Chapter 292

This was simply not taking him, the alliance leader, seriously at all, right?

"Alliance Leader Lord Yuan!"

At this time, Sun Sun Jian also stood up and bowed: "My battle wounds have recurred, and I can no longer continue to fight, so I will take my leave!"

Saying this, Sun Sun Jian prepared to leave directly.

"Wait!"

At this time, Lord Yuan Shu spoke to stop him: "Sun Sun Jian, you are in such a hurry to leave, I'm afraid it's not because of any recurring battle wounds, but because of the Imperial Jade Seal, right?"

"What?"

The warlords were shocked and looked at Lord Yuan Shu and Sun Sun Jian.

Lord Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes and looked at Sun Sun Jian.

Sun Sun Jian heard this, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, then he feigned ignorance and looked angrily at Lord Yuan Shu: "Lord Yuan Gonglu, what Imperial Jade Seal? I don't know what you are talking about! Farewell!"

Saying this, Sun Sun Jian stepped out and walked toward the outside of the hall.

"Men!!"

Lord Yuan Shao and Lord Yuan Shu saw this, immediately threw the wine bowls in their hands, stood up, and roared.

"Clack, clack, clack!"

The next moment, a large number of armored soldiers emerged from all around the hall, surrounding the entire hall.

Many of the soldiers' weapons were pointed at Sun Sun Jian.

The warlords saw this and were shocked.

What is this situation?

You, Lord Yuan Shao and Lord Yuan Shu, actually ambushed so many armored soldiers in secret. What are you trying to do?

Are you trying to wipe out all of us warlords in one go?

For a time, the warlords were filled with resentment and fear toward the Lord Yuan brothers.

Lord Yuan Shao couldn't care about these people for the time being, but stared at Sun Sun Jian with burning eyes: "Sun Sun Jian! I think you'd better hand over the Imperial Jade Seal! Such a thing is not something you can covet. It should be held by me, the alliance leader, for the time being. After the Son of Heaven is rescued, I will hand it over to the Son of Heaven;"

"Or are you saying, Sun Sun Jian, that you have a rebellious heart? Plotting something?"

"Fart!"

Sun Sun Jian heard this and immediately cursed: "I said it before, I didn't hide any Imperial Jade Seal. This is all just one-sided words from you Lord Yuan brothers!"

"I think you see that the campaign against Dong is over, and you want to take the opportunity to eliminate dissidents, right?"

"I haven't forgotten that Lord Yuan Shu cut off my grain supply to frame me, causing me heavy losses back then;"

"What? How long has it been since that happened? And you can't help yourself again?"

"Do you really think I, Sun Sun Jian, am easy to bully?"

"Men!"

Sun Sun Jian immediately roared.

"Clack, clack, clack!"

Immediately, a large number of armored soldiers rushed out from all around the hall again, surrounding the Lord Yuan brothers' armored soldiers.

There was also a portion of Sun Sun Jian's armored soldiers who broke through an opening, came to Sun Sun Jian's side, guarded him, and pointed their swords at the Lord Yuan brothers.

"You have guts! Get out of the way, otherwise don't blame us for being impolite!"

At this time, roars and the sound of weapons clashing came from outside the hall.

Soon, a group of armored soldiers broke through two layers of the encirclement, led by Xu Chu, rushed into the hall, and came to Su Xuan's side: "My Lord! This subordinate is late, please forgive me!"

"It's fine!"

Su Xuan waved his hand, then looked at Lord Yuan Shao and Lord Yuan Shu, and bowed: "Brother Benchu! Brother Gonglu! We are not interested in the Imperial Jade Seal or anything like that, so we won't get involved in these matters! You continue, we will take our leave first!"

Saying this, Su Xuan didn't care how Lord Yuan Shao and Lord Yuan Shu reacted, looked at Cao Cao and said: "Brother Mengde, do you want to leave together?"

"That's fine!"

Cao Cao nodded, also bowed to Lord Yuan Shao and Lord Yuan Shu, said goodbye, and left the hall under the protection of Xu Chu and the others.

Sun Sun Jian's side also didn't delay, and also left the hall under the protection of many armored soldiers.

Lord Yuan Shao and Lord Yuan Shu saw this and didn't dare to make a move.

