Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1151: Chapter 1107: Worlds Apart

Ma Chao turned around and was stunned upon seeing this scene, his body trembling constantly, ”You’re seeking death!”

The power that Ma Chao unleashed had already surpassed his previous peak. Without even looking at who attacked, he mustered all his strength to launch an attack on the opponent.

In that instant, the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry following behind Lyu Bu only saw an endless golden light crashing towards them, but Lyu Bu blocked all the attacks.

”Damn you, Hu people!” Lyu Bu said coldly, looking at Ma Chao, swinging backhandedly to knock Ma Chao away before preparing to leave on horseback.

”Lyu Bu!” After being knocked back with a move, Ma Chao’s eyes were bloodshot, his hatred for Lyu Bu almost reaching an unerasable level akin to the Three Rivers and Five Lakes. Those people were his trusted aides who had followed him through the line of death, only to die under Lyu Bu’s halberd just like that.

”Clang!” Lyu Bu turned his horse around without even looking back. As Ma Chao launched an attack, he casually raised his Sky Piercer, sending Ma Chao flying.

While exterminating the Hu people, Lyu Bu mainly relied on the millennia-old belief, a realm where he casually merged with heaven and earth, his every move carrying great power.

Therefore, for the current Ma Chao, Lyu Bu merely made a casual strike, and the absolute power of this frontal attack made Ma Chao understand what it meant to be the best in the world.

With just one blow, Ma Chao spat blood and was sent flying backward, and Lyu Bu seemed to remember something, turning his horse and looking at Ma Chao, his golden pupils incredibly cold, ”If you don’t want to die, stay away from me!”

At this moment, Lyu Bu had already sensed the Qiang and Hu blood flowing in Ma Chao’s body; the millennia-old belief wouldn’t care if Ma Chao was Pro-Han or not. Hu people were the enemy. The stronger they were, the more threatening. Eliminating all threats was the guiding principle of the millennia-old belief.

Thus, Lyu Bu harbored an extremely severe killing intent towards Ma Chao, even to the point where the millennia-old belief began urging Lyu Bu to eliminate Ma Chao.

However, Lyu Bu admired this kid Ma Chao. The other’s former lone wolf gaze had already developed the presence of a Wolf King amidst his subordinates’ recognition, so Lyu Bu didn’t want to make a move. He had his pride, confident that in terms of will, he wouldn’t be oppressed by anyone or anything.

After speaking, Lyu Bu turned and left. Now, staying away from Ma Chao was beneficial for both sides. As for the slain Qiang and Hu, Lyu Bu didn’t feel there was any wrongdoing. What’s done is done.

Lyu Bu left indifferently, not caring about the now frenzied Ma Chao, his near-contemptuous and indifferent actions completely trampling on Ma Chao’s dignity, especially after killing the comrades Ma Chao valued.

”Ah!” Ma Chao howled in fury like a wounded beast, mobilizing all his Inner Qi at full speed, disregarding the damage to his meridians and body, releasing it all out.

A trace of coldness appeared on Lyu Bu’s face; Ma Chao was as reckless as last time, at least that’s how Lyu Bu saw it.

After all, having already reached the Ultimate Inner Qi Manifestation, Ma Chao, bursting with full force, instantly suppressed Lyu Bu, who was exerting only about thirty percent of his strength, putting Lyu Bu in a hard-pressed situation.

The reason was simple: Lyu Bu used most of his strength to suppress the agitation of the millennia-old belief. Otherwise, with just one strike, Ma Chao would be beheaded.

The frantic Ma Chao, after suppressing Lyu Bu with his outburst, thrust his spear at the other’s throat.

Already struggling due to suppressing the millennia-old belief, Lyu Bu could barely dodge this strike and was forced to try his best to evade, resulting in Ma Chao’s long spear leaving a not-so-shallow wound on his neck, with blood streaming out instantly.

In the next moment, Lyu Bu’s entire demeanor turned icy cold. Before Ma Chao could shout ”Prepare to die,” the tip of Lyu Bu’s halberd swept upward, hitting Ma Chao at a speed unimaginable, although for some reason Ma Chao felt it paused momentarily just before cutting him.

It was precisely because of that moment that Ma Chao avoided a fatal disaster. However, even so, a massive gash was left between his chest and abdomen, with all the ribs in the path of the halberd’s tip breaking.

”How can this be!” Ma Chao half-knelt on the snowy ground, blood gushing out uncontrollably, struggling to lift his head to look at Lyu Bu opposite, and not knowing if it was an illusion or something else, he unexpectedly saw a trace of gratification on Lyu Bu’s face.

But it should have been a hallucination before death. Ma Chao slowly closed his eyes, [Am I going to die just like this? Such a pity, I haven’t claimed the title of the best in the world, Bofu, I really want to fight you, Lyu Bu, if there is a next life, I must defeat you...]

As Ma Chao fell at that moment, Lyu Bu approached, the killing intent in his eyes looming. But when he reached Ma Chao, Lyu Bu stopped, raising his left hand and tossing a mass of golden Inner Qi onto Ma Chao’s body.

Then, with his killing intent unabated, he turned and left. Lyu Bu, when on guard, would never tolerate being manipulated by external forces. That’s how it was, having nothing to do with Ma Chao.

Lyu Bu turned and left, and none of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry dared to ask why he saved Ma Chao; they just turned and left with Lyu Bu, leaving the solitary Lifeisha standing there crying towards the sky.

It was also because Lifeisha was nearby; otherwise, when Pang De arrived, there would probably have been nothing left but a puddle of bloodstains here, as there were many wild wolves during this period, and Ma Chao, with no resistance and the scent of blood all over, was a feast for the wolves struggling to survive the winter.

”Quickly, support the Junior General; others go notify General Ma!” Pang De hurriedly ordered people to lift Ma Chao onto a stretcher.

When Pang De brought Ma Chao back, General Ma Teng, upon learning of the situation, was almost driven mad with worry. Ma Chao himself was an extraordinary martial artist, and being beaten to this state, with Lyu Bu just having passed by, need one think more?

Naturally, Ma Teng was furious and immediately went to find Cao Ren, demanding Cao Ren accompany him to question Lyu Bu for an explanation. At this moment, Ma Teng was still relatively rational, after all, Ma Chao being beaten until he was unrecognizable wasn’t the first time, and with the Inner Qi Separation, it wasn’t a big deal. Demanding an explanation from Lyu Bu was just a father’s anger.

The outcome, however, was that several days had passed, yet Ma Chao still hadn’t awakened. Ma Teng became incredibly irate and directly gathered troops to find Cao Ren, ready to risk his life against Lyu Bu!

If it were simply that Lyu Bu had beaten Ma Chao half to death, and Ma Chao started causing trouble again the next day, Ma Teng wouldn’t be this angry. After all, he knew his son’s disposition; last time he heard about Ma Chao provoking Lyu Bu, resulting in being chased across half of the Central Plains.

When he flew back, he was swollen but still lively. Ma Teng wouldn’t care about such matters and might even have Ma Chao apologize after he recovered. But now, Ma Chao hadn’t awoken for several days!

This was Inner Qi Manifestation, something that had exceeded Ma Teng’s tolerance limit. Usually, when his son came back bruised and battered from fights, Ma Teng might have beaten his son too, but now, with his son beaten into a vegetative state, how could he not demand a martial performance!(To be continued.
