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

He suddenly stood up. "Since you're all here, I'm too lazy to hide it from you anymore. The death of Six-Fingered Black Knight is indeed related to me."

"It was I who asked the Yin-Yang Master Dongjun to kill the Six-Fingered Black Knight."

These words shocked everyone present.

"Why? Master, why would you do such a thing?" Qin Wuyang also stood up abruptly. He was tall and looked at Yan Dan with incomprehension.

The other Mohist leaders also looked at Yan Dan with angry and complicated expressions, waiting for an answer.

Yan Dan also gave them an answer: "Everything is for the sake of the Yan Kingdom."

"The Qin army is eyeing Yan with predatory intent, stationed on the border. To save Yan, I have no choice but to risk assassinating King Ying Zheng of Qin. However, the Six-Fingered Black Knight disagrees with this plan. Therefore, to ensure the mission can proceed, I have no choice but to eliminate him as well."

Chapter 348 The Mo Family's Deadly Trap

A series of harsh words were uttered.

Everyone felt a chill run through their bodies.

Even though I had drunk alcohol earlier, it did not dispel the cold; I only felt colder now.

"Just for this reason, you killed Six-Fingered Black Knight who was so good to you?" Master Ban's aged body trembled; he couldn't accept this outcome.

Yan Dan's change in attitude surprised him. He thought Yan Dan would deny it outright, but he didn't expect Yan Dan to admit it so readily.

Yan Dan closed his eyes, his face showing pain. When he opened his eyes, the pain disappeared. "For the sake of Yan, I had no other choice."

He ignored Master Ban and looked at Jing Ke, saying, "These things were told to you by Dongjun of the Yin-Yang School, weren't they?"

"As expected, the Yin-Yang School is a bunch of ungrateful wretches. Because I didn't give her that thing in time, she was very concerned and then told you about it, just to make our Mo family fall into internal strife."

"But it's not surprising, since the Yin-Yang School and the Mohist School have a deep-seated grudge against each other."

Yan Dan was speaking eloquently when Master Ban suddenly interrupted him, saying, "For your own selfish desires, you did not hesitate to murder the former leader. Yan Dan, you are not qualified to be the leader of the Mohist school, and you are no longer a disciple of the Mohist school."

"Commanders, the truth has come to light. I hereby propose a vote on the will of Heaven to jointly strip Yan Dan of his title as Grand Master and expel him from the Mohist school."

Master Ban looked indignant and looked at the Mohist leaders beside him, and said loudly.

The other Mohist leaders nodded in agreement.

Master Ban then said, "Those who agree to expel Yan Dan from the Mohist school can raise their hands."

Therefore, apart from Qin Wuyang, who was loyal to Yan Dan and somewhat hesitant, all the Mohist leaders raised their hands.

Thus, not long after Yan Dan had spent a great deal of effort to become the leader of the Mohist school, he was not only deposed as leader in a flash due to a divine decree, but was also expelled from the Mohist school.

Yan Dan simply watched quietly as the Mohists did what they were doing, without saying a word.

Seeing Yan Dan remain silent, Jing Ke assumed that the other party had resigned himself to his fate after his crimes were exposed.

He said coldly to Yan Dan, "Yan Dan, I don't care how much you have done for the Yan Kingdom. I only know that you murdered the Six-Fingered Giant for your own selfish desires."

"Now that you are no longer a member of the Mohist school, I must seek justice for the Six-Fingered Giant."

As he spoke, the sword Canhong, which Jing Ke carried with him and was originally forged to assassinate the Qin emperor, was immediately drawn. After the sword was drawn, a terrifying and fierce aura swept through the room, and everyone felt extremely oppressed.

Yan Dan felt extremely complicated as he watched Jing Ke wield the sword originally intended to assassinate King Ying Zheng of Qin, and turn it against him.

However, he was never one to sit idly by and wait for death. Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of taking a risky approach after the Yan state fell into crisis, and instead attempted to assassinate King Ying Zheng of Qin in order to save the Yan state.

The other sword was also drawn by Yan Dan.

Unlike the fierce and malevolent Remnant Rainbow, this sword is shaped like a ruler and exudes an aura of "harmony".

Like a sword, yet not for attack; dark eyebrows, yet without edge.

This is the token of the leader of the Mohist school.

Upon seeing the sword, Jing Ke became even more enraged. "Yan Dan, put down Mo Mei. You have no right to possess it."

