"Then do you want to give it a try?" Xie Lige chuckled.
Lü Bu's eyes immediately lit up,
Of course, he had to try,
His attention had been attracted by the martial arts training field from the moment he entered.
Xie Lige stood up from behind the table,
He walked down the hall,
When he passed by Lü Bu, he turned his head and raised his eyebrows. "Let's go."
After saying that,
He took the lead to open the door,
He stepped out.
The officials outside the door had already heard the footsteps inside and separated,
Only two people were left to serve, bending down to guard the door.
Lü Bu heard this,
He immediately followed behind Xie Lige. When he raised his head, he could see the latter's black armor,
He retracted his gaze and left without saying a word.
As soon as they went out, they headed in the direction of the lotus pond. Beside the pond was the martial arts training field!
Xie Lige stood still as soon as he arrived at the martial arts training field,
He turned his head to look at Lü Bu.
Lü Bu looked around,
He found that there were weapons of all sizes on the side of the martial arts training field. Sabers, spears, swords, and halberds,
They were all-encompassing and all-encompassing. Each one of them was surrounded by blood energy, and their murderous aura was monstrous,
At a glance, one could tell that they were people who had killed before.
However, the most eye-catching among this group of weapons was the shield and saber in the middle of the weapon rack.
The black gilded shield was as heavy as a mountain,
Its murderous aura was monstrous,
It was as if a ferocious beast was choosing a person to devour. The long saber beside it was not much better. There were two deep marks on the bright blade. It was placed there. It and the shield were kings, not kings.
These two weapons completely overshadowed the limelight of all the other weapons.
Seeing Xie Lige look over, the mo saber was the first to let out a soft cry. The big shield was a beat slower. After a while, it let out a muffled groan unwillingly.
The other weapons were as quiet as chickens under the power of these two tones.
Xie Lige smiled in satisfaction. Even his Cangyun Castle's weapons had to suppress the others.
Lü Bu's eyes were filled with shock as he looked at the two weapons. What fierce weapons! Lü Bu's heart was filled with excitement as he looked at the shield and the blade. He wanted to get closer to take a look but was hesitant. He could only look at the two weapons with longing.
When Xie Lige saw him like this, he immediately knew that he had achieved his goal. He laughed and walked to the weapon rack. Then, he picked up the long saber that was humming softly and raised it in front of him.
"How about these two weapons of mine?"
Xie Lige's tone was full of pride, and that was indeed the case.
Lü Bu nodded his head in agreement. When he saw the long saber in Xie Lige's hand, it was as if he had seen a peerless beauty. He murmured, "Excellent, excellent."
A peerless weapon would always ignite a man's passion. Xie Lige's sword and shield were romantic and heroic to a man. It was the passion of a bloody battle. Lü Bu was still young, so his emotions were quickly ignited. His young face turned red as he looked at Xie Lige with excitement.
There was no doubt that he wanted them.
Xie Lige seemed to unintentionally glance at Lü Bu. He knew that this brat had already fallen into his trap.
He might as well make it ten points.
"Do you want them?"
"Yes!"
"Do you want to use them to kill the enemy?"
"Yes!"
Lü Bu was as excited as a little wolf cub. Every time Xie Lige said something, he would howl. He was full of energy, causing the hearts of the servants not far away to jump. They only recovered after a while.
Xie Lige looked down at Lü Bu and said slowly, "Then let me see."
"The sword and shield in my hand were prepared by the Cangyun Army. Only those who have joined the Cangyun Army can use them!" The tall man bowed. For the first time, his handsome face was clearly exposed.
Lü Bu's eyes were gradually filled with fighting spirit. He would not admit defeat. He would definitely be able to obtain this sword and shield.
Xie Lige paused and then closed his eyes. It was as if he had returned to the time when he had first joined this iron-boned sect. He had stood below the illustrious Commander Zhang Sun, knelt down, and made an oath.
He also used the same words to warn Lü Bu.
"Cangyun belongs to the same sect. We are all brothers and sisters. We will protect each other with our lives.
Those who betray the country, betray the faith, are unjust, and harm the people because of selfish desires are all targeted by Cangyun's blade. "His tone was indifferent, but his gaze was oppressive as he looked at Lü Bu below him.
Lü Bu grunted from the shock, but his gaze did not retreat. He glared back fiercely. He knew that if he retreated, he would never have another chance.
"For matters that go against Cangyun's creed, there is only right and wrong. There is no leeway." Xie Lige's pressure increased, and his words were also forceful.
His black eyes indifferently looked at the youth who could not withstand the pressure and was struggling. He did not give the other party any chance to rest.
Lü Bu only felt that the pressure above his head was about to crush him into meat paste. That pair of bottomless black eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. His original hesitation seemed to be exposed under the sun.
He gritted his teeth and persisted. He was not willing to retreat.
"Cangyun's movement is not for the sky to open, not for thunder to strike, not for frost to stop!"
Xie Lige's figure was like a tall mountain. There seemed to be a boundless sea of blood behind him. There were generals holding shields and swords standing on top of it. Their eyes were like torches as they looked at Lü Bu, who was not willing to retreat.
