Chapter 363: In his twilight years, Bai Qi receives a method to break the deadlock from Su Hang

~7 min read 1,392 words

Looking at Bai Qi’s aged appearance, Su Hang realized that this old man likely also realized his final end.

His visit to the Half-Moon Inn this time was to bid him farewell.

Thinking of this, a sense of compassion stirred in Su Hang’s heart.

Although this old fellow was not particularly likable, he was, after all, a God of War he had once admired, and Su Hang felt a bit reluctant.

Sighing lightly, Su Hang said: "Old General Bai, I can help you!"

Hm?

Bai Qi trembled all over upon hearing this, a look of astonishment appearing on his face: "What do you mean by that, Mr. Su?"

Su Hang said: "I will give you something. At the critical moment, present this item to the King of Qin. I believe the King will discover a way to break the deadlock from it."

"What!"

Bai Qi widened his eyes, looking at Su Hang in disbelief: "What you say... is it true?"

Reversing reincarnation and reshaping life—such means were like mythology, and it concerned the entirety of history, making it even more incredible.

"Why would I lie to you?" Su Hang said calmly. "Since you have come here, you should know what will happen next. Rather than sitting and waiting for death, you might as well struggle to resist. I give you this silk pouch; consider it me repaying you for the journey."

"Many thanks for your great kindness, Mr. Su!"

After hearing this, Bai Qi bowed respectfully to Su Hang: "Bai Qi is deeply grateful!"

Bai Qi left and went to the Qin palace.

This old fellow was clever; knowing his own character and that the King of Qin would certainly not spare him, he simply went to turn himself in.

The royal bloodline of Qin was thin, and now Ying Ji was aged. Even though he still possessed grand plans for the world, his heart was willing but his strength was failing.

As soon as Bai Qi arrived, he brought the matter to light.

The King of Qin was furious and was just about to issue an order when Bai Qi handed the silk pouch to Ying Ji.

Looking at the note inside the pouch, the previously enraged Ying Ji suddenly calmed down.

Just like that, Bai Qi survived.

The price was that Su Hang had to expend a Life-Extending Pill.

It could help Ying Ji extend his life by ten years.

With these ten years, Ying Ji could accomplish many things.

In this battle, Qin won beautifully.

Three days later, Bai Qi resigned from his post and returned to his hometown, spending his remaining years in the mountains.

Before he passed away, Bai Qi left a letter to be delivered to Ying Ji.

Written on it were two lines of poetry, written with great force—

"Manifesto on Quelling Rebellion"

At the start of quelling rebellion, Heaven and Earth are heartless;

At the end of quelling rebellion, Heaven and Earth are unjust;

Loyalty and filial piety are hard to reconcile, and the laws of Heaven do not tolerate it.

Bai Qi originally intended to emulate the story of Liu Bang, to build merit and establish a career to prove his loyalty and filial piety. However, Bai Qi’s actions were not tolerated by the world.

I am helpless, and can only walk away. **CHAPTER 644**

May the King of Qin cherish this well, and not fail the Great Han empire.

Upon receiving Bai Qi’s letter, the King of Qin seemed to age in an instant.

The following month, Ying Ji abdicated.

Ying Ying Yiren ascended the throne.

Looking at the other side, Xu Fengnian was training his Wu Gong frantically. By now, he had already encountered Luoyang and clashed with Han Han Diaosi of the Liyang Dynasty.

The "Human Cat" Han Han Diaosi was at the peak of the Mysterious Profound realm.

He was known for being able to kill those in the Heavenly Phenomenon realm while in the Mysterious Profound realm.

Since obtaining the Great Yellow Pavilion, this was the first time Xu Fengnian had encountered such a difficult opponent.

Every time he swung the Beiliang Saber in his hand, his internal Qi would be drained by a fraction.

This high-intensity consumption exhausted Xu Fengnian. His successive attacks had not even touched Han Han Diaosi, and he was already nearing his limit.

