People in the Qin Dynasty, entertained during the Warring States period

Aside from not being able to see his face, everything else, such as his height and appearance, was almost identical to the King of Qin he had seen.

Could it be that Lü Buwei was thinking...?

Zhao Cheng's pupils contracted slightly as he understood what Lü Buwei wanted to do, and even more so why Lü Buwei had so easily allowed his brother to get involved in the Luo Wang organization.

That old codger Lü Buwei was trying to shift the blame onto his brother, making him the one who murdered the emperor.

"not good!"

Zhao Cheng, disregarding his own safety, suddenly appeared.

This immediately put Han Fei and Ji Wuye, who had just calmed down, on high alert.

"Who goes there?!"

Ji Wuye had been holding back his anger for a long time, and the rage in his chest was almost tangible; he wanted to kill!

Zhao Cheng rushed down, and Ji Wuye slashed down with his sword.

Zhao Cheng had no intention of fighting. He used his ghostly movements to evade Ji Wuye and arrived in front of Han Fei and the others.

The heavily armed imperial guards blocked the way, preventing Zhao Cheng from breaking through.

Han Fei shouted, "Who are you?! Are you here to assassinate me as well?"

Zhao Cheng was taken aback. He glanced at Cheng Jiao and Ying Zheng without thinking. Seeing that the two were not being held hostage by the King of Han, he decisively threw away his sword, knelt on one knee, and said, "King of Han, please forgive me. I have no ill intentions. I have only come to protect someone."

Han Fei was slightly taken aback. Following Zhao Cheng's gaze, he turned his head to look at Ying Zheng beside him, his eyes showing a questioning expression.

Ying Zheng shook his head and asked Zhao Cheng, "Who are you?"

Ji Wuye stared coldly at the silver-robed man behind Han Fei, unaware of who he was or why he deserved a top-tier expert as a bodyguard.

Zhao Chengxin had reservations, so he could only say, "My brother Zhao Gao was deceived. After discovering that someone wanted to use you to assassinate the young master, he sent me to Xinzheng day and night to protect the young master."

Young master… Ji Wuye thought for a long time, but he didn’t know which country the young master was from, let alone who Zhao Gao was.

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes. The master of the Six Sword Slaves was his mother, and the person who managed the Six Sword Slaves was Zhao Gao.

How can this be proven?

Zhao Cheng hurriedly said, "I will immediately order the Six Sword Slaves to cease hostilities and surrender!"

A carriage rolled in, and Li Si, gripping his envoy's staff tightly, stood on the carriage and kept urging, "Faster, faster!"

After much hesitation, he decided to risk coming to help the King of Qin, for it is always better to offer help in times of need than to add to someone's already good fortune.

Ying Zheng glanced at Li Si, who was rushing over with the envoy's staff in hand, and at the dozens of elite Qin soldiers running on the ground in the distance behind Li Si.

But he only glanced at it and then stopped caring.

He looked at Zhao Cheng, who was still kneeling on one knee, and said indifferently, "What's the use of kneeling here? Hurry up and go."

Zhao Cheng felt as if he had been granted a pardon, "Yes!"

Han Fei was somewhat helpless. He had led a large contingent of imperial guards on a relentless journey, intending to wipe out all the Heavenly-rank assassins of the Luo Net, but who knew...

Li Si first noticed Han Fei, then Cheng Jiao. With his intelligence, he immediately deduced that the person next to Cheng Jiao wearing a golden eye patch was the King of Qin.

He didn't call out immediately, but instead pretended to be nonchalant and calmly approached Han Fei.

"I have heard that someone has infiltrated Xinzheng posing as a Luo Wang assassin, intending to harm Your Majesty. As an envoy of Qin, I cannot tolerate these scoundrels affecting the friendly relations between Qin and Han. Therefore, I have come with men to deal with these villains."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly; this person was not bad.

Han Fei immediately understood that his junior brother had found out something.

"Please have the Qin envoy stand behind me and help me capture the thieves."

Li Si was more than happy to do so, secretly praising his good senior brother, and then took the opportunity to go to Ying Zheng's side.

Whether I can seize this opportunity to soar to new heights depends on this chance...

Chapter 358 The Immortal's Guidance

"Stop it all!"

Inside the dilapidated main hall of the Purple Orchid Pavilion, Zhao Cheng channeled his inner energy and roared.

Han Fei and the others were ushered in by Tang Qi and the members of the Seven Absolutes Hall.

When Gai Nie saw Ying Zheng present, his sword hesitated for a moment, and was dodged by Zhen Gang, the leader of the Six Sword Slaves.

When Zhen Gang saw Zhao Cheng, he was slightly taken aback. He knew very well how much Lord Zhao Gao valued Zhao Cheng and would never allow Zhao Cheng to carry out the mission of hunting down a Grandmaster.

Xuan Jian had gone mad and completely ignored Zhao Cheng's shouts, continuing his attack with his two swords in hand.

Cao Ze looked at Zhao Cheng in front of Han Fei with suspicion. Who was this person? What gave him the confidence to order such killing tools as the Six Sword Slaves?

Seeing the battle raging on, Zhao Cheng took out his token and shouted at the Six Sword Slaves, "Do you all want to be executed?!"

Han Fei said at the right moment, "Stop it, everyone."

Wei Zhuang paused for a moment, then sliced ​​across Luan Shen's scalp with his shark-tooth sword.

