Zhuge Xie's decision made Qin Shuang a little confused. Such a decision would only make others want to get rid of him quickly. Zhuge Xie was still Zhuge Xie. He could see what Qin Shuang was thinking at a glance. He smiled and said: "Little guy, the enemy will not give you a chance to grow, and of course he will not give you that much growth. Time. Your Qin Shuang's name, Yin Ran, or the ghost clan has already heard of it. Letting Yin Ran leave this time is just to let him bring information to the ghost clan and let the ghost clan know your level of strength."
Qin Shuang is only a top-ranked martial artist. Such strength is nothing in the imperial capital where there are many strong people. It must be the same for the ghost clan. Qin Shuang really doesn't understand. He even said: " Your Majesty the Sword Emperor, if this happens, the other side will only think that we are not strong enough. What can a top-ranking practitioner in the middle realm of martial arts do? Showing weakness to the enemy is something we shouldn’t do!"
Zhuge Xie smiled and said: "Hahaha, yes, being a first-class practitioner of martial arts is certainly nothing, but after the Imperial Capital pays its birthday to the Sword King, you have to return to the underground arena of Sinwu City to practice. When the time comes, your strength will skyrocket. Only in this way can you deter the Ghost Clan, and when you take action, you will be able to make a big splash. Qin Shuang, according to our information, the boy from the Ghost Clan has already reached the martial arts level. He has a third-level strength, if the time comes for you to meet, are you sure you can defeat him?"
"No!"
Qin Shuangtian was shameless and eloquent, and Zhuge Xie could only shake his head with a wry smile, and then said: "So, only by letting the other party know that you are weak, will you have some opportunities to become stronger. After you practice in Sinwu City, you will We need to improve our strength as soon as possible. I will give you three years to reach the upper level of martial arts."
"Three years?" Qin Shuang shook his head and said, "Some people are unable to break through to the upper realm of martial arts in their entire lives. I, Qin Shuang, don't think I really have such a talent. Next I will go underground It’s true to practice in the arena, but reaching the upper realm of martial arts in three years is like a joke!”
"Qin Shuang, if you can't reach the upper level of martial arts in three years, then I can only treat you as a dead person, and you will be no different from a dead person." Zhuge Xie stopped joking with Qin Shuang. , Zhuge Xie became extremely serious and said, "Ji Wuqi, I am a little surprised that you were chosen to be the one to face this. Your character is too lazy, and you are not very interested in becoming stronger through practice. It is precisely because of this that your strength is very average, and you are only a first-class practitioner in the middle realm of martial arts. I really can't wait too long, so I came up with this strategy, and I also want to force you to You force me to become stronger as soon as possible. When you went to the White Sand Dunes to practice hard, I also showed up to see you. At that time, I thought that the Grand Master had made a mistake and chose a weakling like you. existence. However, after you broke through the white sand dunes, practiced in Zuiwu City, and defeated Huo Buting, I have some confidence in you. It is precisely because of this that I dare to let Yin Ran Leave, forcing you to break through to the upper realm of martial arts as soon as possible. Qin Shuang, when you reach the upper realm of martial arts, you will start to control the chess game. At that time, maybe even I will need to cooperate with you, Qin Shuang. "
"What!"
Qin Shuang was shocked. He did not expect Zhuge Xie, the Emperor of Fire Sword, to say such words. Qin Shuang has actually accepted his fate a long time ago. Although I don't know why everyone has such expectations for him, Qin Shuang has to bear everything by himself. Qin Shuang thought for a while and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty the Sword Emperor, I will gradually become stronger. When our ancestor Qin Wuyue was able to fight to the death for the Sword Dynasty, I, Qin Shuang, was deeply moved by it. I will also go there next Facing everything, I will defend the Sword Dynasty with my life. My ancestor Qin Wuyue’s Hanshan Halberd chose me. Perhaps even this halberd still wants to go to the battlefield and defend the Sword Dynasty. Each weapon is With such awareness, how can I, Qin Shuang, dare to lag behind?"
"You finally said something that satisfied me." The seriousness on Zhuge Xie's face dissipated a little, and a smile appeared, and he said, "Qin Shuang, your character is different from that of King Jian Zhuge Zhujian. It's so similar, especially when I knew that you once ran out to travel in order to avoid becoming the proud son of the family, I was almost angry to death. However, I also understand your thoughts. You, like King Jian, both I want to be a carefree person. For you, any kind of power and position is not as good as the scenery or other things you care about. It may even be worse than a jumping insect or a dragging meat. Ants. You are unwilling to fight, thinking that fighting brings bad things, and you are unwilling to suffer. This is indeed wisdom, but it is also something that I cannot agree with. You can see everything clearly, and you have With strong strength, you should actively take action to protect the weak existences. If the Sword Dynasty has internal and external troubles, if you people with strong strength and foresight all hide, what will the Sword Dynasty look like? ?”
