Journey to the West: Become stronger by taking on disciples, start by recruiting a demonized Sun Wuk

Everyone except Zhao Ji was overwhelmed by an irresistible force and prostrated themselves on the ground!

His entire body was lying prone on the ground!

Everyone was terrified by the sudden pressure, and their minds went blank.

What on earth is going on?!

When they looked up, they still saw Ying Zheng standing calmly and proudly.

And when I saw Zhao Ji, who seemed startled but also stood up straight, a terrible thought came to my mind.

This is a trap set by the king.

The king said he had mastered immortal arts, and it's true!

"Absurd, absurd, this must be a hallucination!"

Lü Buwei roared inwardly.

His eyes were filled with panic; he couldn't believe it at all.

But Ying Zheng's calm words immediately shattered his illusions.

"The disgraced official Lü Buwei formed cliques for personal gain, disrupted the court, and deceived the emperor."

"According to Qin law, he should be executed by being torn apart by chariots!"

"Where are the guards?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone noticed that the pressure had disappeared.

They stood up and found a person lying on the ground, unable to move or speak.

This person is Lü Buwei, whom Ying Zheng had just convicted.

The officials, who had been furious just moments before, now all looked at Lü Buwei, and then at Ying Zheng.

In the end, they all remained silent.

Lü Buwei realized that he had failed completely.

Sure enough, two guards immediately stepped forward: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

Ying Zheng coldly said, "Drag the traitor Lü Buwei away and execute him by dismemberment!"

"Yes, sir!"

The guards dragged Lü Buwei, who was lying paralyzed on the ground, away.

Everyone was too scared to make a sound, because the scene of being pinned down had terrified them.

Fifteen minutes later.

A guard returned to Ying Zheng and bowed to report: "Your Majesty, the wicked minister Lü Buwei has been executed by dismemberment."

Ying Zheng nodded.

Executing a powerful prime minister was a trivial matter for him.

"Hang Lü Buwei's head on the gate of Xianyang as a warning to everyone."

The guard replied, "Yes!"

Soon, Lü Buwei's head was hung on the city gate, and everyone in the city saw it.

The officials were terrified when they heard that Lü Buwei had been torn apart by chariots.

Especially those officials who had forced the emperor to resign, they were all trembling, fearing that they would suffer the same fate.

They now realize that they misjudged this thirteen-year-old king.

An official finally succumbed to fear.

He suddenly broke free of the ranks and knelt before Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, spare my life! I know I was wrong!"

After saying that, he kept kowtowing.

Ying Zheng ignored him; he was looking up at the sky.

The death of Lü Buwei caused a great shock to both the court and the people.

The dynasty's fortune and the essence of humanity that Lü Buwei had stolen back then are now all flowing towards Ying Zheng.

The flow of fortune was extremely fast, and it reached Ying Zheng in an instant.

It was immediately absorbed by the Tai Chi diagram of his fortune on his forehead, producing a huge roar!

Ying Zheng's cultivation level rapidly improved, going directly from the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal to the peak.

The strong wind generated by the breakthrough made everyone around lose their footing and stagger towards the ground.

Only Ying Zheng stood like a mountain, unmoved in the raging wind.

The yin-yang symbol on his forehead emitted a dazzling light, making him look like a god descending from heaven.

The ministers were deeply shocked by this sight and dared not have any disloyal thoughts. They all bowed their heads and submitted!

……

Deep in the Peach Blossom Spring, Chu Qing was sleeping.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, Ying Zheng's cultivation has broken through to the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal."

"All thought outcomes are synchronized and amplified, then mapped onto the host."

"The host's cultivation level has been raised to the second level of the Primordial Golden Immortal."

Boom!

Chu Qing's cultivation level immediately increased from the first level of Hunyuan Golden Immortal to the second level of Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

Feeling the powerful magic within him, Chu Qing exclaimed, "It's so comfortable to become stronger just by lying down."

"I reckon that kid Ying Zheng has already killed Lü Buwei and reclaimed his imperial destiny."

"He is decisive and ruthless in his actions, and has the imposing presence of the First Emperor of Earth in his previous life."

Chu Qing no longer wanted to sleep, so she took out a book from the system space and began to read it seriously.

