Jia Xu was intrigued by what Lie Fan said, as his words truly began to describe this era. Talented people began to pop up, choosing the lord that they wanted to serve. Whether it was for fame, honor, justice, or money, it truly began to show that many talents didn’t want to serve the Han Dynasty, meaning that only the common people still cared about the Han Dynasty. Lie Fan told Jia Xu to take a rest, as they would leave for Xiapi at Dawn, They can’t let guests wait for them for too long. Fortunately, the distance between Jibei and Xiapi is not that far. Joa Xu bowed and took his leave, closing the door on the way out. Lie Fan lay down on his bed and looked at the ceiling, it’s been 24 years for him to live in this world. He has done many things that he wouldn’t have done in his previous life. Leading an army, becoming an influential figure, killing many people, and having more than one wife. Thinking about his wives, Lie Fan closed his eyes while imagining that he was in Xiapi right now, sleeping with all of his wives in one bed, even though the chance of it happening is slim, but hey a man can dream. Lie Fan woke up the next day at dawn, his army was already ready to march back to Xiapi. Before leaving Jibei, Cao Cao invited him to have breakfast together, just the two of them. Cao Cao: “Brother Lie, I don’t know when we will meet again in a calm situation, so I invited you to have breakfast with me.” Lie Fan: “Haha it’s okay Brother Mengde, it this entire world I can say proudly that there are only 5 men I admire.” Cao Cao: “Oh? May I know who is this there man?” Lie Fan: “My Father Lie Shang, Sun Tzu, Xiang Yu, Qun Shi Huang, and you Brother Mengde.” Cao Cao: “Haha! I’m unworthy to be on this list of people you admire Brother Lie, my achievement is nothing compared to theirs especially your father as his contribution is bringing you to this world!” Lie Fan: “We are not talking about contributions to the world Brother Mengde, it’s about the talent and personality they have. Maybe others can’t see it, but I know what you have endured and worked for to reach this position to have now.” Cao Cao stopped his chopstick from taking a chicken dish, he looked up and saw Lie Fan’s eyes looking at him, as he could see through all of his movements and thoughts. This is the first time he was intimidated by a rival warlord, and from someone so much younger than him. In this world, he can be sure that if it’s not him who controls the land, it’s either Lie Fan or Liu Bei. Lie Fan and Cao Cao looked each other in the eyes, and then they laughed together. This is the money these two men realize, that the race to hegemony is just between the two of them and they didn’t even put the others in their eyes. The breakfast between Cao Cao and Lie Fan in the future will be known as the breakfast that started the rivalry between Lie Fan and Cao Cao, making the land enter a new era. After breakfast, Lie Fan was escorted by Cao Cao to go toward Jibei’s southern gate. There Lie Fan’s retainers and army are waiting for him, Cao Cao joined by his advisors and generals looks at Lie Fan getting up on his horse. Lie Fan turned to face Cao Cao, after giving a salute he turned his horse to head toward his army, followed by his bodyguards. Cao Cao: “Zhicai Wenruo when can I meet with Guo Jia?” Xun Yu: “Soon My Lord, Guo Jia should have heard the news of My Lord taking over Yan Province. Why do you ask My Lord?” Cao Cao: “After my conversation with Lie Fan over our breakfast, I can be sure now that the only man who is in the way of our hegemony is him.” Xi Zhicai: “Then if that’s how My Lord feels then it’s true, Lie Fan can be said to be a chameleon for me, he was very smart in changing his face and side. Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m". Look at him now, he doesn’t even show the care he showed for the Han Dynasty before.” Cao Cao: “Haha that’s why I said he will become our biggest obstacle, he was the same as me, Cao Mengde! Everything is for the sake of benefits, we can endure anything even humiliation.” After saying that Cao Cao grew silent, and he watched Lie Fan and his army leave Jibei into the horizon. Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai look at each other, it looks like their lord is truly serious and saying that Lie Fan and him were alike. Lie Fan and his army head toward Xiapi, and spend about 15 days before reaching Xiaopei. There they meet with Huang Zhong and Xun You who have returned to Xiaopei with the Qinglong Army. While staying in Xiaopei to rest, Huang Zhong and Xun You handed the prisoners that they captured before. When Lie Fan orders for the army to be split up, the prisoners was brought by Huang Zhong and Xun You for them to take to Xiaopei. The prisoners are about 15,000 men, some have died due to Huang Zhong and Xun You employing the Prsioner army tactics that Lie Fan used to battle the Yellow Turbans. Lie Fan thanked the two of them, 15,000 battle hardened men are easier to train that new recruits. After taking a rest at Xiapoei, the next day Lie Fan and his army continue their march toward Xiapi. On the way to Xiapi Lie Fan and his army passed by the Horse Farm. Seeing the Cement wall, Lie Fan nodded his head in satisfaction. The Horse Farm will be the first building to be built with Cement, which are important in the advancement of construction. Jia Xu and Chen Qun see for the first time the result of the Cement Project that Lie Fan handed to Mi Zhu and Wang Lang, they didn’t expect that these such unique building materials and they could see that this material will be the cornerstone of Lie Fan building construction. After spending about 10 days, they finally arrived at Xiapi. He handed the army and prisoners to Xu Rong, Ling Cao, and Ze Rong to handle. Lie Fan without changing his clothes and taking of his armor, he head towards the Governor’s Castle with this Xu and Chen Qun. There Sun Qian and Chen Gui are discussing some official matters, when Lie Fan with Jia Xu and Chen Qun arrive at Chen Gui’s office. Sun Qian and Chen Gui was surprised at Lie Fan’s arrival, they bowed and greeted Lie Fan. Lie Fan told Sun Qian to lead him toward the guests that was waiting for him, while joining that he doesn’t know why whenever he goes out to battle everytime he go back, there’s always guests waiting for him. Chen Qun was one of these guests, he apologize for causing Kie Fan to hurry has back. Lie Fan just laugh and wave his hand, saying that he was joking. Sun Qian then lead Lie Fan, Jia Xu, and Chen Qun toward the Serenity Inn. As in turns out Yi Ji, Yan Jun, and Zhuge Jin declined the invitation not rest at the Guest room, and choose to stay at Serenity Inn. The three of them doesn’t know each other, but a bond was made as they arrived on the same day asking to meet Lie Fan. So they send time together while waiting for Lie Fan to arrive at Xiapi. When they arrive at the Serenity Inn, Sun Qian ask for theshereavouts of Yi Ji, Yan Jun, and Zhuge Jin to the front desk as he have ask them to keep an eye on these three people. The front desk told them that they were in the 2nd floor, having lunch in a private room. A servant escort them to the room, Sun Qian knocked the door of the private room and announce his presence also saying that Lie Fan is here to see them. The door of the room was opened, and the face of a young man around 17 or 18 years old was shown. He greeted Sun Qian and when he see Lie Fan behind Sun Qian, he greeted him respectfully and depend the door widely, inviting Lie Fan to enter the room. Lie Fan enters the room with Jia Xu, Chen Qun, and Sun Qian. There Lie Fan saw two man in their twenties stand up form their seat, greeting him and his advisors before telling them to takes seat. Lie Fan: “Hello Everyone thank you for wanting to wait for me for about a month, I was assiting Brother Mengde in specifying the Yellow Turbans that rise at Jibei.” Yi Ji: “It’s Okay Governor Lie Fan the three of us understand, first let me introduce myself I’m Yi Ji, the man beside me is Yan Jun and the one who opened the door just now is Zhuge Jin.” Yan Jun: “Greetings Governor Lie Fan I’m Yan Jun, I have long admire your name and the policies you implemented!” Zhuge Jin: “Greetings Governor Lie Fan, I’m Zhuge Jin of the Zhuge family. I have long admire you when I first hear about your exploits, my little brother Zhuge Liang also admired you.” Lie Fan: “Greetings to the three of you, may I know the reason that three of you wanted to meet me?” Yi Ji, Yan Jun, and Zhuge Jin turn their head to look at each other, the three of them stand up and bowed to Lie Fan, with their hand saluting Lie Fan saying that they wanted to enlist their talent to his disposal. Lie Fan look art he three of them, dissent expect that what he thought is true that they wanted to serve him, Lie Fan stand up from his seat also and told them to raise their head.
