Chat group: In Daqin, Dongjun brought happiness to us

Sloppy Taoist: "The world is so vast, there are so many wonders!!"

The Heroine's World: "Isn't there a Qilin? Where is the Qilin? How can I kill the Qilin and gain immortality?"

The Strongest Mortal: "The divine beasts of heaven and earth have their own fortunes. If they kill themselves recklessly, even if they can achieve immortality, it will probably not be a blessing!!"

Ying An introduced the immortality of the Fengyun world, but he was not really giving Xiongba any advice.

The dragon turtle and the phoenix, one is in Xiao Sanxiao's family, and the other is obtained by Xu Fu, neither of them is something that Xiongba can covet.

The dragon was so powerful that even Xu Fu didn't dare to kill it without Jingrui, let alone Xiongba.

Only Qilin, with Xiongba's current strength, could really kill Qilin. But unfortunately, Ying An didn't know how to use Qilin to make people immortal.

In the Tianxia Conference, Xiongba was eagerly waiting for Ying An to continue his explanation.

But unfortunately, after Ying An finished talking about the dragon, there was no more movement.

Xiongba waited for a long time but did not get another response from Ying An.

Little did he know that at this moment, Ying An was blocked by twin sisters, one black and one white.

Chapter 27: The Extravagant Hopes of the Black and White Sisters

The only way from Daqin to Han Dynasty, outside Hangu Pass.

The twin sisters, wearing completely different dresses, one black and one white, were waiting helplessly.

"Sister, if we attack Young Master Qin this time, no matter whether we succeed or fail, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive, right?" Shao Siming, dressed in black, had a silent look in his eyes.

"No!" Young Siming in a white dress shook her head and said, "We are just testing Young Master Ying An this time."

"Even if we don't die this time, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for much longer, right?" The black-clothed young Siming lowered his eyes and said, "I've already felt it. When the soul exchanges for breath, the soul will scatter and the life will end!"

The young lady Siming in the white dress fell silent.

After a moment, he mustered up the courage to say, "Then let's run away?"

Young Siming in black was suddenly startled.

"I already know that the next generation of Shao Siming has been chosen from the Five Spirits. We will die at the hands of our successor, just like all the previous Shao Simings! So let's run away!" Shao Siming in white said firmly, "Even if we don't run away, we won't be able to survive for long! In that case, why not give it a try?"

Compared to the courageous Shao Siming in white dress, Shao Siming in black clothes is obviously more timid or has a huge fear of the Yin-Yang family.

"No! We can't escape!!"

"How do you know it won't work if you don't try?" Young Siming in white dress persuaded.

"Sister, instead of running away, why can't we ask others for help?" The black-clothed young Siming hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly: "If... if Young Master An is willing to accept us, maybe... maybe we can avoid death!"

"Young Master An?" The girl in the white dress gave a bitter laugh and said, "We are nothing more than abandoned children of the Yin-Yang family. As the son of the King of Qin, how could Young Master An care about people like us whose lives are as insignificant as grass?"

"Why not give it a try?" The black-clothed young Siming said, "Maybe... maybe Gongzi An will be our only way to survive!"

The two sisters suddenly fell silent at the same time.

In the distance, a caravan, after crossing Hangu Pass, was heading straight towards the two sisters.

"Time is running out, sister, what...what do you think?" asked the young man Siming in black unwillingly.

Her eyes were filled with struggle. After a long moment, as the carriage convoy drew closer, the young lady in the white dress, Siming, finally breathed a sigh of relief and said confidently, "Alright! Let's give it a try! Maybe... maybe Young Master An is really different. He'll really take us in!"

The moment the words fell, the two sisters seemed to be in sync. Their hands formed hand seals at the same time.

Countless lush green leaves appeared out of thin air, instantly lifting up the two sisters and heading straight towards the carriage convoy.

Although Hei Bai Shao Siming has been regarded as an abandoned child by the Yin-Yang family, it is undeniable that even if the two sisters are not the most suitable people for the position of Shao Siming, their strength is still enough to stand at the top of the Qin world.

At the very least, at this moment, the two sisters used the Ten Thousand Leaves Flying Flower Flow and headed straight for the convoy without alarming anyone in the process.

At the moment of approaching Ying'an's carriage.

An alarm bell instantly rang in Hei Bai Shao Siming's heart!

Almost subconsciously, the two sisters separated to the left and right without thinking.

The next moment, a light pink sword energy broke through the carriage and headed straight for the direction the two sisters had just been.

If the two sisters had not had a sudden inspiration and sensed the crisis, they would have been separated by the terrifying sword energy before they approached the carriage.

"Jing Niu sword energy? Luowang's Heavenly Assassin Jing Niu!!" The Black and White sisters said in unison. It took them only a split second to recognize the distinctive pale pink sword energy.

The curtain was lifted, and Jingwei, who was dressed in a long dress in the carriage just now, was now wearing the scale armor that extremely highlighted her graceful figure during battle, and there was also a cold metal mask on her pretty face.

