Chapter 78: Farewell to Cao Qiu Dao
Rolling black smoke kept igniting everywhere in Linzi City, quickly covering this originally prosperous city.
Countless Qin soldiers were wandering around Linzi City, strangling the remaining Qi soldiers in Linzi City.
Almost all the Qin soldiers had smug smiles on their faces. They never dreamed that this time they attacked Qi State would make such a smooth progress.
Since Wu'an Jun Bai Sheng took over the seal of the general, he has led the Qin soldiers to fight towards Linzi City. Along the way, the Qin soldiers were unstoppable. No matter how Qi soldiers blocked it, they could not resist the attack from powerful enemies. In fact, the 200,000 army led by Qi Xianghousheng was killed by Wu'an Jun Bai Sheng with only 50,000 troops and horses.
These Qin soldiers easily invaded Linzi City, the capital of Qi, and accepted the surrender of King Jian of Qi.
At this point, the Qi Kingdom of the Tian family, which had been passed down for more than two hundred years, was declared to be destroyed.
However, just when the Qin soldiers celebrated the demise of Qi, no one noticed that Wu'an Jun Bai Sheng, as the commander of the army, had disappeared.
It's still the Jixia Academy Palace or the observatory.
Gu Xiao brought his personal soldiers to this familiar place.
But everything in front of him surprised him.
Twenty years ago, when he first came here, the scenery around this observatory was pleasant, with birds singing and flowers scented, which was a very peaceful and peaceful place. However, when he came here again this time, the original birds singing and flowers scented, had already turned into dead branches and leaves.
The peaceful and quiet place in the past is now only a cold and murderous aura.
All of this seems to symbolize the national destiny of Qi!
This originally peaceful place seems to have declined with the demise of Qi.
Gu Xiao came to the observatory alone and walked towards the observatory step by step. His steps were very calm without any hesitation.
When Gu Xiao walked onto the observatory, he saw Cao Qiudao.
Twenty years have passed, and Cao Qiudao has long lost his style as before. His black hair has become silvery and his originally rosy face has now become pale. In his hand, he is still holding a broad sword, and at this moment he is looking at everything in Linzi City.
"What are you looking at?" Gu Xiao walked to Cao Qiudao and asked leisurely.
Cao Qiudao was not surprised by his appearance, and he didn't even turn his head and said calmly: "I'm watching the demise of a country!"
"Haha, right in front of you, Qi State is destroyed!" Gu Xiao said with a smile.
Cao Qiudao turned his head, looked at him, and said, "No! I am watching the demise of Qin!"
"Are you kidding?" Gu Xiao couldn't help but smile.
Although he was laughing on his face, he was already wary of his heart. No one would know that the powerful Qin State would now perish in just a few decades due to tyranny. Now Cao Qiudao actually said that he was watching the demise of Qin State. Could it be that he had already predicted the end of Qin?
Cao Qiudao turned around and faced Gu Xiao, saying, "I never joke!"
Gu Xiao sneered: "Then you are still telling jokes in front of me!"
"No, I didn't tell a joke, your Qin State will soon perish!" Cao Qiu said.
Gu Xiao said: "How can I see it?"
Cao Qiu said: "You Qin people are cruel and destined not to last long!"
Gu Xiao couldn't help but breathe when he heard this. He thought that Cao Qiudao, the sword tycoon, had learned Zou Yan's tricks at that time. It turned out that he was just talking nonsense.
Gu Xiao retorted: "It's a pity that even if Qin really dies, you can no longer see it. In my eyes, my Qin Dynasty will flourish sooner or later, creating the most brilliant page on the land of Jiuzhou!"
"You can't see this day!" Cao Qiudao's tone turned cold and raised the sword in his hand - the sword of the general!
With a clang, Cao Qiudao drew his sword out of the sheath. Even though he was already in his twilight years, the sword in his hand was still so sharp, just like his prime.
With a clang, Gu Xiao also drew his sword out of the sheath.
"Sword is famous for killing generals, please give me advice!" Cao Qiudao drew his sword in his hand and shouted coldly.
Gu Xiao also drew his sword in his hand and said, "The sword is a hero, please give me advice!"
After speaking, the two bowed to each other at the same time.
This ceremony has nothing to do with each other's hatred, but is just a simple etiquette.
After the ceremony, the two of them stood upright at the same time, facing each other, and the two sharp swords in their hands were shining with cold light under the sun.
With all eyes facing each other, both of them looked at each other without giving in.
At this moment, Cao Qiudao's determination to kill Gu Xiao was unprecedentedly high. No one knew how regretful Cao Qiudao was that he did not kill Gu Xiao back then.
Many times, Cao Qiudao was wondering if he had killed the other party on this observatory back then, wouldn't it be so bad?
Cao Qiudao, like everyone else, has always regretted the act of letting the tiger go back to the mountain. If he had not let the tiger go back to the mountain, but had killed the boy and his disciple in front of him, then the six kingdoms might not have suffered the disaster of destruction of the country now.
This is an idea that Cao Qiudao and others have all had.
Unfortunately, it's too late now.
Now, among the six eastern countries, Qi, the last country, has fallen under the iron hooves of the Qin people, and it is too late to regret releasing the tiger back to the mountain.
There is only one thing Cao Qiudao can do now, that is - kill the person in front of him!
