Jing Ke, this name did not have much of an impact on the people of Yan Country at this time.
After all, that incident had not happened yet. Moreover, Jing Ke's true fame only came after his death. Now, in the eyes of the people of Yan Country, only his identity as a hanger-on of Crown Prince Dan was worthy of people's attention.
Moreover, there was a limit to how much they could look at him. In this day and age, most nobles had a few hanger-ons, and some especially powerful people even had thousands of hanger-ons.
It was also because of this that they could not understand Gao Ge's current feelings.
Jing Ke! He was a legendary figure that had been passed down through the ages. Although he was not a household name, he could be said to be well-known to the young and old.
Although he had come to the end of the Warring States Period and could hear about those legendary figures all day long, and even guessed that he might meet them in person and interact with them, Gao Ge felt mixed emotions when he really experienced this moment.
"Yan Dan is good at raising warriors, and his aim is to repay the strong. Gather a hundred good men, and at the end of the year you will be a minister of state. A gentleman dies to know his confidant, and he carries his sword out of Yanjing.……It's a pity that my swordsmanship is too weak, and I can't make great achievements. Although the man is dead, he still has feelings after thousands of years.”The later generations had different opinions about Jing Ke. Some praised him, while others criticized him. However, it was undeniable that he was a man of great courage from the fact that he dared to go against the Qin Dynasty, even if he was forced to go because he was soft-hearted.
Gao Ge sighed slightly, and a strange light flashed in his eyes. He looked at Jing Ke, who was attacking the middle-aged man in Confucian robes again." I didn't expect it to be him! In that case, the assassination of Qin should be coming soon! It is said that the assassination of Qin was the second year after the destruction of Zhao, and now the Qin country has already begun the war to destroy Zhao…"
After the assassination of Qin, Ying Zheng attacked the Yan Kingdom in a fit of anger. Although he did not destroy the Yan Kingdom, he basically crippled it.
"In that case, we have to consider our retreat!”
Gao Ge's heart was filled with helplessness. Just like what Ji Zhi had said, the world was not peaceful!
He let out a sigh of relief and calmed his thoughts. He then looked at the battle in the arena. After all, this kind of swordsman competition scene was rare. From the fact that so many people were running around, it could be seen how boring their daily life was. At the same time, it could also be seen from the side that the competition was rare.
On the battlefield, Jing Ke held his sword in his hand. He pointed it down and pushed the sword edge. He took a step forward with his right foot. Circles of air waves spread out from his right foot.
"Heaven Shocking Sword!"
Jing Ke's body moved like lightning as he leaped up. In the blink of an eye, he was three feet above the middle-aged man's head. At the same time, he drew the sword in his hand sideways and slashed down diagonally from above.
After a long and fruitless battle, Jing Ke's heart was restless. He finally used the strongest killing move he was proud of, the Heaven-shocking Eighteen Swords!”
The Eighteen Shocking Swords were the eighteen ultimate sword moves that Jing Ke had created by observing the form of the strange beast that he had encountered in the mountains during the Great Sorrow and comprehending the sword manual left behind by his master, Gongsun Yu.
And because it was created in the midst of great sorrow, each sword move carried a sense of sorrow and death.
It was Liji who was sad, and hated that she was far away from home, and that she could not see him. And the one he wanted to destroy was naturally the tyrant Ying Zheng, who had personally made this situation happen.
The sword slashed down, and the fierce force blew the messy long hair of the middle-aged man opposite him. It was about to hit the man.
The man's expression changed when he saw Jing Ke use his killing move. He was greatly shocked and smelled the ferocity of this move. He immediately leaned back and gathered his Qi. He tapped the ground with the horn of his foot and used the huge rebound force to throw himself away.
At the same time, as he was retreating, the man's thin sword was tilted to the side, and the edge of the sword was swung horizontally. With a swoosh, it cut through the sky.
"Ding!" The two swords clashed, and the weapons clashed. Sparks flew in all directions, and the two swords were in a stalemate in the air.
The " Heaven Shocking Sword " was blocked. Jing Ke was exhausted. He was about to fall from the sky, but his expression was still as calm as usual. The moment his body fell, he gathered a strand of Internal Qi on his empty left palm.
