When Li Si walked out of Xianyang Palace, his footsteps felt weak. He took a deep breath to calm himself down before speeding up his steps. There were still many things to do!
In Li Si's position, he had already reached the peak. After enjoying the taste of power, every time he thought about losing it, Li Si would be terrified. It was precisely because power and status had brought him so many things that he became even more cautious.
Ever since he had gotten the portraits of the two children from his subordinates, even though he had changed a lot, Li Si still recognized him at a glance and kept it a secret. He hoped that it would be useful, but he did not expect it to be useful today!
At his position, he could not make the slightest mistake. Moreover, he could vaguely feel that there seemed to be a storm brewing in Xianyang City. At this moment, he could not afford to make the slightest mistake.
Xianyang Palace was so big that Li Si had to walk for a long time before he reached his carriage. With the respectful voice of the servants, Li Si got on the carriage!
The carriage slowly moved. After pondering for a while, Li Si said in a deep voice,""Get ready. I'm going on a long trip!”
A low voice echoed from outside the carriage.
········
When Chi Lian arrived at Wei Zhuang with the latest information, he was in the middle of meditating and cultivating! She did not have the slightest intention of disturbing him because she wanted to see him more.
However, it was as if the heavens did not want this woman who had betrayed her country and her father to have her way. Wei Zhuang's figure did not move. His lips opened and closed slightly.
"What news does my senior brother have?”
"Ge Nia is injured!" Chi Lian was a little disappointed, and the charm in her eyes dimmed a little. She could only slow down her tone, hoping to buy some time.
"Oh, injured? What happened?" Wei Zhuang sounded very interested.
" Yes, at Shimen Gorge, Waning Moon Valley, there were 300 Qin soldiers…Ever since Ge Nia was seriously injured, although there were no longer any Qin soldiers to harass him, based on his condition, if he doesn't get some rest soon…"
Upon hearing this news, Wei Zhuang's eyes seemed to have the tendency to open. However, after a few tremors, Wei Zhuang did not open his eyes in the end. However, the excitement in his voice was no longer there, and he hummed in a low voice!
As someone who had been secretly in love with Wei Zhuang for many years, Chi Lian was naturally very clear about the origins of his martial arts. She had gritted her teeth more than once in private regarding the rules of the Ghost Valley Sect, and she was also full of hostility towards Ge Nia, who was famous even though she had never wiped her name clean. She was very happy that Ge Nia was injured, and she felt that this was an opportunity. She was so excited that she did not notice the little change in Wei Zhuang!
" Zhuang, Ge Nia is so badly injured, do you want to…" She was so excited that she even changed the way she addressed him!
Wei Zhuang's expression sank and he said seriously,""This is between the two of us. You don't have to interfere!”
"Alright then! Then I'll take my leave!" Chi Lian's expression was a little disappointed, but she put it away in the blink of an eye. A trace of inexplicable killing intent flashed in her eyes as she turned around and was about to leave.
However, she had only taken a few steps when she was stopped!
"Wait a minute!" Chi Lian, who had been stopped, looked surprised." Zhuang, what's the matter, Lord Wei Zhuang?"”Chi Lian, who realized how she addressed him, immediately changed her words.
Wei Zhuang's voice was a little stern." I've said it before. This is between the two of us. This is the rule of our sect. So, Chi Lian, you can't interfere. I don't want Quicksand's people to look for him in private. Do you understand?”
Chi Lian, whose thoughts had been exposed, was a little disappointed. However, when she saw Wei Zhuang's expression, she knew that Wei Zhuang was a little angry, so she quickly put down the thoughts that had just risen in her heart and whispered," I understand, Lord Wei Zhuang!”After saying that, he turned around and walked out!
Wei Zhuang, who was sitting cross-legged, had a complicated expression on his face when Chi Lian walked back. However, he soon recovered his usual indifference and thought sarcastically in his heart,
"Brother! So many years have passed, but you still haven't changed. In order to train the two little brats, you actually made yourself so miserable. As expected of a Sword Saint! But I believe we will meet again soon. I hope you are still alive before we meet.”
At the same time, a luxuriously decorated carriage, pulled by several tall horses, rushed towards the forest!
A few days later, after Chi Lian dismissed the intelligence agents from Quicksand with a serious expression, she turned around and quickly walked towards the wooden house where Wei Zhuang was. When she reached the wooden house, she deliberately slowed down her pace and walked into the wooden house with a smile on her face!
As usual, Wei Zhuang closed his eyes and cultivated his true qi. His expression was calm, but it made his evil temperament even more obvious!
Chi Lian glanced at Wei Zhuang, but she didn't forget about the important matter!
"Lord Wei Zhuang, there is something that you might be very interested in!”
"Oh, what is it?"
"A few days ago, a horse carriage set out from Xianyang and rushed towards us without stopping. It won't take long for him to reach us! I'm sure you'll be very interested in the person in this carriage!”
"Who is it?"
A hint of sadness and killing intent flashed in Chi Lian's eyes. The smile on her face also faded a little. She gritted her teeth and said,
"The current prime minister of the Qin country, Li Si!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Zhuang's eyes suddenly opened. A cold light seemed to shoot out from his eyes, and the temperature in the room suddenly dropped a little. It was so cold that it could pierce one's heart! The cold light in Wei Zhuang's eyes gradually faded away! He said coldly,"
"It's actually him!"
"Lord Wei Zhuang, do you want it?" Chi Lian made a throat-cutting gesture, and her meaning was self-evident!
Wei Zhuang's face was cold. After thinking for a long time, he said,
"Don't be in a hurry! Our guests have come from afar. We can't neglect them. Let's go. I want to see how powerful Li Si's mouth is!”
"Yes, sir!"
Chi Lian's expression changed when she heard this, but she still replied respectfully in the end.
Then, the two of them slowly walked out of the house!
When a carriage stopped outside the forest under the protection of a group of fully armed soldiers, Li Si also got off the carriage with the help of servants. The bumpy carriage for many days made the Prime Minister's face pale. After breathing in a few breaths of fresh air, his face gradually became rosy.
Li Si frowned as he looked at the forest in front of him. He whispered to a general who was protecting him,""Is this the place?"
The general cupped his hands and bowed." Yes, sir. This is a den of Quicksand. According to our empire's intelligence, the leader of Quicksand is here!"”
"Yes!" " Yes!" Li Si responded and turned to walk into the forest!
"Sir, you're being too arrogant!" Li Si stopped in his tracks when the general stopped him!
"What is it?" Li Si frowned.
"Sir, this forest is known as the 'Snake Forest' and is extremely dangerous. Sir, you can't easily take the risk, so I suggest that you set fire to the forest to drive away the snakes. Or let the servants go in on behalf of Daren to pass on the message. Daren doesn't have to take the risk!”
"I came with the sincerity of the empire. There's no need to do this. You'll only anger the other party and ruin my plans!”Li Si refuted with a frown and was about to move again!
The general did not stop him and quickly said,"Sir, Quicksand is a group of vicious thugs who kill without batting an eye. Sir, please allow the army to protect you.”
"I've made up my mind. Move aside!" Li Si sounded stern.
Plop. As the general knelt on the ground, the Qin army that had accompanied him also knelt down." Sir, as the Prime Minister of the Empire, you have a heavy responsibility. If anything happens to you here, how can we live under the Emperor's wrath?!" Sir, please do it for the empire! Think twice!"
As soon as the general finished speaking, the other soldiers also shouted,"Sir, please reconsider!"
Li Si looked at the scene before him with an ugly expression. He pondered for a moment before saying,""Alright then! I'll bring four elite soldiers with me into the forest!”Seeing that the general was about to speak, Li Si said in a deep voice,""This is an order! Do you want to disobey orders? Do you want to die?”
