Working as a prime minister was a tough lifestyle. Li Feihong had to go through complaints and faulty accusations on a daily basis as he cleaned up for Dong Bai’s mess.

  Yet, he never complained or voiced his opinion. Li Feihong was a happy man.

  After the grand war between their forces and the western alliance, Li Feihong married Lu Lingqi and took her in as his concubine.

  With two beautiful wives, Zhang Min and Lu Lingqi, he was living a dream life.

  After he got his 10th wing, Diaochan released him from his subordination. He was free to cultivate his 11th wing.

  However, Li Feihong didn’t try to get his 11th wing right away. He reviewed the demonic path and tried to get rainbow wings like his two sons.

  One of them was Lu Bu’s son, but the other was Zhang Min and Li Feihong’s son.

  A couple years were enough for Li Feihong’s rigorous research. He managed to cultivate both paths and got himself 10 rainbow wings, which became a target of envy by other generals.

  Lu Lingqi pestered Li Feihong to open a sect to teach everybody. Then, no one could complain about his newfound power.

  Li Feihong refused. Instead, he gave his techniques to Zhang Jiao, who already had a sect that was supporting the royal family.

  This angered Lu Lingqi. She got into a fight with Li Feihong, which ended up in divorce.

  Lu Lingqi returned to Lu Bu and lived a solitary life afterward, but she hoped that Li Feihong would visit her and beg for forgiveness.

  Yet, the dimwit Li Feihong couldn’t understand a woman’s thoughts. He went into depression, which interrupted his cultivation momentum. He failed to notice that his wife was waiting for him.

  Then, the dragon arrived.

  Li Feihong and Zhang Min tagged along with Tong and Medusa since they had 10 wings. Surprisingly, Himiko expressed that she wanted to stay behind with Dong Bai, so they could maintain the empire and ensure its safety from foreign invasion.

  The festival was an eye-opener for Li Feihong and the crews. All overlords from various universes displayed their imagination, cheat skills, and supreme cultivation strength.

  Li Feihong took notes that the highest cultivation base was 20 wings, but the grand emperor only had 14 wings. It seemed that in the latter stages, it was a competition of foundation and system skills. Only ones who took their time reinforcing their foundation won the race.

  This inspired Li Feihong that he might be able to defeat stronger foes. He planned to return home and visit Lu Bu to ask for a spar, and he might as well reconcile with Lu Lingqi.

  Unfortunately, the creator appeared and challenged Medusa and Tong into a fight. She even allowed everyone to take part in their handicap battle.

  Li Feihong didn’t hesitate when Tong and Medusa jumped into the planetary stage.

  The battle was a new experience for all participants. Li Feihong wasn’t the only one who gained something from observing other overlords fighting as Sun Shangxiang, Zhang Min, Zhang Ying, and Liu Yang coordinated their teamwork and pinned a stronger foe to a corner.

  Li Feihong used his warp gates and his tanky self-resurrection to confuse the creator. But that trick didn’t last long.

  When the creator summoned a massive black hole, she disabled Li Feihong’s self-revive skill since the lifespan drain was his kryptonite.

  Li Feihong didn’t have enough lifespan to resurrect anymore. Still, he didn’t give up.

  \r \r \r

  Li Feihong used his last few remaining years to open a large portal and pushed half of the fairy dragon’s body into it.

  Then, he closed it!

  The theory worked as Li Feihong had predicted. The dragon’s body was cut in half.

  Half of her lower parts stayed in Li Feihong’s world, while the rest was still on the stage!

  Still, Li Feihong was out of lifespan. He was helpless in this battle.

  Suddenly, Tong used his authority to manipulate his skill. He shoved everyone into Li Feihong’s world and closed it.

  When Li Feihong came to his senses, Tong’s soul and Morning Star’s soul entered his world. That was enough to tell a story of what had happened.

  Zhang Min and Zhang Ying wailed uncontrollably as they blamed themselves for their powerlessness.

  Sun Shangxiang was indifferent since she had once experienced a reincarnation. She believed that Tong would be back in a few years. Still, she was annoyed that she had to wait again before she could be together with him.

  Liu Yang screamed in frustration. She, too, had the same thoughts as Sun Shangxiang.

  Everyone returned home, dejected.

  But when Li Feihong heard that Tong could be reincarnated into this world again, he was delighted.

  Unknowingly, Li Feihong resumed his lifestyle as if nothing had happened. He also reconciled with Lu Lingqi and brought her back to his dimension again.

  Li Feihong and Lu Lingqi had a child as a result. However, twisted development ensued.

  Medusa reincarnated Tong as Li Feihong’s son!

  As soon as Tong opened his eyes again in this world, he smiled at Li Feihong and uttered the first words, using the help of his force circulation knowledge to replace his vocal cord.

  "What’s up, bitch?"

  Lu Lingqi refused to raise Tong as she hated him. She dumped Li Feihong yet again.

  Li Xin and Li Huang, the two sons of Li Feihong, danced in joy as their new brother was once the legendary emperor Zhang Tong. They looked forward to assisting this former emperor.

  Li Feihong had a headache. He couldn’t name Tong as [Li Tong] as it might anger Tong’s subordinates.

  For the sake of staying neutral, Li Feihong named Tong as [Xian Tong], using the word – Xian – as the Immortal Xian.

  [Zhang Tong] might have died, but [Xian Tong] replaced him. Funny enough, Tong’s former wives expressed that they wanted to raise him.

  It baffled Li Feihong that they wanted to keep Tong. Since it was impropriated to keep Tong around, he gave him to the concubines.

  Again, Li Feihong angered Zhang Min and Lu Lingqi. This time, Zhang Min dumped him.

  Li Feihong was confused, questioned his wives what he had done wrong. Unfortunately, Lu Lingqi and Zhang Min didn’t talk to him again.

  Sad and depressed about his marriage life, Li Feihong abandoned everything and cultivated like a mad man.

  A thousand years later, another festival invitation arrived.

  Li Feihong entered the festival again as a changed man. He wielded 16 rainbow wings, which was the same rank as the creator. Although Lilith, Medusa, Lu Bu, and a few curious generals took part in it this time, Li Feihong ended up taking the spotlight.

  Li Feihong jumped into the first competition without caring about what reward was placed on the pedestal. He fought without caring for his life and slain a thousand cultivators and dragons with various strength alone.

  He won the first battle, but Li Feihong went insane. He jumped into the next fight without rest.

  Again, he won. At that point, all dragons’ attention was on Li Feihong and his madness.

  The grand emperor got amused. He put his crown on the pedestal, placing his throne on the line. He also jumped into the planet stage to challenge all greedy dragons if they desired his throne.

  Once more, Li Feihong jumped into the battle. However, no dragon dared to interfere with this madness.

  This time, Li Feihong got beaten black and blue, but the emperor didn’t kill him. Instead, he gave the throne to Li Feihong to reward his madness bravery.

  The grand emperor said that he wanted to retire from this festival thingies, so he left it to a madman like Li Feihong. He mocked the latter that he was looking forward to the future festivals under his reign.

  Li Feihong got back to his senses a few days later. When he found out that someone had entrusted a difficult task for him again, he wailed.

  "WRRRRYYYYYYYY!!!" ……

  Many festivals took place under Li Feihong’s competition formats. Instead of auction-like battles, Li Feihong used tournament templates, round-robin templates, soccer templates, and even ladder templates in mobile games’ PVP system.

  Every festival was no longer the same. It sparked interests from more dragons and cultivators in various universes, including the former emperor.

