Battle Royale of the Sinners

Chapter 499 - Lu Bu’s Ignorance

While the chaos was ongoing, Lu Bu, who was still carrying Zhang Min, noticed the expanding red lines on Zhang Min’s skin.

Her body began to crack as if she would shatter like glasses at any moment.

Lu Bu frowned. He brought Zhang Min on the ground, so he could use his angelic power to heal her first.

He summoned all 7 souls and used every buffing abilities he had learned.

"Come on, heal!"

The souls place their hands on Zhang Min’s body as they injected their life force. Lu Bu’s lifespan was decreasing at a rapid rate, and Zhang Min’s complexion got better.

However...

*PU*

Blood veins burst and the red lines reappeared. The injuries relapsed within a few seconds.

’Was that a coincidence? She should be in the middle of a relapsing session.’

As Lu Bu had experienced a few slight soul injuries in the past, he understood how these wounds reappeared on Zhang Min’s body. Since the damaged souls always influenced the host’s physical body, these wounds would continue to appear as long as the souls had not been treated.

The injuries could reemerge randomly. Sometimes, it relapsed once or twice a day. In the past, when Lu Bu’s luck was bad, the injuries reappeared every minute.

Lu Bu thought that Zhang Min’s relapse might be coincident, so he continued transferring his lifespan into her souls.

The red lines faded.

*PU*

Again, Zhang Min’s wounds reemerged. She woke up from the pain and coughed a mouthful of blood. Her right hand disconnected with her right arm and disintegrated into glittering dust.

Lu Bu widened his eyes. For the first time, he panicked.

’What do I do to save her!? At this rate, she will die!’

He wanted to save Tong’s daughter, but he ran out of ideas.

A female voice rang in Lu Bu’s head. It was Lilim’s voice.

"Who?" Lu Bu was not familiar with Lilim.

Lu Bu rejoiced. He did not care who this voice owner was. As long as she could save Zhang Min, he did not mind it, "Yes. Tell me how!"

"What do you want, then? My lifespan?"

"That’s it?"

"Only a vow? That’s it?" Lu Bu frowned in disbelief, "Sure."

"That’s simple... [I swear allegiance to you.]"

*RUMBLE*

As soon as Lu Bu finished his words, the ground below him shook. Semi-transparent chains emerged from the ground and entered his body.

A tattoo appeared on Lu Bu’s back. It was Lilim’s insignia, which she had acquired when she had awakened the 10th wing.

The insignia was a diamond crest with a demoness picture, who was sitting cross-leg on a pile of snakes.

Upon the completion of the crest, Lu Bu could locate Lilim’s existence with his sixth sense. He turned toward Lilim’s direction in astonishment.

"What’s this?"

"... I did what you asked me to. Now, heal her."

"... Okay."

Above Ye city, two young angels ignored all potential threats from the local immortals and landed on a rooftop of a tall building.

A beautiful male angel and a rough 4-wing angel gazed at the city scenery, admiring the view of the developed town.

"Otherworlders are really something. Our old Jianye can’t compare to this town," Lu Xun sighed, impressed with the number of neatly arranged buildings and crowded road.

Lu Meng looked around and counted the people on the street below them. He stopped when it went over 1,000.

"Is this a business district? How many people are there?"

Lu Xun had a wry smile on his face, "This should a common district or a peasant area. The real business district should be the glittering buildings over there."

Lu Meng turned toward the direction where Lu Xun was pointing. Lines of 4-5 story buildings stood tall. Although their outward appearance looked like they were wooden buildings, Lu Meng and Lu Xun could notice the brick walls, which they rarely used to build houses.

They were taught that bricks were usually used for defensive walls as they were difficult to procure, and they often fell from the arranged wall. However, they were sturdier than the ordinary city wall, which was made from mud. This was the first time seeing bricks being used for tall buildings.

None of them understood the concept of concrete or cement, which glued these bricks together.

"Bricks? Won’t the buildings collapse? Those bricks are slippery and they won’t be a good material for tall buildings."

"Then, how are you going to explain those?"

"..."

It baffled Lu Meng how the civilians managed to construct those buildings using bricks.

As the two lingered above Ye city flying space, sightseeing in leisure, five angels and one demoness surrounded them.

Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Cao Ren were staying in Ye city after Lu Zhi and Dong Bai had ordered Cao Cao in the clan chat. Now, they spread their wings, showing off the strength of Cao Cao’s faction.

Aside from Dian Wei, the other four generals each had four wings. On the other hand, six white wings behind Dian Wei’s back hinted that he worked harder than everyone.

As for the sole demoness, it was Dong Bai.

Similar to Dian Wei, through her hard work and the assist of this world’s laws and system, Dong Bai had obtained six black wings, revealing to the world for the first time that she was not a pushover.

The golden robes and the empress crown glittered in the sunlight. Her shining dresses stunned Lu Xun, Lu Meng, and the innocent civilians who noticed the commotion in the sky.

"I-Immortals!"

"Gods! They’re gods!"

The crowd in the city looked up and noticed them. They knelt and kowtowed without anyone forcing them.

