Qin Yu's thoughts were simply too abnormal.
In everyone's eyes, this guy seemed to be missing a screw in his head.
He was solely focused on vying for favor in front of Emperor Wu of Qin.
One must know, he was currently commanding an army of half a million!
Flattening the capital would be as easy as flipping his hand.
But this was a female-oriented novel world; there was absolutely no logic to speak of.
"Brother Qin Yu, after we defeat Qin Xiao, can we not kill him?"
The girl in the pink dress sitting beside Qin Yu pouted, acting coquettishly toward him.
She looked sweet and adorable, her big, watery eyes blinking like a pitifully cute little creature.
Her overly affected posture, in particular, tickled Qin Yu's heart, making him wish he could pull her into his arms and cherish her.
She was none other than the daughter of Cai Kun, one of the female leads, Cai Suwan.
Meeting Qin Yu's puzzled gaze, Cai Suwan lightly pounded his shoulder with her small fist and smiled.
"Brother Qin Yu, Qin Xiao's martial arts are unparalleled in the world. If we kill him, wouldn't we be cutting off our own arm?"
"Why not train him to be a slave?"
"This way, we will have a completely obedient and fiercely loyal great general."
At this point, she leaned in close to Qin Yu's ear, her big watery eyes filled with bewitchment.
Feeling a waft of fragrant breeze, Qin Yu couldn't help but feel his heart flutter.
"Wan'er, you're right! Not killing Qin Xiao is much more useful than killing him!"
His eyes lit up as he pulled Cai Suwan into his embrace, his voice thick with excitement.
"Wan'er, having you by my side is truly this king's blessing!"
Qin Yu could already imagine it—once Qin Xiao was trained into a slave, wouldn't Qin Xiao be forced to just watch him vie for their parents' favor?
He trembled slightly with excitement, feeling a dark thrill in his heart.
He was originally a fake prince. In terms of legitimacy, he couldn't be compared to Qin Xiao at all.
He vaguely remembered the scene of his first encounter with Qin Xiao.
At that time, Qin Xiao was very thin and small, wearing tattered clothes.
While he, surrounded by a crowd, was as noble as a monarch looking down on an ant.
But in just these short few years...
The changes were too drastic!
No one expected that ever since Qin Xiao joined the army, he would rise so rapidly!
Conquering ten thousand nations, slaughtering foreign tribes, and pushing the crumbling Great Qin all the way to the seat of the hegemon among the Seven Kingdoms!
From that moment on, his gaze toward Qin Xiao turned from disdain to jealousy and resentment!
Whenever Qin Xiao returned to the court in triumphant victory, he felt as powerless as an ant facing a giant dragon.
He had nothing; the only thing he could obtain was his parents' doting love.
And now, the opportunity to completely control Qin Xiao was right in his hands. How could he not be excited!
"Brother Yu, I will definitely help you properly train Qin Xiao and turn him into an obedient slave."
Su Wan'er nodded gently, smiling very sweetly, but a flash of disdain crossed the depths of her eyes.
To her, Qin Yu was nothing more than a stepping stone.
Just a chance for her to leap high, witness more wonders, and seize ultimate power.
Qin Xiao, of course, had to be firmly grasped in her own hands!
She was the grand female lead, destined to rely on herself to achieve a grand hegemony!
As for training Qin Xiao, she had absolute confidence!
Hearing the two conspiring loudly, the generals in the tent didn't look too pleased.
"Qin Xiao is a general of our Great Qin. If he is defeated in battle, just kill him. Why torture him like this?"
Everyone felt a bitter taste in their mouths.
They also hadn't expected the two of them to be so vicious.
But now that they had boarded this pirate ship, it was too late to say anything.
Right at this moment.
"Report!"
A messenger soldier rushed into the tent and knelt on one knee.
"Reporting to the King of Qi, according to the news from Chancellor Cai Kun, Qin Xiao has brought all of our army's families to the capital."
"Lord Cai Kun says that Qin Xiao intends to surrender!"
Hearing this, all the officers and soldiers froze in place.
The atmosphere in the entire military tent sank.
