Chapter 221

If it weren't for his actions alerting the enemy ahead of time, this conspiracy would probably have already been completed.

"You all go down, and keep a close watch on those people."

Ying Mo said.

He truly felt a dangerous aura, but he did not know what those people wanted to do.

Lu Li and Wu Mian could only nod and leave after hearing Ying Mo's words.

They only saw Ying Mo's face becoming increasingly ugly, but they did not know what was on Ying Mo's mind.

However, both knew that since Ying Mo was unwilling to speak, he definitely would not say it out. ### CHAPTER 489

……

……

…….

In the imperial palace of Xianyang City.

Meng Tian had already left the palace, and once again, only Ying Zheng was left in the entire palace.

"Do you think he will blame me for only now intending to completely eliminate the Xiongnu?"

Ying Zheng suddenly said to the empty palace.

As soon as his voice fell, Ge Nie's figure immediately appeared in the palace.

"You should have eliminated the Xiongnu long ago."

Ge Nie said with a cold expression.

Ever since he learned that Ying Mo had died at the hands of the Xiongnu, he had intended to go and eliminate all the Xiongnu personally.

He did not have any special feelings for Ying Zheng; the only thing was keeping his promise.

He had to keep his promise to protect Ying Zheng for ten years.

In these ten years, the only person he developed feelings for was Young Master Ying Mo.

He had watched this little boy grow from a young child into a flourishing youth.

During this time, he had even taught him everything he knew.

He had originally thought he could see this youth's magnificent appearance.

And hear rumors about him in the martial arts world.

Even after the ten-year period passed, his sword skills could still be passed on.

Yet he did not expect that everything ended five years ago.

The hatred in Ge Nie's heart was no less than Ying Zheng's.

Ying Mo was the disciple he had set his sights on.

His own disciple was killed; how could he not be angry?

If it weren't for following Ying Zheng and keeping the promise of that year,

I fear that another Ghost would have already appeared in Xianyang City.

After Ying Zheng finished listening to Ge Nie's words, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

He knew that Ge Nie was blaming him.

"When I first learned that he died at the hands of the Xiongnu, my heart was also filled with anger and hatred."

"I wished I could have the entire Xiongnu buried with him."

"But I couldn't do that; the entire Great Qin could not afford it."

Ying Zheng said.

But Ge Nie's expression remained cold, seemingly unmoved.

Ying Zheng stopped narrating.

He knew that no matter what he said, it would ultimately not explain why he had not yet avenged that child.

As the most powerful person in all of Great Qin, as the person with the most terrifying power in all of Great Qin,

He could not use the power in his hands to avenge his own child.

What a sorrowful thing this was.

"This time, I will not let those Xiongnu go; no matter who tries to stop me, I will have the Xiongnu completely eliminated."

A fierce light flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes.

This time, he had completely made up his mind.

Even if it meant a protracted war with the Xiongnu, he would persist.

"Although I believe the Xiongnu should have been eliminated long ago, this matter is a trap."

Ge Nie spoke coldly.

Although he did believe the Xiongnu should have been eliminated long ago, he had to admit that this matter happened too abruptly.

Why did the news about the Xiongnu appear right after the Ghost released his news?

Although he did not understand the twists and turns of the officialdom,

This did not prevent him from feeling that something was wrong.

"I know."

"I know this matter is definitely not that simple."

Ying Zheng suddenly said at this moment.

A smile appeared on his face, a smile full of schemes.

"Those people simply want to use this news to draw the military power in my hands away."

"I am actually very curious to see what those people will do when I have no military power in my hands."

Ying Zheng said.

Ge Nie did not expect that Ying Zheng had already thought of this point.

He was slightly stunned, but his face remained expressionless.

"Why?"

He asked.

Why continue to do it even when knowing there is danger?

"This is what I owe him."

"The Xiongnu are like a thorn, stuck tightly in my heart."

"Now is the time to pull this thorn out completely."

Ying Zheng said.

"Even if the Xiongnu had not appeared,"

"I would have sent troops to attack the Xiongnu in the coming time."

Ying Zheng continued.

His body had been too severely damaged by the elixirs from before.

His entire body had completely collapsed.

Although he could maintain his current state and not let it deteriorate further,

It was entirely due to the elixirs the Ghost gave him back then.

Ying Zheng dared not gamble on whether his body could fully recover.

He only wanted to completely eliminate the Xiongnu before he died.

Whether for the son who would take his place, or for him.

He could not leave this hidden danger behind.

Ge Nie fell into silence.

Subsequently, his entire figure disappeared into the palace once again.

He had originally thought Ying Zheng did not realize this was a conspiracy.

Yet he did not expect Ying Zheng to understand it even more deeply than he did.

And he knew that this matter was a conspiracy specifically set up for him by those people.

Yet Ying Zheng still jumped into it without hesitation, even knowing it was a conspiracy. ### CHAPTER 490
