Qin Dynasty: Becoming a peerless master through the Golden Light Mantra

Dongjun looked at Han Che, who had stopped, with a wary expression.

She felt deep regret.

I underestimated Han Che.

Although he is young, his strength is unfathomable.

My pride and joy, my cleverness and wit, are no match for him.

Seeing this, Han Che said, "It seems you are also afraid, but as long as you answer my questions honestly from now on, I may consider sparing your life."

After hesitating for a moment, Dongjun asked, "What do you want to know?"

In her opinion, if Han Che only asked some trivial questions, she would have gained something.

Seeing that Dongjun was willing to cooperate with him, Han Che nodded slightly.

Then he asked his first question: "What do you Yin-Yang School want from me?"

"I don't know, this is Lord Donghuang's intention."

Lord Donghuang said that a variable has emerged in Korea that could affect the world's situation, and asked me to bring this variable back to the Yin-Yang School.

After seeing you that night, I knew you were the variable Lord Donghuang spoke of.

Han Che looked suspicious: "Are you so sure that variable is me?"

"My judgment in this area is not flawed."

Dongjun answered with great certainty, a hint of pride showing on his face.

Han Che saw this and asked no further questions.

At the same time, he felt a little proud.

After all, he had been praised.

Then, Han Che began to analyze the Eastern Emperor's thoughts.

"Since your Lord Donghuang wants you to bring me, this variable, back to the Yin Yang School, it seems that your Yin Yang School hopes to keep this variable in your own hands."

Or perhaps it's a hope that the future situation won't change because of me, this variable.

At this point, Han Che's eyes lit up.

He realized a key point.

In the anime, the Yin-Yang School and the Qin State have a close cooperative relationship.

"It seems the Yin-Yang School in Chu has already established contact with Qin. Was it Empress Dowager Huayang of Qin who made the connection?"

After saying that, Han Che felt that his guess made a lot of sense.

The Qin court is currently embroiled in internal strife.

The Chu forces, led by Empress Dowager Huayang and Lord Changping, supported Ying Zheng, the King of Qin.

Although it is an internal power struggle within the imperial court, the imperial court and the martial arts world are inextricably linked.

As for why it wasn't Lord Changping who acted as matchmaker, Lord Changping was on good terms with the Farmers and had nothing to do with the Yin-Yang School.

Hearing Han Che's question, Dong Jun blinked, his eyes filled with confusion.

She didn't quite understand what Han Che was saying.

Han Che sarcastically remarked without any mercy, "It seems you, Dongjun, aren't doing so well in the Yin-Yang School. You don't even know this kind of thing. Could it be that the Moon Goddess is in charge of the contact with the Qin State?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Che felt that he might have guessed correctly.

Moon Goddess is the kind of woman who is very career-oriented.

In comparison, Dongjun is more capable, but she has some mental issues.

The Eastern Emperor of the Yin-Yang School must have realized this as well, which is why he made this allocation.

Dongjun was the second-in-command of the Yin-Yang School, but he was sent by Donghuang to be an undercover agent for Yan Dan, which shows how miserable Dongjun's life was in the Yin-Yang School.

Dongjun lowered his head, looking very dejected: "I don't know."

Upon reflection, she realized that she didn't really know much about what the Yin-Yang School had been doing lately.

She either stays at the Yin-Yang School to study Yin-Yang techniques, or goes out to carry out some tasks assigned to her by Lord Donghuang.

Han Che did not pay attention to Dong Jun's current state.

If the Yin-Yang School were to bet everything on the Qin state at this time, it would not be good news for them.

The Yin-Yang School is a very powerful force.

During this period, each of the various schools of thought had its own strengths.

If you don't have the ability, you won't have a chance to survive in this era.

Like South Korea, although South Korea is currently weak, it still has its own foundation.

After the division of Jin into three states, while Wei and Zhao began to implement reforms and expand their military power, the state of Han was busy developing technology to enrich the country, researching hard technologies such as water conservancy, metal smelting, and agriculture.

Especially in the military industry, South Korea is unparalleled in China.

The military industry that the Qin state was so proud of was obtained after conquering the Han state.

While this gave South Korea access to the most advanced industrial and agricultural system in all of China, it also caused South Korea to miss a great opportunity to strengthen itself.

After destroying the state of Zheng, the state of Han, unable to continue its outward expansion, began to leverage its advantages to engage in trade with other countries.

Merchants from all over the world flocked to South Korea, contributing to the prosperity of Xinzheng.

In summary, although South Korea, located in the Central Plains, has a small territory, it has fertile land and abundant resources. It has no shortage of people, food, money, or powerful weapons; its only problem is its awkward geographical location.

Furthermore, after Shen Buhai's reforms, successive kings of Han focused too much on the Legalist methods.

He not only engaged in so-called imperial power politics and the art of balancing power in the domestic court, but also in diplomacy.

However, the Legalist approach to strategy is a way of maintaining the status quo and cannot help Korea break out of its predicament.

However, even South Korea, with such a history, persisted for over a century before finally succumbing to internal treachery.

Teng, an internal traitor of Qin who had been developing his influence in Han, first surrendered Nanyang, a strategically important location in Han, to Qin. Then, relying on his understanding of Han, he led the Qin army to sweep through Han territory with unstoppable momentum.

After a moment, Han Che gently shook his head to calm the chaotic thoughts in his mind.

He looked at the dejected Dongjun before him, his eyes thoughtful.

If he remembers correctly, the Yin-Yang School is not a monolithic entity.

It seems that Chu Nan Gong disagrees with the current Dong Huang of the Yin Yang School.

Donghuang chose to cooperate with the Qin state, while Chu Nan Gong preferred the Chu state, the stronghold of the Yin-Yang School. After the Chu state was destroyed by the Qin state, he shouted that "Chu will surely destroy Qin."

"I have one more question for you."

Dongjun, regaining his senses, looked up at Han Che.

"You should know Chu Nan Gong, the predecessor of your Yin Yang School, right?"

Dongjun replied, "Chu Nan Gong left the Yin Yang School many years ago, and his whereabouts are currently unknown."

"Tsk!"

Han Che smacked his lips.

Seeing that Han Che was not satisfied, Dong Jun felt a little uneasy.

Since it concerned her own life, she couldn't help but care.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"How much benefit do you think I could get in return if I traded myself for your Lord Donghuang?"

Dongjun breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that I have survived.

Rather than killing himself, Han Che would rather use his own life to gain some benefits for him.

"That depends on how you negotiate with Lord Donghuang."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dongjun's face showed a hint of confusion.

She didn't know how much value she had in Donghuang's eyes.

Based on Han Che's words, she realized that she seemed to have been excluded from the core circle of the Yin Yang School.

She not only did not participate in the core decision-making of the Yin-Yang School, but also spent her time going out to do some errands.

The only thing Donghuang valued about her was probably her talent in Yin-Yang magic.
