June 16th . Night Time . Lu Bu Camp .

Zhang Ji, the leader of Dong Zhuo's caravan, snuck inside Lu Bu's camp tonight . He came with another messenger that Li Ru had entrusted into this job, Xu Da .

…

Xu Da was a reincarnator born in Tianshui City . In his previous life, he ravished several women, girls, and children . He always killed all of them after the deed and plundered their properties and belongings .

In this life, after he had realized that he was born into the ancient world, he joined Dong Zhuo Army without hesitation as he believed that he could ride on the tailcoat of this future tyrant and commit the same deeds in his previous life again .

He was not disappointed . Dong Zhuo had a habit of gathering good-looking young women into his harem . He dispatched his soldiers to collect every girl of the families that failed to pay the taxes, which Xu Da partic.i.p.ated in the harvest and took a few girls for himself .

However, Dong Zhuo found out later that some the captured women had been soiled and broken by Xu Da beforehand . In anger, he demoted Xu Da back to foot soldier and banned him from getting any promotion in the future ever since .

Fortunately, Li Ru still valued his talent . Later on, Xu Da was transferred under Li Ru's division .

Now, Li Ru made this man accompanying Zhang Ji into this task, which Zhang Ji did not like it at all .

…

"We're here . The rest is up to you . "

Zhang Ji whispered to Xu Da, who did not seem to pay attention to the surrounding and his instruction .

"I knew that, Jeez . Stop being a worrywart . You're not my grandmother . "

Xu Da grumbled and walked straight to Lu Bu's private tent without caring about hiding his ident.i.ty .

The guard soldiers saw Xu Da coming . They stepped forward with their spears and blocked his path .

"Who goes there!?"

"Identify yourself!"

Xu Da closed his eyes tight in annoyance . He picked his ear using his pinky finger and exclaimed .

"You all bunch of noisy bugs . Look into my eyes!"

Xu Da snapped his eyes opened and glared at the two guards, who stared into the eyes of the intruder by reflex .

"Be my slaves!"

The two guards felt a sharp pain in their brain and stumbled down on the ground from the dizziness . After the pain subsided, a new memory was injected into their mind . They had a feeling that they had to obey the man in front of them .

"… yes, master . "

"… I understand, master . "

Both of them kowtowed on the ground with their forehead hitting the rough floor . The [Eyes of Domination] was at work .

Xu Da harrumphed while he looked down on these people . Then he straddled into the tent .

Upon opening the curtain of the tent to see the interior inside, the sharp blade of a crescent halberd was swung in a half moon circle and went through the neck of Xu Da .

*Shua*

Xu Da's neck flung into the air . It dropped and rolled on the floor of the tent .

Inside the tent, Lu Bu glared at Xu Da's dead body as he emitted out his killing intent .

'Idiot a.s.sa.s.sin . He can't even hold back his killing intent, and yet he entered my tent through the front . He's just asking for death . Humph!'

Lu Bu had detected Xu Da and Zhang Ji's presence since their arrival . He did not want to bother dealing with the two at first . But noticing that Xu Da looked down on himself and the guards at the front, Lu Bu also could not help but get angry .

Confirmed that Xu Da was deader than dead, he turned around to rest in the tent without caring about the corpse .

"Ow, ow, ow . Dammit, Lu Bu! I've come here to talk, not to fight you! You idiot piece of s.h.i.+t!"

Lu Bu paused his step and turned around in shock . The headless body of Xu Da stood up and walked toward the head on the ground . It picked up the head and put it back on the b.l.o.o.d.y neck .

"Excuse me for entering your camp without a reservation, but could you look into my eyes for a second?"

"What the f.o.o.k are you!?"

Lu Bu ignored Xu Da's words and swung his halberd at him again .

Xu Da leaped backward and rolled on the ground . The halberd stuck on the floor where Xu Da was standing a moment ago .

Lu Bu dashed forward, not letting the unknown a.s.sa.s.sin to escape . He locked his eyes with Xu Da for a moment .

"Listen to me! Idiot!"

The sharp pain pierced the brain of Lu Bu . He dropped his halberd and stumbled back two steps . When he raised his eyes to look at Xu Da again, his att.i.tude changed .

"What do you want?"

Seeing that his skill was working, Xu Da sighed in relief .

"For the love of G.o.d, I've come in peace . Take a seat, then we'll talk . "

…

Xu Da was a careful man . He did not command Lu Bu to "Be his slave" for a reason . All of the affected targets always retained their memories after they were mind-controlled . If Xu Da forced Lu Bu's hands into killing Ding Yuan against his will, the plan would backfire after the effective time of the skill expired .

In order to make Lu Bu betray Ding Yuan and serve Dong Zhuo, he could not force him into making the decision, but tempt him with gifts and other benefits as in the history . They had redhare horses with them and Dong Zhuo would soon take Luo Yang under his control . There was no reason for Lu Bu to refuse their offer in this timeline .

Most importantly, Xu Da had to brainwash him with this skill 5 more times to ensure that he could have become his slave permanently .

…

Both Lu Bu and Xu Da took a seat in the tent . Afterward, Xu Da pa.s.sed a message scroll written by Li Ru to Lu Bu .