Those gazes seemed to be examining whether or not he had the qualifications to become a member of the Cangyun Army.
Lü Bu felt that he could not breathe. The pressure suddenly increased when he said the third sentence. His gums were already bleeding because he had clenched his teeth too hard. Strands of blood flowed out from the corners of his lips. However, he did not retreat at all. He glared angrily at Xie Lige in front of him.
Xie Lige did not seem to see this scene. He took a step forward. "Can you do it?"
The generals behind him shouted angrily. Their silence spoke louder than words. They questioned Lü Bu below. Can you do the Cangyun Army's military rules?
Can you do the Cangyun Army's pledge to protect you?
Can you do it?
Can you do what I said?
Can you become a true Cangyun Army?
Lü Bu's eyes were bloodshot. He no longer stared at Xie Lige. Instead, he looked at the empty space behind him. There were generals standing there. They looked down at him like a trapped beast and questioned him repeatedly.
His expression had already entered madness. He had entered the life of those generals. His heart was filled with yearning and anger. The veins on his hands were bulging. He shouted angrily, "I can do it!"
His small body let out an unwilling roar. He questioned those high and mighty generals. How do you know that I can't do it? How do you know that I can't become a true Cangyun Army?
He could become the comrade-in-arms they were talking about!
He could become a general in bright clothes like them.
He could also become a soldier who died in battle like them!
At this moment, Lü Bu did not care about the sword and shield that Xie Lige had mentioned at the beginning. He seemed to be questioning those generals in the empty space. He also seemed to be questioning himself. Why couldn't he do it? His talent was outstanding. He was brave and good at fighting. He had done everything with a clear conscience.
When these words came out, there was silence all around!
In a split second, it was as if some obstacle had been broken through. Lü Bu felt his mind clear. He raised his head to look at Xie Lige and found that his expression was no longer as cold as before. The generals behind him were still unyielding, but their eyes revealed gratification.
Cangyun could be weak!
It could be cruel!
But it could not shrink back!
There was no doubt that under the terrifying pressure of the dead generals, every word that Lü Bu said came from his heart. He truly believed that he could become a general.
When he thought of this, Xie Lige couldn't help but sigh. This child's father had often taught him when he was young. The reason why he turned out the way he did was because fate made fools of people. His parents died early, and a young child had to make a living in a frontier city. Beside him were the foreign tribes that were like wolves and tigers. It wasn't strange that he grew crooked.
He looked at Lü Bu, who was as fierce as a wolf cub, and looked at him with a gaze full of vigilance.
Xie Lige was just about to raise his hand to ease the atmosphere when he found that Lü Bu didn't appreciate it at all. When this little brat was forced to say those words, he raised his guard. When he saw Xie Lige raise his hand, he immediately bared his teeth at him in warning.
"Alright, don't be so agitated." Xie Lige retracted his hand. He sighed inwardly and comforted him.
Lü Bu felt the sweetness of blood at the corner of his mouth. He licked it and found that there was an unpleasant smell of rust. He picked up his left hand and wiped it. Immediately, it turned red. This was blood.
Immediately after, he felt a dull pain coming from the root of his teeth. It seemed that the blood was flowing out from there.
He picked up his sleeve and carelessly wiped it, not caring if his clothes were new or not.
After wiping it clean, his muffled voice came from under his sleeve. "Who were those people?"
He was sure that what he had just seen wasn't an illusion. Those unyielding generals were flesh and blood looking at him. Although their gazes were very strict, there was no malice. On the contrary, he felt that they were encouraging him.
When those people finally disappeared, they looked at him with a smile. Their gazes revealed encouragement, making him feel that they were really looking forward to his future.
Xie Lige was suddenly at a loss. He couldn't say that he had just exchanged for the Cangyun Army's Death Door special effect from the system, right? Just as he was about to randomly bluff his way through, the system suddenly notified him that he had received a letter.
He opened it and found that the sender was Zhangsun Wangqing.
[Under Liu Yuan's Sect: Xie Lige!
The returning generals have already told me about you. Under Cangyun's Sect, there is nothing to fear. No matter what happens to this child in the future, since he has passed our army's test, he is a member of our Cangyun Army. Please do not make things difficult for him!
Blood Hand Phoenix- Zhangsun Wangqing]
Xie Lige continued to read and saw that his commander's words were quite protective of Lü Bu. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He had accepted it so quickly and was even protecting his child?
This was the first time in his life that he had sent a letter to his own sect leader. The letter didn't say that it was for him, but for a little brat. Xie Lige's heart suddenly felt a bit sour.
But it was also right. The Cangyun Army never looked at what would happen in the future. They only looked at how you were now. There were so many possibilities in the future, and no one could be certain.
"They …" Xie Lige replied to Lü Bu's words. His gaze was distant. "A group of travellers seeking redemption on the road of revenge. They miss the glory of the past. Even if the soil under their feet has long rotted to the point that they have lost their footing, they are still looking for the light to penetrate the darkness."
