Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1714: Chapter 1631: Maybe He Really Has Grown Weak_2

Lyu Bu’s eyes narrowed as he stared at Nanhua with a hint of coldness and asked, ”Are you a Han dynasty immortal?” There was significant enmity between Lyu Bu and immortals.

”Yes.” Nanhua nodded. Judging by Lyu Bu’s expression, he knew the other party had no favorable opinion of immortals. Regardless of the hostility, Lyu Bu had the right to be displeased with immortals, and even the right to kill one.

Diao Chan reached out and grabbed Lyu Bu’s right arm. Originally planning to leap into action and kill Nanhua on the spot, Lyu Bu forcibly restrained his anger, but his expression remained grim.

”Hmph, on Chan’er’s account, I’ll spare your life. Get lost!” Lyu Bu shouted in Nanhua’s direction, his momentum carrying his will, unsettling Nanhua’s stance.

”This is for you.” Nanhua wasn’t particularly afraid. Unlike other immortals, he could escape from Lyu Bu’s grasp if he needed to. So he casually passed the marine chart and the current situation of the Great Han Navy using a spell to Lyu Bu.

After doing all this, Nanhua flew away directly. Lyu Bu, of course, would handle everything from there.

As expected, upon seeing the marine chart and the Great Han Navy trapped with Gan Ning’s forces, Lyu Bu’s expression darkened. This was the Kushan Navy.

Having massacred several Kushan naval groups, Lyu Bu didn’t fear them too much. But just from the spell visualization left by Nanhua, one could feel the imposing presence; these were true Kushan elite troops.

”Oh, a real man!” Watching Gan Ning knock out two others and then desperately resist the legion attack, Lyu Bu appeared satisfied.

”Though not particularly strong, still a real man.” Seeing Gan Ning and his unit launch a do-or-die attack on Kasani without fear, Lyu Bu showed a satisfied expression and casually sent a wisp of inner Qi to the Great Kun. ”Little Kun, go fend off that ship and rescue the people for me, then come find me.”

After speaking, he nudged the Great Kun beneath his feet, which immediately submerged into the water, swimming dozens of miles ahead, and fortunately, the Great Kun was large enough and fast enough to catch up in time.

As for the arrow, it was Lyu Bu himself who struck. Since he wanted to protect the other party, he couldn’t let them be killed. Subsequently, the Great Kun rammed the warship, and as Gan Ning fell into the sea, his consciousness was already blurred due to excessive bleeding, yet Nanhua appeared at that moment and administered a dose of talisman water to him.

His injuries instantly healed by overdrawing vitality, but speaking of Inner Qi Manifestation beings, as long as they weren’t dead, overdrawing a bit of vitality wasn’t considered anything.

At that moment, Gan Ning’s blurred consciousness only remembered a huge fish with a wide-open mouth swallowing him. At that time, Gan Ning, whose eyes were already closed, inwardly mocked himself, ”I didn’t die on the road of conquest but end up swallowed by a fish; this is truly frustrating for me, Gan Ning.”

After conveniently saving Gan Ning, Lyu Bu rode Red Hare, holding Diao Chan, and headed toward the Han dynasty as marked on the marine chart.

”Fengxian, are we returning to the Central Plains?” Diao Chan nestled in Lyu Bu’s arms, feeling a bit of trepidation at returning home. Recalling the peace in Australia and the chaotic battles in the Central Plains, Diao Chan hesitated about whether to return to the Central Plains, knowing that returning there meant stepping back into the vortex.

”Yes, I have found the way back to the Central Plains. Soon, in no more than two hours, we will be back in the Central Plains.” Lyu Bu said with a smile to Diao Chan.

”Can’t we not go back?” Diao Chan looked at Lyu Bu’s smile, remained silent for a while, and then spoke up.

Immediately, Lyu Bu reined in the horse, causing Red Hare to nearly flip head over heels due to Lyu Bu’s immense strength, letting out a mournful cry. However, Lyu Bu paid no attention to Red Hare, though fortunately, Diao Chan remembered to extend a hand and soothe Red Hare’s mane, calming it down.

”Why don’t you want to go back?” Lyu Bu asked perplexed.

”I just don’t want to go back.” Diao Chan lowered her head, not wanting Lyu Bu to see her expression. Compared to her deceased adoptive father, probably, her husband, for whom she had nearly given everything, was more important.

[I’m sorry, adoptive father, Chan’er is really worried about Fengxian.] Diao Chan bowed her head silently.

”Uh, why don’t you want to go back?” Lyu Bu felt his head pounding. Initially, he was cultivating, but because Diao Chan insisted on going back, he stopped cultivating to find the way home. Now, with only a few hours left before they reached Bingzhou, Diao Chan didn’t want to go back anymore, making Lyu Bu feel quite aggrieved.

”Just don’t want to.” Diao Chan shook her head repeatedly, not revealing her inner thoughts, merely silently stroking Lyu Bu’s chest armor, beneath which were wound after wound, some severe enough to be life-threatening.

Lyu Bu scratched his head, puzzled by all this. Reflecting that Lyu Qiling had Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and others watching over her, he nodded in accommodation and turned the horse back in the direction from which they came.

After flying a while, Diao Chan slowly opened her mouth, saying, ”Fengxian, I’m sorry...”

Lyu Bu looked bewildered, completely unable to comprehend Diao Chan’s thought process, and finally, he could only touch his cheek and laugh heartily, saying, ”It’s nothing, nothing at all. As long as you’re happy, that’s what matters. Anyway, we can always return whenever we wish; it’s not far, just a day to fly back.”

”Mmm.” Diao Chan replied softly, burying her face. Somehow, Lyu Bu sensed Diao Chan might not be in a good mood, but he didn’t know why.

[Was it that immortal just now? Letting him go was a mistake. Perhaps I should track down and finish him off.] Lyu Bu pondered briefly with his limited mental capacity, suspecting that Nanhua was the issue.
