When Ru Shuang said those words, her words carried a sense of resolute determination.

Jiang Chuan remained silent.

Although he had a suspicion when Ru Shuang recounted her origins, he still felt very uncomfortable when Ru Shuang actually said those words.

If it were when he first met Ru Shuang, he obviously wouldn't have had the courage due to Ru Shuang's powerful strength, but now, after spending so much time with Ru Shuang...

He gradually became familiar with it.

Aside from her formidable strength, Ru Shuang is actually quite fragile; she longs to be protected and to have someone to rely on.

With his thoughts racing, Jiang Chuan finally spoke: "You said that if possible, you would like to stay here with me."

"Then why not now?"

"You!" Ru Shuang looked at Jiang Chuan in surprise.

"If you're worried about causing me trouble, then you don't need to think that way."

"I'm not afraid of trouble. On the contrary, during this time we've spent together, I've gradually gotten used to this kind of life and to having you in my life."

"Ru Shuang, I know I am weak, but I wonder if you could give me a chance to take care of you and your daughter?"

Jiang Chuan spoke these words with utmost sincerity in his eyes.

Feeling Jiang Chuan's gaze, Ru Shuang was momentarily at a loss as to how to face him.

She lowered her head, her voice soft, "Jiang Chuan, the power of that organization is beyond your imagination..."

“But even the most powerful organization is subject to control, isn’t it?” Jiang Chuan’s tone was confident. “If we can eliminate that organization’s pursuit of you at its source, can’t you live a normal life?”

"Solve the problem at its source? Is that really possible?" Ru Shuang was somewhat skeptical.

Jiang Chuan's words were filled with deep confidence: "Why not?"

Chapter Sixteen: The Possibility of Breaking the Impasse

Before meeting Ru Shuang, Jiang Chuan was a time traveler, but due to the limitations of his environment, he could only honestly be a farmer. If nothing unexpected happened, the rest of his life would be spent constantly struggling for firewood and rice.

If he was lucky, he might live to old age and until the establishment of the "Great Han" dynasty. If he was unlucky, he might be caught in the crossfire of the continuous wars and die an innocent death.

After living like this for a year, he met Ru Shuang.

Meeting him was the luckiest thing that ever happened to Jiang Chuan.

He not only learned that martial arts existed in this world, but also learned what kind of world he was in.

Through Ru Shuang, he came into contact with martial arts and easily learned swordsmanship.

If these things hadn't happened, he would naturally have chosen to accept reality and become a farmer. But with these things, he inevitably developed some ambition. Of course, his initial ambition wasn't very big; he simply wanted to learn martial arts and fulfill his childhood dream of "wandering the world with a sword and wine."

But now, as Ru Shuang enters his world, as Ru Shuang recounts her past.

Jiang Chuan gradually changed his dream again.

His dream became helping Ru Shuang escape the snare.

For Ru Shuang, the Luo Wang organization was extremely terrifying, the greatest nightmare of her life.

For Jiang Chuan, although the Luo Wang organization is very powerful, it is not necessarily indestructible.

If the Luo Wang's arrest warrant for Ru Shuang could be removed at its source, could she then live a normal life?

As for Zhao Gao's words in the original work, such as "once a day is a trap, a lifetime is a trap," and "a person can die, but a sword cannot perish," Jiang Chuan never took them to heart.

Zhao Gao was nothing but a clown.

If Jiang Chuan hadn't known his historical fate, he would have truly believed he was incredibly powerful.

He claimed to be the master of the Net, but in reality, it was only because Ying Zheng needed someone to help him manage the Net after he took back control of it from Lü Buwei.

Zhao Gao was entrusted with important responsibilities by Ying Zheng because he showed loyalty to him and was skilled in flattery.

It must be said that his skill was truly remarkable; he even managed to fool Ying Zheng.

As a result, the mighty Qin Dynasty ultimately perished after only two generations due to the likes of Zhao Gao and Huhai.

However, Zhao Gao's own fate was ultimately not much better.

The story of Ziying killing Zhao Gao illustrates that no matter how high one's status or how cunning one is, a single blow can take their life and reduce everything they have to nothing.

Leaving aside the matter of Zhao Gao, if Jiang Chuan remembers correctly, the current Luo Wang (Net of Heaven) seems to be under the control of Lü Buwei.

