Upon hearing this, Qin Shi Huang raised an eyebrow and asked with interest, "What is your opinion?"

Then, this person spoke of the consequences that would fill the world with sorrow and resentment. He said that he believed this was a huge project, so the entire nation should begin to participate in it.

The elderly, the infirm, women, and children did not need to build it, but the young and strong men were the key to building the Great Wall.

After hearing this, Qin Shi Huang thought it was a very good method, so he ordered people to reward him. Then he began to order the arrest of able-bodied men throughout the country, and anyone who dared to resist would be killed without mercy.

The officials below knew perfectly well that this matter would harm the people, but forced by authority, they could only say, "Your Majesty is wise!"

After the summons was issued, public discontent was widespread. Men are especially important in a family, and what would happen to the family if all the men in the family were gone?

The men were unwilling to leave their wives and children, so some resisted, but before they could reach the soldiers, they were stabbed to death by a group of people. Some even lost their wives and children.

Knowing these things, some people no longer dared to resist, fearing that resistance would lead to the separation of their wives and children, and the destruction of their families.

Some people, even if unwilling, had no choice but to obey. Of course, they continued to curse and swear on the way, and were undoubtedly beaten by the soldiers. As long as they had a breath left, that was fine.

Some people are lucky, though. Wealthy families will give money to the soldiers in charge, hoping they will spare their children and find someone else. The soldiers will accept such bribes.

However, the bribes were plentiful, which allowed the soldiers to reap considerable benefits, while those without money could only part ways with tears in their eyes.

Then they began searching house by house, and anyone who dared to hide there was certain to die; no mercy was shown.

Upon arriving at Jing Ke's house, the leader first knocked respectfully on the door, and then the steward opened the door and gestured for everyone to come in.

Jing Ke's son, Jing Tianming, had long prepared everything. Even though his father was unwilling for him to go, he dared not disobey the emperor's order.

So he gave his son a few instructions: don't act impulsively when things happen, minimize your presence as much as possible, and just do your own thing quietly. He'll be back soon.

Jing Tianming was certainly aware of these social customs, but when it came time to leave home, he felt reluctant.

Chapter 987 The Reincarnators Invade Qin Shi

Looking back at his father, he realized that his elderly father was no longer the spirited general he had been years ago.

To him, he was just an old man waiting anxiously for his son to return home. Jing Tianming felt a lump in his throat and strode away.

The troops continued their search, and after a long time, some of them gradually became exhausted. However, no one dared to ask for a rest, for fear of being beaten.

As a result, Jing Tianming and Da Mao from the same village were exhausted and about to fall to the ground when Jing Tianming, who was quick-witted and agile, saw this and reached out to support them.

Da Mao felt weak all over and his vision went black. In the instant he fell, he thought he would have a close encounter with the ground.

But what greeted him was a strong chest. Looking up, he saw it was Jing Tianming, so he weakly said, "Thank you, brother."

Then, leaving Jing Tianming's chest, it continued forward with a limp. Jing Tianming saw that Da Mao had reached his limit and wanted to suggest taking a break, but when he thought of his father's words, he reluctantly gave up.

However, he kept an eye on Da Mao's situation. Da Mao's body couldn't take it anymore, and he gradually fell behind the group, ending up at the very back.

Because he was so slow, the officer behind him couldn't help but give him a push, causing Da Mao to fall to the ground and not get up.

The officers standing nearby, seeing this, assumed that the man was refusing to go and was trying to sneak away.

Without saying a word, the officers started punching and kicking Da Mao. Da Mao was already exhausted, and now, after being beaten so badly by the officers, he fainted.

His actions thoroughly enraged Jing Tianming. To hell with impulsiveness! A living person was being treated inhumanely right in front of him. As a man, he simply couldn't tolerate it any longer.

Before Jing Tianming took action, the group of able-bodied men had also been unable to tolerate the treatment they received from the officials. They had been harboring resentment, and Da Mao's actions ignited a full-blown conflict with the officials.

"Go to hell, you bunch of lackeys of the imperial court! Why do you only bully us common people? We don't owe you anything."

One of the strong men was the first to beat up the officer, knocking a tooth out of his mouth.

"That's right, that's right! I've only just gotten together with my wife, and you guys have forcibly separated us. Who wouldn't be angry!"

...

What followed was a period of chaos, with the able-bodied men and the officials fighting each other. Meanwhile, Jing Tianming was looking for Da Mao, because in such a chaotic place, if anyone accidentally stepped on Da Mao, Da Mao would be finished.

Without saying a word, he rushed into the chaos. Just as he found Da Mao, someone suddenly struck Jing Tianming with a stick. Before he could even see who it was, Jing Tianming passed out.

In the instant he lost consciousness, Jing Tianming thought to himself that he was incredibly lucky to have been beaten even though he hadn't joined the fight.

A long time passed, so long that when Jing Tianming opened his eyes he saw dark, heavy clouds, his nose filled with the smell of blood, and he struggled to get up, only to see a scene before him that he would never forget in his life.

