Chapter 94: The Growing Power of Yuan Shao

In the Kingdom of Balak, the capital's location, Duan Ping, a dual-gun wielding soldier, licked his lips with a lingering desire and pulled up his pants as he walked out of a large courtyard. This courtyard used to belong to General Li Yang, who guarded the borders of the Kingdom of Balak. However, Li Yang was killed at the border, forcing his family to flee during the night. As a result, the courtyard was left vacant.
Later, Yuan Shao usurped the throne, and this large courtyard was put up for auction. It was purchased by a wealthy merchant for over 3,500 gold soul coins. The merchant initially intended to please the new king, Yuan Shao, but upon seeing the strength of his army, he decided to move his entire family here and seek protection.

What about the results? It's not known whether Yuan Shao's army protected their families, but this scoundrel Dong Ping, after finishing his work, instructed his subordinates to raid and dispose of this family, suspecting them of colluding with the enemy.
Subordinates understand clearly, when our own general speaks such words, either the girl from this family is very clever and charming, we should send her to General Dong's residence after ransacking the house. Or this family is very wealthy, we should divide the spoils five ways on the 22nd.
Fifty percent will be turned over to the national treasury, twenty percent will be turned over to Yuan Shao's private treasury, twenty percent will go to Dong Ping, and the remaining ten percent will be evenly distributed among the subordinates.
Stretching lazily, Dong Ping casually glanced and caught a glimpse of a somewhat familiar figure hastily passing by. As a sharp-eyed person, Dong Ping always had a feeling that he had seen this person somewhere before, but couldn't recall it for the moment.
Just at that moment, Dong Ping felt a surge of spiritual force attacking from behind. Subconsciously, he tried to dodge, but it was already too late. A deafening roar resounded throughout the entire imperial city. Blood was flowing from Dong Ping's waist, and the surrounding streets were leveled.
“张俭！”董平咬牙切齿的吐出一个名字，经过这个袭击，他终于回想起刚才看到的人是谁，那个人虽然先前从未谋面，但从辈分上来说。应该还是他的大舅哥。
Hmm, unfortunately that lady from the Zhang family is too delicate in body and cannot withstand any turmoil. Otherwise, I could not only have multiple concubines but also have two decent deputies. But once you release the bowstring, the arrow cannot be recalled. Since we have already become enemies, we must eliminate the enemy as soon as possible.
After a quick bandaging, Dong Ping and Li Kui chased after the enemy, leaving Fan Rui and the others to clean up the mess and enforce martial law throughout the city.
In the shadows, Wang Yue silently followed Dong Ping and his group out of the city. Although he was aware of the Li brothers' plan, Dong Ping's injuries were not as severe as planned, and there was also an unexpected addition of Li Kui. Wang Yue decided that if necessary, he would lend a helping hand.
Compared to Wang Yue's sneaky and furtive behavior, Wu Song and Bai Sun Dao Ren were more direct. They released their aura, swaggered, and hung slightly behind, as if they were just watching the excitement.
"Brother, here we go." Li Tianyou pushed Li Tianrun next to him, and said with some excitement. Li Tianrun, who was resting his eyes, slowly opened them, and the long spear in his hand slowly drew several circles in the air, which can be considered as a simple warm-up.
可别觉得厉天闰在托大轻敌，俗话说的好，棍怕点头枪怕圆，能用枪画出圆圈，已经证明厉天闰此时已经是把状态调整到最巅峰。
Moon stick, year sword, a lifetime gun, Li Tianrun is known as a master of both the knife and gun, but he still has his preferences. He uses a knife for small-scale close combat, and clearly chooses a gun for duels with skilled opponents.
The seemingly panicked and chaotic escape of the Zhang brothers gradually led Dong Ping and Li Kui to this unnamed valley. Dong Ping squinted as he looked at Li Tianrun standing atop the mountain with a gun in hand. Is he the one the Zhang brothers rely on?

