Chapter 412
With their keen eyes, they could naturally see that Lu Bu had already used more than 80% of his strength, and yet he could only fight to a draw with the black-faced man holding the twin halberds.
The nature of this battle instantly changed from a simple surprise attack to a contest between peerless generals.
But if they continued to fight like this, the side at a disadvantage was clearly them.
After all, Sishui Pass was now the territory of the coalition of warlords; once time dragged on, the millions of coalition troops and the outsiders who joined the warlord faction would surround and kill them.
Even if they were strong, they would be buried here.
Then...
The two looked at each other and instantly made a decision, rushing forward: "My lord, we are here to help you!"
Zhang Liao and Gao Shun also took out long spears and wanted to join the battle between Lu Bu and Dian Wei.
Although they knew Lu Bu didn't like others interfering in his battles, they had no choice.
They couldn't let Lu Bu continue to fight here and miss the good opportunity to escape.
"The young people of this generation don't talk about martial virtue!"
Su Li gave a look to Zhao Yun, Zhao Yu, Zhang He, and Pan Feng: "Keep them alive!"
The four understood in a second and directly blocked Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.
"You two, wanting to bully the few with the many, isn't that too much?"
"That's right, if you have the ability, why not trade a few moves with me, Old Pan?"
"Brother Su says you young people don't talk about martial virtue!"
"..."
Zhao Yun, Zhao Yu, Zhang He, and Pan Feng struck, directly sealing off Zhang Liao and Gao Shun's support.
There was no other way; Zhang Liao and Gao Shun had to charge hard. To support Lu Bu, they had to break through the blockade of the four.
They immediately became embroiled in a chaotic battle.
Originally, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun thought the coalition had no experts left, and that their combined strength would soon break through the blockade of the four, but after fighting, they realized they had thought too much... 0
Especially Zhao Yun, who possessed divine might no less than Lu Bu's; as soon as he struck, he carried the momentum of a soaring dragon, directly stunning the two.
Plus Zhang He, Zhao Yu, and Pan Feng assisting from the side, even Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were quickly suppressed.
If it weren't for Su Li cherishing talent and specifically telling Zhao Yun and the others not to hurt them, they would probably have been killed soon.
"Damn it! There are so many experts in the coalition!"
Zhang Liao and Gao Shun became more and more shocked as they fought, not to mention the black-faced man fighting Lu Bu.
Even this young general with the white horse and silver spear in front of them felt like he had the peerless might of Lu Bu.
How could they fight this?
If this continued, they might really all be planted here.
Fortunately.
At this moment, Lu Bu also seemed to sense the crisis of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.
Seeing Zhang Liao and Gao Shun being suppressed by the enemy instantly, he decisively pushed Dian Wei back once again, shook the Divine Ghost Fangtian Halberd in his hand, and said to Dian Wei in a deep voice: "I really wanted to decide the winner with you here."
"Unfortunately, tonight is not the right time; let's meet on the battlefield tomorrow!"
As soon as the words fell.
"Peerless Ultimate Skill: Controlling the Ghost God!"
"Peerless Ultimate Skill: Controlling the Ghost God!"
Lu Bu held the Divine Ghost Fangtian Halberd horizontally in the center, and a blood-red light instantly covered the battlefield, surging with astonishing blood energy.
Then...
You don't see it, but a storm rises on flat ground.
And the next moment...
"Hum!"
Lu Bu clearly hadn't made any moves yet, but an extremely tyrannical pressure instantly swept over everyone's bodies!
The dust on the ground flew up, only to be pressed down by that power!
The surrounding ground cracked, and the earth shook!
Even the night seemed to be affected; a blood moon appeared, eventually forming a phantom of a ghost god that shrouded the entire Sishui Pass.
That ghost god phantom was terrifying, powerful, and difficult to resist!
It was truly like a ghost god, looking down from the sky at the tiny humans!
Finally.
The ghost god suddenly condensed a ghost claw in its hand and grabbed toward the ground; everyone present felt their eyes go dark and their bodies stall.
Even Dian Wei and Zhao Yun felt their vision blur, and their bodies were affected, making it difficult to move.
By the time they recovered, Lu Bu had already led Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry out of the rear equipment camp, ready to leave.
But at this time...
Su Li struck!
The Overlord's power within his body surged, easily neutralizing the pressure of the ghost god.
Then the Heaven Dragon Halberd appeared in his hand, pointing directly at Lu Bu.
"Where are you running, you rat? If you have the ability, fight me."
The words fell.
A heaven dragon soared into the sky, easily breaking the ghost god phantom.
Everyone immediately recovered.
They looked at Lu Bu and the three others with hostility.
"You are that coalition general Su Li who killed Hua Xiong?"
Lu Bu looked at Su Li and recognized his identity immediately.
"So what if I am?"
Su Li admitted it generously.
"Very good, I was just wanting to fight you, but unfortunately it is too late today; let's fight another day."
Lu Bu did not accept Su Li's challenge, rode the Red Hare horse, and led Zhang Liao and Gao Shun to turn around and run again.
No matter how brave he was, he dared not duel Su Li in such a situation.
And he had already felt Su Li's toughness; it was definitely not below his own.
Could someone who could easily break his peerless skill's momentum be an ordinary person?
"Damn it, you still want to escape? No way!"
Dian Wei had already recovered, and seeing Lu Bu lead people to escape, he wanted to chase after them.
But he was actively stopped by Su Li.
"Forget it, Lu Bu is protected by the divine steed Red Hare; you won't be able to catch up."
Su Li shook his head and didn't intend to fight Lu Bu to the death tonight.
It was really unnecessary.
Because the siege equipment had already been destroyed, even if he kept Lu Bu, it would be meaningless.
Besides, he couldn't necessarily keep Lu Bu, so why fight to the death?
"The other warlords are already setting up defenses outside; let's see if they can keep Lu Bu!"
Su Li found a reason for Dian Wei.
"Hehe."
Dian Wei touched his head: "My lord, that guy is indeed a bit powerful; I used my full strength and still felt I couldn't beat him!"
"Normal, that guy is the Lu Bu, Lu Lu Lu Fengxian, hailed as peerless in the world; being able to fight him to a draw already counts you as a fierce general of the world."
Su Li patted Dian Wei on the shoulder to comfort him, while also looking at Lu Bu's back with slight shock.
To be honest, Lu Bu was even more powerful and decisive than he had imagined.
He actually used his peerless skill to escape when he saw the situation was not right.
This decisiveness was not just built on strength.
