Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 318 End of Night
  Jing Ke turned his face back quickly, but his face still fell unconsciously, and he replied weakly:
  "I'm not here to save him, I'm just following the giant's orders."

???

Jing Ke's answer did not solve Gu Xun's doubts at all.

Your family's giant... should still be the Six-fingered Black Man now. I remember he seems to be anti-Qin, too. There's no reason why he would save Ying Zheng?
  Gu Xun is not someone who studies the details of the Qin Dynasty. Especially the plot of the Six-Fingered Black Man was already many years ago when he traveled through time. He has long forgotten it. He only vaguely remembers that this person should also be anti-Qin.

The doubts on Gu Xun's face were not concealed at all. Jing Ke saw it but did not answer it.

He himself never kept any secrets and told others everything he wanted to say, but this order was given by the Six-Fingered Black Man, so he couldn't say more.

So he scratched his head and laughed and said:

"Well, ancient miracle doctor, now that the matter here has been resolved, I have to go back to find the giant as soon as possible."

"Next time you come to Mo's house, I'll treat you to a drink."

"Uh..." Gu Xun didn't have any objections to Jing Ke's familiarity with him. He was not a duplicitous gentleman, he was just a little enthusiastic, so he responded casually, "Okay, no problem."

"Then it's settled, we won't come back until we meet drunk next time."

Seeing that Gu Xun was not as eccentric as rumored, Jing Ke couldn't help but act more familiar. He waved his arm towards him and was about to leave. However, he turned back after taking the step and asked hesitantly with a tangled look on his face. :

"That... was it really a swordsmanship just now?"

"Do I need to lie to you?" Gu Xun spread his hands, "A genuine swordsmanship, Changhong Swordsmanship - Changhong Guanri!"

"That's really... incredible swordsmanship." Jing Ke believed in Gu Xun, his eyes were full of warlike desire, he shook his head slightly and exclaimed, "I want to compete with you if I have a chance."

After saying that, he returned to his playful smile and quickly added:
  "Well... be lenient when the time comes and don't beat me to death."

Gu Xun couldn't help but secretly sigh to Jing Ke who was a little happy - he was worthy of being Tian Ming's father!

"Let's talk about it next time we meet."

"Okay, I look forward to our next meeting. Now I have to leave quickly." After Jing Ke finished speaking, he turned around and ran away quickly.

When Yan Lingji saw that the chat between Gu Xun and the stranger was over, she quickly came up, hugged Gu Xun's neck, pointed at the Changhong Sword and asked:
  "Where did this sword... come from? I've never seen you use it before?"

Yan Lingji didn't ask about the meteor falling from the sky just now, because she had a hunch that Gu Xun would definitely not answer her, so she turned to ask about the Changhong Sword in Gu Xun's hand.

The aura emanating from that sword made her, a fire wizard, feel very close and dangerous.

She had never had such complicated feelings about an object.

Gu Xun pulled Yan Lingji's snow-white arms apart, raised his sword and showed it to her:
  "This is the Changhong Sword. It has always been my sword. It's just that I didn't use it much before and you didn't see it."

"Changhong Sword..." Yan Lingji rolled her eyes and begged, "Shopkeeper, can you give me the sword to play with?"

Gu Xun didn't say anything, and just handed the sword to her casually. Yan Lingji took it with a smile, and then...

"Oh!" Yan Lingji staggered due to the sudden weight on her hand, almost losing her balance. "Why is this sword so heavy?"

Gu Xun ignored her, and just waved his hand, indicating that she should stop asking so many questions, and turned to look at Ying Zheng and others:
  "Are you guys okay?"

Of course, it was impossible to be fine. Feiyan and the others all suffered injuries of varying degrees, among which Quexie's injuries were the most severe, but they could only be considered minor injuries, just simple skin injuries. As for the two weaklings, Ying Zheng and Li Si, they were well protected. They were only covered in smoke and dust caused by Gu Xun's attack just now.

Ying Zheng smiled calmly, looked at Gu Xun and replied:
  "Mr. Gu showed up just in time, and we are fine."

Then he said meaningfully:

"Mr. Gu always brings me different surprises."

As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but look at the huge pit to the side, and strange ripples appeared in his usually calm and calm eyes.

He has never been very fond of the so-called masters of martial arts, because no matter how strong a master is, he cannot stop thousands of troops. The role that martial artists can play is just like a killer in a trap. It cannot be said to be useless, but in the end It cannot really influence the strength of a country.

But it's different when he's as strong as Gu Xun.

The power just now, which was like the fire of punishment and calamity from heaven, was deeply engraved in Ying Zheng's mind - this was really too powerful!
  This kind of attack, even if it is protected by countless troops, may still kill the target in the midst of thousands of troops.

In other words, even if he takes power in the future and is protected by the Qin Forbidden Army, Gu Xun will still have the ability to take away the life of him, the King of Qin...

After Ying Zheng's eyes changed several times, he suddenly invited Gu Xun again:

"Mr. Gu, I want to ask you again, are you willing to join our Great Qin as an official, and are you willing to be treated...as a national advisor?"

This is the first time Ying Zheng has claimed to be a king since he came to South Korea, which represents the solemnity of his invitation.

Feiyan's eyelids swayed when she heard this, and Ehuang's face changed even more as he was having so many things to think about.

The position of national master has been planned by the Yin Yang family for a long time. If nothing unexpected happens, Fei Yan will probably take the position...

However, Gu Xun’s answer was no different from last time:

"Thank you for your kindness, His Majesty the King of Qin. But as I said last time, Gu doesn't have that ability, and I really don't want to be interested in things like court politics, so let's forget it."

Ying Zheng was rejected again. He was neither embarrassed nor ashamed. He just nodded, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zi Nu also came up to Gu Xun at this time, and squeezed Yan Lingji away intentionally or unintentionally, causing the other party to glare at her, but she ignored her completely and asked herself:
  "Gu Xun, what's going on in the city? Are Han Fei... and Zifang okay?"

In fact, she wanted to ask about Changhong Sword Technique more, mainly because she was curious about whether Nongyu's Whirlwind Sword Technique would be so... outrageous in the future?
  However, there were many outsiders present, and it was not appropriate to ask about such private matters that might make others jealous and greedy. She could only suppress the doubts that rarely appeared in her heart.

"Everything is fine. I have cleaned up all the killers in Luowang. Han Fei also ruined the arrangements for the night. It's just that I don't know where the others went."

"That's good."

Although she knew in her heart that nothing would happen, Zi Nu was still a little worried. After hearing Gu Xun's reply, she was completely relieved.

"That's it, tonight's events are completely over." Gu Xun looked high into the sky. The moon that was originally suspended above the zenith had begun to sink.

Tossing here and there, here and there, this night is almost over.

The sun is coming out.
