Chapter 306

Every collision emitted a loud roar of metal clashing, and the resulting shockwaves cracked the surrounding earth with every strike!

Exchange after exchange, each producing a thunderous roar.

The ground within a hundred-meter radius was covered in countless cracks due to their battle.

Countless trees, flowers, and stones were shattered by the aftermath of their fight.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

The sound of metal clashing continued.

In just ten minutes, the two had already exchanged dozens of blows.

Originally, Su Li possessed the characteristic of the Red Blood Dragon Cavalry, which allowed him to multiply his combat strength during battle; logically, he should have grown stronger as he fought and gradually gained the upper hand.

But the opponent seemed to possess some kind of characteristic that made him stronger the more he fought, constantly improving his strength during the battle.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The thunderous roars grew louder, and the destruction of the surrounding environment became more severe; this sudden contest lasted for a full half-hour before it ended.

As for the reason it ended.

It was entirely due to a single voice.

"Brother Yun?"

I don't know when, but Zhao Yu had appeared nearby.

Seeing the young man holding the silver spear, she suddenly spoke tentatively, "Are you Brother Yun?"

Upon hearing Zhao Yu's voice, Su Li and the man clashed one more time, and after being pushed apart, Su Li shook the Blood Dragon Divine Pattern Halberd in his hand and came to Zhao Yu's side, "Xiao Yu, do you know him?"

Zhao Yu pointed at the silver-speared youth with great excitement and shouted, "Yes, he is my brother, Brother Yun, Zhao Yun!"

"Zhao Yun?!!"

Su Li was slightly stunned, and then filled with wild joy.

This person was actually Zhao Yun.

No wonder he was so formidable.

Even with his current strength, he felt a faint sense of being suppressed.

"Xiao Yu, you are Xiao Yu!"

Zhao Yun also recognized Zhao Yu at a glance, reaching her side in the blink of an eye. Seeing the heroic-looking Zhao Yu, he let out a heavy sigh of relief, as if a great weight had been lifted from his heart, "Brother has finally found you!"

"

"Hee hee! Brother Yun, have you finished your training?"

"Let me tell you, Xiao Yu is very strong now too. This is the lord Xiao Yu has recognized; he has trained Xiao Yu into a very powerful female general..."

Zhao Yu said excitedly, talking non-stop as if showing off a treasure.

"He is your lord?"

Zhao Yun was somewhat surprised, staring intently at Su Li.

"That's right, Brother Yun."

"I am currently suppressing the Black Mountain bandits with my eldest brother; why did you appear here? And why were you fighting with my eldest brother?"

Zhao Yu also looked at Zhao Yun with some confusion.

"This..."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun seemed to understand what had happened, and a flush of red immediately appeared on his face.

He had just come down from the mountain and encountered Su Li beating Zhang Yan into a serious injury, with a pile of corpses lying on the ground.

He had assumed Su Li was some kind of villain.

Without time to think, he had wanted to stop Su Li's evil deeds.

Now that he understood Su Li was actually suppressing the Black Mountain bandits, he naturally felt deeply ashamed.

"I apologize, it was Zhao Zhao Zilong who was rash."

Zhao Yun immediately cupped his hands toward Su Li, "I must also thank you, my lord, for your kindness in taking care of my sister!"

"Hahaha, it's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. We can consider ourselves friends after a fight. Xiao Yu serving as a general under my command has achieved many merits; it is I who should apologize to Brother Zhao Zhao Zilong."

"Blame me for acting on my own and bringing Xiao Yu into the path of the military."

Su Li immediately waved his hand and cupped his hands toward Zhao Yun as well.

Since Zhao Yun had appeared, and with the connection of Zhao Yu, he naturally had to recruit him.

He had to show proper respect to a man of talent.

Otherwise, if he relied on his status to act high and mighty, let alone recruiting him, Zhao Yun might just take Zhao Yu away.

"My lord, you are too kind. In these chaotic times, learning some martial arts for self-protection is a good thing; using martial arts to protect the borders and the people is the true righteous path."

"Zhao Zhao Zilong came down from the mountain this time with the intention of joining the army, to use my skills to protect the borders and the people, and to restore order!"

Zhao Yun stated his purpose for coming down the mountain without reservation.

Alright!

A sharp light flashed in Su Li's eyes; this was clearly Zhao Yun delivering himself to his doorstep.

Didn't the meaning of those words imply that he wanted to be recruited?

However, before Su Li could organize his words on how to recruit Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yu, who was beside him, suddenly pulled on Zhao Yun, looking at him with anticipation: "Brother Yun, why don't you join my eldest brother's command? The two of us siblings, together with my eldest brother, will surely be invincible across the world!"

...............................................................

Before Su Li could speak.

Zhao Yu, who was beside him, suddenly pulled on Zhao Yun, looking at him with anticipation: "Brother Yun, why don't you join my eldest brother's command? The two of us siblings, together with my eldest brother, will surely be invincible across the world!"

Alright!

Invincible across the world, that sounds fine.

"This..."

Zhao Yun fell into hesitation.

In fact, before he came, he had intended to go to Youzhou to join Commandant Gongsun Zan and defend against the foreign tribes.

Seeing Zhao Yun's confusion, Su Li took the initiative to say: "Brother Zhao Zhao Zilong, your bravery is unmatched across the world!"

"With such bravery, are you willing to join me in battle, to achieve great things?"

This was his formal invitation!

If Zhao Yun did not accept, it meant his ambitions lay elsewhere.

If he wanted to recruit him, he might need to use other means.

"Join in battle, achieve great things?"

Zhao Yun pondered for a moment, not immediately responding to Su Li, but instead asked: "The world is now in chaos, the imperial court is corrupt, and the people are in dire straits. Zhao Zhao Zilong, bearing my master's name, is determined to follow a lord who can implement benevolent governance. I wonder if you, my lord, can fulfill Zhao Zhao Zilong's ambition?"

"Benevolent governance?"

Su Li was slightly stunned, then reacted.

This peerless general before him was a truly loyal and righteous man in the original history of the Three Kingdoms.

The lord he followed would surely have to be a man of benevolence and righteousness, or at least appear to be one.

"The old have support, the young have care, and return peace and well-being to the people of the world!"

"I wonder, Brother Zhao Zhao Zilong, if my goal is this, does it fulfill your ambition?"

Su Li said immediately.

As expected.

When Su Li said these words, Zhao Yun's expression became solemn: "My lord, are these words true!"

"A man's word is his bond!!"
