Wandering Sword Seller's Life in the Qin Dynasty

Like a cat being grabbed by the scruff of the neck, when Xu Qing's palm landed on Tian Meng's throat, a feeling of suffocation immediately struck, and an invisible force surged into his body through Xu Qing's palm.

All of Tian Meng's strength vanished at that moment.

The sword he had been wielding halfway through also fell from his hand.

clang!

The two swords landed with a crisp, clear sound.

The sound reached the ears of the other farmers, finally bringing them to their senses.

"Big brother!"

Tian Hu decisively abandoned his fight with the big iron hammer, leaped forward, and slashed at Xu Qing's back with the Tiger Soul Sword.

"Die!"

Tian Zhong, who had just changed his name, also had a ruthless look in his eyes. He had finally made up his mind.

His adoptive father, Zhu Jia, clearly could not forgive him, especially since he had previously attacked the leader of the Gonggong Hall to demonstrate his loyalty.

In other words, for him, there is only one way to survive now.

That means completely siding with Tian Meng.

If Tian Meng loses, he will face a complete reckoning, which is not a good thing.

A short sword suddenly slid out from Tian Zhong's sleeve. Holding the short sword, he rushed towards Xu Qing's direction, wanting to save Tian Meng.

Another person also made up their mind.

That was Tian Mi, who had stood with Tian Hu and the others from the very beginning.

After failing to become the head of the Kuiwei Hall, Tian Mi seemed to have completely abandoned her identity as a member of the Kuiwei Hall and started associating with the Tian brothers without any restraint. Of course, it was understandable that she did this, since they were all members of the Tian clan.

But the crux of the matter lies here: since they enjoyed the benefits of being a member of the Tian family, they should also suffer the corresponding consequences and be held accountable when the Tian family falls into decline.

Tian Mi lacked the courage of Tian Hu, Tian Zhong, and others.

Her decision was to escape.

If she could escape this place, with her beauty, she could easily find a place to stay in the world.

Unfortunately, she overlooked one thing.

Not everyone disregarded Tian Mi or took her seriously.

At least for Xu Qing, his attention never left Tian Mi after he arrived here.

How did he manage to deal with the Luo Wang people, talk to Situ Wanli, and keep an eye on Tian Mi at the same time?

Never mind that.

For experts, multitasking is standard practice.

They discovered that Tian Mi was trying to escape in the chaos.

Xu Qing was simply gripping Tian Hu's throat with his bare hands, and a powerful surge of energy erupted from his back.

Tian Hu and Tian Zhong, who were close to Xu Qing, were immediately hit by an invisible force and were sent flying.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Qing grabbed Tian Hu and flashed to Tian Mi at the edge of the room.

Where do you want to go?

"As a member of the Tian clan, shouldn't you stand with them through thick and thin?"

"It doesn't make sense to just run away like this!"

Tian Mi's body stiffened, and her expression became unnatural. "That..."

I don't want to hear anything you have to say!

Xu Qing swung his other hand, and Tian Mi immediately fainted.

Xu Qing had no intention of killing Tian Mi. It would be better to leave this matter to Wu Kuang, as Xu Qing had promised Wu Kuang back in Qi.

Although Wu Kuang's existence is now dispensable to Xu Qing and has little value to him.

But he is a man who keeps his promises very much.

Having promised Wu Kuang that she would help him uncover the truth of what happened years ago, she naturally did not mind handing over the instigator, Tian Mi, to Wu Kuang for disposal after arriving at the farmhouse.

For Xu Qing, knocking Tian Mi unconscious was no easier than swatting a fly.

His gaze then fell on Tian Meng's face, which he was holding in his other hand.

"Spare me... spare my life..."

With Xu Qing gripping his throat, Tian Meng's face turned ashen from the suffocation. He struggled to speak, trying to beg for mercy.

At this moment, all his ambitions vanished in the face of this life-threatening crisis.

Now, all he wants is to survive.

Or rather, simply living was always his highest pursuit.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have betrayed the Farmer's Clan after learning that the leader of the Heroes had given him a mission that would surely lead to his death.

"Whether or not I forgive you depends not on me, but on what you have done..."

Xu Qing met Tian Meng's gaze, and a glint of something sinister suddenly appeared in his eyes.

When Tian Meng met Xu Qing's gaze, his eyes gradually became lifeless.

His consciousness sank into oblivion during this process. In just one glance, Xu Qing used illusion magic to invade his mind, and Tian Meng's memories were also read by Xu Qing in the process.

He didn't access too many memories; he mainly focused on the recent period.

Xu Qing learned about Tian Meng's past.

