Lu Bu nodded affirmatively, "I have known Boyuan for seven or eight years. He purchases warhorses, furs, and other materials from me;"

"I obtain a large amount of money, fine military equipment, useful commodities, and so on;"

"It can be considered mutually beneficial!"

"In addition, we are very frank with each other, and there is no mutual scheming. Although Boyuan is very smart, he has always been extremely sincere to me. Even when I faced choices and difficulties, he guided and helped me many times!"

"Just like this time when I was plotted against by Wang Yun, he also gave me good advice, allowing me to avoid many losses and avoid being played by Wang Yun!"

"Of course, I didn't expect Wang Yun to be killed by Li Ru, so many of Boyuan's pointers this time were not used."

"In short, he and I are truly good brothers, the kind that will never betray each other;"

"This time, for the safety of my family, I even asked Boyuan to escort my family to Jingzhou to stay temporarily!"

"What?"

Lu Bu didn't think there was anything wrong with this, but Chen Gong's face changed drastically when he heard this: "My Lord, you actually sent your family to Su Xuan's side?"

"Yes! What's wrong?"

Lu Bu nodded affirmatively, not understanding why Chen Gong's face was so ugly.

"What's wrong! My Lord, you are confused!"

Chen Gong saw that Lu Bu still hadn't realized the problem, and his face became even uglier: "The relationship between people will change! Especially now that Su Xuan is no longer the Su Xuan of the past, and you, my Lord, are no longer the Lord of the past!"

"Handing your family over to Su Xuan, isn't this equivalent to voluntarily handing a fatal handle to Su Xuan?"

"What will you do if he uses this to threaten you, forcing you to submit or do other things that are detrimental to your own interests?"

Lu Bu's face sank, and he looked at Chen Gong with cold eyes: "Chen Gong, you are presumptuous! How dare you sow discord between me and Boyuan?"

"Is the relationship between him and me something you can imagine?"

"Not everyone is as filthy inside as you."

"If you dare to say such things that damage the feelings between me and Boyuan again, don't blame me for turning against you."

"You can talk about anyone, but you cannot talk about Boyuan!"

"He is different!"

If Su Xuan really wanted to plot against him, he had countless opportunities in the past, why wait until today?

As for subduing him?

He and Su Xuan had not discussed this issue.

Su Xuan said at the beginning that he understood Lu Bu's personality. If he didn't let him venture properly and give up completely, Lu Bu could not be truly subdued by anyone.

Therefore, Su Xuan never had this intention.

He was waiting for the day when Lu Bu was tired of playing outside in the future.

Lu Bu found it funny when he heard this back then.

It can only be said that Su Xuan understood him very well.

As for worrying about Su Xuan using Yan Shi and Lu spiritual energy to threaten him?

Lu Bu never had such worries.

If he were worried, he wouldn't have sent them over in the first place.

In his view, there was no safer place in the world than Su Xuan's side.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he knew very well that his precious daughter spiritual energy had a very good relationship with Su Xuan and was very fond of him.

Su Xuan could not be unfavorable to her.

Yan Shi was spiritual energy's mother, and she had a very good relationship with Su Xuan in the past. Su Xuan had always treated her as his own sister-in-law and respected Yan Shi very much. How could he harm him?

If it weren't for the fact that Chen Gong had just joined his command and didn't understand the inside story, Lu Bu would have wanted to chase him away.

"This..."

Chen Gong didn't expect Lu Bu to react so strongly to this matter.

"It seems I have far underestimated the depth of the relationship between Lu Bu and Su Xuan!"

"In that case, I cannot mention this matter to stimulate Lu Bu for the time being!"

"However, I must still persuade Lu Bu to pick up his family from Su Xuan's side as soon as possible!"

"Lest the situation I mentioned really happens?"

One must have a heart to guard against others!

He was going to support Lu Bu to achieve a great cause, and he couldn't leave such an obvious flaw.

Otherwise, what if Su Xuan couldn't be trusted? Wouldn't his years of hard work become nothing?

This was something Chen Gong absolutely could not allow.

