I Invest a Hundred Shi of Rice in Liu Bei, and the System Rewards Me with Li Cunxiao

[System] [Three Kingdoms] [Investment Returns] [Power Behind the Throne] [Invincible Generals] [Feel-Good Power Struggle]

In the final years of the Eastern Han dynasty, the Yellow Turbans ravage the land. Su Ran makes a desperate stand in an isolated village with the family's last hundred shi of rice, just as more than a thousand bandits surround the settlement. The walls are about to fall.

At the brink of life and death, the as-yet-unheralded Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei happen to pass by and draw their blades to help. But the bandits are too numerous, and the three men have gone hungry for days. They are gradually losing ground.

"Sir, I ask for a single filling meal. In return, I will protect your village!"

Watching Liu Bei fight desperately, Su Ran awakens the Myriad Worlds Investment System.

"Take the hundred shi of rice in the village as military provisions, with my compliments!"

[Ding! You invested a hundred shi of rice in Liu Bei. A ten-million-fold critical return has been triggered. Congratulations, Host, you have obtained an unparalleled warrior, Li Cunxiao!]

The stockade gate splinters, and the bandits charge in with cruel grins.

Behind Su Ran, Li Cunxiao wields the Yu Wang spear like a demon god descending into the world. One blow turns the bandit chief into a rain of blood!

Looking at the chaos around them and Su Ran, who seems like an immortal from heaven, even Guan Yu, proud beyond compare, and Zhang Fei, the bravest warrior in the army, are struck with profound shock and awe.

From that day on, the Three Kingdoms has a player pulling the strings from behind the scenes.

Cao Cao, you use the emperor to command the warlords? I, Su Ran, use the System to command Liu Bei!

Invest a thousand taels of silver, get the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun in return, and crush the Xiongnu!

Invest a cartload of ordinary iron, get three thousand divine repeating crossbows in return, and blanket the land with arrows!

Invest a single withered blade of grass, get a supreme life-extending elixir in return, and bring the dead back to life!

At Hulao Pass, Lu Bu boasts that he is invincible beneath heaven.

Su Ran reclines in his easy chair and drains his wine. "Cunxiao, go teach him how to behave."
