Chapter 188 Flying Back to Xianyang City

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, Meng Yi reflexively responded loudly, then suppressed his surprise and doubt and hurried off to make preparations.

It wasn't until Ying Zheng finished his meal that the truth was revealed to him, but Meng Yi was completely dumbfounded by what he heard.

However, he did not doubt the truth of the matter, after all, it was said by his own emperor, and he had just witnessed the change in his emperor.

"That's roughly how things are. After the Fengshan ceremony tomorrow, you will return to Xianyang with me."

The rest of the men were told to hurry back. They would deal with Zhao Gao first, but Li Si was spared for now; he would still be useful.

"Today, I've truly encountered a benefactor; otherwise, if I were still taking those elixirs of immortality, I probably wouldn't have many years left to live."

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Meng Yi was horrified, but he was also quite accepting of them.

After all, His Majesty pursued the path to immortality and believed in immortals. Although he was a military general, he knew that there were many extraordinary people in the world. He just did not expect that they would actually encounter a real immortal today.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations on meeting such a distinguished person! This is a blessing for our Great Qin, a blessing for Your Majesty! In the future, the iron cavalry of Great Qin will surely crush the Xiongnu, and Great Qin will last for thousands of generations!" Meng Yi hurriedly knelt down to offer his congratulations.

"Very well! The distinguished guests have said that the trade fair will be held in a little over a month. At that time, I will bring back the Marrow Cleansing Pills for you."

At that time, you will be able to cultivate the Great Dao just like me, and then join me in conquering the four directions and unifying the world!

Ying Zheng was in a very good mood, and felt a surge of joy. At this moment, he seemed to have rediscovered the feeling he had when he conquered the six states. No, he should say he was even more excited than before.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Meng Yi responded excitedly. He hadn't expected that His Majesty would still think of them and even let them cultivate the immortal's skills together. Just thinking about it made him incredibly excited.

That night, Ying Zheng slept exceptionally well, as if he could already see himself living forever and unifying the world. Meng Yi was the same, tossing and turning all night with excitement.

And so the second day arrived, which was also the day originally scheduled for the Fengshan ceremony.

The large group of people arrived at the altar, which had been built recently. The stone tablets were carved with the achievements of the First Emperor in unifying the world.

Today, Ying Zheng was dressed very formally, in a black and gold robe with dragon patterns, wearing a crown, and worshipping heaven and earth with a devout expression.

"Between heaven and earth, all things and living beings are born from heaven. I am the one destined by heaven. Today, I pray to the heavens to bless the Great Qin with prosperity, peace, and eternal existence..."

Gu Xinyan and her group, who were recording the whole thing from the crowd behind them, were so excited they were practically bubbling with excitement. After all, this was a famous historical record, and they were actually able to witness it with their own eyes.

The surrounding ministers, scholars, and guards, though puzzled by the sight of these men carrying strange black objects, dared not utter a word.

The ceremony lasted until the afternoon before it ended. After giving instructions to the main force, Ying Zheng led Meng Yi to the shop.

Upon seeing the arrival of the two, Gu Xinyan didn't say anything more. With a wave of her hand, the three-story building instantly disappeared from everyone's sight, which shocked everyone once again.

But then, something even more astonishing happened: the men produced a longsword from nowhere, and the sword seemed to come alive, instantly growing much larger.

Then, they saw those men, along with their emperor and General Meng Yi, suddenly soar into the sky and disappear from their sight.

Everyone: ".........."

After a long silence, without being urged, he hurriedly turned around and went down the mountain, heading towards Xianyang City.

Meanwhile, Ying Zheng and Meng Yi stood behind Lu Yunting and Li Chendong respectively, protected by wind shields so that no wind could blow in.

Along the way, watching the mountains and rivers rushing past below, I was deeply moved. This feeling was unlike anything I had ever experienced before; it was truly wonderful.

Meng Yi was equally excited. He had always thought he was quite brave, but now, suspended thousands of miles in the air, he suddenly felt his legs inexplicably go weak.

But deep down, I couldn't help but yearn for it, wondering when I would be able to possess such extraordinary abilities.

Flying on their swords, they were incredibly fast. Not long after nightfall, they could already see the outline of Xianyang. Following the direction pointed out by Ying Zheng, they flew all the way to the Xianyang Palace.

As the group slowly landed in front of Ying Zheng's palace, unsurprisingly, it drew gasps from the guards and palace maids.

If it weren't for recognizing someone among them, a riot might have broken out by now.

Seeing the commotion caused by their arrival, Meng Yi quickly stepped forward to stop it and disperse the crowd.

Although the crowd was dispersed, the commotion did not stop, and within a quarter of an hour, the news spread throughout the entire Xianyang Palace.

"What did you say? Our Emperor invited several immortals? And they flew over? There really are immortals here!"

"Yes, yes, although I didn't see it myself, I heard from those who did that they flew over, they were there in a flash, that's amazing!"

"Could this really be an immortal from Penglai? I wonder what this immortal looks like! It's a pity I can't go and see!"

"I'd like to go see him. Didn't His Majesty go to Mount Tai for the Fengshan ceremony? How come he brought back immortals?"

"You're asking me? How would I know? Just wait and see, we'll find out sooner or later!"

The news was spreading like wildfire here, while Ying Zheng, looking at the familiar palace, thought that it was getting late, so he asked Meng Yi to prepare dinner.

After watching Meng Yi walk away, he then turned to Gu Xinyan and the others and extended an invitation:

"It's getting late, and I'm sure you're all hungry. Let's have something to eat together later. The food in our Great Qin is quite good. If you like it, I'll have someone send it to you every day!"

It's getting late. Why don't you all stay overnight in the palace? Tomorrow, I'll have Meng Yi escort you out of the palace. There's a spacious spot near the palace gate, perfect for placing a shop.

Being so close to Xianyang Palace, no one will dare to cause trouble. I will have Meng Yi make all the arrangements!

Upon hearing this, Gu Xinyan and the others thought for a moment and then agreed, because they also wanted to try the delicacies of Xianyang Palace.

I've heard that the chefs at Xianyang Palace are all selected through rigorous processes, so their culinary skills are undoubtedly superb and absolutely delicious.

As for staying in Xianyang Palace? They had absolutely no objections. They had never stayed in a palace before, and today they were finally getting to experience it!
