Chapter 307: Staff-Dissolution and Divine Travel, Night-Roaming Assassination!

After dismissing the old servant.

Li Mu opened the gift box and found, to his surprise, that it contained a walking stick.

"Interesting!"

A smile curled at the corners of Li Mu's mouth; he had not expected someone to send him such a gift.

Although he was getting on in years, he could still pull a heavy bow and tame a fierce horse; he did not yet need such a thing as a walking stick.

Could it be that someone hoped he would grow old quickly and use this stick?

Li Mu picked up the walking stick from the box and tested it; surprisingly, it was quite comfortable to use.

After testing it, he placed it back in the box. Although it was quite useful, as he said, he did not need it for the time being.

Compared to this gift, he thought of another matter and could not help but feel worried again.

Zhao Qian was usually dissolute and had a notorious reputation. Now that the King of Zhao had passed away and such a person was about to ascend the throne, could he really govern Zhao Guo well? Especially since the current Qin Guo had already revealed its ambition.

Han Guo had already been destroyed.

Previously, they had ordered Wang Xuan Jian to attack Zhao. Without a doubt, Qin Guo's next target was Zhao Guo. Could Zhao Guo withstand Qin Guo's attack?

Zhao Guo was adjacent to Qin Guo and constantly monitored the movements on the Qin side. Last year, although Qin Guo did not raise arms, Zhao Guo knew some of the basic domestic conditions. For example, Qin Guo vigorously promoted new agricultural tools, and whether it was the land of Qin or the occupied land of Han, they all welcomed a bumper harvest.

Although the old land of Han had only been under their control for a year, the people there unexpectedly had no one resisting Qin Guo, and no rebellions occurred.

This meant that Qin Guo had no internal troubles and could focus all its energy on the remaining five states of Shandong.

Qin Guo was already strong in national power, and now, with sufficient grain and no internal troubles, this was not good news for the five states of Shandong.

If the five states were to form a vertical alliance again, they might be able to contend with Qin Guo for a while, but the key was that some people could not see the reality. The King of Qi did not hesitate to go to Qin Guo personally to make friends with them, and Yan Guo also sent its Crown Prince to Qin Guo as a hostage.

These two states clearly believed that they were far away from Qin Guo and that Qin Guo could not threaten them.

In the blink of an eye, night fell.

A bright moon hung in the sky, and the moonlight, like a light veil, covered the land of the Nine Provinces.

In Li Mu's residence, the walking stick he had placed in the gift box suddenly flew out.

Vaguely, a blurred figure flashed across the walking stick; it was none other than the figure of Su Xuan. ===== CHAPTER 309 =====