Even if he could hold on, his subordinates could not; one after another, they were sent flying by Han Han Diaosi’s fist force, falling to the ground and screaming incessantly. **CHAPTER 645**

"Hahaha, brat, do you still recognize your grandfather?"

Han Han Diaosi laughed loudly: "Back then your father despised imperial power, now you, little beast, die by my hands!"

"A eunuch, stop being so rampant!" Xu Fengnian cursed loudly, his wrist flicking as his long saber traced an arc, slashing fiercely at Han Han Diaosi.

Han Han Diaosi seemed to have anticipated this; he dodged to the side with ease, then closed in and slammed a fist into Xu Fengnian’s chest.

Bang!

Xu Fengnian was sent flying by the immense force, vomiting blood, and landed five zhang away, struggling twice but unable to get up.

"Hmph, like an ant, daring to be arrogant in front of your grandfather. Do you think you are Chen Chen Zhibao? You are a mantis trying to stop a chariot, seeking death!" Han Han Diaosi’s face was ferocious. He flicked his toe, and the iron hammer on the ground flew into the air.

Han Han Diaosi reached out, grabbed the iron hammer, and then exerted force.

Whoosh~~

The iron hammer turned into a streak of light, rushing toward Xu Fengnian’s chest with lightning speed.

Puchi~

Blood sprayed, a bloody hole exploded in Xu Fengnian’s chest, and he withered away.

Han Han Diaosi stepped forward, landing beside Xu Fengnian, looking down at him from above with a cruel, ferocious grin: "You want to defeat Wang Wang Xianzhi like this? Hehe, even if your father came today, he couldn't save you."

Having said that, he raised the iron hammer, intending to deliver another blow.

"Stop!"

Xu Fengnian looked at Han Han Diaosi, his eyes bloodshot, gripping the Beiliang Saber in his hand.

Han Han Diaosi frowned and scolded coldly: "What? You want to beg for mercy? It’s too late. Today, let your grandfather send you to the underworld!"

"I want you to die!"

Xu Fengnian roared through gritted teeth, raising the Beiliang Saber and slashing toward Han Han Diaosi.

Han Han Diaosi’s pupils dilated, panic appearing on his face as he hurriedly raised the iron hammer to block.

Ding~

The iron hammer collided with the iron hammer, sparks flying, followed by a crisp sound. The iron hammer in Han Han Diaosi’s hand snapped, and the Beiliang Saber in Xu Fengnian’s hand, its momentum undiminished, fell straight down.

Clang!

The harsh sound of metal clashing echoed in the courtyard. Han Han Diaosi’s clothes were torn, and his skin was cut with several wounds, blood seeping out.

This guy’s strength was far greater than Xu Fengnian’s.

However, this was only the beginning.

Xu Fengnian fought more bravely as the battle progressed, the Beiliang Saber in his hand pouring down like raindrops. Han Han Diaosi was exhausted from parrying, and his body gradually became covered in dense wounds.

Just then, the sound of hoofbeats approached from afar, and hundreds of elite cavalry charged into the courtyard, shielding Xu Fengnian behind them. The leader was none other than Qi Qi Dangguo.

"Subordinate Qi Qi Dangguo pays respects to the Young Master!" Qi Qi Dangguo dismounted and knelt on the ground.

Seeing this, Xu Fengnian was stunned.

Afterward, his hanging heart finally settled a little.

"Rise!" Xu Fengnian waved his hand, looked at Qi Qi Dangguo, and asked: "Brother Qi, why are you here?"

"Hearing that the Young Master was trapped, Qi Qi Dangguo has come to rescue you!"

As he spoke, Qi Qi Dangguo stood up, his aura locking onto Han Han Diaosi before him.

Han Han Diaosi’s eyes narrowed: "Such strong cultivation!"

He could not see through Qi Qi Dangguo’s background, but he was certain that he was definitely not weaker than him, and perhaps even more formidable.

"Hmph, wanting to play the hero?" Han Han Diaosi mocked: "You probably forgot that your Young Master is now a prisoner. What do you have to fight me with?" **CHAPTER 646**
