Chapter 730

Zhang Fei nodded gratefully and cupped his hands: "Then many thanks, Sir!"

"Hmm!"

Yi Jiu nodded and continued: "You too, General! I wish you success in your revenge soon!"

Afterward, Yi Jiu summoned nearby secret guards and some members of the Su family chamber of commerce to help Zhang Fei's clan pack their belongings. That very night, they departed in a hurry, quietly leaving the capital of Zhuo Commandery and disappearing into the night sky, with no outsiders knowing their whereabouts.

After watching his relatives leave, Zhang Fei also packed his supplies and led his eight hundred personal guards away from the capital of Zhuo Commandery, heading south.

On Especially Guan Yu Yu's side,

After leaving Xu Chang, he spent several hours rushing to the Cao army camp at Guandu.

He hurriedly met Cao Cao again and cupped his hands: "Especially Guan Yu Yu greets Lord Cao!"

"Yunchang is here! Please, sit!"

Seeing Especially Guan Yu Yu, Cao Cao welcomed him with a smile, pulled him to sit aside, and then sighed with a heavy expression, patting Especially Guan Yu Yu on the shoulder: "Please accept my condolences regarding Brother Xuande!"

"Even I didn't expect Yuan Shao to commit such a heinous act against him! It is truly inexcusable!"

"Had I known, I would not have let Yunchang kill Yuan Shao's generals, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, for me!"

"Perhaps then Yuan Shao would not have killed Brother Xuande!"

"Alas! This is all my fault! If you want to blame someone, Yunchang, blame me!"

Hearing Cao Cao say this, Especially Guan Yu Yu was moved but shook his head: "Lord Cao, you are too kind! My eldest brother's death cannot be blamed on you, Lord Cao!"

"It is entirely due to the small-mindedness and evil heart of the dog thief Yuan Shao; how can I blame you, Lord Cao?"

"If I seek revenge, I will only look for the culprits, Yuan Shao and Guo Tu!"

"I came this time hoping that Lord Cao would allow me to return to the battlefield, so that while killing enemies for you, I might also have the chance to strike at Yuan Shao, personally behead those two dog thieves, Yuan Shao and Guo Tu, and avenge my eldest brother. I hope Lord Cao will grant this."

With that, Especially Guan Yu Yu stood up and bowed to Cao Cao to make his request.

"That is naturally no problem!"

Cao Cao agreed without a second thought: "This is only right and proper; I would naturally not stop you from seeking revenge, Yunchang. In fact, I will help you with all my might."

"After all, Yuan Shao is not only your enemy but also an opponent I must defeat!"

"By the way! I have already sent an envoy to Yuan Shao to negotiate and see if we can exchange for Brother Xuande's remains."

"At this moment, the envoy should have already arrived at Yuan Shao's camp, and news should be coming back soon!"

"Yunchang can wait patiently; barring any accidents, this matter should be successful."

"When that time comes, I will hold a grand funeral for Brother Xuande and bury him with the rites of a prince."

After all, Liu Bei was not only a member of the Han imperial clan but had also served as the King of Qi for a time!

Burying him with the rites of a prince was very appropriate.

The key was that this could further win Especially Guan Yu Yu's favor; why not do it?

In any case, it wouldn't cost much money.

Sure enough, Especially Guan Yu Yu was moved beyond words, stood up excitedly, and bowed deeply to Cao Cao: "Many thanks, Lord Cao! I will keep this favor in my heart and will surely repay it handsomely!"

He had indeed forgotten to think of a way to retrieve his eldest brother's remains.

He hadn't expected Cao Cao to not only think of it but also take action; how could Especially Guan Yu Yu not be moved?

"Hehe! Yunchang, there is no need for this!"

Cao Cao stood up, helped Especially Guan Yu Yu up, and said earnestly: "Given our relationship, why be so formal?"

"Moreover, I have always admired Brother Xuande and considered him a heroic figure."

"Since his death has a significant connection to me, there is little I can do for him, just express my sincerity!"

At the same time, Cao Cao swore to himself: "I must eliminate Xu You before he can run his mouth; I cannot let Yunchang know the truth about Liu Bei's death. Otherwise, forget about Yunchang serving me; he might just behead me on the spot!"

Thinking of this, Cao Cao felt a chill on his neck.

Stay steady, I must stay steady!

Especially Guan Yu Yu did not know what Cao Cao was thinking; otherwise, he would have truly wanted to kill him.

Next, Cao Cao continued to battle with Yuan Shao.

Especially Guan Yu Yu also reappeared on the battlefield, and he performed even more crazily and terrifyingly than before.

In every battle, he was at the forefront, leading his eight hundred personal guards to slaughter Yuan Shao's soldiers, causing massive losses to Yuan Shao's army.

"Damn it! This Especially Guan Yu Yu has appeared again! Is there really no way to deal with him?"

Yuan Shao naturally discovered Especially Guan Yu Yu's reappearance on the battlefield and his frantic energy. He was both shocked and angry, and immediately summoned Xu You, Guo Tu, and others to discuss countermeasures.

"My Lord!"

Ju Shou spoke first: "My Lord, you should not have been so hasty in killing Liu Bei; otherwise, we wouldn't have to worry about Especially Guan Yu Yu's threat now!"

"After all, he had clearly already left the front line because of Liu Bei."

Yuan Shao's face showed a flash of displeasure upon hearing this.

Guo Tu, seeing this, immediately retorted: "Gongyu, that is not so! Liu Bei deceived you, My Lord, and deserved to die! He is not worth pitying! Killing him was the right thing to do!"

"Moreover, Liu Bei is already dead, and this matter is a foregone conclusion. What is the point of you saying these things now?"

"It would be better to think of a way to solve the problem!"
