Chapter 94

A somber voice came from Meng Tian's mouth.

This voice was filled with chilling murderous intent.

It seemed that if such a person truly existed within their Meng family,

he would absolutely not let them off easily.

"Who else?"

Lu Li spoke once more.

When Zhao Mingqu mentioned the Meng family just now, Lu Li had glanced at Meng Tian behind him.

He could naturally see the anger in Meng Tian's heart.

Although he felt this matter might not have much to do with the Meng family,

holding the mentality of "better to kill the wrong one than let one go,"

Lu Li decided that after dealing with Zhao Mingqu, he must thoroughly investigate the entire Meng family.

"There are too many who want to kill Young Master Mo."

A strange smile played on Zhao Mingqu's face,

but the words he spoke caused intense murderous intent to erupt in Lu Li's eyes.

Beside them, Ying Mo remained calm.

He knew that exposing his edge too early would bring disaster upon himself.

In the past, he simply hadn't cared about such things.

He only felt he had the ability to resolve these disasters.

But thinking about it now,

he had still underestimated these people.

"I'll give you one more chance; tell me everything about those people, one by one."

Lu Li grabbed Zhao Mingqu by the throat.

He spoke word by word.

He even applied a little force with his hand.

Zhao Mingqu only felt a wave of suffocation wash over him.

The agony of oxygen deprivation made him instinctively try to pry Lu Li's hand away.

Lu Li did not let go so easily.

Instead, after letting this person experience the pain of death,

he slowly released his hand.

"Remember, this is your only chance."

"Just now was only to let you experience the pain of death."

"If what you say next still doesn't satisfy me, believe me,"

"you won't want to know the way you'll die next."

The cold voice echoed in Zhao Mingqu's ears.

A trace of terror flashed in Zhao Mingqu's eyes.

Because he clearly felt a thick murderous intent from this person.

Today,

he knew he would undoubtedly die.

But even in death, he did not want to face a painful end.

Zhao Mingqu slowly dragged his body on the ground, instinctively reaching up to touch his neck.

Feeling the pain coming from his neck, he lowered his head and said,

"The Wang family."

"Wang Jian, is he truly willing to hand over all the military power to Young Master Mo?"

"You must know, the Wang family holds immense power in the military."

"How could Wang Jian so easily give up the military power he spent a lifetime accumulating?"

"Isn't this the best reason?"

"Young Master Mo's excellence makes the old General Wang Jian resentful."

Although he said it this way,

Zhao Mingqu, with his head lowered, had a flash of hatred in his eyes.

But that didn't matter.

The Wang family wouldn't be able to escape either.

Thinking of this, a sinister smile appeared at the corner of Zhao Mingqu's mouth.

So they didn't want to get involved in this muddy water?

Today,

he, Zhao Mingqu, would use the power of this ghost to stir up the waters of the entire Great Qin.

Hearing the name Wang Jian,

Ying Mo narrowed his eyes,

blocking the contemplation in his gaze.

If Wang Jian truly took action against the Annan Army

for the sake of military power,

then he would be the next on the must-kill list.

"Get this cleared up for me."

Ying Mo said to Lu Li beside him.

Lu Li nodded in response.

He knew the Young Master had already become suspicious of the Wang family.

A flash of murderous intent also crossed Lu Li's eyes.

This Wang Jian had better not have been involved in that incident five years ago.

Otherwise, even if he had fought on the battlefields for Great Qin for most of his life,

he would still have to pay with his life.

When Meng Tian heard the name Wang Jian nearby, his lips moved.

The two most powerful families in the entire army were either the Meng family or the Wang family.

And the reputation of the old General Wang Jian was also resounding before Young Master Mo had made a name for himself.

Although the Meng family and the Wang family stood on different sides, Meng Tian still greatly admired this old general.

He also did not want this old general to have truly been involved in that incident five years ago!

Xianyang City,

The Wang family.

The night was already deep, and there hadn’t been the slightest movement outside the window for a long time.

Wang Jian sat alone in the study.

Before him, a flickering candle flame was placed.

Wang Jian’s gaze stared fixedly at the paper before him.

His eyes carried shock, fear, and also anxiety.

How could this be?

The moment he raised his head, he still couldn’t hide the shock in his eyes.

It seemed he had been deep in thought for a long time.

Wang Jian finally picked up a brush on the table and began to write.

The flickering candlelight hit his face,

carrying a trace of a mysterious aura.

