Sun Ce frowned immediately and asked in confusion, "Why? Does Gongjin think I shouldn't kill my father to avenge him?"
Zhou Yu shook his head and explained, "Our most urgent task right now is to take Jingzhou!"

"Master, who do you think will take Qingzhou, Yuan Shao or Cao Cao?" Lai Fu asked.
A subtle smile appeared on Lu Li's lips as he said, "Cao Cao!"
