Chapter XXIV
As the Qin army moved out, the peaceful city fell into chaos.
"Great Qin's laws! Anyone who fakes a travel pass will be beheaded!"
Outside the gate of Mulberry Sea City, the black-armored Qin guard who was guarding the city gate roared with anger. In front of him were several men in tight clothes.
The fake travel pass that they used to clear the dungeon was seen through by the Qin guards.
Viciousness appeared on their faces as they unsheathed their swords!
Obviously, they did not intend to be captured without a fight!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Long halberds appeared like a forest, and the Qin guards at the city gate instantly surrounded this group of anti-Qin forces pretending to be travelers.
Chaotic fighting sounds instantly sounded.
Yueshen stood on the roof of a tall pavilion near the city gate. Her eyes revealed helplessness.
Ever since the King of Qin had ordered the killing of the Mohist disciples, the entire city had been on high alert. The murderous aura had made the people who had lived in Sanghai City for a long time tremble in fear.
Even so, there would be countless forces trying to enter the Sang Sea every day, but most of them would be like the team at the city gate.
Once their whereabouts were exposed, they would be killed by the Qin soldiers guarding the city gates.
Even if they could break out of the encirclement, the 100,000 Qin soldiers stationed outside of Sanghai City had already set up a huge net, which was enough to trap any prey!
Yueshen's eyes were extremely serious. The king of Qin was using Sang Hai as bait to wipe out all the anti-Qin forces that were attracted here!
Or rather, this was an admission ticket. Only people with sufficient strength could finally stand in front of the Ancestral Dragon.
Letting out a sigh, the Moon Goddess turned into a purple light and disappeared. Before the Ancestral Dragon Ying Zheng arrived, the Yin-Yang School still had many things to do!
The hunt at the city gate ended very quickly. The strength of this anti-Qin force was not strong. They were executed on the spot after killing a few Qin kings.
After the battle subsided, the originally chaotic troops gradually gathered in front of the city gate.
In the group, a figure covered in a black robe lowered his head slightly.
" Fu Su…King Qin…" As he muttered, a trace of ruthlessness flashed across the figure's eyes. The sunlight shone on his face, and his identity was shocking!
This person was the eighteenth prince of the Great Qin Empire, Huhai!
He was supposed to be one of the guards in Xianyang when the Ancestral Dragon toured the Sang Sea, but now he had arrived at the Sang Sea quietly.
Huhai raised his head. His eyes were ferocious. He was unscrupulous and would never wait until the last moment to boil a frog in warm water!
Even if he had to fight, he would fight to the death!
He had made a lot of preparations for this trip to Sang Hai. In Xianyang City, he had a substitute who pretended that he was in Xianyang.
The only person who knew his whereabouts was Zhao Gao. Other than him, no one else knew that the eighteenth prince, Huhai, had also come to Sang Hai!
……
The Mo Saber Army's garrison, Qin Zhan's residence.
Dressed in black, Huo Xiu slowly stepped into the courtyard. The assassins of the Qingyi Pavilion who were guarding the surroundings bowed their heads and bowed.
He slowly walked to the door of Qin Zhan's room as if he hadn't sensed anything.
Knock knock.
"Come in." Qin Zhan, who was holding the famous sword Changsheng in his hand and gesturing something, spoke indifferently.
"Your Highness, the eighteenth prince has arrived at Sang Hai!”Huo Xiu walked in and bowed slightly.
If Huhai had heard this, he would have been shocked. He had made all kinds of preparations, and he had even disguised himself in Xianyang City. In his opinion, this operation should be foolproof!
However, he did not expect to be noticed by a killer of the Qingyi Tower when he just left Xianyang. Along the way, the killers of the Qingyi Tower had been following him.
From Xianyang to Sanghai, there were a total of 18 Qingyi Brothels. Thousands of killers had been tracking him down. They had reported every detail to Huo Xiu, including what Huhai ate, what time he traveled, and what he did.
" Is Huhai here…?" Qin Zhan narrowed his eyes. He had been paying attention to Huhai ever since he received Huo Xiu's report.
This eighteenth prince was the exact opposite of the eldest son, Fu Su.
He was personally taught by Zhao Gao.
He was unscrupulous, ruthless, and good at pretending.
Unfortunately, he was just a puppet in Zhao Gao's hands.
After the death of the second emperor of Great Qin, this eighteenth prince Huhai had contributed a lot!
