In Cao Cao's tent:
"Have you investigated thoroughly?"
Cao Cao asked without looking up as he flipped through the military documents.
"Absolutely. Don't worry, Prime Minister!"
The one talking to Cao Cao was none other than Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo.
Xun Yu continued:
"Bai Feng was born into a poor family in Xinye. His parents passed away early and he later became a merchant in Xinye. Although he's not the richest in the region, he's still one of the wealthiest people in Xinye.
"Apart from the time Liu Bei ordered the people to flee and set fire to Xinye, he's never crossed paths with Liu Bei."
"Good!"
Cao Cao closed the document and laughed contentedly:
"Xuande, oh Xuande, you've sent me a peerless genius with this fire! I'll have to thank you properly the next time we meet! "
Xun Yu laughed dryly along with Cao Cao, but he wasn't very happy.
Although he'd only met Bai Feng a few times, Xun Yu could clearly sense that Bai Feng was a peerless genius. Just from the fact that he'd broken the Crouching Dragon Stratagem, Xun Yu had already lost to him.
"I hope this person has no intention of usurping the throne and is willing to help the Prime Minister restore the Han Dynasty. I wonder if this person's appearance is a blessing or a curse for the Han Dynasty … "
Xun Yu muttered to himself, but he didn't show it.
"Lord Xun, what's the situation at Changban?"
Cao Cao stretched and asked with a smile.
Xun Yu cupped his hands and said:
"Prime Minister, everything is going according to Mr. Bai's plan. According to the latest reports, Liu Bei has already lost some of the people's support. Since our army is helping the people rebuild Xinye, most of the people have already returned to Xinye with our army."
Cao Cao stroked his beard, his smile fading.
"Lord Xun, tell me. Should I kill Liu Bei now or let him go to Jiangxia?"
Xun Yu raised his head and said with a grave expression:
"In my opinion, Liu Xuande should be allowed to return to Jiangxia to show the Prime Minister's benevolence."
"Liu Xuande gathered the hearts of the people and called upon the geniuses of the world. Now, no matter if it's his reputation or military strength, both of them have suffered great losses, and it's impossible for him to cause any great waves. If we kill this person now, it probably won't be beneficial to us."
"On the contrary, if the Prime Minister lets Liu Xuande go, the Prime Minister will have more people than him, and our army will become a benevolent army."
Cao Cao laughed when he heard that.
"Hahahaha, it's exactly as Mr Bai said. Lord Xun, give the order for our troops to return to camp!"
Hearing Cao Cao's words, Xun Yu felt a little uncomfortable, but he still cupped his hands and retreated. "Yes!"
Meanwhile, in Changban.
Bai Feng was sitting in a carriage and retreating with the Cao Army.
"System, why is this Li Yuanba here? You can't just suddenly appear beside me, right? With Boss Cao's personality, he'll definitely be suspicious if another person appears out of nowhere. "
Bai Feng asked in confusion.
Of course, these skill points could be used. After obtaining the Chi Heart Dragon Scale Armor, Bai Feng had already been automatically equipped. However, the placement of Li Yuanba was a little tricky.
The System said calmly, "Host, don't worry.
"Don't worry, Host, the identity of General Li Yuanba has been arranged for you. You will see him soon."
"It's arranged? What's his identity? "
Bai Feng was suddenly interested.
"He's the host's page boy."
The cold mechanical female voice sounded again.
"Page boy?!"
Bai Feng almost spat out the water in his mouth.
Who was Li Yuanba?
During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, his martial strength crushed Yuwen Chengdu, and he was the most powerful hero of the Sui and Tang Dynasties! Was he going to be my page boy?
Yuwen Chengdu's combat strength was said to be not inferior to Lu Bu's, let alone Li Yuanba. He was definitely an existence that could defeat Lu Bu.
"Mr. Bai!"
A soldier's shout outside the carriage pulled Bai Feng back from his thoughts. Bai Feng lifted the curtain and asked in confusion.
"Mr. Bai! Among the people of Xinye, someone wants to see you. We can't stop him. Look … "
The soldier hurriedly reported to Bai Feng.
"Someone wants to see me?"
Hearing this, Bai Feng got out of the carriage and asked.
"Yes."
The soldier continued, "That person said that he was your page boy, but after the battle of Xinye, you lost contact. A soldier heard your name when he was praising you, so he came to see you."
Bai Feng was delighted. What page boy? Li Yuanba was here!
"Bring him here."
Bai Feng coughed softly and waved his hand.
"Yes!"
Although his combat strength was now almost invincible, he was still alone after all. There was no one he could trust.
Even if Cao Ren and Dian Wei were his little fans, they were still Boss Cao's men.
Li Yuanba was different. A general rewarded by the system would never be disloyal to him. Such a person would definitely be easy to use.
"Master! I've finally found you! "
As soon as Li Yuanba arrived, he pushed aside the soldiers around him and rushed toward Bai Feng, ignoring the obstruction of the soldiers around him.
The soldier sat down on the ground, dumbfounded.
"Isn't this Mr. Bai's page boy? How come he's so strong?"
Bai Feng raised his hand, and Li Yuanba immediately stopped. Bai Feng began to secretly size him up.
Li Yuanba was wearing a scholar's robe. He looked like an ordinary page boy who was very weak.
However, it was indeed described in the official history that Li Yuanba's face was sickly and skinny. His arms were as strong as four elephants, and he was invincible.
"It's good that you're here. Let's continue our journey back!"
Bai Feng patted Li Yuanba's shoulder and led him to the carriage.
Li Yuanba was a man of few words. He did not say a word after he got on the carriage. It seemed that his memory had been erased by the system, and only the memory of being a page boy was left.
To cater to the current situation, the system "confiscated" Li Yuanba's 400-kilogram hammer.
"Open the system shop!"
Li Yuanba was not an outsider. Bai Feng directly entered his consciousness to check the newly unlocked functions.
In an instant, a huge shop page appeared in front of Bai Feng. A dazzling array of products stood in front of him, and each product had a VR-level display.
However, the shop page didn't cost gold coins. Instead, it cost reputation points and skill points.
The Reputation Points should be unlocked after the subsequent quests. Bai Feng ignored the Reputation Points and looked at the products that could be purchased with Skill Points.
The Heart Dragon Scale Armor that he had just obtained was among them. It was priced at 80,000 Skill Points and 200 Reputation Points!
"This thing is so expensive?"
Bai Feng touched the armor that was as thin as a cicada's wing. He could not feel its weight at all. He had not used it since he had obtained it. After all, there was no one who could get close to him, so he could not see its effects.
Since it was so expensive, it might have some hidden functions.
"Stop the carriage!"
