"My surname is Ye Lui, my name is Wen Yuan, and my name is Liao. I am the flag master of the saber flag of the Heaven Theory Hall.”
"This... What do you mean? I, Lu Fengxian, did not say that I wanted to take you under my banner. Moreover, Fengxian is the target of the Heaven Theory Hall that must be eliminated…"
Seeing the purple-eyed man from that day appear in front of him again, Lu Fengxian was slightly stunned. He immediately looked around to see if there was an ambush.
Seeing that Lu Fengxian was completely on guard, Ye Lui Liao folded his arms and bowed,""My lord need not worry. I am the only one who has come here. There are no assassins from the Heavenly Theory Hall. There was a tradition in the Liao clan that if someone saved his life, he would serve him as his master for the rest of his life, except for his lifespan. If another person saved his life, it would be another matter... My lord has given me a way out. Although I served Wu Zun before, from now on, I will serve Lord Lu for the rest of my life.”
Lü Fengxian was slightly surprised when he first heard this, but it was not unreasonable after thinking about it. In addition, the Liao tribe had such a custom, so he did not mind.
"But…Aren't you afraid that you'll be killed by the Hall of Heavenly Theory like me? I don't mind you coming with me, but you have to think it through.”
Lu Fengxian's words seemed to imply that he did not refuse. Ye Lui Liao happily continued,""My lord is willing to let Ah Liao follow you. Ah Liao is already very grateful, so why would he be afraid of the pursuit of the Heavenly Theory Hall! Although we are not afraid of it, it would be very annoying if we were to encounter its surprise attacks from time to time. We have to discuss finding a place to expand our forces before making any plans. Moreover, since I can easily find my lord, I believe that the rest of the troops will soon find me.”
Although he didn't want Ye Lui Liao to call him that, he should leave as soon as possible as Ye Lui Liao said, so he replied,""Don't worry! I already have a plan. Let's head southwest now.”
"My lord is so fearless. Someone must have come to help.”
Yelu Liao quickly ran towards Lu Fengxian.
“... Hah! Hah! That's right! Ah Liao, I think you shouldn't use Ye Lui as your surname. Ye Lui's surname is rare, and it's very easy to be targeted by the Heavenly Theory Hall.”
"My lord, what do you mean?"
“... He might as well use the Han surname of Yan as his surname and call him Zhang Liao!”
After gaining Zhang Liao's help, Lv Fengxian and Zhang Tie moved southwest according to Lv Fengxian's original plan. On the way, they met Zhang Liao's team of assassins. They couldn't meet any other opponents who could withstand their attacks. However, Lv Fengxian and the others were well aware of the means of "Tianlun Palace". Therefore, they dared not hasten their pace towards the Central Plains. They entered the Han border from the west foot of the desert (the eastern part of the former Soviet Union near the coastal area) and came to Youzhou Province.
Obviously, Youzhou had not suffered any damage because Lu Zhi's army was fighting Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban army at the border of Jizhou. The people in Youzhou were still living and working in peace and contentment. The two were surprised to see this. They quickly asked an old man and learned that this place was under the influence of the three great clans, the Yuan clan.
The Yuan family was a famous family in Hebei. The elders of the family had once held the position of three dukes. Because of his promotion in the three families, there were countless capable people in the family. However, the family leader Yuan Kui was not ambitious. Fortunately, his descendants Yuan Shao, Yuan Yi and Yuan Shu had the ambition of a wolf and had the strength to plant in Hebei, so they became the world's number one family.
The Yuan clan had always had a strong military force. Coupled with their top-notch weapons and defensive equipment, they not only protected Youzhou, Yanzhou, Yunzhou, and other places besides Jizhou during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but also established a world-famous "Peerless Cavalry" to establish a good reputation in the Han Dynasty due to the chaos of the war. Those who sought refuge in the future flocked to them like ducks, and they became the overlord of the northeast.
"The two in front, please wait!"
Lu Fengxian was shocked when he heard this. He wondered if the killers of the "Tianlun Hall" had arrived. He turned around and saw two people. One had a strong physique. Although he wasn't as tall as himself, he was already more than the others. The other person walked unsteadily. One could tell at a glance that he was a martial arts practitioner. The temples of the two of them bulged high, showing the depth of his martial arts. Lu Fengxian knew what was going on and gave Zhang Liao a look without batting an eyelid. Zhang Liao understood and secretly held the Profound Heavenly Martial Leopard tightly behind his back, ready to take the initiative to strike a fatal blow at any time when the two sides were at odds.
"Why do the two of you want us to stay on the street?”
"The governor of Youzhou has ordered that the common people in the province are forbidden to carry weapons.”The muscular man pointed at the Profound Heaven Martial Leopard on Zhang Liao's back and said.
"This brother is wrong. Now that the Yellow Turban is in a chaotic world and the world is dangerous, everyone inevitably carries a self-defense weapon on their body in order to protect themselves. And I don't have the strength to tie up a chicken, so I need this brother to protect me along the way. It's not strange to have one or two weapons on my body!”
"A country has its laws, and a family has its rules. Since you are in Youzhou, you must abide by the rules. Although I, Yuan Yi, will not pursue the two of you for violating the ban on carrying sabers, please leave your weapons behind!”
After the man finished speaking, he actually tried to snatch the saber, but Zhang Liao was not an ordinary person. He immediately took a step forward, and in an instant, his strength disappeared without a trace. The man flew into a rage. He pulled out a pair of tridents from his back and was about to charge forward to fight, but another man blocked him and used his eyes to signal him not to act rashly.
"The martial arts of the person beside you is not bad, but I see that the clothes of the two of you don't look like locals.”The man cupped his fists and said humbly.
"The two of us have traveled the world and have no residence.”
"I am the Youzhou governor, Yuan Shu. This is my cousin, Yuan Yi. Just now, my brother was just acting on impulse. The two of you did not know about it.”
Lyu Fengxian and the others were shocked. This person was the new generation of Yuan Clan's young master, Yuan Shu. He and Yuan Shao were known as the "Two Heroes of the Yuan Clan". His ancestral "Beast Fist" was famous all over the world, and it was said to be a fist technique that could compete with "Dragon Slaying Fist".
"I am Lu Bu, and this is my brother with a different surname, Zhang Liao. I don't know if the provincial governor has offended me by coming.”
Lü Fengxian was afraid that the Tianlun Hall would come to him again, so he gave up his real name and called him Bu.
"So it's Brother Lu, Brother Zhang…Brother Zhang's kung fu is very good. Yuan Shu admires him very much. I wonder if you would like to have a cup of wine with me so that Yuan Shu can fulfill his duty as a host.”
"Third brother, they…That saber…"
Yuan Yi roared in dissatisfaction, only to see Yuan Shu stop him with his gaze. Although Yuan Yiming was his cousin, it seemed that Yuan Shu's power was much greater than his.
"Hey! The two of us aren't people with manners. We're just villagers, and it's difficult for us to enter the hall of elegance. We brothers will remember Provincial Governor Yuan's good intentions…"
Lu Fengxian had something to do, so to avoid any unnecessary trouble, he ignored Yuan Shu and the other two after a few polite words and walked to the end of the street.
Seeing that the two of them did not give Yuan Shu any face, Yuan Yi could not help but say,"Third brother, why did you stop me from teaching those two a lesson?”
Yuan Shu watched Lu Fengxian and the other man leave with a strange smile on his face."These two people are not ordinary. Although I do not know how strong they are, I am certain that the two of us will definitely be the ones who suffer a loss if we fight…Moreover, I have a feeling that in the near future, I will have the opportunity to properly compete with them.”
