Chapter 1857: Chapter 1858: I Want to See You
"Oh, it’s Xuan Gao, long time no see." You appear very natural, as if entering your own courtyard.
Zang Ba waved to his subordinates and said, "Put down your weapons, we’re afraid we can’t even scratch a hair on them with just us."
You chuckle, saying to Zang Ba, "Take me to see Duke Wen, I have something to discuss with him."
Coming alone to Duke Wen Mansion, naturally wanting to see Lü Bu, Zang Ba understood this clearly. He just couldn’t comprehend why you appeared here, especially since all of Chang’an City knew that Zhang Xiu and nephew had dispatched large troops to hunt you down.
"Could it be that he’s here seeking help?"
Seeing your relaxed expression, Zang Ba dismissed the thought. Reluctantly, he had to take you to see Lü Bu, otherwise, who knows what kind of outlandish actions you might take.
He hadn’t witnessed your shocking scene of smashing the city gate, but he could imagine it because he knew you had the ability. When the news reached Lü Bu, who was plotting with trusted aides, Lü Bu merely nodded faintly, as if knowing you were capable of such a feat.
Of course, Zang Ba didn’t dare take you to Lü Bu’s private courtyard. At Duke Wen Mansion, apart from Lü Bu’s trusted aides, no one was permitted to step into the private courtyard, on pain of death.
Bringing you to a more secluded hall, Zang Ba closed the door and withdrew.
You sat calmly on the chair, crossing your legs, slightly closing your eyes.
Before long, footsteps approached from afar.
The door opened, and you opened your eyes to find Lü Bu standing in heavy armor before you.
Seeing Lü Bu’s appearance, you couldn’t help but sigh, "I say, Feng Tian, even at home you’re dressed like this, doesn’t it feel awkward?"
Lü Fengxian gave a slight grunt, voice muffled through the tightly sealed helmet, making it hard to discern her gender: "What are you doing here?"
"Naturally, I’m here to discuss a big business deal with you, something highly beneficial without any harm to you."
As you spoke, you even winked at Lü Fengxian.
"Speak." Lü Fengxian clearly wasn’t buying it.
You shrugged, smiling, "After all, I’m still a guest, but there’s not even a maid to serve tea, this kind of hospitality isn’t great."
"In my mansion, knowing you’re here, at least six people want to kill you, I suggest you leave soon."
"Is this your way of showing concern for me?" you looked at Lü Fengxian with a teasing smile.
Lü Fengxian simply stopped talking. When it came to matters of the heart, she was always introverted and unwilling to expose them, as she bore the hopes of her entire family.
"Alright, alright, just kidding with you, in fact, this time I’ve come to conspire with you to kill someone."
"Who?"
"Dong Zhuo!"
Lü Fengxian was startled, her voice slightly raised: "Hmph! Conspire? Don’t you know Dong Zhuo is my adoptive father?"
"Mere lip service, everyone knows that. Besides, I don’t think you’re just a naive young girl, behind you must be a massive force, which turned you into this person, neither human nor ghost."
You’re always straightforward, and in front of Lü Fengxian, there was no need to hide or cover up. Moreover, this was a bold speculation of yours regarding Lü Fengxian.
"You..."
Lü Fengxian was at a loss for words, because you had hit the mark.
"Seize him!"
At that moment, the door was kicked open, and a group of people came filing in!
"Get out!"
Before seeing the person, a voice emerged!
A surge of anger, like a flood burst from a broken dam, shook the hearts of those who had just set foot in, causing them to reel back.
This was your first time feeling Lü Fengxian’s unrestrained aura; just this aspect alone made you feel somewhat inferior.
As your gaze swept over, you noticed a tall, burly, firm and steady-expressioned middle-aged man standing at the door, locking his eyes onto you, filled with intense killing intent.
"Hey, uncle, this should be our first meeting, why the murderous look?" Facing the middle-aged man’s killing intent, your expression remained relaxed. It’s not arrogance, though you can’t beat Lü Fengxian, if you go all out to escape, she couldn’t keep you.
The middle-aged man remained expressionless, his demeanor stern and focused, making you quite displeased.
"Hey, keep staring like that, don’t blame me later for disrespecting the elders and the young!" You were not without temper; being stared at made you uncomfortable.
"Gao Shun, take your men and leave, immediately!"
With Lü Fengxian’s order, you promptly stood, looking at Gao Shun with keen interest: "You’re Gao Shun, hmm, nice to finally see a living person. So where’s your Decisive Battle Camp, take me to have a look."
Gao Shun’s face, initially stern and steady, twitched upon hearing "Decisive Battle Camp," and without a word, he swung a punch at you!
"Hey!"
Laughing, you also launched a punch at Gao Shun!
"Boom!"
The two fists collided, and Gao Shun’s large body staggered back. Only then did his face show shock: "Vajra Body!? Innate Divine Strength!?"
"Brother has many virtues, even if you mention these two, I won’t be particularly happy."
Though you say this, the self-satisfied look on your face was obvious even to a fool.
"Gao Shun, do you need me to repeat myself?"
Lü Fengxian’s voice, though low, carried an undeniable authority that compelled compliance. Before leaving, Gao Shun cast a complex glance at you, then hurriedly led his men away.
"The household servant acted on his own, please don’t take offense."
While speaking with you, Lü Fengxian’s voice remained thick and heavy, yet there was an indescribable emotional undertone.
"That’s quite normal. A person whom you meet personally will naturally attract their animosity, given your exceedingly special status." You sat down again, looking straight at Lü Fengxian, and softly said, "With no one around now, take off your helmet, I want to see you."
"I want to see you" — the words seemed to carry immense magic, compelling Lü Fengxian to willingly remove a helmet only ever taken off when sleeping.
Without the helmet, Lü Fengxian was still stunning, yet her brows carried a hint of hesitation, stirring a sense of pity within you.
"You’ve lost some weight."
