Simultaneous travel: I am a talented person in all the worlds

Chapter 252 The Stubborn and Kind-hearted Commander!

Late at night, in the cellar.

This Guiyi Chamber of Commerce stronghold, located in Daliang City, did not have a dedicated basement because it was not Mo Yu's usual residence during the Qin Dynasty.

Zhao Tuo held up a torch, the orange flames leaping and dispelling some of the darkness, also illuminating the vague human figure covered by a white cloth on the ground in the center.

Qin Shimo Yu bent down and squatted down, reaching out to lift the cold white cloth and carefully gazing at the still relatively 'fresh' specimen.

Although his understanding and insights into martial arts and cultivation are far inferior to those of his two other "selves," he is still far behind.

However! When it comes to how to "take shortcuts" on the path of cultivation, he, who "made his way" to the top-tier Celestial Realm Grandmaster, has all the right to speak! He knows the tricks of the trade all too well!
"This aura...is..."

Qin Shi Moyu narrowed his eyes, and deep within his pupils, four discs could be faintly seen rotating.

What Feng Hou Qi Men gave him was not just some magic.

Those are merely the "techniques" of Qimen Dunjia, their external "applications".

Its true core, the 'Tao' it represents, lies in the insight and analysis of all changes in heaven and earth, nature, and the universe!
It lies in understanding, mastering, and even... manipulating the omnipresent 'qi' and 'qi'!
Everything in the world, regardless of size, form or form, from dust and ants to the human body and the universe, and even the vast and boundless heaven and earth itself, possesses its own unique 'qi'!
At this moment, we can use the ability to observe qi through the Feng Hou Qi Men method.

Qin Shi Moyu sensed from the corpse that, in addition to the faint traces of blood and energy remaining in the body, there was also an extremely faint and obscure aura that was somehow... sublime, ancient, and seemingly not of this world!
The characteristics of this aura are similar to those of the 'deity' he witnessed and vaguely connected with during the coronation ceremony of the King of Han!
"The work of ancient immortals and gods?"

Qin Shi Moyu murmured to himself, his brows furrowing slightly.

Troublesome! Anything that has even the slightest connection to the words 'immortals' or 'gods' often becomes extremely troublesome!

If the strength of this Zhao border cavalry is truly related to this level of power, then let alone mass-producing nearly a thousand elite soldiers at the Inner Strength Realm, he probably wouldn't be too surprised if they could even produce batches of Qi Strength Realm Innate experts!
However, his 'shortcutting' instinct, honed through countless years of skirting the rules, subtly told him that things were probably not so simple.

There must be some crucial factors involved that he hasn't yet noticed, perhaps even...

His inference based on the 'aura of immortals and gods' is wrong! Or at least incomplete!

"Damn it! If only I knew how to use 'Dual-Hand Technique' at a time like this!"

Qin Shi Moyu couldn't help but think of the Eight Extraordinary Skills - Dual-Hand Technique that Zhan Kuang had already obtained.

If he knew that extraordinary skill that could touch upon 'sex and life', he could directly dissect this corpse and dig out all the secrets hidden within its soul and body!

Unfortunately, he didn't understand.

It's not that he can't learn this skill, just like he can't seem to master it.

However, this Eight Extraordinary Skills has prerequisites!
Even a prodigy with unparalleled comprehension like Zhan Kuang had to fuse one of Qu Tong's arms as a 'catalyst' before he could finally master this extraordinary skill.

What merit or ability does Qin Shi Mo Yu possess to skip these prerequisites?

As for having Zhan Kuang cut off one of his arms and send it to him, that's another story.
Putting aside the fact that he might not be able to find a surgeon of limb-repair caliber in this era for such a high-end surgical procedure as limb reattachment.

Why would anyone think that his 'trash little body,' which, despite being enhanced, is still essentially made of flesh and blood, could possibly withstand the terrifying, inhuman arm of the War Maniac?!
They're not even the same model!

Bu Jingyun went crazy trying to refute a Qilin Arm.

It's really hard to say, between the Fire Qilin and the War Berserker... which one is more ferocious?
There's nothing I can do; I'm not able to figure it out on my own for now. I'll have to ask the experts for help.

Qin Shi Moyu casually added the corpse to the chat group, without even trying to hide it from Zhao Tuo, who was already numb.

However... the big shots all seem to be busy.

[War Maniac: I've been home these past few days, and my grandparents are here too, so it's really inconvenient to research that stuff; it wouldn't be appropriate.]

