"Today's revenge will be paid tomorrow!" He left these words and turned into a black shadow, disappearing into the night.

Ying Yuan did not pursue him, because he knew that Donghuang Taiyi would come back again.

He looked at Donghuang Taiyi who was going away, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, "I'm waiting for you!"

The mirage slowly sank on the sea surface and finally disappeared into the waves.

When Ying Yuan returned to the shore, Meng Tian and Wang Jian immediately came to greet him.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Meng Tian asked with concern.

Ying Yuan waved his hand, "I'm fine."

Wang Jian looked at Ying Yuan with admiration in his eyes, "Your Majesty is so brave and invincible, it is a blessing for our Great Qin!"

Ying Yuan smiled and said, "Thanks to Mr. Gai for his help this time."

Gai Nie came over and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your praise."

Ying Yuan patted Gai Nie on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Gai, you don't have to be polite. You and I are brothers, why should we be like this?"

Gai Nie smiled slightly and said nothing.

Meng Tian and Wang Jian looked at the two men with deep emotion. They knew that the brotherhood between Ying Yuan and Gai Nie was indestructible.

Just then, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves in the distance, and a group of people and horses galloped over.

The leader was none other than the Great Sima of Destiny of the Yin-Yang School.

She looked at Ying Yuan, her eyes full of murderous intent, "Ying Yuan, accept your death!"

It turned out that before Donghuang Taiyi escaped, he had secretly informed Da Siming and asked her to come and assassinate Ying Yuan.

Da Siming brandished the Yin-Yang magic in his hand, and a powerful force attacked Ying Yuan.

Ying Yuan's face changed. He didn't expect that Donghuang Taiyi actually had a backup plan.

He quickly drew his sword to resist, but Da Siming's attack was too powerful and he was unable to resist for a moment.

"Your Majesty, be careful!" Meng Tian and Wang Jian exclaimed and hurried forward to help.

Gai Nie also drew his sword and joined the battle.

The four of them fought fiercely with the Great Sima Ming, and the sword energy collided with the power of yin and yang, causing bursts of loud noises.

The battle lasted for a long time, and finally, Ying Yuan and others joined forces to defeat Da Siming.

However, before he died, Da Siming sneered, "Ying Yuan, do you think you have won? You will soon find out that everything you have done is in vain!"

Ying Yuan's heart shuddered. He didn't know what the Great God of Destiny meant by this.

He looked at the body of Dasi Ming, his heart full of doubts...

The body of Da Siming slowly fell down, but Ying Yuan did not feel the joy of victory, but felt even heavier. Da Siming's sneer and words before his death pierced his heart like a thorn.

"What does she mean? What does 'everything you do is in vain' mean?" Ying Yuan muttered to himself.

Gai Nie walked up to him and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the Yin-Yang family's actions are secretive. Maybe it's just a curse before death. Don't take it to heart."

Meng Tian and Wang Jian also echoed: "Yes, Your Majesty, we have already won the victory. We don't need to pay attention to these guys who are pretending to be gods."

Ying Yuan shook his head. He always felt that things were not that simple. Before Donghuang Taiyi escaped, he deliberately sent Da Siming to assassinate him. There must be some deep meaning behind this.

"Pass the order down and strengthen the vigilance. I always feel that something is going to happen." Ying Yuan ordered.

Everyone took the order and left. Ying Yuan stood alone on the beach, looking at the rough sea, with a thousand thoughts in his mind.

As the night deepened, the sea breeze whistled, blowing Ying Yuan's robe. He looked up at the starry sky, which was dotted with stars and shining with mysterious light.

"What am I doing?" Ying Yuan suddenly asked himself.

He founded the Qin Dynasty and unified the world, thinking that he could bring peace and prosperity to the people. However, the war never stopped. The remnants of the six kingdoms, the underworld forces, the Yin-Yang family... one enemy after another made him exhausted.

He longed for peace and a world without war, but reality pushed him into the abyss time and time again.

"Maybe I was really wrong." Ying Yuan said with a wry smile.

Just then, a dark shadow suddenly appeared behind him.

"Your Majesty, what are you thinking about?" Ying Yuan turned around and saw that it was Gai Nie.

"Mr. Gai, why are you here?" Ying Yuan asked.

Gai Nie walked up to him, stood side by side with him, and looked at the sea in the distance.

"I just feel uneasy about your majesty." Gai Nie said calmly.

Ying Yuan smiled and said, "Why should I worry? I am invincible in the world!"

Gai Nie didn't say anything, just stood there quietly.

Ying Yuan looked at Gai Nie, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He knew that Gai Nie really cared about him.

"Mr. Gai, do you think I was really wrong?" Ying Yuan suddenly asked.

Gai Nie was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Your Majesty, I dare not speak rashly about right or wrong, but I know that everything Your Majesty has done is for Daqin and for the people."

Ying Yuan sighed, "But I have brought endless wars to the people."

Gai Nie shook his head. "War is not what your majesty wants, but it is inevitable in troubled times. Your majesty unified the six kingdoms and ended hundreds of years of war. This is already a great merit."

Ying Yuan looked at Gai Nie, his heart filled with gratitude. He knew that Gai Nie was comforting him.

"Thank you, Mr. Gai." Ying Yuan said sincerely.

Gai Nie smiled slightly, "Your Majesty, you don't have to be polite. I just told the truth."

The two fell into silence again, with only the sound of the whistling sea breeze echoing in their ears.

After a while, Ying Yuan suddenly said, "Mr. Gai, I want to go out for a walk."

Gai Nie nodded, "I will accompany your majesty."

The two left the beach and walked slowly along the coastline.

The night is deep, and the moonlight shines on the sea, making the waves sparkle and beautify the sea.

Ying Yuan's mood gradually calmed down. He looked at Gai Nie beside him, his heart filled with gratitude.

"Mr. Gai, it's great to have you." Ying Yuan said sincerely.

Gai Nie smiled slightly, "It is my honor to serve your majesty."

The two continued walking forward, and before they knew it, they came to a dense forest.

The woods were quiet, with only the occasional chirping of insects breaking the silence.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, the leaves rustled, and a strange smell spread.

Ying Yuan and Gai Nie stopped at the same time and looked around vigilantly.

"Who is it?" Ying Yuan shouted sternly.

No one answered, only the sound of wind blowing through leaves.

Ying Yuan and Gai Nie looked at each other and saw a hint of solemnity in each other's eyes.

At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly jumped out from the depths of the woods and headed straight towards Ying Yuan.

The black shadow was extremely fast and arrived in front of Ying Yuan in the blink of an eye.

Ying Yuan quickly drew his sword to block, and there was a "clang" sound, and sparks flew.

The black shadow was pushed back several steps, revealing its true appearance.

He was a mysterious man wearing black and a mask.

"Who are you?" Ying Yuan asked coldly.

The mysterious man did not answer, but launched another attack.

Ying Yuan and Gai Nie joined forces to fight a fierce battle with the mysterious man.

The mysterious man has great martial arts skills and strange moves. Ying Yuan and Gai Nie are unable to defeat him for a while. (End of this chapter)
