"Your Majesty may rest assured, the three of us are confident."

Shang Yang and Bai Qi said nothing more, but their gazes were firm.

Hearing Ying Zheng finally set his mind at ease and instructed,

"In a moment, Master Yin, Prince Zichu, and the others will go ahead first to deal with those two.

Afterwards, Wang Ben and Meng Wu will lead the Hundred-Battle Armor-Piercing Soldiers and the Golden Fire Cavalry to charge in swiftly.

Secure this area; you must capture more prisoners alive.

I need to know the detailed information of this realm."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The great Qin ministers answered in a thunderous chorus.

Just at this moment, the duel between the two Sons of Fortune on the other side finally ended.

The two appeared to have fought with extreme ferocity, but in truth had stopped at the point of contact.

After the heaven and earth primeval force returned to calm and the waves subsided back into the lake,

Broken Sword stood upon the lake, face full of admiration,

"Nameless, your swordsmanship is indeed excellent.

But if you wish to kill the Qin Wang, you still fall short.

I observe your sword art seems to conceal one more move—is that so or not?"

It turned out the black-clad swordsman facing him was also called Nameless.

This Nameless, hearing Broken Sword's question, hesitated for a moment, then nodded,

"Broken Sword! The Qin Wang's tyranny has made all under heaven suffer under Qin for long.

I have practiced swordsmanship bitterly for twenty years and comprehended one move: Ten Steps, One Kill!

Within ten steps, nothing is beyond killing, no one is beyond killing!

As long as either you or Miss Feixue offers yourself, I can complete the great enterprise of assassinating Qin.

For the sake of all the common folk under heaven, I implore Hero Broken Sword to grant my wish!"

Hearing Ying Zheng and the great Qin civil and military officials listened from afar to the two men's conversation and roughly deduced what the two were about.

They had not expected this Nameless, clearly a Son of Fortune, to willingly serve as an assassin!

And all that about the Qin Wang's tyranny and all under heaven suffering under Qin for long.

Hearing this, Hearing Ying Zheng could not help but find it somewhat laughable.

Too lazy to watch the two keep droning on, he gave Prince Zichu a meaningful look.

Prince Zichu naturally understood his own son and immediately flew forward, leaping into that realm.

With Prince Zichu's entry, the two who had been conversing immediately sensed something.

They raised their heads in unison, looking toward the horizon.

They saw a man in a black ceremonial robe, holding a jade seal, descending from the heavens.

"Who goes there?"

Broken Sword was greatly shocked within. Though this scenic spot was no secret realm, it was rarely visited by people.

Seeing Prince Zichu descend through the air with extraordinary bearing, Broken Sword could not help but feel a great premonition of danger and condensed his sword in readiness.

But Nameless, due to his childhood experiences, upon seeing Prince Zichu appear, did not answer and directly thrust his sword upward.

The moment he thrust this sword, it immediately stirred the heaven and earth primeval force, drawing several water dragons from the lake to attack Prince Zichu.

"Good!"

Prince Zichu floated in mid-air, stood firm, gave a cheer, and struck the He Shi Bi in his hand.

The next instant, bursts of Long Yin sounded from thin air.

Countless dragon qi could be seen overflowing from within the He Shi Bi.

Baring fangs and brandishing claws, they completely scattered the water dragons Nameless had raised.

Then, without dissipating, the dragon qi surged toward Nameless.

"Dragon qi? Qin dragon qi? Who are you?"

Broken Sword and Nameless, being of the supreme Mythical Realm and Sons of Fortune, how could they not recognize dragon qi.

Seeing that this dragon qi was somewhat similar to Qin's dragon qi, they felt even more horrified.

Ten Steps, One Kill!

Nameless's aims this time were no small matter; he had prepared for too many years.

The newcomer was not only of extraordinary bearing, but at a glance held no low status.

More critically, he was very likely a person of Qin.

If he were allowed to leave, it would likely leak the scheme just discussed with Broken Sword.

By then, attempting to assassinate Qin again would be immensely difficult.

Therefore, after mistaking Prince Zichu for a person of Qin, Nameless directly unleashed his ultimate killing move.

It was seen that atop the bronze sword body, terrifying black light suddenly flickered.

Within the black light, countless sword gleams were also contained.

Within a radius of ten steps, the great Qin dragon qi was actually beaten into smoke and dispersed.

Then a sword gleam suddenly rose, piercing toward Prince Zichu through the air.

Prince Zichu was greatly astonished upon seeing this; being able to scatter the great Qin dragon qi already proved Nameless's extraordinary strength.

He had not expected Nameless to still have the strength to counterattack at this juncture?

With a word of admiration in his heart, Prince Zichu immediately mobilized dragon qi, layer upon layer blocking this sword gleam.

It was just that this move of Wuming's had been honed bitterly for twenty years, the ultimate killing strike forged for the assassination of Qin.

Though the Great Qin's dragon qi was ferocious, it was continuously broken open by this sword strike after all.

"Do not harm my lord!"

Just as Wuming thought this sword of his was about to pierce through the dragon qi and slay Prince Zichu.

A furious shout rang out, and a character for "dharma" appeared out of thin air, shaking Wuming into a daze of heart and spirit.

Before he could react, boundless blood qi suddenly surged up.

In an instant, this blood qi transformed into a blood wave, which, together with the Great Qin's dragon qi, came rolling toward Wuming.

"Not good! Wuming, I come to aid you."

Although Can Jian had always been unwilling to make enemies of Qin, and especially of Qin Wang.

He could not simply stand by and watch "the people of Qin" slay Wuming.

Therefore, upon seeing Bai Qi and Shang Yang suddenly appear and join Prince Zichu in a pincer attack on Wuming.

He too raised his broken sword, wanting to leap forth to assist Wuming.

"Boy! Your opponent is me!"

But before Can Jian could even move, a black dragon suddenly appeared from the horizon.

Then, under Can Jian's astonished gaze, it came howling down, mingled with countless bolts of thunder and storm winds.

Can Jian still wanted to execute his sword art to counterattack.

But this black dragon gave him no chance whatsoever; in a single exchange, it sent the broken sword flying from Can Jian's hand.

Then this black dragon transformed into a human form, hands forming a dharma seal.

Can Jian immediately fell into a daze of heart and spirit.

Yin Zhong thought he had already taken down Can Jian, and was preparing to drag him off to see Hearing Ying Zheng.

He did not expect the world's primordial force to suddenly surge rapidly, gathering toward Can Jian's body.

"Not good…"

Yin Zhong's heart trembled greatly.

Sure enough, Can Jian — whose meridians had been sealed by Yin Zhong's dharma seal — inexplicably drew upon this primordial force of heaven and earth and broke free of his bonds directly.

Then Can Jian used his hand as a sword, launching a fierce offensive of several dozen strikes.

"What a son of fortune!"

Yin Zhong already understood that Can Jian's escape from the dharma seal's binding was truly due to the fortune of a son of destiny.

Only, Yin Zhong was also one who defied superstition; though his own cultivation was not truly enough to go against the heavens.
