Chapter 54: It has begun again, creating chaos through mystery? (Begging for flower support)
Late at night.
Inside Xianyang City.
Countless citizens of Xianyang City.
Had already fallen into sleep.
Yet at this very moment,
Within Xianyang City,
In the shadows everywhere,
Dark figures were hidden, their eyes sharp and sinister!
"Prepare to move!"
A man in black stared at his subordinates, his voice low and cold as frost: "Infiltrate the homes of the target individuals in Xianyang City with the utmost speed and sever their left hands! We don't have much time; we must be quick, or we might be spotted by the Ghost’s people. Do you understand?!"
"Understood!!!"
The men in black, hearing their leader’s words, felt a jolt in their hearts and responded in low voices.
"Move out!!!"
The leading man in black,
Took the first step, disappearing into the dark night, and snuck into a household in Xianyang City!
Li Si, the tavern shopkeeper.
Had just finished organizing the day’s accounts and was preparing to rest.
He stood up, walked to the window, opened it, and took a deep breath, looking at the pitch-black Xianyang City, thinking of what happened today.
"Young Master Mo..."
Thinking that Young Master Mo had actually been murdered, Li Si couldn't help but sigh: "What a pity..."
"If Young Master Mo could have inherited the throne, the Great Qin Empire would surely have been more stable, prosperous, and strong!"
"What a pity..."
"What a pity..."
Thinking of how outstanding Young Master Mo was in the past, he felt a deep sense of regret in his heart.
You see,
He had once received kindness from Young Master Mo!
It was precisely because Young Master Mo implemented new policies that business at his tavern in Xianyang City had become easier to manage.
Sighing with emotion, a look of helplessness appeared on Li Si’s face.
He was just an ordinary commoner,
Even if he felt great regret over Young Master Mo’s death and was furious at those deranged people, he was powerless to change these things!
With a sigh,
Li Si stopped thinking about it,
Intending to rest,
Suddenly,
Li Si discovered a dark shadow appearing in his room!
"Who?!"
Seeing someone suddenly appear in his room, his face changed in terror!
However,
The person did not speak,
Instead, their figure flashed,
Instantly rushing toward him,
A cold light flashed in their hand, and before Li Si could react, a cold gleam passed, and his left hand was instantly severed at the wrist!
"Ahhh—"
Instantly,
A miserable scream,
Erupted from Li Si’s mouth; his hand fell to the floor, and blood sprayed out!
The man in black looked at him clutching his hand and screaming, his eyes cold. After giving him a chilling glance, he turned, his figure flashed, and he disappeared!
Heading straight for the next target!!!
That night,
Inside Xianyang City,
Screams rang out one after another,
The hands of countless Xianyang citizens were severed!
The screams coming from everywhere,
Instantly alarmed countless people in Xianyang City,
In an instant,
Xianyang City seemed to wake up,
Lights were quickly lit, and countless patrolling soldiers of Xianyang City began to move!
The next day.
Inside Ying Mo’s residence.
A thick scent of sandalwood permeated the air.
Ying Mo held a lit sandalwood incense stick, his gaze fixed on a spirit tablet before him, his expression solemn.
The spirit tablets of all the Annan Army soldiers!
He was paying his respects to the soldiers of the Annan Army!
"Brothers..."
After offering the incense, Ying Mo stood before the tablets, his eyes deep, murmuring softly: "I have already begun to avenge you..."
"Please give me a little more time..."
"I will send everyone who harmed you down to atone for their sins!"
"Zhao Baili, Zhao Gao..."
"This is just the beginning!!"
Ying Mo’s lingering voice echoed in the memorial hall. In his eyes, light flickered, and in his mind, images of fighting on the battlefield with his brothers emerged.
They were a group of iron-blooded men!
They were passionate!
Heroic!
Fearless of any powerful enemy!
They were the guardians of the empire!
However...
They were betrayed!!!
This left Ying Mo with an unsettled heart!
Suddenly,
"Young Master..."
Lu Li’s figure appeared at the entrance of the memorial hall, calling out softly.
"What is it?"
Hearing Lu Li’s voice, Ying Mo returned to his senses, turned to look at her, and asked softly.
"Something has happened!"
Lu Li walked in, her expression serious.
"Hmm?! What exactly happened?!"
A trace of doubt flashed in Ying Mo’s eyes.
"Last night, Xianyang City suffered a large-scale attack by Xiongnu spies, resulting in heavy casualties..."
Lu Li said in a deep, serious voice: "Moreover, many Xianyang citizens had their hands severed!"
"What?!"
Ying Mo frowned, a trace of chill flashing in his eyes: "The Great Snow Dragon Cavalry just crushed tens of thousands of Xiongnu troops, and the Xiongnu spies dare to stir up trouble in Xianyang City at a time like this?!"
"And since when do Xiongnu spies target people’s hands?!"
"How ridiculous!!!"
"Are they treating everyone like fools?!"
Lu Li’s heart jolted: "Young Master, could it be that this is not as simple as just Xiongnu spies?!"
The second update is here!!
Phew, the author is working hard to release more chapters; I humbly beg for your support with flowers and recommendation tickets!!
This new book relies on these stats for support!!
Lu Li looked at Ying Mo in surprise.
Her thoughts flickered.
Pondering the hidden information in Ying Mo’s words.
However,
Before Lu Li could react,
A fierce and sinister light emerged in Ying Mo’s eyes.
"Five years have passed..."
"These people haven't changed a bit!"
"Five years ago, in order to kill me, they didn't hesitate to trap and kill thirty thousand innocent Annan Army soldiers..."
"Now..."
Ying Mo gripped the armrests of his wheelchair tightly, his knuckles turning white, his body trembling slightly: "Still for my sake, they are slaughtering the citizens of Xianyang City at will..."
"They..."
"Are still completely without a bottom line, extremely cruel!!!"
Ying Mo understood what those people were trying to do after a moment of thought regarding the situation Lu Li reported!
The so-called Xiongnu spies...
Were nothing more than a flimsy cover!
These people,
Everything they did,
Was just to continue hiding themselves!!!
Gritting his teeth hard, the killing intent in Ying Mo’s heart surged and boiled, a scarlet light flashed in his eyes, and his anger erupted!
"Want to keep hiding, do you?!"
"Heh..."
"Good! Good! Good! Very good..."
"I want to see if you have the ability to keep hiding yourselves!!!"
The madness and cruelty of those behind the scenes made Ying Mo’s heart extremely angry!
How could he not understand,
That the reason these people did this,
Was simply to intimidate him?!
Could it be...
That these people didn't know,
That the person with the severed hand he was looking for,
Was a Grandmaster-level powerhouse?!
Now they were attacking ordinary citizens, harming ordinary citizens, and severing the hands of ordinary citizens...
Just to intimidate him!!!
