Chapter 444: Untitled

When Su Fan and Bai Qi and the others returned to Xianyang City, it was already three days later.

Of course, if it weren't for the fact that Bai Qi and the others were in such a poor state, one day likely would have been enough to return to Xianyang City.

The state of the six was not good; everyone was seriously injured, and they had no choice but to recuperate for a day to barely stop the expansion of their internal injuries.

Returning to Xianyang City, they returned to Zhangtai Palace in the first instance to meet Ying Zheng.

Seeing the state of their group, he also had his expression change, but he quickly recovered.

"Ying Kai's branch, I will cultivate them well. I remember that the third uncle has a grandson, currently in the Left Camp Guard. Then promote him to Left Camp Colonel."

Ying Zheng was also somewhat shaken when he learned that one of the four Imperial Clan elders had died. This was the foundation of their Great Qin Imperial Clan.

Over these years, Great Qin's luck had been rising, and talented people had constantly appeared within the clan, but those whose cultivation could reach the Three Flowers realm were just these elders of the uncle generation.

These were old people of one or two hundred, or even two or three hundred years old. They were still fighting on the front line for Great Qin, and this time they even paid the price of their lives. Ying Zheng naturally could not turn a blind eye.

The Left Camp Guard was one of the Feathered Forest Guards in the palace. The Left Camp Colonel was the main official in charge of this branch, with five thousand troops, only below the General of the Household.

And as a member of the Imperial Clan, his chances of competing for General of the Household in the future would be much greater.

One had to know that in Xianyang City, there were no more than six Generals of the Household, each of whom was a powerful existence.

Su Fan, who had held the title of General of the Household of Agriculture before, actually only had a branch of troops, but everyone knew that was just for a while.

He was not a soldier, and this branch of troops could not be permanent.

Even so, his title of General of the Household of Agriculture was much larger than his main position as the Minister of Agriculture.

Of course, it was different now. The Ministry of Agriculture was already ranked among the Nine Ministers, a Nine Ministers department at the forefront of the imperial court.

"This old subject thanks His Majesty on behalf of the third brother."

Ying Qu and Ying Kai were not biological brothers, but they shared the same grandfather. Hearing Ying Zheng's words, he also hurriedly stepped forward to thank him.

Although Ying Kai was dead, he also felt some sadness, but he had lived for several hundred years and had long since looked past life and death.

Almost everyone of his generation had died.

After all, if one's cultivation did not reach the Three Flowers realm, one's lifespan would not be high. Not to mention how many Imperial Clan members had died in battle for Great Qin over these years.

They were the Imperial Clan of Great Qin, but that didn't mean they could only enjoy rights.

In reality, Imperial Clan members who gave their lives for Great Qin were everywhere, and many even died miserably on the battlefield.

Great Qin's rise was not only the merit of successive emperors but also of these Imperial Clan members.

Perhaps there were playboy disciples in the Imperial Clan, but most of the disciples were not bad. After all, the education they received from childhood was to go to the battlefield to earn military merit.

As members of the Great Qin Imperial Clan, they had to lead by example.

Not all Imperial Clan members could obtain titles at birth. Most Imperial Clan members were actually no better than ordinary people, at most not worrying about food and clothing and not starving to death.

If they wanted power, they had to fight for it themselves, take it from the battlefield. Precisely because of this, Great Qin's Imperial Clan appeared even more formidable compared to the other six states.

The Imperial Clan produced more talent. Although they couldn't produce top-tier talents like Shang Yang or Li Mu, ordinary talents were enough.

Some mid-level military officers in the army were considered to be from the Imperial Clan.

No matter what, they were members of the Imperial Clan, and it was simpler for them to be promoted.

This was human nature.

Ying Kai's grandson, promoted to Left Camp Colonel in one go—not to say it was a step to the sky, but it was not easy.

Ying Qu knew that kid; his talent was not bad, and his ability was not bad either. His third brother's education for his descendants was very strict.

Even though that kid was his youngest grandson, he had been brought up by him since childhood without any pampering.

The education of the old Qin people was very simple: stick education.

Now at about thirty years old, being able to become a Left Camp Colonel—as long as he worked hard, perhaps in ten years he could become a Left General of the Household. Then his third brother's lineage would be enough to flourish—not to say for generations, but flourishing for three generations was completely enough.

He was naturally happy for his third brother.

"Old Uncle, you are too serious. The uncle also sacrificed for my Great Qin, and I can only give him some compensation here."

Ying Zheng shook his head. Losing a Three Flowers expert could be considered a small loss for Great Qin.

But he didn't have time to be sentimental, or perhaps he didn't have much sentimentality himself. It wasn't that he was cold-blooded, but he had seen too much.

He sat on the Great Qin throne and saw too many deaths, too many people who died for Great Qin's rise.

He couldn't go and mourn all of this.

"What exactly happened?"

Ying Zheng now most wanted to know how this battle went.

He could naturally feel the injuries of Bai Qi and the others. He understood that the battle must have been extremely intense and cruel; otherwise, Bai Qi and the others would not have become like this.

One had to know that when he gave the Golden Men to Bai Qi and the others, he had also instructed that the Golden Men could be shattered, but they all had to return.

Ying Zheng knew very well that the Golden Men could be forged again. After all, Great Qin had the method to forge Golden Men. Although the conditions and materials for forging were extremely harsh, as long as Great Qin still existed, they had the ability to forge them.

But he didn't want to lose these talents like Bai Qi and the others. Losing one was a huge loss for Great Qin.

He believed that Bai Qi and the others must have followed this. Even so, everyone was seriously injured, and one Imperial Clan member died.

He knew the tragic degree of the battle situation.

Of course, he also wanted to know how many deities were killed, which was also what he was more concerned about.

He had planned this plan for nearly a hundred years. This operation was related to the plan for Great Qin's counterattack against the Divine Court next.

Once this time was not successful, the next plan would inevitably be frustrated. He didn't have much time. If he couldn't destroy the Divine Court or heavily damage the Divine Court in his lifetime.

Among the descendants, he didn't know who had this ability. He had many children, but most were mediocre. Even Fusu, who had the highest acclaim, was only of average talent.

Being able to be a dog guarding the city was already good; as for pioneering, it was impossible.

So he wanted to kill the Divine Court in his lifetime.

"Your Majesty..."

Bai Qi stepped forward and described the entire operation completely and without any difference.

"Good!"

Hearing that this time, no less than ten Three Flowers realm deities of the Divine Court were killed, Ying Zheng was still very happy.

But hearing that the Divine Court's Taiyi Divine Emperor had been reborn, Ying Zheng's expression also became gloomy. ===== CHAPTER 445 =====