With a bang, his left palm struck the ground. The ground paved with green bricks instantly shattered, and brick fragments flew everywhere.
Because of this palm, Jing Ke's falling body was thrown up again due to the rebound of his inner Qi.
In midair, Jing Ke pulled his sword back and flipped his body rapidly. With his body as the axis, the long sword in his hand formed a ring and slashed at the middle-aged man like a storm of pear blossoms.
The middle-aged man was shocked again. He could not rush to counterattack with his sword, so he could only brace himself to receive this combo.
Ding ding…
No one knew how many swords Jing Ke had struck out in that instant. They only knew that his sword was fast and brutal, carrying a chilling murderous aura. This was the resentment in his heart that he had not been able to vent for a long time.
A moment later, Jing Ke's attack landed and his body fell from mid-air. He knelt down on one knee, lowered his head, and stabbed his sword into the green brick in front of him.
The black flowing sea hung down, covering his eyes, making it difficult for others to know his current expression and state.
Opposite him, the middle-aged man who was fighting with him was breathing in disorder. His face was pale, and his right hand was trembling. His thumb and forefinger had split open, and blood was flowing down.
They landed on the ground and blossomed into bright plum blossoms.
"What a fast sword!"
Gao Ge sucked in a breath of cold air. In that instant, Jing Ke's sword was so fast that it was unimaginable. It was so fast that there wasn't even a sword light.
"No wonder Yan Dan sent him to assassinate Qin. It turns out that everything was based on reason.”Gao Ge thought to himself. If someone told him that Jing Ke's swordsmanship was sparse, he would definitely not believe it.
"Moreover, his opponent is not an ordinary person!”Gao Ge then looked at Jing Ke's opponent, the middle-aged man who was in a sorry state. Although the middle-aged man was injured, it was obvious that he was also a master of swordsmanship from the fact that he was able to block Jing Ke's quick sword combo in a hurry.
" It's just a pity…" Ji Zhi shook his head. He had not spoken much since the beginning." The winner is out!"”
The voice was not loud, but it caused Gao Ge to be surprised.
"The outcome is decided just like that?" Gao Ge turned around and looked at Ji Zhi with uncertainty. He really didn't know much about martial arts. Right now, he could only vaguely tell that the middle-aged man was at a disadvantage. However, it was too early to say that the outcome was already decided!
"You'll know when you see it. This is the last move!”
Ji Zhi didn't explain much and just let Gao Ge see for himself. After saying this, he turned his head and looked at Jing Ke.
When Gao Ge heard this, he immediately turned his head and looked over seriously.
Opposite the middle-aged man, Jing Ke, who was kneeling on one knee with his head lowered, slowly raised his head.
What kind of gaze was this! Looking at Jing Ke, the middle-aged man's heart trembled, and he actually felt fear.
His gaze was merciless and bloodthirsty. He stared at the middle-aged man like a ferocious beast staring at its prey, as if it would pounce and tear him apart in the next second.
The baleful aura slowly condensed on the Jing Ke Sword, compressed, and then condensed again…
This cycle repeated, and a sword filled with killing intent took shape. The sword tip slightly shook, and a huge pressure enveloped everyone's hearts. It made one's heart feel like it was being crushed by a mountain.
" This sword…" Gao Ge was shocked when he saw the sword in Jing Ke's hand.
Beside Gao Ge, the unfathomable Ji Zhi also had a grave expression.
Everyone was staring at Jing Ke and... the sword!
"Five Steps of the Eighteen Shocking Swords…Ultimate Kill!”
Within five steps, a hundred men could not stand up to him, and a sword could kill ten thousand chariots!
The distance between the middle-aged man and Jing Ke was exactly five steps, and he was in the center of Jing Ke's baleful aura, so the pressure he felt was naturally the deepest.
Therefore, he could only look on in despair as a black shadow charged at him with lightning.
In the blink of an eye, Jing Ke's figure was already standing behind the man. He slowly returned the long sword to the scabbard on his back without any hesitation.
"Truly…such a fast sword!" The middle-aged man looked down at his chest. Near his heart, there was an unusually small wound that was bleeding a few drops of blood.
