The thirst for power erupted from the depths of his heart at this moment.

Very well, Jing Tianming, keep going like this. With your thirst for power, no one will be your match.

"Have you gone mad enough, Leon?" the God System snapped.

Leon had a big smile on his face, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"Alright, alright, I just wanted to test his limits. I didn't expect him to give up after such a short time. How boring."

"Leon!" The God System didn't quite agree.

"Alright, alright, let's upgrade him to a higher level now. I think he needs it now."

What a madman! I've never seen Leon like this before. It seems he really values ​​Jing Tianming!

[Ding! Mission issued: Defeat Xiang Yu and reclaim your dignity. Reward: 10 Energy, plus an increased reward tier.]

【Yes】

Next, Jing Tianming felt an unprecedented excitement, power, strength, and thirst.

Xiang Yu saw his subordinate Jing Tianming trembling incessantly and assumed he was afraid of his strength, so he was about to say something sarcastic.

gap!

Just then, Jing Tianming suddenly turned around and kicked Xiang Yu, sending him crashing to the ground. As Xiang Yu fell, Jing Tianming took the opportunity to untie the ropes binding him.

Then, without giving Xiang Yu a chance to catch his breath, Jing Tianming lifted him up and threw him over his shoulder.

This immediately rendered Xiang Yu unable to move, and Xiang Yu felt as if his whole body was falling apart. In this round, Jing Tianming turned defeat into victory.

Meanwhile, Qin Shi Huang learned that his soldiers had suffered heavy casualties in a certain place, and according to the survivors, they seemed to have seen General Jing Ke.

Jing Ke?!

Qin Shi Huang had not heard this person's name for a long time, and for many years he had been trying to kill Jing Ke's son, Jing Tianming.

However, the hundreds of cavalrymen he had sent out had disappeared without a trace within a single day, and according to scouts, no one in the area where they were located had survived.

"what?"

Enraged, Qin Shi Huang slammed the water cup in his hand to the ground, causing everyone to lower their heads in fear.

The fear was that if Qin Shi Huang became displeased, everyone involved would suffer.

Qin Shi Huang rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. A palace maid saw this and immediately came to take care of him. However, the maid never expected that Qin Shi Huang would take his anger out on her.

That's right, the palace maid died, and it's said that her death was quite gruesome.

Gradually, Qin Shi Huang's thoughts drifted back to the past, to the time when he arrested Jing Ke's family because Jing Ke's strength was too great, and because Qin Shi Huang was a suspicious person who could not tolerate anyone having a reputation above his own.

So, to put his mind at ease, Qin Shi Huang arbitrarily put a pot of excrement on Jing Ke's head, hoping to kill him and thus eliminate any threat to himself.

Jing Ke knew that the emperor feared his reputation and power, so he was always on high alert.

Furthermore, the emperor's subtle, triumphant gaze when his son was born made Jing Ke even more alarmed.

He had a premonition that if his son were to be born, the son would become a handle against him, and if the emperor were to use him, that would be disastrous.

Chapter 999 The Domineering Aura of the First Emperor of All Time

He wasn't actually afraid of being executed by the emperor, but his son couldn't be. So, with the help of his wife, they decided to send him away the moment she gave birth to their son.

The whole process was shrouded in mystery. No one knew that Jing Ke had sent away his own son. All that was known was that his wife suffered a massive hemorrhage during childbirth, which caused the fetus to die in the womb, and his wife also lost her life.

For a time, the general's mansion was covered with white slips of paper, which shocked Qin Shi Huang.

He had previously seen the general's wife looking radiant, but how could she have fallen ill and died from massive bleeding in just a few days? Could it be that Jing Ke had seen something?

So Qin Shi Huang used the pretext of comforting Jing Ke to test him. When he met Jing Ke, Qin Shi Huang began to believe that Jing Ke's wife was really dead.

The person before him looked haggard, perhaps having rushed here, as his hair was disheveled. When Jing Ke looked up, his eyes were bloodshot.

After a brief exchange with Jing Ke, Qin Shi Huang let him go, but his doubts remained. He felt there must be something about this matter that he didn't know.

So they sent secret agents to observe Jing Ke's every move, and even his servants were to be carefully watched.

Over the next few days, Jing Ke did not exhibit any unusual behavior.

On the contrary, when people learned of the accident at Jing Ke's home, they all expressed their condolences. This worsened Qin Shi Huang's already displeased mood, and it seemed that he would speed up his efforts to kill Jing Ke.

Then he began to order people to put Jing Ke's clothes in his room. Later, in the court, someone remonstrated with Jing Ke, saying that he had secretly hidden the emperor's clothes in his room, which was an attempt to seize power.

Upon hearing this, the people in the court did not believe it. They probably knew best what kind of person Jing Ke was.

