Wandering Sword Seller's Life in the Qin Dynasty

If Situ Wanli was happy, then Tian Meng was furious.

He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white, and the sinister and ruthless look in his eyes was almost overflowing. His body trembled slightly from extreme shock.

To his utter surprise, in a short span of time, both of Luo Wang's top-tier assassins were defeated. Yan Ri was severely injured, and Zhengang fainted. Even the sword that made him famous fell into the hands of this mysterious masked man.

These two top-ranking officials were Zhao Gao's trump cards, personally sent to help him control the peasants. They were his greatest source of confidence, but now, all his trump cards have been shattered, and his ambition seems to have been crushed in this moment.

Who exactly is this masked man?

Judging from the conversation between Situ Wanli and the other person, Situ Wanli and this person seemed to be quite familiar with each other.

Was it a powerful ally that Situ Wanli invited?

In an instant, a number of thoughts arose in Tian Meng's mind.

On the other side, Tian Zhong's expression was not very good either. He originally thought that Tian Meng had come with great power, and that it was a wise choice for him to assassinate his own hall master and side with Tian Meng. He even took the initiative to change his surname for this reason.

The changes happened so quickly.

In an instant, a mysterious expert appeared and defeated the two leaders of the Luo Wang organization.

Was I wrong?

Do not!

I did nothing wrong!

Tian Meng has not yet been defeated; the tide still turns in Tian Meng's favor.

While Tian Zhong was thinking this, Tian Meng on the other side also realized what was going on.

However, one person alone cannot change the situation. After all, the assassins sent by Luo Wang this time are not just two top-ranking assassins. It is true that the top-ranking assassins were defeated, but the remaining assassins can swarm in and kill this person.

Not to mention, there was also a large Qin army stationed outside Daze Mountain.

"I haven't lost yet!"

Just as Tian Meng was thinking this, the assassins from the Luo Wang organization also reacted and swarmed forward to surround and kill Xu Qing.

The defeat of the two top-ranking assassins did not instill fear in these killers.

Years of experience in the net had long since eroded their sense of "fear".

"kill!"

A cold shout rang out, and a Luo Wang (Net of Justice) assassin of the Killer rank took the lead in attacking, his long sword flashing coldly as he rushed straight at Xu Qing.

Once the first one appeared, a second followed. The other assassins from the Luo Wang organization responded in droves, some wielding swords, others gripping blades. Their densely packed figures surged towards Xu Qing like a tidal wave, their fierce killing intent sweeping across the entire area once more, as if to completely engulf Xu Qing.

Knowing they were no match for Xu Qing, they planned to outnumber him and wear him down through a war of attrition.

However, facing this overwhelming attack, Xu Qing remained calm and composed, his face showing no emotion whatsoever.

"Those who operate the Net are certainly courageous!"

Xu Qing once again published a sharp commentary.

After that, he didn't say anything more.

In his view, the only commendable quality of these people who were ensnared was their courage; aside from their courage to wield their swords against the strong, they had nothing else to offer.

After putting away his two swords, Xu Qing returned to being unarmed.

He still had no intention of drawing his sword.

These assassins from the Luo Wang organization are not worth him using his real sword.

He simply held up two fingers together.

A horizontal and a vertical line, drawn arbitrarily.

One black and one white, the two giant dragons immediately intertwined and flew past.

This is the essence of the Horizontal and Vertical Sword Technique that Xu Qing had previously experienced.

Throughout the ages, across the vast wilderness.

Many of the rushing assassins from the Luo Wang organization were sent flying, like kites with broken strings.

All the murderous intent dissipated completely during this process.

Complete silence fell before the tombs of the Six Sages.

Tian Mengcai made up his mind, but he had to face a fact.

This mysterious masked man's strength is simply supermodel-like.

In any case, he had never seen such a master in his entire life.

Because of Xu Qing's terrifying strength, the members of the Farmer's Clan, who were caught in an internal struggle, involuntarily stopped fighting. Everyone held their breath and stared intently at Xu Qing.

Zhu Jia stood there, his eyes filled with even more complex emotions, a mixture of surprise and curiosity.

Judging from the way Situ Wanli and Xu Qing addressed each other, they should be acquainted.

Who exactly is it?

He couldn't help but start speculating in his mind.

It can only be said that, unlike Situ Wanli, the Zhu family had far too little interaction with Xu Qing.

"You gave the farmers two choices earlier. Guess how many choices I can give you?" Sensing the gazes directed at him, Xu Qing ignored the farmers.

He simply turned his gaze to Tian Meng and asked him, the one who had instigated the calamity that befell the farmers today.

