"From today onwards, I will no longer be a chess piece on the chessboard. Even if this chessboard is the world, even if this chess piece is 'handsome', I don't want it.”Ji Yun silently made a promise in his heart.
When you plan for profit, you should plan for the world. When you seek fame, you should seek eternal fame!
Since he was reborn, how could he live a mediocre life? The Hundred Schools of Philosophy and heroes rose up together, how could they not know the heroes of the world? War and war are in chaos, why not step on mountains and rivers?
The world's wind and clouds come from my generation, once I enter the Jianghu, the years will urge me; The emperor's plan to dominate the world was to talk and laugh, but he was drunk in life.
At this moment, Ji Yun was clear about his goal. At this moment, Ji Yun stepped onto the path of a formidable and ambitious man.
What was an ambitious person?
A promise, a lifetime of shackles, a sad ending, this was a hero. To tell a big lie and make the whole world dance with it, while he watched coldly from the side, this was a formidable person.
Although Ji Yun didn't want to be an ambitious person, it didn't stop him from walking the path of an ambitious person. Because he enjoyed the process.
Wouldn't it be great to set up a shocking chess game with the land of the Nine Provinces as the plate and all living beings as the children?
Donghuang Taiyi, wait for me! The world is waiting for me!
The two people at the foot of the hill felt the completely different aura that Ji Yun emitted from his body, and they had different thoughts.
It wasn't hard to tell what Bing Lan was thinking from the surprise in her eyes. To her, no, not just her. As for her, Yan Yu, and An Ying, they had already entrusted their lives to Young Master Ji Yun. Now that Ji Yun had transformed and become even stronger, how could she not be happy?
At this moment, Wang Jian's heart only sank. The gaze he looked at Ji Yun with became extremely complicated. There was gratification, praise, admiration, vigilance, and unease. Wang Jian had only ever felt such an imposing manner from one person before, and that person was the current King of Great Qin-Ying Zheng. But such an aura also appeared on Ji Yun's body now. How could Wang Jian not be alarmed?
"Sigh, I hope it's not as I think. Otherwise, the world that has just calmed down will be in chaos again.”With all sorts of thoughts, Wang Jian still dismissed the thought of reporting this matter.
Ji Yun turned around and walked towards Wang Jian and Bing Lan with a faint smile on his face. However, compared to the slightly confused and forced smile from before, the smile now contained a relaxed confidence and a hint of disdain.
"Congratulations on your breakthrough, young master.”Ice Blue bowed to Ji Yun and said happily.
Ji Yun nodded and waved his right hand. A surge of energy lifted Ice Blue's body up.
Ji Yun looked at Wang Jian. Although the current Wang Jian had already regained his calm and looked no different from usual, Ji Yun sensed the trace of fear and uneasiness in Wang Jian's heart. This was also due to the benefits of this breakthrough. Ji Yun could slightly sense some of the emotions and state of mind of others.
Thinking about it, Ji Yun understood where Wang Jian's fear and unease came from. Ji Yun was also somewhat helpless about this, but he absolutely did not want to cause a rift with Wang Jian because of this.
A few ways to remedy the situation quickly flashed through Ji Yun's mind. He had a plan in his heart and bowed to Wang Jian."Yun was able to break the nightmare in his heart this time thanks to the old general's guidance.”
To Ji Yun, bending his waist halfway was a great bow. At least, he did not do so to Ying Zheng back then. Wang Jian calmly accepted this bow. Ignoring everything else, just the fact that he had given Ji Yun many pointers was enough for him to receive this bow. However, with this bow, Wang Jian felt much more relaxed. He could tell that this bow was sincere, so Wang Jian was still at ease with Ji Yun like this.
Wang Jian went forward to help Ji Yun up and said with a laugh,""Tianlan, there's no need to be so polite. You were able to see through the obstacles in your heart this time because of yourself.”
"Ji Yun cannot forget the old general's teachings and guidance.”Ji Yun stood up and changed his tone,""Old General, don't worry. Yun's intentions are not in this world.”
Wang Jian was stunned, knowing that Ji Yun had seen through his thoughts. Looking at Ji Yun's clear eyes, Wang Jian chose to trust him. He extended his right hand and patted Ji Yun's shoulder before turning around and walking towards the camp.
"Let's go. They're still waiting for the meeting.”
"Don't worry, Elder Wang. Your descendants won't die as tragically as in history.”Ji Yun was touched by Wang Jian's decision. He knew how to repay kindness, and he silently made a promise in his heart.
"Thank you for always being by my side.”Ji Yun reached out his right hand and gently caressed his ice-blue cheek, his expression gentle.
Seeing Ji Yun's sudden intimate actions, Ice Blue was stunned for a moment before she reacted. Her crystal-clear eyes swirled, and her long eyelashes blinked nervously. Her fair skin under the veil was also quietly stained with a touch of pink, and she was extremely beautiful.
"No. It was nothing. these. This is what we should do."
Ji Yun didn't expect that his actions would cause such a huge reaction from Ice Blue. At this moment, she no longer looked like the high and mighty heir of the Young Empress of the Yin-Yang School, nor did she look like the icy beauty who kept others at bay. Feeling the temperature of the skin under his palm slowly rising and the girl's gradually disordered breathing, Ji Yun retracted his hand and suddenly felt a little reluctant to part with her. Looking at Ice Blue's bashful eyes that hid her anticipation and joy, and thinking about how Ice Blue had been following him silently all these years, Ji Yun sighed inwardly. There were some things that needed to be explained. There was also the pitiful girl who was also wearing a veil at the Yin-Yang School's headquarters.