"Leave him alive! I want to know who asked them to ambush me here!" Ying An's voice came faintly from the carriage.

In fact, the moment the black and white sisters approached the carriage, Ying An had already noticed that this pair of sisters were using the Yin-Yang School's secret technique of the Wood Department, the Ten Thousand Leaves Flying Flowers Flow, and he also guessed that they were the modern-day Shao Siming!

It was because he realized the identities of the two sisters that Ying An felt a little strange.

You know, Ying An is now married to Dong Jun. No matter how you look at it, only if he, the prince of Qin, comes out can the Yin-Yang family get the maximum benefit from their efforts.

A few days ago, she married Dongjun, and a few days later, she took advantage of her absence to assassinate him. This was not the behavior of a disciple of the Yin-Yang School.

Jingwei, who was about to launch a fatal attack on the two sisters with his knees bent, paused slightly after hearing the words, and disappeared from the carriage in a flash.

Pink sword energy shot out instantly.

The lush green leaves and the pink sword energy danced around the carriage like a gorgeous dance.

He is indeed worthy of being Luowang's top killer. Even when facing the Yin-Yang family's contemporary Shao Siming alone, Jingwei gained the absolute upper hand in a very short time.

This was what Ying An had just deliberately instructed Jing Niu to show mercy. Otherwise, Jing Niu, who was better at killing than fighting, would have already slain the Black and White Sisters with his sword.

Of course, this is also because Hei Bai Shao Siming placed the last hope of his life on Ying An.

Whether it was the rush to the carriage before, or the battle with Jingwei at this moment, there was not much fighting spirit at all.

Otherwise, even if Jingwei could surely defeat Hei Bai Shao Siming, it would definitely not be as easy as it is now.

The victory gradually tilted towards Jingwei.

The guards in the convoy finally reacted at this moment and quickly gathered towards Ying An!

Li Si was even more hurried, stumbling as he rushed to Ying An's carriage. He bowed towards the carriage and asked loudly, "My lord, are you well?"

"Thank you, Mr. Li Si. Thanks to the guards sent by the Prime Minister, I am safe!"

Li Si, who finally breathed a sigh of relief, after comforting Ying An, flew into a rage and shouted, "Go, take down these two daring assassins!!"

It's no wonder Li Si was so angry. Truthfully, as a smart man, even though he had joined Lü Buwei, in Li Si's heart, he was just using Lü Buwei as a springboard.

He knew very well that although Lü Buwei seemed to have great power in the Qin State, he even suppressed the King of Qin from ruling the country.

But after all, Lu Buwei was old, and his power was not legitimate, so there was no possibility of the Tian family replacing the Qi.

It can be said that in Li Si's eyes, the current prosperity of Prime Minister Lu Buwei is just the last glory before his demise.

In Li Si's heart, the person who was truly worthy of his allegiance and loyalty was King Ying Zheng of Qin.

As the son of Ying Zheng, Li Si could not allow Ying An to be in danger while he was on a diplomatic mission to Korea.

Chapter 28 Cruel Rules

Li Si knew very well that as an outsider, if he wanted to seek wealth and glory in Qin, it was very important to enter the right temple and worship the right god.

But even so, if you really want to climb up from a humble background, you still have to make extremely hard efforts.

Everything he longed for was just something readily available in the eyes of his senior brother Han Fei, but he had to fight for it with his life at stake.

In Li Si's mind, Ying An was the perfect stepping stone to board Ying Zheng's ship during this diplomatic mission to Korea. If Ying An died during this mission, all his dreams would probably be in vain.

This is also the reason why Li Si is so angry at this moment.

Upon hearing this, many Qin guards put on their armor and rushed towards Hei Bai Shao Siming.

"Mr. Li Si, please leave me alive! I want to know who wants to kill me!!"

Ying An's voice came from inside the carriage.

Li Si was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth unwillingly. Although he wanted to cut Hei Bai Shao Siming into pieces, as the deputy envoy of the delegation, he had to obey Ying An's orders.

"Catch him alive!!"

Perhaps it was because these Qin soldiers surrounded him and put great pressure on Hei Bai Shao Siming, or it could be that Jing Ni felt that if he had not captured Hei Bai Shao Siming in time, Ying An would look down on him.

Without waiting for the Qin soldiers to take action, Jing Niu took a risky move. Despite being hit by the Wan Ye Fei Hua Liu of Shao Siming in black, he took the lead and swung his sword. The pink sword energy swept over and instantly severely injured Shao Siming in white dress.

At this moment, even if the young man Siming in black wanted to rescue his sister, it was too late.

The black and white sisters, with their cooperation, were able to compete with Jingwei for a short period of time. However, when Jingwei broke their cooperation in an instant and severely injured Shao Siming in white dress, only Shao Siming in black dress was left.

In less than a breath, the Jingwei sword, which was shining with pink sword energy, was already placed on the neck of Shao Siming in black.

At this time, the surrounding Qin soldiers used long spears and halberds to firmly control the black and white sisters and brought them to Ying An's carriage.

