"My King, Li Gen has arrived!"
"Quick! Bring him to me!"
"Yes!"
The Black Ice Platform moved swiftly. In just one day, Uncle Gen was brought to Xianyang City.
Knowing that it was the Iron Eagle Ruishi looking for him, Uncle Gen did not resist.
He knew that in Great Qin, only King Qin, Ying Zheng, could command the Iron Eagle Ruishi.
Seeing these Iron Eagle Ruishi, Uncle Gen could roughly guess what had happened.
"After all these years, Your Majesty has finally found me!!"
Uncle Gen had longed for Ying Zheng to find him and acknowledge Lin Tian.
But he also knew that their strength had been too weak before.
If they had acknowledged Ying Zheng at that time, they wouldn't have known how they died.
They had waited until now, when Ying Zheng had firmly controlled Great Qin, and Lin Tian had some strength, that they had a chance to acknowledge each other.
Now, Ying Zheng had personally sent people to find him and bring him to Xianyang City. The opportunity for acknowledgment had truly arrived.
With excitement, Uncle Gen walked into the familiar Xianyang Palace.
"Iron Eagle Ruishi Li Gen pays his respects to Your Majesty!"
"Rise!!"
"Li Gen, it really is you!!"
"It is I! Your Majesty, I have returned!!"
As he said this, Uncle Gen couldn't help but shed tears.
In order not to let Lin Tian suffer any harm and to let him grow up safely, he had endured too much.
Now that he saw King Qin, Ying Zheng, again, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
He could breathe a sigh of relief, but Ying Zheng was so excited that his hands and feet trembled.
"Where did you go all these years?"
"Back then, your subordinate escorted the Mistress as she fled, but we were still pursued."
"Your subordinate and the Mistress were both injured in the pursuit, and the other brothers were killed outright!"
"As for the Mistress, she died in childbirth when she gave birth to the young master!"
Ying Zheng had already investigated these matters clearly before.
However, hearing Uncle Gen recount them, he couldn't help but feel guilty.
If he had been extremely powerful from the beginning and controlled the entire Qin state.
Lin Dong'er would not have died, and Lin Tian would not have suffered in the outside world for many years.
"Then... does Tian'er know that he is this king's son?"
"He does not know. Your subordinate only gave the young master the Suihou Pearl, the Immortal's Knees, and the Tai'a Sword left by the Mistress. I have not yet told the young master of his identity!"
"This, is that so?"
"Then will Tian'er... reject this king if this king acknowledges him?"
Although Ying Zheng was the king of Great Qin and the overlord of the world.
He couldn't help but worry about this matter.
If Lin Tian was unwilling to acknowledge him, it would be a huge blow to him.
Fortunately, Uncle Gen's words comforted Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty can rest assured. The young master has been intelligent since he was young. When he received those treasures, he already understood that his identity was not simple!"
"These days in Xianyang, I believe he has already made some guesses about his identity!"
"Therefore, I think if Your Majesty acknowledges the young master, he will accept it very easily!"
"Moreover, your subordinate can explain the reason to the young master, and I believe the young master will not reject it!"
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng visibly relaxed.
Although he had many sons, he had never been alone with Lin Tian.
He understood even more that with Lin Tian's current achievements, he would not actively seek favor with the royal family just because of the supreme status of the Qin royal family.
Therefore, Ying Zheng was not confident that Lin Tian would acknowledge him.
But with Uncle Gen's affirmative answer, Ying Zheng was considerably relieved.
Afterward, Lin Tian waited in his mansion for someone he had not expected.
"Uncle Gen?"
"It's me! I've arrived!"
Seeing Lin Tian now in military armor, Uncle Gen was filled with relief.
When Lin Tian chose to practice swordsmanship, he knew that Lin Tian's achievements would be extraordinary.
He also knew that Lin Tian would eventually acknowledge Ying Zheng.
But he hadn't expected it to happen so quickly.
In less than half a year, Lin Tian had achieved what ordinary people might never achieve in a lifetime, relying on himself.
Such a Lin Tian was truly outstanding.
"You've grown up!"
"Hehe! I was still thinking of finding an opportunity to bring Uncle Gen over, but I didn't expect Uncle Gen to come himself!"
Speaking of this, a rare hint of sincerity appeared on Lin Tian's face.
Clearly, he regarded Uncle Gen as a true family member.
Therefore, he allowed himself to show his sincere side.
At this moment, Uncle Gen also took a deep breath and then said:
"Actually, I didn't come on my own. I only found out about your affairs yesterday!"
"I came to Xianyang City because someone invited me!"
"Actually... you are the son of Your Majesty, the eldest young master of Great Qin!!"
Uncle Gen had wanted to say these words for a long time.
Now that he had decided, he naturally laid it all out.
This revelation astonished Lin Tian.
"Me? The eldest young master of Great Qin??"
Lin Tian had made some assumptions about his identity before. He had even wondered if he was the abandoned son of Lord Chang'an, Cheng Jiao.
Because Ying Zheng had forgiven Cheng Jiao, he had been welcomed back to the residence of Lord Chang'an.
But he never expected that he was the son of Ying Zheng, and moreover, the eldest young master of Great Qin.
This change in identity was too great for Lin Tian, so much so that he couldn't react for a moment.
After a long while, he finally asked:
"Am I really a prince of Great Qin?"
"Yes!!"
"Then my mother...?"
"The Mistress was originally a woman of Zhao. She grew up with Your Majesty in the state of Zhao. They were childhood sweethearts, innocent and pure!"
"However, later, after returning to Xianyang, the Mistress felt that the Xianyang Palace was not safe, so she took you away from the palace!"
"As for the Suihou Pearl, Tai'a Sword, and Immortal's Knees left by the Mistress, these are all supreme treasures of the Qin royal family and proof of your identity!"
After saying this, Uncle Gen also breathed a sigh of relief.
This was the secret he had hidden from Lin Tian for many years, and now he could finally reveal it.
After speaking, he seemed to have completed his mission and was a little weak.
And Lin Tian, as he had predicted, accepted it quickly.
"So... it really is the Qin royal family. But this royal family's identity is a bit too prominent!"
"But does this mean... I can truly change the destiny of Great Qin? Change the destiny of the world?"
The greatness of Great Qin was undeniable, but Great Qin also had too many regrets.
Standardizing written script, standardizing wheel gauges, and unifying the world were acts that truly united the realm.
But Great Qin's demise after only two generations was truly regrettable.
Not long after the world was pacified, it fell into war again, which was a life of suffering for the people of Great Qin.
Not to mention, although Great Qin was unified, outside of Great Qin, there were still vast and fertile lands waiting for Great Qin to conquer.
