Chapter 96: Jing Ke Assassinates Qin (Part 150) ( monthly tickets plus more!)
Hundred-step flying sword vs. five-step killing blow!
Gai Nie and Jing Ke, they are obviously a pair of friends who cherish each other, but today they have to fight to the death. The sad thing is that there is no grudge between them, even if one of them dies under the sword of the other, there will be no hatred. However, driven by different positions and beliefs, they have to fight.
Gai Nie and Jing Ke were ready to attack. Jing Ke held the dragon-slaying sword, Canhong, and used the Five-Step Killing move for the last time in his life. With the help of Canhong, the sword, endless flames gathered and formed into a fire dragon hovering on Canhong, fighting against Gai Nie's Hundred-Step Flying Sword.
A white sword dragon and a red fire dragon collided violently at the critical moment, like two dragons playing with a pearl, extremely colorful.
Click!
The red and white dragons collided fiercely, making the time in the hall seem to stop at this moment, and almost everyone lost the concept of time. It was unknown how long it took, and when the concept of time was restored, a crisp sound came from the white dragon transformed by Gai Nie's Hundred Steps Flying Sword.
In this plain fight, Gai Nie's sword could not hold out and was broken by the Canhong sword which was made of superior material and from the hand of a famous swordsman.
"Won?"
Below, Qin Wuyang had been pierced by Luowang's killers, Zhen Gang and Duan Shui, with the Zhen Gang Sword and Duan Shui Sword respectively. The two cold-blooded killers put their power into the swords and lifted Qin Wuyang's tall body from the ground. Knowing that his death was approaching, Qin Wuyang's face showed fear, but more of it was unwillingness.
He turned his head at a height of more than a foot above the ground and cast his sights towards the high platform, just in time to catch this scene. At this moment, Qin Wuyang's heart was filled with endless hope, hoping that Jing Ke could kill Gai Nie, and then pursue the victory and kill Qin Wang Zheng, making their names become immortal legends in the mottled history books.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
The cruel reality shattered Qin Wuyang's dying fantasy.
Because, although the Broken Rainbow Sword broke Gai Nie's sword, the Five Steps Absolute Killing failed to break the Hundred Steps Flying Sword. The damaged sword body was infused with Gai Nie's power, which was even better than Jing Ke's, and it shot out like a dense rain of swords. Jing Ke was unable to dodge and his body was pierced by dozens of fragments at the same time.
Wow!
In a moment, Jing Ke's body was covered with wounds, and blood gushed out like free water. The wounds were so severe that even his knees were pierced by the fragments of the sword. Jing Ke's body was shaking, and he had lost the strength to stand. When he was dying, Jing Ke's eyes were wide open, and he cast a mixed and pleading look at Gai Nie.
When he met Jing Ke's gaze, Gai Nie understood. He turned his hand and the sword with a small part of the sword body still remained in Gai Nie's hand. Gai Nie appeared in front of Jing Ke like lightning and ruthlessly pierced Jing Ke's heart with the half-broken sword in his hand.
"Thank you for taking care of Tianming for me!"
Jing Ke, who died under Gai Nie's sword, did not fall backwards, but was held in Gai Nie's arms. With his last breath, Jing Ke leaned close to Gai Nie's ear and said his last words. After he finished speaking, his head fell heavily.
puff!
The next moment after Jing Ke died under Gai Nie's sword, Zhen Gang pulled the Zhen Gang sword out of Qin Wuyang's body like lightning, and slashed Qin Wuyang's neck with the sword, cutting off Qin Wuyang's head.
"Hmph, you don't overestimate your capabilities."
Seeing that the two assassins who had tried to kill him were already dead, Zheng Ge tidied up his somewhat messy clothes. His eyes, which contained endless majesty, showed disdain from the bottom of his heart. He made such an evaluation and winked at Zhao Gao.
Receiving Zheng Ge's gaze, Zhao Gao understood and organized the eunuchs in the palace to clean the bloodstained floor and drag the bodies of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang out. As criminals who assassinated the King of Qin, even if they were dead, their bodies would not have a good end. Clean water was sprinkled on the bloodstains to dilute the sticky blood.
"and many more."
Zheng Ge was looking at the corpses of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang who were about to leave the hall, and suddenly a pair of tearful eyes appeared in front of him. His resilient heart moved, and he shouted to stop them.
"These two are also important people. Pass on my order and bury them properly. I will give them the dignity of burying them in coffins and erecting tombstones!"
"Here."
The eunuchs who dragged away the bodies of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang had already prepared to chop the two bodies into pieces and throw them into a mass grave to become a delicious meal for wild dogs and jackals. Unexpectedly, Zheng Ge gave such an order. After a slight shock, the eunuchs obeyed the order in unison.
[Li Ji, I let Jing Ke be buried in the coffin after his death. I have done my utmost.] With just a few words, he decided the affairs of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang after their death. Zheng Ge sighed deeply in his heart.
"Hahaha."
Sentiment, in the person of a peerless monarch like Zheng Ge, is like a dream bubble, fleeting. As the bodies of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang were dragged away, the civil and military officials of Qin State, who had originally retreated, along with the envoys of the three kingdoms of Wei, Chu and Qi, all returned to their original positions. On Zheng Ge's dragon table, the Du Kang map, which was related to the lifeblood of Yan State, was spread out.
The dragon-slaying sword that Jing Ke used to assassinate Zheng Ge, Canhong, was also placed in front of Zheng Ge. The dragon-slaying sword, forged from fragments of fallen stars, still exuded a murderous aura even after losing its master, as if the dragon-slaying sword had become another kind of life, and could leap up at any time to execute the unfinished mission of its master and kill Zheng Ge.
After staring at the two things silently for a moment, Zheng Ge suddenly burst into laughter, and the rolling laughter echoed in the hall for a long time.
"Yan Dan, I want to thank you for giving me three treasures!"
【Three treasures?】
【What's the meaning? 】
[How did the king know that Yan Dan was the mastermind behind this assassination? ]
……
When Zheng Ge said this, some of the Qin civil and military officials who had just recovered from their shock were stunned and confused by Zheng Ge's words.
[There are indeed three treasures. First, Fan Yuqi's head; second, a map of Yan State's Du Kang; third, a perfect excuse to attack Yan State! ]
When the dust settled, Tianxuan returned to Fusu like an elusive phantom. When he heard Zhengge's seemingly incoherent words, this thought arose in his heart.
"Where is Wang Jian?"
Brother Zheng was not interested in answering questions for a fool. After laughing, his expression became stern, with murderous intent lingering in his brows, and he said decisively.
"The minister is here."
Veteran general Wang Jian remained calm throughout the assassination, as if what was happening before his eyes was not an assassination that concerned the life and death of the King of Qin, but just an insignificant farce. As soon as Zheng Ge finished speaking, Wang Jian, who was at the head of the military generals, stepped out and waited for Zheng Ge's order.
"I order you to lead an army of 100,000 to attack the State of Yan!"
"Here."
Wang Jian bowed his head and accepted the order.
The generals in the hall, such as Xin Sheng, Li Xin, and Wang Ben, all showed genuine excitement on their faces when they heard Zheng Ge's order.
