The Great Qin: Starting with marrying Jingni, I began my quest for immortality.

Jiang Chuan remained calm, raising his palm. The raging flames that had been raging all around him vanished instantly—no, not vanished, but surged towards Jiang Chuan's palm like a whale sucking in water, transforming into a sword of flames.

Cut out with one sword.

The opponent's body flew out and was immediately severely injured.

Seeing that he had fallen into a disadvantageous position, the figure made a decisive move and used his last bit of power.

Bang!

His body shuddered, and he died instantly.

He would rather die than let Jiang Chuan extract too much useful information from him.

"That's decisive."

Jiang Chuan glanced at the Luo Wang member who had committed suicide, and said softly, "Did you think that by dying, you could sever all the clues?"

After saying this, Jiang Chuan glanced at a certain spot in the passageway.

A wisp of obscure energy vanished quickly.

Honglian was eventually rescued by Jiang Chuan.

Everything turned out alright, though it was a close call.

After being taken back to the General's Mansion by Jiang Chuan, Honglian was still in shock, so Jiang Chuan naturally had to spend some time comforting her.

The next day.

When the court assembly was convened, Jiang Chuan, dressed in armor, went to the palace. After many ministers had gathered, he immediately stepped forward and complained to King Han.

He stated frankly that after an official was executed for corruption and bribery, his family members harbored resentment and sought revenge.

His wife was kidnapped by this group of people yesterday when she went out, but fortunately he found her in time and rescued her.

When Jiang Chuan revealed this, it immediately caused a huge uproar in the imperial court.

King Han hurriedly asked Jiang Chuan, "Is Hong Lian alright?"

The wife of Blood-Clad Marquis Bai Yifei is none other than his daughter Honglian. Although King Han married his daughter to Bai Yifei, he still cared about her very much, after all, she was his only daughter.

"Your Majesty need not worry, the princess is unharmed," Jiang Chuan said to King Han, reassuring him.

When the King of Han learned the reason for the incident, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Then his expression turned cold again.

Such behavior must not be allowed to grow.

The official was corrupt and lawless, and the evidence against him was clear. Executing him was to uphold the law of the land. However, his family members not only did not repent, but also plotted revenge.

It seems that his entire family should be executed.

The Qin state's system of collective punishment did have some merit.

The main reason why the King of Han had such thoughts was because it was his own daughter who was attacked.

Afterwards, Jiang Chuan handed over the prisoners he had kidnapped the day before to King Han.

The King of Han sent men to interrogate them rigorously. Upon learning that these people were all retainers of corrupt officials, he became even more convinced that this was revenge by the families of corrupt officials, and he was immediately enraged.

Jiang Chuan, on the other hand, used Bai Yifei's identity as a pretext.

They began to deliberately retaliate.

More corrupt officials were exposed and executed one after another.

For Han Fei in the past, eliminating corrupt officials was a very difficult task. He needed to go through old files, overturn their cases, and then find evidence of their crimes.

As for Jiang Chuan, he had the ledger in hand and was fully aware of all the officials who had dealings with Ji Wuye and were corrupt.

This time, he retaliated.

Officials who have engaged in corrupt or illegal activities are filled with fear and unease.

The key point this time is that they should not resent the Marquis in Blood, but rather the families of those convicted officials.

... .... 0

He committed a crime and was executed, so that was that.

They even dared to attempt to take revenge on the Marquis and the General.

Do you think you can take revenge on the Marquis?

Now look what's happened! Not only did he die, but he also dragged them down with him.

During this period, all they could do was carefully destroy the evidence of their crimes, and then keep a low profile, not daring to engage in any corrupt or illegal activities.

For a time, South Korea's administration was exceptionally efficient, reaching its highest level in a century.

On the surface, Jiang Chuan continued to intensify his crackdown and retaliation against these officials.

Secretly, he went somewhere else.

In the past, with the help of Yan Lingji, he subdued the Baiyue assassin group.

The Baiyue assassin group, including Yan Lingji, consists of only four people.

The other three are Wushuang Gui, Hushi Mo, and Baidu Wang.

In terms of strength, these three people are only average, and they also have quite a large appetite.

But aside from their martial prowess, each of these three individuals possesses unique strengths.

The Peerless Ghost possesses immense strength, born with divine power. The King of Poisons is proficient in all kinds of poisons, including the method of refining Zhenyu Qianye. The Corpse-Driving Demon is even more powerful, as he can make the dead speak.

The mastermind behind Honglian's abduction committed suicide in order to sever all evidence after Jiang Chuan revealed Luo Wang's identity.

His body was later handed over to the Corpse-Driving Demon by Jiang Chuan.

As long as the Corpse-Driving Demon is around, even if he dies, he will have to obediently reveal the whole truth.

Death is not the end.

Chapter 239 The Shocking Truth

Heaven knows how shocked Jiang Chuan was when he watched the anime and saw the Corpse-Driving Demon pull the vulture's corpse out of the graveyard and then ask it about the treasure of Fire Rain Manor.

Even though the Qin Dynasty world itself is mysterious enough.

But such methods are simply outrageous.

This is why, after developing the idea of ​​building his own force, Jiang Chuan first thought of the disbanded Baiyue assassin group.

"let's start."

Jiang Chuan said something to the Corpse-Driving Demon.

The Corpse-Driving Demon nodded.

Then, waving the soul-summoning bell in his hand, as the crisp sound of the bell rang, the Corpse-Driving Demon chanted incantations, and green light appeared. Gu worms slid out from his sleeves and burrowed into the body of the person who had committed suicide.

The principle behind the Corpse-Driving Demon's ability to control corpses lies in the use of Gu worms.

With the help of Gu worms, he can directly manipulate corpses in a "three-four-three" manner, turning them into walking corpses to fight against enemies.

If the corpse has been dead for a particularly long time, and the brain is still intact, the presence of the Gu worm can temporarily revive the corpse, allowing it to speak.

This is the result Jiang Chuan obtained after subduing the Corpse-Driving Demon and asking it questions.

Although I understand the underlying principles, I still find it unbelievable.

Under the manipulation of the corpse demon, the corpse successfully stood up.

Then, Jiang Chuan spoke up and asked the other party a series of questions.

After learning the answer, Jiang Chuan's eyes flickered, becoming incredibly deep.

……

The man in the straw raincoat loved fishing.

Fishing requires a lot of patience.

He considers himself to be very patient.

Years ago, Luo Wang sent him to Korea to infiltrate Nightfall. He spent many years gradually gaining Ji Wuye's trust and eventually became one of Nightfall's Four Fiends.

Even after becoming one of the Four Fiends of the Night and attaining a high position, he did not feel any restlessness.

He remains extremely patient.

He maneuvered through the darkness and the net, never revealing a single flaw.

If we're talking about unexpected events, the biggest one would probably be the deaths of Ji Wuye and his son.

This was beyond his expectations.

After that, Bai Yifei changed his previous attitude and took the opportunity to rise to power.

After guessing that the mastermind might be Bai Yifei.

The man in the straw raincoat didn't show much emotion and readily submitted to Bai Yifei. Later, when the Qin State's Luowang (Net of Heaven) encountered a crisis, in order to gain Bai Yifei's trust, he took the initiative to reveal his true identity to Bai Yifei, using the promise of attracting more Luowang members to join Nightfall as leverage, and gradually gained Bai Yifei's trust.

Everything seemed to be coming to an end.
