw that there were still eighteen True Immortal level and six Profound Immortal level Blood Fiend Evil Spirits wreaking havoc.

There was another cluster of blood outside the city, and the cry for help came from within it.

Without saying a word, he instantly produced the Jade Bow in his hand, condensing his magic power into an arrow containing a trace of Purple Heaven Divine Thunder, its white surface tinged with a hint of purple light.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa~"

The arrowhead had a hint of silver on it, enhanced by the laws of space.

Arrows disappeared into the void, appearing in front of the bloodthirsty evil spirits in the blink of an eye.

The arrow pierced their bodies, and all twenty-four bloodthirsty evil spirits were killed.

"Excellent archery skills!" Chen Yan observed the trajectory of the arrow. "That courtyard must be the home of Lü Bu. He truly is a flying general!"

At this moment, Lü Bu had already condensed his own blood and energy into a warhorse, which galloped out of the city.

There is an official road in the city that can increase speed by about ten thousand times.

Although the speed of the blood-qi horse was not fast, it took only a quarter of an hour to leave the city.

"Die!"

He saw the group of bloodthirsty evil spirits, their halberds raised high, their blood-red warhorses leaping into the air, and boundless bloodthirsty energy gathering around them.

The power that Lü Bu cultivated was very close to the Blood Fiend Qi, so he could borrow even more Blood Fiend Qi.

The Crimson Flying Tiger reappears, with a ghostly deity riding upon it.

As the flying tiger crashed to the ground, the massive halberd cleaved down, instantly slaying the group of bloodthirsty evil spirits. The earth cracked, and the emanating power sent Zhang Yi and three thousand soldiers flying.

The aura surrounding the official seal in Zhang Yi's hand was almost shattered by the shock.

Through the gaps in the encirclement of the bloodthirsty evil spirits, he saw Lü Bu, who was no different from a ghost or god. He felt his liver and gall bladder tremble and was almost scared to death.

He felt that Lü Bu was not even human.

If it weren't for the official seal of Bingzhou that allowed him to mobilize the fortune of Bingzhou to protect him, he would probably have become a dead soul under Lü Bu's attack.

The three thousand celestial-level soldiers were all injured by Lu Bu's move, and they all vomited blood.

With a single move, Lu Bu eliminated the Blood Fiend Evil Spirit and released the Crimson Flying Tiger from his Fangtian Halberd, allowing it to devour the blood crystals that burst forth after the Blood Fiend Evil Spirit died.

Immediately afterwards, wielding a halberd with its tip pointed at Zhang Yi, he shouted, "It was you who summoned the evil spirits and even opened the city's protective array?"

Even though Zhang Yi was the governor of Bingzhou, he still had to show some respect to a powerful general like Lü Bu.

Generally speaking, it's best to keep your distance.

After all, Confucius once said: "Serve the people with righteousness, respect the spirits and gods but keep them at a distance; this can be called wisdom."

Lu Bu's battle spirit is a ghost and a god, isn't that exactly what you said?

Zhang Yi composed himself. Although he was furious at Lü Bu's recklessness, he dared not show it. Instead, he politely cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your help, sir. But it was not I who attracted the Blood Fiend Spirit; it was just a coincidence. I opened the city's protective formation only to save myself. Please forgive me, sir."

Lu Bu snorted coldly, "In order to save yourself, you disregard the people of Jiuyuan?"

If Zhang Yi weren't the governor of Bingzhou, he would have loved to stab him to death with his halberd.

Zhang Yi scoffed inwardly, 'How dare those lowly lives of peasants compare to mine?'

"I know I was wrong."

He had originally thought that since Lü Bu was so skilled in martial arts, if he recruited him into his ranks, he wouldn't be afraid of danger when patrolling (making money) Bingzhou in the future.

But now, what a load of rubbish!

Lu Bu wanted to kill Zhang Yi, a tough nut to crack, but he didn't know how.

Although the Eastern Han regime was corrupt, it still existed. He had a wife and children and was also thinking about making achievements. If he killed a governor of a province, his future would be over.

Therefore, he could only keep his frustration to himself.

With a cold snort and a glare at Zhang Yi, Lü Bu swung his halberd to summon the Crimson Flying Tiger back, then left without looking back.

