Chapter 225

~8 min read 1,421 words

The names of the two envoys fell into the Six-Fingered Black Knight's ears, and the Six-Fingered Black Knight's face changed greatly.

He was too familiar with these two people.

Both were Mohist leaders!

The Six-Fingered Black Knight was still thinking of going to stop Yan Dan's conspiracy and stop the Mohist faction from falling into Yan Dan's hands and becoming a tool for him to achieve his ambition, but he did not expect that Yan Dan had already completed the plan he told him about that day.

Offering the Dukang map and Fan Fan Yuqi's head was to gain Ying Zheng's trust.

Zhao Guo could satisfy these conditions itself.

But the later part, using Jing Ke as the chief envoy and Qin Qin Wuyang as the deputy envoy, meant that the Mohist faction had already agreed to his plan and was fully assisting him.

The Six-Fingered Black Knight's heart and mind were shaken. It took a long time for him to digest this news, and then he asked Su Xuan a question, "How long have I been sleeping?"

At first, he thought he had only been sleeping for a few days, but now, he finally realized that it was not as simple as a few days.

This was the Qin Empire, the Yin-Yang School. Just from Zhao Guo to the Qin Empire, it would take quite a few days.

Su Xuan did not answer this question. Duanmu Rong told the Six-Fingered Black Knight the answer, "From the time the Six-Fingered Senior came to the Yin-Yang School until now, a full two months have passed!"

The Six-Fingered Black Knight's face changed greatly.

Two months might not count for much in the past, but at present, two months were enough to change many things and finish many preparations.

Knowing that he had been in a coma for such a long time, the Six-Fingered Black Knight could not help but be in a state of confusion.

But in the end, he forced himself to calm down.

The reason was that sentence Su Xuan said earlier, that state letter sent by Zhao Guo to the Qin Empire.

He asked Su Xuan about the content of the state letter.

Su Xuan did not hide it and told the Six-Fingered Black Knight all the content on it.

Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, the Six-Fingered Black Knight was finally completely calm, "It's still in time, there is still time!"

This was what he thought.

Although Yan Dan might have already grasped the Mohist faction, let the entire Mohist faction become a tool for him to achieve his ambition, and selected Jing Ke and Qin Qin Wuyang, these two Mohist leaders, to carry out the assassination of Ying Zheng.

But the plan was one thing; as long as Ying Zheng could not be killed, everything still had room for maneuver.

From a certain perspective, him waking up at this time could not be considered late.

"Lord Master Xuantian, I need your help!"

Many thoughts flashed through the Six-Fingered Black Knight's mind. He looked at Su Xuan and said in a deep voice.

He then made his request.

That was, after the Zhao Guo envoys arrived in Xianyang, Su Xuan would take him to see the Zhao Guo envoys.

He needed to stop Jing Ke before Jing Ke committed a major mistake.

"Are you really not prepared to go see the King of Qin?" Su Xuan did not refuse the Six-Fingered Black Knight's request and looked at the Six-Fingered Black Knight, saying a sentence.

The Six-Fingered Black Knight's expression was serious.

He naturally knew what Su Xuan meant.

A long time ago, Su Xuan had revealed to him the Qin King's intention to recruit the Mohist faction, but the Six-Fingered Black Knight was unmoved because he believed the Mohist faction and the Qin Empire were not on the same path, and at that time, he had already made a choice—he chose Zhao Guo, so he clearly could not let the Mohist faction work for the Qin Empire again.

But now, facts had already proven that he was indeed blind.

The Yan Dan he had taken a fancy to was a wolf-hearted person, not a good person.

And at this time, he wanted to stop Yan Dan and prevent the Mohist faction from perishing with Yan Dan; he had to rely on the power of the Qin Empire. He had to make a choice.

Then, how did the Six-Fingered Black Knight choose?

After pondering for a while, in the end, he still yielded to reality and yielded to the choice in his heart.

The so-called reality was that the Qin Empire's general trend had been formed and was hard to reverse, and the so-called choice was that he wanted to preserve the Mohist faction. To preserve the Mohist faction, he did not mind going along with the general trend of the world, even if... it meant relying on the Qin Empire.

"I do need to go see the King of Qin!"

The Six-Fingered Black Knight said with a complex tone.

Afterward, the Six-Fingered Black Knight recuperated in the Yin-Yang School for a few days. After all, he had been in a coma for a long time, and now that he had just woken up, his body's various functions were still in a state of extreme weakness.

After recuperating for a few days and feeling that he had recovered almost enough, he went to Xianyanggong under Su Xuan's leadership.

Inside the Zhangtai Palace, knowing that the Mohist Leader, the Six-Fingered Black Knight, was about to arrive, Ying Zheng had been waiting here early.

If it were an ordinary person, even if they were the leader of the various schools of thought, they would not be worth Ying Zheng treating them so cautiously.

But the Mohist faction was different, and the Six-Fingered Black Knight was different.

The agricultural implements that the Six-Fingered Black Knight had manufactured for the Qin Empire had now been completely promoted. With the help of these implements, the Qin Empire could not say it had a bumper harvest every year, but its productivity had indeed been greatly improved.

Not to mention that besides manufacturing agricultural implements, the Mohist faction's mechanical way of attacking and defending cities could also be compared to the Gongshu family.

The Gongshu family's siege weapons had helped the Qin Empire a lot in the war. If the Mohist faction also helped the Qin Empire manufacture such weapons, then the various countries in the world would have no more strong cities, and the Qin Empire's desire to conquer land and unify the world would also become much easier.

The strategic value of the Mohist faction was immense!

Such a sect, having the opportunity to be used by the Qin Empire, Ying Zheng would not give up.

After waiting for a while, a middle-aged man in black clothes followed Su Xuan into the Zhangtai Palace. After seeing the Six-Fingered Black Knight, Ying Zheng had not yet said anything.

The Six-Fingered Black Knight bowed and saluted first, "Six-Fingered, greets the King of Qin!"

Not long after that state letter from Zhao Guo was sent to the Qin Empire, Jing Ke, Qin Qin Wuyang, and others set off from Zhao Guo.

This time, Zhao Guo did not send a very grand mission to the Qin Empire.

Because the more people there were, the easier it was to leak the news.

Therefore, there were only two people: the chief envoy Jing Ke and the deputy envoy Qin Qin Wuyang.

On the surface, they were envoys of Zhao Guo going to the Qin Empire to offer the Dukang land and hand over the head of the Qin traitor Fan Fan Yuqi to the King of Qin, Ying Zheng. But in reality, they were both assassins, and their purpose was to assassinate the King of Qin, Ying Zheng.

Before leaving, Yan Dan deliberately summoned them to his residence and gave them repeated instructions, all to make them understand the importance of the matter.

Qin Qin Wuyang patted his chest and repeatedly promised Yan Dan that he would definitely complete the mission; he would even die to complete the mission and kill Ying Zheng.

As for Jing Ke, he fell silent.

He naturally knew the weight of this mission, but in his heart, he still had an obsession that had not been eliminated.

Going to the Qin Palace this time, life and death were unpredictable. In the end, he still did not go to see his junior sister.
