~5 min read 909 words

"His experiences are something none of us present have ever felt."

"The painful loss of his only younger sister—this is his suffering."

"And it happened right before his eyes; not going insane is already the limit."

Han Xin shook his head, actually feeling sympathy for this youth.

Previously, he had thought this youth would be unable to bring himself to act.

But who knew the result would far exceed his imagination.

He did it better than anyone else could have.

If he were at the youth's age, he would not dare say he could reach this step.

This is a person with a firm heart; at the same age, he was not as good as the youth.

"This kid is indeed not bad."

"To have such a temperament at this age is truly rare."

Wang Li also couldn't help but nod from the side.

Xiao He was speechless; all three of them opposed him.

Could it be that he really is too merciful?

"If this youth enters the army to develop, he might be a ruthless man."

"But if he enters officialdom, this temperament is prone to offending people."

"He is now all alone; do you have any thoughts of taking them in?"

Xiao He also felt a sense of compassion.

Wang Li and the other two looked at each other, all smiling and nodding.

"Let's see."

"We'll see later."

Han Xin and the others whispered here.

The youth was still torturing those people.

The remaining Xiongnu looked at the youth with a trace of fear.

They like to torture people, and even like to eat human flesh.

But seeing their own people being tortured was a different feeling.

This is something that cannot be helped; food is scarce on the grasslands.

A quarter of an hour passed.

The youth finally stopped.

Because the Xiongnu in front of him no longer had a human shape.

And his own body was stained with much blood.

The youth threw down the sharp blade and walked in front of Han Xin and the others.

With a thud, he knelt down.

Without saying a word, he directly kowtowed three times.

His forehead was bleeding, and the blood flowed down along the corners of his eyes.

"Youth, you kowtowed a bit too fiercely."

"Is there anything else you need our help with?"

"If it is to express thanks, there is no need for such a heavy ritual."

Wang Li looked at the youth with interest.

The youth raised his head, his gaze like a torch, looking at Wang Li and the others without blinking.

"Generals, you are all my great benefactors."

"You are worthy of this ritual."

The youth was very serious, his expression firm.

Originally, he had been thinking that in a few more months, when he reached sixteen, he would join the army to serve the country.

It would also count as providing for his only younger sister.

But now, such a thing has happened.

This is truly heaven playing tricks on people; worldly affairs are impermanent.

"From now on, I have no attachments."

"I want to join the army early and become a Great Qin soldier."

"I ask all the generals to approve my early enlistment!"

"In this life, I will definitely serve the Great Qin Empire!"

As the youth spoke, he kowtowed again, his whole body lying on the ground.

From now on, I have no attachments.

These words touched Han Xin and the others.

He is still a few months away from sixteen.

From now on, there are no more relatives in the world.

To not even have a single relative—thinking about it is also a bit tear-jerking.

Wang Li and the others looked at each other.

They also looked at this youth with new eyes.

"Youth, have you really decided?"

"A Great Qin soldier is not so easy to be."

"The selection is also riddled with difficulties."

Wang Li actually admired this youth very much.

But being a soldier is not child's play.

It would be best not to be just a momentary whim.

Upon hearing this, the youth raised his head and said fearlessly:

"No matter how difficult it is, I must become a Great Qin soldier."

"My goal from now on will be the Xiongnu!"

The youth's tone was firm; he was not afraid of so-called difficulties.

"What is your name?"

Han Xin became interested in this youth.

Therefore, he wanted to know what his name was.

"My name is Shanu!"

When the youth said this name.

The corner of his eye also glanced at the distant Xiongnu.

The hatred was monstrous!

Han Xin and the others were stunned.

This name...

One could tell just by hearing it that he had just changed it for himself.

"What a 'Shanu'."

"I can take you in, but I hope you will not be blinded by hatred."

"Otherwise, your life will be ruined just like that."

Wang Li finally nodded and took the youth in.

"From now on, you will follow him, Han Xin, my deputy general!"

Wang Li revealed a smile and helped the youth up.

Commandant Zhao had originally also wanted to take this youth in.

In the border defense army, such a youth is needed.

However, Wang Li had spoken before him, so it was not easy for him to speak again.

Han Xin was happy; this was what he wanted to see.

He slapped the youth's shoulder a few times forcefully. ===== CHAPTER 564 =====