Chen Yan witnessed everything that happened outside the city.

Chen Yan was the local official of Jiuyuan, but he was no good either. Seeing that Zhang Yi was out of danger, he quickly teleported out of the city. "Is Your Excellency alright? I am late, please forgive me."

Now it was Zhang Yi's turn to sneer. There were quite a few soldiers in Jiuyuan. If Chen Yan really wanted to save him, he would have come long ago.

But he really couldn't blame Chen Yan, after all, there were foreign tribes to the north of Jiuyuan, and most of the soldiers were guarding the border.

Chapter 843 Tongtian Takes on Another Disciple

There are five different ethnic groups in the northern, northwestern and northeastern parts of Jambudvipa: the Xianbei, Wuhuan, Southern Xiongnu, Northern Xiongnu and Qiang.

They are all human, but their cultivation methods are somewhat unconventional.

The north is mostly grassland, and there are many blood beasts on the grassland, whose blood is extremely mysterious.

Among them, Blood Wolves are the most numerous, while Blood Demon Tigers are the strongest.

There are also ferocious birds and beasts such as the Bloodswamp Bear, the Blood-Stained Cracked Eagle, and the Shadow Blood Leopard.

The cultivation method of the grassland tribes involves extracting the bloodline of these blood beasts and injecting it into their own bodies to obtain the power of these blood beasts.

For an ordinary person, the chance of survival is extremely slim.

However, for those ancestors who had succeeded before, the success rate increased significantly. As a result, the nomadic tribes of the grasslands were divided into various tribes, and tattoos of ferocious birds and beasts were used as identification.

Among them, the Southern Xiongnu and Northern Xiongnu had the most beast-blood warriors, who were mainly adorned with wolf patterns.

The Chanyu was the strongest and had the noblest bloodline, possessing a trace of Xiongnu blood. He had extremely thick body hair, a prominent mouth and nose, and was exceptionally robust.

Its power was comparable to that of the Blood Demon Tiger King. Before the division of the Northern and Southern Xiongnu, the strongest Xiongnu leader, Modu Chanyu, possessed power equivalent to the third realm of the Law.

However, the upper limit is only the third realm of laws.

In the Southern Continent, even the strongest man, Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King of Western Chu, only possessed the power of the third realm of laws.

Only with the support of the military formation can one elevate their power to the Hunyuan Realm.

Because the Blood Demon Tiger is difficult to capture alive, and its bloodline is extremely violent, the mortality rate of entering a body with its bloodline reaches 99%.

Therefore, among the alien races, those who possess the bloodline of the Blood Demon Tiger are extremely rare, and each one is at least equivalent to a second-rate general.

The strongest can even be compared to the top-tier.

Chen Yan welcomed Zhang Yi into Jiuyuan City.

Meanwhile, Lü Bu returned to his home.

Lin Zhu asked, "Was that Blood Fiend Spirit deliberately brought in by Zhang Yi?"

"Not bad." Lu Bu slammed his fist on the door frame in anger, but fortunately he held back so the women inside wouldn't hear. "I really want to kill that old man."

"You don't need to lift a finger. I think that old guy's days are numbered." Lin Zhu knew that Zhang Yi would be killed by the Hu people soon, and then Ding Yuan would take office.

It must have been quite a few years after the Yellow Turban Rebellion!

Lu Bu is just twenty-five years old now, still a young man.

There were still three years until the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

For the next few days, Lin Zhu stayed in Jiuyuan City.

He spent some money to buy a courtyard house in Fuhu Village and lived next door to Lu Bu's family.

From time to time, I would take Yuegui and Chang'e to experience the local customs and culture of Jiuyuan City.

Jiuyuan City is very large, and the local customs and culture are completely different a thousand miles away. It would take at least ten years to experience them all.

During this time, Lin Zhu used the photo function in the chat group to record Lü Lingqi's growth.

Huang Rong: I never imagined Lingqi was so cute when she was little.

Feng Heng: You weren't bad when you were young either.

Huang Rong: Mother, I'm hundreds of years old, can you please not talk about my childhood?

She felt somewhat ashamed.

Feng Heng: Okay, okay, I won't say anymore.
