Zhao Yun

Morning arrived and with it the end of chaos that swallowed the governor palace. When the people peak out of their homes and see that nothing suspicious was near them. Everyone begin to come out and made their way to the source of where all those screams coming from last night.

For the ones that was closer to the chaos they can't help but throw up whatever they have inside them because the scene in front of them was brutal. Blood was everywhere around the palace with mutilated corpses laying around here and there. The stench of blood was so strong that it made some weaker people faint and have to be brought back by their companions.

The garrison troops due to being hindered didn't arrived until everything was already settled and now all they can do was try to clean up the mess and hopefully find some survivors. But instead of survivors, they found two headless corpses in different areas that caused the troops to drop on their knees and cry.

On the body of the corpses was the crest of the lord and his daughter which the troops identified immediately.

When the announcement was made to the public two days later, everyone mourn for the loss of their beloved governor who have always put the wellbeing of his people before anything else. They were able to have a peaceful and good life thanks to him. News of Sima Yin death was spread at a frightening speed as all of the villages and towns nearby have heard of it.

Within the tavern of a nearby town was Chen Hu who dress in a cape that cover his face, upon hearing the news of his lord demise from a group sitting not too far from him. The man entire body shakes for a good while before he can manage to stabilize his emotions.

'The lord is dead? IMPOSSIBLE! Lu Bian was with him, unless…..'

His line of thought stopped immediately as he couldn't bring himself to think of the possibility that Lu Bian could have betray their lord because his life was also given by the lord!

'I will find out soon enough, the pressing matter right now is to find her grace while the enemy thinks that she is dead. She should have arrived here at Shibi Town by now.'

Thinking up to their, the man got up after leaving his payment on the table and walks out of the tavern. Ironically, a few moments after his departure a young man around the age of eighteen walks in holding a spear. If the man decided to stay a little longer then he would have find clues about his lord daughter from the young man but fate play a cruel joke on us all.

The young man was handsome, tall, strong build, and a fierce yet heroic aura to him came up to the counter. The only downside was the way he dress, the young man was dress in animal fur looking like a hunter which are looked down upon since they are poor but what people don't know is that this young man is not just any hunter.

"Waiter, I need you to prepare some food and put it into this basket."

"What kind of food would you like customer?"

"Any that a lady would like to eat, I heard this tavern have the best food that's why I came."

"Please wait over there, I will get the food ready for you."

Although the waiter was skeptical about whether or not the young man can pay for his food, he still went to relay the order since if the young man can't pay then they would just throw him out then eat the food themselves.

Patiently waiting for his food which he has ordered thirty minutes ago the young man still wasn't angry as he overheard the conversations from the nearby table which are similar to those being spoken outside in the streets by almost everyone. Thinking back to what the little miss back at his house said, the young man decided to gather some information as he got up and walked over to the other table.

"Excuse me gentlemen but did you say that the lord of Vukong City is dead along with his daughter?"

"Yes young man, a few days ago there was a great disturbance in Vukong City as the lord palace was attacked by unknown assailant and everyone inside died. The soldiers that enter the palace found two headless bodies of whom they identified as the lord Sima Yin himself and his young daughter Mei Yin."

"Have the head been found by any chance?"

"No, not that we know off"

"Sir! Your food is ready!"

The young man was going to inquire further but was interrupted by the waiter but he just chuckled before saying thanks to the people who kindly enough to answer his questions. Turning around the young man walks up to the waiter, pull out a silver ingot and place it on the counter which greatly stunning the waiter.

"This should be enough for the food and for the rest, you can just get more food and drinks for those men over there."

Pointing at the men at a table behind him, the young man grab his basket of food and leaves but before he take the last step out. The same men at the table stopped him and the way they address him change as well.

"Little brother, we can't possibly accept that! The remaining money after your payment is still a good sum of money! Since the food only cost around 400 brawn coins at best! When a single silver ingot worth 1000 brawn coins!"

Seeing the men trying to explain to him with a flustered look, the young man just shakes it off with a smile.

"Just take it as my thank you for your information earlier, if you already call me little brother then we are brothers! Their no need to be so modest haha."

Hearing what the young man in front of them said, all the men smiled and no longer trying to persuade him.

"If it not much to ask little brother, what is your name?"

"My name is Zhao Yun! And what should I address you brothers?"

"My name is Guan Yu, this over here is Zhang Fei, and lastly the older brother in our group is Liu Bei."

After introducing themselves and bide their farewells, the two side separated but what they don't know is that their fate from that moment on have already link with each other because of a single girl.
