Zongman: Under One Person, join the chat group

"When King Zhao attacked Handan, Lord Wu'an remonstrated with him three times, but King Zhao did not listen and suffered a great defeat. As a result, General Bai Qi was forced to commit suicide!"

"He died by poison. This general, who was undefeated on the battlefield his whole life, ended up like this."

"This undefeated general died in a battle he never participated in. Tell me, how did the Qin Dynasty treat Lord Wu'an?"

"Even on his deathbed, the general never harbored any resentment towards the Qin state; he was loyal to Qin throughout his life!"

Wang Qi was once Bai Qi's deputy general. He followed Bai Qi in his campaigns against the six states and witnessed Bai Qi's strength and charisma.

He was captivated by him and regarded him as an object of worship! Now, his betrayal stems from resentment towards that very resentment!

Ying Zheng fell silent after hearing Wang Qi's words. Back then, there were many discussions about Bai Qi's death. Some said he was killed by the peasants, some said by the Mohists, and some said by other philosophers.

Various opinions emerged after Bai Qi's death, but it was impossible to know who was telling the truth and who was lying.

Bai Qi, a famous general known as the "Butcher of Men," was responsible for the deaths of half the people in the wars between the seven kingdoms over the years.

To the six kingdoms, he was a cold-blooded and ruthless executioner, a butcher who had killed millions! He was a nightmare whose very name instilled fear in the six kingdoms!

But to the Qin Dynasty, Bai Qi was the God of War! A war god who was invincible, who could win every battle and conquer every city!

His fighting style was extremely brutal, but that's how war is. His military strategy was not about winning, but about completely crushing the enemy!

By annihilating the enemy's forces, Bai Qi broke the backbone of the six states, rendering them unable to stand up again! This is the art of war of Bai Qi!

The path of war, forged from blood, flames, and corpses, is the path of the god of war!

"Young Master Shang, you are quite remarkable. Even when facing death, you showed no fear whatsoever. I admire your courage."

“I believe that if you survive and return to Xianyang Palace, you may become a great king and lead Qin to a more prosperous future.”

"But things have come to this, and I have no choice but to continue. Young Master Shang, no, Your Majesty, please take your leave!"

After venting his anger, Wang Qi's eyes turned cold. The moment he waved his hand, a hail of arrows shot towards Ying Zheng.

At this moment, a general who was standing next to Ying Zheng suddenly sprang up and stood in front of Ying Zheng to block all the attacks.

"you are?"

Ying Zheng looked at the unknown helper who had suddenly appeared and asked a question.

"This humble general is Meng Tian."

Meng Tian stood in front of Ying Zheng, his eyes fixed on Wang Qi. He had originally intended to wait for an opportunity to confirm Ying Zheng's identity later.

They then tried to sneak away with the other party, but they didn't expect Wang Qi to act so quickly and decisively.

He had no time to plan; his actions now were a last resort! He had no choice but to fight to the death!

"Fine, fine, you never expected you to betray me. Then let's die together! Fire the arrows!"

Wang Qi looked at Meng Tian and said through gritted teeth, and in an instant, the guards around him began to move.

They were all elite soldiers personally trained by Wang Qi. Individually, they could not compare to a master like Meng Tian, ​​but when they worked together, they were incredibly powerful!

Meng Tian was a master of martial arts, but even a skilled warrior can be overwhelmed by four opponents. Moreover, although Wang Qi was old, he was, after all, Bai Qi's deputy general back then.

His martial arts skills were in no way inferior to Meng Tian's. In just a short while, Meng Tian was surrounded and his hands and feet were bound by iron chains.

They were once again plunged into dire straits! Just then, a steed as fiery as flame appeared in the sky, galloping towards the military camp at incredible speed! Death.

Chapter Seventy: The Undefeated God of War, in the end, died in a battle he had never participated in before!

Accompanying the Qilin horse was the sound of a zither. Under the influence of the music, the arrows and swords transformed into lotus flowers made of iron. ...

