New Three Kingdoms Tales: Starting as the expressionless Liu Bei

Liu Bei stood with his hands behind his back, his expressionless face still showing no emotion.

But any normal person could feel the gloomy oppressive aura emanating from him, and the chilling killing intent that almost overflowed from his eyes.

quack!

He looked around and saw Sun Qian's corpse, the black bear with its belly cut open, the cave riddled with holes, and the aura of a 50,000-man enemy that Guan Yu had not yet managed to conceal.

In just a moment, he guessed almost everything that had happened here.

It must have been Guan Yu who killed Sun Qian and took away the power within him, right?

His gaze was chillingly cold as he stared directly at Guan Yu and said in a deep voice:

"Second brother. Oh no, should I call you the Five Spirit King?"

When did Liu Bei discover my true identity? Oh no, does that mean I'm going to be nipped in the bud?

The next moment, the explanation from Heaven sent a chill down Guan Yu's spine:

"He didn't see through your disguise as the Five Spirit Kings. He was just bluffing you. You smug, arrogant fool!"

Upon hearing this, Guan Yu quickly composed himself, suppressing his panic and striving to return to normal.

But in that brief moment of change in his expression, Liu Bei had already read the answer from his face.

Guan Yu is the Five Spirit King. However, he has not yet obtained his full power and is currently only in his "infant form".

But fate is secretly supporting Guan Yu, intending to raise him to adulthood and then turn him against them.

The truth has come to light.

Without any hesitation, Liu Bei slowly raised his hands.

As a dragon's roar, like that of an ancestral dragon, resounded in the cave, a powerful and eerie aura gathered in his palm, gradually revealing a black and white phantom of a light sword.

His gaze was deep and unfathomable, his voice so soft it was almost inaudible, yet every word sent chills down one's spine:

"The King of the Five Spirits will surely perish with the sword."

Guan Yu snorted coldly, his eternally burning golden eyes suddenly blazing, his aura poised to erupt, and he retorted with utter disdain:

"Liu Bei! You think I'm afraid of you? Today I'll fight you to the death!"

Both sides were gathering their strength. But fate was sending a frantic warning through Guan Yu's mind:

"Guan Yu! Run! If you're going to fight, fight someone else, never confront Liu Bei head-on!"

Guan Yu laughed heartily, gripping his Green Dragon Crescent Blade tightly in his right hand and slowly stroking his beard with his left. His arrogant aura was almost tangible, making him look like a demon crawling out of hell.

With an arrogant expression, he declared loudly, "What a joke! Do you think I, Guan Yu, am one to bully the weak and fear the strong? If I only pick on the easy targets, I might as well go home and sleep!"

He paused, then burst into laughter: "What's more, I possess eternally burning golden eyes! I am immortal! No one can defeat me!"

"The battle will never end until the last enemy falls!"

After saying that, he laughed heartily and slowly urged the cricket to greatly enhance its own defense.

He wanted to meet Liu Bei's attack head-on and prove to Heaven that Liu Bei was not invincible.

Meanwhile, Liu Bei was secretly suppressing a fit of laughter.

Don't laugh, don't laugh, wait another forty seconds, and then you can declare victory.

He slowly activated his power technique, warming up, triple strike, and power enhancement, layering them up to frantically strengthen his attack.

The light suddenly burst forth, almost blinding people to look directly at it.

The black and white light sword in Liu Bei's hand became increasingly dazzling, and even the area around the sword began to pulsate with a blazing red light like the sun, with a faint storm flowing around the blade.

Guan Yu had already taken the lead and maximized his defense. With vines entwined in his left hand and water bubbles covering his right, his golden eyes suddenly lit up as he unleashed a killing move that combined water, grass, and metal elements: the Vajra Thunder Shield.

Liu Bei's lightsaber was also fully enhanced at this moment. The blade was so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it.

He slowly raised his lightsaber, pointed it at Guan Yu, and said coldly:

"Guan Yu, how dare you! You murdered innocent civilians and then killed Sun Qian to seize power. Today I will kill you right here. If you kneel down and beg for mercy, I might spare your life."

