Join the Great Wall Guard

Chapter 263 The Hero's Ambition

One-third of the land, Wei Di.

Weidu, a huge city in the past, does not have the color of splendor and glory at this moment.On the contrary, there was an almost panic smell everywhere—someone packed their luggage and fled around, but was still caught by the guarding soldiers.

And the soldiers guarding the civilians couldn't help complaining, because the mission from the lord was doing things that the commander didn't want to do.

On the street, there is even a scene of dilapidation --- the smoke of war is everywhere, and there are remnants, it is difficult to find people;

In short, the entire Wei capital, up and down, is full of an atmosphere of decline, which makes people extremely depressed.

As for why Wei Di, which used to have a strong and powerful background, became what it is today, it all stems from the Chibi War that happened before.

The land of Shu and the land of Wu joined forces to fight against the land of Wei, and Zhuge Liang, the military master of the land of Shu, even mastered the power left by the gods of the past—the Dongfeng Altar. With absolutely devastating destructive power, all the "iron chain boats" in Wei Di were wiped out.

Afterwards, the land of Shu and the land of Wu rose up to counterattack, and the land of Wei fell one after another.

If Cao Cao, the monarch of Wei in the end, had not used the taboo power of the blood clan to forcefully repel the armies of Shu and Wu, perhaps even the capital of Wei would have been destroyed.

"Hmph, what a mess!"

At this time, in the imperial palace of the capital of Wei, Cao Cao was sitting on the throne, his face was extremely cold, his eyes were as red as blood, and a majestic evil spirit was rising all over his body, not like a human being.

"It's my fault too. You shouldn't trust that actor's words."

Sima Yi beside Cao Cao also said in a deep voice, thinking that he was actually deceived by his junior brother Yuan Ge who had always looked down upon him, a black flame burned in his chest, wishing to burn Yuan Ge to death along with his puppet.

Although Sima Yi was imposing and handsome, there was an evil spirit between his brows—including the dark light shining in his cloudy pupils, as if his whole body was black.

In the battle of Chibi, chains of iron chains, this was exactly the strategy Yuan Ge offered to the King of Wei at the beginning, but it turned out to be the prelude to a fatal blow.

"However, fortunately, I also kept a hand of cards."

A cold and cruel smile rose from the corner of his mouth, which was in line with his status as a hero. Cao Cao stood up from the throne, and pulled out the blood-drenched blade from the scabbard.

For a moment, the sky was filled with blood, covering the entire palace, and the strong and pungent smell of blood even made all the officials below cover their faces one after another.

"The power of the blood clan is in my hands. As long as I, Cao Cao, have a drop of blood left, I can live forever and live forever."

The blood on the blade reflected between the pupils, and Cao Cao's smile became strange and terrifying.

"However, joining forces between the lands of Shu and Wu is quite a problem. The blood has almost been consumed."

His eyes dimmed a bit, but soon revealed a greedy light.

"Zhongda, you know, I need fresh blood. Only fresh blood can give me the power to break the order of this world. For this reason, even if I sacrifice a small price, it is not a pity."

The tone was extremely cold and ruthless, mixed with insurmountable domineering, Cao Cao licked the corner of his mouth.

"indeed."

Sima Yi remained expressionless, but replied respectfully.

He understood that when Cao Cao said such words, another group of innocent civilians would die and become victims of the power of the blood clan.

However, the life and death of others has nothing to do with me, Sima Yi, and there is nothing worthy of sympathy.

Is it just relying on the power of the blood clan?It's ridiculous. The real power is hidden in the root of knowledge. I am afraid that only Kong Ming will agree with him.

"That's right, Zhongda."

Cao Cao's voice suddenly sounded, and Sima Yi silently raised his head, looked at the unfathomable light in Xiongxiong's eyes, and said in response: "The minister is here."

"There's nothing unexpected about Wenji's place, right?"

"No, she has forgotten everything about the past. Whether it's the cause of her father's death or the friend who saved her life."

"Hmph, that's fine."

Cao Cao couldn't help sneering when he thought of the young man who turned against him in order to save Cai Wenji.

"Continue to let her study the clues left by her father. Regarding the relics of the gods, I, Cao Cao, must also obtain their power!"

The power of the gods, ancient and mysterious but powerful, is one of the necessary conditions for conquering the world. This is Cao Cao's cognition after experiencing the Battle of Chibi.

"Speaking of the power of the gods, I suddenly thought of a person."

"What King Wei said was about that young man named Lu Yu?"

"That's right, I heard that he came to the land of Jixia from the desert in the west, and entered the Tongtian Tower. There must be a secret I want to know about him."

Lu Yu's reputation is known to everyone, not to mention women and children, but it has been heard of by every high-ranking person.

After all, the shaking of Chang'an City and the confrontation of the power of the gods caused a sensation in the entire Continent of Kings.

"If he can join our camp, then the goal of dominating the world will be much easier."

Cao Cao longed for power, but also longed for talents, especially those rare talents for his kingly way.

"Oh? I think it's impossible for him to be interested in us."

Sima Yi taunted silently in his heart. He had also heard about Lu Yu's behavior, so he certainly would not want to have any contact with someone like Cao Cao.

Moreover, how could such a powerful person be inferior to others?

"Hehe, of course I know he won't be interested in us. But."

The pupils that seemed to be dripping with blood flashed a cunning and cold evil light.

"If he blocks my kingly way, then I will let him die without a place to bury him, just like the former Wushuang gods and demons."

Regarding the conversation between Cao Cao and Sima Yi, Lu Yu, who had just left Jixia and arrived in the third place, had no idea at all.

"This is Wei Di."

According to the old master's instructions in his memory, Lu Yu confirmed again and again that the barren scene in front of him was the largest Wei land in one-third of the land.

"No way, why is Weidi so desolate?"

As Lu Yu walked, he looked around, and sometimes he could see ruins smoking with gray smoke, as well as fleeing people.

"Could it be because of the Battle of Chibi?"

I once heard the old master say that it was the previous battle of Chibi that created the new situation of three-thirds of the land. The land of Shu and the land of Wu joined forces to successfully defeat the land of Wei and the king of Wei Cao Cao.
