I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse-Chapter 1979 - 1981: I Arrived Too Late

"Reporting to My Lord, the strategist requests an audience." At this moment, a guard with a handsome appearance and delicate skin walked up to Liu Bei in small steps, speaking softly.

Liu Bei looked at the handsome maid before him and suddenly showed a chillingly seductive smile: "Quickly invite."

Before long, Zhuge Liang walked into the room, shaking the feather fan in his hand. He had not yet reached the door before he spoke loudly with a laugh: "Congratulations, My Lord! Congratulations indeed! News has come from Xuzhou!"

"Oh?" Liu Bei sat up and showed a joyful expression.

Zhuge Liang took out a small piece of sheepskin from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Bei: "The Ming Emperor has issued a blood edict; the blood edict has been brought back by spies and will arrive in half a month."

Liu Bei pondered for a moment, lightly tapping his fingers on the Taishi chair: "It seems that tomorrow I must send Sun Qian to Jianye."

"My Lord means..." Zhuge Liang bow slightly, revealing a patch of tender white skin as he bent over.

Liu Bei’s smile grew more eerie, as he stepped forward, took Zhuge Liang’s hand, and gently stroked Zhuge Liang’s hand with his fingers. Zhuge Liang squinted slightly, seeming to enjoy it.

"Half a month ago, when I met with Lu Su privately, he hinted that Sun Quan wanted to ally with us."

Zhuge Liang did not open his eyes, his thick eyelashes slightly trembling, his voice as faint as a mosquito: "I heard the Sun Family has a young lady named ’Shang Xiang.’

"I want to form an alliance with Eastern Wu, and Sun Shangxiang is the key."

Zhuge Liang nodded, a smile revealing on his face: "Once the two families form an alliance, the day Xuzhou falls is not far away."

"Bang!"

The extremely heavy door of the Eastern Capital Sky Prison was suddenly hit by a mighty force, and the originally lax, even dawdling guards instantly awakened from their dreams, wielding their weapons in panic, their mouths spilling filthy exclamations of surprise.

"Old Li, go out and see what happened outside!" A rough male voice came from inside the prison.

"I bet some crazy cow ran into our door." Old Li grumbled while putting on his clothes, cursing as he walked toward the door.

As soon as Old Li opened the door a crack, a cold steel blade was already pressed against his neck.

"Y-you... who are you?" Old Li had just opened the door a sliver; he didn’t expect the people outside to be so quick.

Before long, a swarm of people burst in. It was only then that the guards inside the prison realized what was happening.

"What’s going on?" A burly man quickly stepped out from inside, "Who are you? This is the Sky Prison! Breaking into the Sky Prison is a capital offense!"

Since Tiger Boy entered the Eastern Capital, the armor on his body had not been removed, producing a disturbing sound as he walked, the sound of armor friction was especially frightening in the silence.

With a step forward, Tiger Boy grabbed the burly man’s collar and effortlessly lifted him up, his expression fierce: "Where is Lord Zhang and Lord Wang?"

Compared to a valiant general who is always active in blood and death, the burly man was reduced to incontinence just by being exposed to the intimidating aura emanating from Tiger Boy.

"Pah! Coward! This kind of rubbish actually guards the Sky Prison, huh!"

With a swift slap, the burly man screamed like a pig being butchered: "Don’t kill me! I’ll talk! I’ll talk!"

Tiger Boy threw the burly man to the ground and didn’t forget to kick him forward, shouting, "Take me quickly!"

As the burly man led Tiger Boy into the prison to find Zhang Zhao and Wang Lang, You stood proudly alone on the open ground outside the prison door, surrounded by only ten trusted aides.

To be honest, ever since Yuan Yin appeared, You had always had an urge to slap yourself, which could only be explained as a foolish act that caused a not-so-small trouble.

You are never one to care about reputation, therefore there’s completely no need to put Liu Bian on display. Liu Bian’s appearance had twice caused trouble for You, making you very unhappy, extremely unhappy! Irritably unhappy!

Suddenly overwhelmed by intense emotion, You swiftly turned around and punched the extremely heavy wall of the prison with force - "Boom!!"

You actually punched down a large section of the prison’s outer wall!

At this moment, your eyes flash with a determined look.

At the same time, Tiger Boy had already led a group of prisoners outside. Leading the group were your staunch allies Zhang Zhao and Wang Lang.

As Zhang Zhao and Wang Lang saw you, they immediately kneeled down, two elders already shedding bitter tears: "My Lord!"

You hurriedly stepped forward to help them up, with a sorrowful face: "I came too late, my friends!"

Zhang Zhao was relatively fine. Apart from his son Zhang Cheng being out with the army, his family was intact, but Wang Lang looked panicked. He desperately held your hands, pleading: "My Lord! I beg you to save my son Yuan Ji!"

"Yuan Ji?"

Upon hearing the name, your mind naturally conjured the image of a mischievous smile. Although you only met Wang Yuanji once, you were deeply impressed by this little sister.

"My Lord, as we were leaving, Lord Wang kept pleading with this soldier, saying Lord Wang’s granddaughter seems to have been taken to the palace by Liu Bian."

"Tiger Boy!" Your expression turned cold, murderous intent radiating from between your brows!

"Yes!"

"Send a message to Chen San, order him to bring Liu Bian here within an hour!"

"Understood!"

"M-My Lord?" Zhang Zhao and Wang Lang were shocked by your decisive move, after all, no matter how one puts it, Liu Bian currently holds the orthodox Jade Seal as the Emperor of Han.

You said nothing, only slowly raised your head to look at the moon above. Under its glow, your smile made observers feel their hair stand on end from fear!

In less than an hour, a dozen light riders galloped forward, led by Chen San.

Under his arm, Chen San pressed a young man, riding all the way as the young man continuously screamed and shouted "I shall execute your nine clans!", "Five horses dismemberment!", "Devour alive!" and other threatening words.

Every soldier you trained had a characteristic not fitting with this era—they absolutely obeyed your commands and in their world, you were their sovereign, none other! These people were mostly orphan slaves, in their worldview, all other Lords, Aristocrats, and Emperors did not exist, only the boss and leader.

"Bang!"

Chen San did something that made those civil officials rescued by Tiger Boy sigh with pain while making soldiers secretly delighted. He directly threw the young man at his waist to the ground.

"My Lord, he has been brought."
