Chapter 161

~7 min read 1,285 words

Since Su Xuan took charge of the Yin-Yang School, the Yin-Yang School has actually been in a state of decline.

This is not surprising. After all, the two great masters, Donghuang Taiyi and Star Soul, have left one after another, especially the departure of Star Soul, the protector.

Comparatively, Donghuang Taiyi's departure had no impact.

It was nothing more than his outdated leadership being replaced by a more powerful leader.

Until today, after Zinu brought everyone from Zilan Pavilion back to the Yin-Yang School, the Yin-Yang School could be considered to have a bit of a prosperous look. More than ten years ago, Zinu was a famous master of the Yin-Yang School. If she had not defected, the position of Da Da Siming would have been hers.

After more than ten years, her strength had improved compared to that year. Her return could completely fill the vacancy left by Star Soul.

Zinu making such a decision was a good thing for Su Xuan.

This also made him think of Nianduan again. He just didn't know how Nianduan was considering it.

……

The destruction of Han caused a huge disturbance in the world.

Since the Spring and Autumn period to the Warring States period, I don't know how many vassal states have perished in wars. However, these were all small vassal states. The pattern of the seven states standing together had existed for many years.

Even if Bai Qi was arrogant in the past, he conquered the six states for Qin, plundered many cities and lands from the six states, and killed many people in the six states, but he never destroyed any of them.

Similarly, for the six states of Shandong, Qin was not an invincible enemy.

If Qin invaded them, as long as they chose to unite and use the strategy of vertical alliance, even Qin would not get any benefits.

But this was just what they thought.

Now, with the fall of Han, the pattern of the seven states standing together has been broken.

Qin's ambition is more terrifying than imagined. They are no longer satisfied with attacking cities and lands, but have turned to swallowing big countries.

Han has been destroyed.

No one can be sure who their next target is?

Zhao? Or Wei? Or Chu?

Han was located in a place of four battles. With Qin destroying Han, it means that the barriers between it and the other few countries have been completely broken. For Zhao, Wei, and Chu, before this, although they bordered Qin, the border area was not too much. They only needed to guard this part of the border to cope with Qin's attack. However, with the fall of Han, their borders with Qin suddenly increased a lot. If Qin wants to attack them, it can launch attacks from multiple directions and angles.

This is not a good thing for them.

Although they know that Qin just destroyed Han and cannot attack them in a short time, they have to guard against it.

Zhao, Wei, and Chu all fell into fear.

In Qin, some people were also shocked by the destruction of Han, and then began to doubt themselves.

"How dare he? How can he do this?"

Lord Changping Jun looked at Lord Changwen Jun in front of him and could not help but whisper to himself.

Lord Changwen Jun sighed and said, "It seems that this King of Qin's ambition is greater than we imagined!"

Lord Changwen Jun and Lord Changping Jun were relatives of the Chu state. The two countries had intermarried for generations. The old Empress Dowager Huayang was from Chu. Even, not long after Ying Zheng succeeded to the throne, under the auspices of Empress Dowager Huayang, Ying Zheng also married a princess of Chu and gave birth to the eldest son, Fusu. It is worth mentioning that this princess of Chu, strictly speaking, was still the half-sister of Lord Changping Jun.

As relatives of Chu, Lord Changping Jun's status was more noble and prominent than Lord Changwen Jun's. He was the son of the previous King of Chu and the grandson of King King Zhaowang of Qin.

In the past, King King Kaolie of Chu was a hostage in Qin and was highly valued by King King Zhaowang of Qin, so he married his daughter to him, and then gave birth to Lord Changping Jun. Later, King Qingxiang of Chu was critically ill, and King King Kaolie of Chu wanted to return to his country to fight for the throne, but was stopped by King King Zhaowang of Qin on the grounds that the situation was unclear. Finally, with the help of Lord Lord Chunshen, Huang Huang Xie, he used a trick to escape back to Chu, but left his wife and son in Qin.

Fortunately, his wife in Qin was the daughter of King King Zhaowang, and her status was noble, which made her not suffer too much.

After King King Zhaowang and his mother passed away, Lord Changping Jun was highly valued under the care of Empress Dowager Huayang. He and Lord Changwen Jun were the two pillars of the Chu relative forces.

Earlier, after learning about Lao Ai's intention to rebel, Ying Zheng visited Empress Dowager Huayang, and then Lord Changping Jun and Lord Changwen Jun helped with all their strength to help Ying Zheng quell the rebellion in Xianyang.

They helped Ying Zheng, besides the reason of Empress Dowager Huayang, why didn't they have the intention of Qin and Chu being friends forever?

This was them actively showing favor to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng married the princess of Chu. Before this, Qin and Chu had been friends for many years. The relatives of Chu helped him with all their strength, so he could not forget Chu. Chu was Qin's most solid ally.

As a result, the situation changed. Not long after the Lao Ai incident ended, this King of Qin directly revealed his hideous face.

This made Lord Changping Jun and Lord Changwen Jun dumbfounded.

After the Lao Ai incident, Ying Zheng first dismissed Lu Lu Buwei's position as prime minister with thunderous means. This was nothing; it could only be said that this King of Qin was tougher than imagined.

What really made them horrified was that King Ying Zheng of Qin used this great drought as an opportunity to raise an army to conquer Han during the chaos in Han. What was even more surprising was that Ying Zheng really destroyed Han, and Qin did not pay too heavy a price in the destruction of Han.

Han was destroyed, and the pattern of the world changed immediately.

If Ying Zheng stopped there, it would be fine.

What made Lord Changping Jun and Lord Changwen Jun talk here was that Ying Zheng 43 revealed his ambition at the celebration banquet.

He intended to destroy the six states and establish an unprecedented country!

Chu was also one of the six states of Shandong. If Chu was also destroyed by Qin, what would these relatives of Chu be? People of a destroyed country?

"We cannot let him go on like this; we must prepare early!" Lord Changping Jun calmed down and looked at Lord Changwen Jun and said.

Lord Changwen Jun was slightly older than Lord Changping Jun, but he was used to following Lord Changping Jun in everything, not only because Lord Changping Jun's status was noble, but also because Lord Changping Jun was more intelligent. "Have you thought it through? If this thought arises, the friendship between Qin and Chu for many years will be completely cut off, and it will even involve your sister and Prince Fusu..."

He knew very well what Lord Changping Jun was thinking.