The god of chaos's once thick hair suddenly turned into a bald patch, staining his face red, and strands of hair fell from his head.

The God of Chaos, whose hair had been combed by Wei Zhuang, remained expressionless as he tore off the bandage from his arm and wrapped it around his head.

Zhen Gang immediately said, "Stop!"

All six sword slaves were injured. Zhao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that no one had died. Otherwise, if one sword slave had died, not only would he have had to find a replacement from the Net, but he would also have to let that replacement master the sword formation of the six sword slaves.

Wei Zhuang, Gai Nie, and the others surrounded the Six Sword Slaves with hostile expressions.

Tianze licked his lips, his snake-like eyes lingering on the hilt of the Six Sword Slaves' sword, a desire to possess it growing within him.

If his six snake bone chains were replaced with the Eight Swords of the King of Yue, wouldn't he be able to easily kill Cao Ze?

Zhen Gang knew that something big had happened, and it might be related to Gai Nie.

He knelt on one knee and called out, "My lord!"

Zhao Cheng's expression softened slightly, and he said, "It's not convenient to say more. Now I order you to immediately..."

Zhao Cheng glanced at Jing Ni and then remembered that this person was a traitor to Luo Wang.

But now that he has saved the emperor, his crime of treason should be wiped clean.

"Kill Xuan Jian together with Jing Ni!"

Zhengang's eyes showed hesitation, which was really against common sense.

Their mission was to eliminate Cao Ze and the traitor Jing Ni, so how did it suddenly turn into them ganging up on and killing Xuan Jian with Jing Ni?

Zhao Cheng flung the token at Zhen Gang's head, roaring, "Have you forgotten who you are?! Get out of here now!"

Zhen Gang's expression was stern. "Yes!"

The six sword slaves instantly attacked Xuan Jian, who was fighting Jing Ni.

Xuan Jian's eyes were filled with madness. "Are you also going to betray the Luo Wang?!"

Zhao Cheng sneered, "The net is Qin's net!"

Xuan Jian cursed Lü Buwei inwardly for ruining him.

The twin beauties made the first move, their two slender black iron chains coiling around Xuan Jian like venomous snakes.

Xuan Jian parried with his sword, and Jing Ni seized the opportunity to stab Xuan Jian in the face.

Xuan Jian met sword with sword, but before he could retaliate, he was attacked by the combined attack of Zhen Gang and the other four sword slaves.

Gai Nie returned to Ying Zheng's side and witnessed the infighting within the Luo Wang organization alongside Wei Zhuang and others.

The Wolf King's eyes revealed a look of schadenfreude.

Cao Ze, who was fighting the remnant soul, sensed something was amiss.

"Roar!"

Xuan Jian's body was covered in blood, and wounds appeared on his skin that seemed to have split open out of nowhere.

He stomped on the floor and suddenly rushed to Cao Ze.

"Watch out!" Jing Ni shouted urgently, and the Jing Ni sword in her jade hand was flung out like a shooting star chasing the moon.

Just when Cao Ze thought Xuan Jian was going to capture and kill him, Xuan Jian opened his mouth and swallowed the remnant souls of Yan Riqian and others.

The Jingni Sword stood between Cao Ze and Xuan Jian, but Jingni had misjudged Xuan Jian's target.

Cao Ze instantly grabbed the Jingni Sword and left, joining forces with Jingni. He looked solemnly at Xuan Jian, who had suddenly fallen into silence.

There seemed to be a kind of evil and violent power hidden within Xuan Jian's body.

The Six Sword Slaves have never shown any martial ethics, bullying the weak with their numbers and taking advantage of others' misfortunes.

Six famous swords thrust at Xuan Jian from different directions, intending to cut him into a human pig.

"Roar!"

Xuan Jian roared angrily, unleashing a terrifying wave of blood-red energy that sent the six sword slaves flying.

At this moment, Xuan Jian's eyes were bloodshot, and his already limited sense of reason had completely vanished.

Cao Ze's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly wondered what Xuan Jian had obtained from Yan Ri's remnant soul.

Could the Eight Linglong possess such a bizarre ability as to devour remnant souls and gain power?

At this moment, although Xuan Jian was without consciousness, he unleashed his full strength, which was comparable to Lu Goujian, the Three-Handed Sword Demon, who fought against Donghuang, and ranked him at the peak of the Grandmaster level.

But all of this is predicated on his ability to control this violent, mind-devouring power. Otherwise, he is nothing more than a beast with power but no substance. A hundred fully armed elite soldiers, using weapons, traps, and formations, could easily capture and kill Xuan Jian.

Xuan Jian was surrounded by a blood-red aura, domineering and unrestrained.

Just when Cao Ze thought Xuan Jian would fight to the death, he didn't expect Xuan Jian to smash through the wall of Zilan Pavilion and frantically flee out of the city.

Cao Ze took a deep breath. Had he misjudged the situation? Had Xuan Jian not lost his mind? Or had Xuan Jian acted on his animal instincts and turned to run?

The chaotic battle started strong but ended weakly and hastily.

The Six Sword Slaves knelt before Ying Zheng with Zhao Cheng. Zhao Cheng said, "My brother was negligent and was misled by a treacherous person. Please punish him, my lord!"

Ying Zheng stood with one hand behind his back, not even glancing at the Six Sword Slaves or Zhao Cheng.

He said calmly, "It's never too late to mend the fence after the sheep are lost. The good deeds and bad deeds cancel each other out. Get up."