Because, who knows if Sun Sun Jian would go crazy and take them away?

In terms of martial prowess, they were no match for Sun Sun Jian.

Lord Yuan Shao and Lord Yuan Shu only regretted not bringing their own fierce generals by their side.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so passive.

"Uh... Alliance Leader Lord Yuan, if there's nothing else, we will also take our leave!"

The other warlords saw Sun Sun Jian and the others leave, and looking at the Lord Yuan family's armored soldiers all around, they felt very unsafe, so they hurriedly said goodbye to Lord Yuan Shao and left one after another.

Not long after, in the entire hall, apart from the Lord Yuan family's armored soldiers, only Lord Yuan Shao and Lord Yuan Shu remained.

"Bang!"

Lord Yuan Shao saw this, and only then angrily overturned the table in front of him, roaring: "Good for you, Sun Sun Jian, you are completely not taking me, the alliance leader, seriously!"

"He actually had preparations early on. I think he definitely has a ghost in his heart! That Imperial Jade Seal must have been obtained by him!"

Lord Yuan Shu sneered: "Isn't this an obvious fact? This is what I heard from the spies I placed around Sun Sun Jian;"

"That spy also saw with his own eyes that Sun Sun Jian obtained the Imperial Jade Seal, could it be fake?"

"Now let's think about how to deal with Sun Sun Jian and take the Imperial Jade Seal back!"

"This thing must absolutely not fall into the hands of Sun Sun Jian and other warlords."

At this time, Lord Yuan Shu's fear and hatred for Sun Sun Jian reached its peak.

Of course, he had no objection to Sun Sun Jian taking the Imperial Jade Seal away today.

This was actually better.

Because, if Sun Sun Jian really took out the Imperial Jade Seal and left it today, it would be very difficult for it to fall into his hands, and it was more likely to fall into Lord Yuan Shao's hands.

This was not what Lord Yuan Shu wanted to see.

"Then what do you say we should do?"

Lord Yuan Shao didn't know Lord Yuan Shu's thoughts and asked angrily.

In fact, Lord Yuan Shao also really wanted this Imperial Jade Seal.

Not for anything else, but because he wanted to become the orthodox ruler of the world through this Imperial Jade Seal, to see if he could avoid the curse and backlash of the Great Han's destiny.

This backlash of destiny didn't seem to have any bad influence on him right now, but he was still a bit uneasy in his heart.

Someone had told him that the deaths of his father and uncle were related to the backlash of destiny.

Lord Yuan Shao didn't really believe this.

Because he knew better that his father died in an accident, and Lord Yuan Kui and the others were plotted to death by his own hands.

But not believing is one thing, being careful is always right.

Although he didn't understand the way of destiny and didn't fully believe in it, he couldn't really ignore it completely.

People must have a sense of awe!

Lord Yuan Shu heard this and replied immediately: "Send someone to send a message to Liu Biao of Yangzhou, and let him intercept and kill Sun Sun Jian!"

"Sun Sun Jian's territory in Changsha has already belonged to Su Xuan. After he leaves Luoyang, he can only return to his old home in Wu-Kuai!"

"That is Liu Biao's territory, and it is just right for him, a member of the Han royal clan, to take action!"

Lord Yuan Shao frowned slightly: "Wouldn't that mean the Imperial Jade Seal would fall into Liu Biao's hands?"

In that case, it would probably be even harder for him to obtain the Imperial Jade Seal.

In addition, he also didn't want this Imperial Jade Seal to fall into Lord Yuan Shu's hands.

"We can't just do nothing, right?"

Lord Yuan Shu rolled his eyes: "Even if it falls into Liu Biao's hands, it's better than falling into Sun Sun Jian's hands!"

"Liu Biao is just a piece of trash, I can easily deal with him;"

"But Sun Sun Jian is a fierce tiger;"

"Once he has the orthodox name by relying on the Imperial Jade Seal, combined with his martial prowess, it will become very troublesome!"

Of course, he said this with his mouth, but Lord Yuan Shu was actually planning to let Lord Yuan Shao take the lead in dealing with Sun Sun Jian.

When Sun Sun Jian suffered a disaster, he would step forward, or reveal the news that Lord Yuan Shao wanted to use Liu Biao to deal with Sun Sun Jian to Sun Sun Jian in advance.
