I, living in the Qin Dynasty, never intended to advance.

Qi Fu stood in the crowd, his eyes red and his face distorted. The person buried in the grave was his father. His father had arranged everything for him long ago, so he could stand here and watch his father's funeral. But why...

Why is he still alive? Qi Fu looked at Yang Chong, who was dressed in linen mourning clothes, with hatred and confusion in his eyes.

Why is Yang Chong still alive, but his father is dead? And Jiang Yi and his family, aren't they his father's confidants? Why did they leave so suddenly and not even attend his father's funeral? The more Qi Fu thought about it, the deeper his hatred became, and his expression was almost distorted.

"Qi Fu, what's wrong with you?" Qi Fu's expression fell into the eyes of someone next to him, and the enthusiastic villagers couldn't help but feel a little more concerned.

"It's nothing. Captain Yang was very good to me in the past. When I think of his death at the hands of thieves, I can't control the grief in my heart." Qi Fu took a deep breath and found a relatively reasonable explanation for his behavior.

"Yes, who could have thought that the kind-hearted and charitable Yang Tingzhang would suffer such a misfortune." The man also sighed. Yang Lin had a good reputation around him, but such a "good man" was killed by thieves. Even though those thieves eventually died at the hands of Yang Chong, people were still dead after all.

"Good people don't always get good rewards." Qi Fu said hatefully as he looked at Yang Chong's back.

"Yang Chong has killed those bandits, which can be regarded as revenge for Chief Yang." said the man.

"Yes, revenge." Qi Fu wanted to continue, but in the face of a warning gaze, he could only say this.

"Father, don't worry. I will fulfill your last wish for you." In front of the old grave with a new tombstone, Yang Chong looked at the two words "Yang Lin" on it with a sad expression, but there was only calmness in his eyes.

Yang Lin's favor to him was just a calculated favor, and Yang Chong found it difficult to feel any gratitude towards him. However, the person was dead now, and he had personally sent him off. Besides, there was no point in saying that.

At this moment, the sound of galloping war horses came from afar, and in the flying dust, a team of cavalry appeared at the foot of the hillside.

"Yang Chong, your massacre of imperial officials has been discovered, why don't you surrender?" At the foot of the hillside, more than a hundred cavalrymen were divided into two teams, with bows, crossbows, swords, spears, and halberds pointed at the people on the hillside.

"Is it him?" Yan Lingji stared at the person who was talking at the foot of the mountain, her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled together. During this period of time, considering that Yang Chong had many causes and effects himself, she did not want to cause any more trouble for Yang Chong, so she never mentioned revenge. Now the enemy came to her door himself.

"What a coincidence! I was just about to go look for him, but he showed up here on his own." Yang Chong walked forward and looked down at the battlefield below the hill. He didn't look panicked at all. Instead, he looked quite surprised.

The enemy offered himself up, which saved him a lot of effort.

The villagers on the hillside also saw the aggressive army at this time. After hearing Captain Zhang's scolding, their faces changed drastically. The people should not fight against the officials, let alone the government troops.

Almost subconsciously, they retreated one after another, distancing themselves from Yang Chong and Yan Lingji. They dared to face the bandits together with Yang Chong, but they would never dare to fight against the government troops together with Yang Chong.

Only Qin Ming, Zhang Shiwu and others were struggling, while Qi Fu looked at the scene in front of him, an ecstasy that was hard to conceal already appeared on his face: Kill Yang Chong, Yang Chong must be killed.

Qi Fu had harbored a deep hatred for Yang Chong since he was a child. Now that the Jiang family had left because of Yang Chong and his father had died unclearly, his hatred for Yang Chong had become uncontrollable. However, Yang Chong was too strong and he was no match for him. Now that the government troops were looking for trouble with Yang Chong, he naturally wished for it.

Down the mountain.

"Yang Chong, why don't you surrender?" Captain Zhang looked up at Yang Chong who was standing with his hands behind his back, and Yan Lingji who was standing with Yang Chong, but he did not choose to take action immediately. He didn't care about the lives of several personal soldiers, but he could not hurt Yan Lingji, because Yan Lingji was a treasure worth a million gold to him.

"Should we leave or fight?" Yan Lingji asked Yang Chong.

"Even if he doesn't come, I will go find him, not to mention that he is here now." Yang Chong said.

