It was precisely these ten seconds that became Lu Bu's life and death moment.
"Is that the Slave of Three Surnames in front? Why don't you hurry up and throw away your life? "
Lu Bu rushed out of Ping County's north gate. Yang Rui took advantage of the remaining ten seconds of duel time to provoke Lu Bu. He even urged his horse to take a few steps forward, brandishing his spear and pointing it at Lu Bu.
"You dare to humiliate me, I will have your head!"
Yang Rui's words and attitude, in Lu Bu's eyes, was an undisguised slap to the face. Lu Bu naturally urged his Red Hare to charge at Yang Rui with even greater speed, wishing he could swallow Yang Rui whole.
However, in his anger, Lu Bu did not realize that Yang Rui did not slow down to put on airs. Instead, he intentionally maintained as much distance as possible. This was because from the start, Yang Rui did not intend to duel with Lu Bu. The more distance he had, the safer it would be.
After Lu Bu exited the city, the distance between him and Yang Rui was only a little more than an arrow's distance. Under his powerful charge, with the Red Hare's speed, he would be able to fight with Yang Rui in about two to three breaths of time.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"…"
However, just as Lu Bu was halfway there, a white stripe appeared out of thin air. Like a sudden thunderbolt in the middle of a rainy night, it drew an arc from top to bottom and sliced towards Lu Bu's neck.
This stripe appeared too suddenly. Although there was no sound, its might could be imagined. First, there was the flash of the blade, then the shadow of the blade, and finally the figure of the person. This was an attack that could not be avoided. It was the strongest attack of the Imperial Patrol's secret ninjutsu.
If it was any other ordinary person, perhaps they would have immediately fallen under the blade of Swallow Hatred. However, Lu Bu was really good. Just as the waterfall was about to cut his neck, Lu Bu tilted his head mechanically and actually slightly escaped from the waterfall's trajectory.
One must know that the Imperial Patrol's concealment technique was extremely sharp. Back then, during the national war, Yang Rui was only able to discover the Imperial Patrol's shadow through the Emperor's Thunderclap.
"Bang!"
A blood rainbow followed closely behind. Due to Lu Bu's slight evasive maneuver at the crucial moment, the strongest strike of the imperial guards didn't truly land on Lu Bu's neck!
The skin on his neck was only torn open. Although blood was spurting out, it did not pose any threat to Lu Bu. However, the attack of the Imperial Guards did not diminish in the slightest. The blade of the Imperial Guards landed on Lu Bu's left shoulder.
Even though Lu Bu was wearing heavy armor, the might of the imperial guard's blade still managed to cut through Lu Bu's armor. However, due to the resistance, it only managed to cause a wound that was neither light nor heavy. It didn't affect Lu Bu's attack power.
"Hah!"
Lu Bu's reaction was extremely fast. Although the attack was sudden, after the Imperial Patrol's attack landed on his body, Lu Bu immediately launched a sharp counterattack. A Fangtian Halberd was aimed at the Imperial Patrol's shadow. In a breath's time, five to six moves had already been launched.
However, the Imperial Patrol was extremely proficient in the art of assassination. After failing to succeed in one strike, it immediately retreated. It could also be said that the process of its attack was also the process of its body retreating. The only time the Imperial Patrol had appeared was for that one strike.
Even so, Lu Bu continued to unleash incisive attacks. His ultimate skill enveloped the surrounding space, causing the Imperial Patrol to suffer some damage. Suddenly, a mouthful of blood sprayed out from the sky. After that, the Imperial Patrol disappeared without a trace.
"Release!"
Just as the Imperial Patrol and Lu Bu were clashing, Yang Rui also chose to reject the duel mode. When the Imperial Patrol's shadow once again disappeared, Yang Rui immediately commanded the Divine Armaments Heaven Piercing Crossbows and Divine Armaments Crossbows to rain down upon Lu Bu.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh … "
"Huff! Huff! Huff … "
"…"
Perhaps the Divine Armaments Crossbows were still unable to cause any harm to Lu Bu. However, the might of the Divine Armaments Heaven Piercing Crossbows was comparable to that of a famous historical general's attack. Now that it was mixed within the dense barrage of crossbows, it was even more dangerous.
Even with Lu Bu's extraordinary strength, it was still extremely difficult for him to block this wave of Divine Armaments Crossbows. Lu Bu's Fangtian Halberd was brandished even more fiercely than before. The radiance of his ultimate skill was also brighter. The barrage of crossbow bolts was smashed into smithereens.
"Pfff!"
Even though Lu Bu's defense was impenetrable, in this wave of crossbow bolts, a Divine Armaments Crossbow still managed to hit his left calf. Instantly, a large amount of blood sprayed out.
The reason for this was because of the Red Hare beneath Lu Bu. Although the Divine Armaments Heaven Piercing Crossbows were powerful, there was still a period of time for them to reload. If it was just blocking a wave of crossbow bolts, logically speaking, the probability of injuring Lu Bu was not that high.
However, although the might of the Divine Armaments Heaven Piercing Crossbows was only comparable to that of a famous historical general's attack, the density of the crossbow bolts was extremely high. Most importantly, these crossbow bolts were not precisely concentrated on Lu Bu's body. There would always be a portion of the crossbow bolts that would deviate from Lu Bu's surroundings.
Moreover, Lu Bu was also very concerned about his Red Hare. Thus, during this period of defense, he had been constantly maintaining the Red Hare. It was inevitable that a lot of his energy would be diverted, resulting in his leg being injured by an arrow.
"Hah!"
After being hit by an arrow, Lu Bu had finally endured the first wave of Divine Armaments Heaven Piercing Crossbow bolts. Moreover, he had seized the opportunity to charge toward Yang Rui. The might of the Divine Armaments Heaven Piercing Crossbows was already negligible to him. Thus, the Divine Armaments Heaven Piercing Crossbows did not have the opportunity to launch another wave of crossbow bolts.
Seeing Lu Bu charging toward him, Yang Rui still had a disdainful attitude as he slowly raised his spear. It was as if he did not put Lu Bu in his eyes. This caused Lu Bu's chest to be filled with endless rage.
"Keng! Keng! Keng … "
"…"
In the next moment, the sound of weapons clashing rang out. The two sides were locked in battle. Spears and halberds were exchanged. It was extremely sharp!
However, the battle was not between Yang Rui and Lu Bu. Right now, looking at the silhouette of the white horse and silver spear, who else could it be other than Zhao Yun?! Yang Rui remained where he was on his horse. He calmly looked at the two people in the battle.
The moment Lu Bu was about to charge in front of him, Zhao Yun had already blocked Lu Bu's path on his horse. In an instant, the two had engaged in a great battle.
Ren Zhan said: Lu Bu from the previous Three Kingdoms. Zhao Yun from the later Three Kingdoms. Even if it was not a comparison of martial strength, it was also a reflection of the true strength of the two. In the real world, there were no records of the two fighting. Right now, the two were engaged in a fierce battle in the game.
Of course, the current Zhao Yun was no longer just a game NPC. Yang Rui had already exchanged him into the real world. He also had a general understanding of the Three Kingdoms era. Naturally, he also had an even greater understanding of Lu Bu's divine bravery.
