Chapter 467 - Pitiful Li Feihong

"I've been assigned to be Hongnong's new governor."

While Li Feihong and others were returning to their men to oversee the mobilization, he told Lu Lingqi about the marching order and the assignments from Tong.

After Lu Lingqi listened to the explanation, her opinion of Tong became worse.

"This emperor is unreasonable! Why is he sending you to Hongnong!? Can't he just send someone else!?"

"It's not the emperor's fault, little girl. I was the one that asked him for that city."

"Eh? Really?"

"Yeah. Well, let me finish my job first, and we'll talk later, okay?"

Li Feihong excused himself so that he could continue his work.

"Can I follow you around?"

Lu Lingqi was still curious about how this scholar controlled the legion, so she wanted to learn from them.

"You probably won't learn anything from me. As a matter of fact, you might get annoyed by my skills."

After Li Feihong said that, he opened two more portals in front of all soldiers, who were standing in formation.

Zhang Liao bellowed, "ALL UNITS! FORM TWO LINES! ENTER THE GATE ROW BY ROW, STARTING FROM FRONT BRIGADES!"

As these soldiers had practiced using Li Feihong's gates for countless times during these peaceful years, they did not panic or show confusion. Everyone marched in order, walking into the gates one by one.

Lu Lingqi, who had never seen Li Feihong's system skill, widened her eyes in shock.

"U-U-Uncle Li!! They're being spirited away!!"

She thought that ghosts kidnapped the soldiers.

Zhang Liao laughed, "Silly girl. This is Feihong's skill. Just wait until everyone gets into the gates, and you'll understand what's inside."

"…"

Moving 50,000 people took time. After 3 hours of waiting, Lu Lingqi began complaining about their waiting time and the slow mobilizing speed.

Since the girl was still immature and impatient, Zhang Liao escorted Lu Lingqi into Li Feihong's private world first, so she could rest over there.

Upon getting inside Li Feihong's world, she found another city without walls.

It was Monster Legion's private town, belonged to the soldiers in this army. Not only the soldiers of this legion lived here, but their family members also resided here, working as farmers, craftsmen, or laborers.

Ordinary merchants and non-authorized civilians could not enter this world because of the limitation. As a result, no spy from other organizations managed to find this place.

Even without merchants, peddlers, or tourists, the local residents never complained about the environment as this world was without war, conflict, or taxes!

Li Feihong never took taxes from his people, which was the greatest difference between Tong and him.

This was a secret that Li Feihong, Zhang Liao, Bo Cai, Zhou Cang, and their soldiers hid from Tong since they did not want to trouble these people, who they considered as their family.

It could be said that this world was an independent kingdom that Tong could not touch, but they were still working for the Han Dynasty, supplying the country with everything this world had produced.

The more Lu Lingqi learned about the world, the more confused she was. It took Lu Lingqi a whole day to overcome her culture shock.

"IS UNCLE LI A GOD!?"

Li Feihong rolled his eyes, "I'm just a sinner… I meant I'm an immortal. This much is nothing comparing to the emperor."

"No. The emperor is a lustful beast! You're way better than that man!"

"He can defeat every warrior in this world, Lingqi, including your father. He already defeated your father twice."

"Then, he's a cheater! If he were mortal, my father wouldn't have lost!"

"Haiz," Li Feihong shook his head in resignation. Talking to a teenager in puberty was tiring.

Moreover, he sensed something odd. Whenever Lu Lingqi stared at him or when she mentioned how great Li Feihong was, her eyes were unusually bright. This girl was also overly clingy as she kept hugging his arm while holding his hand when they were talking.

'This is troublesome. Lu Bu is going to kill me if he learns about this later. Heck, I should message him and tell him that his daughter left Ye.'

.

Li Feihong: "Lu Bu, your daughter has run away from home."

It did not take long for Lu Bu to reply.

Lu Bu: "Do you know where she is? Since when has she left the house?"

Tong: "Your wife reported this to me a month ago, and I sent 100 ex-soldiers from Mountaineer Legion to her. She should be at Henei by now. Right, Feihong?"

Li Feihong: "Yeah, she's with me."

Lu Bu: "And you didn't tell me this when she left!?"

Tong: "No point telling you when I secretly flew to your daughter and protected her in secret. She's unharmed."

Lu Bu: "I'll fly to Henei. Wait for me there!"

Li Feihong: "I already took her inside my private world. You will only find me, though."

Lu Bu: "It doesn't matter. I can wait for you to open your portal for me."

