Realizing the bad condition her father was in, Lu Lingqi helped Hao Meng who was under Xiahou Yuan's relentless assault, after relieving Hao Meng from Xiahou Yuan's attack, they together with Lu Bu began to retreat toward the Western Wall, where Chen Gong and the others are waiting for them while Cao Cao and Liu Bei's men were closing in on them.

Lu Lingqi was helping her father walk down the stairs while Hao Meng and Lu Lingqi's unit was guarding them from Cao Cao and Liu Bei's men's attack, also opening their ways to allow them to leave as fast as they could.

Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, and Zhang Fei who were either stunned or resting finally recuperated their strength, the three of them then chased Lu Bu, Lu Lingqi, and Hao Meng trying to catch them.

In the center of Beihai at the Governor's Castle, Chen Gong was leading the evacuation of Lu Bu's Wife and Lu Bu's retainers family that stayed there, Gao Shun and Cheng Lian helped Chen Gong in directing the families.

Hou Cheng was being treated by a military doctor, while Zhang Liao, Song Xian, and Wei Xu alongside Cao Xing and Bi Chen led Lu Bu's army defending the position from Cao Cao and Liu Bei's men who went after them.

Guan Yu and Xu Chu led the army that pursued Lu Bu's main army alongside Li Dian and Yue Jin, this combined prowess put a lot of pressure on Lu Bu's Army that defended the Governor's Castle.

Fortunately, Lu Bu's army was quick to evacuate Lu Bu's wife and Lu Bu's retainers family, so the pressure they were facing wasn't that long, and when they headed toward the Western Wall, Lu Lingqi, Lu Bu, and Hao Memg alosmgdue Lu Bu's men in their northern wall joined the main army.

When they joined the main army, everyone was surprised to see the condition of Lu Bu as they had never seen Lu Bu this weak and how pale he was, especially Chen Gong who had known Lu Bu for a short time compared to the others.

As Chen Gong learned of Lu Bu's deteriorating condition, he swiftly took charge, directing Lu Lingqi to update him on her father's well-being. The revelation of Lu Bu coughing up more black blood signaled a grave relapse, prompting Chen Gong to order immediate medical attention.

Besides Hou Cheng, Lu Bu received urgent care from skilled physicians, his critical condition demanding delicate treatment. With the medical team working fervently to address both his reopened wound and the resurging poison, Lu Bu's forces rallied around the Eastern Wall under the leadership of his trusted generals.

Facing a relentless assault from Cao Cao and Liu Bei's armies, Lu Bu's forces pressed forward with tenacity, the clash of steel and thunderous war cries echoing through the battlefield.

The Eastern Wall became a focal point of the struggle, with Lu Bu's Generals displaying unwavering resolve in the face of overwhelming odds to reach the Eastern Wall under heavy pursuit.

Meanwhile, on the opposing side, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, flanked by their advisors, strategically advanced toward Beihai. The momentum of their forces had shifted in their favor and the prospect of claiming Beihai now loomed on the horizon.

Cao Cao: "Finally we have managed to take over Beihai from Lu Bu's hand, I think we should reinforce Beihai in case Lie Fan suddenly attacks us."

Liu Bei: "I agree with what Brother Mengde said, it's better that we be prepared rather than having Lie Fan take us by surprise."

Guo Jia: "Hmm I think what My Lord said is correct, Lie Fan is an unstable variant in this battle and we could never think the same as what we previously thought."

Xi Zhicai: "I agree, I never thought that my previous conjecture would come true even though the chance was very small, we shouldn't take the chances."

Ju Shou: "Hmm I thought that we shouldn't be that cautious, Lord Lie Fan is a man of his word, and since we managed to take down Beihai before the time limit I think we will be fine."

Guo Jia: "Master Ju Shou I think we should rely on that reputation, at the end of the day Lie Fan is a Warlord just like My Lord and Lord Liu Bei, his mind can change according to the situation, and don't forget the advisors at his side."

Cao Cao: "I agree with Fengxiao and since Brother Xuande thinks the same as me, then it's in agreement that we will reinforce Beihai in case Lie Fan suddenly attacks and at the same time let our army recuperate after a long battle."

Since Cao Cao said so and Liu Bei agreed with what Cao Cao said, then it was decided that they would reinforce Beihai and their advisors followed the will of the two of them.

While Cao Cao and Liu Bei alongside their retainers entered Beihai, at the Eastern Wall Lu Bu's Army left Beihai through the Eastern Wall while under relentless assault from Cao Cao and Liu Bei's forces.

The combined prowess of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Li Dian, and Yue Jin put a lot of pressure on Lu Bu's army, even though they had Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Cheng Lian, Cao Xing, Song Xian, Wei Xu, and Hao Meng it's not enough to hold them off.

Without Lu Bu supporting them they couldn't hold off Xu Chu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, their prowess was too much for Zhang Liao, Cheng Lian, and Cao Xing to handle even Xu Chu alone took much of Zhang Liao's attention.

