Su Xiaoxiao: "Goodness, Gabriel, you've really fallen."

Gabriel: "Just now finding out?"

Huang Rong: "【Red Packet】 Since you want to borrow it, I'll lend it to you. The cave heaven and points together — no need to trouble Miss Kanane anymore."

Hu Yifei: "Surprising, Miss Huang isn't jealous?"

Huang Rong: "Jealous? Can I even keep up? Besides, in our ancient times, a man having three wives and four concubines was perfectly normal."

Lu Bu: "Many thanks, Miss Huang!"

Asuna: "Big Sister Huang is truly magnanimous. If it were me, I'd have already smashed the vinegar jar."

Su Xiaoxiao: "Really? I remember in the original work, Kirito had plenty of female confidantes too, and you didn't do anything about it either."

Asuna: "

Xia Mai: "I remember now — Big Sister Asuna has another nickname: Greening Asuna!"

Asuna: "Greening Asuna? Who came up with that nickname? It slanders my reputation — I protest!"

Xia Mai: "Protest overruled! 【Mischievous grin】"

Miyamizu Mitsuha: "It's normal, after all. Sword Art Online is a harem anime."

Asuna: "Good thing Kirito and I don't know each other right now. Otherwise, wouldn't I have turned green too?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "No worries. You know Brother Taixuan now, so you can legitimately become one of the harem — you won't turn green."

Asuna: "Is there any difference?"

Xia Mai: "Seems like there's no difference. But at least it's legitimate."

Asuna: "That's exactly the kind of legitimacy I don't want!"

The world of the Three Kingdoms.

Lu Bu claimed the red packet, and a small teapot appeared in his hand.

Lady Yan saw it and was greatly astonished. She asked, "What is this?"

"This is the cave heaven," Lu Bu said with a smile. "Don't be fooled by it being just a small teapot — within it lies a space of several dozen li across. Use it to grow crops, and a single harvest can supply several million troops."

Several million troops.

Lady Yan listened, dumbstruck, and gazed at the teapot as though it were a treasure.

Lu Bu laughed freely: "Still, using a cave heaven to grow grain is a terrible waste. Better to grow spiritual herbs — we can exchange them for points and make ourselves immortal."

Lady Yan's expression grew solemn: "Husband, put it away quickly. You must not let anyone steal it."

"Don't worry, my Lady. Under heaven and earth, is there really anyone who could take this cave heaven from my hands?" Lu Bu didn't care in the slightest. He tucked the teapot into his robes. "I'll cultivate for a while first. Once I've made progress, I'll bring you along to cultivate together."

"Go ahead. I'll handle everything at home — you need not worry."

"Go ahead. I'll handle everything at home — you need not worry."

Lu Bu nodded, found a quiet room, and began his closed-door cultivation.

The martial arts of the world of the Romance were a path of bodily training that increased strength — not any path of true qi or blood-and-qi — and required no cross-legged circulation of breath.

Normally, Lu Bu trained his martial arts in the courtyard and had no need for a quiet room.

Therefore, this quiet room was not a place specifically for closed-door cultivation, merely a secluded guest room.

But for Lu Bu, it was enough.

Half a day later, a powerful aura rose within the Lu residence, shooting straight into the heavens and scattering the clouds.

Lady Yan felt a wave of pressure and looked toward the direction of Lu Bu's cultivation, her eyes bright with joy: "Has my husband succeeded?!"

With a look of joy, she hurried over and arrived outside the quiet room, where she saw Lu Bu stride out with great steps.

Seeing Lady Yan, his face beamed: "My Lady, I've succeeded in my cultivation. From today, there is no longer a match for me under heaven!"

"Congratulations, Husband, on the great completion of your divine art." Lady Yan was overjoyed and offered repeated felicitations.

In ancient times, husband and wife were one — if one flourished, both flourished; if one suffered, both suffered.

Lu Bu's rise meant she would rise with him.

"Come, my Lady, let's have a drink, then head to the capital," Lu Bu's expression hardened. "I recall that ten days ago, that old thief Dong Zhuo had already set out for the capital."

"Good."

Lady Yan nodded and ordered the servants below to prepare a fine spread of wine and dishes.

At the wine table, Lu Bu drank freely and heartily, feeling that the more he drank the better his spirits became — truly a superman who could down a thousand cups without getting drunk.

And indeed, so it was.

With a true-qi realm cultivation base, mortal wine truly could not make Lu Bu drunk.

As he drank, Lu Bu began planning his next moves, feeling his mind grow extraordinarily sharp.

Martial cultivation was itself a form of evolution — the stronger the martial path, the higher the wisdom.

Even though Lu Bu had originally been a man of single-track mind, now he too had become brimming with stratagems.

After thinking for a while, Lu Bu laughed freely: "My strength is unrivaled under heaven — I need no schemes at all. Once I lead the Bingzhou Wolf Riders and the Camp of the Buried into the capital, everything will be settled."

Once I lead the Bingzhou Wolf Riders and the Camp of the Buried into the capital, everything will be settled.

The next day.
