Chapter 95 Cutting out the roots
Back in the group, Dian Wei went to report to Ying Chen.
He then gave a brief account of the matter.
When Ying Chen heard that Dian Wei had tamed a demon as a mount, he was slightly surprised, because in his understanding, Dian Wei did not seem to like riding mounts.
Unexpectedly, he would tame a demon and use it as a mount.
"Dian Wei, I never expected you to have tamed a mount. I've noticed you don't seem to be very interested in mounts usually."
Ying Chen voiced his doubts.
Hearing Ying Chen's words, Dian Wei smiled awkwardly and said, "It's just that ordinary horses are too ordinary and cannot showcase my valiant figure! This Silver Moon Bear, on the other hand, perfectly embodies my valor, and its combat strength is not weak either, so I..."
"Hahaha! Then you'd better train this Silver Moon Bear properly, otherwise, its strength won't be able to keep up with yours, and it won't be long before it's eliminated..."
Ying Chen laughed loudly and said.
These native mounts are different from the mounts that come with the legion summoned by Ying Chen. The strength of the summoned mounts increases with the growth of their master's cultivation, but the native mounts do not, and it takes time to cultivate them.
Furthermore, their strength will improve very slowly, since not everyone is a genius; most people are ordinary, and the same goes for demon beasts.
"Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty. I will take it to heart..."
Dian Wei respectfully clasped his hands in greeting.
The bear that had transformed into human form behind him also imitated him, which looked somewhat comical.
Below Ying Chen lay a white tiger with wings, looking at Xiong Man with a pitying gaze.
Xiong Man also noticed him, his eyes filled with anger. If it weren't for this dead tiger, he would still be his king!
It would never have turned out like this. Not only have we lost everything, but we've also become someone else's mount.
Hu Li noticed his gaze, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, and glared at him defiantly.
Xiong Man was hot-tempered to begin with, and when Hu Li provoked him like this, he was about to get angry. But just as he was about to get angry, he remembered where he was.
Startled, he quickly swallowed back his anger and stood obediently in place, not daring to make the slightest move.
Seeing this, Hu Li felt secretly pleased. Xiong Man had bullied Hu Li quite a bit before, relying on his higher cultivation level. Now that he saw Xiong Man get his comeuppance, he couldn't be happier.
Moreover, there will be many more opportunities like this in the future. He is the war pet of the Qin Emperor, while Xiong Man is the mount of a general under Ying Chen.
Since his status was above Xiong Man's, he would see if Xiong Man dared to be disrespectful to him again.
In just a short time, Huli had already begun to imagine the wonderful life ahead.
Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem so hard to accept being Ying Chen's battle pet.
All I can say is that it's really good.
"Okay, as long as you understand..."
Ying Chen smiled and nodded, then said.
"I will retire at the end!"
After handing over the spoils of this trip to Cao Zhengchun, Dian Wei left the imperial carriage with Xiong Man.
After they left, Ying Chen looked at Cao Zhengchun and asked, "How are things in the capital...?"
"Your Majesty, everything is going smoothly in the capital. Lord Xun Yu just sent word that the Wei Prince's and Qi Prince's mansions have been wiped out..."
"Execute them all, regardless of age..."
Cao Zhengchun's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty red light, and his words sent chills down one's spine.
Ying Chen nodded, his face expressionless.
To be honest, he personally didn't want to be ruthless, but the cases from his past life made him deeply aware of the principle that if you don't cut the weeds at the root, they will grow back in the spring.
Therefore, his order was to execute all of Ying Xiao and Ying Huan's family members, including infants and pregnant women.
"Hmm! Well done. Send a message to Xun Yu and the others: during my absence, the capital must not be allowed to descend into chaos. Anyone who dares to rebel will die!"
Ying Chen nodded, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes, and spoke.
"Here!"
Cao Zhengchun said respectfully.
Next, Ying Chen will inspect every territory of the Qin Dynasty until he has inspected all of the Qin territory before returning to the capital.
The purpose of this was to give the new emperor a more detailed understanding of the Qin Dynasty, so as to lay the groundwork for future governance.
To prevent anyone from deceiving the emperor and concealing the truth, the emperor was unaware of the specific situation of the Qin Dynasty.
..................
Emperor Huangfu's reign.
After Xue Mei, Murong Yishuang, and the others returned, Huangfu Sixuan summoned Xue Mei for questioning.
Inside the empty imperial palace.
Only Huangfu Sixuan and Xuemei were present.
Xuemei truthfully reported everything she had seen and heard in Daqin to Huangfu Sixuan.
After hearing this, Huangfu Sixuan fell silent. Although her face remained calm, her heart was in turmoil.
What? The Great Qin Dynasty has experts at the Void Refinement stage, and more than one at that...?
A demonic entity projected itself onto the throne of the Qin emperor, attempting to destroy the Qin dynasty, but the Qin easily thwarted its attack...
These messages greatly shocked Huangfu Sixuan.
Is this the strength a dynasty should have?
Huangfu Dynasty was quite lenient with its own dynasty, but it still knew some necessary intelligence, such as how many powerful people the other side had.
However, this Qin Dynasty exceeded their expectations. According to their records, the strongest person in Qin was only at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, but now Xue Mei told him that there were Void Refinement experts in Qin.
This made her suspicious of the intelligence system of the Huangfu Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, we cannot afford to be complacent about the fact that Great Qin has developed such power right under our noses. According to what I have learned, the reason for such a dramatic change in Great Qin is entirely due to Ying Chen..."
Xuemei bent down and said.
"Ying Chen? The new emperor of Qin?"
Huangfu Sixuan asked in confusion.
Xuemei nodded and said, "That's right!"
After pondering for a moment, Huangfu Sixuan said in a deep voice, "Have the Imperial Observatory focus its investigation on the intelligence of the Qin Dynasty. I suspect that what the Qin Dynasty has shown before is definitely not their full strength..."
"Here!"
Xuemei respectfully responded and was about to leave when Huangfu Sixuan called her back.
"Does Your Majesty have any further questions for this humble general?"
Xuemei asked in confusion.
"You've been to the Qin Dynasty. Based on your observations, did the Qin Dynasty collude with the demon race?"
Huangfu Sixuan asked the question, which was also the question she most wanted to know.
"Based on what I've seen, I haven't found any trace of the demon race, but I can't rule out the possibility that they're extremely well-hidden and have evaded my detection..."
Xuemei pondered for a moment and then spoke.