Although Xu Qing's gaze was extremely calm, when it fell on Tian Meng, Tian Meng felt as if he had been completely seen through, and he felt a chill run down his spine.

A feeling called "despair" welled up in his heart.

He was extremely unwilling.

After all I've done, is it all going to end in failure?

In the face of despair, a glint of ruthlessness and a sense of luck flashed in Tian Meng's eyes. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Xu Qing. His voice was cold and loud, carrying a deliberate intimidation that echoed throughout the area in front of the Six Sages' Tomb: "Your Excellency, do you really think that you can defy fate by your own strength?"

Xu Qing slowly raised his head, his tone calm: "Oh? What other tricks do you have up your sleeve? Feel free to use them all."

Tian Meng took a deep breath, suppressing the fear in his heart, and said, word by word, "Do you know that the actions of Luo Wang today were not carried out on its own, but were tacitly approved by the Qin state government!"

He deliberately emphasized the words "Qin official," a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes. "Outside Daze Mountain, it has long been surrounded by the Qin army. General Wang Ben is personally leading the troops. As long as he gives the order, the Qin army will swarm in and raze the entire Tomb of the Six Sages to the ground!"

"I couldn't bear to see the farmers destroyed, so I came here to give them a chance!"

"As a result, you openly oppose the Qin state and the Luo Wang (a military organization), pushing the peasantry into the abyss of destruction!"

Chapter 298 Calm Breeze Stops the Conflict

Moral blackmail!

This is absolutely moral blackmail!

If someone truly cherishes the life of a farmer, they would definitely hesitate after hearing Tian Meng's words.

After all, what Tian Meng said was true.

With the Qin army pressing in and the Luowang (a type of military force) now present, the peasants are in grave danger. A single misstep could lead to their annihilation, even if they do not submit to Tian Meng's words.

But it's perfectly normal to fall into deep thought or hesitate.

Unfortunately, Tian Meng guessed wrong this time.

He assumed that Xu Qing and Situ Wanli had a close relationship, and that Xu Qing had come here because of his friendship with Situ Wanli. In fact, Xu Qing himself was a farmer.

Little did they know, Xu Qing had never been threatened by others.

Or rather, what he hates most is being threatened.

"What do I care about the rise and fall of farming families?"

Xu Qing responded calmly to Tian Meng's words.

"If you think you can use the Qin state to pressure me, then you've really misunderstood!"

Tian Meng's expression changed again, but he quickly composed himself and began to speak, "Your Excellency..."

He still hadn't given up trying to persuade Xu Qing, because Xu Qing's demonstrated strength was too terrifying.

These people from the Luowang organization, which Xu Qing considered his source of strength, were all defeated by Xu Qing in an instant.

If possible, Tian Meng really didn't want to be enemies with such a person.

Everyone has desires, and one might be able to persuade another to side with them by using words, such as promising what the other person desires.

All I can say is that Tian Meng is ugly, but he has beautiful ideas.

Of course, Tian Meng did not give up the idea of ​​escaping.

Persuading Xu Qing is one option, but if things truly don't work out, the best course of action is to escape this place.

As long as he escapes and contacts the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven), the army stationed in Siji Town will surely kill even the most powerful person in the world. Of course, in that case, the Farmer's Clan will also be severely weakened, which would be detrimental to Tian Meng's plan to take control of the Farmer's Clan and become the leader of the Knights.

But if it really comes to that, he will not hesitate.

"Fuck your mother!"

The next instant, a curse came from Xu Qing's mouth.

These words caused Xu Qing to lose some of his masterful demeanor, and similarly, they shattered many of Tian Meng's schemes.

With a single step, Xu Qing's figure suddenly appeared in front of Tian Meng.

Just like before, when she moved from the tree to stand in front of Situ Wanli to help him block Yan Ri's sword.

This is the "Lightning Speed ​​Technique" cultivated to its extreme. In terms of speed alone, even Dao Zhi is not as good as Xu Qing, after all, Dao Zhi's skill is not as profound as Xu Qing's.

Upon seeing Xu Qing appear in front of him, Tian Meng's pupils suddenly contracted.

He instinctively wielded the Ganjiang and Moye swords in his hands, pushing his internal energy to its limit. As a result, the forces of heat and cold raged within his meridians, causing him extreme pain, but Tian Meng dared not hold back even a fraction of it.

After all, the defeat of the two top-ranked students was still fresh in everyone's mind.

The two swords crossed, and red and green sword light burst forth.

Yet, like a fleeting ephemera, it withers and fades in an instant.

Xu Qing's hand had somehow landed on Tian Meng's throat.
