62: Dimensionality reduction attack
“The alchemist Xu Fu? Oh, right, I almost forgot about that old fellow.” Ning Haocheng slapped his head and looked at Chu Mo.
“This guy is the Old Ancestor of the neighboring island nation, Chu Ge, how about we eliminate him while we’re at it?”
Among the crowd.
Xu Fu, who had come with Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng to witness the Immortals, suddenly felt disaster strike.
When did he offend these two living Yama Kings? They wanted to take his life the first time they met?
“Thump!”
Xu Fu knelt down at light speed, kowtowing repeatedly to Ying Zheng, begging for mercy: “Your Majesty, you must not believe these two demonic individuals.
They can neither grant Your Majesty immortality, nor do they wish to kill your humble subject, who can refine Medicinal Pills for Your Majesty to prolong your life.
They clearly intend to harm Your Majesty and seize the Great Qin’s empire.”
Xu Fu continued to kowtow, even breaking his head, but he still did not stop, fearing that Ying Zheng would believe their words and truly have him executed.
Ying Zheng also grew suspicious of Chu Mo and the other at this point, “Immortal, why do you wish to kill Xu Fu?”
“Swish—!”
A silver light cut through the air.
Xu Fu, who was kowtowing, suddenly froze, his head slowly falling to the ground, blood gushing out.
Even Ying Zheng’s clothes were stained with a lot of blood, and the surrounding area was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
The imperial guards suddenly woke up.
Meng Tian even drew his sword, protecting Ying Zheng, and ordered everyone: “Protect Your Majesty.”
“Hmph!”
Upon receiving the order, the Meng Family Army displayed excellent combat professionalism, each drawing their swords, with shield bearers blocking Ying Zheng with their shields, and archers nocking arrows for a volley.
Their coordination was extremely good.
Their methods were incredibly swift.
Truly worthy of being the elite troops of Great Qin.
However, facing Chu Mo and Ning Haocheng, these two unconventional powerhouses, they seemed completely outmatched.
Wind rose, arrows stopped.
The crossbow bolts that were shot were swept up by an invisible strong wind, not even touching the corner of their clothes.
“Charge!”
Meng Tian roared again.
The Meng Family Army rushed forward fearlessly, but were again swept into the sky by a strong wind.
“No, Chu Ge, are you just going to keep spinning them with the magic of love?” Ning Haocheng’s mouth twitched.
“What else?”
Chu Mo looked at Ning Haocheng, “If I don’t use Wind Manipulation, should I use Heavenly Fire Meteor or Ten Thousand Swords Unleashed?”
“Immobilization Spell!” Ning Haocheng said.
“Immobilization Spell? Do you think I’m Monkey King?”
Chu Mo glared at him exasperatedly, opened his hand, summoned the Human Emperor Flag, and took Xu Fu’s Soul, while reminding Ning Haocheng: “We have material.”
“It’s not that serious, is it? It’s just Xu Fu’s Soul.” Although Ning Haocheng’s words were disdainful, his hands were very diligent.
Once the necromancy was cast, Xu Fu’s Physical Body rapidly decayed.
Soon, Xu Fu turned into a skeleton, and he even reattached the head that had been severed.
“Another skeleton soldier! I thought we might get a skeleton mage!”
Xu Fu was transformed into a skeleton soldier by necromancy, and Ning Haocheng was very disappointed by this.
“You’re disappointed? I’m even more disappointed.”
“Killing an Old Ancestor of an island nation, and not getting a large amount of Karma Golden Light…”
Chu Mo shook his head in disappointment, a golden glow flashed in the Human Emperor Flag in his palm, and then slowly faded away.
Ning Haocheng: “…”
Good, good, good! This can also generate Karma!
Got it! From now on, I’ll specifically look for these kinds of targets to kill!
“Little Fu, oh Little Fu! From now on, you’ll follow me, and kill more of your descendants, so we can strive to get a Karma Halo in the future.”
