498 Crippled Conqueror (2/2)
Wu Guotai sighed, ”Anyway, I'll visit minister Lu again. I'll ask him to spare our family after they are done with Bofu.”
”Sure. Tell my step-mothers that I send them my regards, and I hope to meet their daughters again.”
”…”

Sun Ce flew southeast, heading back to Jianye at full speed. He ignored everything as the only thing in his mind was his life.
'WhatcanIdowhatdoIdowhyisthishappeningfuckmylifeIdon'tknowwhattodonextshouldIjustgobacktoJianyebymyselforshouldregroupwithmymenisLiFeihongstillchasingaftermehowcanIfighthimifhecanattackusanywherethisisnotfair!'
Sun Ce's thought was in a mess as he was panicking.
Seven blue gates opened before Sun Ce, and seven souls, carrying AK-47, left the portals. They pointed their gun at Sun Ce.
”DON'T GET COCKY!”
Sun Ce turned toward the nearest soul and launched his body toward it. He gathered his force and created a soul barrier around himself once more.
*BANG*
*BANG*
*BANG*
A hundred of bullets rained upon Sun Ce. As if they were ordinary stones, they could not penetrate into Sun Ce's body. However, flesh wounds, caused by the burning shells, began to appear.
”YAAAHH!!”
Sun Ce drew his sword, gathered his aura, and slashed toward one of Li Feihong's souls.
*Whoosh*
The slash missed.
The soul sneered at Sun Ce as it retreated back into the blue portal behind its back.
Sun Ce had the urge to chase into the portal, but he was afraid of the unknown. He gritted his teeth and continued to flee southeast.
More portals opened. As if they were trying to trap Sun Ce there, they surrounded him. Some of the blue gates appeared in front of Sun Ce, trying to lure him into entering them. Yet, Sun Ce avoided them like plagues.
The more Li Feihong attempted to drag Sun Ce inside his world, the better Sun Ce's flying skill was. Through struggling and fighting for his life, Sun Ce's strength continued to grow.
.
Li Feihong was calmly observing Sun Ce's reaction through his dimension monitors. Before his expression was as if he were a supreme being watching a worthless insect struggling for his life. But now, he doubted that if chasing after Sun Ce was a good move.
Li Feihong glanced at Xu Shu, ”I think this bastard is getting stronger. For some reason, he dodges all of my traps.”
Xu Shu, the former Liu Bei's strategist, was now working exclusively for Li Feihong in exchange for sparing Ma Chao and Liu Bei's life.
The new adviser shook his head, ”It's natural for someone who's fighting for his life to experience a rapid evolution or growth. You are cornering him and awaken his true potential indirectly. I suggest that you should get out there with General Zhang Liao, so you two can defeat him together.”
”What is the chance that Zhang Liao will get killed in the process?”
”50-50.”
Li Feihong clicked his tongue, ”No gambling. I won't risk it.”
”Then, Sun Ce will continue to become his majesty's threat. He will be a dangerous factor that can influence Sun Quan and Wu Guotai to rebel.”
”…Sun Quan, eh.”
Li Feihong groaned as he was aware of Sun Quan's potential. However, he had not learned that Sun Quan possessed dual-cultivation compatibility, which could obtain angel and demon wings.
Had Li Feihong been aware of Sun Quan's true potential, he would have spared no effort to slaughter this entire family bloodline.
”That's impossible. Any woman entering Zhang Tong's bed will become his love-slave. By now, Wu Guotai should have been craving for more night activities with him.”
”…”
Believing that the Sun clan would pose no threat to Tong, Li Feihong stopped chasing after Sun Ce. He left his private dimension to fly to Ye, hoping to deliver his prisoners and Lu Lingqi.
As Li Feihong was busy flying back home, Zhang Liao, who remained inside Li Feihong's world, reported the development to others in the clan chat.
Zhang Liao: ”Viceroy Li Feihong has killed Zhou Yu. Sun Ce and others have escaped.”
Lu Zhi: ”That's good enough. Any idea where the others went?”
Zhang Liao: ”We overheard their conversation. Sun Ce is heading southeast, so he might be going home. Sun Fang and Ling Tong are moving to Jinyang to assassinate Sir Ding Yuan. I suggest Sir Ding evacuate and hide ASAP.”
Ding Yuan: ”The hell!? I'm minding my own business here in peace. Why are they going after me!?”
Zhang Liao: ”From their conversation we had spied on them, they're trying to isolate General Lu Bu and assassinate him by soul-detonation.”
