CHAPTER 1818: CHAPTER 1819: DESPICABLE, SHAMELESS, AND VILE

Upon hearing this, your suspicions about Liu Bei’s potential threat to Zhen Luo became even firmer compared to Cao Pi.

At this moment, you felt an urge to slap yourself fiercely, while also silently vowing that you would never rest until Liu Bei was dead the next time you saw him!

"Are there horses in the mansion?" you turned to ask one of the guards.

"Old Shu!" At this time, Zhang Shui came out from a side gate not far away, leading a fine steed. He walked up to you and said, "Uncle Wen just ordered me to bring you the best horse from the mansion."

You nodded without saying much, quickly mounted the horse, and sped off towards the west in pursuit.

After leaving Wuji County, you galloped madly northwest. Zhen Luo and Zhen Jiang were traveling in a carriage, accompanied by a convoy, moving slowly. Based on your solo speed, you could catch up within an hour, but Liu Bei and his three companions had left a few minutes earlier. Their horses were undoubtedly superior, considering Gongsun Zan was a northern hero, and the nomadic tribes trembled under his army’s hooves; his own horses surely wouldn’t be inferior.

Your mind was focused on Zhen Luo, unaware of how much time had passed. You kept spurring your horse down the official road, eyes fixed straight ahead. Suddenly, you spotted a convoy on the road ahead, where people crowded around a central carriage, with about twenty guards facing off against four men on white horses.

You noticed the convoy bore the "Zhen" family banner, sending a chill through your heart!

As you galloped closer, Liu Bei, who had been sitting on his white horse, turned and smiled at you, shouting, "Li Muyun, the four of us brothers have been waiting here for you for quite some time!"

Upon hearing the name "Li Muyun," Zhen Jiang’s alarmed voice called out from the guarded carriage, "Muyun, come rescue us!"

Zhen Jiang’s words served as a grounding reassurance for you. Frankly, your biggest fear had been Liu Bei escaping far away with Zhen Luo, making it impossible to track them down. Now that both Zhen Luo and Zhen Jiang were present, and judging by Liu Bei’s smug demeanor, it was clear he was waiting for you to walk into a trap.

"Lin Ping!" you suddenly called out one of the guards’ names.

"I’m here!" a brawny man quickly responded.

"Take the young ladies and gradually retreat," you instructed, giving Lin Ping a knowing wink.

Lin Ping nodded understandingly.

Liu Bei suddenly burst into loud laughter and said to you, "Li Muyun, oh Li Muyun, do you really think I’m a lecher? If that were the case, I would’ve already taken the Zhen sisters long ago, instead of waiting here so patiently."

You rolled your eyes dramatically, tossing a handkerchief at Liu Bei, scolding bluntly, "Do you think I don’t know about your filthy habits? You embarrassed yourself at the Zhen residence earlier, and you’re pretending to be all righteous now to save face. You believe that even if you kill me, the Zhen sisters won’t escape you, don’t you?"

Having his true intentions exposed, Liu Bei was momentarily speechless.

"Aha!"

Suddenly, the voice similar to a psychic attack echoed from Guan Yu beside Liu Bei. You couldn’t help but clutch your forehead, squinting your eyes, but the moment you squinted, Guan Yu vanished.

Suddenly!

An unprecedented sense of danger enveloped your entire body, causing your pores to open as if Death God himself was watching you, making your limbs tremble uncontrollably.

"Ha!"

A fiercely sharp aura descended upon you!

In the blink of an eye, you tilted your body slightly, catching a glimpse of a glint in your vision. Suddenly, your horse went limp; you pushed off with both hands, leaping backward ten meters, only to find your steed cut in two, the attacker being none other than Guan Yu!

Guan Yu appeared somewhat surprised you evaded his strike, clearly having underestimated your abilities.

"Ambush?" You smirked slightly, unable to laugh but couldn’t resist a jibe at Guan Yu, "Looks like you’ve mastered the art of ’passing through five barriers, slaying six generals’ technique."

Many spoke of Guan Yu’s exceptional ambush skills, often summarized with the saying — "Allow me to add one more strike," referring to Guan Yu.

"Giddyup!"

Suddenly, a clear voice emerged from the crowd, making way as the masked Zhen Luo and Zhen Jiang rode a horse towards Wuji County at full speed, with three guards following closely behind.

"Where are you running, dear sisters-in-law?" The black-faced Zhang Fei immediately rode after them.

"Get out of the way!" Like a launched cannonball, you propelled yourself towards Zhang Fei, causing a small explosion beneath your feet. Just as Zhang Fei rode out, unable to dodge, he watched as your fist grew larger in his view.

"Bang!" Zhang Fei’s head took a solid hit from your punch, and he instantly felt his world go dark as a thunderous sound echoed in his mind, losing consciousness soon after.

"Die!"

Once again came that incredibly sharp aura!

Guan Yu’s big blade slashed down sharply; the strike came swift as a rainbow!

Unavoidable, you raised both hands to block!

"Clang!"

Much to Liu Bei and his companions’ surprise, you managed to withstand Guan Yu’s miraculous attack with just your bare hands.

"Hmph, Vajra Body!" Guan Yu’s strength was unexpectedly a match for you, pressing you to the ground with his big blade while his face showed a resolute intent to kill, "Li Muyun, I had no intention of killing you, but..."

While speaking, Guan Yu suddenly felt his hold lighten; the you under his blade vanished. Guan Yu jerked in shock, immediately shouting, "Elder brother, watch out!"

A shadow darted quickly to Liu Bei’s front, giving him no time to even curse before the looming fist, carrying a fierce wind, aimed for Liu Bei’s face!

"Swish!"

But in the instant Liu Bei closed his eyes, expecting death, an arrow whistled towards your left eye. The arrow was unlike ordinary arrows, with a faint glow on its shaft. You dared not face it directly; your attacking right hand, at a critical moment, adjusted its course, bypassing Liu Bei, to punch the racing arrow.

A brilliant tactic, Surround Wei and Save Zhao!

"Boom!"

Your fist clashed violently with the arrowhead. The hidden force on the arrow sent you flying over ten meters, and you tumbled a few times on the ground before stabilizing.

Looking up, you saw the archer was Gongsun Zan!

"Li Muyun, for your despicable, shameless, third-rate villainy, how dare you ambush me!" As if he circled the gates of the underworld, Liu Bei, drenched in cold sweat, regretfully rode slowly over to Gongsun Zan’s side.

You sneered, "It’s mutual, really, but to be honest, sometimes you feel like a pesky fly; I just want to swat you dead with one slap!"

Standing beside Gongsun Zan, Liu Bei pointed at you, instructing Guan Yu, "Yun Chang, this man must not be allowed to live!"

Guan Yu nodded solemnly, and then you noticed the change in your perception of him that you couldn’t quite describe. The distance between you and Guan Yu was about thirty meters, which should theoretically be relatively safe, but for some reason, a deep unease arose within you.
