Pfft!

Duan Shui's body fell to the ground, lifeless, yet even in death, he still tightly gripped the Duan Shui sword bestowed upon him by Luo Wang.

Seeing Duan Shui die, Jiang Chuan also put away his sword. He first walked to Ru Shuang's side and asked her a question.

Ru Shuang gently shook her head to indicate that she was alright.

Jiang Chuan was finally relieved.

Deep down, Ru Shuang also felt a bit sentimental.

In the past, she would never have dared to hope that she could defeat the top-ranked member of the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven). In fact, because she had spent many years in the Luo Wang, she understood its terror better than most people.

In the past, all she thought about was avoiding the trap.

Even after meeting Jiang Chuan, although they were still evading the net, they were also trying to confront it in the meantime.

Today, upon reuniting with Luo Wang, she discovered that Luo Wang, which had once filled her with fear, seemed to be nothing more than that.

The Luo Wang, ranked first among the Heavenly Ones, was so weak and insignificant.

The reason she felt this way was because she had become stronger.

Perhaps one day, even without the King of Qin's help or seeking a pardon, the net of entrapment will no longer be a threat to her.

Ultimately, it's because this is a world of swords.

As long as the sword in your hand is sharp enough and powerful enough, you can handle most troubles.

Why is the Net of Deception so terrifying?

Aside from their ubiquitous presence, it's because they possess a large number of powerful swords.

Jiang Chuan had no idea what Ru Shuang was thinking.

He walked over to Duan Shui, looked down, and glanced at Duan Shui.

Then, he reached out and grasped the sword that he had never let go of, even in his death.

"Bring it to you!"

The Broken Water Sword fell into Jiang Chuan's hands, and Jiang Chuan immediately felt that this sword was extraordinary. Although it was an ancient and seemingly broken sword, there was a different kind of power hidden within it.

.. ........ 0

"As expected of the Eight Swords of the King of Yue."

Jiang Chuan sighed.

He had naturally wielded the Jingni Sword, which also contained unique power.

No wonder the Net of Swords is searching the world for famous swords.

In this world, many famous swords conceal unique powers. Even if an individual is not particularly strong, as long as they can unleash the sword's power, they can still unleash extremely powerful strength.

However, despite the beauty of the Broken Water Sword, Jiang Chuan had no intention of keeping it.

He walked back to the carriage, looked at Ying Zheng sitting at the front of the carriage, and, under Ying Zheng's astonished gaze, placed the Broken Water Sword directly in front of Ying Zheng.

"Sir, what is this?"

After seeing Duan Shui die, Ying Zheng realized that his life-or-death crisis was finally over.

He thought Jiang Chuan went to Duan Shui's side to pick up his sword because he was interested in it, but he didn't expect Jiang Chuan to hand the sword over to him directly.

"Young Master Shang was assassinated by the Luo Wang organization. There must be some evidence to prove that the assassination actually happened, right?"

Jiang Chuan smiled and said something to Ying Zheng.

Although he had already revealed Ying Zheng's true identity during their previous conversation.

But once the crisis was over, he continued to play dumb and started calling Ying Zheng Wu "Young Master Shang" again.

Chapter 114 The Long Night Ends

Ying Zheng suddenly came to his senses.

He also realized why Jiang Chuan would say such a thing.

Although he was assassinated by the Luo Wang organization in Xinzheng.

But whether the assassination succeeds or not, it won't affect the person behind it.

Because there is no evidence.

The other party could easily deny ever ordering Luo Wang to assassinate him.

Furthermore, since he had sneaked out of Xinzheng this time, he couldn't make it public.

As the King of Qin, why did he leave Xianyang without permission and go to Xinzheng?

He couldn't explain it clearly, nor could he explain it to outsiders.

Perhaps the person behind the scenes saw this as an opportunity, which is why they sent assassins from the Luo Wang organization to kill him.

Success would be the best outcome.

If they fail, the person behind the scenes can easily shirk all responsibility.

You say the Luo Wang assassinated you, then "280," you should at least provide evidence.

Right now, the sword that Jiang Chuan gave to Ying Zheng is "evidence".

Although Ying Zheng never personally ruled the country or took control of the Luo Wang organization, he knew that the Luo Wang organization highly valued famous swords, and that the top assassins all possessed the most outstanding famous swords.

This top-grade sword from the Net of Heaven is enough to explain many things.

If he hadn't been assassinated by the Luo Wang organization, how would he have possessed this sword?

As for the claim that the person behind the scenes thought he wouldn't dare to reveal that he had secretly gone to Xinzheng.

Really?

Ying Zheng's gaze hardened.

He came to his senses again and said, "Well then, thank you for the gift, sir."

He put away the Broken Water Sword that Jiang Chuan had handed him.

Jiang Chuan smiled faintly and said, "Please also remember what I said earlier, Young Master Shang."

Ying Zheng certainly remembered what Jiang Chuan had asked for earlier.

Jiang Chuan saved his life and helped him, but what did he ask for? Nothing more than a pardon.

If he were to truly assume power and take control of everything, granting a pardon would be an easy matter for him.

This life-saving grace is indeed heavier than Mount Tai.

"Don't worry, sir, I will remember."

"In that case, I have nothing more to say."

Jiang Chuan said something to Ying Zheng again.

Ying Zheng hesitated, wanting to say something about recruiting Jiang Chuan, but ultimately he didn't say it.

Because he was very clear about his current situation.

He, who was in a difficult situation, had no reason to expect others to share his dangers.

This person knew his identity and saved his life; that was already an immense favor.

He didn't need to seek anything more.

Ying Zheng was a very grateful person. He simply chose to keep this kindness in his heart and wait for the day when he could repay it.

Afterwards, Ying Zheng, carrying the Broken Water Sword, rode in a carriage towards Zi Nu's stronghold.

Along the way, Jiang Chuan and Ru Shuang led the way to help Ying Zheng resolve some troubles and ensure his safe arrival at Zi Nu's stronghold before leaving in peace.

……

A corner of the long street.

Jiang Chuan and Ru Shuang stood quietly.

Ru Shuang gave Jiang Chuan a deep look. "Is this the end?"

"What?" Jiang Chuan asked, puzzled.

Ru Shuang explained, "I thought my husband would talk more with the King of Qin, which would deepen their friendship."

Jiang Chuan smiled and said, "For me, this is actually enough."

"A life-saving grace in exchange for a pardon is enough."

"As for more?"

"I have no intention of seeking the position of Qin's Grand Tutor, so there is no need for me to have such a deep entanglement with the King of Qin."

Ru Shuang didn't understand why Jiang Chuan would say something like seeking the position of Qin's Grand Tutor. Could it be that establishing a friendship with the King of Qin was only for the purpose of seeking the position of Grand Tutor?

Is it not good enough to have high-ranking official positions and generous salaries?
