The endless raindrops wove a dense, impenetrable net.
Rain pounded against the dark, narrow alleyway, against the black garbage bags, against the green trash cans, and against... two men standing opposite each other.
One of the men was named Ji Li.
He held a knife in his hand, a vow he had sworn never to hold one again. But in the end, he did, just as he had sworn to kill only the heart, not the body, yet ultimately killed someone.
"Vows exist in this world only to await the moment they are broken; the process in between is both intoxicating and agonizing."
The man standing opposite him chuckled softly and assumed a fighting stance.
"Come, you from the future, let me see what you're capable of."
"I, Ye Jiaofang, have learned my lesson!"
Part 11, Heroes of the Past and Present (Part 1), The End.
Ying Qin Guan gritted his teeth and put down the book.
"Zhao Yunxian! You interrupted my chapter!!"
Such angry voices resounded all over the world.
The eleventh book, or rather the eleventh volume, of the Journey of the Nameless Swordsman of Southern Qin has finally reached its climax. Feng Ruo has lost an arm, Ji Li has broken his vows, and heroes from all over the world have been resurrected. A great battle is about to unfold, and if nothing unexpected happens, it will be the biggest climax of the entire book.
—As a result, Ye Jiao made that statement, and it took several months to learn from him. Zhao Yunxian's updates were like squeezing water from a sponge. At first, a lot of water came out easily, but the water became less and less as time went on.
However, judging from the plot of the book, it is foreseeable that after Ye Jiaofang, there will definitely be a battle with the God of War. Many people speculate that Zhao Yunxian will use the battle between the God of War and Ji Li as the final battle. After all, she... has run out of plot points to fill; if she continues writing, she can only resort to parallel world travel to the future.
This battle, as the final battle, is indeed very fitting.
The God of War and Ji Li, or rather, the God of War and the nameless swordsman of Southern Qin, are very similar.
These two are among the few people in world history who are "without a stain on their record".
Who is the God of War? He led humanity to wipe out the alien races and repel the demonic beasts; he has absolutely no flaws. Unless you are from an alien race, then there's no question—to alien races, the God of War is practically the greatest villain of all time.
The God of War is irreplaceable. Don't say that even without the God of War, humanity can still develop technology and become the master of this world sooner or later. The intelligence of the alien races is no lower than that of humans, and they also have various racial talents. Without the God of War, humanity might have already become a reproductive tool for the alien races.
So, why is the nameless swordsman of Southern Qin comparable to the God of War?
This brings us to the Black Dragon Empire.
What kind of country is the Black Dragon Empire? To briefly reiterate what they have done: massacres, human experiments, and brainwashing.
And this is a country that once had the opportunity to rule the world.
This is by no means an exaggeration. If the Black Dragon Empire truly inherits the legacy of the Southern Qin, their growth rate will expand endlessly. At that point, even the apocalypse might not be very effective. After all, the apocalypse can only be used a few times at most, and each time it can only destroy one city at most.
As a result, the nameless swordsman from Southern Qin suddenly appeared, seemingly by divine intervention, and wiped out the entire 1,500-strong Jue Tian Army, completely disrupting the Black Dragon Empire's plans. The Black Dragon Empire suffered a crushing defeat and could only defend its capital. Even so, the World Alliance forces were unable to break through after a prolonged siege and had no choice but to resort to using Doomsday.
If the world had a Nobel Peace Prize, probably no one could compete with the nameless swordsman of Southern Qin for it for at least a century.
The God of War and the nameless swordsman from Southern Qin—one ended an external conflict that could have led to the destruction of humanity, and the other ended an internal conflict that could have led to the loss of humanity—make the final battle between these two truly feel different.
Everyone was waiting... but then Zhao Yunxian broke the seal, and oh no, it was gone!
Want to read the next book? Wait a month or two!
"No way!" Furious, Ying Qin Guan sprang out of bed in the middle of the night. "We still have to drag this guy to the basement..."
That's what he said, but he knew he was just joking around, and after a moment he could only sigh and lie back down.
"Ji Li... Ji Li."
In the darkness, Ying Qin Guan stretched out his hand, holding it up meaninglessly, as if he could grasp the starry sky that way.
Born into a scholarly family, he trained arduously for thirty days. The book doesn't describe what Ji Li lost in that war—his family, relatives, and friends from before—it's all glossed over.
"If only I could be like you."

The next day, at the board game arcade.
The boss actually came back, holding the cat, smoking a cigarette, and sitting in his boss's chair.
Jiu Yi and Ying Qin Guan had developed a tacit understanding, and they arrived at the board game hall almost at the same time.
"What have you been doing these past few days?" Jiu Yi asked casually.
"I...I'll go take care of this."
Ying Qin Guan noticed that some bosses had certain self-reference habits. If there were people they didn't know well in the room, they would refer to themselves as "this humble one." If they were all acquaintances, they would generally refer to themselves as "I." This was different from Ye Qu, who always referred to herself as "woman."
As the shopkeeper spoke, he took out an exquisite box and casually handed it to Ying Qin Guan.
"It's yours."
"Oh?" Ying Qin Guan hadn't slept well for half the night because of Wang Qiu Shui, and his voice was weak and listless. "What is it?"
The shop owner smiled faintly and said, "You'll know once you open it."
Jiu Yi knew that someone like the boss wouldn't give away anything cheap, so he said expectantly, "What about me? Don't I have anything? If not, you can give me a skin."
