Screams spread in the dark night.
Li Xian and the Startling Salamander had outstanding sword skills, and now with Ge Nia, the three experts attacked together. These net assassins fell in pools of blood.
Sword light flashed, and the Zhao Country assassins all suffered.
In about ten minutes, the assassins from the Network and the assassins from the State of Zhao were all lying in a pool of blood.
In this battle, the Network suffered heavy losses. A total of more than ten killers who came died tragically.
Blood was dripping from the Salamander Sword.
She sheathed the sword in her hand and said," This time, the Network is really going to lose a lot of money. They lost more than ten kill-level fighters in one battle."”
Li Xian smiled. Even if the network was big, it could not withstand such losses.
In this short month, they had sent wave after wave of killers, but none of them had returned.
Just the power of the Network in the State of Zhao alone had been almost completely wiped out by Li Xian.
"Only the Network likes surprises like this."”
Li Xian looked at the official road leading to Xianyang. The scene of him standing on the tower of Xianyang and killing in all directions had already appeared in his mind.
This time, he was going to take over the headquarters of the Network.
The next day.
In Xianyang City.
A man dressed in a eunuch's uniform hurried toward a magnificent mansion.
The mansion was surrounded by rows of guards in black armor. Each of them had a long sword at their waist and a black spear in their hands. They were tall and sturdy, and their eyes were like falcons, staring straight at the front of the mansion.
There was a very eye-catching plaque hanging in front of the main entrance of the mansion.
Prime Minister Lu's estate!
This was Lu Buwei's residence.
When the man arrived at the entrance of the Prime Minister's estate, the guards came over to stop him.
"Who are you?"
At this moment, the man sneered and raised the token in his hand, revealing his face under his robe.
A cold aura assaulted his face.
This man was full of evil charm, and his face gave people a cold feeling that came from hell.
When they saw Zhao Gao's true appearance, they were shocked and their faces were filled with fear.
"Lord…Lord Zhao!"
The guards 'voices trembled.
After Zhao Gao's face was revealed, the guards did not even need to look at the token. They immediately retreated to the sides and made way for him.
"Sir, please!"
Zhao Gao walked into the Prime Minister's Mansion with his hands behind his back.
A soldier behind him whispered,""A eunuch actually puts on such a big official tone. He really takes himself seriously.”
The guards around were all shocked.
"You brat, you must be new. You actually dare to talk about Lord Zhao behind his back.”
The guard was arrogant and had a sour expression on his face.
"I don't believe that he can still hear us from so far away.”
Zhao Gao, who was three to four meters into the Prime Minister's estate, stopped slightly and tilted his head.
At this moment, the guard suddenly died.
The cause of death was unknown.
The guards knelt on the ground, begging Zhao Gao to calm down.
When they looked again, Zhao Gao was already gone.
The guards 'foreheads were covered in cold sweat. They had almost been killed by this ignorant newcomer.
In the Prime Minister's Residence, Lu Buwei was reading various documents in his study, his brows tightly knitted.
"Minister, the people we sent out were once again wiped out," Zhao Gao came in and said.”
Lu Buwei slammed the bamboo slip in his hand on the table, his hair standing on end.
" What's going on?" he shouted angrily." The net's ability can't even deal with a small country swordsman."”
Zhao Gao said," This man's swordsmanship is extraordinary. He's not an ordinary country swordsman. Even General Li Mu of the State of Zhao and General Dian Qing of the State of Wei died in his hands."”
Lu Buwei's eyes were sharp as he looked down at Zhao Gao.
He pondered in his heart. There was no doubt about the power of the net. Over the years, it had become a huge net for him to rule the Qin country and secretly monitor the other six countries. The martial arts of all the assassins were outstanding. How could they be defeated by an unknown swordsman like Li Xian?
"Net, what should we do next?" Lu Buwei asked.”
"Give up the pursuit," Zhao Gao said bluntly.”
"Li Xian is wielding the Black and White Profound Jian. These days, he has killed nearly 50 of our network's killers. Now that the Startling Salamander has defected to Li Xian, it will be even more difficult to kill them.”
"The most important thing is that the network has suffered heavy losses. I'm afraid that it will affect the great cause of the prime minister.”
"So, I want to give up on the pursuit!"
Lu Buwei was surprised.
How could it not be surprising that the leader of the Network would say such a thing?
If he had known earlier, there would be no turning back once the assassination mission was issued by the Network.
"Zhao Gao, what is the iron law of the net?" Lu Buwei asked.”
"The mission is more important than anything else, including your life," Zhao Gao said.”
" If that's the case," Lu Buwei said with a smirk," giving up the chase means terminating the mission. Isn't that breaking the iron law of the net?"”
"Prime Minister, do you want me to hunt down a country swordsman or do you want me to help you rule the country forever?" Zhao Gao asked.”
This question struck Lu Buwei's heart.
It had to be said that a person like Zhao Gao, other than being eloquent, could also grasp the thoughts of others and know what they wanted the most.
However, with Lu Buwei's status, he was someone who could control the entire Great Qin Empire. How could his dignity be challenged by others?
" I'll allow the Network to recuperate for the time being," Lu Buwei said." However, we absolutely cannot give up on pursuing Li Xian.”
As he spoke, Lu Buwei looked out of the window with a vicious look in his eyes.
"How can I, Lu Buwei, tolerate the provocation of a country swordsman?”
"If you dare to provoke me, you will die!”
