Chapter 321

Cai Yong was accompanied by two girls; the older one was Cai Yan, and the other was only about eleven or twelve, half-hiding behind Cai Yan, blinking her clear eyes—undoubtedly a future beauty.

"I shall leave my two daughters in the care of Lord Su for the time being."

Cai Yong's request was different; he simply sent his two young daughters along with Lu Zhi's family to Changshan City, asking Su Li to take care of them.

After all, the world was in chaos now, and even in the capital, Luoyang City, danger lurked everywhere.

Now that Lu Zhi was sending his family to Changshan City for refuge, Cai Yong also had the same idea and sent his two daughters along.

It was much better than staying in that place of trouble, Luoyang.

Su Li looked at Cai Yong's two daughters; one was the future famous Cai Cai Wenji, and the other was her younger sister, Cai Cai Zhenji.

Both girls looked at Su Li with a hint of shyness; after all, he was a handsome, unfamiliar big brother.

Su Li smiled and said to Cai Yong: "Lord Cai, rest assured. I will raise your two daughters and ensure their safety!"

With Su Li's current strength, protecting two girls was an easy task.

Cai Yong said to his two daughters: "Zhaoji, Cai Zhenji, you two must be obedient while here with Lord Su."

Cai Yan was only seventeen or eighteen now, not yet called Cai Wenji, but Zhaoji. She nodded sensibly, while the younger Cai Cai Zhenji was still very ignorant; seeing her sister nod, she followed suit and nodded as well.

To be honest.

They were full of resistance toward this unfamiliar environment.

But looking at the handsome Su Li, they suddenly felt that changing their place of residence didn't seem so unacceptable.

"Young friend Su, I also entrust the people of my household to you."

Lu Zhi also entrusted his family to Su Li's care to avoid any accidents in the current turbulent Luoyang.

Su Li nodded and took the opportunity to say to Lu Zhi: "General Lu, in a few days, I will go to participate in the national war of us foreign lords. I wonder if General Lu could offer your assistance?"

"The national war between you foreign lords?"

As a native of this world, although Lu Zhi did not understand what a national war was, he could realize something.

However, it seemed that for these native figures to help during the national war, certain hidden conditions needed to be met.

For example, Su Li recruited Zhao Yun, Guan Hai, and others, so he could have them participate in the national war as his subordinates.

Lu Zhi, however, was not Su Li's subordinate, so that path was completely blocked.

When Su Li asked this, a prompt appeared before his eyes.

"Ding! You cannot invite the Epic NPC Lu Zhi to participate in the national war!"

Subsequently.

Lu Zhi replied without the slightest hesitation: "The Han imperial court is currently in a precarious state; I cannot leave easily."

"However."

"I believe that with your strength, young friend, you will surely succeed."

Lu Zhi patted Su Li on the shoulder, expressing encouragement.

"..."

Su Li was left speechless.

Well, it seemed there was no chance of inviting Lu Zhi to participate in the national war.

"We two have important matters to attend to back in Luoyang, so we shall take our leave for now."

Lu Zhi and Cai Yong left behind their families, servants, and the two sisters, Cai Cai Wenji and Cai Cai Zhenji, and then bade farewell to Su Li.

"The two lords should keep an eye on the changing situation; if any unforeseen circumstances arise, you may come to Changshan Jun for refuge."

Su Li cupped his hands and said this final sentence.

The situation in Luoyang City was currently very unstable, with eunuchs and relatives of the Emperor inside, and the Liangzhou rebel army and Dong Zhuo's forces outside.

If it weren't for such internal and external troubles, Lu Zhi and Cai Yong would not have sent their families to Changshan Jun for refuge.

After the Great War of Mount Taixing, Changshan Jun had completely suppressed the Heishan Army and become much more stable. Furthermore, Lu Zhi and Cai Yong had confidence in Su Li's abilities, which was why they chose Changshan Jun as their retreat.

Even a wise man may have a thousand worries.

Lu Zhi, Cai Yong, and others had to consider their families, if not themselves.

After the two left, Su Li returned to Changshan City and cleared out a room in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion for the two girls, Cai Cai Wenji and Cai Cai Zhenji, to live in.

Now that he occupied Changshan City, a commandery-level city.

Su Li had begun to shift the military focus of White Cloud City over.

Linglong had also followed.

The servants left by Cai Yong were very few, with only two maids to look after the two sisters.

Su Li had Linglong keep them company.

"Linglong, you must take care of them."

Su Li gave Linglong a special instruction.

"Hee hee, don't worry, Brother! You can safely leave Sister Cai and Little Sister Cai to Linglong!"

Linglong patted her small, developing chest.

"Our Linglong is truly well-behaved!"

Su Li couldn't help but touch Linglong's little head.

Lately, he had either been out fighting or training troops at home, so he had less time to interact with Linglong.

But fortunately.

As she grew older, Linglong was becoming more mature in both body and mind.

She wasn't as clingy as before.

She spent more time following Luo Mu Qingqing to manage the player guild in Changshan City.

She had actually helped quite a bit.

Soon.

A few days passed.

When the final moments before the national war ticked away, a teleportation array appeared one after another in all cities of small-city level or higher throughout the Three Kingdoms world.

The destination of this teleportation array... was the national war battlefield.

Through this teleportation array, one could reach the dedicated national war battlefield—the Endless Continent!

According to the national war information provided by the system.

The Endless Continent was an infinite world.

Only a small portion of the area was used as the national war battlefield.

But even a small portion was enough to accommodate players from multiple civilized worlds to wage war inside.

Moreover, besides the national war, it was a world in its own right.

Perhaps there were even some heaven-sent treasures hidden within.

Players could explore them on their own.