Then, brilliant light erupted in everyone's eyes!
"Great! With Qin Xiao surrendering, we can easily take down the capital!"
"Indeed, Qin Xiao's martial prowess is peerless. Fighting him makes us tremble with fear. This time, his surrender will save us from losing troops and generals."
"I knew it, Qin Xiao would definitely surrender for the sake of Great Qin! After all, we are the elites of Great Qin. If we slaughter each other and suffer heavy losses, wouldn't we just be letting other countries take advantage?"
"At least Qin Xiao knows what's good for him and didn't choose to court death."
The generals breathed a long sigh of relief and began to exchange cups and toast each other.
For a time, the scene was extremely lively.
Qin Yu was even more overjoyed, laughing heartily.
"Hahaha! I didn't expect Qin Xiao to actually be scared into surrendering by this king!"
"It seems Qin Xiao is nothing more than this. It is this king who has been overestimating him all along!"
Cai Suwan also couldn't help but nod, her eyes curving into crescents, looking very happy.
After everyone had a round of drinks, they were all full and satisfied.
Qin Yu stood up and said loudly, "Generals, since Qin Xiao has chosen to surrender, let's quickly march into the capital!"
"When the time comes, all the good things in Qin Xiao's mansion will be yours to choose from!"
As soon as Qin Yu's words fell, the generals immediately became excited.
For a peerless expert like Qin Xiao, his martial arts manuals were priceless treasures!
The group of generals rubbed their hands together, ready to dispatch the troops, storm the capital, seize Qin Xiao's mansion, and loot it clean!
Following Qin Yu's order.
The five hundred thousand border troops immediately set out, marching grandly along the river toward the capital.
Looking down from the sky, the densely packed army looked just like a swarm of ants.
As they marched, they kicked up violent storms and flying dust wherever they passed.
.....
In the capital.
Qin Yu leading the five hundred thousand strong army to arrive outside the city caused a massive sensation.
Not only was the entire capital buzzing with noise.
Even the civil and military officials all went up to the city walls.
Qin Xiao stood tall in front of the officials, looking down.
Amidst the flying dust, expanses of black-armored soldiers stood like iron towers not far from the city gates, like dark clouds blocking out the sun, making one's scalp tingle!
"Your Majesty, is this the border army? They truly cannot be underestimated!"
Jia Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, gently waving the feather fan in his hand.
He was pondering—if this army wasn't loyal to Qin Xiao, how could he make all the border troops die in battle!
Lu Fengxian said carelessly, "Is this it? If our Northern Liang army were here, they would definitely run faster than rabbits!"
Also being a border army of Great Qin, although the border army was formidable, the environment of the Northern Liang army was even harsher, constantly walking the fine line between life and death year-round.
But currently, the Northern Liang army wasn't here. Facing this half-million-strong army, Lu Fengxian also felt a bit heavy-hearted.
Behind Qin Xiao.
The civil and military officials looked at each other, immense joy erupting in their eyes.
The King of Qi had finally arrived!
They were going to be liberated from the hands of this tyrant!
Of course, they dared not speak much, afraid that saying the wrong thing would lead to Qin Xiao executing their nine generations.
"Qin Xiao! This king has arrived!"
Qin Yu rode a tall steed, wearing golden armor, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.
Holding the reins, he came alone to the front of the city gates and looked up at Qin Xiao.
His eyes were filled with sarcasm and disdain.
"Qin Xiao, you have already admitted defeat. Hurry up and open the city gates to let this king in!"
"I advise you to move faster. If you make this king unhappy, this king wouldn't mind sentencing all your subordinates to death!"
Qin Yu's lips curled into a cruel smile, his threatening intent on full display!
On the city tower, everyone's hearts skipped a beat.
They all subconsciously looked at Qin Xiao.
With Qin Yu being so arrogant, could it be that Qin Xiao was not angry?
At this moment, the voice of the system rang out in Qin Xiao's mind.

g Yu was preparing for retirement when her organization decided to eliminate her. She transmigrated to a zombie apocalypse world. However, a tiny unexpected situation occurred: She somehow transformed into an adorable little girl?!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
