In order to become a Heroic Spirit, I had no choice but to cause trouble in history.

The First Emperor may have sacrificed some benevolence, but what he did was far more important than benevolence.

It is no exaggeration to say that this achievement benefits both the present and future generations.

While the courtiers kowtowed and the world bowed in submission, in the rainforest of the southwest, a burly man with a thick beard also knelt on the ground, his eyes shining with tears.

"My lord, you...you did it!"

"A feat surpassing all others, unprecedented in history—you—you did it!!!"

Ji Chao couldn't control his emotions and clenched his fist so hard that blood streamed down his forehead, yet his eyes were still filled with hot tears.

He had witnessed countless times Qin Shi Huang's unification of the world and his future as the First Emperor, but none of that could compare to the intense heat he felt in Xianyang from thousands of miles away.

Nothing can negate the greatness of its birth just because it will perish, let alone such greatness.

Wen Ju squatted on a rock behind him, looking at Ji Chao kneeling and bowing, he twitched the corner of his mouth and sighed.

Is a great man like Lord Xiang someone who needs to be worshipped...?

Perhaps only that King of Qin could do it.

If nothing unexpected happens, the world should now be under the control of that King of Qin.

The Kuaiji Zero and Kuaiji I stood to one side, silently watching Ji Chao.

Chapter 780 Xiang Ji, courtesy name Yu; Xiang Nuo, courtesy name An

late at night.

Ji Chao had calmed down from his excitement during the day. He was sitting alone by the river, cross-legged with his eyes closed, completely immersing himself in the thought key patterns. His whole body was radiating a shimmering blue light, which was quite magical.

Meanwhile, in the woods, Wenju was getting increasingly annoyed.

This is a rainforest, and it's unbearably hot even in the dead of winter. Most importantly, there are tons of mosquitoes!

"What on earth did the master go to do..." He lay on a log, utterly dejected, ignoring the mosquito bites and giving up all resistance.

The Type 0 and Type 1 didn't feel anything; mosquitoes couldn't bite through their skin.

“I feel you’re more annoying than a mosquito.” Yishi said bluntly. “We can’t control what the leader does. His actions are all well thought out. We can’t interfere and we won’t interfere. We just need to wait quietly.”

"You're quite annoying too. Look at your brother, so well-behaved and domineering, and then look at you." Although Wen Ju couldn't beat Yi Shi in a fight, he would never admit defeat verbally. After all, they had become quite familiar with each other, and now that Zero Shi and Yi Shi were starting to awaken their humanity, joking around wouldn't be a big problem.

"If I can't compare to my brother, I can't compare to you!" Yi Shi spat out a mouthful of saliva and moved closer to Wen Ju with wide eyes.

"How dare you compare yourself to an ordinary commoner like me?" Wen Ju also widened her eyes and leaned closer. The two almost kissed, staring at each other like that.

Snapped!

when!

"what!"

"Ow!"

Zero looked at the two of them expressionlessly and slapped Isshiki on the head.

Luckily, their mouths didn't meet; their heads just bumped together, which startled Ichishi.

But Wen Ju, being a mortal, couldn't do that. He let out a painful roar, clutched his head, and lay down, trying to roll over, but instead rolled off the log, hurting himself even more.

Wen Ju gave up thinking.

And by the river...

"That should be about right..."

The blue fluorescence on his body disappeared, and Ji Chao slowly opened his eyes.

"Ugh..." A sudden, sharp pain shot through his limbs, causing Ji Chao to involuntarily grit his teeth and barely manage to suppress a sound.

"Haa...haa...haa...uh—" The magic that enveloped him disappeared, and Ji Chao's appearance changed instantly.

He was originally a rather burly man with a thick beard, but now he looks like an old man with white hair.

Ji Chao silently looked at his withered hands and slowly clenched his fist.

"It's alright, there's still enough time..." A blue light flashed in his eyes, "Everything... is still under my control!"

The pain in his limbs was the accusation of the magic circuits being overburdened; his gray hair was the price of seeing too much of the future.

He was neither a half-demon nor did he possess any divine blood, nor did he have any divine favor. He was just an ordinary human who enjoyed studying mechanical arts.

For someone like him to want to see things beyond the limits, he naturally has to pay a price.

but......

"It doesn't matter. I foresaw everything, I foresaw everything...!"

The magic trick was performed again; the white-haired old man disappeared, and the burly man with a thick beard reappeared on the large rock by the river.

Ji Chao nimbly jumped off the large rock and walked into the woods.

I've arranged everything; all that's left is to move forward slowly.

Everything—is under my control!

......

While the Qin Dynasty was steadily advancing its reforms, a bloody purge was also slowly taking place behind the scenes. Although the Qin Dynasty on the surface had not yet completely shaken off the chaos of its recent unification, it was generally full of vitality, and the world appeared to be thriving.

In the rainforests of the southwest, the battle continued, and the three of them—Zero, Type 1, and Ji Chao—did not slow down their efforts to eliminate the alien races despite the increasing difficulty.

An elf continues to pursue his destiny.

Meanwhile, deep in the forests of southwestern Yunnan and Vietnam, malice is slowly awakening.

