Chapter 3

~6 min read 1,125 words

To put it plainly, it's not that he doesn't want to rebel, but that he doesn't dare to!

Without a powerful strength to rely on, who would dare to rebel in front of the First Emperor?

But... when the lottery was completed.

The instant that man—face like a sickly ghost, thin as firewood, with a pointed mouth and monkey's cheeks, gripping two Thundering Drums Gold Hammers—appeared before Facing Ying Su!

The very first thought that sprang into Facing Ying Su's mind was to rebel!

Because this character truly possessed the ability to stand against the entire Qin Army!

Let alone a few hundred thousand, even a million would be no problem!

Who is he?

Without a doubt.

Whether in novels or history, there is only one person capable of fighting a million troops alone!

The Western Mansion King of Zhao, Li Yuanba!

This man is truly too fierce!

Others cannot achieve single-handedly challenging a million troops.

Even Zhao Yun, in the novel, only broke through a million troops alone!

But... Li Yuanba truly can do it!

Because he has done it before!

And twice at that!

Back when Emperor Yang of Sui was touring Jiangdu, Meng Haigong summoned the eighteen rebel kings to Mount Siming to capture Emperor Yang of Sui!

Hearing the summons, the rebel kings raised clouds of dust as they led two million three hundred thousand elite troops to gather at this place.

In a fit of rage, Emperor Yang of Sui summoned the Western Mansion King of Zhao, Li Yuanba.

He alone, when facing Pei Yuanqing, Wu Yunzhao, Shan Xiongxin, and many other mighty warriors, directly swung his twin hammers, smashing dozens of generals to death, and later crushed over five hundred thousand troops!

One person alone scared off all eighteen rebel kings!

Later, in the Battle of Purple Gold Mountain, he was ordered by his father Li Yuan to seize the Imperial Jade Seal. Facing one million eight hundred thousand troops alone, he fought until mountains of corpses and seas of blood formed.

One million eight hundred thousand people—one million two hundred thousand of them were crushed to death by him alone, and the remaining six hundred thousand fled in panic!

And such a fierce warrior, now... has been summoned by him?

At the same moment, a character panel appeared before Facing Ying Su:

【Name: Li Li Xuanba, also known as Li Yuanba!】

【Age: 18 years old!】

【Ability: Possesses the strength of the Four Elephants, a perpetual motion attribute, never knows fatigue! Can single-handedly challenge armies of over a million!】

【Loyalty: One hundred percent, only obeys the host's commands! If the host tells him to go east, he absolutely won't go west; if the host tells him to die, he absolutely won't cling to life!】

At that moment, the character panel surfaced!

Facing Ying Su's eyes once again blazed with light!

The strength of the Four Elephants, the perpetual motion attribute!

Can single-handedly challenge armies of over a million!

These abilities alone made Facing Ying Su incredibly envious.

More crucially, his loyalty is one hundred percent!

If he tells him to go east, he absolutely won't go west!

And facing such an invincible fierce warrior capable of fighting one million eight hundred thousand people, Facing Ying Su was tempted.

At this moment, only one thing was spinning in his mind.

Rebel!

Rebel!

If he can be Emperor himself, why rely on Prince Prince Fusu?

If he can be Emperor himself, why bother with Zhao Gao?

Rebel!

Rebel!

003, Water Cannot Splash In, Three Hammers Smash The City Gate! One Man Fights A Million Troops Alone!

"Rebel! Rebel!"

At this moment, Facing Ying Su's heart was restless!

His heart was also pounding!

That's right, he has already summoned Li Yuanba who can go head-to-head with a million troops. If he doesn't rebel now, what is he waiting for?

Wait for Ying Zheng to die, for Hu Hai to ascend the throne, and then have his entire family killed?

Then... when should he rebel?

In a few more hours, Ying Zheng's eastern inspection team will set out.

Should he wait until the eastern inspection team leaves Xianyang before rebelling?

Or perhaps, lie low for a few months, wait for Ying Zheng to die, and then rebel?

Facing Ying Su pondered, and felt that waiting for Ying Zheng to die before rebelling would be logical and natural!

But... after thinking about it briefly, he laughed.

Why was he agonizing over this?

He already possessed the strength to go head-to-head with a million troops, so why worry about when Ying Zheng would die?

Why worry about when he would leave Xianyang City?

Completely unnecessary!

Utterly superfluous!

Just rebel outright!

That's right!

Right now!

Rebel while Ying Zheng has not yet left Xianyang City.

Though it may look bold on the surface, it is only bold in appearance — in truth, there is not the slightest bit of danger!

After all, that is Li Yuanba!

With a fierce warrior like Li Yuanba around, Ying Zheng cannot do anything to him either.

As for the rebellion failing?

What kind of joke is that? That is Li Yuanba! With absolute martial power, how could the rebellion possibly fail?

So, does he need to care about Ying Zheng?

So what if he is the emperor of all ages? So what if he swept across the six directions?

Before absolute power, any scheme or trick is nothing but a paper tiger!

So, there is no need!

Absolutely no need!

There really is no need to care about Ying Zheng!

Moreover, rebelling while Ying Zheng has not yet left Xianyang has another benefit.

That is… the succession edict!

No matter how one puts it, forcing Ying Zheng to write the succession edict and have him personally announce the throne's passing to himself is far better than simply sitting on the throne and proclaiming himself emperor!

That would be too lacking in legitimacy!

And the consequence of lacking legitimacy is that no one will heed you, leaving you with no choice but to use slaughter to force them into submission.

Although Facing Ying Su does not mind ruling through killing, he also does not wish to make things too bloody!

After all, his system is bound to the national strength of Great Qin.

The stronger Great Qin's national strength, the stronger his system!

Ruling through killing does nothing to bolster national strength!

The more Facing Ying Su thought about it, the more he felt he should rebel right now!

While Ying Zheng was still at Outside Xianyanggong, forcing him to pass the throne to himself would truly save a great deal of trouble!

After weighing it in his heart for a long time, he finally gave Li Yuanba the order directly:
