Black and White Xuan Jian's thoughts were in a mess. This Heaven Grade first-class assassin from the Network had a desolate expression. He staggered and knelt on one knee on the ground. He lowered his head and said,
"…I don't know how Xuan Jian offended Ruler.”
"If Xuan Jian offended you, I am willing to die to atone for my sins. I only hope that Ruler will spare my son. My son is still young, I beg Ruler to give him a way out.”
Ying Wei lowered his head and looked at the sleeping baby in his arms. He smiled and said,"…What do I want your life for? What use is a dead person to me?”
When the Black White Profound Jian heard this, he suddenly raised his head. His expression was filled with surprise.
Ying Wei's words were undoubtedly telling him that he was still useful. To Xuan Jian, it was good that he was still useful. As long as he was still useful, the child would have a way out!
Xuan Jian quietly knelt on the ground, waiting for Ying Wei's next words.
Ying Wei looked at the mountains that were covered in snow in the distance. Although he was not old, he had an imposing bearing. He said to the Black and White Xuan Jian,
"…Once you enter the net, you will never be able to escape unless you die.”
"Xuan Jian, let me ask you. Do you think that you can hide from the net after you have feelings and have a child?”
Xuan Jian said without any hesitation."…I can't."
If only he and Qianqian knew about this, it would be fine. But Sikong One and his family knew about it, so it was impossible to hide from the net.
"Let me ask you again. If the net knows that you have a child and that you have deep feelings for him, how will the net treat this child?”
Ying Wei asked again.
Xuan Jian hesitated for a long while before he answered desolately,""The Network will train him into an assassin and use him to threaten me to make me more loyal.”
This was originally the means of the Network and after being in the Network for so many years, Xuan Jian understood the methods of the Network too well.
"Then I'll give you a chance, a chance to change his fate. Do you want to seize it?”
Ying Wei withdrew his gaze from the mountains and looked at the Black and White Profound Swordsman kneeling on the ground.
The Black and White Profound Jian's heart moved. A surge of joy suddenly surged out from his heart. Although he was a network killer, how could he watch his own child become a network killer?
Especially since he had joined the Network halfway through and still had his own ego. But if a child was trained to be an assassin from a young age, he would simply be an emotionless killing machine.
As a father, how could he let his child walk down this path.
But Xuan Jian knew that he couldn't escape from the net. Previously, he was gloomy about the child's future.
But now that he heard Ying Wei's words, he suddenly felt that there might be a turning point.
"Ruler, please teach me!"
This time, Xuan Jian prostrated himself on the ground and respected him with great courtesy.
"This time, I'm preparing to go to the small Sage Manor in the land of Qi Lu to study, and I happen to be lacking a page boy.”
"Although this child is young, I can still train him into a qualified errand boy.”
"In the Little Sage Manor, as my attendant, you will have the opportunity to study. If you can learn and work hard, there is a possibility of you becoming a marquis or general in the future.”
"Tell me, do you think there is a future as a scholar or as a network killer?”
Ying Wei looked at the Black and White Profound Jian kneeling on the ground and asked in a deep voice.
Xuan Jian didn't even think and replied,"... naturally I have a better future with the Ruler, it's just that..."
Xuan Jian's words were somewhat hesitant.
"If you have anything to say, just say it."
"However, if the net finds out that the child is missing, they will definitely send people to look for him.”
Xuan Jian slowly expressed his worries.
" You don't have to worry about that. In this era of war, it's easy to find a child who died prematurely. When I took your child away from Sikong One's mansion, I replaced it with a child who died prematurely.”
"Before I left, I set a fire in Sikong Manor. The net could only find a charred corpse in the end.”
"Even if the net still suspects that it's a fake child, they definitely won't think that the child is in my hands.”
"No matter how you look at it, the assassins of the Network can't possibly be related to me, the young master of the State of Qin.”
"Moreover, the Network has just developed in Wei Country. Do you think the Network has the ability to find problems?”
