VOLUME 9 CHAPTER 24: DON’T TELL ME THIS IS AN EMOTIONAL ENCOUNTER (1)
Yun Chang POV
Haa… Haa…
My eyes began to mist up a little and everything seemed blurry. I do not know if my mind is still steady but it’s empty for now. It seemed like I was thinking but also not, at the same time, I could not remember what led to the current situation.
There are a lot of things to say about what is happening now but this is most definitely my closest moment to death.
“Incoming!”
“Lord Guan Yu! Be careful!”
Thanks to Wen Yuan and Chen Dao’s roars, I was able to snap back to reality.
Un?! Coming again?!
“Zhou Cang, Guan Ping! Are the other girls in a safe place yet?!”
“They are!”
“Lord Hua Tuo is ready at anytime to provide medical a.s.sistance! Mother!”
Good. And stop calling me mother.
I raised the Green Dragon Crescent Blade in my hands and blinked as I looked ahead at the person ahead who was not particularly big but was more than enough to make me feel fear.
“Xuan De…”
That person lowered her head and seemed to be drunk as it muttered below her breath while wielding her double sided halberd. What she muttered pierced my heart as well.
“Lord Lu Bu! Big brother will return!” I plucked up some courage and said words that were both for myself and for this girl who had become a monster.
Yes. It’s very difficult to believe, or perhaps I do not want to believe, that the person before me is Lu Bu Lu Feng Xian.
When we learnt that big brother had gone missing, none of us believed that big brother had died. Zi Long then left shortly after to find big brother.
But in this period, Lord Lu Bu could not hold on to her sanity as expected. She went completely mad and attacked everyone indiscriminately.
And this time is Lord Lu Bu’s 6th time now. And this time is also the hardest for us who have had to deal with the previous 5 times.
“Ahhhhhh!”
“Chen Dao! Your side!”
Just then, Lu Bu began to move and lunged at Chen Dao with a single, swift step forward. I saw this and immediately yelled at Chen Dao while charging over to support her.
“Lord Lu Bu! Please wake up!” Chen Dao yelled but to no avail.
As Lu Bu got closer to Chen Dao, I could tell from her stance that she was going for the kill with a single, strong slash. Even if all I am unable to stop her, I must distract her somehow.
“Chen Gong! Cover her!”
“Incoming! Everyone careful now!” Chen Gong yelled and the rest of us who were charging over fell back.
Immediately, 4-5 arrows shot out at Lu Bu’s vitals–
“Uwaa!!”
A strong wind swept out in all directions following a roar as Lu Bu swung her halberd out and splintered the incoming arrows which fell to the ground in pieces.
“Ah!!”
“Yaa!”
She then swung at Chen Dao who managed to block it!
“Kua!”
In just a single bout, Chen Dao was sent flying to the side by Lu Bu’s monstrous strength.
…
At the same time, Lu Bu’s weapon was deflected into the other direction.
“Now!” Wen Yuan gave the command and Chen Dao quickly retreated, “Ya!!”
“Haa!!”
Wen Yuan and I slashed down at Lu Bu from different directions as I leapt into the air and somersaulted towards Lu Bu, using the momentum to strengthen my attack.
“…” Lu Bu merely remained silent as she raised her weapon to block our attacks. Though I believe Wen Yuan and my attacks are not weak in the sligh
test, she was still able to stop us with no problem at all.
“Yun Chang! Get back!”
Eh?
“Haa!!”
“Geh!”
But it was too late for me to react.
In the next moment after Lu Bu successfully stopped out attack, she spun her halberd and flung me out the side. Because I was still exerting strength on my weapon, this made me lose my balance entirely.
“Ha! Yaa– Ha!”
