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

Shen Leping stood on the tree branch, looking down at the mentally unstable Xuan Jian, and sighed helplessly.

He was injured by Cao Ze, but unexpectedly, Xuan Jian was also injured by Jing Ni, causing his mental confusion to worsen.

"Lord Xuanjian, haven't you made enough of a scene?"

Xuan Jian covered his head with one hand, his eyes bloodshot, and roared repeatedly, "Die! Wei Yong! You will die a horrible death!"

Shen Leping dodged several sword strikes from Xuan Jian, his face filled with gloom and frustration.

The leader of the Hidden Sun is really something; the mental suggestion he gave Xuan Jian had such a poor effect.

If he hadn't found Xuan Jian, who had been injured by Jing Ni, the night before, Xuan Jian would probably have been surrounded and killed by the guards of Handan by now.

The only option now is to wait until Xuan Jian is exhausted, then take him back to Luo Wang and hand him over to the leader of Yan Ri to strengthen their control.

Incidentally, the task of assisting Xuan Jian was delegated to others, such as Qian Sha.

That guy has a remnant soul attached to him and clearly knows mental techniques, making him the perfect person to assist someone like Xuan Jian in carrying out missions.

Unfortunately, his younger brother could only keep the He Shi Bi jade for a little longer.

"Ok?"

By the moonlight, Shen Leping suddenly sensed something was amiss in the woods; there was a human presence.

After a slight hesitation, Shen Leping concealed himself and quietly crept over.

Seeing the menacing group of people wielding swords, bows, and crossbows, Shen Leping knew something was wrong; he realized their stronghold in Handan had been exposed.

Cao Ze's ears twitched slightly as he heard Jing Ni realize that someone was watching them from the sidelines.

Without even thinking, I knew it was that scoundrel Shen Leping.

He subtly moved his finger, signaling Jingni, who was hiding in the shadows, to give chase.

According to Lian Cheng's intelligence, the Luo Wang stronghold in Handan has a small number of people, mostly low-level thugs, so there's no need for such a large-scale operation.

The reason Cheng Ge was asked to bring more people was to prepare for Xuan Jian and Shen Leping.

Shen Leping noticed someone approaching him and realized he had been exposed.

"Lord Jingni, it really has nothing to do with me. It was the order from Chief Yanri."

As Shen Leping retreated, he continued to plead his case.

The only response Shen Leping received was the pink sword energy shimmering under the moonlight.

Shen Leping inwardly groaned.

Normally, they would have already run away.

But Xuan Jian was still going mad; if he left, Xuan Jian would be doomed.

When the time comes, Yan Ri will definitely punish him severely.

Xuan Jian's frenzied commotion in the forest quickly attracted the attention of Cao Ze and the others.

"Tsk, has this guy gone mad?"

Cao Ze watched Xuan Jian slashing wildly while muttering something under his breath, and felt a pang of sadness.

In a way, Xuan Jian and he were similar; both wanted a wife, children, and a warm bed.

It's a pity he was caught in a web of intrigue, and it's a pity he encountered a scumbag like Wei Yong.

"Brother Cheng, ignore him for now. You take men and wipe out the Luo Wang stronghold in the forest. Don't let a single person escape."

"Alright, we're professionals at raiding homes!"

Cao Ze disappeared into the forest.

After two days of rest, his health had improved significantly, and as long as he didn't overexert himself, he would be fine.

This is a rare opportunity. We must try our luck with Jing Ni this time and keep Shen Leping here.

Shen Leping was chased up and down by the startled salamander.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Cao Ze sneering.

Then a bolt of black lightning flashed before his eyes and struck his left shoulder directly.

Shen Leping was startled.

He felt a chill on his left shoulder, as if most of the heat had been taken away from it.

At the same time, an extremely troublesome corrosive force began to invade from the left shoulder towards the neck.

The sword energy unleashed by Jing Ni behind him arrived in an instant.

He was instantly caught between life and death.

But he was, after all, the intelligence chief of the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven), and had ventured into countless dangerous places and explored countless secrets.

His greatest strength lies in his movement technique, which has reached a state of perfection and is so powerful that even a grandmaster would find it difficult to kill him.