  As a supreme being with an almighty system, Li Feihong created random nonsensical items as rewards – Zombie Virus, Timefreezing watch, realistic attachable male genital for girls, iPhone666, or a collection of dragon art from human worlds.

  As madness as it looked, many lunatic dragons desired those items. They didn’t complain as they participated in the tournaments in earnest.

  One of the festivals, Lilith and Medusa asked Li Feihong to set up a trap to kill the creator.

  Li Feihong did just that. He put a new reward, a blank body with 20-rainbow-wing physical strength, into a special tournament with an expensive entrance fee. All participants had to pay five billion years of lifespan to join.

  However, Li Feihong didn’t take any from Lilith. He also allowed her to hide an assistant within her dragon body before the game had started.

  The creator took the bait and joined. She ended up fighting Lilith.

  Lilith successfully killed the creator, avenging for her previous death. However, Li Feihong had to ban her for ten future festivals as she violated the rules in front of other dragons.

  Medusa was also satisfied with the result despite that the creator’s soul managed to reincarnate into another blank body. She returned to her universe and never participated in another festival again.

  Li Feihong visited the creator, who was now a powerless girl. Thinking that this girl might cause trouble if he left her alone, Li Feihong tricked her into joining Lilim’s universe to recuperate from her loss of power.

  Currently, at Lilim’s universe, several thousand years had passed, and many habitable worlds had changed. Tong’s subordinates and his civilians migrated to Zhang Jiao’s sub-dimension and abandoned the old world. They moved into Xian Tong’s new domain, [Old Heaven], a renamed universe, which the creator had placed as a bet in the first festival. It was also the domain where Heaven and Hell used to exist.

  As for the current Lilim’s domain, Li Feihong renamed it as……

  Lilim Heritage Online

  Lilith was now the administrator of this universe. Li Feihong was sure that Lilith would have a good time torturing her nemesis in here.

  Li Feihong forgot that Tong’s cursed children ran rampant in this universe. By the time that he discovered the new mess, Lilith already created multiple sub-dimensions and almost destroyed everything for the sake of playing with her nemesis.

  Also, Medusa sent him a warning message as she had discovered a piece of pressing news.

  Morning Star had reincarnated into Lilim’s universe. It was likely that the two would run into each other again.

  Chapter 552 - Epilogueception (6) (300 Years East-West War Part 1)

  Chapter 552 – Epilogueception (6) (300 Years East-West War Part 1)

  Tong’s life was good after he trapped Ping’s soul in a dung beetle and put him in a glass box. He believed that Ping got what he deserved – eating shit for the rest of eternity.

  Guan Yu pledged to Li Feihong as expected, but the former joined Tong’s ranks later as Li Feihong forced him to.

  Tong admired how Li Feihong was so loyal despite his ambitious instinct. He wanted to give Li Feihong another daughter of his to reward his loyalty. Unfortunately, Zhang Min threatened to sever ties with Tong, so he backed off.

  Tong officially married Sun Shangxiang the next year. She was so happy that she cried during the ceremony.

  However, on their first night, Sun Shangxiang did what she wanted to do for years, castrating Tong.

  All male palace officials laughed and saluted to Sun Shangxiang as they wanted to do what she did. She satisfied everyone who was tired of Tong’s loud night activities.

  But they changed their mind and felt sorry for Tong the next day. Sun Shangxiang stuffed all Tong’s severed regenerated genitals and put them as her room decorations.

  The number of Tong’s things was shocking – 666.

  When the officials saw Tong’s pale complexion and withered skin. They cried and begged Sun Shangxiang not to torture their emperor as he looked too pitiful.

  Sun Shangxiang stopped torturing Tong afterward, but she demanded extra time with Tong. He had to skip work and be with her to make up for their lost time.

  Diaochan allowed Sun Shangxiang to monopolize him by giving a special schedule for her, once-a-week. The latter didn’t know that others also had similar schedules. ……

  Zhen Ji and Himiko joined Tong’s harem later on. Diaochan arranged Tong’s schedule as the followings;

  Dong Bai – Once a week.

  Diaochan – Once a week.

  Sun Shangxiang – Once a week.

  Lilim – Once a week.

  Liu Yang – Once a week.

  Du Shi – Once a month + daytime outdoor play.

  Cai Wenji – Once a month.

  Da Qiao / Xiao Qiao – Twice a month + 3P play.

  Cao Qinghe – Once a month.

  Cao Xian – Retired – No schedule.

  Himiko – Once a month.

  Wu Guotai – Once a month.

  Four weeks, 27 days, all Tong’s schedule was set in stone, and nobody could change it. No concubine complained about it either. ……

  The surprise return of Pu Jing brought Tong a new headache. At first, Tong put Pu Jing to clean up his mess and manage the Silk Road.

  However, The Romans and the Sassanid thought that Tong sent Pu Jing to ruin their countries. They sent an envoy to demand compensation or they would declare war.

  Of course, Tong killed the envoy and sent it back to mock the aggressive empires.

  However, Diaochan and Zhuge Liang informed Tong that it was a trick of Septimius Severus, the Roman emperor. Tong was framed and the Romans used this excuse to gather allies to invade China.

  \r \r \r

  Pu Jing also described the culture of the west cultivators. Unlike them who emphasized solid foundation, they focused on the number of 8-wing angels and demons over the quality. As such, aristocrat families sacrificed many slaves to increase their lifespan, giving their children more chances to become elite immortals with 8 wings.

  The number of 8-wing cultivators in the west was a staggering 100!

  Many officials wanted to delete the Roman army with his system authority, but Tong mysteriously refused. He said that it would leave bad karma on him, and it would weaken his cultivation strength.

  Without a choice, everyone dropped the admin power out of their chess piece. Tong mobilized everyone instead.

  The Sun Clan

  The Cao Clan

  The Xiahou Clan

  Guan Yu

  Zhang Liao

  Zhang He

  Xu Huang

  Zhao Yun

  Huang Zhong

  Lu Bu

  Dian Wei

  Xu Chu

  Ma Chao

  Over one million soldiers, whose strength was between 2 to 4 wings, gathered at to contest against the upcoming Western Army.

  The West Alliance prepared a million cultivators with 4 wings and 100 8-wing cultivators. Severus went all-out to destroy the East Empires.

  However, the quality between the east and the west was different. All great generals had at least 8 wings while some of the royal families, such as Tong, Lilim, Diaochan, Li Feihong, and even Sun Quan, were rocking 10 wings.

  Zuo Ci acted as the East’s diplomat. He negotiated with Severus to stop this senseless war.

  Severus refused and attempted to kill Zuo Ci.

  Zuo Ci was offended. He killed a few generals of Severus and returned to inform his failure to Tong.

  The 300-Year East-West War took place afterward and was recorded in this world history.

  Pu Jing took full responsibility for this war. With the help of Tong’s quality generals, he led the Wei Han Legion to attack Rome.

  Ten millions of civilians died in the crossfire. Less than ten western cultivators managed to scrap their lives back home.

  Some of Tong’s elite generals died during the war. ……

  = Zhang He / The Ghost Legion =

  Zhang He brought fear to his enemies and was nicknamed as the ghost of the battlefields. With his 8 wings and his geography insight, his unit of 50,000 cavalries decimated northern European and British Isle cities. He killed 20 8-wing cultivators alone by assassinating them in the dark while his army routed over 100,000 Immortal Praetorian Guards of the Roman Army.

  Unfortunately, while trying to kill his 21st target, he ran into the only 10-wing cultivator of the west and a strategist that no otherworlder could believe that he should be here in this period.

