In the Great Qin Dynasty, I, the Unruly Commander, begin by dual-cultivating with Yan Ling Ji.

Night falls gently, and the moon shines brightly at dawn.

Inside the room, after Yan Lingji fell asleep, Ying Ziqing quietly got up and walked to the window.

The cool moonlight shone through the window onto the floor.

Suddenly, a scarlet Asura mask appeared in Ying Ziqing's hand. He glanced back at Yan Lingji, who was sleeping soundly.

Slowly, he put on the mask. The moment the mask was on, black mist enveloped Ying Ziqing.

A moment later, Ying Ziqing had already put on a black robe and armor, wearing a silver iron hat, with one hand on the horizontal sword Tanlang at his waist, and leaped from the windowsill.

His lithe figure disappeared into the night.

On the bed, Yan Lingji rubbed her sleepy eyes and murmured, "A mysterious man," before...

She wrapped herself in the silk quilt and then went back to sleep...

In the city of Xinzheng,

Inside a restaurant that was closed and shut its doors, the lights were still on, creating a completely different scene.

A dozen masked men in black were writing secret letters from all over South Korea by candlelight, and then compiling them for shipment to Hamyang.

At this moment, Ying Ziqing, wearing a Shura mask, suddenly appeared in the tavern's hall.

Swish-

Dozens of sword-drawing sounds rang out from the shadows. When they saw who it was,

Everyone lowered their guard, sheathed their swords, and simultaneously knelt on one knee in Ying Ziqing's direction.

They shouted in unison, "Greetings, Commander!"

Ying Ziqing was quite satisfied with the vigilance of these rogues, and a hoarse, low voice came from under the mask:

"Get up, everyone. Who is in charge of this branch?"

A young man dressed in black armor and carrying a sword emerged from the shadows.

He took out a flag bearing the two large characters "Xinzheng" from his waist, and bowed, saying:

"Tu Su, a member of the Bad Guys of Xinzheng, greets the Commander."

Ying Ziqing glanced at Tu Su, the person in charge of Xinzheng, and nodded slightly.

Yun Danfeng Qingqing said:

"Indeed, you are about to enter the Innate Realm, Tu Su. I have come here for the matter of military pay. A batch of military pay will be transported out of Xinzheng City soon. It will be divided into two batches, one real and one fake."

"That batch of military pay will indeed be escorted by Ji Wuye's personal guards. I want you all to find out where the pay is hidden, but don't alert him."

"Yes, Commander! Your subordinate will not fail in your mission."

Tu Su knelt on one knee and said solemnly.

Ying Ziqing had complete confidence in the Bad Guys produced by the system. There's a saying...

Products produced by the system must be of high quality.

"Well, after this matter is settled, I will personally help you break through to the next realm. Once you reach the Innate Realm, you will be promoted to Earthly Fiend Captain."

Ying Ziqing patted Tu Su on the shoulder, then vanished like a ghost, his voice echoing throughout the hall.

Upon hearing this, Tu Su's robust body trembled slightly with excitement, and he cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to the air, saying:

"Thank you for your kindness, Commander!"

You must know that it was the Bad Guy Commander who personally helped him break through to the next realm. If he were to do it on his own, it would take him at least two more years to reach the Innate Realm. Moreover, as long as the mission is successful, he will be promoted to Earthly Fiend Captain and will be able to take charge of the Bad Guys' branch around Xinzheng, possessing immense power.

Tu Su stood up, looked at the scoundrels around him, and said in a deep voice:

"I need to know all the intelligence about this military pay escort within three hours."

"Yes!"

In an instant, the intelligence network that the Bad Guys had planted in Xinzheng began to operate at high speed.

…………

On the rooftop, Ying Ziqing stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the city of Xinzheng, which was shrouded in darkness.

Then, with a wave of his hand, two figures, one in black and one in white, suddenly appeared behind Ying Ziqing.

"Black Impermanence Chang Haoling (White Impermanence Chang Xuanling), pay your respects to the Bad Commander."

Ying Ziqing, his expression hidden beneath the mask, remained calm as he stared at the brightly lit Han King's Palace in the distance.