"Shadow Shift!"

The two illusory shadows he instantly created were shattered by Jing Ni.

Shen Leping stood on the big tree and patted his chest in lingering fear.

He quickly used his internal energy to force Cao Ze's Yin Five Thunder Power out of his body.

"Hey bro, what kind of sneaky tricks are you playing in the middle of the night?"

Cao Ze felt it was a pity; Shen Leping's speed and agility were too outstanding, making him too difficult to kill.

The reason I was able to succeed just now was because Yin Wulei's home ground was not a thunderstorm, but a silent, dark night.

In the quiet of the night, his Yin Wu Lei is more concealed and harder to detect.

But now that Shen Leping was on guard, it was clear he wouldn't give him a second chance.

"Shen Leping, what goes around comes around. Stay here tonight!"

Three more bolts of lightning struck Shen Leping, and Jing Ni followed closely, blocking Shen Leping's escape route.

Shen Leping inwardly groaned; the two of them were working together too well.

In addition, he had just been accidentally struck in the left shoulder by Cao Ze, suffering a serious internal injury. Now he needed to find a way to leave with Xuan Jian as soon as possible.

"Shadow Shift!"

Under the watchful eyes of Jing Ni and Cao Ze, four Shen Lepings appeared and fled in four different directions.

Cao Ze had a sudden inspiration and said, "Jing Ni, the one to the east!"

Jingni landed, swung her waist, and instantly rushed towards Shen Leping in the east.

In the blink of an eye, he unleashed seven or eight pink sword energies.

Every sword strike was a deadly blow, showing no mercy.

Shen Leping was immediately dumbfounded. "Young man, your eyesight is too good! Did you learn the Farmer's School of Observation and Interpretation?"

Cao Ze went up and delivered a powerful blow to You Yin Lei.

"Take a guess?"

Chapter 74 Jingni was fed something even better

Shen Leping was a smart man; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to handle intelligence.

"Ugh! What terrible luck!"

He knew Cao Ze had guessed that he couldn't possibly abandon Xuan Jian and run away alone.

Jing Ni has already defected.

The remaining powerful first-class Heavenly One is very important to Luo Wang.

If used properly, it can even hunt down the masters of the six kingdoms and the hundred schools of thought.

"Young brother, I don't want the He Shi Bi anymore, please let me go?"

Cao Ze said calmly, "Letting you go is not out of the question, but now surrender and hand over all the information you know."

Shen Leping sighed softly, "Then there's nothing to discuss."

He knows far more than Yan Ri does.

Once word gets out, not only will the Qin state not tolerate him, but even Lü Buwei will not tolerate him, and he will face Qin's full-scale extermination.

Cao Ze snorted coldly, "Jing Ni, take him down!"

As the intelligence chief of Luo Wang, he knew that Shen Leping must know many secrets that were unknown to others.

He preferred to extract more secrets from Shen Leping than to deal with a dead man.

Knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to survive a hundred battles.

Shen Leping glanced at Xuan Jian, who was still going berserk not far away.

Given Xuan Jian's current insane state, it's virtually impossible for him to escape safely with Xuan Jian while being pursued by Cao Ze and Jing Ni.

There's no other way, it's time to push the limits!

"Hi, Lord Xuanjian, look here, I am Wei Yong!"

The next moment, a violent sword aura instantly tore through countless branches and leaves, sweeping over.

"Wei Yong! Die!"

Xuan Jian roared and howled at Shen Leping.

Cao Ze's gaze sharpened. He hadn't expected Shen Leping to provoke Xuan Jian. Wasn't he afraid of dying?

Jing Ni instantly appeared in front of Cao Ze, and with two swift sword strikes, she dispersed the aftershocks of Xuan Jian's blood-red sword energy.

With bloodshot eyes, Xuan Jian shattered the ground as he charged toward Shen Leping like a cannonball.

Blood trickled from the corner of Shen Leping's mouth, but he still maintained his indifferent expression.

"Young man, I'm leaving now!"

Shen Leping conjured two illusory figures, waved to Cao Ze, and left with Xuan Jian, who was chasing him.
