After Zhao Tuo received the First Emperor's imperial edict, he immediately gathered the army and made arrangements for the Baiyue region. Then, he personally led 400,000 soldiers of the Great Qin Empire to Xianyang.
At the same time, more and more people were gathering outside Ying Zheng's manor. Judging from the scale, there were tens of thousands of people.
However, most of them were small fries from the farming families and the Network. Of course, there were also many people from the other Hundred Schools of Philosophy and other forces. However, there were only a handful of experts who could make Ying Zheng truly pay attention to them.
Over the past few days, Ying Zheng had already figured out the background of the other party, and there were only four who could give him some trouble.
Ge Nie, Wei Zhuang, Zong Heng, Donghuang Taiyi, the 24 formations of the farmlands formed by the six elders and tens of thousands of disciples of the farmlands, and the traps brought by the Mo family were counted as one.
It seemed that these people had already discussed it, and they were just waiting for an opportunity to launch a final attack on the manor where Ying Zheng was. Moreover, it was obvious that the enemy wanted to surround and kill Ying Zheng here in one wave.
Donghuang Taiyi had just arrived with Xing Hun and the other members of the Yin-Yang School yesterday. As for Wei Zhuang and Quicksand, they had yet to arrive.
Ying Zheng and Yan Lingji disguised themselves for a while, then sneaked out quietly as usual, and came to a tea stall a few miles away from his manor, and sat down.
This tea stall was located at the intersection of Mount Li, Xianyang, and Hangu Pass. Therefore, many people would usually pass by here.
However, ever since the war, the business of this tea stall had not been very good. This was because Wu Guang's army was attacking Hangu Pass. Hangu Pass had been sealed, and there were fewer merchants and tourists coming and going.
However, recently, the business here had suddenly become booming. Many people would pass by here to drink tea every day.
The tea stall was opened by an old man and a little girl. The little girl was called Xiao Cui. She was not tall and not very old, only about eleven or twelve years old. Perhaps because of malnutrition, her figure was very thin. Also because of the constant exposure to the sun and rain, her skin was dark. The clothes on her were very tattered, but very clean.
Every time Ying Zheng sneaked into this place, he would be dressed in a white robe that was as white as snow, with a bamboo hat covering his face.
As for Yan Lingji, she was dressed more conservatively, with a bamboo hat on her head, making it impossible to see her face clearly. She was holding Ying Zheng's Tianwen Sword in her hand, and even the blade of the sword was wrapped in a black cloth, making it impossible to see its appearance clearly.
Like a sword attendant, she followed closely behind Ying Zheng.
"Young Master, are you here to drink tea again?" Seeing Ying Zheng and Yan Lingji sit down, the little girl called Xiao Cui greeted them with a smile. Obviously, the little girl seemed to be very familiar with Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng had indeed been here a few times, because the location of this place was very special. If a large group of outsiders wanted to go to his manor, they would have to pass through this place.
He could find out who had come from here.
Moreover, Ying Zheng was always very generous and generous every time he finished his tea here. Therefore, every time he came here, Little Cui would answer every single question that Ying Zheng asked. After a few times, Little Cui had become familiar with Ying Zheng.
Later on, whenever Ying Zheng came over, she would tell him about some special people passing by these few days, how many people there were, and what weapons and items they brought.
Little Cui brewed a pot of tea for Ying Zheng and Yan Lingji, then began to tell Ying Zheng what had happened in the past few days, and what the leader looked like.
Ying Zheng, on the other hand, rarely spoke, and only listened most of the time.
At this moment, a group of people walked over and sat down under the tea shed.
The leader of this group was a man with long white hair that reached his waist. He had a thin face, a deep outline, and a heavy coat. He looked very cold and held a huge sword in his hand.
Two women followed behind him.
One of the women had purple hair and a pair of purple eyes. She wore a purple fishtail dress with a long hem, revealing her snow-white skin on both sides and back. There were charming cloud patterns on her waist, and she wore black silk and dark purple high heels.
The other one was wearing a red dress that showed off her shoulders. Her long black hair was tied into a unique snake shape. She wore a golden snake-shaped headdress on her head and a jade bead earring with a red snake wrapped around her ear.
A pair of amber eyes, long and thick eyelashes, slightly upturned eyes, light yellow eyeshadow at the end of her eyes, and a pair of red, seductive lips, making her look even more enchanting.
He wore dark purple gloves on his hands and boots with dark purple, gold, and red stripes on his feet.
She had a sword-type weapon that looked like a red snake wrapped around her waist.
Behind them were four men dressed in strange clothes. One of them was very tall and burly, with a height of ten feet.
"It's them!" Yan Lingji, who was standing beside Ying Zheng, could not help but frown when she saw this group of people.
"They are Quicksand. The leader is Wei Zhuang, the woman in purple is Violet Girl, the woman in red is Red Lotus, and the four behind them are Black Qilin, White Phoenix, Hidden Bat, and Peerless Ghost.”Yan Lingji introduced softly to Ying Zheng.
She had dealt with Quicksand before, so she was naturally very familiar with them.
Although Yan Lingji's voice was very soft, it was still difficult to hide from the ears of Wei Zhuang and the other experts.
"Miss, do you know us?" The Purple Girl slowly walked toward Yan Lingji and Ying Zheng's table with her long and slender legs, her eyes falling on Yan Lingji, who was wearing a bamboo hat.