Pu pu pu pu pu…
Suddenly, blood spurted out like a fountain.
The man spat out these words before his body fell to the ground.
The Five Steps Absolute Kill Sword was worthy of its name! With a single strike, the outcome was decided!
Without caring about the man's life or death, Jing Ke left with his sword on his back. He really did not leave behind a cloud, only a bloody ground…
Jing Ke's departure meant that the battle had ended. Everyone had already scattered in an instant, without any intention of lingering.
On the ground, there was only blood and a man whose life and death were unknown.
"How heartless!" Gao Ge sneered. It was unknown if he was referring to Jing Ke or the crowd that had gathered earlier.
"You want to save him?" Seeing that Gao Ge did not leave after the crowd had left and instead stayed where he was, Ji Zhi turned his head slightly.
"We can't just leave him here!" Gao Ge replied and walked to the middle-aged man's side. He lowered his body and pressed his hand on the man's twitching wound.
Gao Ge's little hand was instantly dyed red with blood, but he did not care about this. No matter what, he had to stop the bleeding first.
"He's hopeless!" Ji Zhi walked to Gao Ge's side and shook his head.
A duel had taken away a fresh life. Swordsmen were truly the most heartless people in the world.
" But..." Gao Ge wanted to say something. He could not accept the loss of a life. No matter what, he could not give up the last glimmer of hope.
" This, this…" Gao Ge was about to argue with Ji Zhi when the middle-aged man's voice entered his ears.
Gao Ge looked down and saw the middle-aged man's left hand trembling. He raised it several times, trying to take something out of his chest.
However, he did not take it out in the end. Jing Ke's sword had already broken his heart and meridians. He forced himself to say a word and spat out blood, taking away his last breath.
His hand fell and hit the ground heavily. The man did not even say his last wish before he passed away with regret…
"Is there anything here?" The man was dead, and Gao Ge was sad, but he still remembered the man's last action.
Gao Ge reached out his bloody little hand to the man's chest and felt around for a long time. He seemed to have touched something.
"What is it?"
When he took it out, he thought it was a piece of cloth. When he opened it, Gao Ge realized it was a piece of animal skin. On the animal skin, there were words that he didn't know.
"This is?" He stood up and handed the beast skin to Ji Zhi, asking him to take a look at it. In this era, the high-ranking singers were all newcomers. To him, he was illiterate, so he naturally could not recognize these words.
"Hmm? Let me see!" Ji Zhi took the beast skin from Gao Ge's hands and looked down. At first, he was not paying attention to it, but when he saw the name on it, his body suddenly froze…
" Phew…" She took a deep breath and looked at the man's corpse with a strange expression." I didn't expect it to be him!"”
Ji Zhi's words were plain and emotionless, but Gao Ge could still hear a hint of sadness in them.
"Who is he?" Gao Ge asked Ji Zhi.
" The former number one swordsman of Han Country…" Ji Zhi closed his eyes heavily." Yanxiang Sword…K-pop!”
Han Liu was once the best swordsman in Han Country. He was a person who could cut a swallow in the sky into eighteen pieces with a long sword, so his nickname was " Flying Swallow Sword ".
It was said that Jing Ke had challenged many swordsmen when he first came to the Yan Kingdom. Among them was the " Flying Swallow Sword " Han Liu, who lived in the Yan Kingdom at that time. Jing Ke's swordsmanship at that time was not as terrifying as it was now. In the end, he was defeated by Han Liu, and this Han Liu disappeared in the war to destroy Korea not long after.
"In that case, their battle today is for the sake of blood humiliation!”Ji Zhi instantly understood a lot after learning that the middle-aged man was a K-pop.
" Phew…" Ji Zhi exhaled again and patted Gao Ge's head." Let's go!"”
" But this..." Gao Ge looked at Han Liu's corpse and hesitated.
"Let's go back first so that we can get someone to clean up!”
After saying that, Ji Zhi turned around and left. No one knew what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Gao Ge hesitated for a long time. He looked at Han Liu's corpse and then at Ji Zhi's back. His expression kept changing. In the end, he agreed with Ji Zhi's words and jogged towards him…