"Yang Chong, run away quickly. Those down the mountain are the elite soldiers of the army. No matter how good your martial arts are, you can't compete with the army." Qin Ming saw that Yang Chong was eager to try. After some struggle, he chose to remind Yang Chong.

"Thank you, Uncle Qin. Just for what you said, I will never forget you when I become rich in the future." Yang Chong turned around and smiled, and rushed to the hillside. With a wave of his hand, the long sword that was originally standing in front of the tombstone turned into a stream of light and flew towards Yang Chong, and fell steadily into his palm. Facing the armored soldiers, the Taia sword is the best weapon. Moreover, Yang Chong now knows how to use a sword.

"Don't forget, that's my enemy." Yan Lingji followed closely. The person in front of her was their common enemy.

"You're looking for death. Target Yang Chong and shoot." Captain Zhang saw that Yang Chong not only refused to surrender but even dared to resist. He didn't like the arrogance of the knight who used force to circumvent the law. If he hadn't been concerned about not hurting Yan Lingji, the great treasure, he would have ordered a charge.

At once, more than thirty arrows were shot towards Yang Chong with the bowstrings vibrating. Seeing this, Yan Lingji stood in front of Yang Chong and waved her hand. A cloud of fire spread out from under her tent, directly covering the arrows. The wooden arrow shafts and feathers were ignited. Although they did not fall from the air, their power was greatly weakened. The arrows lost their accuracy because the feathers were burned.

Under the weakening of Yan Lingji, Yang Chong swung out with a sword. With the support of his strong internal strength, the Tiger Soul Sword Qi in his hand now bloomed with a power far exceeding Tian Hu's. The red sword energy passed across the sky and cut down all the arrows.

At this time, Yan Lingji had also pressed down on the ground, and raging flames rushed out from under her tent, turning into a fire dragon that swept towards the cavalry. As the flames spread, they directly turned into a sea of ​​fire.

"Retreat." Captain Zhang did not dare to be careless when he saw this. When Yan Lingji was still a child, this fire-controlling technique had caused her a lot of trouble. Now he was also very clear that his personal soldiers must not be separated by the disaster caused by Yan Lingji. Facing the martial arts master, the army could only form a formation to break her.

Moreover, as Yan Lingji lit up the surrounding weeds, there was not only a sea of ​​fire, but also thick smoke. Even if they wanted to charge, they could not find the target. They had no choice but to retreat and keep distance to maximize the cavalry's advantage.

But before Captain Zhang could give the order, he saw a figure flash in front of him, a flash of sword, and the mount under his crotch fell down. Fortunately, he had climbed to his current position step by step by fighting, and his martial arts were not weak. But the moment the mount fell to the ground, he jumped up from the mount and chopped with the sword in his hand. This sword was advanced while retreating, which was unexpected, and it was also from a high position, which was very imposing.

Therefore, Captain Zhang was very satisfied with his sword move.

However, his expression changed the next moment. The sword that was about to move forward was unexpectedly blocked. When the sword's force was blocked, Captain Zhang also saw clearly who was coming. It was Yang Chong. But why did Yang Chong open his mouth? Was he going to surrender?

Suddenly, Captain Zhang felt a splitting headache and a ghostly howling sound came out of Yang Chong's mouth. Not only he felt dizzy, but almost all the cavalrymen fell into dizziness in an instant.

A fight between swords can be fatal in a split second, as is happening right now.

Captain Zhang lost control for just a moment, and the next moment his head flew off, and he was completely exhausted.

"Uncle Qin, remember to report to the police. The murderer is Yang Chong." Yang Chong's laughter came from the foot of the mountain. There were only countless shocked and confused gazes on the mountain and below.

What happened just now?

Chapter 77: The dragon is hidden in the abyss, but its might is already revealed

Yang Chong disappeared, and took Yan Lingji with him, completely disappearing from the sight of the villagers of Xiliu Village. No one knew where Yang Chong had gone. When they heard Yang Chong's name again, they would only think that it was probably someone with the same name, and not the Yang Chong they knew.

In the darkness of night, Qi Fu looked at the village behind him with resentment in his eyes. He wanted to leave here and restore the glory of his ancestors.

"I will take back everything that belongs to me." Qi Fu said to himself firmly.

"Ambitious men are indeed very attractive, but it's a pity that you are not the protagonist." Just as Qi Fu made his great ambition, a cold yet charming voice sounded behind him.

When Qi Fu heard the voice, the hairs all over his body stood on end. Who could it be?

