Black Dragon Palace.
The silence was terrifying!
The First Emperor, Ying Zheng, leaned against his throne, his right hand resting on his cheek, his left finger tapping on the table, deep in thought.
The eighteen princes gathered together.
He lowered his head and remained silent.
He drank his tea.
Even if she had the urge to pee, she didn't dare to mention it. Her face turned red.
They were quietly waiting for the news of the secret guards who had gone to find the Sword God.
They knew that their father valued this matter greatly.
At this critical moment, they did not dare to disturb their father's mood.
Qin Lan, on the other hand, was sitting beside the First Emperor, Ying Zheng. He picked up a brush and started drawing on the paper.
Logically speaking, there was no paper in the Qin Dynasty.
It was usually silk.
The reason why there was paper was because Qin Lan had taught him.
Shua shua shua…
Da da da da…
The sound of the brush rubbing against the paper was mixed with the sound of fingers tapping.
In this silent hall, it was like a pleasant melody that made one feel relaxed and happy.
Yin Shi.
Ta…
Ta…
Right at this moment, the sound of messy footsteps came from outside the hall, as well as a series of low roars.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I searched the entire Xianyang but couldn't find the Sword God.”
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I searched the entire Xianyang but did not find the Sword God.”
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I searched the entire Xianyang City but couldn't find the Sword God."
……………………………………
His voice was like a wave of sound, unending.
As far as the eye could see, the Shadow Secret Guards were kneeling on one knee outside the hall, quietly waiting for Emperor Shi Huang to punish them.
Inside and outside Xianyang City, they searched every house that had the smell of fireworks.
Swordsmen had to check their swords!
Was it compatible with the Nether Sword?
Apart from that, not only did they mobilize the Shadow Secret Guards, but they also mobilized a portion of the Imperial Guards to join in the search.
But in the end, there was no news.
The wielder of the Nether Sword-Sword God?
This was too important to the First Emperor.
Apart from his status as the top of the Famous Sword Ranking, he also had two divine pills, the Nine-Revolutions Longevity Pill.
Consuming this pill can increase one's lifespan by sixty years.
This was the pill that the First Emperor urgently needed.
Qin Shi Huang is still alive, and the Great Qin Dynasty will last forever.
Swish…
Upon hearing this, Zhang Han stood up abruptly with a solemn expression. He strode to the center of the hall and knelt down in front of Ying Zheng.
"I am the commander of the Shadow Secret Guards. The Shadow Secret Guards did not do their job well, so please punish me, Your Majesty.”
His voice was low and his expression was nervous.
He couldn't believe it.
How was this possible?
The golden light given by the Famous Sword Ranking was projected onto Xianyang City.
It was also at that time that the Shadow Secret Guards immediately set out to search.
Logically speaking, as long as he was in Xianyang City, he would definitely find it.
Xianyang City?
This was Great Qin's strongest fortress.
Scouts and spies were needed everywhere.
How could he not find it?
Unless the Sword God was not in Xianyang!
At this moment, Emperor Ying Zheng opened his eyes and stared at Zhang Han for a long time.
Only then did he slowly speak.
"General Zhang Han, it's not your fault. The Sword God who can rank first on the Famous Sword Ranking is not an ordinary person.”
"It's not surprising that you can avoid the Shadow Secret Guards 'search.”
"However, the search for the Sword God must not be put aside. This matter must be like a sword hanging above your head. You must search for it at all times.”
The sound was like a great bell, spreading throughout the palace.
When General Zhang Han heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked him." Thank you, Your Majesty. I will remember your words."”
"You may leave." Emperor Ying Zheng waved his hand.
"Yes."
Zhang Han bowed and left.
After he left, all the princes present stood up and tried to persuade and comfort him.
They were very clear.
This was the best time to please his father.
"Imperial Father, please don't be anxious. With Great Qin's intelligence, we will definitely be able to find the Sword God.”
"That's right. Moreover, the Famous Sword Rankings will be updated every month. Perhaps, Father will be able to obtain a Divine Grade pill the next time the rankings are updated.”
"Imperial Father, not only that, the Golden Board shows that other than the Famous Sword Board, there are other boards of varying sizes. In the future, if there is an Emperor Board, then Imperial Father will definitely be able to take the top spot and obtain the Divine Grade pills.”
…………………………………………
Your words!
My mouth!
Only Qin Lan and Ge Nie remained silent.
Qin Lan lowered her head and focused on her drawing.
The Sword Saint sipped his tea.
Especially when the Sword Saint saw Qin Lan's actions, his eyes revealed admiration.
He knew that His Majesty's expectations for divine grade medicinal pills were rather high.
But now, he knew that there was no trace of the Sword God.
This also meant that the whereabouts of the divine rank medicinal pills were also unknown.
As the saying went, the higher the expectations, the higher the disappointment.
His Majesty Qin Shi Huang's heart was definitely not calm!
At this juncture, if he continued to nag, wouldn't he be looking for trouble?
On this occasion.
Not saying anything was the wisest choice.
At this moment, the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, stood up with a dark face and said angrily," You don't have to say anything more. I have my own decision.”
"Currently, there is less than an hour before the court session. You all should withdraw from the main hall and wait outside for the civil and military officials to attend.”
"At this time, I have an important announcement.”
His voice was like a dragon's roar, and his imperial might was vast.
As soon as he said this, all the princes present immediately shut their mouths and hurriedly replied," Yes, we will follow your words."”
"Yes, I will obey father's words."
………………………………
Next, Emperor Ying Zheng waved his robe, turned around, and walked towards his bedroom.
However, before he left, he glanced at Qin Lan's painting from the corner of his eye, which surprised him.
The content of the painting was a sword!
This sword was the Nether Sword, the top of the Famous Sword Ranking.
The sword was pitch-black, straight, and covered in diamond-shaped patterns.
It was vivid and realistic.
Each stroke outlined strands of sword qi.
Sword Qi was everywhere!
He was full of heroic spirit.
"If Lan 'er had drawn this sword a few days ago, it would have really shocked me.”The First Emperor, Ying Zheng, exclaimed inwardly.
In his opinion, Qin Lan was able to draw the Nether Sword because she had seen the appearance of the Nether Sword on the Famous Sword Ranking.
However, if he had drawn the Nether Sword before the golden roll appeared…
That would be quite interesting.
This meant that Qin Lan had seen the Netherworld Sword before.
This was only a momentary thought in the mind of the First Emperor, Ying Zheng.
He quickly dismissed it.
Only after he left did the princes dare to stand up and leave.
However, the speed at which he stood up was quite fast.
As the saying went, people had three emergencies.
After drinking so much tea, she couldn't hold it in anymore.
When Qin Lan came down the stairs and was about to walk out of the hall, Ge Nie Shen's deep voice came from behind her.
"Young Master Qin Lan, can we talk in private?”