"As ordered!" The general's voice sounded bitter and helpless, but he had no choice but to accept the order.
When Li Si led the four soldiers into the forest, they did not walk far. In the dense grass, branches, and leaves around them, countless rustling sounds could be heard!
The four soldiers on guard were a little panicked, but they did not say anything when they saw Li Si's calm expression!
At this moment, countless colorful snakes of different lengths surrounded Li Si and his group from all directions!
The breathing of the four soldiers was a little hurried. The dense number of snakes made them all swallow their saliva. They said in panic,"My lord!"
Li Si ignored his subordinate's voice. His hands were naturally hanging down, and his eyes were bright as he spoke loudly! "We are here to pay our respects to the master of this place. This kind of reception is really detrimental to the etiquette of the Han Kingdom's royal family!”
Just as Li Si finished speaking, a burst of laughter came from behind them! The snakes seemed to have received an order as they scattered in all directions. Li Si and the others quickly turned around.
The first thing that came into view was her slender legs. The red, orange, and yellow skirt accentuated her slender figure. Looking up, a red snake was wandering around the slender black-gray waist of the person. Not only did it not make one feel cold, but it also gave her a wild feeling.
His gaze moved up. The mountain peak, the neck, the off-shoulder cheongsam, and the crimson and golden color on the shoulder.
The sound of swallowing saliva could be heard.
Moving up, what kind of eyes were those? Under her long and thick eyelashes, she had amber pupils, upturned eyes, light yellow eyeshadow, and big misty eyes. It seemed to have a demonic impulse!
He threw himself into it!
He threw himself into it!
He threw himself into it!
Suddenly, Li Si felt a sense of wariness as he sensed that something was wrong. Realizing this, Li Si's mind gradually cleared up and his eyes became clearer! Looking at the woman in front of him, he praised her in his heart.
"Princess Red Lotus…Was that Fire Enchantment? What profound power…"
As he thought about it, Li Si saw his four subordinates acting like pigs from the corner of his eyes. He snorted loudly, waking the four soldiers who were almost drooling! When the four soldiers realized something, they could not help but lower their heads in shame!
Chi Lian looked deeply at Li Si and said gently,""The forest here will eat people. Everyone, follow me closely. Don't get lost!”
After saying that, he ignored them and swayed his body to lead the way. When Li Si and the others walked to an open space in the forest under Chi Lian's lead, they finally saw the evil Wei Zhuang, who was wearing a coat and had his head buried in white hair. He was leaning on a stone chair with his right index finger supporting his head!
Li Si's heart skipped a beat when he saw Wei Zhuang. He cupped his hands and said,""I am Li Si from the State of Qin."
Wei Zhuang didn't even look at Li Si and said calmly,""I know that you are the famous Prime Minister of Qin, Li Si. Otherwise, you wouldn't have lived to see me.”
One of the four soldiers, who had been frustrated by what had just happened, saw Wei Zhuang's indifferent expression and felt relieved. He felt that his chance to show off had come, so he shouted loudly,
"How dare you speak to the Prime Minister in such a tone! Show some respect!"
Wei Zhuang's right hand moved, and a sword light flashed in the forest. Then, a sword qi rushed straight towards the soldier who had spoken rudely, and then he sheathed his sword!
Just as the others reacted, the soldier who was eager to show off fell to the ground. Then, an indifferent voice sounded," The good habits of ancient times have been forgotten. Some people are unwilling to remember what they said once.”
At the same time, a sword mark slowly appeared on the face of the soldier who had fallen to the ground! Chi Lian laughed softly…
Clang! Clang! The sound of swords being unsheathed rang out. Just as the other three soldiers were about to make a move, Li Si waved his hand! "The Han Nation has always been a nation that pays attention to etiquette. The rules here are indeed very big."”
With a wave of his hand, the three terrified soldiers put away their weapons. Wei Zhuang glanced at them and said in a deep voice,"The Han Country that emphasized etiquette no longer exists. It was destroyed by the Qin Country three years ago.”
