"They tried to assassinate me."
Ying Ziqin sneered.
In terms of assassination, who could compete with the Shadow Legion?
"Young Master!“
Xing Ke's voice sounded outside.
The body of the stoic man fell to the ground with a bang.
Xu Xuan hid in the dark.
After practicing the shadow attribute assassin technique, his assassination became even more proficient.
The stoic man was very strong, but he didn't notice him at all.
Xing Ke led a hundred men to break through the men in black and arrived at the room.
However, he saw that they were all Assassin corpses.
The young master was still standing in front of the table, holding a pen in his hand, his expression calm.
He didn't look like someone who had experienced an assassination.
Xing Ke walked into the room and saw the stoic man on the ground. He was shocked.
"Swordsman from Chu Country!"
He had seen this person before.
When General Meng Tian attacked Chu, this person had tried to assassinate him.
Although the assassination failed, he still retreated calmly. He was very strong and could be considered a top-notch assassin. He was not inferior to some grandmaster experts.
Now, he had died here quietly!
This…
Xing Ke was stunned.
From the looks of it, Young Master didn't make a move.
Then, it was…!
Xing Ke also thought of the 'ghost legend' that had caused the raiders in the Mound Mountains to be terrified!
He knew that it was a terrifying existence hidden behind Young Master.
Xing Ke gulped. He felt as if he was facing a mountain of pressure from this young master!
Ying Ziqin put down his pen.
He walked to the dead body of the man with facial paralysis and looked at his neck, but he did not find any sign of the net.
"Clean these up and investigate their origins.”
Anyone who dared to attack the Young Master of the Empire, other than Zhao Gao, would be a remnant of the Six Nations.
In comparison, he was more willing to believe that it was the former.
After all, he did not have any major conflicts with the remnants of the Six Nations.
……
Outside the relay station.
Zhang Han and Illusory Sword Cang Ke fought.
Zhang Han was a grandmaster, and his strength was stable.
Phantom Sword Cang Ke was only trying to stall Zhang Han and give the expressionless man a chance to test Ying Ziqin. With the help of the strange Phantom Sword, he was able to block the attack.
However, Zhang Han saw through his weakness and chased after him, causing him to suffer many injuries. He could only retreat and stand on a grass mound.
"Aren't you anxious?"
A hint of doubt appeared on his face.
Judging from the fight just now, Zhang Han seemed to be less anxious about returning to the room to save the Ninth Young Master.
"You have made a fatal mistake.”
Zhang Han said coldly," They all think that I'm the one protecting the Ninth Young Master. They don't understand that the Ninth Young Master doesn't need protection. Even I can't last ten moves against the Young Master. Who can hurt the Young Master?"”
What the hell!
Couldn't last ten moves?
Hearing Zhang Han's reply, Illusory Sword Cang Ke's heart shook.
Zhang Han was a Grandmaster. As the leader of the Empire's Shadow Secret Guards, he had a great reputation in the martial world.
Since he couldn't last more than ten moves from the Ninth Young Master, he was afraid that he would be defeated.
This was shocking.
If that was the case, then the person they were going to test…!
Boom!
Zhang Han's strength suddenly erupted and he charged forward, doubling his speed. Illusory Sword Cang Ke prepared to retreat.
If he continued fighting, he would definitely suffer.
However, Zhang Han didn't give up. He quickly intercepted and took advantage of the moment when Phantom Sword Cang Ke's confidence was defeated. He quickly broke his Phantom Sword and ruthlessly slashed his neck, causing a spray of blood.
Illusory Sword Cang Ke fell to the ground.
Zhang Han picked up his sword and examined it before returning to his residence.
The soldiers were moving the bodies.
"Young Master!"
Zhang Han handed the Illusory Sword to Ying Ziqin.
Ying Ziqin held it and started to size it up.
The sword was very thick and heavy.
Zhang Han explained," This sword is called the Illusory Sword. It's made up of six thin swords stacked together. It's powered by internal energy and can be controlled at the same time, giving the enemy the illusion that it's a sword aura.”
"Have you found out his background?"
Ying Ziqin asked.
"The other party is from the State of Zhao, a wandering swordsman. He has some reputation in the martial arts world. As for who instructed him, we haven't found out yet.”
Zhang Han was puzzled.
He suspected that it was the net.
However, he could not find any evidence.
This time, Zhao Gao had activated the network of assassins. They were criminals, outlaws, and wandering swordsmen who were about to be caught. Even if they were caught, they wouldn't be able to find out anything.
Ying Ziqin did not investigate deeply.
Sooner or later, they would have a taste of the Shadow Legion!
"We will depart tomorrow and head south."
Ying Ziqin ordered.
"Yes."
Zhang Han nodded and scanned the room. He didn't see anyone, but he felt like there were many pairs of eyes staring at him.
……
Xianyang Palace.
A servant was holding three volumes of memorials and presenting them to Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng read a scroll.
He raised his eyebrows slightly.
He read another scroll.
A trace of surprise appeared on his face.
He finished reading the last volume.
His expression changed slightly.
These were the governors of the three counties. They reported the truth and described the details.
"One thousand cavalry traveled for a month without stopping and wiped out forty to fifty raiders. There were thousands of them, and some of them were the remnants of the six dynasties.”
"If the statement is true, it is indeed somewhat unbelievable.”
Ying Zheng was indeed surprised.
He didn't expect Ying Ziqin to make any achievements by giving him one thousand cavalrymen, as long as he didn't lose face.
As such, he did not mention anything about giving him military power to Li Si or anyone else.
However, these 1,000 soldiers had given him quite a pleasant surprise.
His battle achievements were brilliant, and he had also intimidated the raiders in the counties. This had a profound meaning.
He knew the combat power of the Empire's cavalry.
Although it was very strong, it was far from being as strong as the description. There must be a huge support behind it.
Otherwise, just fighting without rest would have worn out these heavy armored cavalry.
There was only one person behind this huge support, and that person was his son, Ying Ziqin!
"The mysterious ghost of the hill."
The Hanzhong County Governor had described the incident at Qiu Shan in a very mysterious and strange manner.
Was that his confidence?
What was it?
It was only at this moment that Ying Zheng realized that his neglected son was actually quite mysterious.
"There are indeed some results!"
"I want to see how much of the promise you made to me can be fulfilled.!”
Thinking of Ying Ziqin's fantastical words, Ying Zheng suddenly had a hint of anticipation. Although he felt that his idea was ridiculous, he did not kill it!
