Chapter 718 Dead? Caught From the Underworld!

Who can tell them where this damn Dong Zhuo came from?

It is so shocking and unbelievable that he can defeat and destroy all three forces by himself!

What makes people speechless is the incompetence and cowardice of He Jin. He has a large number of elite soldiers in his hands, but he was so easily attacked and brutally killed by a group of eunuchs.

It really fits the saying: a butcher is just a butcher after all, there is no big picture to speak of. You are just an arrogant upstart. Do you really think that no one dares to kill you because you are a general?

Fortunately, this fierce competition has just begun and is still in the initial stage.

Most of the gods were quite cautious when placing bets. Most of them just tried their hand and placed some bets tentatively. No one dared to go all-in. Otherwise, many gods would be eliminated and leave the scene.

…

…

In the Tongming Palace, the Jade Emperor's face was ashen, and veins on his forehead bulged. He threw the exquisite teacup in his hand to the ground in anger.

There was a crisp sound of "bang", and the teacup instantly turned into countless fragments and flew everywhere.

Although he and Xiao had a grudge, he had to use the good thing of summoning gods. No god would ignore the precious spiritual essence.

Moreover, he and the Three Pure Ones were in the same camp. As long as the Three Pure Ones got the spiritual essence chips, they would naturally give him a part.

However, unlike other gods, the Jade Emperor did not have a final guaranteed share. If he lost the bet, he would really lose all the spiritual essence supply.

In this fierce power struggle in the lower world, the person that the Jade Emperor favored the most was the general He Jin who controlled all the military power of the Han court.

As the emperor who ruled the three realms, the Jade Emperor knew all the political tactics in the world.

He knew the power of the so-called "grabbing the lever to make policies" and was also very clear about the various political forms in human society.

Therefore, in the eyes of the Jade Emperor, He Jin, who controlled all the armies of the Han Dynasty, was undoubtedly the most likely candidate to win this thrilling power struggle.

So, he placed a heavy bet on He Jin without hesitation, and even bet one-third of his wealth.

But who would have thought?

The seemingly majestic He Jin, who was highly expected by him, was so vulnerable!

He was easily assassinated by the eunuchs, and died without a sound, which was extremely aggrieved.

Due to He Jin's unexpected defeat, the Jade Emperor not only lost a huge share of spiritual essence, but also completely destroyed his carefully planned layout.

In anger, the Jade Emperor slapped the armrest of the dragon throne and shouted: "Come here! Convey my order and capture He Jin's soul from hell. I want to deal with this waste!"

...

Some people are so angry that they are crazy, and naturally some people make a lot of money.

Among them, Xiao relied on his foresight of the history of the late Han Dynasty and placed all his bets on Dong Zhuo without hesitation in this major event.

After all, in the next few days, it was the time when Dong Zhuo was calling the shots and dominating one side!

He first eliminated the notorious Ten Attendants, and then brutally killed the young emperor Liu Bian and replaced him with Liu Xie as the new emperor. Then he slaughtered the Yuan family clan.

This series of outrageous acts became an excellent opportunity for Xiao to make a fortune, allowing him to successfully plunder a large number of precious spiritual essence shares from each evil act.

Relying solely on Dong Zhuo, Xiao easily harvested a full 3% of the spiritual essence shares.

However, as smart as Xiao was, he naturally understood that Dong Zhuo's arrogance could not continue forever, and his so-called "glory" was nothing but a passing cloud.

So, Xiao took away all the spiritual essence shares plundered by Dong Zhuo that night.

While others were still immersed in the short-term benefits brought by Dong Zhuo, Xiao also decisively took action and quietly took back most of the spiritual essence chips that had been invested in Dong Zhuo, leaving Dong Zhuo with only a small part that was enough to maintain his own strength.

Then, Xiao did not hesitate to put all the remaining spiritual essence chips in his hand on Lu Bu, the world's number one general.

Time flies and it is the first year of Emperor Xian's Chuping reign. At this time, Dong Zhuo is becoming more and more reckless and perverse.

He not only allowed his men to do whatever they want in Luoyang City and disrupt social order, but also killed loyal ministers and good leaders at will, causing the people of Chang'an to be angry and resentful.

Facing such a cruel and inhumane Dong Zhuo, the righteous man Cao Cao resolutely sneaked into the palace with the Seven-Star Sword, trying to get rid of this treacherous minister who brought disaster to the country and the people.

Unfortunately, the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes. Cao Cao failed in the assassination. He had no choice but to change his name and flee Luoyang City in a hurry.

After Cao Cao fled to Chenliu, he was not discouraged and depressed. Instead, he spent all his family's money and actively united with righteous men from all sides to form a powerful army.

Not only that, Cao Cao was the first to stand up and loudly advocate that all heroes and heroes jointly rise up to fight against Dong Zhuo, the traitor who everyone could kill.

As soon as this feat came out, it instantly received the response and support of many people with lofty ideals.

In this way, a massive battle between the 18 princes to fight against Dong Zhuo officially kicked off...

The gods also bet on the princes they favored again, and they did not ask how many enemy generals these 18 princes could kill. They just thought that it would be fine to get a guaranteed increase in stock prices.

No matter how you look at it, the 18 princes are bound to win, and Dong Zhuo has no power to fight back. However, this is not the case.

Before Hulao Pass, Dong Zhuo's adopted son Lu Bu almost broke through the coalition of the 18 princes by himself.

Lu Bu's obviously wrong fighting power immediately made the gods curse secretly, and Lao Liu secretly placed a big bet to improve his strength.

Although Dong Zhuo's side suffered repeated setbacks on the battlefield and was forced to curl up behind Hulao Pass to avoid the edge temporarily.

However, in this situation where it seemed that the defeat was inevitable, Dong Zhuo's adopted son Lu Bu was like a god of war, single-handedly in front of the battle, beheading several coalition generals.

His brave and fearless fighting performance was jaw-dropping, and his fighting power was beyond imagination.

Lu Bu wielded the Fang Tian Hua Ji, as if he was in an empty space, and enemies fell wherever he went.

His terrifying power and superb martial arts made people suspicious, and the gods secretly speculated that Lao Liu must have placed a heavy bet on Lu Bu.
