~7 min read 1,206 words

“What do you want to do, Prince?!”

The man in black not only did not answer Zhao Mingqu but instead asked back: “What do you think should be done in this situation now?!”

Zhao Mingqu heard the man in black ask him back, and his complexion sank, a look of dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes.

However,

before he could speak,

this man in black spoke again.

“Prince, you shouldn’t have taken action that day!”

The man in black said to Zhao Mingqu: “If you hadn’t taken action that day, there wouldn’t have been a risk of exposure!”

“It was precisely because you took action rashly that day, Prince, that you were caught by the ghost!”

“Making the situation fall into a passive state!!!”

Zhao Mingqu heard this.

His complexion sank even further.

A sharp light flashed in his eyes.

He snorted angrily, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: “What?! Are you blaming me?!”

“Are you worthy?!”

“Even your master wouldn’t dare to blame me!!”

“Who gave you the courage to dare to blame me to my face?!”

Zhao Mingqu’s tone was cold and murderous, and at this time, Feng Chen behind Zhao Mingqu was staring at the man in black with sharp eyes.

As long as an order was given, Feng Chen would take action.

The man in black saw Zhao Mingqu’s reaction, and the expression on his face changed instantly, feeling the terrifying pressure Feng Chen was exerting on him.

“No, no, no—”

The man in black shook his head hurriedly: “I am not blaming you...”

“Hmph!!!”

Zhao Mingqu sneered and stared at him sinisterly: “The matter five years ago, without me, Zhao Mingqu, do you think your master could have done it?!”

“Now that something has happened and there is a risk of exposure...”

“your master intends to kill the donkey after it has served its purpose and burn the bridge after crossing it?!”

“He wants to clear everything up?!”

“How bold!!!”

Zhao Mingqu’s cold tone fell into the ears of the man in black, causing him to tremble all over.

“Prince, you misunderstood!!!”

The man in black’s complexion changed wildly, and he shook his head hurriedly and said loudly: “My master has never had the idea of abandoning you, Prince, or cutting off the relationship with you!”

“Prince, don’t overthink it!”

“Regarding this matter, my master has actually already thought of a way and knows how to deal with it...”

The man in black explained hurriedly.

Fearing that Zhao Mingqu would misunderstand, thereby causing unnecessary trouble.

Zhao Mingqu had a cold expression and stared at the man in black’s explanation with a sneer.

After he finished speaking,

he then spoke sinisterly.

“Then what is your master’s plan?!”

A sharp light flashed in the depths of Zhao Mingqu’s eyes: “I suppose he already understands the seriousness of this matter; if there is no good plan, then no one will benefit!”

“If I have a problem...”

“none of you can run!”

“You all must die!!!”

As soon as Zhao Mingqu said this, the man in black did not dare to hesitate anymore and said hurriedly: “My master said, you don’t need to worry about this matter, Prince...”

“The ghost is currently looking for people who have lost their left palm...”

“Then, Xianyang City...”

“will soon appear with countless people missing their left palms!”

As soon as these words were spoken,

Zhao Mingqu’s pupils contracted violently,

his heart felt a chill,

and he understood the plan the person was talking about!

“You...”

Zhao Mingqu was somewhat shocked: “So crazy, doing this in Xianyang City, aren’t you afraid...”

“that Ying Zheng will be completely furious?!”

“If Ying Zheng is completely furious, then the matter...”

As soon as Zhao Mingqu finished saying this, a look of bitter laughter appeared on the face of the man in black.

“Afraid!”

“Everyone is afraid of Ying Zheng!”

“But...”

“we have no way out now!!!”

The man in black gritted his teeth and said: “And, how much longer can Ying Zheng live?!”

“As long as we hold out until Ying Zheng dies, then all these things can be handled as we please, right?!”

“Without Ying Zheng, this world...”

“who is our opponent?!”

Zhao Mingqu’s heart felt like thunder!

His eyes flickered violently,

and after pondering for a moment,

he gritted his teeth slightly,

“Good!”

Zhao Mingqu nodded and said in a cold voice: “Go back and tell your master that I, Zhao Mingqu, support his approach!”

“Good!”

The man in black nodded, then turned and left.

After the man in black left.

Zhao Mingqu stood in place.

Silence fell, and the expression on his face shifted uncertainly.

"Master..."

Feng Chen, standing behind Zhao Mingqu, suddenly spoke up: "Is doing this worth it? Why don't I just sneak out of Xianyang City?"

"I am at the Grandmaster realm; it would be quite easy for me to leave Xianyang City without a trace."

"As long as I leave Xianyang City, who could possibly track me down?"

Feng Chen’s words landed in Zhao Mingqu’s ears.

They caused Zhao Mingqu’s gaze to flicker slightly.

"No need..."

Zhao Mingqu shook his head slightly, a cold sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth: "That person just now was right; Ying Zheng won't live much longer."

"Once Ying Zheng is dead, everything will be easy to handle."

A sharp light appeared in Zhao Mingqu’s eyes: "With Young Master Mo dead, and Ying Zheng dead too, this world will be ours to control..."

Feng Chen nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"Master, your decision five years ago to kill Young Master Mo was truly a very wise one..."

Feng Chen suddenly said: "If Young Master Mo hadn't died, even if Ying Zheng died, Young Master Mo would have ascended to the throne immediately, and the Great Qin Empire would have been unbreakable, with no one able to shake it..."

"Indeed!!!" Zhao Mingqu, hearing his subordinate’s words, couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Young Master Mo was simply too outstanding. Many even believed he would surpass his father. Once he ascended to the throne, his control and oppressive power over the Great Qin Empire would have been even more terrifying..."

"Such a person had to die..."

"This world cannot afford a second Ying Zheng, or an emperor even more terrifying than Ying Zheng!"

"Otherwise, we would have no chance at all..."

In the past.

The reason these people united to kill Young Master Mo.

Was precisely because,

Young Master Mo was too outstanding, too formidable; he was practically a second Ying Zheng!

Even,

Surpassing him!

One Ying Zheng was already enough to leave them gasping for air,

They did not wish... for a second Ying Zheng to appear!

Especially,

Zhao Mingqu, who wanted to seize the imperial throne after Ying Zheng’s death,

Wanted Ying Mo alive even less!

Because he knew,

As long as Ying Mo was alive and successfully ascended the throne, he would have no chance at all, and could only spend his life hiding away like a coward!