From the moment Tian Guang found Tian Meng and assigned him a special mission, to Tian Meng discovering that the mission was a death sentence and voluntarily surrendering to Luo Wang... Xu Qing then learned about Tian Meng's life within Luo Wang.

Naturally, during this process, Xu Qing also saw Zhao Gao's face again.

"You really care about things related to farming!"

Seeing Zhao Gao's many promises to Tian Meng, Xu Qing could easily guess Zhao Gao's purpose.

They simply want to make farmers a powerful ally.

Later, he saw Tian Meng's secret letter to Tian Hu, instructing Tian Hu to send men to storm the Qin government, which worsened the relationship between the peasants and the Qin state.

This was a completely open conspiracy, but it was very effective, causing internal conflicts within the farming community to erupt and plunging them into complete chaos.

While the peasants were in chaos and the chivalrous leader Tian Guang was questioning Tian Hu, Tian Meng suddenly appeared with the experts from the Luo Wang organization. As for Tian Guang's fate, there's not much to say.

Despite being a chivalrous leader, he was ultimately not a master of martial arts when faced with the assassins of the Luo Wang organization.

Facing the top-ranking members of the Luo Wang organization, as well as the Tian brothers, Tian Meng and Tian Hu, this cunning and scheming leader of the peasant clan ultimately met a tragic end...

The Shennong Decree that followed was issued by Tian Meng in Tian Guang's name.

The goal was to capture all the high-ranking members of the peasant family in front of the tombs of the Six Sages.

Once he eliminates some of the rebels and gains some supporters, he can bring his power to the six elders and become the rightful new leader of the peasant clan, who will then be under his control.

"Pity……"

Xu Qing's gaze returned to normal, and he sighed.

It's unclear whether it's regret that Tian Meng's scheme failed, that Zhao Gao's plan came to nothing, or that it's regret for Tian Guang, a friend with whom they've had many dealings.

Then, with a casual flick of his wrist, Tian Meng, whose throat he had been gripping, fell to the ground.

He didn't faint, but lying on the ground, he looked no different from a dead snake, weak all over, his consciousness fading, as if he had gone mad.

Although there were still many people in the field who were loyal to the Tian brothers, such as the middle and senior levels of Lieshan and Chiyou Hall.

But now that Tian Meng and Tian Hu have been defeated by Xu Qing, and Tian Zhong, Tian Mi, and others have all collapsed and fainted, and all the assassins of the Luo Wang have been defeated, these people simply cannot stir up any waves.

Zhu Jia realized that his chance to turn the tide had arrived, and immediately led the remaining farmers to fight back with all their might. Soon, these people were either killed or wounded.

Meanwhile, Situ Wanli moved closer to Xu Qing during this time.

"Brother, I owe you a lot today!"

As a fence-sitter, Situ Wanli is a professional; his ability to change course with the wind is unparalleled.

Previously, when they were at a disadvantage, he was even prepared to side with Tian Meng. Now, Xu Qing turned the tide and saved them. Naturally, Situ Wanli had to come to Xu Qing's side to express his loyalty and get closer to him.

His back straightened involuntarily.

"You don't need to be too happy!"

Xu Qing glanced at Situ Wanli beside him, "Although the calamity has been averted, what Tian Meng said earlier is true. The Qin army is currently stationed in Siji Town outside Daze Mountain."

"If any of you handle this improperly, destruction will be the only thing waiting for your farming families..."

Upon hearing this, Situ Wanli's expression immediately became distressed again.

However, upon seeing Xu Qing, Situ Wanli felt as if he had found his pillar of support again.

"Brother, now that you have helped us avert this calamity, in your opinion, how should our farming family extricate ourselves from this great storm?"

His voice was not low. After Situ Wanli's words came out, Zhu Jia, Da Tiechui and others, while suppressing Tian Meng and Tian Hu's subordinates, couldn't help but look at Xu Qing.

Even though Xu Qing was still wearing a mask, no one dared to ignore him because of the commotion he had caused earlier.

"That depends on whether you are willing to follow the last wishes of your chivalrous leader!" Xu Qing answered Situ Wanli's question, and his words made Situ Wanli's body tremble.

"Last wish?"

He noticed the words Xu Qing used.

The Zhu family and others also noticed it.

In an instant, Zhu Jia used his movement technique to appear beside Xu Qing and Situ Wanli. "You mentioned your last wish? What exactly happened to the Heroic Leader?"

Zhu Jia looked at Xu Qing, his eyes filled with doubt and confusion.

In fact, his mind had been filled with questions ever since he arrived here today.

The Xia Kui was still alive, but he issued the Shennong Decree.

When they arrived, the leader of the knights did not appear; instead, it was the traitor Tian Meng who showed up.

Even if they were unwilling to admit it, the Zhu family had to guess that something might have happened to Xia Kui.
