Li Yunyi found an inn to stay in You County and spent some money to ask the shopkeeper about Huang Zhong. He wouldn't go looking for him overnight, as he would be treated as a swindler. It would be best if he met him by chance.
Lying on the bed in the inn, Li Yunyi was thinking about Huang Zhong.
"Whether it's in the official history or in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Huang Zhong is a super first-class general. His martial strength should be similar to Guan Yu's. According to many fans of the Three Kingdoms back then, Huang Zhong had the ability to fight with Lu Bu for dozens of rounds. He should be 36 or 37 years old now. In a normal situation, his physical strength should be declining. However, this is the game world. You can't look at him from the perspective of official history or Romance novels. Huang Zhong is an Imperial General. The internal energy he has learned is at least Imperial. Even if it was a god-grade cultivation technique, then his strength should still be in the rising stage at this age. After all, with innate strength, it was still easy for him to live to 200 years old.
Huang Zhong should have been in his forties when he became famous. If he was still so fierce back then, he would probably be even fiercer now. The state of mind of a martial artist was also very important. Would he suffer a blow because of his son's premature death and never make any progress in his martial arts? It's very possible. If that's the case, if I save his son, will he be stronger than before? Maybe he can really fight Lu Bu alone." The more Li Yunyi thought about it, the more excited he became. He immediately checked his storage ring.

"This is it. I'm definitely going to take Huang Zhong. Damn, how could I have forgotten about this reward? It seems to be the reward for upgrading the city. I've been so busy recently that I forgot about it. Tsk tsk, I'll use it after I deal with Huang Zhong.”
There was also a random historical general recruitment token in the storage ring: After using it, a random mission to subdue a general will appear.
Li Yunyi, who was in a good mood, immediately sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate his internal energy.
On
the 17th of December, at six o'clock in the morning, Li Yunyi arrived at the east side of You County after breakfast. He waited near Huang Zhong's residence. In order not to be discovered by Huang Zhong, he sat behind a big tree 200 meters away to see if Huang Zhong would go out today.
World System Announcement: Congratulations to player Edward from the European region for subduing the Emperor Level General-William Wallace (Scottish, a fierce general from the Middle Ages, also an excellent commander, the prototype of the main character in the movie Braveheart. Here, he is also set as an Emperor Level General, but not stronger than Huang Zhong. His combat strength has just reached 96). As the third player in the entire server to subdue a famous historical person, he will be rewarded with 10 reputation points and a random special weapon construction blueprint.
The sudden system announcement surprised Li Yunyi, but he didn't pay much attention to it. Europe was very far away, and he didn't know when the borders would be opened. On the other hand, the players from the European Region were all cheering, celebrating the fact that someone from their region had finally made an international announcement.
At
around 7 am, the courtyard door opened. A muscular middle-aged man dressed in ordinary clothes hurried out. After a while, the man drove a carriage to the front of the courtyard. Not long after the man parked the carriage and entered the courtyard, he walked out with a sickly young man in his right hand. In his left hand was a phoenix beak knife (the blade was arc-shaped, sharp, and wide. There was a fire under the handle. The knife was shaped like a phoenix beak, hence its name. It was a long-handled big knife), and he carried a bow on his back.
After helping the young man onto the carriage, Huang Zhong drove the carriage towards the eastern city gate.
Li Yunyi put on his concealment mask and, while no one was looking around, flew up to the roof with his lightness skill. He followed the carriage from above and landed near the city gate. After leaving the city gate, he accelerated his lightness skill and soon arrived in front of Huang Zhong's carriage. He stood in the middle of the road.
Huang Zhong pulled the reins and shouted,"Who are you? Why are you stopping me?"
"I saw that you have quite a bit of martial arts, so I came to ask for advice.”
"This warrior, I have something important to do. Please do me a favor.”
Li Yunyi stepped forward with his toes and thrust the Dragon Scale Spear in his hand forward, instantly stabbing at Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong was furious, and his true energy exploded. The powerful monarch level general's aura burst out.| He stepped forward, picked up the phoenix blade beside him, and jumped down from the carriage. He raised the blade and slashed down. In a flash, Li Yunyi blocked the attack with his spear.
