Chapter 1875: Chapter 1876: This Is a Question Even a Pig Wouldn’t Ask
Liu Bei’s title as a virtuous and righteous gentleman was even more dazzling, known in every household.
Yet beneath this joyous atmosphere, there lingered a strange aura unknown to ordinary people.
"The auspicious time has come, the bride and groom shall bow to the hall!"
With a loud clear call, Mi Xiang, adorned in a radiant bridal gown, gracefully entered under the admiring gazes of countless men and the envious eyes of women. Beside her, aged more than a cycle older than Mi Xiang, was Liu Bei. Each held an end of a red silk ribbon, with a big red embroidery hanging in the middle.
Compared to Liu Bei’s beaming face, Mi Xiang appeared somewhat melancholy, walking with a blank expression. The deep eye bags, unmasked by heavy makeup, along with bloodshot eyes clearly told everyone she had experienced a heart-wrenching cry the day before.
Living in this era, especially as part of an exceptionally powerful wealthy family, Mi Xiang gained a life of luxury but lost the freedom possessed by ordinary families. Although she had long known her destiny and realized she could never change her life, she couldn’t forget the times that brought her endless memories and the man who appeared in her dreams every night.
There were no solemn vows nor romantic nights under the moon, but she held sweet and beautiful memories in her heart.
Mi Xiang subconsciously glanced around to see if the man who filled her heart was present, but she was disappointed again as she failed to find his trace despite her countless glances back.
Sighing softly, Mi Xiang could only accept reality, knowing she’d never escape the shackles imposed by her family, forever.
"Bow to Heaven and Earth—"
Under everyone’s gaze, Mi Xiang and Liu Bei knelt to bow to heaven and earth. However, when Mi Xiang lifted her head, she suddenly felt her vision blur.
"Yo, quite lively here." A voice that Mi Xiang could never forget even in her dreams reached her ears. As she focused her gaze, in surprise and joy, she discovered the man who appeared countless times in her dreams stood right in front of her, merely four or five meters away!
"Li Muyun!" Liu Bei roared in fury the moment he saw you, "What are you doing here!?"
You smiled, "Heh, hahaha, that’s a question even a pig wouldn’t ask."
As you spoke, a silhouette flashed in everyone’s sight, followed by a "bang!" The just risen Liu Bei was like being hit by a heavy truck, his whole body spinning out and crashing into the high platform where Mi Family elders and Tao Qian were seated, smashing the platform into pieces, leaving many dumbfounded.
"This is just a meeting gift, haha, a belated present, please accept it with a smile." A gentle smile constantly remained on your not-so-handsome but very pleasant-looking face, yet it somehow appeared eerie to others.
Afterward, you made a move that shocked the entire Mi Family clan. Without a word, you turned back to Mi Xiang, pulled her into your arms, and kissed those tempting red lips!
At that moment, Mi Xiang felt the world spinning, everything turned upside down; she had no idea what was happening. The only thing she knew for certain was that you arrived, you finally appeared!
"Li Muyun, I want your life!"
Liu Bei, driven by anger, apparently forgot about your dreadfulness. He charged down from the collapsed platform, throwing a seemingly powerful punch at you!
"Boom!" Liu Bei’s punch hit your back, making a rather loud noise, yet your body remained unmoved.
At this moment, as you turned your head towards Liu Bei, you licked your tongue with a sense of satisfaction, a malevolent grin appearing on your face.
"Not good!" Guan Yu suddenly yelled, leaping to attack you, but his speed was ultimately too slow. Your hand shot out swiftly, accurately grasping Liu Bei’s groin and squeezing fiercely—at that moment, every man present felt a shiver, a contraction, as if they heard the sound of something breaking.
"Ugh, aaaaahhhhh!!!"
Liu Bei’s face twisted in an expression so exaggerated that even the expression emperor would be ashamed, howling up to the sky!
"Tsk, Yang Di’s expressions wouldn’t be this exaggerated, huh, hahaha!"
You laughed loudly, holding onto Mi Xiang, flashing another silhouette, and just like that, left rapidly under everyone’s watchful eyes.
Your action nearly poked a hornet’s nest in Xuzhou, with all the forces of Liu Bei and the Mi family surrounding the entire Longmen Escort Agency in the shortest time possible.
At this moment, a man with a small mustache emerged from the ranks of over a thousand Mi Family people, arrogantly standing in front of the Longmen Escort Agency’s tightly closed doors, shouting, "Li Muyun, you brat, release my young miss at once! Or else, don’t blame us for being merciless!"
"Whoosh!"
Responding to the mustached man was an arrow shot from a bowstring, precisely striking his brow, killing him with a single shot!
Guan Yu, standing by, immediately shouted, "Archers ready!"
Rows of archers hurriedly emerged from the rear, forming three rows, each holding their bows and drawing the strings. At Guan Yu’s command, hundreds of arrows rained into the Longmen Escort Agency like a torrential downpour. However, the interior of the Longmen Escort Agency remained silent, as if it was nothing but a shell.
"What’s going on?" Mi Zhu turned to look at Guan Yu.
Guan Yu’s face was also stern; with Liu Bei suffering such a severe blow, his responsibility was the greatest. Although Liu Bei was being protected by the most elite warriors of his clan and was already undergoing treatment, anyone with a bit of common sense knew Liu Bei’s life was as good as over.
"They likely have already escaped."
"Escape? How is that possible! We closed the city gates immediately." Mi Zhu, a handsome man slightly older than Guan Yu, bore some resemblance to Mi Xiang in his features.
Just as Guan Yu was about to speak, his ears twitched slightly, catching the sound of a longbow being drawn!
"Quickly, take cover, shield bearers lift your shields!"
Guan Yu’s sudden order initially baffled many. Though Liu Bei’s troops reacted relatively quickly, responding immediately to Guan Yu’s command, due to the rush, many sword and shield soldiers had come out without carrying their shields. Therefore, when they saw a barrage of arrows shooting out from the walls of Longmen Escort Agency, many could only duck with their hands over their heads.
The Mi Zhu side, however, consisted not of real soldiers; they could at best be described as house servants, skilled in bullying the townsfolk but utterly chaotic in real combat scenarios. People pushed and shoved one another, trampled each other, with several even knocking down Mi Zhu.
Knocked down, Mi Zhu tried to get back up and curse, only to be met with a blur of incoming arrows!
Just as Mi Zhu despairingly shut his eyes, a figure swiftly appeared, swinging a long knife in his hands, deflecting all the incoming arrows.
"Thump!"
A dull thud came as Guan Yu seemed to take an arrow for Mi Zhu, an unspeakable gratitude welling in Mi Zhu’s heart.
Mi Zhu, hurriedly pulled up by slaves beside him, retreated into a nearby house.
Seeing Mi Zhu was safe, Guan Yu, without a word, pulled out the arrow from his body, fresh blood spurting out but quickly stopped by the True Qi within him.
Seeing Longmen Escort Agency was well prepared, Guan Yu decided not to force an attack but instead had his soldiers maintain a perimeter around the agency, keeping a distance. At the same time, Guan Yu ordered his men to the events to Liu Bei, urging Liu Bei to send reinforcements quickly.
When the soldiers Guan Yu dispatched arrived at Liu Bei’s mansion, Liu Bei’s surgery had already been completed, and he stared blankly at the ceiling.
"Why? Why did this happen, why me?" Liu Bei murmured softly as he lay alone in bed.