Of course, he said this about Su Xuan also because he was very dissatisfied with Su Xuan, who was engaged in the New Deal, and could even be said to have a considerable amount of hostility.

Wasn't what he just said also a kind of probing?

Now that he knew Lu Bu's attitude toward Su Xuan, he could adjust his problems in this regard later.

"It was my slip of the tongue! I didn't know that the relationship between you, my Lord, and the Jingzhou Governor was so good. Please forgive me!"

Chen Gong immediately bowed to Lu Bu and apologized.

"Forget it!"

Lu Bu saw this and couldn't say anything more, waving his hand, "Considering that you just joined and don't know the inside story, I'll let it go this time."

"But in the future, you must never sow discord between me and Boyuan again!"

"Understood!"

Chen Gong immediately bowed and accepted, then turned and asked, "Listening to what you said before, my Lord, the Jingzhou Governor is very strong? You are not his opponent either?"

Lu Bu glanced at Chen Gong, didn't see any malice on his face, and nodded solemnly: "The world thinks that Lu Bu among men, Red Hare among horses, is already the best in the world!"

"Little do they know, there is always someone better, and a sky beyond the sky!"

"Boyuan is that person beyond the sky!"

"In terms of martial arts, his talent and comprehension are much stronger than mine! Don't look at me as the only Heaven-Man Realm expert on the surface, but I know very well that Boyuan has already walked ahead of me, and is currently at least a super existence in the mid-stage of the Heaven-Man Realm."

"In terms of one-on-one, in terms of leading troops and forming formations, I am afraid I am far from being his opponent..."

"What?"

Chen Gong heard this, his face changed, and he exclaimed: "My Lord, you said Su Xuan had already broken through to the Heaven-Man Realm God General? And is even much stronger than me?"

"Correct!"

Lu Bu nodded affirmatively: "Unbelievable, right? Eight years ago, when I first met him, he only had the cultivation of the Anjin stage;"

"But after that, he was like someone who had opened his mind, his cultivation soared, and in just a few years, he surpassed me!"

"This is actually not the key. The most critical thing is that Boyuan's teaching ability is also very strong. Not only does he improve quickly himself, but he can also drive the generals under his command to improve rapidly;"

"Besides himself, the Heaven-Man God Generals under his command that I know of are Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, and Zhao Yun;"

"As for whether there are more, even I don't know!"

"In addition, he is also very willing to invest in the troops under his command. Just from the last meeting at Hulao Pass, what I saw was that the soldiers in his Black Armor Army were all at least at the late stage of the Mingjin stage;"

"Can you imagine how terrifying it would be for such an army to form a military formation and exert its full strength?"

"Even my Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry is far inferior!"

"Therefore, we must maintain the relationship between me and Boyuan even more, and we must never offend him. Otherwise, it will be our disaster, do you understand?"

If he really clashed with Boyuan, what would be the point of fighting?

Just go home and nurse the kids.

After these years of experience, Lu Bu no longer had the idea of truly becoming a king or hegemon, or even unifying the world.

Because he knew very well that he was not cut out for it.

But he didn't want to go and serve Su Xuan at this time.

In Su Xuan's words, he hadn't played enough and still wanted to venture properly.

He didn't ask to truly become a hegemon, but at least he had to make a name for himself, fight properly with the warlords of the world, so that his life in this world wouldn't be in vain, right?

"Hiss!"

Chen Gong heard this and gasped: "Is that so? Su Xuan has at least four Heaven-Man God Generals under his command? The 15,000 Black Armor Army soldiers are all at the late stage of the Mingjin stage, then what about the troops in the Xuanwu Camp?"

"Sure enough, your choice to befriend Su Xuan, my Lord, is correct!"

"Such an existence is indeed not something we can deal with at the moment!"

"Even if we gathered all the warlords of the world to crusade against him, we might not win at this time!"

It seems that if he wants to destroy Su Xuan, he still needs to prepare properly.

Chen Gong admitted that he and even the people of the world had far underestimated Su Xuan.

"The current Su Xuan should actually already have the strength to rule the world, right?" ===== CHAPTER 537 =====