It was the embodiment of the resentment emanating from all the exterminated alien races and their extreme longing for the rich Central Plains; it was the dragon's skeleton that had fallen into monster form.

That is a divine beast imbued with demonic power, a rotten divine beast, a divine beast whose outer shell and inner self are completely rotten.

That was the last bargaining chip for the alien races and monsters to invade the Central Plains: the evil divine beast since the ancient times.

Now, it has opened its enormous maw, slowly and viciously gathering its power.

Ji Chao looked towards the far southwest and smiled slightly.

You are waiting for me, but I am also waiting for you.

I, Ji Chao, am the last descendant of the Jie Sect, a disciple of Daoist Siji, and my grandmaster Shuo Shang was Tongtian Jiaozhu, one of the Three Pure Ones. It is only natural that I must restore peace to the Central Plains!

Not only for the Central Plains, but also for my friend, the First Emperor, and for my children, Kuaiji Zero and Kuaiji One.

No, since they will all eventually be human, then the codenames are no longer appropriate...

It doesn't matter, I already decided on the name myself, didn't I?

Zero felt an involuntary unease and looked towards the depths of the southwestern forest.

“At this rate, we should be able to wipe out all the alien races in about a year,” Zero said to Ji Chao.

It is now 219 BC, and one year from now it will be 218 BC.

"Hmm, you've got a good grasp of the dates. So, are you also looking forward to life in the Central Plains?" Ji Chao looked at Zero with a smile.

"...It's not that I'm looking forward to it, it's just that I feel like there might be a lot of entanglements if I were there." Zero paused, shook his head, and said somewhat uncertainly.

"It seems your precognitive abilities haven't activated; it's still just your intuition at work." Ji Chao shook his head, unsurprised.

The art of divination is a life-shortening thing. If possible, he hopes that Zero can use it less. Even though Zero is a savior machine and not a human, he still wants Zero to use it less.

"Hey, why don't you install a future-predicting module on me too?" Yi Shi pouted. "When I fight my brother, he always manages to dodge my punches and kicks with that deadly intuition. It's completely unfair."

"Hahaha!" Ji Chao laughed and patted Yi Shi's hair. "What's this about fairness? You are you, and your brother is your brother. There have to be some differences between you two, right?"

He looked at the two machines kneeling in front of him, a hint of regret in his eyes.

“I will give you names, human names,” he suddenly said.

"Huh?" Zero and Type 1 were both taken aback.

Ji Chao first looked at Zero: "From now on, you will no longer be Zero. Your name is Xiang Ji, surname Xiang, given name Ji, courtesy name Yu. You are my eldest son."

He then looked at Yishi: "From now on, you will not be Yishi. Your name will be Xiang Nuo, surname Xiang, given name Nuo, Zi'an. You are my second son."

"As the eldest son of the Xiang family, I hereby inform you that Xiang Ji and Xiang Nuo..." He looked at the two brothers with a kind gaze, "...to be included in the family genealogy."

------------

Chapter 781 The Arrival of the Final Battle

"Does the master consider Zero and First Type to be human?" Wen Ju glanced at Ji Chao, looking at the two brothers who were overjoyed at receiving human names.

"What do you think?" Ji Chao endured the pain in his body, his attention not on the two brothers. "Perhaps all they need is some recognition."

"Hmm... I don't quite understand." Wen Ju pouted, "But since the adult says so, there must be a reason."

"And... Zero, no, Xiang Yu and Xiang An should have received this gift a long time ago."

He had long ago admitted that the two brothers should be human.

“However, directly acknowledging them as your biological sons and writing them into the family genealogy…” Wen Ju touched his cervical spine, feeling a slight unease in the air, but he didn’t pay much attention to it. Xiang Yu and Xiang An would eliminate all threats. “I remember you are a nobleman of the old Chu Kingdom, right? Is it really okay to do this?”

“No problem.” Ji Chao glanced silently to the east. “...The current Xiang clan is controlled by my second brother, and I believe this is the best recognition of their human identities.”

“That’s true.” Wen Ju smiled.

The Xiang brothers, who were excitedly sharing their names, suddenly stopped chatting and looked in the same direction.

Ji Chao clapped his hands, stood up, and formed a spell with his fingers: "Here we go again, prepare to fight."

......

After unifying the country, the First Emperor not only reformed many basic policies and carried out large-scale infrastructure projects to ensure peace and prosperity for the people, but also began his journey to tour the country.

His first tour was in 220 BC. He set off from Xianyang, heading northwest. After reaching Qingyang, he turned southwest, then turned towards Linyao. After reaching Linyao, he returned to Xianyang.

That area was leased territory of the Qin state. It was only with great difficulty that the dreams of the previous rulers to unify the world were realized. This tour was to pay tribute to their ancestors.

Now he is embarking on his second tour, an eastward journey, traveling from Xianyang all the way east, passing through Bolangsha to reach the former land of Qi, preparing to ascend Mount Tai for the Fengshan ceremony, and incidentally erecting a stone tablet on Mount Tai to praise the great achievements of the Qin Dynasty, and to offer sacrifices to the famous mountains and rivers of the world.

However, after completing everything, when the First Emperor was descending the mountain, a sudden storm struck. The First Emperor and his entourage hurriedly walked under a large tree, seeking shelter from the wind and rain.