Yan Dan, however, seemed not to have heard Jing Ke's words, "Whether or not I can possess the Ink Eyebrow is not up to you, and even whether or not I am the leader of the Mo family is not up to you."

Everyone sensed something unspoken in Yan Dan's words.

Without the slightest hesitation, Jing Ke immediately swung his sword.

The sword energy was fierce and swept towards Yan Dan.

However, Yan Dan was no weakling.

With a flick of her dark eyebrows, she easily blocked Jing Ke's attack.

Jing Ke continued his pursuit of Yan Dan.

As one of the leaders of the Mohist school, Dao Zhi, who was highly skilled in lightness techniques, also made a move and instantly arrived on the other side of Yan Dan, launching a fierce attack on him.

Yan Dan's inner energy surged, and ink-colored sword energy was released from his dark eyebrows.

In an instant, Dao Zhi felt as if he were being pierced by numerous sword energies. Although these sword energies had no killing power, they severely hindered his movements. In addition, he felt as if he had lost his strength.

"Is this the power of non-aggression?"

Robber Zhi couldn't help but think about it.

At that moment, he realized that it wasn't a matter of non-aggression, but rather that there was a restless force within him, dissolving his strength.

The other Mohist leaders, including the hesitant Qin Wuyang and Jing Ke who was charging at Yan Dan with his sword, all felt the changes in their bodies.

"Yan Dan, what exactly did you do to us?"

Jing Ke angrily questioned Yan Dan.

"What do you think you did before?" Yan Dan asked calmly.

Jing Ke's mind raced, and he quickly guessed the answer.

Master Ban, Master Xu, and others also guessed the answer.

The group spoke in unison, as if by perfect understanding.

"liquor!"

"There's something wrong with the alcohol!"

..... . .......

"The wine is poisoned!"

"..."

Hearing what everyone was saying, Yan Dan stepped back and created some distance, saying, "You guessed right."

"Unfortunately, it's all meaningless."

"Because you are about to die."

“Originally, I didn’t want to kill you, but you found out the truth, and it just so happens to be before the Dragon Slaying Plan is implemented. In order to eliminate all variables, I have no choice but to painfully eliminate you.”

"As long as you are dead, I will still be the leader of the Mohist school."

"Rest assured, the Mohist school will grow stronger and more powerful under my leadership, far surpassing its current state."

Yan Dan spoke eloquently, observing the effects of the poison in the wine on the crowd.

Everyone's expression changed drastically, and someone exclaimed, "Yan Dan, you despicable scoundrel!"

Unfortunately, Yan Dan ignored them. Even though he was a despicable person, he survived to the end, while these people were all going to die.

Because of the poison taking effect in his body, Jing Ke's sword-wielding movements were full of flaws, and Yan Dan easily blocked them.

After that, Yan Dan shook off Jing Ke and slipped out of the room.

Seeing this, Jing Ke wanted to give chase.

However, as soon as the guest stepped out of the room, a sword was slashing towards him.

Unbeknownst to them, a large number of skilled fighters wielding sharp blades had appeared outside the room. They rushed into the room, intending to kill all the poisoned Mo family leaders.

This was also one of Yan Dan's backup plans.

Chapter 349 A Graceful Debut

Among the various schools of thought in ancient China, the Mohists were not known for their martial arts.

Their greatest skill lies in mechanical arts.

Perhaps fighting alone isn't very powerful, but with the help of mechanical beasts, even an ordinary person can still exert a strong influence.

Especially the four most famous mechanical beasts of the Mohist school.

The Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise—each of them can rival the most powerful masters in the martial arts world. Among them, the Azure Dragon possesses the abilities of the other three mechanical beasts, including the killing power of the White Tiger, the flight of the Vermilion Bird, and the sea-going ability of the Black Tortoise, and is even superior to them. Therefore, the Azure Dragon is a taboo in the Mohist school and will not be activated unless absolutely necessary.

However, if a true master were to invade the Mo family, the Azure Dragon would be their greatest protection.

After all, human strength has its limits, but mechanical beasts do not.

With a flick of its claws, the Azure Dragon possesses the power to split mountains and shatter rocks, far surpassing any so-called martial arts master.

This is also why, throughout the long years, although the Mohists and the Yin-Yang School had some grudges, and the Yin-Yang School had many masters, they were unable to do anything to the Mohists.

The Yin-Yang School might be able to intercept and kill some of the Mohists outside, but they are helpless against the Mechanical City.

The numerous mechanical beasts within the Mechanical City are enough to deter any expert who harbors ill intentions towards the Mo family.