Guan Yu threw his head back and laughed, his face full of disdain:

"Am I, Guan Yu, a coward who fears death? If I wanted to escape, I would have left under the cover of night while you were stacking your buffs. Why would I still be here? Enough nonsense, come on!"

Liu Bei frowned almost imperceptibly, raised his sword high, and chanted a long, drawn-out prayer:

"Kendo Killing Move, Blazing Sun Storm Sword!"

Just then, a desperate shout came from the cave entrance above.

Zhang Fei had arrived unnoticed and was now peering into the cave entrance, roaring at Guan Yu:

"Second brother! Get out of the way! Don't confront eldest brother head-on!"

A large amethyst shield had been formed in front of Guan Yu, with purple arcs of electricity crackling wildly on its surface.

He braced his hands tightly behind the shield and roared at the top of his lungs, "I'll do it anyway!"

The lightsaber crashed down. The power of a hundred thousand men slammed into Guan Yu's shield without reservation.

boom!!!

The entire mountain was cleaved apart by Liu Bei's sword.

Even after the power of the First Emperor had faded, his remaining influence still resonated with people from other regions.

The earth trembled violently, and terrifying aftershocks spread in all directions, reaching hundreds of miles away.

The birds were startled and took flight in droves.

Some weaker wandering spirits didn't even have time to react before their souls were shattered by the residual force of the attack.

Those powerful and bizarre creatures were also affected to varying degrees, their faces filled with fear as they all looked in the same direction.

"Such an aura, how is this possible? Could it be that the First Emperor has been resurrected?"

"Such powerful combat energy! Even the former Overlord probably couldn't match this momentum!"

"Who is that person? Could he be a newly promoted Venerable?"

They were filled with curiosity, but none of them dared to approach the ruins.

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated. Guan Yu's body had shattered into a bloody mist, mingling with the dust as it drifted into the sky.

He is dead.

Zhang Fei was so shaken by the aftershocks of the attack that his internal organs were almost completely shattered, and mouthfuls of blood gushed from his mouth.

But he didn't collapse immediately. The strange creature has an extremely strong self-healing ability; as long as it has a breath left, even if its organs are completely destroyed, it can slowly recover while clinging to life.

He stared blankly at everything before him, then suddenly grinned and squeezed out a sentence from his throat:

"Second brother, you're a real stubborn bastard."

As soon as he finished speaking, he spat out a mouthful of black blood and his body slowly fell backward.

External injuries can heal on their own, but internal injuries cannot.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were linked by a soul chain; if Guan Yu died, Zhang Fei would also perish.

From then on, both Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, two great menaces, died at the hands of Liu Bei.

Liu Bei stood still, his expression calm as ever.

The combined pressure of being able to defeat 50,000 men and being able to defeat 10,000 men made it so that he could barely keep his mouth shut and almost broke down on the spot.

Fortunately, Liu Bei was prepared and quickly activated the expressionless cricket, which forcefully suppressed the surging laughter.

He raised his finger to the sky, his tone calm and collected: "It's fate. I've won. You've lost."

He gazed at the azure sky above him, a half-smile on his face, as if waiting for an answer.

After an unknown amount of time, a completely emotionless voice finally descended from the sky:

"Why did you win? Don't forget, I saved my game before the Battle of Meijiu River. As long as I play Guan Yu's song, everything will go back to that time, and you will still be that puppet who can defeat 20,000 men."

Liu Bei shook his head and said softly, "Your time travel isn't without its weaknesses. You can only return to the most recent save point. And the most recent save point was just now."

A long silence reigned in the heavens before a soft sigh finally escaped: "I lost. The 'Fool' behind you actually managed to scheme to this extent. Interesting. I'll remember this grudge."

As soon as he finished speaking, an irresistible and eerie force descended from the sky, engulfing the entire world.

Everyone heard that familiar melody.

The Song of Guan Yu.

Liu Bei gazed at the sky, expressionless, took out a piece of paper that had been peeking out from his sleeve, tilted his head back, and swallowed it.

Time begins to rewind.
