Soul Town: Claiming the throne? You've asked my Tian Ce Army, haven't you?

Xia Ling realized why Cao Yanbing's guardian spirit obeyed him.

She had initially thought that Xu Chu and the others were unaware that Cao Yanbing's body had been taken, but now it seemed that they not only knew, but might even have helped Cao Cao...

Xia Ling was feeling a bit powerless. Bei Luoshimen died while covering her and Yan Fengzha's retreat. Yan Fengzha was completely demonized while trying to protect her break through the encirclement, turning into a mindless monster.

And now, Cao Yanbing is also "dead"...

"By the way, you can use the Divine Pearl, right?"

Xia Ling rushed to Li Moxuan as if grasping at a lifeline, grabbing his arm. "You used the Xihe Divine Pearl to open the space-time tunnel just now, right?"

"Since that's the case, you must also be able to use the other divine pearls. The four divine pearls are at the top of the Fusang Tree. I beg you, take me back to the past and change all of this!"

Only in this way can Bei Luo Shimen survive, Yan Fengzha avoid becoming a demon, and Cao Yanbing might even be able to return...

"I'll agree to anything you ask of me, as long as you promise me!"

Xia Ling bit her lip. "I... I can be yours right now!"

"It's impossible..."

Li Moxuan shook his head slightly, "It's true that the Divine Pearl can change the past, but it's too late now!"

"Once we go back in time and rescue Cao Yanbing, do you know how many people's fates will be indirectly rewritten?"

"With my abilities, I can't do it..."

Of course, even if he could do it, Li Moxuan wouldn't. He's here to complete a mission, not to be a philanthropist. If he rescues Cao Yanbing, how can he kill Cao Cao?

Xia Ling's eyes dimmed. She released Li Moxuan's arm, took two steps back, and slumped to the ground, hugging her knees. She looked utterly helpless.

"Although I can't change the fate of too many people, I can still free Yan Fengzha from his demonic state..."

Li Moxuan walked up to her and squatted down. "Moreover, I will still annihilate the Red Dragon Army and save the innocent people here. How about it? Shall we make this deal?"

The demon king beast behind Xia Ling stared intently at Li Moxuan. Now that Xia Ling had lost her guardian spirit and spiritual power, she was just an ordinary girl who could only rely on him for protection...

"make a deal……"

Xia Ling raised her head and looked at Li Moxuan, a glimmer of light appearing in her gloomy eyes.

Regardless, Cao Yanbing was her partner. If she hadn't destroyed the Spirit Tree, Cao Yanbing might still be living happily with Xiao Liang in Rakshasa Street.

This disaster was caused by the demon that possessed Cao Yanbing's body, and as his partner, I also have an obligation to help him resolve it.

Although they couldn't save Cao Yanbing or Beiluo, they could at least save Fengzha and restore him to his original form.

Let me make one last contribution!

Xia Ling gritted her teeth, tears streaming down her face, "Please, just help Cao Yanbing get out of this..."

"Li Moxuan, I've found them!"

Jin Lingzi suddenly spoke up, "But it seems they've run into trouble..."

Li Moxuan was taken aback. They...?

Chapter 161: History is written by the victors

Fifteen minutes ago.

"Lingyun, it seems we've run into trouble..."

Lu Bu spoke in a deep voice, and in front of them, a densely packed army of red dragons blocked their path.

"Prime Minister, an enemy general has been spotted in the rear of the army!"

Xu Huang noticed Lü Bu behind him and spoke to Cao Cao, who was sitting on his warhorse.

Cao Cao did not turn around, but asked calmly, "How many enemy troops are there?"

Xu Chu said in a deep voice, "Prime Minister, I did not see any enemy troops in formation, only Lü Bu..."

Lü Bu?

Cao Cao became slightly interested and turned to look at the rear of the army. The army behind him immediately made way for Cao Cao to ride his horse to the rear of the army.

Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Xu Huang, Zhang He, and Zhang Liao followed closely behind, joining Cao Cao at the rear, turning the rear guard of the entire Red Dragon Army into the vanguard.

Lu Xiangong also saw Cao Cao's appearance and was stunned for a moment, "Isn't this Cao Yanbing?"

Diao Lingyun shook her head. "Who knows who that guy is?"

Although it's unclear why the Red Dragon army arrived here so quickly, it seems that to reach Nandou Street, one must overcome the Red Dragon army in front of them.

Of course, judging from Cao Cao's posture, it seems unlikely that he would let them leave...

"Lu Bu, it seems we have to break through, even if you can no longer use the Ghost King's power..."

"Do not worry!"

Holding his halberd, Lü Bu exuded a murderous aura and said in a deep voice, "Back then, these guys couldn't even stop Zhao Yun, so how could they possibly stop me, Lü Bu?"