Once Ying Zheng assumes full power and defeats Lü Buwei, the net of treachery will fall into his hands.

Therefore, what he told Ru Shuang—that the solution to the crisis stemming from the Luo Wang network should be addressed at its root—ultimately needs to be found in Ying Zheng.

Only King Ying Zheng of Qin could solve these problems.

So, how could one get in touch with King Ying Zheng of Qin?

As the future First Emperor, Ying Zheng held a lofty position, and ordinary people had no way of getting close to him.

Historically, Jing Ke's assassination attempt on Qin Shi Huang involved using the Dukang region of the Yan state, along with the head of Fan Yuqi, to barely get close to Ying Zheng.

But the world is different.

This world is not the world of history.

It's not a world of animation.

Coincidentally, Jiang Chuan had just watched that anime and knew its plot.

After he traveled through time, he calculated the time period he was in based on various events.

The present is the reign of King Zheng of Qin.

As expected, today, Ying Zheng will appoint Chang'an Jun Chengjiao to lead troops to attack Zhao. Ultimately, Chengjiao, misled by Fan Yuqi's slander, will rebel in Tunliu.

The turmoil was easily quelled, and then Cheng Jiao was killed by the Luo Wang assassin Qian Sha. Qian Sha was then dealt with by Xuan Jian. After killing Qian Sha and devouring Qian Sha's soul, along with several souls that Qian Sha himself had integrated into his body using special abilities, Xuan Jian's main body then fell into a deep sleep, transforming into the famous Qin assassin Linglong.

It wasn't until a year later, in Xinzheng, that it awoke again and revealed its true nature.

As for Jiang Chuan, the opportunity he needs to wait for is a year later.

That is, in the early autumn of the ninth year of King Zheng of Qin.

If I remember correctly, at that time, Ying Zheng, admiring Han Fei's talent, would bring Gai Nie and ride in the carriage of the envoy Li Si to Xinzheng, Han.

He wanted to invite Han Fei to join him in his grand endeavors.

In the end, Han Fei refused.

Ying Zheng himself, through his own selfish actions, put himself in danger.

It has to be said that Ying Zheng at this time was quite naive and immature. It's funny to think about it. As the King of Qin, he actually fled Xianyang on his own and went to Han.

Of course, regardless of whether Ying Zheng was naive or immature.

This is the only opportunity Jiang Chuan can find right now.

That is, go to Xinzheng, wait until then, take the initiative to befriend Ying Zheng, and then help Ying Zheng. When Ying Zheng officially assumes power and holds great authority, he only needs an imperial edict of pardon to easily resolve the troubles of the Luo Wang.

Besides, there may be other ways to resolve the trouble caused by the net.

However, given Jiang Chuan's current strength and the current timeline, there is no need to consider any other methods.

Thoughts flashed through Jiang Chuan's mind; in a short time, he considered many things.

He looked at Ru Shuang, whose expression was complicated and somewhat bewildered as she pondered how to resolve the troubles of the Luo Wang organization at their source, and asked earnestly again, "Ru Shuang, do you believe me?"

Ru Shuang snapped out of her daze, looked at Jiang Chuan, and after a moment of silence, said, "Of course I believe you."

"Since you believe me, then if I say I have a way to help you get rid of the trouble from Luo Wang, then I must have a way."

"But before that, we probably have to leave here."

"Leave here? Where to?" Ru Shuang asked Jiang Chuan.

Although she was the one who told Jiang Chuan that she was leaving, she hadn't decided where to go after leaving.

She was at a loss about what lay ahead.

Jiang Chuan said, "Korea, Xinzheng!"

Jiang Chuan mentioned something unexpected, something Ru Shuang had never considered.

Chapter Seventeen: The Wedding

"South Korea, Xinzheng? Why go there?"

Ru Shuang asked Jiang Chuan.

Ru Shuang was genuinely curious about the location Jiang Chuan had chosen.

In terms of the ratio between Han and Qin, Han was a notoriously weak state among the six states east of the Qin, and it happened to be blocking Qin's path to the east. Over the years, Han had been oppressed by Qin.

The state of Wei, where it is currently located, is also suffering from oppression by the state of Qin.

However, the state of Wei was ultimately stronger than that of Han.