These lotus flowers floated in the air and spun rapidly. In just an instant, the lotus flowers were stained with blood!

The desperate situation that had left Ying Zheng and Meng Tian helpless was resolved so easily when the Qilin horse appeared on the command platform.

Ying Zheng smiled as he looked at the man on horseback and said, "A song that breaks the heart, where in the world can one find a kindred spirit? It's been a long time, sir."

"It's a shame I didn't see you scared."

Qin Qi dismounted from the Qilin horse, then with a wave of his hand, the blood lotuses gathered together, turning into molten iron that condensed and finally formed a new lotus.

However, the bloodstains on it could not be washed off.

"A steed that straddles the sky, its body wreathed in flames; a zither that can withstand a million soldiers with a single tune."

"You are the musician who killed Lord Yanchun amidst the vast army of Yan."

Wang Qi looked at Qin Qi who suddenly appeared. He gripped his weapon tightly. His overwhelming advantage was shattered in an instant.

He was somewhat amazed by the other party's strength, but at the same time, he wondered why this person would come to help Ying Zheng.

"I did do these things. Who are you?"

Qin Qi looked at Wang Qi and asked.

"Wang Qi!"

After Wang Qi finished speaking, he suddenly sprang up and swung his large axe at Qin Qi. The move was so powerful that the air itself crackled under the impact!

Before the weapon even hit Qin Qi, the force of the impact had already shattered the stone bricks on the surrounding ground!

“Wang Qi, I’ve heard of you. You’re a famous general of the Qin Dynasty who once followed Lord Wu’an, Bai Qi, in his campaigns against the six states.”

"It's a real pity about Bai Qi. If I had come earlier, I might have been able to meet him and discuss the Dao with him."

Qin Qi shook his head. He really wanted to meet Bai Qi, one of the four great generals of the Warring States period, who was known as the "Butcher of Men" and the "God of Slaughter."

He easily blocked the large axe that was coming towards him, and then the shockwave instantly rendered Wang Qi unable to move.

"The battle is over!"

Meng Tian's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked around at the scene before him—all the soldiers were dead!

Even Wang Qi was no match for this person. Who is this person? Why is he so powerful?

Such a predicament was reversed in an instant! It's truly terrifying.

"Sir, you are really amazing."

Ying Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. The heavy burden that had been weighing on his heart for many days was finally lifted. Looking at Qin Qi, he suddenly felt full of confidence.

Meanwhile, Gai Nie, who had been rushing back at full speed, finally returned. When he saw Ying Zheng, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Young Master Shang, I am late."

"It's alright, you must have had a long journey."

Ying Zheng felt incredibly proud. They've all come! He was no longer alone; he was surrounded by many people.

Gai Nie, Qin Qi, and Meng Tian—he felt incredibly at ease at that moment.

"Sir, I will absolutely keep my promise. After returning to my country, I will take you as my national advisor!"

Ying Zheng spoke to Qin Qi. He genuinely wanted Qin Qi by his side; with Qin Qi's presence, he felt a deep sense of security.

No matter what difficulties he faced, he believed he could overcome them! He knew he was no longer alone in facing them!

"I don't care about being a national advisor. Do you remember what I said? If I had been born into a family of emperors and generals, you and I would definitely be rivals, and it would be a fight to the death."

"Fortunately, I am just a wandering musician. What I pursue is completely different from what you pursue. We have no conflict."

"Therefore, the two of us are destined not to be ruler and subject. You will not submit to me, and I will not submit to you."

Qin Qi said, "I came just to see what your expression is like, and I also have a small request."

“Whatever your request, sir, just tell me, and I will definitely do it.”

Ying Zheng spoke.

"After you destroy the six kingdoms in the future, you need to preserve their ancient texts. Consider those texts as payment for the help I gave you this time."

Qin Qi spoke.

"Are you so certain, sir, that I can unify the six kingdoms?"

