Chapter 1942: Chapter 1944: If You Have the Guts, Don’t Run
"Lord Liu was killed by Li Muyun!"
"The governor was beaten to death with a stick by Li Muyun!"
At this moment, you are already surrounded by Liu Bei’s Whiteeye soldiers, numbering around two thousand. They had been hiding among the ordinary soldiers, moving with you and gradually encircling, until finally surrounding you completely.
Within a ten-meter radius around you, there are no living people; all the Whiteeye soldiers who approached were crushed into mincemeat by you, dying a gruesome death! Even though the pillar in your hand is massive and weighs over a thousand pounds, you swung it effortlessly, faster than an ordinary man could swing a knife. In the beginning, dozens of Whiteeye soldiers died at your hands.
"Li Muyun, I never expected you to end up like this today!" At this moment, Liu Bei’s voice came from more than a hundred meters outside the city.
Although you know Liu Bei’s location, you cannot see his figure, as he probably knows how dangerous you are and dares not reveal himself easily.
You don’t bother responding to Liu Bei. After some venting, your heart gradually calms down. Truth be told, like Cao Cao, you made the mistake of underestimating the enemy. Additionally, your actions were impulsive, not anticipating Liu Bei’s backup plan. From the previous words, it wasn’t hard to understand that Liu Biao is dead, and Liu Bei is likely to seize the opportunity to take over the entire Jingzhou.
This is the so-called fisherman’s benefit.
For you, losing Jingzhou is acceptable, but you must obtain Yu Huangzhi; under no circumstances will you abandon Emperor Yu. Therefore, you must find Cai Xiao!
Given the current situation, you can only temporarily withdraw from Jingzhou and later search for Cai Xiao’s whereabouts.
In truth, you have some thoughts, but for now, you don’t want to confront them. It seems that Cai Xiao has betrayed you.
Otherwise, despite Zhu Geliang’s widespread influence, it would have been impossible to set an ambush in Cai Xiao’s room. Moreover, you’ve practically searched the entire governor’s mansion and still haven’t found Cai Xiao. Currently, there are two possibilities: firstly, Cai Xiao and Liu Biao are controlled by Liu Bei; secondly, Cai Xiao has sided with Liu Bei and conspired to kill you.
At this moment, the only option you have is to leave Jingzhou!
Suddenly, you violently strike the ground thrice with the giant wooden pillar in your hand, the thunderous sound echoing in all directions. This is a signal; upon receiving it, Xiao San and the others, who were still fleeing in all directions, rush towards the northern gate of Jingzhou City swiftly.
"What, is the valiant Great General preparing to retreat?" Liu Bei’s voice is heard from among the crowd in the distance.
You still ignore that dead eunuch, taking a deep, slow breath. Then, everyone sees a faint glow emanating from your body, especially noticeable in the darkness, causing even the Whiteeye soldiers closest to you to be startled.
In the gazes of everyone around, you suddenly raise the giant wooden pillar above your head, and at the peak of inhale, you hurl it fiercely towards the east!
"Boom!"
A loud explosion follows, with airwaves sweeping through!
Under all eyes, you leap up with speed exceeding human limits, astonishingly landing on the giant wooden pillar already flown dozens of meters away. Just like this, under incredulous gazes, you step on the giant wood, flying towards the eastern city wall.
"Why are you standing there, chase!" Chen Dao is the first to react, immediately leading the Whiteeye soldiers to sprint rapidly on the ground.
"Cavalry team, exit the city to intercept, bring him back alive, or dead!" Liu Bei sent out all his forces.
Jingzhou City is huge; the governor’s mansion lies at its center in the eastern city. After flying a distance through the air, the giant wooden pillar finally falls into the courtyard of a wealthy household, collapsing three rooms. As your body descends with the pillar’s impact, you soar into the air, landing on the road outside the courtyard. Without any pause, you continue leaping, using residential rooftops as stepping stones, quickly heading for the Eastern City.
As you are about to reach the Eastern City, countless arrows shoot towards you. Reacting decisively, you stomp hard, breaking through the roof of a house, and emerge from the other end, covered in dust and debris as you burst out.
"Li Muyun, despite your brave title, you’re just a cowardly rat, have the guts not to run!" Chen Dao leads a cavalry team after you, cursing continuously.
You still ignore Chen Dao; the towering city walls of Jingzhou now lie before you, heavily guarded, with soldiers neatly arrayed around the city gate.
"Loose the arrows!" A familiar voice calls from atop the city walls, and another rain of arrows descends.
At this moment, hesitation is not an option. You sprint forward, casually sweeping a hand to deflect the arrows with Qi Force, using your back to take two arrows, breaking into the archers’ ranks.
In the chaos, you grab two archers, using their bodies as weapons and shields, charging towards the city tower.
"Li Muyun, where are you fleeing!"
It’s that voice again!
Turning your head, you see under the moonlight, a tall figure breaking through the air, wielding a long knife that glows azure in the moonlit sky, accompanied by a roar: "Azure Dragon Crescent Blade Slash!"
A sound similar to a dragon’s roar emanates from the long blade in that figure’s hand. In everyone’s eyes around, it looks as though the long blade transforms into a giant dragon, rushing at you with open, menacing tusks!
Given your current physical state and speed, you can completely dodge and leap down the city wall to escape unharmed. However, you must take on the opponent’s move, returning it with double pain from past encounters!
With a flick of your right hand, the Seven Treasures Sword appears in your grip. This Seven Treasures Sword is your personal weapon, rarely used, but once drawn, it inevitably draws blood!
Without the overwhelming roar or flamboyant techniques of the approaching foe, you merely hold the Seven Treasures Sword, slowly descending, then suddenly leaping again!
In the bright moonlight, under everyone’s watch, you and the long-knife figure cross each other on the moon’s disc. Before everyone’s eyes, your figure in the night sky suddenly halts, then pivots down outside the city wall. Meanwhile, the long-knife figure lands on one knee, seemingly injured.
"Chen Dao! Thief Li is injured, he won’t get far, chase him!" Under the moon’s light, the long-knife figure finally reveals his true face. It is Liu Bei’s sworn brother, Guan Yu!
The armor on Guan Yu’s chest is torn, exposing skin and flesh underneath, with a deep wound.
"Yun Chang, are you alright?" Chen Dao rides up to the city below, habitually asking.
