"Someone is following us." Liu Bei reminded.
"I know …" Ye Cang's hand was already on the silver gun hidden under her cowboy cape.
The two of them looked at each other. Liu Bei stopped abruptly and pulled out his twin swords. Holding both swords in his hands, he stared at the black shadow coming from the sky.
Ye Cang was about to shoot him but Liu Bei saw who it was. "Wait, he's not hostile."
"How do you know?"
"Because my thigh's reflex told me. Usually, when there's hostility, he would tell me to run."
“`````”
"But don't be careless."
The black shadow landed and walked under the streetlight. He was wearing a fiery red shirt and had a handsome face. His long hair was draped over his shoulders. He was carrying a dark red zither and had a red sword on his waist. He looked valiant. "Big-eared Liu."
"I was wondering who it was. Unlucky Zhou." Liu Bei kept his twin swords. "Looks like you've been abandoned by your messenger again."
Liu Bei saw Zhou Yu's stiff face and walked over with a smile. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I've poked at your sore spot. Have a smoke to calm yourself down. Come, come."
Zhou Yu took over Liu Bei's cigarette. He lit it with his finger and took a deep puff. Smoke rose under the streetlight. "I bumped into Kongming on my way here."
"Him again? Sigh. Family misfortune. What did he say?"
"Nothing," Zhou Yu glanced at Ye Cang who was not far away and did not say much. Liu Bei did not ask either.
"Gongjin, if we could go back to that time and I had such a good thing, I reckon that half of the strategists would be mine. Guo Jia, Tian Feng, and the others are all people who like this."
"FengXiao is already taking poison pills and you still want to give him this? Tian Feng should be able to do it. He's obviously a heavy smoker. Give me a pack."
"…" Ye Cang looked at the two of them who looked like office workers after work. They were smoking and bragging. He sighed, put away his gun, and walked over.
"Come, little brother. Let me introduce you. This is Zhou Yu. Gong Jin. He's the Yu from Yu Shengliang."
"I've heard so much about you. Nice to meet you." Ye Cang had watched ancient dramas before.
This big-eared thief! Zhou Yu clenched his teeth and carefully observed Ye Cang. Although her weird outfit makes her look like a non-mainstream person, I'm afraid of these weird-looking non-mainstream people. There are so many weird reasons to terminate the contract with me. He glanced at Liu Bei. This fella has a good eye but I can't be careless when choosing a master. He took a deep breath and looked up at the moon. "Little brother, what do you think of Kongming?"
"Scum?" Ye Cang knew that Zhou Yu was angered to death by Zhuge Liang. Although it was a romance, their relationship was probably not that good.
"Little brother, you're really not an ordinary person! You're quite knowledgeable! I'm willing to help you get the Holy Grail! " Zhou Yu clasped his fist and summoned a magic circle to establish the contract. Ye Cang agreed but was speechless. "Why is Zhuge Liang so unpopular in your era …"
"Little brother, that fella. The first time I saw him, I knew he was definitely a scum with a good appearance." Zhou Yu pouted.
"Great minds think alike." Liu Bei nodded slowly.
"Then you should visit him three times." Ye Cang said.
"I was also tricked by that hothead Xu Yuanzhi."
"…" Ye Cang couldn't help thinking. Hey, hey. If Xu Shu knows, he's probably crying himself unconscious in the toilet.
Zhou Yu rolled his eyes. "When it comes to tricking, even Kongming is no match for you, Mr. Running."
"You flatter me, Short-lived Lord." Liu Bei's words made Zhou Yu's face twitch.
"Your son is an idiot!"
"Gong Jin! Old Cao will be angry! "
"…" Zhou Yu looked at Liu Bei who was not angry at all. This fella even made a self-deprecating joke about being cuckolded. He couldn't help but recall when Kongming came to Dong Yue Wu, this fella still had nothing to show for it. Yet, he was still able to fight against Cao Cao. The more he lost, the braver he became. He was indeed an overlord who could split the world into three parts.
"Alright, alright. Let's think about how to help little brother get Wen Zhong's belongings. With Gong Jin around, summoning Wen Zhong shouldn't be a problem." Liu Bei flicked the ashes off his cigarette.
"For now, the intel I have is that there might be a God-level hero spirit in the auction. It might be dangerous." Zhou Yu's words made Ye Cang concerned. "God-level hero spirit? How strong is it? "
"I'm not sure who it is, but there's no doubt that God-level hero spirits are terrifying. This thick-skinned guy and I belong to the super class, but we don't have any fatal weaknesses. For example, God-level hero spirits are like Jiang Ziya, Wen Zhong, Poseidon, Athena, Sun Wukong, Vegeta … bah bah, I've been led astray by those fat otakus, Yang Jian, and the like. Most of them are fantasy hero spirits. Although they are stronger than us, they aren't invincible. God-level hero spirits all have fatal weaknesses, which are 'geis'. In Hua Xia's language, it's taboo or forbidden. For example, Li Yuanba can't be struck by lightning. Take Wen Zhong for example, he can't be struck by lightning! God Guan Yu can't be struck by lightning! God Guan Yu can't be struck by lightning! This big-eared Liu can't be struck by lightning! "Zhou Yu explained.
"Even so, God-level hero spirits are still terrifying. It won't be easy for you to take advantage of their taboo. Many God-level hero spirits don't even know about their taboo." Liu Bei smiled wryly. "Uhm, can you not be so thick-skinned and big-eared? We're relatives, after all."
"Scram!" Zhou Yu was annoyed. Then, he sighed, "I saw Shang Xiang."
"Young man, we're going to have another great general." Liu Bei ran his fingers through his hair and took a deep breath. He looked like an experienced driver who was about to lead everyone into his car. "Let's go. Where are we?"
Ye Cang and Zhou Yu were speechless.
A dangerous aura suddenly descended upon them. Zhou Yu suddenly drew his blood-red sword and stabbed it into the ground. "Let's go!"
Ye Cang looked at a gigantic figure that suddenly appeared in front of them. It had no head, but there was a pair of terrifying eyes on its chest. Those eyes were filled with unyielding hatred. It was Xingtian! Ye Cang raised his dark battle axe high in the air. He noticed that Zhou Yu was the only one around. Where was Liu Bei!? He turned around and saw that Liu Bei was already at the end of the street. Damn!!!
The battle axe fell down like a thunderclap. However, Ye Cang and Zhou Yu both disappeared from their original spot as everything within a hundred meters of them was instantly razed to the ground.
"You're so fast!" A middle-aged woman who looked to be in her sixties was sitting on Xingtian's shoulder. She kept hitting Xingtian. "You piece of trash! You piece of trash! Hurry up and finish this! I still have to lead the dance at Xiao Ming Plaza tomorrow morning!! "