The weapons collided, and true energy scattered in all directions, blowing the clothes of the two of them into the air.
If it weren't for Li Yunyi's Dragon and Elephant Sutra, which focused on body tempering and gave him immense physical strength, Huang Zhong's furious strike would have definitely taken his life. This strike, which was augmented with zhenqi, carried more than a thousand pounds of force. Although Li Yunyi managed to block it, it was extremely uncomfortable. His internal energy cultivation was inferior to his opponent's.
Seeing Huang Zhong attack again, Li Yunyi immediately retreated. However, Huang Zhong was in a rage and would not let Li Yunyi go so easily. He continued to attack at close range, but Li Yunyi was barely able to block.
"Cough cough, cough cough, daddy.”Immediately, a series of violent coughs could be heard.
Huang Zhong's eyes were filled with sorrow. He sheathed his saber and glared at Li Yunyi before running to the carriage."Xu 'er, are you alright?" Bear with it, I'll bring you to find a famous doctor.”
Li Yunyi heaved a sigh of relief."F * ck, I'm too careless. Compared to this kind of super first-class general, I'm just lacking in strength, whether it's the strength of my zhenqi or my martial arts techniques.”
"What are you doing here? Get lost." Huang Zhong saw Li Yunyi walking over and shouted. He then sat at the front of the carriage and prepared to drive away.
"Hero, please wait. I have a way to treat your son.”
Huang Zhong immediately threw away the horsewhip."What did you say?”
"I have a way to cure your son's illness. I was rash earlier. I hope you can forgive me. I have a medicinal pill here.”Li Yunyi immediately took out a Rejuvenation Pill and handed it to Huang Zhong.
Huang Zhong, who had been staring at Li Yunyi, saw a pill exuding a strong medicinal fragrance appear out of thin air in his hand. He couldn't help but be stunned. He believed Li Yunyi's words that it could cure his son a little more.
"Thank you." Huang Zhong took the pill but did not rush to feed it to Huang Xu.
"Just give it to your son. Don't worry, it's not poison. If it doesn't work, I'll let you do whatever you want.”
"Alright, if you can cure my son, you can ask me to do anything.”Seeing Li Yunyi's clear eyes and magnanimous expression, Huang Zhong turned around and fed Huang Xu the pill.
The Martial Monarch Realm Rejuvenation Pill took effect very quickly. Not long after taking the medicine, Huang Xu stopped coughing. His sallow face gradually turned pale and became the face of a normal person. Huang Xu suddenly sat up and raised his hands into fists. He looked left and right with an ecstatic expression."Father, I'm fine. I feel really fine. Now, my entire body is full of strength, and the true qi in my body is circulating smoothly. The damaged meridians are also healed.”
Huang Zhong's tiger eyes were filled with tears."Good, good, good.”
He then pulled Huang Xu over and got off the carriage to kneel before Li Yunyi.
Thank you for saving my name.”
"Thank you, benefactor, for saving my life.
"Please get up." Li Yunyi immediately helped them up.
"Benefactor, Zhong said before that as long as he can cure Xu 'er, Zhong is willing to do anything.”
Li Yunyi nodded and did not beat around the bush. He organized his words and said,"I am the City Lord of Linhai City and have my own territory. In fact, I have come here today to find you. I have an extraordinary subordinate who is good at divination. He told me that you were in trouble and asked me to help you so that I could take in a general.”
Huang Zhong was a smart person. He immediately knelt on one knee when he heard Li Yunyi's words. Huang Xu did the same.
"Subordinate Huang Zhong greets the lord and swears his loyalty.”
"Subordinate Huang Xu greets lord and is willing to serve lord.”
"Alright, alright, quickly get up. With the help of the two of you today, my Linhai City is really like a tiger with wings.”
System Message: Congratulations to the player for completing the mission of subduing a famous general. Reward: Huang Zhong's loyalty has increased to 100 points.