"I've brought a message from Lord Dong Zhuo . He saw talents in you but you are serving the wrong lord! If you continue to stay here, there will be no future for you but a country b.u.mpkin! Join Dong Zhuo with me, and you will be bestowed with status, money, women, and glory!"

The eyes of Lu Bu still glared at Xu Da in hostility . If it was not for the effect of Xu Da's skill, Lu Bu would have killed him the second time already . His killing intent enveloped the entire tent, which terrified Xu Da . Thanked to the skill effect, Xu Da managed to convince himself to calm down and continue the negotiation .

"Go ahead . Read the scroll . "

The effect of the mind control skill had not expired yet . Everything that Xu Da had ordered, Lu Bu would follow his command .

"Fine . "

Lu Bu took up the scroll to read .

"My apologies for sending my subordinate to you . My name is Li Ru, the aide of Dong Zhuo of Tianshui . Our Lord has taken interest in your abilities in commanding troops, so we would like to invite you to join our army . "

"As a compensation, we will give you the best breed of warhorse that we have to you . Like the old saying, horses define generals . A good general deserves the best horse . "

"We will also give you the position of the grand commander of our army and 20,000 taels of gold if you are willing to move in with your family as well . We also don't mind if you bring in your private troops . We promise that we will provide them with our best armors and weapons to your men too . "

"I have sent my troops to Jinyang just in case you want to accept our proposal, so we can escort you and your men back to our Lord . I hope that you will not let this opportunity pa.s.s by . "

Finished reading the scroll, Lu Bu tossed it into the small lamppost nearby . It caught fire and burned into ashes in a few seconds .

"Well, did you finish?"

"Yes . "

"Very good . Escort me and my friend out of this camp, then I'll deliver a gift to you tomorrow morning . Remember, we are your friends, not enemies . "

"Hmm . Alright . "

…

…

One hour later .

Lu Bu had already sent back Xu Da and Zhang Ji outside the camp and returned to his tent . The moment the effect duration of the mind-controlling skill wore off, Lu Bu slammed his fist on his table in the private tent .

The sense of frustration, humiliation, and anger mixed with each other . Being forced into doing something against his will was not a pleasant feeling for him .

It was fortunate that no one was harmed tonight . Or else, he might regret his decision forever .

"That sc.u.m wants me to join him!? Ridiculous! Who the h.e.l.l do you think I am!? Do you think I'm a fool!?"

While Lu Bu was venting his anger by cursing Xu Da randomly, his guards walked in to report .

"My lord, Sir Li Feihong has come to visit you . He said that he has an urgent report . "

Lu Bu was surprised . It was unusual for Li Feihong to visit him in this hour . Furthermore, it was an urgent request for an audience . Lu Bu waved his hand and gestured the guard to let him in .

On the contrary of his usual manner, Li Feihong straddled into the tent with a determined expression . Lu Bu grinned from seeing the changed .

"What's wrong, Feihong? You look different today . Or should I say, you look manlier today . "

Li Feihong cringed by the mocking jest of his boss, but he did not mind it . He had an important matter to report to Lu Bu right now .

"My Lord, I have a serious matter to consult with you . Please drop the joke for now and listen to me . "

"Ho? Go ahead . Speak!"

"I believe Dong Zhuo sent his men here to recruit you . They should have contacted you today already . Am I right?"

Li Feihong made a rough guess . After the talk with Tong, he simulated the current situation . If he were in Dong Zhuo messenger's shoes, he would have made a contact with Lu Bu as soon as possible to not piquing any suspicious from Ding Yuan . The best time to do so was tonight .

"Impressive . They indeed came . Both of them left about an hour ago . "

"I see . If I guess correctly, they should have gifted you with a special horse or something . Have they given you anything yet?"

"No, they said that they will deliver it to me tomorrow morning . And what's with the special horse?"

"It's a special breed horse . I think it is called Red Hare . My Lord, I have a plan in my mind . But first, I need to give you my confession . It will be faster if I show you this . "

Li Feihong extended his hand to the side, and a light circular portal opened from the nothingness . Blue light shone from the oval-shaped gate . At the center of the gate, which was not covered by the blue light, a sunny gra.s.sland was shown .

Lu Bu stared at the gate and Li Feihong with a flabbergasted look .

"Feihong, are you a sorcerer?"

Li Feihong chuckled while he shook his head .

"No, I'm just a sinner with a cheat skill . Follow me, my lord . I'll tell you about my plan inside the gate . "

Li Feihong proceeded toward the gate and disappeared after he crossed it . Lu Bu was still dumbstruck by the sudden turn of events . He managed to regain his sense after Li Feihong disappeared into the gate .

"Fine . I'll believe in you . "

Thus, Lu Bu entered the private world of Li Feihong .

Lu Bu was shocked again after he had entered the private world . It was night time before he came here . However, the sky in this world was bright, yet there was no sun!

"Feihong, where are we?"

"This is my private realm . The secret that I hid from you . I'm sorry that I have to bring you in here . It will be faster if I show you my abilities . "

Li Feihong snapped his fingers .