How could he possibly plot to usurp the throne? Looking at Qin Shi Huang's smug eyes, everyone knew that Qin Shi Huang was probably about to deal with Jing Ke.

Qin Shi Huang feigned great surprise, then said that Jing Ke would never betray him.

Jing Ke had anticipated that Qin Shi Huang would take action, but she hadn't expected him to be so swift. She hadn't even had a chance to see her own son. She was so sorry!

At that time, Li Zhan did not believe it either, and wanted to stand up and speak for Jing Ke, but Jing Ke stopped him and signaled to him with his eyes that he should not get involved in this matter.

It turns out that Li Zhan had discussed this with Jing Ke beforehand. Li Zhan was so smart, how could he not see Qin Shi Huang's unusual behavior these past few days? So he discussed with Jing Ke what to do.

But Jing Ke only said one sentence: "Since we're here, let's make the best of it."

Back then, Jing Ke was desperate and had no other options, and he also had a son, a secret he kept hidden from everyone.

They didn't tell Li Zhan, but now the soldiers have found Qin Shi Huang's clothes in a hidden place in his house.

Unable to defend herself, Jing Ke thought, "His Majesty truly intends to kill me this time."

Before Qin Shi Huang could even speak, he shouted, "Your Majesty, I am innocent! I am willing to offer this as an apology to prove my innocence!"

Then Jing Ke came up to Li Zhan and gave him a wink.

Li Zhan knew what he wanted to do in an instant, but Jing Ke pretended not to see the pleading in his eyes.

Qin Shi Huang deliberately grabbed Li Zhan's sword and stabbed himself in the abdomen. This detail did not catch his attention at the time, but now, looking back, he suddenly realized that Li Zhan and Jing Ke were in cahoots.

Chapter 1000: Sex and Pounding

On the other hand, Jing Tianming couldn't forget that graceful figure. Ever since that brief encounter, he had been unable to let go of his feelings.

"I wish I could always be by her side. That way, I could watch over her all the time. I wouldn't have to worry about her being in danger or falling for other men."

Jing Tianming muttered to himself, while Dong Guozhi found Jing Tianming and kept talking about how good-looking and refreshingly elegant the person he liked was.

If I ever meet that girl again, I will definitely tell her that I like her.

Hearing this, Jing Tianming smiled helplessly. The two of them could be considered brothers in misfortune. It seemed that they were both troubled by love. However, he was right about one thing.

If I were to see that girl again, I would tell her that I am in love with her.

"Tell me, what's wrong with us? Why doesn't she like me? No, maybe she does like me, but she's just too shy to say it. Don't you think so, Tianming?"

Seeing the hope in Dong Guozhi's eyes, Jing Tianming couldn't bring himself to say anything hurtful, since they had already fallen in love first.

As the ancients wisely said, whoever falls in love first will be the first to fail in love.

Clearly, those two were the first to lose.

"That's hard to say, but when I see her again, I think I won't confess my feelings."

Jing Tianming looked into the distance, his eyes filled with tenderness that could drown a person, making them unable to extricate themselves.

But Dong Guozhi didn't understand why he couldn't express his feelings when he saw the person he liked. What if the other person liked him too? Wouldn't that mean he would miss his chance?

"That's not right of you. No matter what, just because you like someone doesn't mean they don't like you, right?"

"Yes, but what if she doesn't like you? You confess your feelings to her, but she doesn't even like you. Then you won't even have a chance to stay by her side. I don't want to miss out."

That's true, it's half and half. You can't always predict feelings.

"Yes, I haven't asked you yet, which girl have you taken a fancy to? I hope she's not blind enough to have her eye on you. But I don't think there's such a girl in this world," Jing Tianming teased.

Dong Guozhi originally intended to be sarcastic, but he couldn't help but think of her.

Then, Jing Tianming saw the most terrifying scene he had ever witnessed – Dong Guozhi was shy.

Holy crap! What's wrong with this guy? How come this usually carefree person is suddenly more shy than those women?

"Hey, are you alright?"

Jing Tianming nudged Dong Guozhi in alarm, wanting to know what was wrong with him.

Just as Dong Guozhi was imagining his wedding with that person and was about to kiss him, he saw Jing Tianming in front of him.

"Depend on!"

Dong Guozhi shoved Jing Tianming hard, and Jing Tianming fell to the ground, which really hurt!

"What's wrong with you! Why are you doing this for no reason!" Jing Tianming was a little angry.

When Dong Guozhi realized what was happening, he saw Jing Tianming clutching his buttocks and cursing at him. He quickly helped Jing Tianming up.

While helping him up, he kept saying sorry, so sorry.

Jing Tianming didn't want to argue with him, so he simply waved his hand to indicate that he was fine and there was no need to worry.
