"Save Diao Chan? That's the perfect plan?"

Chen Xiaobei's words had obviously struck Lu Bu, freezing him in his tracks.

Lu Bu instinctively withdrew his force, and put his mission to kill Chen Xiaobei aside.

Evidently, that had stunned everyone. They had really thought that Chen Xiaobei was about to die. They could not believe that what Chen Xiaobei had said could stop Lu Bu's attack midway. Not to mention that Lu Bu was also holding a Divine Instrument!

Everyone stared blankly at the scene, disconcerted by the sudden turn of events. 

It was all very simple, in actual fact. Chen Xiaobei had the key to Lu Bu's heart, Diao Chan!

"What are you saying?" Lu Bu glared suspiciously at Chen Xiaobei.

"I've already settled this matter. We'll be able to save Diao Chan very soon!" Chen Xiaobei smiled.

"How could this be? Diao Chan is in Shen Gongpao's hands. How are you going to save her?" Lu Bu frowned. "Tell me now! Explain yourself! If I find out that you are stalling me, and that you've found someone to take your place in the finale, I will make sure you die an ugly death!"

"Heh, stall you?" Chen Xiaobei sn.i.g.g.e.red. "You're thinking too much! Without me, my team could still win the finale. I have no need to stall you!"

"How's that possible?" Lu Bu frowned. "Shen Gongpao insisted that I would need to destroy you during the finale so that you cannot join the compet.i.tion! How could you possibly give up the entire compet.i.tion? Don't you want your Dragon's Edge anymore?"

"Hehe, if you don't believe me, you can take a look at the group chat!" Chen Xiaobei said.

"Group chat? I'll check it now!" Lu Bu immediately took out his phone.

Right now, the Three Realms Red Envelope Group was in chaos with everyone freaking out.

Bull Demon King: Why is G.o.d Chen still AFK? The compet.i.tion has been going on for so long... he could at least have said something!

G.o.d Erlang: Ugh! Chen Xiaobei must have abandoned the game! He can't win anyway!

Wei Xiaobao: I think something must have happened to G.o.d Chen back on earth. If he loses, then he'll also lose his black saber!

G.o.ddess Zixia: I think so too! I think that G.o.d Chen must have gotten himself into some kind of trouble! The black saber is made by The Prime of Tongtian using Black Demonic Dragon's bones. G.o.d Chen won't give it up so easily!

G.o.d Chejiao: But, even though G.o.d Chen is AFK, the weaka.s.s team keeping it tight! It doesn't seem like they would lose anytime soon!

G.o.d Erlang: It's just a matter of time! There's no castle in this world that would stand forever! Sooner or later, they would lose in this battle!

Tiangong Xingjun: You are right! I have put all my bets on Shen Gongpao's team!

Emperor Zhenwu: Yep! Shen Gongpao's team will win!

Crowd: Shen Gongpao's team will win!

Lu Bu was shocked. "Chen Xiaobei! You... you really are AFK?! What the h.e.l.l are you planning in your mind?!"


Chen Xiaobei replied, "First of all, I've been AFK the whole time. Most people think that something happened to me, and Shen Gongpao would think that you've completed your mission and that you have destroyed me!"

"So what?" Lu Bu c.o.c.ked his head to one side.

"The person Shen Gongpao is most weary of would be me! Right now, he thinks that he's got me, so he would let his guard down! My plan should be implemented now, and I can guarantee you that it's going to be very successful!"

"What in the world have you planned? Stop keeping me on my toes and tell me already!" Lu Bu urged.

Clearly, the messages inside the group chat had Lu Bu believing Chen Xiaobei's words.

If Chen Xiaobei was not confident enough, why would he put his Dragon's Edge up on stake?

"It was just now that when you were fighting my people, I've already asked Monkey King to use the excuse of checking the merit points ledger to hara.s.s Shen Gongpao!" Chen Xiaobei chuckled. "Shen Gongpao is competing in the game so he didn't have time to attend to Monkey King! On top of that, because Shen Gongpao thinks that you've crushed me, he's pa.s.sed the merit points ledger to a young boy under his charge!"

"Merit points ledger? What does that have to do with Diao Chan?" Lu Bu could not understand what Chen Xiaobei was trying to get at.

"Right now, that boy is helping Monkey King to check the merit points ledger. It is just about now that anyone who uses their merit points to wish for blessings can evade Sheng Gongpao's control! I've just contacted Diao Chan and told her to pray to the heavens immediately!"

"Asking Diao Chan to pray? Pray about what?" Lu Bu asked.

"Just now, I sent a Red Envelope of 10 million merit points to Diao Chan. Combined with her own 80 million, and without Shen Gongpao's involvement, she can get a place at the Earth G.o.d's Realm!" Chen Xiaobei explained. "Once, Diao Chan becomes an Earth G.o.d, she can descend to the Earth G.o.d's Realm and receive a chance to cultivate again to become a deity!"

"What?! You gave Diao Chan 10 million merit points?! How is that even possible?" Lu Bu dared not believe Chen Xiaobei's utter generosity.

Diao Chan had pa.s.sed away for nearly 2,000 years now. Even after such a long time, she had only earned 80 million merit points, getting only 40,000 every year!

With Chen Xiaobei sending 10 million merit points to her, would have meant saving Diao Chan 250 years of training.

The sheer value of this Red Envelope was indescribable! That was why Lu Bu dared not believe this to be true!

"I always speak the truth!" Chen Xiaobei answered. "When I sent Diao Chan the merit points, I also sent her a phone! When she arrives at the Earth G.o.d's Realm, she will give me a call. You'll know very soon that I'm not lying to you!"

"I…" Lu Bu was completely stunned.

The expression on his face was tense. He could not believe that Chen Xiaobei would give up 10 million merit points, but at the same time, he had hoped that it was true for that was the only way Diao Chan could truly escape the grasp of Shen Gongpao.

Lu Bu did think of this method but because he thought the merit points ledger was in Shen Gongpao's hand, and Lu Bu himself could not make it happen.

If what Chen Xiaobei said was true, not only would Diao Chan saved, but it would also release Lu Bu as well – both of them would escape Shen Gongpao's control. That was indeed the perfect plan.

Ding Ring Ring!

Chen Xiaobei's phone suddenly rang.

"Here, pick up the phone!" Chen Xiaobei handed the phone over.

Lu Bu accepted the phone and answered the call. Upon hearing the caller's first words, he froze like a mannequin.

Clank!

The Heavenly Halberd slipped from his hand and fell to the ground.

Lu Bu's eyes welled up, all reddened and swollen.