A hoarse voice came from beneath the mask:

"You two go and secretly assist the scoundrels in Xinzheng City to investigate the military pay. After you have found out, wait for my orders to carry out your duties."

"As you command, Commander."

The figures of Black and White Impermanence slowly disappeared into the shadows.

He ordered the Black and White Impermanence to secretly assist the Bad Guys just to add an extra layer of insurance, since the Bad Guys in Xinzheng were currently short-handed, with only a little over a hundred people in the city.

It would be difficult for such a large number of Bad Guys to fight against Ji Wuye's Nightfall and Hundred Birds.

Ying Ziqing couldn't help but shift her attention to the two new fishing opportunities she had been given.

These two fishing opportunities were obtained by Ying Ziqing when he subdued Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu.

Ying Ziqing's consciousness entered the sea of ​​consciousness.

He gave the order to fish to the seven-colored fishing rod.

The chaotic atmosphere completely submerged the fishing line.

A ripple stirred in Ying Ziqing's otherwise calm heart.

"...You have acquired three thousand bad guys, who can be deployed to any location. Their identity information has been implanted."

Ah, just what I needed! Now I have enough power to clear away the night and the birds, and I can begin to carry out my subsequent plans.

"...You have obtained the Ghost Sword Netherworld, which has been stored in the system space."

Hmm? Ying Ziqing didn't expect to get anything from the second cast. She glanced at the Netherworld Sword lying in the system space, which resembled the Han Bafang Sword.

Ying Ziqing said in a low voice, "This sword would be a good choice for Wei Zhuang."

With a thought, he deployed a thousand thugs to towns and cities around Xinzheng, ready to be assembled immediately if needed.

The other two thousand members of the Bad Guys were sent to other countries to build an intelligence network. He wanted to use the Bad Guys to establish a seven-nation intelligence network under his control...

In the Purple Orchid Pavilion,

In the room, flickering with the faint light of candlelight,

Dressed in a black bodysuit, Wei Zhuang coiled on the bed, circulating his internal energy, his surging power constantly challenging the current shackles of the late-stage innate realm.

Suddenly, a tall, dark figure burst through the window.

Wei Zhuang suddenly opened his eyes, grabbed the scarred Shark Tooth Sword beside him, and thrust it at the dark figure.

With a clang, the Shark Tooth Sword was subjected to a force of gravity, and the blade shattered into pieces.

Seeing that things were not going well, Wei Zhuang lightly stepped back a few paces, looking at the mysterious person wearing a scarlet mask with a solemn expression.

Wei Zhuang secretly activated his Guigu internal energy, as if facing a formidable enemy. He hadn't expected that this mysterious person could shatter his Shark Tooth Sword with just his fist. Judging from the power he had just felt, this person was at least a being beyond the late stage of the Innate Realm.

Just as he was about to make the first move, he saw the mysterious man take a black sword from his back and throw it to Wei Zhuang.

Wei Zhuang caught the sword, his eyes still fixed intently on the mysterious man's hand resting on the longsword at his waist.

A hoarse, low voice came from beneath the mask:

"This sword is named Netherworld, and it is yours."

After speaking, his figure suddenly vanished from the spot without a trace.

Wei Zhuang stared in the direction the mysterious man had disappeared, his pupils suddenly contracting. The man's speed was so fast that he couldn't even see him clearly. If the man had intended to harm him, he would probably be dead by now.

At this moment, he realized that the mysterious person must have been entrusted by Ying Ziqing to deliver the sword to him. He hadn't expected that Ying Ziqing's subordinates were so talented. He also needed to hurry up and improve his strength.

He shook his head, turned his gaze to the longsword in his hand, and ran his fingers over the blade, feeling a chilling aura like that of the deepest hell.

"What a fine sword! I never expected that Young Master Ying could find me a sword that is no less impressive than Shark Tooth."

Moreover, Wei Zhuang found this sword quite easy to use. For a swordsman, obtaining a good sword that suits him is more important than meeting a beloved woman.

Wei Zhuang even ignored the Shark Tooth Sword fragments on the ground and entered a meditative state while holding the Netherworld Sword...