  The cultivator was the emperor Severus himself, and his strategist called himself as the reincarnation of a great person - Hannibal Barca.

  Zhang He, Xun You, Qu Yi, Gao Lan, and Han Hao were killed. Out of 50,000 soldiers, only a thousand managed to return home and informed Tong of the disastrous campaign.

  Tong sent all these loyal officers’ soul to the karma river, and used the system authority to reincarnate them as his descendants. These men rejoined the war in the later years, carrying Zhang surnames and the royalty banners.

  All of them lived on and saw the end of the long war. They moved to Zhang Jiao’s dimension several hundred years later after the first festival started. ……

  = Zhang Liao, the Invincible Rider =

  During the first few years of the East-West War, Zhang Liao took the vanguard role to spearhead against Sassanid and Kushan’s coordinating invasion.

  Sassanid and Kushan bribed their ways through the Xiongnu territories and attacked China from the north. The massive army of 500,000 soldiers reached China’s northern borders.

  Tian Yu, Wei Yan, and Liu Xie, who were protecting the Pyongyang, were attacked by the coalition of three Korea kingdoms. Combined with the surprise attack of Hannibal Barca, Tian Yu, Wei Yan, and Liu Xie were killed.

  Severus breached into the You Province, but they ran into Lu Bu Army.

  Lu Bu used the familiarity of the terrain and drove Hannibal’s forces back outside of the great wall. But more roman, Sassanid, and Kushan’s soldiers kept pouring onto the battlefield.

  The northern land was mostly prairie, so Guo Jia sent Zhang Liao and Lu Bu along with 100,000 Red Hare Riders to push back against their attack.

  For the first time, Guo Jia and Hannibal Barca competed in their troops maneuvering skills. However, Guo Jia had the upper hands as his soldiers possessed advanced weapons and a firmer foundation.

  Lu Bu immediately routed Sassanid Army and Kushan Army. He pushed the battle back further into the Xiongnu land.

  Guo Jia placed Zhang Liao behind to protect the supply fortress, so Lu Bu Army’s chain of supply wouldn’t be cut off.

  However, Hannibal sent air forces of 100,000 4-wing cultivators from Kushan’s remnants to bomb Zhang Liao’s supply camps, using Tong’s old tactic, oil barrels, and fire.

  Facing against airborne units, Zhang Liao wasn’t afraid. He deployed make-shift AA battalions, created by system skills. Tong also adjusted Red Hare’s genes and made them into flyable horses to surprise the invaders.

  Zhang Liao led the 2,000 Flying Red Hare unit and challenged the cultivator army in the sky while the rifle squads released hell to the sky.

  Getting out-teched, Hannibal retreated his air unit, but he drew Zhang Liao away from the base. While he was retreating, he sent another underground unit, which had been digging for 5 kilometers to ambush Zhang Liao’s camps from below.

  The moles suddenly appeared when Zhang Liao was away. The camps were burnt to the ground, and some of the modern rifles were stolen. The ambush unit also successfully retreated before Zhang Liao could return to kill them all.

  At the end of the raid, Lu Bu Army’s supply ran out while Zhang Liao’s bases were destroyed. However, Hannibal paid a heavy price of 50,000 lives for this result.

  Zhang Liao Army suffered much fewer casualties as Hannibal only targeted structures and supplies. Five thousand of his troops died.

  However, they got into a predicament the next day. As their ammunition, weapons, and food were destroyed, Hannibal used this chance and isolated Lu Bu. He pushed Lu Bu Army to Siberian, aka modern world Russia.

  Lu Bu’s soldiers were forced to retreat back home by flight and abandon their precious warhorses and cannons. However, Lu Bu pressed back against Hannibal’s weak soldiers and slain over 100,000 men by himself.

  But that was Hannibal’s trap. Septimius Severus brought 20 8-wing cultivators and 1,000 6-wing demons to hunt down Lu Bu.

  Lu Bu killed 500 demons, but their soul-detonation injured him. He was on the verge of being defeated.

  But then, Zhang Liao led a small task force of 800 flying riders, breaking through Severus’ elite praetorian army.

  Zhang Liao saved Lu Bu, who was on the verge of death despite being a 10-wing angel. During the fight, Zhang Liao awakened his 9th and 10th wing, becoming another powerhouse. His warcry, [I am Zhang Liao!], frightened every roman soldier he came across.

  Severus saw that his troops suffered too many casualties because of these two men. He decided not to push his luck and didn’t pursue Zhang Liao’s task force.

  The next day, Severus regretted his decision. Zhang Liao came out again with his flying red hare unit and dropped Pu Jing’s newest creation, a napalm bomb, onto the roman legions.

  While Severus Army was in confusion, Zhang Liao got close to Severus and almost killed him. Unfortunately, by Severus’ side, another veteran general, Quintus Anicius Faustus, who had conquered half of the Africa Continent, protected and escorted his liege out of the danger zone.

  Anicius Faustus was similar to Zhang Liao. He got his 10th wing during the war.

  Zhang Liao and Anicius Faustus got into a duel. Both injured each other, but Zhang Liao had the advantage of weapon choices. His modern rifle and his HE grenades crippled Faustus and Severus, which forced them to run for their lives.

  Zhang Liao didn’t pursue since he managed to destroy Severus’ main forces in Xiongnu and Siberian regions. Severus also retreated his tattered army back to Rome to recuperate from the loss.

  During the northern campaign, Severus brought over 500,000 alliance soldiers while Lu Bu and Zhang Liao had 100,000 men.

  The alliance army’s casualty rate was 80%. Most of Lu Bu’s soldiers also died, but Zhang Liao only lost a couple ten thousand men. During the rescue napalm-bomb-charge, he didn’t even lose a single man, which became a new legend.

  Zhang Liao returned home as a hero. Soldiers, civilians, merchants, and scholars retold Zhang Liao’s feat in the battles for generations.

  Zhang Liao participated in a counterattack campaign in the middle-east later on, but most of his enemies surrendered because they were afraid of his fame.

  After the 300 Years War, Zhang Liao succeeded Li Feihong’s Supreme Commander Position. He married one of Tong’s daughters and held great influence in the court.

  Just like others, he and his men migrated to Zhang Jiao’s dimension years later. He never returned to this world again.

  Chapter 553 - Epilogueception (7) (300 Years East-West War Part 2)

  Chapter 553 – Epilogueception (7) (300 Years East-West War Part 2)

  = Lu Bu =

  After the country unification, Lu Bu resumed his work as the grand commander to the Red Hare Legion.

  Due to the authority conflict between Zhang Liao and Lu Bu, Zhang Liao got a new army of his own, which dissatisfied Lu Bu as he wanted to use his former subordinate.

  He got into the fight with Tong several times, but Lu Bu couldn’t beat Tong anymore despite having the same cultivation base, 10 wings.

  Lu Bu isolated himself to cultivate some more, but he reached the bottleneck because of his immortal oaths. He could not raise his strength more than 10 wings unless Lilim released him from her subordination.

  Lu Bu visited Lilim and begged her to release him. However, she refused. The brainwashed girl wanted to keep Lu Bu in check for her husband, so she kept him as it was.

  The god of war quit his job after that. He retired and returned to Jinyang to live with his father, Ding Yuan.

  Years passed. The East-West War began.

  Because of the emergency, Tong summoned Lu Bu back and returned his position. To compensate for his service, Lilim voided Lu Bu’s oath, and allow him to cultivate more wings.

  Delighted by the war and the freedom, Lu Bu returned to the battlefield with his father, Gao Shun, and other commanders.

