The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms
Chapter 14 Liu Bang's Death
After finalizing the plan to open the restaurant, Lu Yao had Gao Yao stay at the Lu residence first.
Soon, under Lu Yao's financial offensive, a restaurant called Denggaolou opened in Xianyang.
Lu Yao didn't need to worry about managing the restaurant's kitchen. He could have Gao Yao train a few more reliable apprentices to prepare for opening a branch in the future.
They also hired a temporary manager from the brokerage firm to oversee the restaurant, to be replaced later when a trustworthy person was found.
Lu Yao also bought dozens of orphans from a brokerage firm, intending to take them to Pei County for secret training.
All of this is proceeding in an orderly manner. Now that we've come to the Qin Dynasty, it would be unreasonable not to fight for the world.
Lu Yao stayed in Xianyang for about a month before leading a large group of people to Pei County.
His purpose in going to Pei County was twofold: first, to marry Lü Su, and second, to deal with Liu Bang and nip the future Emperor Gaozu of Han in the bud.
Because Lu Yao's group was large and he had hired many guards, no bandits dared to rob them.
When Lu Yao and his party arrived in Pei County, Lord Lü had already sent people to welcome them.
"My dear son-in-law, was your journey smooth?"
Lu Gong smiled and led Lu Yao into the mansion.
Lu Su was also waiting for Lu Yao inside the mansion, her big, watery eyes staring straight at him.
Lu Yao smiled and winked at Lü Su, making the young girl blush and dare not look at him again.
"Thank you for your concern, father-in-law. Have a safe journey."
Lu Yao said with a smile.
The group then entered the welcoming banquet. The guards and servants who had come with Lu Yao had also been provided with food and drink, but they were not with them.
There weren't many people at Lu Yao's table, just Lu Gong and his two daughters. Although the number of people was small, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Lu Gong and Lu Yao chatted from time to time, while Lu Su sat beside Lu Yao, pouring him wine.
"Young Master Lu, I wonder where Xiao Chuan is now?"
Lü Zhi finally couldn't hold back and asked Lu Yao.
"Something happened to Xiaochuan; he should be at the border now."
Lu Yao looked at Lü Zhi; she was truly deeply in love.
Lu Yao then told the group that Liu Bang had taken Yi Xiaochuan to take on corvée labor.
"How could Liu Bang do such a thing!"
Empress Lü was furious after hearing this.
"Isn't Xiaochuan his sworn brother? Why would he do this?"
Lu Gong frowned, surprised that he had misjudged the person.
"Actually, the reason is not hard to guess."
As Lu Yao spoke, he looked at Lü Zhi.
Lü Zhi was taken aback; this was actually related to her.
"Liu Bang asked Xiao Chuan to act as matchmaker to his father-in-law, which naturally meant he was interested in Zhi Jie. Since Zhi Jie didn't like him, he probably thought it was because of Xiao Chuan."
Lu Yao explained to the group.
The group remained silent for a long time.
"Xiao Chuan is quick-witted, so naturally he'll be fine."
Lu Yao offered Lü Zhi a few words of comfort.
After the banquet, Lü Su accompanied Lu Yao for a walk within the mansion.
"Susu, have you missed me these days?"
Lu Yao smiled gently, took Lü Su's hand, and said softly.
Lu Su looked shy and did not break free from Lu Yao's large hand.
Seeing Lü Su's shy appearance, Lu Yao pulled her into his arms.
"what!"
Lu Su gasped in surprise, startled. She resisted slightly, but then gave in to Lu Yao.
"Susu misses you very much, young master."
Lu Su gently rested her head on Lu Yao's chest, placed her small hand on the large hand on her slender waist, and whispered something.
Lü Su liked this feeling very much; it made her feel safe.
Lu Yao didn't say anything more, and just held the beauty in his arms.
.......
After several days of preparation, the entire Lü residence was filled with a festive red ambiance.
Lu Gong chose an auspicious day to prepare for the wedding of Lu Yao and Lu Su.
Meanwhile, Lu Yao had already found Liu Bang in hiding.
It turns out that Liu Bang saw Lu Yao when he entered Pei County that day.
Liu Bang was unsure whether Lu Yao knew that he had used Yi Xiaochuan and Gao Yao to take the place of corvée labor, but he felt that the relationship between the three was not ordinary.
So, just in case, he hid to see what was going on, but Lu Yao still managed to find him.
"Liu Bang! Xiao Chuan swore brotherhood with you, how could you, as the elder brother, harm him like this!"
Using Yi Xiaochuan as an excuse, Lu Yao coldly stared at Liu Bang.
Liu Bang swallowed hard, realizing he had been exposed after all.
"Two people ran away to do corvée labor. What could I do? They wouldn't die from doing corvée labor. If we lost a man, we would all be sentenced to death!"
Liu Bang looked at Lu Yao with righteous indignation.
Lu Yao didn't want to hear his reasons; killing doesn't need a reason.
"Enough with the nonsense. Go tell the King of Hell your reasons. I'm only responsible for sending you to meet him!"
Lu Yao didn't want to waste words with him. He drew his long sword, its sharp blade flashing as it pierced towards Liu Bang.
Liu Bang quickly drew his sword to parry, but his martial arts skills were not particularly strong; he could only barely wield a sword.
He could block one attack, but he couldn't stop Lu Yao's second.
Lu Yao stepped down and quickly approached Liu Bang, his long sword flashing like a phantom as he slashed at his vital points.
In a flash of light, Liu Bang knelt down, staring intently at Lu Yao.
"My ambitions haven't been fulfilled yet, how can I die here!"
Liu Bang knelt on the ground, supporting himself with a long sword. His hand holding the sword trembled violently, and he eventually collapsed and died.
At the moment of Liu Bang's death, the Haotian Pearl within Lu Yao's body emitted a fluctuation, but it was a large amount of world origin that he gained.
This is tantamount to directly severing the mythical world of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, even without the Han Dynasty, other dynasties would have emerged, so the impact wouldn't be significant.
At the same time, Haotian Pearl also sent a message that people like Liu Bang and Xiang Yu could be killed, and even Qin Shi Huang could be killed.
However, the chosen one of the world's destiny cannot be touched, otherwise the world will reject him. Getting a toothache while drinking water is a minor matter; a bolt of heavenly lightning would kill him instantly.
Liu Bang's death brought Lu Yao almost 20% of the world's origin, and now the Haotian Pearl contains more than 30% of the world's origin. He can even leave the mythological world and return to the modern world directly.
"Since Yi Xiaochuan cannot be killed, then let him become my tool for conquering the mythical world."
Lu Yao gazed intently toward the Great Wall in the north, as if he could see Yi Xiaochuan a thousand miles away.
Yi Xiaochuan, who was building the Great Wall on the border, felt a chill and instinctively wrapped his clothes tighter.
The origin of the world can be used to enhance talents and power. Lu Yao directly infused himself with 20% of the origin of the world through the Haotian Pearl.
A faint white light emanated from Lu Yao's body, gradually enveloping him. Lu Yao felt refreshed and his mind became much clearer.
As the white light gradually dissipated, Lu Yao's appearance remained unchanged, except that his demeanor had become even more ethereal.
Picking up the longsword, Lu Yao exerted a little force, and the longsword instantly shattered into two halves.
Lu Yao's strength has increased significantly, but he has not lost control of it. His control is meticulous, and he estimates that he can now lift several hundred kilograms.
Thinking about his own strength, Lu Yao couldn't help but think of Xiang Yu, wondering who would be superior to Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King of Western Chu.
