Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 910 Epilogue (Part )

Gu Xun glanced at the afterimage of Jiutian Xuannv in annoyance, and then drank all the remaining wine in the jug with a sip, and threw the jug down. Anyway, there were ruins down there, and no one would be around.

Then he stood up, patted his clothes, and suddenly asked Yuki-onna, "Yuki-onna, what do you think about immortality?"

Xue Nu turned her head sideways and looked up at Gu Xun who stood up, with a suspicious look on her face, "Are you talking about your First Emperor?"

It is basically no secret that Ying Zheng pursues the dream of immortality. Of course, what plans he has made for this are definitely unknown.

All the anti-Qin forces collectively laughed at Ying Zheng's dream. Xue Nu, who was in the Mo family, naturally knew about it.

"No..." Gu Xun was stunned for a moment, then laughed and shook his head, "I'm just asking you for your views, or attitude, on longevity."

"Do you want to live forever?"

The snow girl frowned slightly and asked, "Why, do you want to follow in the footsteps of your Emperor and pursue immortality?"

"Ah..." Gu Xun gave a helpless smile, "I've already said it, your attitude, your attitude!"

The snow girl retracted her gaze and looked down at the ruins below. After a moment of silence with her eyes distracted, she said, "Changsheng... you asked me so suddenly, and I can't tell you anything."

"Logically speaking, it should be good to be able to live forever. After all, so many people are happy to indulge in it."

"What about you?" Gu Xun continued to ask with a smile, "If possible, do you hope you will live forever?"

The snow girl glanced at Gu Xun strangely, and then replied, "Maybe?"

"I'm not sure. I don't know what the rest of my life will be like if I really become immortal."

"Better... or worse?"

"Tsk..." Gu Xun clicked his tongue, "Indeed, humans are only short-lived species after all, and it is difficult to imagine the life of immortal species out of thin air."

"After all... I still have to make my own decision..."

Gu Xun just whispered the last sentence softly to himself, and Xue Nu didn't hear it clearly.

She asked at this time, "What's wrong with you? Why do you suddenly ask...such a question?"

"Ah! It's nothing." Gu Xun waved his hand with a dull look, and casually said, "I have some feelings occasionally, just chatting."

"Okay, let's stop chatting. It's time to take a rest. I'll leave tomorrow."

"So anxious?" Snow Girl asked in surprise, "You are the hero who saved everyone this time, don't you stay for a few more days?"

"Haha!" Gu Xun grinned, "I'm from the empire. If I don't leave, I won't be able to catch up with Wei Zhuang and their sand ships."

"As for rescuing people...if I had known earlier, I would rather just sit back and watch!"

"I don't like Loulan, and I don't want to stay there anymore."

"You should also sleep early."

After saying that, Gu Xun left here.

Snow Girl looked at Gu Xun's leaving figure, then looked at the moon, sighed softly, but suddenly showed a smile.

Over the past many years, she has been tortured by a principled issue and cannot extricate herself. That issue is stance.

She was caught in the middle between Gu Xun, the imperial advisor, and the Mohist family who opposed the empire, and she could never figure out an acceptable outcome.

But now she is much more relaxed.

During the battle with the Demon God, Gu Xun's true strength was revealed to many people.

Yuki-onna has witnessed the power of the Demon God of War with her own eyes, so she can naturally understand how powerful it is to be able to directly defeat and destroy the Demon God of War. An empire with such people as its service cannot be shaken by anti-imperial forces.

In other words, if Gu Xun was truly loyal to the empire, the anti-imperial forces of the Mo family would have been razed and destroyed by him long ago.

But now, these anti-imperial forces, large and small, are all alive and well, which just shows that Gu Xun has never been on Ying Zheng's side.

After figuring this out, the snow girl suddenly felt much calmer.

Maybe there are still many knots between the two of them, but at least there has been a crucial improvement.

……Time goes back to the present……

The snow girl retracted her thoughts and said to Tianming, "Maybe you will meet again in the future."

When Tianming heard this, he smiled sharply, "Haha, that's for sure."

"Xiao Li may have returned to her hometown. I don't know where I can't find him, but Uncle Gu, isn't he some kind of national advisor of the empire? He sounds like a high official, so he must be easy to find!"

Shao Yu's face couldn't help but twitch when he heard this.

After seeing Gu Xun's strength, his biggest thought was to go back quickly, pack up his belongings, take his whole family with him, and escape from the empire.

This fighting power is outrageous!

Anyway, the act of opposing the empire is out of reach in (Gu Xun)'s lifetime. It's still important to survive and see if he can outlast the other party.

Thinking of this, Shaoyu finally couldn't help but ask Xue Nu, who was also an anti-imperial force, "Miss Xue Nu, I have a question, I don't know..."

When the words came to his mouth, Shao Yu was still a little hesitant, because the relationship between Xue Nu and Gu Xun was obviously not ordinary, and he was a little unsure whether he should ask the other party this question.

However, Xue Nu had already understood the question Shao Yu wanted to ask, and said bluntly, "It seems that Gu Xun's existence worries you a lot?"

Shao Yu scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed, but he still nodded and said, "Yes."

Of course, running away is just a joke, and searching for ancient times is always an unavoidable reality.

"The strength of the national master is so... powerful. With him in the empire, I'm afraid..."

Faced with this sensitive and sharp practical issue, before Xue Nu could say anything, Genie responded first, "The national preceptor is the national preceptor, and the empire is the empire. The two cannot be confused."

Looking at Gai Nie with a solemn and calm expression, Shao Yu hurriedly asked, "Mr. Gai, what do you mean?"

Gai Nie did not answer, but asked Shao Yu, "What is your attitude towards the empire?"

"Ah, our attitude towards the empire?" Shao Yu suddenly asked this question, still a little dazed, and couldn't answer for a while.

Our attitude towards the empire is... just to oppose it, what else can we do?

It has been said that they are anti-imperial forces.

But that was too low-end. Shao Yu organized his words a little and replied, "Our goal is naturally to overthrow Ying Zheng's tyranny and restore peace to the world!"

"..." Gai Nie was sitting on the camel and was speechless for a moment.

He didn't know whether Shao Yu was just young and naive, or whether he was pretending to be ignorant and righteous. Either way, it was not a good thing for a young man.

After taking a breath, Gai Nie asked in a different way, "If the empire changes its emperor, and it is no longer the arbitrary and militaristic emperor like Ying Zheng, will you continue to oppose the empire?"

"This..." Shao Yu opened his mouth, wanting to say that of course not, but he also knew in his heart that the reality was probably just the opposite.

They are the remaining aristocratic forces of the Chu State, and it is inevitable to oppose the Qin State.