Ying Wei asked the Black and White Profound Jian.
Xuan Jian thought about it carefully and replied,""…No. Although I don't know the exact situation, I know that the network has just established an intelligence system in Wei.”
Xuan Jian's words caused Ying Wei to nod his head secretly. It also confirmed his thoughts.
When he first came to this world and knew that this was not the orthodox Qin Dynasty, Ying Wei was also afraid and vigilant of the net. He believed that the net was everywhere.
However, as his understanding of this world grew deeper, Ying Wei realized that he had been prejudiced by the first impression and had a barrier of knowledge.
Although the Network had a reputation in the past, it was not very well-known. It was only in the recent decade that it had spread to the various countries, and this was mainly due to Lu Buwei's credit.
After analyzing the situation, Ying Wei found the core of the problem.
Heavenly Slaughter and Earthly Extinction, Demons and Monsters. The 'Heavenly Slaughter and Earthly Extinction' in front was an assassin who did things, while the 'Demons and Monsters' behind were intelligence spies.
Which was more terrifying? In Ying Wei's eyes, demons and monsters were more terrifying.
Assassins were only individuals after all. They could not cause any big waves in the general trend.
However, that all-pervasive intelligence system was truly terrifying.
Then again, what was needed to establish such an intelligence system? It must be people and money!
Just by looking at the number of people in the intelligence organizations of the modern world and the annual expenditure, one would know that this thing could only be done with the support of national-level forces.
The net was indeed not built by the Qin country, and even Ying Wei had a guess as to who built it.
However, there was one thing that Ying could not be sure of. Before joining Lu Buwei, the Network was not very strong.
In the past, the Network could rely on themselves to nurture death warriors and top-notch assassins. After all, they did not need many people.
But if that massive intelligence organization didn't have the support of the Qin Country, the strongest country in the seven countries, how could it be established?
Without the support of the Qin country, this kind of organization would have long been destroyed by the various countries.
No matter how much Lu Buwei seized power, there was one thing that he could not say. Lu Buwei longed for the Qin State to become strong and hoped that the Qin State could destroy the six states. This Xiang Bang was also working hard for this.
After the Network had joined Lu Buwei's side, Lu Buwei must have seen the important role the Network could play in unifying the six states.
The assassins of the Heavenly Slaughter and Earthly Extinction were not important. Assassination was ultimately a small path. It could not be seen on the stage and could not determine the general trend.
However, the intelligence network of the Network was exactly what Lu Buwei needed.
And with the support of this Prime Minister of the State of Qin, the Network would have sufficient funds. They could mobilize prisoners for training in the State of Qin's prisons, and they could also use the State of Qin's name to recruit talents.
Thus, the network expanded rapidly, becoming an organization that combined assassination and intelligence.
Killers could be trained in an inhumane way, but spies and intelligence personnel could not do so. They had to have their own subjective initiative.
When the network truly reached its peak, it would definitely be when the State of Qin unified the six countries. At that time, the network personnel scattered throughout the State of Qin after unification were basically a Federal Bureau of Investigation.
In Ying Wei's memory, the inescapable net that could penetrate through any hole, that terrifying and huge organization, only appeared after the world was unified.
The current net was rapidly expanding, and spies were being planted in the Six Nations. As a result, the net was not as terrifying as it seemed.
At the very least, outside of the Qin country, the net could not be everywhere.
" Heh, I can tell from the experience of the Black and White Profound Swordsman that before joining Lu Buwei, the Network didn't have any Yue Ba swords. Even if they did, there would only be a few.'
" I guess those famous swords were only acquired after they joined Lu Buwei.'
Ying Wei thought to himself, but at the same time, his heart was filled with fear. From this, one could see how terrifying Lu Buwei was.
The only good news was that Lu Buwei was getting on in years. He was getting old, and when people got old, they would make mistakes and make stupid moves. This was an opportunity.
As long as one was human, one would make mistakes!