Li Kui, who felt that something was not right, secretly pulled Dong Ping's sleeve from behind, indicating that they shouldn't take unnecessary risks. The other party was well-prepared, so it would be strategic to retreat for now. Please note that the @ symbol is not typically used in English texts.
"Worthless double-gun loser, impotent nobleman, you cowardly bully who preys on the weak. I'm right here, if you dare, come fight me!" Just as Dong Ping hesitated, Zhang Tao mocked him directly.
"You little thief seeking death!" Dong Ping angrily roared, his ape-like arm stretched out as he held two long spears in his hands. I must say, with the golden helmet on his head, scaled armor adorning his body, and two silver spears in his hands, Dong Ping, with two small flags inserted behind his back, truly looked the part. Unfortunately, he was nothing more than a figurehead. There is a poem describing Dong Ping's appearance: (Note: The poem is not provided in the original text)
The two-sided flag shines in the daylight, The silver iron armor is as cold as frost. The helmet with polished phoenix wings is white, The embroidered qilin battle coat is green.
A pair of white dragons compete up and down, Two silver pythons pass and soar. In He Dong, there is a courageous and elegant general, Who is skilled in using dual spears like Dong Ping. (No need to reply.
Lì Tiān Rùn is a silent figure who doesn't speak much. He silently wields his gun to sweep away Dǒng Píng's attacks, engaging in a fierce battle. Originally, Lì Tiān Rùn's strength at level 85 in Contra is not much weaker than Dǒng Píng's. Furthermore, with Dǒng Píng being injured at this moment, the two of them are evenly matched in their fight. However, as long as one has a little bit of intelligence, it is evident that in a prolonged battle, Lì Tiān Rùn will definitely emerge victorious.
Li Kui saw the situation was not good and shouted out. He grabbed two axes and intended to join the battle. However, he was stopped by Li Tianyou, who was holding a big knife beside him. Although Li Kui was one level higher than Li Tianyou, most of his learned soul skills were AoE clearing skills. As a result, he felt that this guy was as fierce as a top-notch general when fighting against ordinary soldiers, but as weak as an ordinary soldier when facing a master.

First, let's shift our focus from the battle in the Nameless Valley to the city within the Kingdom of Barak. Fan Rui, who is leading his followers to clean up the streets, suddenly feels a breeze as a middle-aged scholar quietly appears at the site of the explosion.
"Uh, this explosive should be unique to the one-time soul guides sold by the Spirit Hall. But theoretically, only Soul Masters at the sixth level can purchase soul guide shells. The power of such a large explosion obviously exceeds sixth level." Coming to the explosion site for a brief observation, Wen Shi confidently stated.

“您的意思是...”作为一个懂事的手下，在合适的时候接话，已经成为樊瑞的必修课，虽然知道文士下面想要说什么，但还是要不懂装懂的发问。
“威力比八级小，比七级大，应该是两个七级魂导炮弹，一枚火属性的，一枚雷属性的。按照武魂殿限购策略，一个魂斗罗每月只能买一个同属性的七级魂导炮弹，对方应该是两个魂斗罗。”
"Dong Ping is in danger, go find General Gao Lan and ask him to come support us quickly. I will go and see what the situation is." The scholar finished instructing and in a flash, appeared above the city gate of the imperial capital, then teleported again...
"Just now, Tang Juedouluo, a 93rd level Control System, is a good whetstone for Senior Wang Yue." In the shadow, a burly man with a purple face stretched his limbs and hung far behind the scholar. This move is called "Praying Mantis Hunts the Cicada, the Yellow Sparrow Behind." Translated: "
就在雄阔海看戏吃瓜的时候，樊瑞也找到了在巴拉克王国王宫的高览，此时的高览正与一名身着盔甲的男子一起面见袁绍。
"Brother, leave this matter to me. I happen to be new here, let me show everyone what I'm capable of." The armored man made a clanging sound as he patted his steel armor. Gao Lan and Yuan Shao also stood up, wanting to witness the man's display of skills.