Ying Zheng spoke up. If he couldn't achieve that in the future, then Qin Qi wouldn't have gained nothing this time.

Do you think you can do it?

"Yes! My goal in this life is to unify the seven kingdoms. I will keep moving forward and keep striving to achieve this goal."

“Until the moment I die, there is no turning back or stopping on this path; I don’t even have the right to lose.”

"I must win, I must do it!"

Ying Zheng said this with unwavering resolve. He had no choice; he didn't even have the choice to die. He wanted to win, to keep winning, until he had defeated all his enemies!

"That's fine then. I'll come and take what I want the day you unify the seven kingdoms."

Qin Qi looked into the distance. At this moment, Xue Nu was still riding her white horse on her way here, but it would probably take her some more time.

"Humph."

Qilin Ma looked at Gai Nie. He had heard that Gai Nie was very powerful, but in his opinion, he was nothing special, having just been left behind by him.

Humans can't even see their own tails; when it comes to speed, they're just left to eat dust.

Qilin Ma looked at Gai Nie with a hint of disdain, but when he turned to look at Qin Qi...

He suddenly felt depressed again. No, he couldn't be arrogant. There was another monster who was so strong that he didn't seem to be human at all.

I must keep working hard, and one day I will beat him. Once I win, I'll make him carry me!

Qilinma secretly resolved to work hard and one day surpass Qin Qi, so that Qin Qi would carry him!

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was coerced by Wang Qi. Although I could die to prove my innocence, I am worried about Your Majesty's safety."

"Li Si would rather bear the infamy than fail to find Wang Qi's weakness and try to keep him in check, so as to save the king's life!"

Li Si immediately knelt down to beg for forgiveness, and then began to explain how he had warned the king step by step.

How did they guide Meng Tian to discover Ying Zheng's identity, and then how did they gradually expose Wang Qi's flaws?

After saying these words, Li Si immediately prostrated himself on the ground, his forehead already soaked with sweat.

Although he had placed bets on both sides early on, Li Si was still fearful even though Ying Zheng had won. He couldn't see through Ying Zheng.

I can't guess what the other person will do next. Will they believe my story? Will they let me go?

Li Si was unaware of this; he could only await Ying Zheng's decision.

Ying Zheng looked at Li Si quietly, without anger or emotion, simply watching for a long time:

"Get up, you did a good job."

Li Si breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. He was drenched in sweat and had lost all his strength, but he still managed to speak:

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Next, Ying Zheng spoke with Gai Nie and Meng Tian, ​​and then instructed them and Li Si to deal with the soldiers' corpses and the affairs of the military camp.

He then looked at Wang Qi, who was still alive at the time, and asked him some questions.

Ying Zheng drew his sword, intending to kill the traitor, but Qin Qi stopped him.

Why are you stopping me, sir?

"I'm not stopping you, I just want to ask you one question: why did you kill him?"

Ying Zheng looked at Qin Qi with a puzzled expression. Wasn't it obvious? The man in front of him had rebelled and wanted to take his life. Shouldn't he kill him?

"As long as this man lives, the turmoil will not cease."

Ying Zheng spoke.

"But there are so many more things he could have done while he was alive, so why kill the enemy? Because he was afraid the enemy would kill him in the future."

"To prevent this from happening, we must kill the enemy to eliminate future troubles. Are you afraid?"

"Think about it slowly yourself. I'm going to go get something to eat first."

Qin Qi patted the Qilin horse, then stepped down from the command platform and accurately located the food storage area.

The man and the horse began to eat.

..........................................

Ying Zheng watched Qin Qi leave, then walked up to Wang Qi, picked up his sword, and held it to the man's neck, asking sternly:

"Wang Qi, I will ask you one more time: Great Qin has treated you well, and I have treated you well, so why did you rebel? Who gave you permission to do this!"

"Haha, Your Majesty, I'll say it again: how Qin treats Lord Wu'an is self-evident. Your Majesty need not say more, just take action."
