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

Han Fei was not surprised by this.

Nightfall is deeply ingrained in South Korea, and Jade Tiger, who is only in charge of financial matters, certainly has limited access to certain people.

However, most people who have contact with Emerald Tiger are core members of Nightfall.

"Then tell me everything you know."

"yes!"

Jade Tiger did not hesitate.

He then began to confess what he knew.

Han Fei and Zhang Liang listened quietly outside the cell.

As Jade Tiger uttered name after name, Han Fei and Zhang Liang's expressions grew increasingly solemn.

In the South Korean military, most of the mid- to high-ranking officers have been won over by them.

As for the remaining small portion, it was in the hands of those nobles and aristocrats.

Just like the five thousand regular troops of Nanyang under Han Che's command.

Those powerful and influential nobles would not easily submit to Ji Wuye, who came from a humble background.

Ji Wuye and his group had not deliberately provoked those nobles who held military power.

Nobles and princes already had many privileges, not to mention they also had troops under their command.

Although the number of noble soldiers was not large, it was precisely because of this small number that the princes and nobles could carefully train these troops.

The disadvantage is that the loyalty of noble soldiers is mostly with the nobles who trained them, and it is difficult for the state to mobilize them.

Outside the prison.

Mo Ya, who had just arrived, was about to use his illusion magic to infiltrate the prison.

Suddenly, Mo Ya felt a strong gust of wind coming from behind him.

The black crow immediately rolled forward.

Then,

Without thinking much, Mo Ya rolled forward.

Immediately afterwards, a golden sword aura grazed Mo Ya's back and struck the ground.

Just then, a cold yet familiar voice rang in Mo Ya's ear.

Mo Ya turned his head and saw Wei Zhuang's familiar figure standing on the rooftop to the side.

Those calm eyes were full of indifference towards him.

"Tsk!"

Mo Ya couldn't help but smack his lips.

He knew he had fallen into Han Fei and Han Che's ambush.

They clearly sensed that they would be coming to kill Emerald Tiger, and therefore deliberately sent people to stake out this place.

Wei Zhuang withdrew the Shark Tooth sword he had swung out.

He looked at Mo Ya and slowly said, "We meet again."

"To be honest, I don't want to see you."

Mo Ya's words were filled with deep helplessness.

Wei Zhuang in front of him was difficult to deal with; he could only slightly outmaneuver him in terms of speed and agility.

If the two of them were to face each other head-on, he wouldn't last more than a few rounds.

Wei Zhuang didn't waste any more words with Mo Ya, as he had already greeted him earlier.

The next moment, he swung his sword at Mo Ya again, and the golden horizontal sword energy flew towards Mo Ya with an overwhelming momentum.

Mo Yabu had no choice but to dodge again.

Upon noticing Mo Ya's movements, Wei Zhuang immediately lunged forward, his Shark Tooth sword poised to strike.

Although Wei Zhuang acted quickly, Mo Ya was not unprepared.

His figure suddenly transformed into a wisp of smoke, which then turned into countless black crows that flew in all directions.

Seeing the illusion created by Mo Ya, Wei Zhuang did not slow down and rushed straight to an open space in front of him, relying on his intuition.

Seeing that his illusion was completely ineffective in front of Wei Zhuang, Mo Ya stopped trying to maintain it.

Once he revealed himself, he threw the several black raven feathers he was holding at Wei Zhuang.

Although raven feathers are very soft, with the enhancement of Mo Ya's internal energy, they can rival sharp weapons such as swords and blades, and are much faster.

Noticing the visible black crow and the approaching crow feathers, Wei Zhuang narrowed his eyes slightly.

Several sword lights flashed rapidly through the air, and the black crow feathers flying towards Wei Zhuang were all cut off by Wei Zhuang and slowly fell to the ground.

Mo Ya immediately seized the opportunity to run away.

In the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared into the alley.

Wei Zhuang paused for a moment, but ultimately decided not to pursue.

This is likely a ploy by the other side to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

His task was simple: to guard the prison and prevent Ji Wuye and his men from killing the Jade Tiger inside.

Moreover, Han Fei and Zhang Liang are currently interrogating Jade Tiger in the prison.

Just after Wei Zhuang repelled Mo Ya, Han Fei and Zhang Liang had finished interrogating Fei Cui Hu.

The two walked out of the prison together.

Although the sun was shining brightly outside, its warmth could not penetrate their hearts.

Wei Zhuang, who had just returned to the rooftop, saw the two of them come out. Noticing that their expressions were not quite right, Wei Zhuang flashed to their side, and at that moment he put the Shark Tooth sword behind his back, maintaining a cool posture of carrying the sword with one hand.

Seeing that Wei Zhuang's Shark Tooth sword remained unsheathed, Han Fei asked, "Brother Wei Zhuang, have you just been in a battle?"

Wei Zhuang replied, "Just now, Ji Wuye sent Mo Ya, the publicly known leader of the Hundred Birds."

Han Fei's expression turned cold: "It seems Ji Wuye has already decided to kill Emerald Tiger to silence him."

Ji Wuye's actions were a major provocation against Korean law.

Moreover, this wasn't the first time Ji Wuye had done something like this.

At this moment, Wei Zhuang spoke up, asking the question that was currently on his mind: "How is the interrogation going?"

Seeing that Han Fei's mind was still on Ji Wuye, Zhang Liang said, "Jade Tiger has already confessed, and we have a lot of information about Nightfall."

Wei Zhuang: "It seems the Jade Tiger no longer needs protection."

Upon hearing Wei Zhuang's words, Han Fei retorted, "Brother Wei Zhuang, although Jade Tiger has confessed, it's better to keep him alive until some things are definitively settled."

Seeing the two men disagreeing, Zhang Liang gave a wry smile.

He was able to understand each of their thoughts.

Wei Zhuang was considering manpower and efficiency.

Most importantly, it was Wei Zhuang himself who contributed.

Han Fei's decision stemmed from a variety of considerations.

He had previously promised to give Emerald Tiger a dignified death.

Moreover, the repeated murders in South Korean prisons are a serious embarrassment.

But precisely because of this, he didn't know how to persuade the two of them.

I'll feel guilty towards either of them.

Just as Zhang Liang was fretting over this, Wei Zhuang took a step back and asked, "How much longer?"

"That depends on the situation in the palace; if things go smoothly, it shouldn't take too long."

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Fei turned his gaze toward the direction of the Xinzheng Royal Palace.

At this time, Wei Liao, whom Han Che had recommended, had already entered the palace.

If Yu Liao can successfully become the Grand Commandant of South Korea, the matter will be resolved quickly.

Upon seeing this, Wei Zhuang immediately understood Han Fei's meaning:

He nodded slightly and replied, "Then I'll wait for your good news."

Seeing that Wei Zhuang had chosen to compromise, Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Han Fei bowed to Wei Zhuang and said, "Brother Wei Zhuang, I will always remember your merits and hard work."
