"It’s impossible, doing this would only show Lu Bu as a vulgar person who lusts for physical pleasure. But is that really the kind of person Lu Bu is? No, even though Dong Zhuo was hanged by Lu Bu, in my eyes, wasn’t this also a form of liberation?"

"Love and indulgence are opposites. Dong Zhuo was immersed in wine, women, wealth, and greed, pursuing what every tyrant would pursue, while Lu Bu sought a long-lasting love. This destined their relationship to end in tragedy."

"The world does not understand this doomed couple, a relationship that must be kept hidden. Maybe this is the best outcome after all..."

Wang Ze immediately denied it, his words sincere and his eyes sorrowful.

"What is this, Wang Ze, are you just being a trendy follower? Have you actually seen it? If you have, you’d know that at the start of the story, Lu Bu was attracted to Dong Zhuo by his appearance!" Qin Zeyu was angry.

"Who’s not seen it? I’ve watched it four times. The plot is like that, true. But, Ze Yu, have you considered that if Lu Bu really wanted to, don’t you think he wouldn’t lack men?" Wang Ze responded calmly, despite the questioning.

Qin Zeyu fell silent.

"But all in all, it truly is an excellent work. After finished flying, diving into reading it provides a unique taste."

Seeing the topic reach this point, Bai Bufan also abandoned unofficial histories and joined in the trash talk, having a lot to say:

"Truthfully, this comic achieved success due to its art style, yet also failed because of it. From Lu Bu becoming an adopted son, initially fostering a murderous intent, and then letting go of his hatred to developing love for Dong Zhuo—that moment must have been psychologically intense, moving from obedience, to reluctance, to loving Dong Zhuo. It feels like at the start, Dong Zhuo pursued Lu Bu’s affections to plead for mercy. One could say Dong Zhuo chose Lu Bu to survive, yet considerable love certainly blossomed for Lu Bu, until the appearance of Diao Chan exposed Dong Zhuo’s initial intentions."

"Until Lu Bu decided to execute Dong Zhuo, and that line from Dong Zhuo, ’The past...,’ Lu Bu realized Dong Zhuo was merely trying to survive and woo him like before. ’The past? You’re talking about the past?’ He recalled the little moments shared with his beloved, until a third person appeared, and Dong Zhuo even violently expelled his lover."

"Each time Lu Bu mentioned the past, he’d think of Dong Zhuo’s betrayal. When truly executing Dong Zhuo, he softened like the first time."

"’Have you anything to say?’ "

"This line was truly superb. Dong Zhuo’s mood must have been special, fragile, until—"

"’Nothing to say, please proceed swiftly.’ "

"Oh my god!"

"Perhaps what Lu Bu thought was to sever this relationship with one cut, freeing himself from lingering feelings. Nonetheless, the memories were too overwhelming, Lu Bu must have been heartbroken, recalling that first meeting place left a weary and bitter struggle for him and for us too."

Bai Bufan’s love for the figures from the Three Kingdoms is genuine.

Including, of course, Dong Zhuo.

Wang Ze found a soulmate and nodded emphatically:

"So right, Bufan. That last glance from Dong Zhuo at the execution ground, I imagine Lu Bu must have been filled with regret. He opened his mouth but found no words...

The wind blew, the crowd dispersed, yet Lu Bu stood on the execution ground, staring blankly at his hanged lover, speechless for a long time...

Later, no one knew how long he sat in that temple where they first met, only knowing that a fearless yet merciless war god, Lu Bu, emerged on the battlefield... He became ensnared by rumors and manipulations, ultimately killing his beloved by his own hand, watching him die, I think, the greatest pain in the world is none greater than this..."

Lin Li couldn’t hold back any longer.

Honestly, anyone who can resist the urge to stick their head out and get trapped in this mess now probably has kicked a drug habit—they’re too busy for breakfast, joining the discussion with a jog, addressing not Bai Bufan and Wang Ze, but to the grimacing folks around:

"Honestly, don’t focus too much on their superficial appearance. From an emotional aspect, this work truly can be considered a masterpiece. Maybe you criticize their outward display, but you cannot deny that deep inner feelings,"

"At first, I found it pretty strange too, but gradually discovered the genuine emotions emerging from deep within them. Love is originally a beautiful thing, Lu Bu was indeed embittered by love."

"His heart was full of emotions, wishing solely for a tender love with Dong Zhuo, yet Dong Zhuo was also career-minded, perhaps wanting to conquer more lands, giving Lu Bu a secure home. Viewing from both perspectives, indeed, neither were easy—true pairs of doomed lovers. Maybe you’ll say, let me take my lovers and gobble up a big portion, well then, I’ll eat that big portion."

Zhou Baowei remained expressionless.

He was flanked by Lin Li on one side, Qin Zeyu on the other, Bai Bufan behind him, and Wang Ze behind them.

Zhou Baowei wasn’t sure whether he was the one consuming the big portion or the big portion was devouring him.

Bai Bufan: "Damn! Wang Ze! When did you come behind me!"

"Alright, alright, I’d say stop debating. The officials have already weighed in, isn’t the hint in Three Kingdoms Kill clear? Female characters attack Dong Zhuo need two dodges, male characters only need one, but uniquely Lu Bu is different, he attacks Dong Zhuo needing two dodges as well."

Seeing Lin Li still not offering breakfast, Zhang Haoyang came over self-pickup takeout and also summarized.