Qi Fu almost instinctively swung his sword behind him, but he only had time to swing half of the sword before he had lost all his strength. A flaming hairpin had already pierced his chest.

Qi Fu looked at the woman in front of him. She was so beautiful, yet so cruel.

"I am not him. Although he speaks cruelly, he always has an innocence that is hard to erase. But I am different. I am a killer and a woman. I will make up for what he has neglected." Yan Lingji said to Qi Fu who looked incredulous.

Yang Chong had reasons not to let herself kill Qi Fu, but Yan Lingji was different. Although Qi Fu posed no threat, Yan Lingji would not allow someone to curse Yang Chong behind his back. The strange thing was the resentful look Qi Fu gave Yang Chong in front of Yang Lin's grave during the day.

"How can I die like this?" Qi Fu looked at the hairpin that was burning with flames on his chest. The red flame was burning his life.

Unfortunately, no one answered Qi Fu's question, as Yan Lingji had already left.

"Are you back?" In Dalong Mountain, Yang Chong looked at the returning Yan Lingji and said.

"I told you, I'll be back soon." Yan Lingji said with a smile.

"Let's go." Yang Chong took Yan Lingji's hand and walked towards the mountains.

"Aren't you curious about what I'm going to do?" Yan Lingji looked at Yang Chong holding her hand, and there was a feeling in her heart that she couldn't even describe. It was good to be direct like this, without excitement or other emotions, only an ordinary but very comfortable feeling.

"Then what did you do?" Yang Chong asked.

"I will go back and kill Qi Fu." Yan Lingji observed Yang Chong's reaction and said

"Just kill him." Yang Chong's reaction was very calm, so calm that it was somewhat beyond Yan Lingji's expectations.

"You don't blame me?" Yan Lingji asked tentatively. After all, Yang Chong had said before that he would not kill Qi Fu. This time she went back to kill Qi Fu, which was considered to be against Yang Chong's wishes.

"How could I be angry with you because of an insignificant person?" Yang Chong explained.

"I think so too." Yan Lingji smiled, and was very pleased with Yang Chong's words, but she still explained: "Qi Fu's eyes are full of resentment when he looks at you. I know you don't care about people like him, but people like him may not be able to accomplish anything, but they are more likely to cause trouble, so it's better to kill him."

"Thank you, Yan Lingji." Yang Chong squeezed Yan Lingji's hand.

"Tsk, no sincerity at all." Yan Lingji rolled her eyes at Yang Chong, as if to make sure that Yang Chong really had no intention of blaming her.

Tian Mi, who was walking in front with a torch, listened to the conversation between Yang Chong and Yan Lingji with her ears perked up. She felt a heavy pressure in her heart. She had a feeling that her plan would not go so smoothly.

Yan Lingji is prettier than me, and she has a deeper relationship with Yang Chong. If I want to seduce Yang Chong, it may not be easy. However, men like beautiful women, not just the prettiest ones. I still have a chance. Tian Mi analyzed the enemy's situation and became more determined.

She not only wants to live, but also wants to live better.

Xinzheng.

"Zhang Wu of Yangdi was killed? Interesting, interesting." In the general's mansion, Ji Wuye listened to the report from his subordinates. An unfathomable smile appeared on his face, which had a unique style in this world.

Yangdi, as the old capital of Han, has always been controlled by Han's confidants. Now that Zhang Wu, the Yangdi commander, is dead, his people have the opportunity to infiltrate. If he can control Yangdi's troops, he can further strengthen his power. So Ji Wuye is in a good mood now.

"General, that fire witch should be a former subordinate of the Crown Prince of Baiyue." The staff beside Ji Wuye suggested.

"Then catch them back. It's better to keep the Baiyue people in good order." Ji Wuye said indifferently.

"And Yang Chong seems to be very complicated." said the aide.

"Kill him! Anyone who dares to kill our army will always pay the price. His head will be my gift to the king." Ji Wuye touched his chin and had made a decision. He was a great general of the Korean State, second only to the emperor and above everyone else in Korea. How could he care about a country boy who had learned impressive martial arts by chance in a small mountain village?

"Yes." The staff responded.

Yang Chong, who was preparing to lie low, knew that his name would definitely appear in Xinzheng, but he did not expect that his name would appear in a special place.

Thousands of miles away in Xianyang, in a palace inlaid with gold and jade, the former Wei Weishang, now Jing Wei, had changed out of her leather armor and silver mask, and was kneeling in front of a middle-aged woman in red in a palace dress.

