Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1469: Chapter 1417: Discovery

Zhou Yu awkwardly stood by his tent, watching the increasingly exaggerated rain. It was truly a torrential downpour. Zhou Yu swore that he only thought he was leaving, and Guo Jia might come to cause trouble, so a bit of rain to dampen things and avoid being burned by Guo Jia at the end.

As a result, Guo Jia didn’t play by the usual rules. Isn’t the battlefield principle that the more the enemy wants to do something, the more you shouldn’t let him do it? How come with Guo Jia, not only did he not stop the rain, he even fanned the flames? This looked like a conspiracy no matter how you viewed it.

”Damn, why is the rain so heavy!” Sun Ce ran back under a layer of Inner Qi Light Shield, seeing Zhou Yu standing by the tent, ”Gongjin, quickly disperse this rain!”

Zhou Yu glanced at the slightly embarrassed Sun Ce, thought for a moment, and regardless of whatever plot Guo Jia had, since the opposite side was fanning the flames, he would dismantle it. In any case, he couldn’t let Guo Jia accomplish what he wanted.

”The other side is making it rain, I’ll give it a try!” Zhou Yu said expressionlessly, then forcefully released his spiritual capacity to start dispelling the clouds.

Across the river, Guo Jia smugly watched the increasingly heavy rain. Although a large part of the rain was due to natural factors, after all, he had put in some effort, so Guo Jia was quite satisfied.

”Eh!” Just as Guo Jia was feeling sentimental, a crack suddenly appeared in the overcast sky, and then the dark clouds started to part on both sides.

”Henghengheng, you think it rains when you say so, and stops when you demand it, as if I’m dead?” Guo Jia sneered, also releasing his spiritual capacity. Besides respecting Chen Xi and Xun Yu, even with the twice purified Li Youu, he wouldn’t back down.

”Hmm?” Just as Zhou Yu had pulled the rain clouds apart, he felt a resistance. He tugged at his mouth; unbelievably, Guo Jia was actually confronting him, but the more he resisted, the more it suggested a conspiracy. Without a word, he increased his effort, for Zhou Yu wasn’t a pushover, who feared whom!

Zhou Yu desperately tore apart the rain clouds, while Guo Jia fiercely pressed them back together. The rain clouds in the sky almost disappeared in one place, only to be filled again the next moment.

”I don’t believe you, Zhou Yu, have limitless spiritual capacity!” Guo Jia sneered, releasing his spiritual capacity. Both of them had plenty of it, and Guo Jia hadn’t figured out Zhou Yu’s spiritual talent, nor did he dare to actively trigger his own. It’s good to exhaust Zhou Yu!

Frankly, by now, Guo Jia understood that for most top civil officials, their spiritual talent had almost no burden. Besides Zhuge Liang, the spiritual talents of others, whether active or passive, consumed very little spiritual capacity.

Since he didn’t dare activate his spiritual talent, he might as well take this opportunity to make Zhou Yu unable to use his spiritual talent for a short time; at least this way, the odds of winning future battles would increase by another ten percent.

”You think you’re Chen Zichuan!” Just as Zhou Yu tore off a piece of rain cloud to throw away, Guo Jia snatched it back and placed it on the rain clouds again. Instantly, Zhou Yu coldly increased his output, for his spiritual capacity was terrifyingly ample with the Talent of the Zither, Legion Talent, and Spiritual Talent!

Last time on the Yangtze River, even Chen Xi could withstand it for a while. Since Guo Jia dared to compete with him, Zhou Yu wouldn’t back down either, and like how Guo Jia worried about Zhou Yu’s spiritual talent, Guo Jia’s withheld spiritual talent put pressure on Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu was also concerned that Guo Jia would ultimately turn the tables with his withheld spiritual talent, and now was a good opportunity. Without mentioning anything else, since Guo Jia had acted foolishly for so long to gain plenty of advantages, if he could also exhaust Guo Jia’s spiritual talent, it would truly be perfect.

”I’m not afraid of you!” Having replenished the rain clouds once again, Guo Jia finally grabbed Zhou Yu’s spiritual capacity, immediately maximizing his output of spiritual capacity, while Zhou Yu also hit back head-on, preparing to completely crush the opponent.

”Indeed, since my spiritual talent knocked me out, Bofu, go find Zihengg and Ding Gong!” Zhou Yu, struggling, instructed while turning his head. Just with these words, Guo Jia dealt a heavy blow, sending Zhou Yu into a brief daze.

At this time, the rain clouds were already starting to twist, and an entire rain cloud suddenly moved.

”Hahaha, Zhou Yu, that idiot, can’t hold up. Gong Xi, let’s beat him while he’s down!” Guo Jia laughed, turning to Chen Chi, saying without any integrity.

But before Guo Jia could relish in his triumph, three streams of spiritual capacity appeared on the opposite side. Although none reached their levels, Zhou Yu himself was fierce enough to withstand Guo Jia’s spiritual capacity, and the spiritual capacities of Lyu Dai, Lyu Fan, and others directly attacked Guo Jia’s spiritual capacity.

Within an instant, Guo Jia was somewhat dazed, and at this moment, he suddenly became aware of his condition, as his reaction force and thinking speed seemed to have decreased. Such a thing shouldn’t have happened before.

And just in such a dazed moment, the opponent seized the chance to pummel him, snapping Guo Jia’s attention back.

At this moment, Chen Chi’s spiritual capacity also arrived but to no avail, as Zhou Yu’s three spiritual streams were each on par with Chen Chi’s. As a result, when Chen Chi joined, he only managed to engage one stream, while the others still relentlessly harassed Guo Jia!

After a few successive hits, even with Guo Jia’s ample spiritual capacity, stars began to appear before his eyes, but at this point, Guo Jia’s mind was evidently not focused on the rain clouds any longer; he had identified an issue within himself—his thinking precision was compromised.

[My thinking precision has a problem!] Guo Jia recalled all the circumstances since he started exchanging blows with Zhou Yu and reviewed himself again, ultimately confirming that his thinking precision was compromised.

[It’s likely Zhou Yu’s spiritual talent; the problem with my thinking precision means many critical areas were ignored. In other words, Zhou Yu’s spiritual talent can make people overlook certain things?] At this time, Guo Jia relied purely on his spiritual capacity to resist forcefully. Although stars still appeared before his eyes, his mind regained its sharpness.

”It’s not that Zhou Yu is too strong; I inexplicably became weaker.” Reflecting on his previous self and current performance, Guo Jia’s complexion suddenly turned dark—it was indeed because he had weakened.

”This is your spiritual talent, to be able to disrupt my thinking mode. But now that I’ve detected this, you’re dreaming if you think you can win against me, Zhou Yu.” Guo Jia turned to the struggling Chen Chi beside him, ”Withdraw our spiritual capacity to the west with me!”

With an intent movement, Guo Jia’s spiritual capacity and Chen Chi’s both moved westward, and Zhou Yu, along with Lyu Dai and the others, rejoiced and naturally pursued the victory, driving the rain clouds westward along with their spiritual capacities.

Under the gaze of soldiers on both sides of the Huai River, a huge mass of rain clouds was soon pushed away.