After a long time,

he raised the paper from the table,

staring tightly at the content on it.

He didn’t know whether what he was doing was right or wrong.

But whether it was right or wrong,

he had to be worthy of the Wang family.

The Wang family could not be destroyed under his watch.

Wang Jian sighed deeply.

Subsequently, he stuffed the content in his hand into a bamboo tube.

Outside the window in the dead of night, it was pitch black.

But when Wang Jian opened the window, a black shadow quickly approached him.

Wang Jian didn’t seem surprised, handing the bamboo tube in his hand to the shadow with a worried heart.

“Time, fate.”

“None of this can be blamed on others.”

A lingering voice echoed.

Another room in the Wang family.

At this moment, Wang Ben looked at the information transmitted to him, his face full of fury.

“Zhao Mingqu has been captured, and even Donghuang Taiyi’s strike didn’t completely take down the Ghost; who exactly is this Ghost?”

When he said this, Wang Ben’s voice carried a trace of fear.

He clearly knew

that this Ghost appearing in Xianyang City

was for the purpose of investigating what happened five years ago.

First, Zhao Wanli was killed.

Subsequently, Zhao Gao had his head chopped off.

Now, Zhao Mingqu had even been captured alive.

Was it his turn next?

Wang Ben squeezed the paper in his hand tightly.

He hadn’t expected this Ghost to be so terrifying.

The strength was so great that it was shocking.

“General Wang, are you really planning to do nothing?”

A voice sounded from outside the door.

Wang Ben immediately raised his head and looked over.

Who?

Before Wang Ben could open the door,

a person dressed in a black robe walked in.

This person was in a black robe, covering his face tightly.

But Wang Ben recognized the person’s identity immediately.

Donghuang Taiyi.

“I didn’t expect you to have the leisure to come here.”

“I thought you would have fallen under the iron hooves of the Snow Dragon Riders.”

A smile that wasn’t quite a smile appeared on Wang Ben’s face.

“It seems General Wang doesn’t welcome me.”

“Zhao Mingqu has been captured alive, and I don’t know if it will be General Wang’s turn next.”

Donghuang Taiyi’s voice at this moment carried a trace of coldness.

He knew his identity had almost been exposed.

He wasn’t the only one involved in that matter back then.

Even if he was exposed, the others from back then wouldn’t have it easy either.

Donghuang Taiyi had come to find Wang Ben today precisely to make use of the power in his hands.

“What are you spouting?”

Wang Ben’s voice raised a few notches.

He had been very subtle in his involvement in the matter back then.

He hadn’t expected Donghuang Taiyi to know of his existence.

“General Wang, you must know,”

“if you don’t want people to know, don’t do it.”

“With the Ghost’s strength, it’s only a matter of time before he finds you.”

“As long as you help me, I can completely erase your traces.”

Donghuang Taiyi said in a calm voice.

He had come today to negotiate with Wang Ben.

“I’d like to know how you intend to erase the traces from back then?”

Wang Ben also knew that with the Ghost’s strength, it wouldn’t take long to find him.

He also didn’t want to become the Ghost’s next target.

“I want you to find a sanctuary in Xianyang City for my Yin-Yang School.”

“My Yin-Yang School will handle this matter for you.”

Donghuang Taiyi said with exceptional certainty.

This matter was very easy to resolve.

As long as Wang Ben’s traces were shifted onto their Yin-Yang School, it would be fine.

In any case, their Yin-Yang School had already been completely exposed to the Ghost.

The urgent matter was not to contend with the Ghost,

but to find a secluded place to recuperate.

Today’s battle

had made Donghuang Taiyi fully realize the terrifying strength of the Ghost.

If he hadn’t retreated early today,

he and the entire Yin-Yang School would probably have been left there for real.

Thinking of his Shadow Legion,

Donghuang Taiyi felt his heart dripping blood.

This legion was something he had spent a massive amount of energy to cultivate.

To create such a hidden force,

the entire Yin-Yang School had spent a great deal of effort.

He hadn’t expected it to be wiped out in one fell swoop by the Snow Dragon Riders today.

A sinister, cold killing intent flashed in Donghuang Taiyi’s eyes.

He hadn’t forgotten the Great Qin Iron Cavalry he encountered when his Shadow Legion retreated today.

If it hadn’t been for the pincer attack by the Great Qin Iron Cavalry led by Meng Tian,

his Shadow Legion wouldn’t have been completely annihilated.

Meng Tian.

Well done!

Great Qin...