Ji Yun held onto Ice Blue's delicate hand and didn't say anything along the way. Ice Blue also allowed Ji Yun to hold onto her hand as they walked in, silently following them. However, it wasn't hard to tell from her absent-minded appearance that her heart was somewhere else. Ji Yun only let go of his hand when he walked into the Qin camp. He smiled and said," You can go back first. I have something to say after the meeting is over."”
"Yes." Ice Blue replied softly. Along the way, her little face was still red. At this moment, under Ji Yun's gaze, she did not dare to look down.
" Haha..." Ji Yun found Ice Blue's actions very interesting. If the Yin-Yang School saw this, they might be shocked.
…Enthusiastic and excited. This was Ji Yun's first thought when he walked into the main tent.
Wang Jian sat at the head of the table, while the generals stood in two rows. At this moment, regardless of whether it was the young Li Xin or Meng Tian, or the old Meng Wu or Feng Quji, they were all excitedly discussing something. This scene caused saliva to fly everywhere. After entering the tent, all the generals instantly looked at Ji Yun. Then, the tent fell into a short silence. Ji Yun smiled and cupped his hands at everyone. He then walked to the right and stood at the head of the row.
"Eh?" Apart from Wang Jian, everyone else was sizing up Ji Yun with a strange look in their eyes, as if it was their first time seeing him. Many people even frowned slightly. Clearly, these people had noticed Ji Yun's change, but they couldn't tell the details.
Meng Tian, who was second on the right, also stared at Ji Yun. Seeing that she could not see anything, she patted Ji Yun's shoulder and asked,""Oh, it's Ji Yun. Why do I feel like you're different?”
All the generals nodded in curiosity. Ji Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He shook his head helplessly and said," I'm Ji Yun, the real one!"”Wang Jian was also happy. He knocked on the table." Alright, back to the main topic."”
Seeing that all the generals had regained their senses, Wang Jian continued,""This time, our army won a great victory over the Chu army and beheaded more than 220,000 people. I've already submitted a memorial to the king. After we completely wipe out the Chu Country, we'll reward them according to their merits.”
The first sentence made the generals in the tent excited. Why did he join the army? Wasn't it all for the sake of becoming a marquis? This was a great victory, so there was no need to mention the merits.
Wang Jian raised his right hand, signaling for silence.
"Sima Xin, how are our casualties?”
The fourth general on the right stepped forward and cupped his hands towards Wang Jian."Reporting to the general, our army has lost 81,000 men. 4,300 of them are seriously injured and unable to fight.”
Wang Jian nodded." Quickly collect the bodies of the dead and cremate them. Send the heavily injured back to the country for treatment."”
"Yes." Sima Xin returned to the battle formation.
"I'm afraid Xiang Yan won't send troops again after this great victory. What do you think of the upcoming battle?”
The generals habitually looked at Ji Yun. Ji Yun didn't reject anything and stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said,""Based on the conclusion we came to earlier, after this battle, Xiang Yan will definitely be able to control the entire Chu army. Now that it was snowing heavily and the winter was cold, it was not suitable to fight again. Everything had to wait until spring. These days should be enough for Xiang Yan to persuade the Chu Kingdom to retreat.”
"If that's the case, then prepare Xiang Yan to retreat. When the time comes, it will be difficult for our army to pursue him. If Xiang Yan were to retreat to Jiangnan and use the river east as the foundation to unite the Yue people to fight on land and water, it would be difficult for our army to take them down.”A general with a white beard on his left frowned. Meng Wu was the son of the Great General of Qin, the famous general Meng Ao, and the father of Meng Tian.
The generals frowned when they heard this. This problem was indeed very tricky. Most importantly, when would Xiang Yan withdraw his troops? How to retreat? This timing and route was too important for the Qin army.
"Send more scouts to keep an eye on the Chu army. Send spies into the Chu army to investigate. We must find out Xiang Yan's plan, especially the time and route of the Chu army's retreat.”Wang Jian was unable to weigh the pros and cons for a moment and could only make such arrangements first.
"General, I suggest that the Black Ice Platform keep a close watch on Shouchun, especially the Qu family.”At this moment, Ji Yun stepped forward and said meaningfully.
Huh? The generals were stunned when they heard Ji Yun's words. They were still closely monitoring Shouchun? What was the deeper meaning?
Wang Jian was the first to react, his face moved. Soon after, Feng Quji, Li Xin, and the others who were more sensitive to politics also understood. They were also shocked.
Seeing that a portion of the people had already guessed it, while the rest were frowning and looking curious, Ji Yun didn't keep them in suspense." General, you're right. It's a mutiny."”
Even those who had already guessed it were still shocked.
Wang Jian frowned deeply. If Xiang Yan really rebelled and deposed Fu Chu to establish another King of Chu, or even become independent, that would be troublesome.
"I will immediately report it to the higher ups and ask Yao Jia to pay more attention to Shouchun and Qu.”
Ji Yun nodded. This was all he could do for now.