The heroes? The big boss of the heroes is still in the cave behind Wudang Mountain, locked in a fierce battle with the Fire-Worker Monk.

Under extreme pressure, the Nine Yang Divine Skill has been forced to the sixth level!

The more they fought, the more energetic and excited they became, and they couldn't stop anytime soon. Both of them were masters of the Nine Yang Manual, with incredibly long endurance, and now they were just having a contest to see who could outlive the other.

Back in the day, the Five Greats' martial arts tournament at Mount Hua could last for seven days and seven nights.

Given the abnormal recovery ability and combat endurance displayed by the heroes Mo Yu and Huo Gong Toutuo, they could fight for ten days and ten nights without any problems, barring any unforeseen circumstances... They can't be relied upon in the short term.

As for Demon Slayer, that powerful force hasn't fully developed yet; it's still in its infancy.

Qin Shi Moyu wasn't in a hurry about this.

Moreover, he has other ways to investigate this matter.

The next day.

As dawn broke, Gongsun Li had already finished washing and dressing, and thoughtfully prepared a delicious breakfast for Qin Shi Moyu, which she kept warm.

Upon seeing Qin Shimoyu emerge from the room, she immediately brought him a warm breakfast.

This attentive gesture clearly carried a hint of urging. But Qin Shi Moyu didn't pay attention; after quickly filling his stomach, he led her to the General's Mansion.

Standing at the gate adorned with white banners and white cloth.

Qin Shimoyu stopped and turned to look at the somewhat nervous girl beside him, asking:
"Next, I need to see General Li to discuss some matters. Would you like to come in with me and listen in, or go find my junior brother Jing Ke?"

"I"

Gongsun Li hesitated for a moment, biting her lower lip lightly, a hint of hesitation and struggle flashing in her eyes.

After hesitating for a moment, she took a deep breath and said weakly, "I...I'd better go find Senior Brother Jing Ke first."

Because she knew very well that she had no connection with the arrogant and fierce soldiers under Lian Po's command, and that she might even be looked down upon because of the weakness of the State of Wei.

However, the things she could offer as 'bargaining chips' were extremely limited, making it difficult to sway those battle-hardened veterans.

Her initial idea was to find Jing Ke first and use the good connections and relationships he had built up here to at least... at least make contact with those elite cavalry officers and sound them out.

At the very least, we need to secure a chance for these elite cavalrymen to 'help out' once.

As for what price to pay later... she believed that whether it was her grandfather Gongsun Yu or the King of Wei, as long as they could really bring in this life-saving ally, then the Wei Kingdom would spare no expense, even if it meant a huge financial loss, as long as it was within its means!

Qin Shi Moyu nodded, his expression unchanged, and assigned a disciple of Wei Mo to take Gongsun Li to find Jing Ke.

Watching Gongsun Li's complex expression—a mixture of trepidation, anticipation, and gratitude—as she hurriedly followed the departing figure of Wei Mo's disciple, Qin Shi Moyu inwardly berated himself:

"Tsk, troublesome! Sure enough, childhood sweethearts are the hardest to win over! That night in Zhao, why did I have such a momentary lapse of judgment and accidentally rescue that guy Jing Ke as well?"
If he were dead, I might have been able to... cough cough, completely subdue this girl last night! Why would we need to go through all this trouble now?!

I constantly engage in profound self-criticism and harsh self-examination regarding my tendency to make irrational and impulsive decisions at crucial moments!

And he secretly vowed that next time, he would never make such a silly mistake again!
However... how should I put it... perhaps it is precisely this contradictory quality, this 'split personality' attribute—where what he thinks, what he says, and what he ultimately does often have subtle deviations or even diametrically opposed differences—that is the real him.

At least in the eyes of Mo Jiayi, Mo Bingyi (Zhao Tuo), and even his long-unseen wife, Madam Hu, and other 'old folks' who were the first to follow him and witness his journey.

My own president's image has probably always been like this... He's a complete schizophrenic!

The plans they devise are often more insidious and ruthless than the last. The words they utter are often more heartless and cold-blooded than anyone else's.

But when it comes to actually implementing it, there's always an unconscious tendency to remove the more insidious parts of the plan, or to use other relatively 'milder' methods to compensate or replace them.

A seemingly cold and ruthless leader who may actually still harbor a trace of 'naivety' deep down, a stubborn and benevolent leader!
This is the true image he holds in the hearts of his disciples, Han Mo, who know him best.
