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

Ying Ziqing slowly removed the mask from his face, revealing a handsome and indifferent expression.

Zhang Liang could no longer maintain his composure. He never expected that this unfathomable leader of the Bad Guys would be so young.

Ying Ziqing smiled slightly as she looked at the surprised expression on Zhang Liang's face.

He calmly introduced himself: "I am the Bad Commander, and also the Third Prince of Qin, Ying Ziqing."

"What!" Even the usually composed Zhang Liang could no longer contain himself. This elegant young man before him was not only the mysterious and unpredictable Bad Commander, but also the Third Prince of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Even Zhang Liang's sharp mind went blank at this moment.

He never expected that the person who would help the Zhang family was Ying Ziqing, who had previously caused his grandfather to suffer setbacks at every turn. Moreover, judging from his identity as the head of the Bad Guys, his purpose in going to Korea this time was far more than just taking advantage of Korea.

After a long silence, Zhang Liang gave a bitter smile.

"The commander's identity is truly unexpected. I wonder why the commander would reveal his true face to Zifang?"

Ying Ziqing picked up the wine cup, took a sip of the fine wine, and then said calmly:

"As I said, you are someone who has caught my eye and can see my true face."

However, Zhang Liang showed no joy on his face; instead, a sense of heaviness settled in his heart.

"I wonder what choice the commander-in-chief was referring to earlier..." Zhang Liang asked cautiously.

"If you submit to me, I will grant you high-ranking positions, and your family will be granted hereditary titles and honors. Your Zhang family can also maintain its wealth and prosperity." As for the other option, Ying Ziqing did not mention it, but Zhang Liang, being a smart man, could think of it.

Zhang Liang was also caught in a dilemma. If he chose to refuse Ying Ziqing, his Zhang family might face annihilation. Not to mention anything else, just the fact that Ying Ziqing told Ji Wuye that Zhang Kaidi had something on Ji Wuye could cause Ji Wuye and the Zhang family to fight to the death.

Moreover, judging from the power Ying Ziqing has demonstrated, besides this method, he must have other ways to control the Zhang family.

But if he agreed, he would be considered a traitor, which was difficult for Zhang Liang, who valued his integrity, to accept.

Just as Zhang Liang was struggling with this decision,

Ying Ziqing did not try to persuade Zhang Liang with earnest words.

Because it's unnecessary. Even without Zhang Liang, he has the system and the entire network of outlaws; recruiting Zhang Liang is purely a matter of personal choice. If Zhang Liang is appreciative, then he will become Ying Ziqing's top strategist.

If they don't know what's good for them, then just kill them. Although Ying Ziqing didn't care, he couldn't give his future enemies even the slightest chance of survival.

Finally, after a long struggle, Zhang Liang dejectedly lowered his refined head.

He bowed his head and said, "This humble subject, Zhang Liang, pays his respects to the Commander-in-Chief."

Ying Ziqing's chiseled face remained expressionless as he nodded slightly.

"From this day forward, you will stay by my side and serve as my advisor."

Zhang Liang cupped his hands in a respectful gesture, saying, "Zhang Liang understands."

"Okay, go find Zi Nu and ask her to arrange a room for you."

"As ordered."

Zhang Liang rose and respectfully took his leave.

Ying Ziqing looked down at the clear wine in the cup, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said in a voice only he could hear:

"Heaven and earth and all living beings are a game of chess, all living beings are chess pieces, and I alone hold the chessboard."

In fact, Ying Ziqing found Zhang Liang's submission to be entirely expected.

Because Zhang Liang was not alone, he had a clan behind him. Faced with the choice between the country and the clan, he had no choice but to choose the latter. Moreover, in his previous life, Zhang Liang had only switched allegiance to Liu Bang.

At this moment, the system's voice softly rang in Ying Ziqing's ears:

"Because you recruited Zhang Liang, a man of great talent, you are rewarded with four fishing opportunities."

Ying Ziqing's pupils twitched slightly.

I never expected that the benefits of recruiting Zhang Liang would be so great.

Ying Ziqing got up and went back to her room.

As soon as she entered, a fragrant breeze enveloped Ying Ziqing in her arms.

Ying Ziqing chuckled as he looked at Yan Lingji, who was clinging to him like a little bear, and gently lifted her bottom with his hand.

Yan Lingji gently rubbed her cheek against Ying Ziqing's, whispering sweetly in his ear:

"Young master, you're finally done with your work."

"Hmm, why didn't you cultivate properly today?"

Ying Ziqing asked, feigning seriousness.

However, Yan Lingji, who was familiar with Ying Ziqing, stuck out her tongue.

She said coquettishly, "This humble servant has no desire to cultivate; I only wish to stay by your side forever~"

Ying Ziqing was somewhat helpless. Where had the originally aloof and charming Yan Lingji gone? Why was she so clingy now?

However, even though Ying Ziqing thought this way, a satisfied smile still unconsciously appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Having such a beautiful woman by my side while I'm conquering the world seems quite nice...

Yan Lingji was the same. The national hatred of the past was too heavy and too distant for a young woman like her. After meeting Ying Ziqing, the hatred gradually faded. Now, she only wanted to stay by Ying Ziqing's side and find her lost younger brother.

Yan Lingji raised her head and looked at Ying Ziqing, a sly look appearing on her cool and beautiful face.

Ying Ziqing: "..."

An hour later,

Ying Ziqing stopped thinking about it and instead focused her consciousness on the mysterious fishing pond.

This is the foundation upon which he stands in this world.

"System, use all fishing attempts."

As the ancient and vast sounds resounded,

Five colorful fishing rods suddenly appeared.

Countless lights flickered in the pool, followed by the system's voice.

"You have obtained one Fujiya lollipop, which has been stored in the system space."

"You have obtained one of Jiang Chen's wooden dolls, which has been stored in the system space."

"You have obtained the fishing rod of the Bad Guy Commander Yuan Tiangang, which has been stored in the system space."

"You have obtained a game cartridge, which has been automatically destroyed for you."

Ying Ziqing's face was unreadable, because he was numb. The first four times he had fished, he had caught the same kind of fish. He had no hope for the fifth time and was wondering if he was doing something wrong.

However, the next second,

"You have obtained... the Three Thousand Inner Courts of the Heavenly Treasury Star, which can be summoned at any time..."
