Su Ying, who was wearing a silver mask, walked through Xin Zheng. The system's notification sounded in his mind, causing the corners of his mouth under the mask to curl up slightly. He did not expect to receive an unexpected reward.
"Stop, search…Ah, you, you are?!”
"I am Ge Nia."
"That, that Chief Swordsman Ge Nia of the State of Qin.”
At this moment, a sound from below attracted Su Ying's attention. He stopped and looked down. On the streets of Xinzheng, guards surrounded a carriage. Beside the carriage stood a handsome young man with a calm temperament and sharp eyes. He gave people the feeling that he was a famous sword that had been unsheathed, showing off its sharpness.
Ge Nia…
Would Ying Zheng be in this carriage?
Su Ying stood on the roof and looked down at Ge Nia and the carriage beside him with great interest. He was still very interested in the one emperor in history, the Ancestral Dragon Ying Zheng.
"Who is it?"
Ge Nia keenly sensed that Su Ying was looking in his direction. The guards around him also looked over and saw Su Ying standing on the roof with a silver mask.
"As expected of the chief swordmaster of the State of Qin, your senses are sharp.”The masked Su Ying said to Ge Nia.
Ge Nia's hand was already on the hilt of his sword, and his sharp eyes were fixed on Su Ying.”
He couldn't feel any aura at all, nor was there any killing intent. Who was he?
Ta Ta Ta Ta!
With the sound of hurried footsteps, an armored soldier ran into the field with sweat all over his forehead."Commandant Zhao Li, something bad has happened. The Great General and Lord Blood Strike Marquis have been killed.”
"W-what did you say?" The Han Country's captain named Zhao Li's eyes widened. Ge Nia also looked over, feeling a little shocked.
Ji Wuye was dead?
"It's, it's true. I, I heard that he was killed by a man wearing a silver mask in General Manor.”
The commandant named Zhao Li was shocked when he heard this. He looked at Su Ying on the roof. The guards beside him also widened their eyes at Su Ying with a trace of fear.
Ge Nia was also startled when he heard this, and he looked at Su Ying on the roof in shock.
The soldier who came to carry the letter followed their gaze and looked up. He saw Su Ying, who was wearing a silver mask and standing on the roof with his arms crossed, looking at them quietly. His eyes gradually widened, and his pupils rapidly contracted. His eyes were filled with fear." Silver, silver, silver mask…"
"System, find out more about the Eight Petites.”
[Exploration will consume 400 reading points. Do you wish to continue?]
"Continue."
Remaining 1678 reading points, probing…probing complete, transmitting information…transmitting complete.
Su Ying took a step forward and appeared on the street like an illusion. He walked toward Ge Nia under the frightened gazes of all the soldiers and generals.
When he reached Ge Nia's side, Su Ying stopped and whispered a few words. Ge Nia's eyes narrowed slightly, and he moved his hand away from the hilt of his sword.
"Why are you telling us this?”Ge Nia looked at the mysterious man who was wearing a silver mask and facing him from the side. However, his voice sounded very young.
"I want the person behind you to owe me a favor.”After Su Ying finished speaking, he disappeared on the spot like a phantom.
The next morning, in Han Fei's courtyard, Ying Zheng, dressed in white, looked at the stone pool and the dark bamboo by the wall with his back to Ge Nie.
"Is that all?" Ying Zheng said.
"Not bad." Ge Nia replied.
"Interesting." Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly." If the news he brought is true, what's wrong with me owing him a favor?”
"I will go with Junior Brother to investigate.”
"Yes."
Early morning, Purple Orchid Pavilion.
Su Ying was packing his things when Violet pushed the door open and walked in.
"Miss Violet, it's very rude to enter without knocking.”Su Ying shook his head with his back facing her.
"You've already killed Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei. Xin Zheng is no longer in danger. Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Can't you stay a little longer?" Violet Maiden looked at him with her charming eyes and asked.