The atmosphere on the ground was a little heavy. Li Si did not answer the question and changed the topic."Mister was once the most outstanding warrior before the Han Emperor. With such talent, it would be a pity if he only slept in this forest.”
"Oh? " Really?" Wei Zhuang seemed a little nonchalant towards Li Si's compliment!
"His Majesty is an unprecedented emperor.”
"You mean the King of Qin, Ying Zheng?"
Li Si frowned slightly at Wei Zhuang's indifference! "Now, there is only one King in the world, and that is Great Qin's King. His road to hegemony has just begun, and he really needs an outstanding talent like you to work together..."
Before Li Si could finish, he was interrupted by the impatient Wei Zhuang! "You came all the way here just for this cliché about becoming a marquis? Lord Li, I'm a little disappointed…You're just like everyone else in the world, this isn't a big mistake, you can go."
" Mr. Wei…" Li Si was stunned!
"There are some things I don't want to say a second time!”Wei Zhuang's voice was a little stern.
"Everyone!" Chi Lian said charmingly. Please take your companions with you.”
Li Si looked at the soldier on the ground and squatted down. He looked at the sword wound on the soldier's face and said,""What a terrifying sword technique! Unfortunately…" First, it was a compliment, but then it changed its tone." Compared to Ge Nia's swordsmanship, it's only second!”
Wei Zhuang pointed at the stone chair and said nothing. Chi Lian, who was beside him, snorted coldly. As if it had heard a signal, the Peerless Viper crawled out from its hidden corner under the terrified gazes of the soldiers!
"Provoking me? It's an old-fashioned trick." Wei Zhuang mocked in his heart, The simplest is also the most useful!”
"During this period of time, the Mo Family has been very active, preparing plans that are unfavorable to Ying Zheng! This must be the reason why Lord Li is looking for me!”Wei Zhuang said lightly.
"The fact that Mister Wei killed the leader of the Mo Family with a single slash to his throat was widely spread! The disciples of the Mo family are still terrified of you!”Wei Zhuang was very calm when Li Si cupped his hands and complimented him!
"All these years, they've been looking for me everywhere. They want to kill me to avenge their leader."
"Ge Nia's whereabouts this time have a lot to do with the Mo Family!”Li Si was delighted and continued to spout nonsense as if he was serious.
"Who is the child that Ge Nia is protecting?”Suddenly, Wei Zhuang's words changed!
Li Si's heart tightened, but then he casually said,""I wonder which child Mr. Wei is talking about. There are two of them?”
Wei Zhuang snorted coldly." You already know? Which kid can fly? Although his martial arts can barely be considered third-rate, he's not someone your soldiers can deal with. Do you think I need protection?”
Li Si's heart skipped a beat when he heard Wei Zhuang's words." As expected, they're also paying attention to Ge Nia's news!”With that thought, Li Si said," The other child is a life that shouldn't be left in this world! I get that child, and you get Ge Nia!”
Wei Zhuang did not seem to mind Li Si's vague answer.""This is a deal. Other than that, we have no other relationship."
" Happy cooperation. Let's go!" Li Si turned around and walked out.
"Yes, sir!"
The other three guards quickly responded and walked out quickly, afraid that they would fall behind! When Li Si walked away, a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"Is it time to set off?" Looking at their departing figures, Chi Lian gritted her teeth and turned to Wei Zhuang!
"It's time for the quicksand to move. The current situation is very interesting! How can we be absent at a time like this!”Wei Zhuang said indifferently. "It's just an act, but you still have to do the whole thing!”
"Wushuang, Cang Lang, Bai Feng, where are they now!”Wei Zhuang stood up and walked out!
"I'll go inform them to gather! Wu Shuang was cultivating in the deep mountains about three hundred miles away from Shangdang!”
"Since he's the closest to Ge Nia's group, then let Wushuang investigate first!”