"You have done a great deed by escorting Yanri back this time. As for the task assigned to you by the Prime Minister, forget it. What kind of beauty trap is this? It's a pity that an old man like him could come up with it. What does he think of us women?" said the woman coldly.

"Queen Mother, my mission is not yet completed." Jingwei replied.

"From now on, your task is to stay by my side. I just happen to be in need of a guard," said the woman.

It turned out that she was the owner of this palace and the mother of the current King of Qin, Queen Mother Zhao Ji.

"Yes." Jingwei responded after a slight hesitation. No matter whether it was an order from the Prime Minister's Mansion or the order from Queen Dowager Zhao at this time, she had no chance to refuse.

"No." At this moment, a shrill howl sounded from the side hall. The resentment, hatred and misery in the howl were simply unimaginable.

Jingwei, who had a keen sense of perception, was startled when she heard the sound. How could there be such a scream in Ganquan Palace? However, Jingwei only hesitated for a moment before reacting. Wasn't the person in the side hall the one who made her give up her mission and escorted Yanri back to Qin?

Thinking of Yanri's miserable condition, Jingwei had a strange feeling. Although she also had the Jingwei Sword, one of the Eight Swords of King Yue, in her hand, but in terms of strength alone, there was still a gap between her and veteran first-class killers like Hei Bai Xuan Jian. Compared with a killer like Yanri who was at the top of the first-class, her strength was even further behind. But Yanri had lost most of her internal strength, and her blood and essence were depleted. For a killer, losing the strength that she was proud of was simply the most miserable thing.

If it were just that, Jingwei wouldn't have felt strange, but the person who caused Yanri to suffer such an end was her former "husband".

Thinking of Yang Chong, Jingwei found it difficult to suppress the strangeness in his heart: he actually had the strength to severely injure Yanri, he hid it too deeply. Moreover, since he was able to severely injure Yanri, does that mean he also had the power to severely injure or even kill me?

As for the fact that Yang Chong was injured by General Bi, Jingwei would not deny Yang Chong's strength because she knew very well that killing people does not necessarily mean the strong killing the weak. A killer can defeat the strong with the weak, just like Yanri and Yang Chong.

Thinking back to the time when they were married, they had been very close, and she herself couldn't remember how many times she had fallen asleep in each other's arms. If Yang Chong had attacked her at that time, would she have ended up like Yan Ri? Or even worse than Yan Ri?

After all, Jingwei was very clear that during those few days, she had completely lost her vigilance several times and was indulgent in a way she had never been before.

Whenever Jingwei recalled the couple's life during those days, he felt a palpitation in his heart.

Thinking of Yang Chong's strange martial arts that could rob others of their skills, Jing Wei found herself feeling lucky to have survived. Did his men show mercy to her? Or was Yang Chong really seduced by her beauty?

Unlike Jingwei's complicated feelings, Zhao Ji's face changed when she heard the screams in the distance. Yanri was a gift from Lu Buwei to her. The original intention of this trip to Wei State was to let Yanri make great contributions and then let him step to the front. It was also because of this that Yanri was able to command the first-class killers of the same level. But who would have thought that the trip to Wei State, which was thought to be a resume-boosting trip, actually caused two first-class killers to fail and even caused another first-class killer to directly defect.

You have to know that Luowang only has nine top-level assassins in total. Now Black and White Sword has defected, Jingwei has failed in his mission, Yanri is seriously injured... It can be said that Luowang's mission in Wei has completely failed. And the reason for all this is just an insignificant person.

Thinking of Yanri's injuries, Queen Dowager Zhao could no longer sit still, as that was the man she was planning to take as her male lover.

"What did you say?" In the side hall, Yanri, dressed in eunuch's uniform, listened to the statement from the imperial physician. His handsome but beardless face had been twisted into a ball. Just now, he heard words from the imperial physician that were like a bolt from the blue.

“Sir, you are now suffering from a lack of energy and blood. I don’t know what you have been through. Not only has your power dissipated by nearly 80%, but even your essence has dissipated by 80% to 90%. I’m afraid you can no longer…” The imperial physician was also quite worried. There was actually a eunuch who was not a eunuch in the Ganquan Palace. He didn’t want to find out this secret because it could be fatal.

"Essence? Qi and blood?" When Yanri heard these two words, his brows twitched and his facial features were completely distorted. These were the qualifications for him to climb onto the Queen Mother's bed, but now?