Seeing this, Lü Xiangong also called out to Gao Shun, "Gao Shun, help us break through!"

"understand!"

Gao Shun rode his warhorse to Lü Bu's side. "Lord Wen, I never thought we'd be fighting side by side again!"

Lu Bu nodded. "Be careful!"

"It seems they have no intention of submitting..."

Dian Wei volunteered to Cao Cao, saying, "Xu Chu and I will lead the charge and take their heads to present to the Prime Minister!"

"Dian Wei, we mustn't underestimate him!"

Cao Cao stared at Lü Bu and Gao Shun, a smirk playing on his lips. "After all, they are known as 'Lü Bu among men, Red Hare among horses.' We should at least give them some face!"

"All of you come at me together, consider it a warm-up before the big battle..."

"Your subordinate obeys!"

Seeing Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Xu Huang, Zhang He, and Zhang Liao approaching with their weapons, Lü Bu dismounted. "Ling Yun, you all stay in the back..."

In this situation, breaking through seems impossible. If we charge forward on Red Hare, they might attack Red Hare.

He was not confident that he could protect Diao Lingyun and Lü Xiangong while fighting against these generals.

The only way now is to quickly kill an enemy general to create chaos, and then take the opportunity to break out.

"Gao Shun, you protect those two. Leave these guys to me!"

"How can this be?"

Gao Shun hurriedly advised, "Lord Wen, those seven are not someone you can handle alone..."

Moreover, Lu Bu can no longer use the power of the Ghost King...

How will you know if you don't try?

Lu Bu gripped his halberd and stepped forward, determined to kill just one enemy general. "Gao Shun, that guy over there reminds me of someone, so you have to protect them..."

After all, that person once said, "I would rather betray the world than let the world betray me." Who knows if he would be so unethical as to attack the spirit host?

"This……"

Gao Shun understood what he meant, gritted his teeth, and said, "Lord Wen, be careful!"

"They are the ones who should be careful!"

Xiahou Dun laughed loudly, "Lu Bu, do you think you can stop all seven of us by yourself?"

Zhang Liao advised, "Lord Wen, this empire will belong to the Prime Minister sooner or later, so why do you insist on this?"

"Prime Minister?"

Lu Bu stared at Cao Cao for a moment, then said, "As expected of Cao Cao, only you would do something like stealing the body of your own descendant!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Chu and the others fell silent. They truly thought highly of Cao Yanbing and were genuinely willing to risk their lives for him, hoping that he could inherit the Prime Minister's will.

Unexpectedly, the Prime Minister actually... no matter how you look at it, it was indeed a bit unethical...

But they were soldiers of Cao Wei, and no matter what choice the prime minister made, they would go through fire and water for him!

"Fengxian, why bother with such a quick tongue?"

Cao Cao squinted. "History is written by the victors. When I unify the world, who will know that it is not Cao Yanbing sitting here, but me, Cao Cao?"

He waved his hand, "All generals, listen to my command! Take Lu Bu's head!"

"Leader!"

Xu Chu roared and swung his Crimson Tiger Hammer at Lü Bu, who blocked it with his halberd.

boom--

The shockwave exploded in a ring, and the ground beneath Lü Bu's feet sank three zhang deep and cracked outwards.

"The strength is there, but it's not enough!"

Lu Bu swung his halberd at Xu Chu, knocking him back, while Dian Wei swung his double halberds down, but Lu Bu blocked it with his horizontal halberd.

Dian Wei changed his moves, wielding his Mad Shark Twin Halberds and launching a fierce attack on Lü Bu, who also swung his Fangtian Halberd to meet him.

"Dian Wei, I'm here to help you!"

Soon, Xu Chu also joined the battle, and the three of them exchanged blows, resulting in a stalemate for a time.

Lu Bu and the two men were engrossed in their battle and did not notice that Zhang Liao had circled behind him, gripping the Heavenly Wolf Crescent Halberd and thrusting it at him.

"Lord Wen, be careful!"

Gao Shun finally couldn't hold back and rushed forward, wielding his Hundred Battles Vanguard Spear to block Zhang Liao's Heavenly Wolf Crescent Halberd.

"Zhang Liao, what kind of skill is it to launch a sneak attack?"

Zhang Liao took a deep breath. "Gao Shun, if it had been someone else who attacked, you wouldn't have had a chance to block it..."

The implication is that he has already gone easy on her out of consideration for their past relationship...

"Zhang Liao, do you look down on me, Gao Shun, that much?"

Gao Shun roared and brandished his Hundred Battles Piercing Spear, engaging Zhang Liao in a fierce battle...

This was exactly the effect Cao Cao wanted. He pointed at Diao Lingyun and Lü Xiangong, then waved to Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan.