Li Feihong: "Sure. Come along with me then. I was worried that I might end up fighting Guan Yu or Zhang Fei in Hongnong. You coming along is reassuring."

Lu Bu: "You come too, Tong!"

Tong: "I'm busy."

Lu Bu: "Busy with what? Baby-making?"

Tong: "Emperor's duties, fool! I have a goddamn country to run. Cao Cao is behaving, but he's plotting something behind my back. Sun Fang has built a galley, but our frigate production hasn't even completed. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are indecisive and haven't killed Sun Fang yet, so I don't know what to do with them! There is also this ongoing war in Pyongyang that I need to allocate a chain of supply to support Tian Yu and Xu Huang. Liu Biao is going to die in 10 to 12 years, and I haven't contacted Liu Cong or Liu Fang yet. I have a lot of things to think about. Wanna work in Ye and suffer together with me?"

Lu Bu: "Good luck, then. IDGAF.

Tong: "No fuck to give to you, too! Well, do me a favor if you found Liu Bei. Just kill the fool and get this civil war over with."

Lu Bu: "Why don't you come here and kill him yourself."

Tong: "Busy."

Lu Bu: "… Well, I change my mind. Feihong, you deal with this matter for me."

Li Feihong: "…"

Lu Bu: "You know what? Feihong, take my daughter as your wife."

Li Feihong: "DAFUQ!? What about your deal with Tong?"

Lu Bu: "IDGAF. Just make my daughter happy. Since she has run away from home, I think she doesn't want to marry Tong, so there is no point pushing it."

.

Li Feihong, who has been reading and texting, was speechless by this development. Tong and Lu Bu ended up bickering like children, resulted in Li Feihong taking the short end of the stick in the process.

Zhang Liao, Bo Cai, and Zhou Cang also saw the clan chat messages and the exchanges. They looked at Li Feihong, waiting for how he would deal with this situation.

The victim of this fight could only give up to his fate, "We'll take care of Lu Lingqi in this world for now. Once we took over Hongnong, we'll think about how we can send her home."

Zhang Liao grinned, "You can just make her your wife, though."

"Are you nuts!? She's freaking 13!"

"13 is already an adult. Do you know that one of my soldiers have an 11-year-old wife?"

Li Feihong wanted to retort, but he could not as it was a common sense in this world.

The age standard in this era was so different than the 21st-century as women were considered adults as soon as their monthly menstruation came.

Women's rights did not exist in this ancient world, and they were treated as tools. It was a harsh world for them.

Li Feihong glanced at Lu Lingqi, who was still clinging his arm.

"This can be troublesome…"

.

.

.

The Monster Legion's mobilization speed was unparalleled in this world. As long as Li Feihong traveled to a designation unharmed, he could reopen portals, which could allow the resting soldiers in the private realm to teleport outside by Li Feihong's current position.

With only Li Feihong and a few bodyguards, they managed to cross the Yellow River undetected.

3 Days later, they reached Hongnong City, which usually took armies weeks to arrive.

Upon arrival, Li Feihong could see the banners, Liu, on top of the walls. It seemed they either had arrived before the messengers or Liu Bei ignored the edict.

'Should I just open portals in front of the city or inside the city? Oh wait, I can sense strong angels in there. The two options are no-go. I'll wait for the proclamation to arrive first. Then, I'll get inside the city.'

Even though Li Feihong had a self-resurrection skill, he chose not to risk waging war with Liu Bei Army without thorough preparation. In this case, it was too risky, especially when they had Guan Yu and Zhang Fei on their side, who could fly to reinforce this city in an instant.

Li Feihong and Zhang Liao had 4 souls each, but Zhou Cang and Bo Cai had 2. They were at a disadvantage against Guan Yu's six wings.

'Should I awaken two or three more wings, so I can get a better standing if I have to negotiate my way into the city?'

With such thoughts, Li Feihong withdrew his men and himself into his private world.

He planned to cultivate a bit, so Guan Yu would not be a threat to the Monster Legion.

.

Five minutes later, Guan Yu arrived at the location where Li Feihong had opened a portal and retreated.

He looked around and tried to expand his senses, but he detected no one but commoners.

"Odd. I thought an emissary from Zhang Tong was here…"

Because Guan Yu had detected a 4-wing angel in the area, he came to investigate, thinking that Tong had sent an envoy for a negotiation.

Yet, he found nobody.

"Someone is spying on us?"

Guan Yu rushed back to Chang'An to report Liu Bei about this event.
