Chapter 371

The truth was like a sharp blade, making it hard for people to accept. After the Six-Fingered Black Hero finished speaking about the ins and outs of Yan Dan murdering him, he asked Jing Ke: "Tell me about the Mohist School's affairs after I was harmed!"

Jing Ke stared blankly at the Six-Fingered Black Hero, only then recovering slightly from the shock. No matter how unacceptable the truth was, he had to face it. He then told the Six-Fingered Black Hero about the things the Six-Fingered Black Hero did not know.

"That day, we received a letter from Yan Dan saying that you, the Six-Fingered Leader, had met with an accident. So all of us Mohist leaders headed to Jicheng simultaneously. In Jicheng, we saw your corpse."

"Yan Dan told us that it was the Yin-Yang School and the Qin Guo's Luo Wang who colluded to murder you!"

"The reason was that you had once assisted him in escaping from the Qin Guo, an act that deeply offended the Qin Guo."

The Six-Fingered Black Hero sighed, "He is quite good at finding excuses."

This reason was reasonable and well-founded, and since the Mohist School was already close to the State of Yan and detested the Qin Guo, if he were a Mohist leader and did not know the reason, he would also subconsciously believe what Yan Dan said.

Jing Ke's expression was complex. As he learned the truth of his misfortune from the Six-Fingered Black Hero's mouth and knew that Yan Dan was a hypocrite, his attitude toward Yan Dan also underwent some changes.

People will subconsciously believe those who are closer to them.

And within the Mohist School, the person Jing Ke was closest to was undoubtedly the Six-Fingered Black Hero. It could be said that after his master Gongsun Yu died, the only two people he was closest to were his junior sister Gongsun Liji and the Six-Fingered Black Hero.

When the Six-Fingered Black Hero met with misfortune, he was the one who felt the worst.

When the Six-Fingered Black Hero was resurrected, he was also the one who was the happiest.

Corresponding to Jing Ke was Qin Wuyang. Qin Wuyang viewed Yan Dan as having the grace of recognition and the grace of saving his life. He was grateful to Yan Dan and had always believed that Yan Dan's plan to assassinate the King of Qin was correct. At this moment, learning from the Six-Fingered Black Hero that Yan Dan was actually a villain, he fell into silence, unable to speak for a long time.

"What happened later? What happened after that?" After sighing, the Six-Fingered Black Hero asked again.

Jing Ke continued: "After we finished handling your funeral with Mohist rites, Yan Dan proposed the matter of selecting a new Mohist Leader!"

"Finally, after the 'Heaven's Will', most of the leaders chose Yan Dan to serve as the Mohist Leader!"

The Six-Fingered Black Hero evaluated again: "Yan Dan is the Crown Prince of the State of Yan, a noble beyond reproach, yet he became our Mohist Leader. That is truly impressive. Before becoming the Mohist Leader, he must have had quite a lot of contact with many leaders."

Jing Ke was silent.

Indeed, before the 'Heaven's Will', Yan Dan had interacted with many leaders. Before this, he had even been running around constantly for the Six-Fingered Leader's death. Everyone saw his sincere heart, which is why they chose him to serve as the Mohist Leader.

Looking at it now, Yan Dan was good at disguising himself; this might not have been part of his plan.

"After succeeding as the Mohist Leader, Yan Dan proposed a plan in the name of all living beings under heaven and avenging the Leader. He called this plan the Dragon-Slaying Plan!"

"To complete this plan, two conditions needed to be met first. One was a sharp weapon capable of a fatal blow. Thus, he had Master Xu and the Old Lady Xu forge a sword together. In the end, the two used meteorite iron from beyond the heavens as material to forge a sword, but because Yan Dan urged them urgently during the process, the mother and son forged the sword day and night. The Old Lady Xu could not bear the overwork and finally fell and died on the day the sword was completed."

"Did the Old Lady Xu die?" The Six-Fingered Black Hero slowly closed his eyes and opened them again, a trace of pain appearing on his face.