The cover reads: "Records of My Experiences in Jambudvipa"; it is a type of article similar to a news article.

……

In Jambudvipa, there are seven kingdoms.

Recently, the Qin state has become the focus of attention.

The new Qin ruler, Ying Zheng, disappeared for a day.

He suddenly returned, executed the powerful Lü Buwei by dismemberment, and regained control of the court.

Within a month, all Qin officials associated with Lü Buwei were replaced.

Many young officials and generals were given important positions by Ying Zheng and quickly became the new elites of the Qin state.

Ying Zheng held absolute power, unmatched by anyone.

Rumors circulated that Lü Buwei was executed so swiftly because Ying Zheng had become a disciple of an immortal and learned immortal arts.

Therefore, none of the civil and military officials dared to oppose him, and they all submitted.

Those who know about this are all talking about it.

People envied Ying Zheng for being able to take a celestial being as his teacher.

But the officials and rulers of the six states scoffed at the news.

They had also come into contact with immortals.

Everyone knows that people of dynasties, especially royalty, could never learn magic arts to achieve immortality.

This is the law of heaven, an ironclad rule!

Those who violate this rule will be executed!

The courts of the six kingdoms, however, paid more attention to another piece of news.

The Qin state has already made it public.

King Ying Zheng of Qin will soon announce to the world that he will change the name of the country to the Great Qin Holy Dynasty, and Ying Zheng will be promoted from King of Qin to Great Qin Holy Emperor.

The six states didn't care that Ying Zheng changed the Qin state into the Great Qin Dynasty; they only cared about one thing.

Ying Zheng was going to become emperor!

From the time of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors onwards.

No one in his generation dared to claim the title of emperor!

Even the last ruler of the Shang Dynasty, that audacious tyrant who dared to mock the goddess Nuwa, only called himself King Zhou.

You, Ying Zheng, what right do you have to call yourself emperor!

You should know that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race are still alive!

The courts of the six states were all waiting in the shadows, hoping to see Ying Zheng make a fool of himself.

The day Ying Zheng ascended the throne would not be peaceful; a tremendous upheaval was bound to occur!

All six kingdoms were waiting.

Once Qin falls into internal strife, they will attack together and divide up the Qin state.

And so, under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Ying Zheng proclaimed to the world that the Qin state had been renamed the Great Qin Holy Dynasty, and that the time had come to ascend the throne as the Holy Emperor.

On this day, the altar in Xianyang, which was built specifically for worshipping Heaven, was surrounded by crowds of people.

The people were excited, but no one charged at the army guarding the altar.

A huge human-shaped statue stood on the altar, covered with a red cloth. Its appearance was mysterious and no one could see it, which aroused everyone's curiosity.

"Who is depicted in this statue?"

As the people waited with anticipation and curiosity, Ying Zheng, dressed in a black imperial robe and wearing an imperial crown, slowly appeared on an imperial chariot drawn by eight fine horses, escorted by his army.

Behind him stood the civil and military officials of the Qin state.

The people noticed that most of these officials were unfamiliar faces and young.

A wave of emotion swept through everyone's hearts.

The previous rumors about a major reshuffle of officials in the imperial court have been confirmed.

A moment later.

Ying Zheng stepped down steadily from the imperial carriage, his steps firm and each one exuding imperial majesty.

He was only thirteen years old, but no one dared to look him in the eye.

The officials respectfully followed Ying Zheng to the altar for offering sacrifices to Heaven.

Upon reaching the altar, the officials halted in their tracks.

Only Ying Zheng continued forward, climbing the steps of the altar step by step, finally standing at the top, looking down at the gathered Qin people.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

The crowd knelt in worship.

Ying Zheng calmly said, "Get up!"

He thought to himself, "From this day forward, this land will be changed because of my Great Qin."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Everyone stood up.

At this moment, Zhao Gao, who had gained power because of Ying Zheng's rule, stepped forward and shouted, "Uncover the red cloth!"

The red cloth was slowly lifted, revealing the statue.

The statue is of a man in a long robe.

He held a book in his hand, gazing into the distance.

The three characters "Jin Ping Mei" are clearly visible on the book cover.