Due to this, many of Lu Bu's generals were positioned at the rear, and Chen Gong along with Cao Bao one of the remaining Lu Bu generals led Lu Bu's Army to leave Beihai and headed toward Jimo County.

But their speed was slow due to the onslaught in their rear and at this critical conjecture, Xu Chu managed to thwart Zhang Liao's defense and allow an opening in the rear of Lu Bu's Army to be opened.

This caused chaos to happen in the rear of Lu Bu's Army and because of this Lu Bu's army march was halted because they couldn't leave their rear since many of Lu Bu's generals were in there.

Ignoring the protests of the concerned doctors and Lu Lingqi, Lu Bu, fueled by the urgency of the chaos in his army's rear, rose from his stretcher. The determination in his eyes spoke volumes as he seized his halberd, the lethal weapon that had become synonymous with his prowess on the battlefield.

With a resolute spirit, Lu Bu mounted his legendary steed, the Red Hare, and charged toward the rear of his army. The thunderous hooves and the swift motion of the imposing figure resonated with an unmistakable air of command. Lu Lingqi, catching sight of her father's determined advance, swiftly mounted her horse, urging it to gallop after him calling for him to stop.

Amidst the chaos, Lu Bu's presence injected a renewed sense of purpose into his army. As the formidable trio of Xu Chu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei wreaked havoc, Lu Bu's arrival promised a formidable counterbalance in the rear of his army.

Lu Bu's arrival at the rear of his army ignited a spark of hope among his beleaguered forces. The imposing figure atop the Red Hare, wielding his iconic halberd, symbolized a beacon of resilience amidst the chaos orchestrated by Xu Chu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.

With unwavering determination, Lu Bu set his sights on the disruptive force of Xu Chu. The chaos caused by Xu Chu's onslaught became apparent as he thwarted Zhang Liao's defenses. Lu Bu, with a thunderous charge, directed the Red Hare toward the source of turmoil.

Lu Lingqi, closely following her father, witnessed the relentless pursuit of justice. Her calls for caution echoed against the clamor of battle, but Lu Bu remained steadfast in his quest to confront Xu Chu.

As Lu Bu closed in on the chaos, Xu Chu, sensing the impending danger, turned to face the oncoming storm. A clash of titans ensued, as Xu Chu, armed with his rod hammer, met the sweeping strike of Lu Bu's halberd.

The clash between Lu Bu and Xu Chu reverberated across the battlefield, the thunderous collision of their weapons drawing the attention of generals from both sides. Lu Bu's resolute assault with his halberd met the determined defense of Xu Chu's rod hammer, creating a spectacle that rippled through the chaos.

Amidst the unfolding duel, the distant figures of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, alerted by the sounds of battle, swiftly arrived at the location. The sight of their comrade, Xu Chu, engaged in a fierce duel with Lu Bu prompted an immediate response. The formidable duo joined forces, creating a daunting three-to-one confrontation against Lu Bu.

Undeterred, Lu Lingqi, witnessing her father facing overwhelming odds, charged into the fray in support of Lu Bu. On the other side, Zhang Liao, having recuperated his spirit, rallied to his lord's side, determined to aid Lu Bu against the encroaching threat.

The battlefield became a cauldron of chaos as Lu Bu, Lu Lingqi, and Zhang Liao faced the daunting trio of Xu Chu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei. Each clash unfolded like a volatile symphony, where attack and defense intertwined in a relentless dance of blades and halberds.

Undaunted by the overwhelming odds, Lu Lingqi fought valiantly by her father's side, the duo displaying an unyielding bond. Zhang Liao, having recovered his strength, added his formidable prowess to their defense, creating a stalwart front against the formidable trio.

However, the battlefield dynamic shifted once more as the Xiahou brothers, Dun and Yuan, arrived at the location. Their arrival bolstered the ranks of Xu Chu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, creating a formidable alliance against Lu Bu and his supporters.

Bout after bout unfolded each exchange a testament to the martial prowess of these legendary warriors. Amid the intense confrontation, Lu Bu, pushing his body to its limits, suddenly coughed up another bout of black blood. The unexpected sight sent a ripple of surprise through Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan, momentarily disrupting the rhythm of the battle.

Fighting through the pain and drawing strength from the depths of his legendary might, Lu Bu unleashed a ferocious assault that left Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan momentarily stunned. The battlefield quivered as Lu Bu's halberd cleaved through the air with unparalleled force, each strike a testament to his indomitable spirit.

Xu Chu, caught off guard by the sudden surge of power, struggled to parry Lu Bu's relentless onslaught. Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan, despite their formidable skills, found themselves momentarily disabled under the overwhelming force of Lu Bu's strikes.

The tide of the battle shifted, as Lu Lingqi, Zhang Liao, and the remnants of Lu Bu's forces seized the opportunity created by their leader's burst of strength. The clash unfolded in a flurry of steel and determination, the outcome hanging in the balance as Lu Bu fought with unparalleled resilience against the formidable trio fighting through the pain that was coursing through his body due to the poison.