"Where's Zhao Gao?" Qin Zhan sheathed his Eternal Life and looked up at Huo Xiu.
"Your Highness, he left with the Six Sword Slaves two hours ago. He must have gone to pick up Huhai!”Huo Xiu said.
Hearing this, Qin Zhan's lips curled up. He stood up and hung the Longevity Sword at his waist.
"Is that so? Since that's the case, as the elder of the eighteenth prince, perhaps there are some things that I have to warn him on behalf of His Majesty.”
As he spoke, Qin Zhan stepped forward, and Huo Xiu followed suit.
For the past two days, Xu Chu had led the Mo Saber Army to sweep through the Mo family's strongholds. Now, Qin Zhan's travel matters were handed over to Huo Xiu and Qingyi Tower.
Stepping out of the courtyard, Qin Zhan boarded a white jade carriage. Huo Xiu followed behind him on his horse. The assassins of the Qingyi Brothel appeared from the shadows and surrounded the carriage.
The white jade carriage slowly moved forward…
In Mulberry Sea City, Huhai lowered his head and walked quickly. The meeting place he had arranged with Zhao Gao was not far away.
At this moment, a white jade carriage came from the front of the street.
The assassins of the Qingyi Brothel were emitting bone-chilling killing intent, causing the surrounding passersby to involuntarily make way for them.
Huhai's eyes suddenly shrank. He naturally knew who the owner of Qingyi Pavilion was from the letters he had sent to Zhao Gao these days!
It was his mysterious uncle!
The King of Qin of Great Qin!
In an instant, Huhai's back was drenched. He took a step back and wanted to blend into the crowd and leave.
"Your highness, the eighteenth prince, His Highness is looking for you.”A cold voice entered Huhai's ears. He suddenly raised his head and saw an old man in black, whose life force was on the verge of collapsing, standing in front of him.
However, he did not dare to move a single step!
He knew the person in front of him!
The Tower Lord of the Qingyi Tower, Huo Xiu!
He had been discovered!
Huhai's eyes were filled with panic and fear. He had been discovered leaving Xianyang without permission, and once Ying Zheng found out about it, he would definitely not have a good ending!
The white jade carriage slowly stopped behind Huhai, and a clear voice sounded.
"Little Eighteen, come up."
Huhai smiled bitterly when he heard Qin Zhan's voice. His plan had come to an end before it had even begun.
This uncle of his was indeed worthy of being a great man who had been silent in the mountains for ten years and shocked the world with a single sound.
Huhai took a deep breath, turned around, and boarded the white jade carriage.
"Huhai greets uncle."
Qin Zhan looked at the respect on Huhai's face and smiled faintly. Huhai was quite cute when he was young. At that time, he called Huhai Little Eighteen.
"Come, sit here. Uncle will bring you to a place.”Qin Zhan patted the cushion at the side and spoke indifferently.
Huhai sat on the cushion obediently. His eyes were filled with nervousness. He didn't know where his uncle was taking him!
After driving for a long time, the white jade carriage slowly stopped in front of an inn.
Qin Zhan lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the inn that was covered in a layer of dust because no one had taken care of it for a few days after the seal was put on.
"Young Master, do you know where this is?”
Hearing Qin Zhan's words, Huhai subconsciously looked out of the curtain, and then his eyes narrowed.
There was an inn…
This was the former stronghold of the Mo Family. It was no longer a secret to the various forces.
After all, Qin Zhan had once captured the few remaining commanders of the Mo clan here with great fanfare.
"This is the stronghold left behind by the Mohist rebels in the Sang Hai.”As he spoke, Qin Zhan slowly stepped down from the white jade carriage.
"You know, Little Eighteen, Uncle hates people who betray Great Qin and go against Great Qin the most.”
"These people don't know how great Great Qin is and only know how to call it Violent Qin. As such, the first thing uncle did after coming to the Sang Ocean was to destroy this stronghold.”
At this point, Qin Zhan turned around and looked at the nervous Huhai. His eyes revealed a faint light as he spoke.
"However, there are times when some enemies are not outside of Great Qin, but within it!”
"These people, uncle sometimes finds it hard to get rid of them. Little Eighteen, what do you think uncle should do with these people?”
Hearing this, Huhai's tense face finally couldn't hold it in anymore!
Was this…talking about him?
Qin Zhan's expression was indifferent as he pushed open the inn's door and walked in.
Huhai stood in front of the door for a long time. Finally, he gritted his teeth and followed them in.
