Chapter 312 The benefits promised by the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan!

Gao Yao at that time was completely different. He had completely become a frontier official. At this time, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan realized that he had to show up in person. The plot had been changed beyond recognition, and Tianxing was extremely unstable. In countless reincarnations, Tianxing had been firmly bound to this world. Destroying the plot was equivalent to destroying the stability of Tianxing. Once Tianxing was completely destroyed, he would also die.

It is reasonable for a chef to become a high-ranking official step by step because of his forbearing nature. However, a high-ranking official who was born as a chef and studied ordinary high-ranking officials has now become a frontier official and even commands hundreds of thousands of troops. It would be strange if the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan was not surprised.

Why would the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan be so unscrupulous in carrying out a series of dangerous tasks such as assassination and rebellion? In fact, he has developed a deep fear of Gao Yao in his heart, but as proud as he is, he will never easily admit the existence of this fear.

Since Gao Yao took control of the southern border, the situation has changed dramatically. He first cleverly arranged for Ren Xiong to return to Xianyang, and then quietly sidelined Zhao Tuo. During this period, Gao Yao demonstrated outstanding leadership and far-sighted wisdom. He vigorously promoted the development of all aspects of the southern border, whether it was the improvement of smelting technology, the strengthening of military strength, or the construction of production and living facilities, all of which achieved remarkable results.

Faced with such a situation, even the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan, who thought highly of himself, had to admit that if he were to lead all this, he would probably feel overwhelmed. However, what made Yi Xiaochuan even more uneasy was that Gao Yao actually had a variety of special grain seeds in his hands! These precious resources would undoubtedly further consolidate Gao Yao's position and influence in the southern border.

Although the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan had noticed this problem a long time ago, he still couldn't find out how Gao Yao got these things. The only slightly reasonable explanation he could think of was that perhaps after Gao Yao occupied the southern border, he actively began to develop his naval forces and obtained these rare materials from the outside world through the naval expeditions. But even knowing this possibility, Yi Xiaochuan still felt helpless. After all, it was not easy to confirm this speculation and take corresponding countermeasures.

Now, after a long period of careful planning and preparation, a plan to eliminate the southern forces has taken shape. In order to achieve this goal, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan successfully bewitched Fusu.

In fact, there are many reasons why Fusu believed in Meng Yi, who was pretended by the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan. One of them was Meng Tian and the entire Meng family who firmly supported him from beginning to end. They always stood on Fusu's side and gave him endless support and help. Secondly, when no one supported to bring Fusu back, it was this mysterious Yi Xiaochuan who stepped forward, overcame all difficulties, insisted on welcoming Fusu back, and helped him ascend the throne and rule the world. How could Fusu not remember such a great kindness? Therefore, when the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan proposed a plan to wipe out Gao Yao in the southern border, Fusu chose to trust him almost without hesitation.

But in fact, for the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan, this war was just a plan to kill two birds with one stone, because no matter what the final outcome was, the Qin Dynasty was doomed to decline and even perish. However, due to Fusu's extreme trust in Yi Xiaochuan, coupled with the presence of many people in the court who believed in the legalist ideology, all these factors intertwined, making Fusu more and more convinced that Yi Xiaochuan's words were true. Thus, the battle that determined the fate of the Qin Dynasty kicked off...

All along, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan felt that this battle would be a 100% victory. Whether it was from the perspective of troop strength comparison, tactical layout, or intelligence control, this battle seemed to have no possibility of failure at all. However, when he heard the news of the Chu army's defeat, the rock-hard confidence in his heart finally cracked and began to shake violently.

How could the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan not know about the powerful strength of the Chu army? Although the Chu army at that time was relatively small in number, it had a brave and fearless general like Xiang Yu who charged into battle, a wise and resourceful military strategist like Fan Zeng who gave advice, and many capable and skilled generals from the Xiang family, such as Ji Bu and Long Ju. With their abilities and strengths, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan thought that even if he could not win, he could at least hold off the Southern Border Army for three months. But the cruel reality gave him a loud slap in the face. In less than two months, the Chu army was defeated, and even Kuaiji was about to fall completely.