Dong Bai glared at Lu Xun and Lu Meng, "Slaves of Sun Ce. Surrender now, or we’ll slaughter your nine generations!"

Lu Xun and Lu Meng glanced at each other as many things went out of Zhou Yu’s calculation. None of them had expected that more six-wing immortals were hiding in Tong’s ranks other than Li Feihong, Diaochan, and Lu Bu.

With Dian Wei and Dong Bai’s threat, no scheme could overcome their absolute strength.

Lu Xun laughed as he bowed to Dong Bai, "Our purpose here is to submit to you, your majesty. We’ve abandoned Sun Ce, and we would like to work for you."

Lu Meng nodded. He also cupped his fist and bowed, "Zhou Yu and Sun Ce ordered us to attack Luoyang, but we fly here to report this to you."

Dong Bai raised her eyebrows in doubt. She reread the chat log to make sure.

Dong Bai did not know if it was a coincidence or the two young angels were sincere. Zhang Liao’s report aligned with their confession, which gave Lu Meng and Lu Xun some credibility.

"Other than that, what did Zhou Yu and Sun Ce order the others?"

"Sun Fang and Ling Tong are heading northwest to kill Ding Yuan. Huang Zu is going back to Jing Province to coax Liu Biao’s sons not to surrender to his majesty. Chen Wu and Song Qian are heading north to protect Zhen Yi and Wang Yun."

Dong Bai and other Cao Cao’s generals squinted their eyes, "So, Zhen Yi and Wang Yun are working with Sun Ce?"

"Correct. Zhen Yi has been sheltering us for a few years. As for Wang Yun, he suddenly showed up in Zhongshan to persuade Zhen Yi to overthrow his majesty’s regime."

"Oh? Interesting," Dong Bai widened her eyes, "Good. Dian Wei, tied them up. You two, you’d better be telling me the truth, or your head will roll."

Cao Cao’s officers tied Lu Xun and Lu Meng. Afterward, Dong Bai brought them back to the government hall, planning to let these two men retelling their stories before Lu Zhi and other strategists.

.

The moment Dong Bai and all Cao Cao’s elites returned to the government hall, where Zhuge Liang, Cao Cao, Te Langpu, Lu Zhi, and others were waiting, Lu Bu also returned with Zhang Min, who was panting in exhaustion.

"Ah, you’re finally back. How come you’re slower than these guys?"

Dong Bai glared at Lu Bu, who was still carrying Tong’s daughter. It was odd that a 7-wing angel reached Ye city later than Lu Meng and Lu Xun, who had only 4 wings. Moreover, the latter two should have gotten out of Julu later than Lu Bu.

Currently, Lu Bu was half-naked, but he still had his pants and legging armor on.

Dong Bai noticed that Lu Bu’s condition was odd. She glanced at Zhang Min, who was still being princess-carried.

As soon as Dong Bai saw Zhang Min’s condition and her remaining clothes, she yelled at Lu Bu, "What the fuck did you do to her!?"

Lu Bu scoffed, "Saved her life."

"And why is she in her underwear and your armor!?"

Zhang Min was only wearing Lu Bu’s chest plate and her undergarments. Her clothes were nowhere to be seen.

Most importantly, a trail of blood flowed down on her thighs, and the source came from her crotch area.

It was not hard to tell that Zhang Min’s purity might have been soiled!

Lu Bu clicked his tongue, "Her clothes got soaked with her blood! I have to tear them off since they were dirty. Her soul injuries worsened, so I have to heal her!"

"Soul injuries can only be cured by cultivating, you fool!" Dong Bai observed Zhang Min’s skin. The latter did not have any physical wound other than the bloody crotch, which was more unusual.

Normally, soul injuries would break the host’s physical body and create red lines on the injured places. However, no damage appeared on Zhang Min’s physical body.

Something fishy was going on.

"What did you do to heal her?" Dong Bai probed as she had a bad feeling about this development.

"Dual-cultivation."

*Shank*

Dong Bai pulled a long dadao from Xiahou Dun’s back and pointed at Lu Bu’s neck, "You’re under arrest for treason and immoral conduct to the royalties. Surrender, or I’ll kill you and your entire family."

Lu Bu gently put Zhang Min down, "I’m busy. I need to save my father, and I don’t have the time to play with you."

Without bothering with Dong Bai’s threat, Lu Bu spread his wings and flew away.

Friday wanted to kill Lu Bu for ruining Zhang Min’s purity, but the latter’s life took priority. She rushed to Zhang Min’s side to examine her condition.

"... Step-mother, I’m sorry," Zhang Min cried, "I couldn’t protect myself."

Dong Bai hugged Zhang Min, "It wasn’t your fault! It’s Sun Ce and Lu Bu’s fault!"

Zhang Min sobbed as she buried her face into Dong Bai’s bosom.

Dong Bai grounded her teeth as she turned to Lu Xun, Lu Meng, and Cao Ren’s crews, "Bring them to the throne room first. I’m not in the mood to judge your fate just yet."

The empress carried Hua Shi’s daughter to the inner palace as this matter was delicate. Zhang Min’s body, soul, and mental were unstable.