Li Si glanced angrily at the black and white sisters, then turned around and saluted the carriage, saying, "Young Master, they have been captured!"

Just a moment after the voice fell, Ying An, dressed in a dark robe and wearing a traveling crown of the princely level on his head, appeared in front of everyone.

His eyes swept over the scene where the carriage was surrounded so tightly that not even a fly could fly out.

Li Si's mind moved, and he waved his hand, saying, "Scatter out and be alert all around!"

Ying An now had a new respect for Li Si. This man, born in humble circumstances, ultimately rose to become the Prime Minister of the Qin State, only to be tragically executed for his own power-hungry nature. This ability to read people's expressions alone was enough to keep Li Si standing.

With just a casual glance from Ying An, Li Si was able to guess what Ying An was thinking and realized that he didn't want so many people watching when he was interrogating the assassin.

When many soldiers dispersed, only Ying An, Jing Niu, the Black and White Sisters and Li Sishi were left.

Only then did Ying An walk up to the black and white sisters.

"Young Master Siming of the Yin-Yang Clan?" Ying An, having revealed the identities of the Black and White Sisters, asked curiously, "If I remember correctly, there shouldn't be any irreconcilable conflict between me and the Yin-Yang Clan that requires assassination. You attacked the envoys, but when you attacked, you showed no killing intent. Can you tell me what you were planning to do? Was this the Yin-Yang Clan's intention, or did you two act on your own?"

The black and white sisters were surprised. They looked up at Ying An, then looked at each other and exchanged glances.

Young Siming in a white dress lowered her head and said, "Young Siming of the Yin-Yang family, greetings to Master Ying An!"

Ying An nodded lightly, but waited quietly for the sisters' answers.

Li Si, standing by, was rather surprised. Not long ago, the marriage between Ying An and Dong Jun of the Yin-Yang Clan had indeed drawn considerable attention in Xianyang City.

After all, although Ying An was a prince of the Qin Dynasty, he had always been bedridden and had little reputation within the Qin State.

If it weren't for the marriage, many people probably wouldn't even know that there was a second young master in the Xianyang Palace who was about the same age as Fusu.

But no matter what, since Ying An has already married Dong Jun of the Yin Yang Sect, then logically speaking, even if the two sides are not an unbreakable alliance, it is impossible to send someone to assassinate Ying An so quickly, right?

Li Si's gaze first looked at Ying An, and then quickly fell on the black and white sisters.

"Sir, please allow me to report!" The young lady Siming in the white dress mustered up her courage, looked up at Ying An, and said pleadingly, "Sir, please save our lives!"

"Wait a minute!" Ying An waved his hand, interrupting the long speech that the young lady in the white dress, Siming, had clearly prepared. There was an indescribable hint of amusement in his tone: "You two sisters were just about to assassinate me. Now you expect me to save your lives?"

"Young Master, we sisters are here only to test you on the orders of His Excellency Donghuang Taiyi! We have never thought of harming your life!" Young Master Siming in black explained hurriedly.

"Testing me?" Ying An understood in an instant. If he was right, Donghuang Taiyi wanted to verify whether he had truly mastered the Yin-Yang School's secrets, such as Soul-Wandering Dragon, simply by reading the works of the Yin-Yang School's predecessors.

He nodded, indicating that he accepted the explanation given by Black and White Shao Siming. Ying An then said, "Tell me. How do you want me to save your lives?"

The black and white sisters were immediately delighted.

Since Ying An is willing to give them the opportunity to speak, it means that the two of them can really break free from Shao Siming's fate.

"Young Master, do you know about the position of Shao Siming of the Yin-Yang Clan?" Shao Siming in a white dress explained, "Shao Siming is the elder of the Yin-Yang Clan's Wood Department. While seemingly a high-ranking position, it's actually a position that leads one to a dangerous death from the very beginning! This is because the Ten Thousand Leaf Flying Flower Style, practiced by successive Shao Simings, involves exchanging soul for breath. When the soul dissipates, life ends! The greater one's strength, the closer they are to death!"

After a slight pause, the black-clothed Shao Siming continued, "We sisters are not very talented. It takes two people working together to be qualified for the position of Shao Siming. Now, it is time for us sisters to be replaced by newcomers."

Li Si, who was standing by, was surprised when he heard this and said, "Isn't this great? Since you just said that Shao Siming needs to exchange his life for power. Then when the newcomers replace you, you can naturally withdraw."

The black and white sisters laughed bitterly at the same time.

"Sir, you don't know. Every Shao Siming must undergo a test before ascending to the throne. That is to personally kill the predecessor!"

"How can there be such a cruel rule!" Li Si said in disbelief.

"Our sisters' souls are about to separate, and we won't live long. But we don't want to die so miserably. We beg you to save us!" As if they had made an appointment, the black and white sisters bowed deeply to Ying An.

Chapter 29: The Power of Incense and Vows

Before the black and white sisters rushed to the carriage, Ying An had already noticed the problem with the sisters.

He looks like a normal person, but his spirit is so weak that he is like a candle in the wind, which may go out at any time.