The shopkeeper tapped his pipe and smiled, "If you meet this condition, Dean, I'll give you one in the future too."
"The conditions are met?" Jiu Yi immediately became curious, looked at the box, and urged, "Open it and see what conditions are met."
Ying Qin Guan's curiosity was piqued by the shopkeeper's words, and he immediately opened the box...
..
..
A sound card.
Moreover, it is probably the second most expensive sound card in the world. Although this card has never been auctioned, almost everyone estimates its value to be "second only to the God of War".
This is... the voice card of the nameless swordsman from the Southern Qin Dynasty!
Jiu Yi's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He rubbed them several times to make sure he wasn't seeing things, and then a murderous intent surged within him; he wanted to kill and steal the goods. As the saying goes, "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." Ying Qin Pass, Ying Qin Pass, once you get this, don't blame me, Jiu Yi, for turning my back on you...
If we can't beat them, then it's okay.
Finally, Jiu shook his head and sighed.
It seems that no one in the entire world is more deserving of this card than Ying Qin Guan.
Ying Qin Guan didn't react for a moment. Although he wasn't as obsessed with rare skins and cards as Jiu Yi, as a player of Time and Space Kill, it was impossible not to be happy to get a voice card, especially since it was his own card.
"Really? Boss... you're really giving it to me? Really?! There won't be any other requests or anything, like three wishes or something?"
The boss raised an eyebrow slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Alright, go ahead and say it."
Chapter 4 Audio
The "three wishes" thing was obviously a joke.
"It's good to be rich."
Ying Qin Guan touched his voice card and couldn't help but sigh.
Meanwhile, Jiu Yi had transformed into the ultimate, sublime sycophant, unleashing all his skills on his boss... Three cards!
The boss has already taken out three voice cards! He's given away two (the one for Qingcheng was basically a freebie), and the one he gave to Ying Qin Guan is a voice card for a divine general! And it's a voice card for a very popular divine general!
To put it bluntly, this one card can bring wealth to a family for ten generations!
Even Jiu couldn't help but be tempted! Maybe if he flattered the boss and made him happy, the boss might not only give him a voice card, but also send him directly into the Time-Space Kill card pool!
To be fair, it's quite possible. Many famous people in modern times send money to the Time-Space Killing Company just to get a card for themselves. For martial artists, getting a card is a great honor, and they can immediately recruit many disciples. For alchemists, it goes without saying that getting a card is even more so. In the future, when other alchemists make something, they can put your name on it and add a zero to the price. They can collect as much "intelligence tax" as they can.
However, the boss remained unmoved, and after licking for a while and finding it fruitless, the dog could only retreat dejectedly.
"Quick, let me hear the audio!"
Upon arriving at Ying Qin Pass, Jiu Yi requested to hear the voice recording. Ying Qin Pass readily agreed, having obtained the card. Faced with Jiu Yi, who had been desperately seeking a voice recording card, he couldn't help but feel a bit smug and immediately activated the card's voice recording.
First, there's the entrance voice... a deep, hoarse voice filled with determination.
The wind howls, the Yi River is cold... At this moment, only a fight to the death is possible. I am the last sword of Southern Qin.
The voice was incredibly captivating, especially the last sentence, its intonation and determination sending chills down Jiu Yi's spine. Ying Qin Guan's inner monologue kicked in again, repeating "I am the last sword of Southern Qin," thinking he could use it to show off later. Since no one else had this voice card, they'd probably assume it was just his own imagination. But Jiu Yi knew the truth; it wouldn't be good if he exposed him. Looks like he'd have to find a way to kill him!
This is followed by the legend of the invincible and the phrase "As long as my heart remains, the nation will not perish."
Although Ying Qin Guan has many skills, the last four are simply powerful and don't really resonate with the character of the Nameless Swordsman of Southern Qin. In other words, they lack divinity... It could be said that all the divinity of the indomitable conqueror is contained in these two skills.
It was still the same male voice, but this time, his voice was no longer deep, but passionate.
[The Undefeated Legend]
I will return from hell! / Stand up! Stand up! / I will not lose!
As long as my heart remains, my nation will not perish.
As long as I live, the Southern Qin will not perish! / There is no struggle in the world that I cannot win! / My swordsmanship is now mastered, take it and slay the dragons wherever they are! / Since emerging from my cave, I have had no equal, and I show no mercy where I should!
[Peerless]
Who is my opponent?! / Let me show you what true unparalleled skill really means!
[A thousand troops retreat]
All of you, come at me together! / May all who stand in your way be broken, and all who are struck be subdued!
[The Hegemon of Southern Qin]
Bring it on! / These minor injuries are nothing to worry about!
An Unyielding Will
Life goes on endlessly, an inexhaustible source! / It's not over yet!
Then... comes the death voice.
Ying Qin Guan reached out and swiped his hand on his exclusive stamina card, and a death voice line sounded.
It's worth noting that the Unyielding Fallen Kingdom has no death voice line before awakening; he is immortal before awakening. The game ends only if the opposing lord dies, but even then, it's not the Unyielding Fallen Kingdom that dies.
As for the rare cases where the stamina cap is reduced to zero, it seems that this was not considered by the designers.
His death message was simply that the 12-point stamina card had been slid to the bottom.
Have I... also been defeated? / The era of swords... has finally passed.