  The first battle he fought was the Southern Xiongnu Defensive Campaign. Guo Jia sent Lu Bu and Zhang Liao’s unit to fend off against Severus Army and the coalition forces from Kushan and Sassanid.

  As prideful as Lu Bu was, he didn’t listen to Guo Jia or Ju Shou, who were supposed to assist him on stratagem and troops placement. Lu Bu allocated his best units and dumped all weaker soldiers to Zhang Liao before he rushed out to kill his enemies.

  Ding Yuan, Lu Bu, and Gao Shun massacred and routed Sasanian and Kushan Army with ease due to Tong’s advanced weapons, such as modern rifles, night goggles, grenades, and 20 year-worth of food in Lu Bu’s new [Inventory] skill, bestowed by Tong.

  With such supplies, Lu Bu got c.o.c.kier. He charged at Severus Army head-on.

  Little did he know that it was Hannibal’s schemes. Severus drew Lu Bu’s forces into Siberian and isolated him during winter. The coordination between Hannibal and Severus stopped Lu Bu’s momentum, and they killed both Ding Yuan and Gao Shun during the counterattack. At the same time, he sent his main forces to strike Zhang Liao to destroy Lu Bu’s main supply base.

  When Lu Bu heard that his father was killed and Zhang Liao’s base was destroyed, he sent his forces back home and fought against Severus on his own, planning to kill as many soldiers as he could to avenge for his father’s death.

  He ran into another trap. Severus and elite cultivators surrounded him.

  Desperately, Lu Bu fought to save his own skin. He lost count how many men he killed, but they kept self-detonating before they died.

  Fortunately, Zhang Liao busted him out of trouble. Lu Bu returned home with a humiliating defeat.

  Angry and sad, Lu Bu got depressed. He isolated himself and cultivated like a mad man. Yet, he couldn’t progress further as he didn’t have an oath subordinate.

  When Lu Bu heard that his father and Gao Shun could reincarnate with Tong’s system power, he recovered. He reflected on his mistake and asked Tong for another chance to lead troops against Severus.

  However, the war had already tipped to their favor at that time, thanks to Pu Jing, Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang, Jia Xu, and the navy forces of the Sun Clan. Tong didn’t need to deploy more troops or send Lu Bu to the battle again.

  Yet, after seeing Lu Bu’s enthusiasm, Tong allowed Lu Bu to fight again, but he was not allowed to lead any unit. Lu Bu had to fight on his own.

  The good news was – Lu Bu could do anything he wanted or roam the battlefields. However, he couldn’t command soldiers.

  Lu Bu agreed. He traveled west, searching for a battlefield that he could fight. Also, he planned to kill Severus and Hannibal, who killed many of his men and his father.

  Jia Xu learned that Lu Bu was on his way. He sent some info of Severus Army location to Lu Bu and told him that Severus was vulnerable there.

  \r \r \r

  Learning Severus’ location from Jia Xu, Lu Bu rushed to Constantinople, Greece, where Severus was preparing his forces to fight against Sun Quan, Lu Xun, Gan Ning, and the Sun Clan Army in Karapınar Forest, Turkey.

  Lu Bu barged into the city and killed soldiers, civilians, and officers. He destroyed half of the city on his own before Severus showed up with his elite bodyguards.

  Like a mad dog, Lu Bu fought everyone without caring for his life.

  In the end, he killed Severus as he wished, but he was killed by Severus’ no-name bodyguards. Still, he died smiling, knowing that he could reincarnate again.

  Thanked to Lu Bu’s contribution and self-sacrifice, the Roman Empire went into chaos as ambitious senates fought each other to succeed Severus for a whole year. The prepared troops deserted their armies, while many senates drew them to their sides to increase their political power.

  Lu Xun, Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang, and Jia Xu went into action and intervened with Roman’s internal affair. Each of them pretended to support different factions and put them to fight each other.

  However, Hannibal thwarted their plan and raised a puppet emperor, Caracalla, the eldest son of Severus, as the new emperor before civil war broke out.

  But the effort was futile as more new forces and countries emerged from the ruined cities that Cao Mengde and Pu Jing destroyed. Hannibal went missing afterward.

  This development led to the downfall of the Roman Empire. Lu Bu was given the full credits for dealing the decisive blow, which triggered this event.

  Ding Yuan, Lu Bu, and Gao Shun’s statues were built in Jinyang to honor their glorious achievements after the war.

  Lu Bu’s reincarnation was delayed due to the death of Tong during the festival. But after Tong reincarnated as Xian Tong and reclaimed his old universe, including the admin position, Lu Bu was born as Tong’s 2,005th son.

  Lu Bu changed his name into Xian Fengxian, who became a dominant figure among Tong’s descendants. But that was for another story. ……

  = Shu Han Legion =

  After Tong’s returned from Lilim’s dimension, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Ma Chao were repositioned and assigned into a single unit – Shu Han Legion.

  This was to honor Liu Bei’s former generals. Even though Zhang Fei was killed by Li Feihong, nobody minded it since Li Feihong was Liu Bei. Master killing a bad subordinate was a normal thing.

  Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang, and Zhou Cang were transferred to help this unit as well.

  Li Feihong’s Crimson Angel Legion was disbanded, but Li Feihong was transferred to be Shu Han Legion’s grand commander instead. Since they were all Shu-Han, they should have a better affinity than working with other former Wei generals.

  This move was to gather potential threats into one unit, so Li Feihong, a loyal buddy, could control them.

  Unfortunately, Li Feihong saw it as a burden. He complained a lot to Tong that the latter overworked him. He already had the title of Prime Minister, and he had to clean up Dong Bai’s mess. Now that Tong put him in charge of these rowdy people, Li Feihong threatened to commit suicide.

  Facing Li Feihong’s protest, Tong put Zhuge Liang in charge of this legion instead.

  And Tong did not disappoint. Although Zhuge Liang’s action seemed dubious and ambitious, he was a hardcore loyalist. As long as Tong put him in a high-ranking position with heavy responsibility, Zhuge Liang’s loyalty wouldn’t waver.

  Zhuge Liang requested to transfer them to Yi Province, the old Shu. Tong allowed it and sent them to their former kingdom.

  Zhuge Kongming then made several bold moves. He recruited his brothers, Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Dan into his forces. Then, he found Fa Zhang and Jiang Wei in the Shu area.

  Just like in history, Zhuge Liang mobilized to Nanman and subjugated Meng Huo and his tribes. The latter and Zhurong joined forces with them afterward.

  That was not all, Zhuge Liang snatched Zhong Hui and Deng Ai, great generals of Wei’s later generation, into his ranks a few decades later.

  The court went into an uproar as they thought that Zhuge Liang was planning to rebel, but Tong, Diaochan, Dong Bai, and Lu Zhi trusted them. Not because of his trust did Tong allow Zhuge Liang to do whatever he did, but Tong was aware of the upcoming trouble, which Pu Jing caused during his time in the west.

  Pu Jing returned to China along with a new war as Tong had expected.

  Immediately, Tong put Zhuge Liang into good use. He sent Shu Han Legion to Kushan Empire while Guo Jia deployed Zhang Liao and Lu Bu to the north.

  Tong demanded that Zhuge Liang had to settle down in the area and form a new route toward the west other than the Silk Road or the sea route. In other words, Tong wanted Zhuge Liang to conquer India’s regions.

  Zhuge Liang didn’t disappoint Tong. He conquered ancient Burmese and Tibetan Tribes in Tibet. Even small tribes of a few hundred people in Nepal, Bangladesh, and Bhutan didn’t escape his grasp.