Now the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan keenly sensed that something was wrong. He had to admit that he had seriously underestimated Gao Yao's ability before. Especially after experiencing the thrilling fight just now, even though his own martial arts value had reached its peak, he still could not cause substantial damage and threat to Gao Yao. At this moment, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan deeply realized that the Gao Yao in front of him could not be the Gao Yao he knew.

"You...you are the man from Beiyan Mountain?" When Gao Yao heard the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan ask this question, countless thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning across the night sky.

Gao Yao knew very well that anyone who could say "You are not Gao Yao" must have a good understanding of the original Gao Yao. Even the real Yi Xiaochuan, who had a close relationship with him, would at most be surprised by his huge change, but he would never say such a firm and clear statement.

The only person Gao Yao could think of who could do this was the mysterious and erratic Beiyan Shanren! Because only he could have planned a plan to seize the southern border, and only he could have information that could subvert the cognition of ordinary people.

Moreover, the astonishing strength displayed by the opponent made Gao Yao believe that his speculation was correct. Apart from the legendary Beiyan Mountain Man, he really couldn't think of anyone else who could have such a strong strength. If the man in front of him was just a subordinate or follower of Beiyan Mountain Man, Gao Yao would find it difficult to accept it anyway.

In the fight just now, the two seemed to be evenly matched, but in fact, Gao Yao was still firmly suppressed. It was not because of his lack of other aspects, but because he was much less experienced than the other party. If these people were all subordinates of Beiyanshanren, then Gao Yao really didn't need to fight. If there were more such people, Gao Yao would definitely die if they rushed forward. How could he fight then?

"So what if it is, and so what if it isn't, Gao Yao, oh Gao Yao, don't you understand clearly? This battle is inevitable for me, and there is no room for retreat or escape. As for you, you don't have to lose your life. What you pursue is nothing more than the power to control the world, and this requirement is not impossible to meet. Not only that, I can even lend you a helping hand, so that you can successfully seize the world, and give you the elixir of immortality! With these, you can enjoy wealth and glory in the world forever, wouldn't it be great?" The mysterious Yi Xiaochuan stared at Gao Yao with burning eyes, his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile.

Gao Yao sneered inwardly when he heard this, thinking: Just as I expected, this guy actually has such a plan. So he responded bluntly: "Humph, then what? In my opinion, next you have to let me change my name, and it would be best if I can act under the banner of Liu Bang and the Han Dynasty, right?"

The mysterious Yi Xiaochuan seemed quite calm, and he didn't seem surprised that Gao Yao guessed his intention. He just nodded slightly and admitted frankly: "Yes, that's what I mean. As long as you do what I say, I will forgive all the mistakes you made in the past. Then, you can enjoy the beauties, money and supreme imperial power in this world. Isn't this what you dream of?"

At this moment, Yi Xiaochuan's words were sincere and full of endless temptation. However, only he knew in his heart that he didn't care whether Gao Yao was alive or dead. What was really important was that the course of history could not be changed by anyone or anything. Therefore, if Gao Yao was willing to cooperate, he would indeed give up all the benefits in front of him without hesitation.

"Oh? Will you feel relieved?"

Although the two people's conversation was not loud, it was particularly clear in this silent environment. The distance between them was less than twenty steps, and each other's expressions and eyes could be clearly transmitted to each other. The distance between the other people and them was at least fifty steps away. In this way, there was no need to worry about their conversation being overheard by others.

Gao Yao could not believe what the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan said. In his opinion, if he believed it, he would be in for an unexpected disaster, and he might even lose his life.

If he were to think from Yi Xiaochuan's perspective, if there was always someone around him who wanted to take his life, and this person was still alive, he would definitely be worried and restless all day long. The guy who called himself Beiyanshanren would definitely not be that special exception. If he really chose to agree and compromise with him, it would mean that he had completely bowed his head and given up all resistance and defense.

"Gao Yao, the existence you care about may not be that important in the eyes of others. I am giving you sincere advice, and I promise I can do it."

"Not impossible, I also have a request."

"Say it"

"I also need to know your true identity!"