Corpses lay strewn across the ground before him. Most of the able-bodied men had been stabbed in the back or front, some even with a single cut to the neck, their heads severed. Yet, he alone had survived.

Fear exploded in Jing Tianming's mind.

"Thankful" was the only feeling Jing Tianming had.

A raindrop fell on Jing Tianming's face, and gradually the rain grew heavier and heavier until it poured down.

At that moment, Leon happened to witness this scene and communicated with the God System to make Jing Tianming a reincarnator.

Chapter 988 Jing Tianming, the Chosen One

"Is this the guy?" The God System looked at the motionless Jing Tianming with a hint of disdain.

He still really hated seeing such a pathetic situation, even though it was just a small scene, he was so scared that he didn't move.

Leon knew the nature of the God System, but this person truly met the requirements to be a reincarnator. In all these years, this was the first time he had met someone so compatible.

"Yes, I say, Lord God, you must not underestimate this person. His potential is beyond our comprehension."

Hearing Leon say such things, the system said nothing more, but simply floated to Jing Tianming's side and looked at the boy, who was still motionless and expressionless, just like before.

However, the God System keenly sensed the fleeting anger and resentment in Jing Tianming's eyes, which he had concealed well. He was ruthless.

Hmm! This is getting a bit interesting. I didn't expect this person to be so patient. It seems like they're starting to agree to the request.

Hey, are you ruthless? Want revenge?

What was that sound? Jing Tianming mechanically looked up, staring in disbelief at what lay before him, but all he could see were corpses with dismembered heads and blood everywhere.

The God System watched all this and immediately felt that Jing Tianming was a bit, well, stupid. How could he possibly appear in front of this person? The only reason was to let him take revenge.

After a long while, Jing Tianming saw that there was still no one there, and thought that perhaps what he had just heard was just an illusion.

Thinking this, Jing Tianming finally moved his already stiff body and slowly got up, but because it had been too long, he collapsed the moment he stood up.

When Leon saw Jing Tianming fall, he wanted to go over, but a glance from the God System made him stay in place.

The God System is testing Jing Tianming. It seems that the God System is about to agree to let Jing Tianming become a reincarnator.

This way, all the hard work I put into getting the God System to agree wasn't in vain. Fortunately, this Jing Tianming does have great potential, and his background is quite interesting.

"Lord God, how do you feel?"

Leon used telepathy to ask the Supreme God, because he was unsure whether the Supreme God system actually meant that.

The main god glanced at Jing Tianming and couldn't help but shake his head. Leon's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that his previous guess was wrong?

But he clearly saw the approval in the eyes of the God System, so there shouldn't be any mistakes. What on earth is the God System doing? Leon couldn't help but facepalm.

"Take him in, of course we'll take him in. There are so many unknowns about this person. I just glanced at his entire background and discovered some secrets. He's a very interesting person."

Hearing the God System say this, Leon breathed a sigh of relief. He then watched them calmly. It seemed that the main system already knew what was going on. In that case, he didn't need to worry anymore.

Jing Tianming had no idea that there were two other people besides him who were alive.

He stared blankly at the corpses, slowly stood up, bent down gently, lifted the bodies, and slowly moved them to another place to settle them.

The torrential rain washed away the bloodstains on the ground, but a faint, lingering stench remained in the air.

The other two watched as Jing Tianming slowly dragged the body to its final burial. These people had no connection to him, so why were they being so kind to the dead?

Chapter 989 Accepting the Mission: Killing Qin Shi Huang

That's excessive kindness, but reincarnators don't need kindness.

After watching Jing Tianming finish all this, he knelt wearily in front of these people. Although there were many of them he had never met before, they were all the same kind of people before.

"Take care!"

The boy's distinctively clear voice was now hoarse, but the preciousness it contained was still so clear.

After kneeling, Jing Tianming looked up at the sky. Rain kept hitting his body, and it hurt, it really hurt.

But my heart has already become numb, hasn't it?

Jing Tianming smiled bitterly, "It's all because of that incompetent ruler, Qin Shi Huang, that families are torn apart. What an incompetent ruler!"

The God System saw the anger, resentment, and anger in Jing Tianming's eyes. Very good! A reincarnator has finally appeared.

Leon was very satisfied with the potential of this reincarnator; they knew their goals naturally without being told, but unfortunately, they didn't know how to do it.

As expected, the God System has begun to take action.

System bound, soul compatibility 99%, countdown 3.2.1...

Jing Tianming watched in astonishment as the points of light around him gradually grew larger. Then he was plunged into darkness, followed by a vast, white space where there was nothing.

"Where is this place? Where am I?" Jing Tianming muttered to himself in confusion.

"Hello, I am the God System. Because your soul is highly compatible with mine, this system has chosen you to be a reincarnator. Once you complete the task, I will release you from the binding."

A mechanical sound came from afar and then faded away.

System? Reincarnator? Mission?

"What are all these things?!" Jing Tianming couldn't help but complain inwardly. How did something called the Main God System suddenly appear out of nowhere? What the hell is this?!
