Chapter 21

......

With a "bang!" Lü Bu severely wounded Wen Chou with thirty-five strikes, and another super expert lay dead on the ground. However, this time Lü Bu did not charge towards Yuan Shao; instead, he frowned slightly and looked towards the west, sensing two astonishing auras approaching him.

He smiled. Although these two auras were not as powerful as his, they rarely stirred the passion in his heart. "Come on, the experts I have been waiting for! Defeating ants cannot excite me; only by defeating experts can the passion in my heart be ignited!"

Guan Yu's green light grew larger as he approached, even beginning to squeeze Zhang Fei's black light.

"Lü Bu, take this!" Guan Yu, with a stern face, solemnly uttered these four words, exuding an overwhelming aura.

Holding the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, Guan Yu could feel that he was already struggling to control his rampant power. However, Lü Bu, standing there motionless, was a perfect target from any angle!

"Good move!" Lü Bu's eyes rarely showed any concern. Even though he had seen through the essence of this move, he did not dodge. He was Lü Bu, and he disdained to dodge. In this world, only others would dodge him; no one could make him dodge.

"Clang!" A loud explosion echoed as Guan Yu's full-strength strike collided with Lü Bu's. The shockwave from the explosion directly killed most of the surrounding soldiers.

"You're not bad!" The dust settled, and Lü Bu, sitting on Red Hare, held his Heaven-Piercing Halberd with both hands, staring at Guan Yu. "With this move, Hua Xiong's death at your hands was not in vain! But to deal with me, you still lack a bit of skill!"

Guan Yu felt a surge of blood in his chest. He had never thought that someone could directly stop his full-strength strike. No, Lü Bu not only stopped it with his own strength but also forced him to retreat, even dispersing the momentum he had gathered with a single strike.

"A move with no retreat, if a normal person were to face it, they might be directly killed by the first strike due to being unable to withstand it. Even someone like Hua Xiong, if he managed to block it, would still be unable to break your momentum, leading to being killed by subsequent strikes. If they tried to dodge, it would only make your momentum even stronger, ultimately being cut down!" Lü Bu looked at Guan Yu calmly, explaining the power of his move.

Guan Yu silently adjusted his breathing, his expression still proud. He completely ignored Lü Bu's evaluation, hiding the turmoil in his heart behind his red face and half-closed, proud eyes. Even Lü Bu could not see the changes in Guan Yu's heart.

"Is this the first warrior of the world? To so casually withstand my strongest move!" Guan Yu, gripping the reins, stared at Lü Bu with slightly opened eyes. Unconsciously, he had already acknowledged Lü Bu's strength.

"Second Brother, I'll help you!" Zhang Fei, itching for a fight, shouted and prepared to charge forward after seeing Guan Yu being forced back.

"You're not bad..." Lü Bu glanced at Zhang Fei and said.

Lü Bu, who had charged into the enemy camp alone, felt no danger from the surrounding soldiers. The only ones who could stop him were the two in front of him.

"It seems there are only a few of you in the allied forces." Lü Bu looked at Yuan Shao with disdain, then at Cao Cao and the two Xiahou brothers who had just arrived.

Lü Bu released his aura at will. Guan Yu, with half-closed eyes, watched him without speaking. Even with his strongest strike, Guan Yu could not fathom the depth of Lü Bu's strength, which was unfathomable to him.

"Buzz!" With a sharp explosion, a silver arrow streaked across the night sky, shattering into star dust. Lü Bu frowned, turned his horse, and prepared to leave.

"Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, your heads will remain on your necks for now." Lü Bu sneered and turned his horse.

Xiahou Yuan, holding his bow, stared at Lü Bu. The overwhelming aura almost made it impossible for him to raise his hand. No matter how much he shouted in his heart, he could not raise his hand to shoot the arrow he had prepared.

"Lü Bu, don't run!" Xiahou Yuan, biting his lower lip, finally roared and shot the arrow he had prepared. A black light tinged with blood shot towards Lü Bu like a meteor.

After the arrow, Xiahou Yuan looked as if he had been pulled out of water.

Lü Bu sneered and swung his halberd to knock down the arrow. Then, he took out his precious bow from his horse, sneering continuously. "Let you understand what true archery is!"

His thumb pulled the bowstring, and a golden-red shadow slowly appeared on the bow without an arrow. As the bowstring was drawn, the arrow gradually solidified. He released it, and a golden-red streak of light pierced the night sky, silently piercing a straight line of a thousand meters.

"Slipped, haven't used a bow in a long time." Lü Bu's laughter, tinged with mockery, echoed. When he turned his head, the banner was completely shattered.

Guan Yu turned and looked at Xiahou Yuan, who was drenched in cold sweat. When Lü Bu's aura completely suppressed them, this man, who could condense qi into a force, still managed to shoot an arrow.

"Congratulations." Guan Yu, holding the reins, controlled his half-dead Xiliang warhorse and bowed to Cao Cao and the Xiahou brothers.

After Lü Bu left, Xiahou Yuan's strained spirit faded. When Guan Yu came over, Xiahou Yuan, feeling safe, could no longer hold back his fatigue. He loosened his grip on the reins and slowly fell.

"Miǎocái!" Cao Cao sensed something was wrong when Xiahou Yuan loosened his grip and tried to catch him, but Xiahou Yuan fell down.

Fortunately, Xiahou Dun caught Xiahou Yuan. "Brother, Miǎocái is fine, just exhausted from the internal qi loss and fainted."

"Cao Gong, when Xiahou Miǎocái wakes up, he has a good chance of breaking through his current level. If he doesn't, ask him how he managed to shoot that arrow today." Guan Yu, unusually talkative, then turned his horse and prepared to leave.

"Hey, Lü Bu is gone! I wanted to see the show." Chen Xi arrived just as the fight was over, like a police officer arriving late at the scene.

"Lü Bu is gone." Zhang Fei said with a black face, but he was already quite dark, so it wasn't noticeable.

"Oh, you didn't stop him?" Chen Xi raised an eyebrow and said with a strange expression.

"Couldn't stop him..." Zhang Fei's face turned even darker. He had thought he was strong enough, but today he had seen what true strength was.

Lü Bu had easily defeated Yan Liang and Wen Chou, then stopped Guan Yu's strongest move with a single strike, and his overwhelming aura suppressed everyone present.

"Oh, right, I am Chen Xi from Yingchuan, Chen Zichuan. Greetings to the leader and Cao Gong." Chen Xi, as if just noticing Cao Cao, smiled and bowed. Honestly, this was the first time he had formally introduced himself.

Cao Cao, with great grace, returned the bow but was also concerned about Xiahou Miǎocái's condition. After greeting Yuan Shao, he quickly returned to camp. Yuan Shao was in a panic, treating Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and didn't even acknowledge Cao Cao, let alone the unknown Chen Xi.

ps: What is the point of this? I've tried uploading it several times, but it won't go through.

Speaking of Lü Bu's combat, if it were magnified tenfold, Guan Yu's combat power would also be magnified tenfold. It seems Lü Bu could kill several Guan Yus. With proportional enhancement, the earlier people gain more strength, and the gap with those behind them widens. By this rule, Lü Bu is truly heaven-defying.
