At that time, he did not understand what the child meant.
Later, the child returned to the Qin state and succeeded to the throne as King of Qin, but he had no real power.
At that time, Lao Ai and Lü Buwei controlled the government, and the court was full of their people. Their power was immense.
Even in a helpless situation, the young king fought his way out, eliminating Lao Ai and Lü Buwei, seizing power, and becoming the true king of Qin.
On that day, the child of that time had grown into a young man and stood before Wang Jian as the King of Qin.
His eyes remained as calm as before, as if all the ups and downs in the world could not stir up the slightest ripples in his eyes.
He looked at Wang Jian and said, "I, Ying Zheng, will one day become the one who unifies the world!"
Wang Jian still vividly remembers that determined look in his eyes, as if he were simply stating a fact that he could accomplish with a mere gesture.
But Wang Jian knew exactly how difficult that path was.
At that time, among the seven states, the strength of Qin was only considered to be below average, and no one thought that Qin could defeat the other states.
Even Wang Jian thought it was unlikely.
"Are you willing to help me unify the world?"
At that moment, the young man looked at him, his eyes still calm as he extended the invitation.
Although I thought it was impossible.
Although I think it's just a youthful fantasy.
Although it was clear that the Qin Dynasty was far weaker than the other states.
But when he saw the young man's eyes, Wang Jian felt inexplicably at ease, as if anything was possible.
It seemed that as long as that young man was there, nothing else mattered.
"Your humble servant Wang Jian is willing to protect Your Majesty with his life!"
Wang Jian agreed to it almost as if possessed, and even later he couldn't understand why he made that decision.
It seems like they just wanted to do it that way, so they did it.
The memory vanished in an instant. Wang Jian's eyes widened as he saw the Soul Reaper raise his giant scythe high and slash at Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Having regained some consciousness, Wang Jian dragged his battered body to his feet and stood in front of Ying Zheng, letting the giant scythe press down on him.
His gaze was unwavering, and he roared, "I will protect His Majesty!"
That was a vow he made with his life, a promise etched in his mind, one he would never forget, no matter how much time had passed.
At the same time, the Xianyang Palace suddenly trembled, as if some giant beast was galloping and dancing underground, preparing to break out of the ground.
Xiaoyao was taken aback. "What's going on?"
He had been in Qin for many years, but this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
The little guy next to him sat up, his expression full of surprise, "General Wang's power has awakened!"
Xiaoyao looked at the little guy with a puzzled expression, "Power awakening?"
The little guy said excitedly, "When there is enough desire, the power will respond. It seems that General Wang has found a connection with that power."
Xiaoyao frowned slightly, not quite understanding the little guy's description.
But seeing the little guy's expression, he guessed that something big must have happened.
The little guy ran quickly forward and then stopped in front of the tower.
He looked up at the towering tower and murmured, "So this is where it is."
After saying that, he rushed into the tower.
Xiaoyao looked puzzled. "What's here?"
He didn't understand what the little guy was saying, but seeing how anxious the little guy looked, he didn't ask any more questions and quickly followed the little guy's pace.
The little guy rushed up into the tower and finally stopped in the room where the memorial tablets were placed, his eyes fixed on the distance ahead.
There were flashes of golden light, and some talismans flickered and danced, which was quite eerie.
Xiaoyao examined the talismans, his brows furrowing slightly. "This is... an eye restriction?"
"But is it some kind of seal?"
With a puzzled expression, Xiaoyao stepped forward and reached out to touch the talismans. Instantly, a surge of primordial power erupted, causing him to stagger backward.
He was startled. "What exactly is sealed here? How could there be such a powerful restriction?"
He had already sensed the power of the restriction from that touch. A restriction of this level must be sealing something terrifying, otherwise it would never be so powerful.
Xiaoyao could even vaguely sense that this restriction was related to the laws of heaven and earth, as if it were set up by the Heavenly Dao.
The little guy stared intently at the restriction, "It's been sealed for long enough. Now that the power has been returned to its rightful owner, shouldn't it be returned to its rightful owner?"
The runes on the barrier flickered again, but showed no sign of disappearing.
Seeing this, the little guy's eyes turned slightly cold. "You unreasonable brat, I won't tolerate you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his aura surged wildly, and he stretched out one hand. Golden light flashed on his palm, as if it contained infinite power, and he smashed it fiercely towards the restriction.
With a slap, the restriction trembled slightly, and then a terrifying power of the Great Dao rippled out, causing the little guy to take a few steps back.
His eyes darkened. "You've got a temper now?!"
After speaking, the little guy clenched his fist with one hand, and endless energy surged around him. All the power gathered towards his fist, and golden light continuously emerged around him, with boundless Dao power circulating endlessly.
With that convergence of energy, his small fist surged with power, seemingly containing boundless strength in an instant.
The little guy roared and stepped forward, punching the barrier. Terrifying power spread out, and the two forces collided, creating gusts of wind.
"break!"
The little guy roared and slammed his fist forward, instantly shattering the restriction.
Without the restrictions, a golden light roared out, like a golden dragon emerging from the heavens. Its terrifying pressure swept across the entire imperial city, breaking through the top of the tower and soaring into the sky.
Watching the golden light disappear into the distance, the little guy blinked his big eyes and said, "Welcome back, General Wang."
The giant scythe roared down, heading straight for Wang Jian. Just then, a golden light flew over and instantly entered Wang Jian's body.
As the golden light poured in, Wang Jian's aura suddenly surged, and an incomparably terrifying power emanated from his body.
Even the giant scythe that crashed down seemed to encounter a mountain when it came into contact with that force, and could not move forward even an inch.
Sensing that terrifying power, the Soul Reaper was taken aback. "What's going on?"
As that power surged in, Wang Jian's wounds began to heal rapidly, and endless radiance flowed around him, even his eyes shone with golden light.
With a single hand outstretched, the spear fell back into his grasp. Then, with a roar, a terrifying aura spread out, causing the Soul Reaper to retreat violently.
The Soul Reaper looked at Wang Jian with surprise. "What's going on?"
Wang Jian, who was just on the verge of death, is now suddenly full of energy, which is truly bizarre.
A powerful aura surged around Wang Jian, and with a single wave of his hand, his spear stirred up a gust of wind.
He stood in front of Ying Zheng, spear in hand, his gaze coldly fixed on the Soul Reaper. "General Wang Jian is here. Do not harm my lord!"