  Shu Han Legion spent 20 years annexing 12 major kingdoms in India Peninsula, including Gupta, who should have dominated India in history in a few years. In the same year, reports said that Zhang Liao achieved a major victory over Severus Army in Southern Xiongnu.

  Afterward, it was an easy task for Zhuge Liang to wipe out the weakened Kushan, who was being attacked by the expanding Sassanid Kingdom.

  From that point, Shu Han Legion buttheaded against the two father and son, Ardashir and Shapur, the emperor and the prince of the Sassanian Empire.

  Shockingly, Ardashir and Shapur had prepared a massive force of a million Neo-Persian war-slaves, and they waited for Zhuge Liang’s arrival to fight in a decisive battle.

  Guan Yu, who was a 10-wing angel at the time, found shocking info by using his immortal sight. They ran into a trap, orchestrated by Hannibal Barca. Both Shapur and Ardashir retained their counterpart memory and managed to acquire 8 wings. However, they swore allegiance to Severus, so they couldn’t progress through their cultivation fast enough.

  Zhuge Liang, Fa Zhang, Jiang Wei, and Xu Shu found it cute. Despite having only 200,000 soldiers, Zhuge Liang declined Ardashir’s open battle challenge and forced them to fight in their turf, where his forces had the advantage ground.

  After all, they knew that their Shu Han Legion’s duty was just a distraction for Sassanid. The real attack forces were the navy unit of Wu Han Legion of Sun Quan.

  Using the advantage of superior cultivators and technologies, Zhuge Liang dragged the campaign and withered Sassanid’s food supply.

  Every day, they fought in Zhuge Liang’s home ground, but he kept on defending. Cannons, guns, ranged weapons stopped the massive army of cultivators and slaves on their track.

  8-wing and 6-wing cultivators couldn’t infiltrate Zhuge Liang’s airspace either as monster generals, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong, Deng Ai, Jiang Wei, and Zhong Hui revealed their 10 wings, intimidating the little angels and demons.

  Hannibal visited Sassanid to observe the campaign with his own eyes after the Sassanid emperor informed them that they couldn’t crack Zhuge Liang’s defense. Thus, they couldn’t send help to Constantinople, where Severus was gathering his troops.

  Hannibal lamented, "If my men are as strong as theirs and I have the same weaponry, I could have conquered Han many years ago."

  Hannibal didn’t stay behind or help the Sassanid royal family. He returned to Constantinople and didn’t come back again.

  Without the aid of the monster, Ardashir and Shapur couldn’t keep up with Zhuge Liang’s never-ending traps, arrays, and WW-I’s trenches and barbed wires mazes.

  By 320 AD, Ardashir and Shapur stopped attacking as his army suffered heavy casualties. They sent a diplomat and asked for a truce.

  Fa Zhang had an idea. Instead of having truce, Fa Zhang persuaded Ardashir to join their side instead.

  By bribing them with outdated weapons, such as muskets, Ardashir wavered. However, Shapur saw through Fa Zhang’s scheme, so he suggested to his father that they should decline.

  Fa Zhang pushed further. He revealed that Tong was the king god that could manipulate universe laws that he could create water and food from nothingness.

  The temptation of [Create Food] system skills attracted both father and son. As the majority of their land was desert and wasteland, they lacked a major source of food.

  As such, the Sassanid Empire switched sides. They formed an alliance with Shu Han Army in exchange for Tong’s skill.

  Tong gave the skill to the father and son as requested by Zhuge Liang. Using this chance, Jiang Wei and Xu Shu also showed off their skills by coaxing the Sassanid emperor to attack the Roman Empire together with them.

  Drunk by the abundance of created food, Ardashir sent his forces to attack Greece as requested.

  Both Roman and Sassanid ended up killing each other for a year before Anicius Faustus captured Ardashir and told them that they were tricked.

  Roman released Ardashir and signed a peace treaty with each other afterward.

  Sensing that their plan had failed, Shu Han Legion repositioned themselves in India. , just in case the Sasanian father and son would turn against them in the future.

  As Zhuge Liang had predicted, Sassanid eventually backstabbed them in the year 500 after Pu Jing, Cao Mengde, Sun Shangxiang, and Sun Quan broke the Roman Empire into pieces.

  Since they asked for it, Shu Han Legion finally attacked the Sassanid Empire.

  The Glorious Neo-Persian Empire fell apart in a year. Shu Han returned home afterward as Zhuge Liang refused to stay in this arid land for more than necessary. They didn’t bother ruling over the territories as Tong warned them about the latter generation European countries.

  Many years after the war, Hannibal Barca returned and visited them, not with his human form but his other form. It was the day that a giant dragon opened a rift to invite Tong and others to the [Festival].

  Tong didn’t allow native subordinates to join the festival, but he sent everyone into Zhang Jiao’s dimension.

  Seeing Tong’s action, Hannibal Barca, the dragon, left a sarcastic remark to Tong, "How does it feel to be on the powerless side for once, administrator?"

  Chapter 554 - Epilogueception (8) (300 Years East-West War Part 3)

  Chapter 554 – Epilogueception (8) (300 Years East-West War Part 3)

  = Wu Han, Wei Han, and Roman =

  Sun Quan and his subordinates’ status rose after Sun Shangxiang wedded Tong. Although it caused a scandal that Tong married both Wu Guotai and Sun Shangxiang, mother and daughter, no one dared to use it to revolt against the royal family.

  Sun Quan and his men were assigned to govern his former territories, the former Wu Kingdom. Sun Quan was delighted to reclaim his favorite home ground, Jianye City, Yang Province, and Jing Province.

  Just like others, Sun Quan, Huang Gai, and Lu Meng upgraded their cultivation base to 10 wings, while Lu Xun, Cheng Pu, and Han Dang reached the 8-wing tier.

  Taishi Ci and Gan Ning also got to 10 wings during the pre-East-West War period. Tong also transferred them to Sun Quan, so these Wu officers could enjoy their job and social life.

  Latter generation officers, such as Zhu Ran and Xu Cheng, also joined them in the latter years. They had no problem obtaining 8 wings as well.

  When the war took place, Guo Jia advised Tong to use the system authority to eliminate Severus. However, Tong was against it as it would sow bad karma, and it would hinder him from getting his 11th and 12th wing.

  Sun Shangxiang also wanted to create modern jets, tanks, and aircraft carriers using his system authority. Yet, Tong strangely disagreed.

  Tong’s action was suspicious to everyone, but he only said that he couldn’t reveal it yet. He would tell everyone when the time was right as it related to his administrator position.

  Tong ordered Diaochan, Dong Bai, Sun Shangxiang, Zhang Min, Zhang Ying, Li Feihong, and other sons and daughters of Tong that had more than 8 wings not to participate in this conflict to prevent sowing bad karma. However, Sun Shangxiang disapproved. She insisted on helping other officers.

  Without a choice, Tong sent Sun Shangxiang to Sun Quan’s Wu Han Legion.

  Guo Jia immediately came up with a plan. He deployed Zhang Liao and Lu Bu to defend the north. Shu Han Legion was sent to India. Pu Jing and Wei Han Legion were tasked to detour north of the Caspian Sea, digging deep into the country Scythians, located in the territories of modern West-Kazakhstan, Southwest Russia, and Eastern Ukraine.

  It was a risky move since Wei Han had to spearhead into neutral countries. Many officers disapproved of Wei Han’s deployment.