Su Ying stopped what he was doing and turned his head to look at Violet Maiden. He smiled and said,""Is Miss Violet unwilling to let me leave?”
Violet Maiden did not say anything and just looked straight at him.
Su Ying sighed softly, shook his head, and continued to pack his things."Although New Zheng doesn't seem to be in any danger on the surface, the undercurrents below are endless and annoying. Moreover…the direction of the general trend makes it impossible to see any hope.”
Violet Girl frowned." What do you mean?”
Su Ying placed the package filled with money and clothes on the desk and sat down beside it. He patted the seat beside him and motioned for Violet Maiden to sit over. Violet Maiden knelt down beside him.
"I'll take this opportunity to tell you something first.”Su Ying met Violet Nu's gaze and slowly said,""First of all, the State of Qin. This time, the Eight Petites 'target is the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, who has come to Xinzheng.”
"What?!" Violet Maiden was shocked.
Su Ying waved his hand to stop her shock and continued," Ge Nia has also come to Xinzheng as the guard of the King of Qin, Ying Zheng. Wei Zhuang has discovered their traces, so he has been in a hurry recently. He was right not to tell you about this. The news of the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, appearing in Xinzheng must not be spread out, or the Han Kingdom will be destroyed.”
" The one who sent the Eight Petites to assassinate Ying Zheng is Marquis Changxin of the State of Qin, Miao Du. This man relies on Lady Zhao's favor and acts without restraint, without the slightest bit of shrewdness. If this assassination fails, he will definitely be attacked by Ying Zheng, and he will definitely lose. Lu Buwei, who had recommended him to Lady Zhao, would also be implicated, and the power of Qin would be in Ying Zheng's hands.”Su Ying picked up the teacup and poured a cup for Violet Maiden.
"At this point, the Eastern Generals of the Qin Country have no pressure at all. This is the external reason why I said that the Han Country does not see any hope. The internal reason is that the King of Han is incompetent. The Han Country has no general after Ji Wuye. The government and the people do not have a good strategy. The country is poor and weak.”
Violet Maiden held the teacup in silence, her beautiful face vaguely visible in the white steam.
"What do you think after hearing what I said?”Su Ying looked at her and asked.
"If what you said is true, then the future of the Han Country is really dark. There is no hope at all.”Violet Girl shook her head and smiled bitterly.
"Zi Lanxuan shouldn't have fallen into the whirlpool of Han.”Su Ying's eyes were bright as he looked at the Violet Maiden and said.
"What do you mean?"
"Get out of the whirlpool in time. Don't make unnecessary sacrifices.”Su Ying stretched out his hand and pulled Violet Nv's hand. He looked at Violet Nv and said," Don't forget our agreement."”
"Yes." The Violet Maiden's hand struggled slightly in Su Ying's hand, but she did not break free and allowed him to play with it.
"Oh right, I have something good for you.”
"What is it now?" Violet Maiden looked curiously at Su Ying as he mysteriously took out a small jade bottle from his bosom. The jade bottle contained a liquid that was flashing with a faint blue light.
"Here you go."
"What is this?"
"Water of Life." Su Ying looked at the small jade bottle in her hand and said somewhat reluctantly. Although he was reluctant, he still felt that it was better to leave this to Violet Girl. It might be able to save a life at a critical moment.
"Water of life? Have you never heard of it before? Is this a treasure of your Heaven Sect? What is there?" Violet Maiden asked.
" There are many uses, such as healing injuries, repairing wounds, restoring internal strength, increasing aptitude, and eternal youth..." Su Ying counted on his fingers.
"Wait, wait." Zi Nu interrupted Su Ying's words. Her beautiful eyes stared intently at Su Ying."Can this really keep you young forever?"
"Yes, sure. However, there are only three drops in total. Don't use it unless you have no other choice.”Su Ying nodded and said.
"Yes." Violet Maiden quickly and solemnly put away the small jade bottle.
