Liu Xiao transmigrates to the eve of the eighteen warlords' alliance, as Luoyang goes up in flames.
On the brink of death, he activates the Heroic Spirits' River System and is randomly bound to a young Huo Qubing template.
Riding alone, he scatters the pursuing Xiliang troops and saves Cai Yong and his daughter as they flee.
"I'm Liu Xiao. I wish to serve Lord Xuande!" He blocks Liu Bei's horse outside the warlords' camp.
When Cao Cao tries to recruit him, Liu Xiao is whispering to Liu Bei: "Xuzhou is surrounded by enemies on all sides. Taking it would be perilous. We should set our sights on Jingzhou and Xiangyang!"
When the warlords go their separate ways, Liu Bei is left with only a thousand or so battered troops.
Liu Xiao points to the map. "Head to Nanyang, where Wolong and Fengchu await, along with Huang Zhong and Wei Yan!"