  However, Pu Jing explained why Guo Jia suggested it. He revealed that it was his idea, which was inspired by Adolf Hitler’s famous Blitzkrieg Tactic.

  Since Severus allied with Sassanian and Kushan, they wouldn’t have thought that Tong would dare to create more enemies by attacking neutral country states, so they wouldn’t defend their borders against these territories.

  Thus, their borders next to these countries were vulnerable. It would be a perfect opportunity to deal with a massive blow to the Roman when their attention was in northern China.

  Everyone admired Pu Jing’s insight. Tong gave Wei Han officers a few system skills, so they could self-sustain during this difficult campaign.

  [Create Food], [Weapon Creation], [Explosive Creation], and [Inventory] were given to Cao Mengde, the reincarnation of Cao Cao, who was the grand commander of Wei Han. Elite officers, such as Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Xiu, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Ba, Xu Chu, and Dian Wei also received the same skills.

  However, Guo Jia wasn’t satisfied with just that. He wanted Wu Han to sail half of the world, going through China Sea, passing through Malacca Strait, crossing Bay of Bengal, Laccadive Sea, and the Arabian Sea toward the Red Sea.

  Wu Han Legion had the freedom to land on Africa Continent, entering the Mediterranean Sea, or attacking Roman in Egypt directly. The choice was up to Sun Quan and Lu Xun.

  Because of such a long and arduous journey, Tong gave the same system skills to Wu Han officers as well.

  Such a grand voyage excited Sun Quan and his men. Even other generals envied Wu Han’s soldiers.

  \r \r \r

  However, Zhuge Liang and Xu Huang protested as they wanted those skills as well. Without a choice, Tong ended up giving every participating officers the skills.

  All troops dispatched at the same time, but Zhang Liao and Lu Bu encountered Severus Army first.

  Shu Han ran into Sassanian Emperor and his prince later on, and Wei Han made a contact with the Scythian.

  Xu Huang’s Silver Axe tagged along with Wei Han Legion. The heavy gunman cavalry of Xu Huang surprised the native and left carnage on the path they took.

  When they got through the Scythian’s territories, Jia Xu devised a sick plan.

  He sent Zhang He to Rhine Region, where Burgundians, ancient Germans, settled in this area. His objective was to lay waste and pillage northwest Roman Empire, which was modern France and England. As for Xu Huang, Jia Xu sent the Silver Axe northeast, flanking Severus Army, which was still fighting against Lu Bu and Zhang Liao.

  As for the rest, Pu Jing and Wei Han beelined toward Rome in Italy.

  Zhang He allied with the local tribes and attacked the Roman Empire together with their help. He surprised the local defenders and ransacked various cities in Western Europe and the British Isles.

  The garrisoning roman soldiers retaliated against Zhang He’s surprise attacks, but Zhang He used his cultivation advantage to hide his army’s presence and annihilated Roman battalions with 20 10-wing generals, crippled Severus’ backup armies.

  While Hannibal was contenting against Zhang Liao’s counterattack, he noticed the arrival of Xu Huang’s Silver Axe unit. He asked Severus to retreat despite having a bit of setback against the boogeyman general.

  Quintus Anicius Faustus, the elite general of Severus, repelled Zhang Liao and led his emperor in an escape. Their remaining forces boldly sailed along the coasts of the Kara Sea, Barents Sea, Norwegian Sea, North Sea, and landed on England’s shore, which ultimately avoided Xu Huang’s pursue.

  The arrival of Hannibal’s fleet surprised Zhang He, who was pillaging in this area.

  Xun You, the adviser of the Ghost Legion, suggested that they should avoid a direct confrontation with Severus’ main forces and focused on guerrilla warfare.

  Zhang He agreed and hid his troops again.

  It was a mistake. As Hannibal learned about Zhang He’s deeds in the area, he summoned all backup and scattered troops from Western Europe to gather in Londinium, a great roman fort in London.

  Severus and Anicius Faustus proceeded to cut off all port access, bought shipbuilders and fishermen, and migrated all craftsmen away, which isolated Zhang He’s Ghost Legion, who was still hiding in the British Isles.

  Hannibal then used Severus as a bait to draw Zhang He out in the open. He disguised his emperor as a general and led a small searching party of 1,000 men.

  Zhang He bit the bait. Hannibal ambushed him and his force with elite cultivators with 6 wings and 8 wings.

  Zhang He might have been terrified as the ghost of battlefields, but he and his vice generals were killed by Severus and Hannibal.

  Still, the casualties of back-to-back battles against Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, and Zhang He crippled Roman’s military might. Severus even coughed blood when he learned about the death of his elites.

  After the battle in the British Isles, Hannibal suggested that they should recruit barbarian tribes and give them Roman citizenship.

  Anicius Faustus disagreed immediately as it went against Roman’s principle, which only native Romans were the superior to the nomadic tribes, aka the German People of ancient times. They didn’t need to lower themselves to ask beggars for a favor.

  Surprisingly, Severus accepted Hannibal’s suggestion and employed all local tribesmen to fill his ranks.

  A few months after the death of Zhang He, Xu Huang, who had failed to keep Hannibal and Severus in check, pursued after their trails and found Severus’ main forces near Colonia Agrippinensium in the modern world Germany.

  During the same month, Pu Jing and Wei Han Legion already burnt Rome to the ground and destroyed Roman’s pride heartland.

  Using the intel that the Wei Han unit was doing, Xu Huang didn’t engage against Severus and Hannibal.

  Xu Huang returned the favor with a similar trick. He blockaded Severus Army from marching south toward Rome. Xun Yu, the strategist of Silver Axe Legion, intentionally leaked the news of Rome’s destruction to the western emperor.

  Anicius Faustus flew into a rage and wanted to challenge Xu Huang Army.

  However, Severus and Hannibal didn’t lose their cool. Both of them had the same idea that Rome was a lost cause since the Han Dynasty came prepared.

  Severus wanted to regroup the Romans in Burdigala, aka Bordeaux, but Hannibal insisted that Constantinople had better strategic advantage points that could defend any invader, as long as they never invited them in.

  The emperor didn’t listen to Hannibal this time. He force-marched southwest to Burdigala and avoided confrontation with Xu Huang.

  When they almost arrived, Xun Yu intentionally leaked more intel to Severus again. He told them the fact that Sun Quan and Sun Shangxiang’s Wu Han had landed on Africa Continent, and allied with the African tribes, promising them about freedom and liberty.

  African people grew up living as slaves for the Egyptians and the Romans. Upon hearing that they could live free, they joined forces with Sun Quan.

  While Severus was busy with Zhang He, Sun Quan and Sun Shangxiang annexed Egypt, Alexandria, and got access to the Mediterranean Sea. Their fleets were ready to storm any city of the Roman, which concentrated around this water.

  Severus was distressed. He changed his mind and accepted Hannibal’s advice.

  However, Hannibal advised Severus to rest in Burdigala and recuperate from their losses. Otherwise, their entire army might perish.

  Severus questioned Hannibal’s words since the latter flipped their tongue.

  Hannibal explained that it was Xun Yu’s ploy that he wanted them to move around and wore down their psyche. Once they were mentally exhausted, Xu Huang would strike, and that would be their end.

  Severus had a scare and believed in Hannibal.

  It was just like Hannibal had predicted. Xu Huang had already set up ambush and traps on the way toward Constantinople.

  Xu Huang discovered later that their ploy had been found. He changed his battle policy and began recruiting nomadic tribes, who were hostile against the Romans.

  The Silver Axe Legion ignored Severus Army and plundered nearby roman settlements, which crippled Roman’s economy forever.