Ning Haocheng stroked the head of the skeleton Little Fu, placing great hopes on him.
Chu Mo’s mouth twitched slightly upon hearing this.
“The West also does this Karma thing?”
“…Uh.” Ning Haocheng choked, patted Little Fu’s head, and corrected himself: “Little Fu, advance towards the Dao of a Holy Light Skeleton!”
Skeleton Little Fu: “…”
He had never received such an outrageous request in his life! If only he could speak, he would definitely argue with this guy.
Beside them, Gao Yao was also startled by the duo’s methods, but since both were on his side, it made him feel very secure.
In contrast, Ying Zheng and the others opposite, having witnessed Chu Mo and Ning Haocheng’s methods, were all stunned.
Soul collection.
Turning the dead into moving skeletons.
This was simply not something a Mortal could do; it was entirely the method of an Immortal.
However, unlike conventional Immortals, their methods were a bit unorthodox.
“Having witnessed our methods, you must clearly understand the disparity between us.”
“If I want to kill you, these people cannot stop me, not even the Heaven of this world can stop me.”
Chu Mo’s voice was calm, but to the ears of the crowd, it sounded like thunder.
The person he wanted to kill, even Heaven couldn’t stop him.
This…
What arrogance!
However, they dared not gamble.
No one could say whether the other party could defeat Heaven.
But, if the other party wanted to deal with them, it would certainly be very simple.
Xu Fu was a clear example.
“Alright! We’ve taken care of this temporarily added objective, now it’s time to talk about our next requirements.”
“There… there’s more?”
Upon hearing that there were more objectives, all the civil and military officials were terrified, fearing that they would be targeted.
Chu Mo paid no mind to their state of mind, simply raised a finger: “Firstly, this friend beside me is our friend. I want him to be the Grand Tutor of Great Qin. Of course, having him as the Grand Tutor of Great Qin will also benefit your Great Qin; at least it won’t perish in the second generation.”
“Great Qin perishes in the second generation…” Ying Zheng’s expression was extremely grim. He had originally thought Great Qin would last for ten thousand generations.
Yet it perished in the second generation.
Although he didn’t know the ultimate fate of Great Qin, he still believed the Immortal before him.
With the other party’s abilities, there was no reason to deceive him.
“Who is it?”
“Great Qin perished at whose hands?”
“Is it Fusu? Did Fusu succeed to the throne and was overthrown by the remnants of the Six States he nurtured?”
His powerful Great Qin could be overthrown; Ying Zheng could only think it was because Fusu was weak and ruined Great Qin.
“Young Master Fusu, though a bit soft, is still not bad…”
Chu Mo hadn’t finished speaking when Ning Haocheng interrupted him: “Chu Ge, you don’t have to be so euphemistic. How is Young Master Fusu just ‘a bit soft’? He’s clearly extremely soft! If I had the support of the Meng Family Army, even at the risk of execution, I would have gone back to see.
“But him? He committed suicide because of a fake imperial decree, leading to the throne falling into Hu Hai’s hands, indirectly ruining the foundation of Great Qin.”
Fusu? Hu Hai!
Ying Zheng’s heart was a mix of emotions.
His most favored Fusu was killed in such a humiliating way.
He was simply useless!
He composed himself and became even more respectful towards Chu Mo and Ning Haocheng.
“Immortal!”
“Dare I ask, who forged the imperial decree?”
Chu Mo said: “Li Si.”
“He is a Legalist, and Fusu advocates Confucianism. Fearing that he would lose power if Fusu succeeded to the throne, he was persuaded by Zhao Gao, who was by Hu Hai’s side, to forge the imperial decree, bestow death upon Fusu, and allow Hu Hai to succeed to the throne.”
Although Gao Yao was the future Zhao Gao, he still spoke these words.
What did the future Zhao Gao have to do with the current Gao Yao?
Besides, he didn’t plan to let Gao Yao become Zhao Gao, so there was no question of harming Gao Yao.
