Chapter 13: Instant Kill Target (Part 2)

  "How is it? Is it famous? What kind of role?" Xu Shu heard this and immediately became excited.

  Xu Shu's eyes widened as she stared at him, her red face filled with anticipation. Wang Xu nodded after a brief moment of silence, smiling wryly. "Yes, they're quite famous. Wang Xiong was nicknamed 'Drilling Heaven Dragon', and Wang Fei was nicknamed 'Entering Earth Python'. They were two brothers who served as generals under Cao Cao's command. Their physical appearance was also extraordinary, with exceptional martial arts skills, making them one of the most powerful infantrymen under Cao Cao."

  Just as Xu Shu was getting into the conversation, Wang Xu suddenly stopped talking. Xu Shu couldn't help but ask urgently: "Why do you always stop halfway through your sentences? What achievements did they actually have?"

  With a pretended hesitant expression, Wang Xu suddenly revealed a playful smile at the corner of his mouth. He glanced at Xue Shu and waited until she was about to recall the ultimate move from her previous life. Then he replied slowly: "Actually, I don't know what great achievements they have made either. All I know is that the most famous one was Zhao Zilong's seven advances and retreats on Changban Slope!"

  "It can't be Zhao Yun's target for a quick kill, right?!" As soon as the words fell, Xu Shu's face changed in an instant.

  "Congratulations, you're correct! Add ten points! Yeah!"

  “……”

  Xu Shufen looked at him with a mixture of shock and concern, while Wang Xu's face also fell. He sighed helplessly: "That's the fact! What can I do? That's what it says in the book."

  "What I'm worried about isn't this!" With a sigh, Xu Shu took over the conversation: "Now that you know those things, you definitely won't let your brothers in this life die in vain, right? Besides, I reckon you can't possibly let them follow Cao Cao either! So, I think the real key is another issue!"

  Here is the translation:

  At this point, Xu Shu raised her head and stared at Wang Xu for a long time before calmly saying: "Your younger brother Wang Xiong is still young, so we can temporarily not mention him. But your older brother Wang Fei is three years older than you and is now 11 years old. His martial arts skills are 'extremely good', to the point where they are only slightly inferior to ours! If what you said earlier was true, then at this rate of development, I estimate that in the future we will be able to exchange one move with Zhao Yun, and if we were to use their words, we probably won't die 'too quickly' either..."

  "Congratulations, you're right again! Add twenty points!" Upon hearing Xu Shu's sarcasm, Wang Xu immediately retorted with a wry smile.

  He couldn't help but sigh and say, "How would I not know this?! We think we're good at martial arts, but in reality, we can only exchange a few moves with the guards at home. If we continue like this, even though our talent is considered top-notch, we'll ultimately become just a few small-time actors, playing minor roles. On the stage of the Three Kingdoms where famous generals emerge, we'll only get killed instantly!

  Upon hearing Wang Xu's words, Xue Shu also sighed and couldn't help but complain: "At first, I thought the Wang family's kung fu was so profound, but now I realize it's not even worth mentioning. What a waste of all the trouble I went through to learn martial arts in the first place!"

  It can't be said that way, this has nothing to do with the Wang family's mental discipline and martial arts. The problem is that fundamentally no one really understands these mental disciplines and martial arts. The people around us, including your father and my father are all literati, their kung fu is just mediocre, third-rate characters, in my estimation only slightly better than ordinary small generals. So, you haven't seen my father rushing around every day like an ant on a hot pot looking for masters?

  As Wang Xu spoke, Xu Shu's delicate eyebrows furrowed even tighter.

  "Alright! Let's just go with the flow, there's still time, let's not think about these things for now." Wang Xu knew that these matters couldn't be rushed, so he comforted himself and suppressed his worries to the bottom of his heart. "Wen Ya, actually what I'm thinking most about in my heart right now isn't these things. For the past eight years, I've been constantly reminiscing about everything from my past life. Earlier when we recognized each other, I even thought of my parents and family from that previous life. I don't know how much they would have missed us after our disappearance! And friends, I really miss them so much!"

  But as soon as he spoke, Wang Xu knew that he had inadvertently mentioned something he shouldn't have due to the weight on his mind.

  As expected, when he turned to look at Xu Shu, the delicate face was no longer worried, but instead a deep sorrow, and the bright eyes were covered with a layer of mist.

  Wang Xu wanted to comfort her with a few words and make up for his mistake, but when the words reached his lips, he couldn't say anything. After all, he couldn't muster up the energy in his heart either. In the end, he could only let out a forced sigh. "Ah! Fortunately, neither of us is an only child, so Dad and Mom won't be left without anyone to take care of them!"

  This is also the most real voice of the two people. In these years, the pain that they can't bear in their hearts is the eternal farewell with their lovers and closest relatives.

  Wang Xu and Xue Wenya are now reunited, but their distant relatives can only become an eternal concern and pain in their hearts, secretly placed deep within...

  Just as Wang Xu and Xue Shu were deeply absorbed in their thoughts of transcending time and space, a maid rushed over in a flurry.

  After looking around for a while, he finally saw the two people sitting in the pavilion and immediately shouted loudly: "Young Master, Young Master!"

  As she spoke, she lifted her skirt with both hands and walked quickly over. From a distance, she shouted: "Young master, the master has an urgent matter, asking you to go to the main hall immediately, everyone has been looking for you for a long time!"

  Wang Xu quickly came back to her senses when she called out to herself, hastily letting go of Xu Shu's hand. In her heart, she also secretly let out a sigh of relief, fortunately earlier she hadn't hugged Xu Shu in her arms, otherwise if they were seen it would be embarrassing, at such a young age earning the reputation of being a lecher!

  Xu Shu also reacted in time, hastily using her sleeve to wipe away the tears on her face and quickly sat up straight.

  "What's so urgent?" Wang Xu asked in puzzlement as he faced the maid who had run over.

  The maid slightly bowed and immediately replied, "I heard that the master has found a famous teacher for you. The master is delighted and is waiting in the main hall, wants young master to go over there at once!"

  Before he could finish speaking, Wang Xu suddenly stood up. "Are you serious?"

  "Young master, how dare I deceive you?" The maid couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile when she saw Wang Xu's urgent look.

  Having received a definite answer, Wang Xu and Xu Shu exchanged a glance, the depression of just now was swept away, and their eyes were filled with indescribable joy. With a slight nod at Xu Shu, Wang Xu didn't say another word, and ran towards the front hall.

  How could Wang Xu not be anxious? The words of comfort to Xu Shu just now were also comforting himself. As someone who loves history and the military, he knew better than anyone what a powerful martial skill like his could do in the Three Kingdoms.

  Perhaps many people will also say that scholars can still achieve great things, which is not wrong, but he knows that he is not the kind of person who can completely rely on his intelligence to conquer everything. Moreover, pure scholars are basically under someone else's account as strategists, Wang Xu will not be willing, he has a more ambitious goal and ideal.