  Cao Mengde and Pu Jing also coordinated with Xu Huang’s movements. They marched along the Mediterranean shoreline and plundered every city they found. At the same time, they pressured Severus to migrate from the Bordeaux area, or they would be cornered in Western Europe.

  Severus and Hannibal saw that Xu Huang and Wei Han attempted to corner them. Although they had enough strength to fight back, they gathered their able troops and flew to Constantinople. As for the rest of the weak cultivators, Severus ordered them to retreat on foot.

  Of course, all of them never reached Constantinople because of a certain girl.

  Wu Han also splitted their forces into two units. Sun Shangxiang led 20,000 men west. She annexed towns along the southwestern Mediterranean shoreline.

  Unlike others, Sun Shangxiang was more merciful to the local Romans. She even taught roman scholars about medicines and cured many deadly diseases for the townspeople.

  Sun Shangxiang Army ended up being called, the Saint Army. Some local men even mistook her as an apostle of Hestia, the Goddess of Health.

  As such, Sun Shangxiang’s journey was peaceful as native Romans opened their city gates to surrender to her and treated her as a goddess. Sun Shangxiang ended up pilgrimaging from Libya to Spain, and from Spain to France. However, she stopped after realizing that she was supposed to destroy the Romans.

  Sun Shangxiang deserted the troops and returned to Ye by flight afterward. As for the rest of the men, they either flew home or sail from West Europe to China Sea.

  But the seed had been planted. Many Romans admired Sun Shangxiang and accepted her as one of their goddesses. Many troops who were supposed to regroup with Severus switched sides and joined the cult, living in the west roman forever.

  As for Sun Quan Army, they fought a long difficult campaign east against Severus and Hannibal, who flew to the eastern roman area to support the local troops. They eventually came to a stop at Constantinople.

  By the time that they got to Syria, Zhuge Liang already got into a prolonged-war with the Sassanid Empire. Severus tried to ask for their help, but they were too busy getting trolled by the turtle Shu Han.

  Chapter 555 - Epilogueception (9) (300 Years East-West War Part 4)

  Chapter 555 – Epilogueception (9) (300 Years East-West War Part 4)

  = Decline of Roman =

  After returning to Constantinople, Severus, Hannibal, and his elite generals squared against Sun Quan Navy’s relentless attacks.

  For a hundred years, Sun Quan and Severus continued to fight in a tug of war. Sun Quan almost cornered Severus countless times, but Hannibal seemed to have an answer to their ploys every now and then. Every time Hannibal moved, Sun Quan had to withdraw his army back two steps.

  Gan Ning also made his appearance in a navy seal style. However, he failed to crack Constantinople’s defense as he couldn’t hide his presence like Zhang He. Anicius Faustus found him with his immortal sight and intercepted all Gan Ning’s water raid attempts.

  In the end, Sun Quan and Wu Han Army retreated to recuperate in Antioch, modern-day Antakya City, Turkey.

  But that didn’t discourage Sun Quan as Wei Han, Xu Huang, and Sun Shangxiang had already half-destroyed the great empire. Once Severus died, the Roman would end.

  Prisoners of war, roman soldiers, women, children, and elders were brought back to China by Pu Jing’s order. This former premiere aimed to cripple Roman’s economy and growth for good as continued to drag on the war to wither Hannibal’s forces.

  Guo Jia, the policymaker of this war, sent a request to Sun Quan that they should stop attacking Severus for now as Shu Han came up with an interesting scheme.

  All of a sudden, the Sassanid Empire turned on the Roman. They deployed their forces and attacked Constantinople and Roman cities in this area.

  For once, Sun Quan sat back and enjoyed the show. Both sides killed each other without realizing that it was Fa Zhang’s ingenious plan.

  Yet, a year later, they signed a peace treaty and turned on Tong’s Han Dynasty again.

  But that was enough time for Sun Quan to lick his wound and reform his armies. As soon as Sun Shangxiang’s detached units regrouped with them, Sun Quan marched out to fight Severus once more.

  Zhang Liao also joined them. However, as a defense master, he fortified Antioch for Sun Quan to protect their campaign headquarters.

  Lu Xun sent requests to Wei Han and Xu Huang, asking for reinforcement. Unfortunately, these units had a rough time trying to pacify the local population. After all, western culture was not the same as the Han. Cao Mengde and Xu Huang regrettably declined as they couldn’t help it. Shu Han also had to defend India, in case Sassanid suddenly attacked West China.

  Still, with Zhang Liao’s assistance, Wu Han Army’s morale soared. Sun Quan pressed against Severus again.

  This time, Sun Quan moved toward Konya Province. Instead of occupying advantage points or high ground, he emphasized on fortifications and draining Severus’ resources.

  Konya Province geography was a strategic location as the terrain was mostly forest during this ancient era (Currently a half-desert in modern time due to deforestation in the 20th-century.). The landmark, Karapinar Volcano Field, was also nearby.

  Lu Xun also copied Zhuge Liang’s stratagem in his fight against the Sassanid Empire. He started using WW-I tactic – digging trenches and barricading them with barbed wires. Combining with the forest in this area, attacking forces would be vulnerable to ambushes.

  Since they had infinite provision and ammo, they didn’t care if they would be isolated in the middle of the Karapınar Forest. Sun Quan might not be able to push back Hannibal, but the latter couldn’t drive away from the former from Konya Province either.

  Hannibal proposed that they should burn the forest to drive Sun Quan out, but Severus disapproved of the idea right away. Severus believed that destroying forests would harm their natural resources – food and lumber.

  The prolonged war dragged on as Sun Quan kept hiding in the natural fortress.

  Severus got impatient after Sun Quan didn’t move for 10 years. He dispatched Anicius Faustus to reclaim Europe from Wei Han Army.

  Still, Hannibal and Severus stayed behind to protect Constantinople from Sun Quan.

  When Cao Mengde and Jia Xu found out that Anicius Faustus led an army for them, they retreated west, heading toward Spain. However, they didn’t withdraw normally as Pu Jing employed the scorch earth tactic, burning cities, crops, and food storages and they ran away.

  Pu Jing didn’t forget to use Cheng Yu’s tactic – tampering with the water source and spreading diseases to the local people.

  Anicius Faustus was enraged. He pursued Wei Han Army despite having limited food supply.

  Cao Mengde stopped periodically to draw Faustus deeper. Eventually, Faustus Army reached Gallia Narbonensis, aka modern Toulouse Prefecture.

  At that point, Faustus ran low on provision as he couldn’t replenish them via the local channel. Furthermore, when he reclaimed most of Roman Cities, he had to distribute some food to the remaining sick population.

  \r \r \r

  This good deed action harmed his army. He was not ruthless enough to carry the responsibility of cruel warfare.

  Soon, Cao Mengde and Pu Jing Army changed course and left the European continent via sea route. They didn’t dare to touch Sun Shangxiang’s former territories in southwest France and Spain, which idolized her as their goddess.

  Still, Cao Mengde sent messages to Sun Shangxiang and asked her for a favor. Guo Jia also requested her aid in Spain region.

  Sun Shangxiang returned to Caesaraugusta, aka Zaragoza. She appeared in public and announced that Faustus Army was carrying diseases toward them, and they were here to plunder their food.

  The Romans were skeptical at first as they knew that Wei Han and Faustus were at war, and Sun Shangxiang was Wei Han’s ally.

  But when Faustus traveled to Zaragoza Prefecture and forced the local people to hand over their food, all townspeople recalled Sun Shangxiang’s warning. Within a month, over 10,000 roman citizens revolted.