"Who doesn't know the famous Quicksand Organization?”Yan Lingji raised her head slightly and looked at Violet Maiden with a playful expression.
"Do we know each other?" Violet Girl stared at Yan Lingji, as if she wanted to see the face behind the bamboo hat. Her intuition told her that she and the woman in the bamboo hat knew each other.
"So what if I know him? So what if you don't know him?" Yan Lingji continued, her tone still full of playfulness.
"If we know each other, we can sit down and reminisce. If we don't know each other, we can get to know each other and make friends.”Violet Girl smiled at Yan Lingji.
However, Yan Lingji wouldn't believe Violet Maiden's nonsense.
"I'm not interested in you. Why don't I help you ask my young master if he's interested in you?”Yan Lingji said with a teasing look, and then turned her gaze to Ying Zheng, who was sipping tea at the side.
"Hehe, Young Master, I think this younger sister is quite good-looking. Her figure is even more curvy. Why don't I help you tie her back to warm your bed?”Yan Lingji covered her mouth and chuckled at Ying Zheng.
He knew that Yan Lingji had a grudge with Quicksand back in Xinzheng. Now, Yan Lingji was obviously toying with Violet Maiden.
"If you can really kidnap her back, I dare to take her.”Ying Zheng said without any politeness. His tone was very firm, and his face was still expressionless.
He knew that although Yan Lingji's ability was not bad, how could she be a match for Quicksand's people?
After hearing Ying Zheng's words, Yan Lingji was instantly stunned. She couldn't help but roll her eyes at Ying Zheng, thinking that he was too unromantic.
"Hehe, if Young Master is willing to take off his bamboo hat and let this little girl see Young Master's elegance, perhaps there is no need to tie him up, and this little girl will automatically recommend herself to sleep with him.”The Violet Maiden smiled sweetly at Ying Zheng. She was very curious about Ying Zheng's identity.
Naturally, Ying Zheng did not believe Violet Girl's words, so he merely glanced at her indifferently.
Violet Lady was dressed in a mysterious and alluring purple. Her tight-fitting purple dress outlined her charming figure. There were a few silver hairpins in her high purple hair, making her look like a rose blooming under the sun. Her seductive eyes were also tinged with a faint purple color, like a pair of pearls hidden in the bottom of the sea, dark but dazzling.
There was a butterfly wing-like pattern under the corner of her left eye, adding an unusual noble temperament to her charming posture.
He had to admit that such an enchanting woman would be extremely eye-catching if she stood among the crowd.
"I think this young master is too ugly and doesn't dare to show his true face to others.”Hong Lian could not help but goad him.
"This little sister is wrong. The reason why my young master wears a bamboo hat is because he is too handsome. He is afraid that you will fall in love with him at a glance, so he wears a bamboo hat.”Yan Lingji continued to spout nonsense.
"Young Master, I think this little sister is quite pretty. Why don't you take her in as well?”Yan Lingji looked at Ying Zheng and said.
Hearing this, Ying Zheng was speechless. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have brought this troublemaker out.
"If young master is really as handsome as this lady says, it doesn't matter if we sisters are together.”Violet Girl suddenly smiled sweetly at Ying Zheng, and even winked her charming big eyes mischievously.
"Let me see what you look like.”As she spoke, Violet Girl actually reached out her jade-like hand, intending to lift the gauze covering Ying Zheng's bamboo hat to see his true identity.
Just as Purple Girl's hand touched the veil of Ying Zheng's bamboo hat, Ying Zheng's left hand had already pressed down on the sword on the table.
Suddenly, Violet Maiden's entire body stiffened. Her snow-white hand stopped in mid-air. A gust of wind blew past, and the leaves on the tree fell one after another. The leaves on the ground were also blown away.
The two strands of purple hair on Violet Maiden's forehead were blown into a mess. She felt a chill run through her entire body and could not help but shiver.
Wei Zhuang, who was standing behind the Violet Maiden, held the Sharktooth Sword tightly in his hand, and looked at Ying Zheng who was sitting there with a wary expression. His snow-white hair fluttered in the wind, but he did not move.
Hong Lian's hand had already reached for the Crimson Sword at her waist, but she did not pull it out. Her palm that was holding the sword was sweating, wetting the hilt.
The wind blew, and her hair was slightly messy. A chill spread through her body, and she couldn't help but shiver.
Behind Wei Zhuang, Wushuang Gui, White Phoenix, and the other two were also on guard. Their bodies were trembling slightly. As the breeze blew, they felt cold all over.
Everyone from Quicksand froze for a moment. The entire scene seemed to have frozen. Time seemed to have stopped flowing, and space seemed to have frozen. They were motionless.
Only Yan Lingji was still drinking her tea with a calm expression.
Violet Maiden, Wei Zhuang, and the others were all stunned by the strong killing intent and imposing aura emanating from Ying Zheng's body, and did not dare to make any strange movements for a moment.
It was hard for them to imagine how many people they had to kill to condense such a powerful killing intent. How powerful must they be to emit such a powerful aura?
P.S. I won't split the 3,000-word chapter. I'll let you read it to your heart's content. I've used up my last bit of strength to finish this chapter. I don't even have the strength to ask for votes.