Qin Shuang suddenly felt ashamed. Yes, what Zhuge Xie said was true. The reason why Qin Shuang had been escaping was because he was unwilling to bear everything. But if people like Qin Shuang don't take on some things, what will the Sword Dynasty become like? Qin Shuang quickly hugged Zhuge Xie and said, "Your Majesty, Qin Shuang knows he was wrong!"
"Qin Shuang, taking action for these ordinary people is not a struggle for power. As a powerful being, shouldn't it be natural to protect those weak beings?" Zhuge Xie stared at Qin Shuang until Qin Shuang felt a little uncomfortable. When it was natural, Zhuge Xie said, "If you, Qin Shuang, are asked to choose a sword emperor for the Sword Dynasty in the future, will you, Qin Shuang, choose an unrighteous person? For the sake of everyone in the Sword Dynasty, you will also choose a true monarch, right?" !”
Qin Shuang has begun to bear everything from the bottom of his heart. Qin Shuang feels that the responsibilities on his shoulders are getting heavier and heavier. Qin Shuang thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry. After I return to Sinwu City, I will do my best as soon as possible." Reach the upper realm of martial arts. Once Qin Shuang reaches the upper realm of martial arts, he will start to deal with the ghost clan."
"Well, this way, the emperor can feel a little more at ease." The seriousness on Zhuge Xie's face disappeared and turned into a smile, saying, "Qin Shuang, this time you are asked to fight the Storm Sword King because of the Sword Dynasty. You have already seen the internal worries of the Sword Dynasty. In fact, Tianjian Mountain has the intention to interfere in the affairs of the Sword Dynasty. At the beginning, Tianjian Mountain originally wanted to take advantage of Zhuge Wuwu or Zhuge Passing Water, but both of them also saw it clearly. , but he has never been too close to Tianjian Mountain. However, Zhuge Shilan suddenly wanted to get involved. Even though he worshiped Qi Yunxiao, the Wind Spirit Sword Master, he also wanted to control the power of White Sand Dune. , but it was destroyed by you Qin Shuang. Speaking of which, Yu Banli of White Sand Dune should be by your side, right? Qin Shuang, that is a beautiful snake. It is really troublesome for you to bring it with you. ah!"
Qin Shuang had nowhere to hide in front of Zhuge Xie. Qin Shuang had no choice but to say: "When His Highness the Storm Sword King entered the White Sand Dunes, I thought he must have wanted to split up and win over the fused Snake Man Emperor. I happened to be in the White Sand Dunes as well. Shaqiu just brought it out conveniently. After all, the Qin family has business dealings with Baishaqiu, and I don’t want to waste this trade route. I have never done anything for my family. I have opened up a trade route. It must be well protected.”
"Hahaha!" Zhuge Xie was amused by Qin Shuang. After laughing, Zhuge Xie said, "Okay, Qin Shuang, I understand what you are thinking. After all, the Qin family is too weak to be involved in such a fight. Among them, the Qin family is indeed in trouble. After the establishment of the Sword Dynasty, it is inevitable that these meritorious families or powerful races will not be rewarded, and for the snake people and lizard people in the White Sand Dunes, it is really too much. That’s harsh.”
Qin Shuang laughed. Qin Shuang knew a lot from Wen Zui about how the Sword Ancestor Zhuge Yi dealt with those heroes. Qin Shuang said: "Your Majesty, the Sword Dynasty only intended to destroy the snake people and lizard people. That's right. When I entered the White Sand Dunes, I didn't find any traces of the lizard people. I only saw the snake people. For thousands of years, the snake people have been struggling to survive in that extremely hot place. You must know that their blood is cold. , in places like the white sand dunes, they can only build high houses or dig deep caves, so that they can survive! Your Majesty, if the Snake People make meritorious deeds in the future, I hope that Your Majesty can help the Snake People. A piece of land gives them a place to live.”
"Hahaha, Qin Shuang, the Snake King of the Snake People is in your hands now. Then you can do whatever you want!" If you want to deal with the troubles left behind when the Sword Dynasty was established, some races must also do it. After being reactivated, Zhuge Xie said with a smile, "This time you entered the palace to ask for some compensation from me. I blindly handed over the responsibility to you Qin Shuang without giving you any benefits, but I also have some Ashamed. Qin Shuang, the things you got in the underground treasure house were just given to you, and I will not pursue them any further."
Qin Shuang thought Zhuge Xie would give him some good things, but now he became anxious and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't take too much!"
"Okay, you go back to Sinwu City and practice hard!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, Qin Shuang is leaving!"