  The anarchic incident got worse when Faustus’ soldiers spread their cursed diseases to the local population. The legate of Caesaraugusta allied himself with the Gothic refugees, a small mercenary force, and established Visigoths, the same name as the Visigoths of Alaric in history.

  Although history changed a lot because of immortality and East-West War, Alaric got back into power as he was the current captain of Gothic Thervingi Mercenary. His people selected him, who had 8 demon wings and the memory of his counterpart in the other world, as their king once more.

  All roman cities with Sun Shangxiang religion switched sides to Alaric, and the new empire, the Visigoths, emerged once as in history. Alaric, the new king, declared war against the Roman Empire and announced that they would be the Han Dynasty’s ally.

  This sudden development shocked Faustus and even Sun Shangxiang, who was used by Guo Jia. She returned home and scolded Guo Jia in Ye for a whole day.

  When the news reached Cao Mengde and Jia Xu, they almost died laughing as this incident was not a part of their plan. In reality, it was Guo Jia’s machination as usual since he had been watching everything and learned all otherworld history from Diaochan.

  Faustus suffered a humiliating defeat because of the famine and epidemic, but he managed to deal a critical blow on Alaric. The new king suffered from soul injuries and had to recuperate for years to come.

  Faustus retreated with a few thousand men to Constantinople later, but he returned home too late.

  By the time he arrived, he found that Gan Ning, the navy commander of Wu Han, had bombarded the great city with cannon artilleries from countless frigates.

  The great city wall was tattered with traces of cannonballs and explosives, and the gate was destroyed.

  When Faustus was away, Lu Bu ransacked the great city and killed Severus. However, Lu Bu also died in the rampage. As for Hannibal, he disappeared.

  Fortunately, the city had not fallen yet as Sun Quan didn’t send his soldiers into the city. Faustus reorganized the civilians and the surviving troops and prepared to have a peace talk with Wu Han Army.

  No more major war occurred afterward as Roman senators began to tear each other for the throne. With immortal life, no one satisfied with being a lowly servant.

  All of Tong’s troops returned to China’s homeland. What happened from that point was left to the local population to fight it out. Although Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Xun Yu messed with the internal affair of the Romans, no general cared to continue the war anymore. ……

  = Tong and Hannibal =

  "Do you mind if I play in your universe?"

  That was a mysterious voice message that Tong heard in his head after Pu Jing swore allegiance to him. It was many years before Severus even prepared his forces to invade Han Dynasty.

  "Who are you? What do you want?"

  "I’m a peer of your creator. I have a proposal for you."

  "…… Don’t you want to introduce yourself first?"

  "You can call me [Player One]. I’m just a tourist who wants to experience life in your universe. Unfortunately, I need your permission, who is the current administrator of this dimension."

  "Oh? Then, what is it that you want, and what is your offer?"

  "As I stated before, I want to play a game in your universe. I’ll be reincarnated as someone with the same name in the west, and I’ll enjoy my life there."

  "Tell me what you’ll be giving me, and I’ll decide. I don’t trust strangers, so my game will be pricy."

  "Fifty billion years of lifespan, a million barrels of purified 20-wing entity’s holy water for karmic river cleansing, and the news from your home universe. Aren’t you curious why you aren’t summoned back home?"

  "You seem to know a lot. Do I know you?"

  "You’ve already learned about what I did in a history book, you see. My name is Hannibal Barca. I’m also an administrator from another universe."

  After the conversation, a few decades later, Hannibal Barca appeared in this world despite the timeline error.

  Hannibal forbade Tong from using system authority or his relatives to directly harm Hannibal and his allies, but Tong could bestow a few support skills to his subordinates if he needed to. Tong also couldn’t participate in the upcoming war either since his power was cheating, and Hannibal found it boring to fight a cheater.

  Hannibal promised that he wouldn’t use his 16-wing power and his otherworldly knowledge against Tong, but he would fight using the local weaponry and the technologies that had already existed or developed in Tong’s world.

  The game began with Tong’s universe as a gaming server host for the first time. Hannibal became the [Player 1] and enjoyed the East-West War thoroughly.

  The war changed Tong’s perspective of native people, souls, and the nature of this universe. Aside from his wives and his subordinates, he distanced himself from the local population.

  Millions of souls circulated through the river of karma as Tong maintained its stability in secret. He found out that the more people died, the more stable the river became.

  He felt nothing when Zhang He and his men died. Tong felt like they were NPC game characters, who would respawn at some point.

  Still, the policeman-self pulled him back from the apathy syndrome. He took the hobbies of impregnating his favorite wives and collecting cursed children in Lilim’s dimension to maintain his sanity. He even released Liu Ping out of misery, but he forgot to sever the karma.

  The East-West War ended after Lu Bu killed Severus. Hannibal visited Tong personally and revealed his 16 black feather wings, which was the opposite of what Sun Shangxiang had.

  Hannibal gave Tong what he had promised and commented that Tong’s support system skills were interesting, and he would create them in his universe. He complained, though, that the Romans in this age lacked talented generals, good strategists, and hot weapons. Or else, he could have defeated Tong’s minions.

  Hannibal [logged out] from this universe, but he returned in his true form a few hundred years later.

  This time, Hannibal came to give the festival invitation to Tong and his subordinates.

  As Tong had enlightened from the recent war and the truth of the universes from Hannibal, Tong denied his subordinates’ entry and sent everyone to Zhang Jiao’s dimension so that they wouldn’t lose their sanity and humanity mindset like him.

  He went to the [Higher Dimension] with his trusted family members.

  Unfortunately, the creator challenged Medusa and got Tong involved in their affair.

  Tong wanted to breakthrough during the fight, but the karma knots he had with Ping hindered his growth. Even after Tong severed the ties with his retainers and immortal subordinates, he couldn’t get his 11th wing.

  In the end, Tong suicide-bombed the creator. He even saw Liu Ping’s smirking face before his consciousness faded away.

  When he reincarnated as Xian Tong, he was a bit upset that resting in the karmic river was more peaceful than struggling in the world of the living.

  Hannibal even visited Tong when he was still a baby. He came here under Medusa’s supervision.

  Hannibal invited Tong to play in the future festival when he grew up. He wanted to challenge Tong in another war game again, but he would bring his top generals and strategists to fight against Tong’s best officers.

  Tong refused at first, but he eventually snuck out when Medusa and others went to another festival. As Xian Tong, he ended up evolving into another dragon among the higher dimension by training in Hannibal’s game universe.

  The two became friends without anyone realizing it. When Tong migrated his former retainers and his wives to the [Old Heaven], aka Morning Star and the creator’s old universe, he took the role as an admin once more.

  He stayed out of the festival and enjoyed his freestyle "Sim Universe" afterward. Medusa dumped him along the way, which depressed him for a millennium.

  But he returned to a new conflict once more when he discovered Morning Star in a new reincarnated body and Lilith’s little game. Surprisingly, he found Medusa and Hannibal at the new festival.

  Tong found out that Lilith had brought up the reincarnation of Morning Star as her representative. Meanwhile, Medusa allied with the reincarnation of the creator. As for Hannibal, he brought his best officers as promised. The latter even challenged Tong for an all-out war between universes.

  Xian Tong and Hannibal’s brought their elite generals and strategists soldiers into another war. Amid their conflict, another war between Lilith and the reincarnated creator took place while a new actor, the reincarnation of Lucifer, emerged as the new rising star. ……

  "Wanna play a game?"
