Chu Tian looked at the monster before him, its eyes like copper bells.
The eyes were entirely black.
There were no whites, just black pupils that filled the entire eye.
"I'm asking you again, was it you who made such a huge commotion up there?" the monster raised its head.
*Kaka ka...*
How many years had it been since this guy moved?
His bones must be rusted solid.
"The commotion wasn't me... it was an annoying crow that was tearing down your house!"
Chu Tian's eyes darted as he spoke these words.
"Crow? I detest crows the most..." this ox-headed monster.
Upon hearing Chu Tian's words, it snorted, white mist spewing from its nostrils and mouth.
Chu Tian didn't think it was just hot air, as the immense aura pushed towards him.
A bone-chilling cold permeated the air, causing Chu Tian to shiver.
It was worth noting that the perception of temperature in this game world was almost zero.
There was only frost damage, which required frost resistance to counteract.
Without frost resistance, frost damage could freeze you solid.
But even when frozen, you wouldn't feel much cold.
However, what Chu Tian felt now was different.
He had been affected by the creature's breath.
He felt a chilling cold emanating from his soul!
However, from its breath, Chu Tian had gained some good news.
That was, this guy seemed to truly detest crows.
Chu Tian's eyes flickered.
"What's the point of you hating crows? Your house was just ransacked, and you didn't even dare to fart about it!"
As Chu Tian spoke, his tone was one of extreme disdain.
Even as he said this, Chu Tian's heart was pounding.
What if he angered this guy and it took its rage out on him?
But there was nothing he could do. The creature was still seated on that throne.
It spoke of hating crows but showed no reaction.
Moreover, yesterday, he hadn't seen any labels above its head.
In the Heavenly Dao world, all monsters and spirits had names floating above them.
Even some of the extremely high-level ones would directly display their quality and level.
Therefore, Chu Tian felt that this guy was an anomaly.
Furthermore, its aura was not weak.
It should be able to cause some trouble for that crow.
Finding a hired hand was better than rushing forward and getting himself killed...
"Brat... you're seeking death!" The guy suddenly raised his arm and slammed it onto the armrest of the throne.
*Hualala... Peng...*
Chu Tian was startled and quickly dodged backward.
But as soon as his body moved, he saw the very short chain on its hand.
This guy was actually chained to this throne.
"Oh dear, quite temperamental, aren't we? Go up there if you dare! Go and kill that crow! You're banging on tables with me... are you trying to scare mice?"
Seeing this, Chu Tian's courage surged!
So, this guy was a prisoner.
He hadn't expected that this so-called General's Hall would contain such a monster.
Suddenly, Chu Tian had the urge to blow it up.
Since this guy couldn't leave that spot, could he wear it down with ranged attacks?
"Brat... do you know who I am, to dare speak to me like this?"
This guy, after being rebuked by Chu Tian, was taken aback at first.
Then, it rolled its sightless eyes and stared at Chu Tian.
Its words carried a sense of arrogance.
"A prisoner!"
Chu Tian rolled his eyes and glared back.
"Prisoner... haha... prisoner... hahahahaha..."
Upon hearing Chu Tian's words, this guy, perhaps driven to meningitis by anger,
Began to laugh maniacally, even laughing while banging on the armrest of the throne.
The sounds of *hualala... guangdangdang* echoed.
"Hey... are you out of your mind?" Chu Tian was no longer afraid now.
"My surname is Zhao, my given name is Zheng. Others call me the Ancestral Dragon!
Never mind, it's likely no one in this world knows my name!
Hmm... considering that for over two thousand years no one has spoken to me, you are the first. I shall spare your life!"
The person stopped laughing and spoke calmly, as if bestowing a great favor upon Chu Tian.
"Pfft..." Chu Tian couldn't help but almost burst out laughing.
"2000 years... Zhao Zheng? Ancestral Dragon... hahaha, why don't you just say you're Qin Shi Huang? Hahaha..."
This time, Chu Tian laughed so hard that tears streamed down his face.
"Hmm? You know me? You're not from this world? You're from Blue Star?"
As Chu Tian was uncontrollably laughing, the one who called himself Zhao Zheng.
Suddenly stood up, his arms clasped behind his back, the iron chains stretched taut.
A *kaka ka* sound emanated from him.
Countless cracks appeared on his body.
Due to the violent movement, beneath these cracks, a dark, lustrous light was revealed.
This guy's body was covered in soil, having not moved for who knows how many years.
It had covered him...
Even a small piece had fallen from the horns on his head.
Only then did Chu Tian realize that what he thought were horns was actually a helmet shaped like wild ox horns.
His feet could only shuffle forward a little more than half a step, with iron chains binding him to the throne behind him.
"Ah?" Chu Tian was stunned.
A tidal wave of shock surged through his heart.
The moment the person before him uttered the word "Blue Star,"
Chu Tian was certain of his identity.
This guy might really be Qin Shi Huang.
"You... are you truly Ying Zheng?"
Ying, surnamed Zhao, given name Zheng, also known as Zhao Zheng, the Ancestral Dragon, son of King Zhuangxiang of Qin and Lady Zhao.
Legend has it that Qin Shi Huang lived in the state of Zhao until he was thirteen years old.
And he consistently used his mother's surname.
Therefore, there is no concrete evidence for this, but it has always been a saying among the populace.
Now, hearing it from this guy, who called himself Zhao Zheng, it was just like the民间 saying.
"It seems you truly are from Blue Star!"
Zhao Zheng slowly sat down, no longer looking at Chu Tian.
As if his thoughts had drifted far away.
Chu Tian remained silent, his mind also in a state of confusion.
What was going on?
Didn't Qin Shi Huang die?
Why was this guy here?
He mentioned "this world"?
Could the world he was referring to be the Path of Heavenly Condemnation?
A series of questions arose in Chu Tian's mind.
"What is Blue Star like now?" Zhao Zheng's voice was calm.
When he asked Chu Tian this question, the arrogance from before was gone.
"Blue Star... how should I put it! After your time, over 2000 years of development, several industrial revolutions, the world now presents a scene of highly advanced technology!"
"I'm asking about the Great Qin!" Zhao Zheng spoke again.
Chu Tian hesitated.
"Speak freely!" Zhao Zheng urged.
"Well... history records that the Qin Dynasty fell six years after your death!"
Chu Tian spoke tentatively, fearing that this tyrannical ruler would erupt in anger again, and he wasn't sure if he had any long-range attacks. This was why he had just said he was sparing his life.
But Qin Shi Huang was known for his cruelty, and breaking promises was commonplace!
"I died, and the kingdom fell six years later? Useless... I knew they were all good-for-nothings!
Continue speaking..." Zhao Zheng wasn't as agitated as Chu Tian had imagined!
"In history, it is said that you died of illness in 210 BC. In 209 BC, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang raised an uprising, and the world responded. Liu Bang and Xiang Yu raised armies in the Huai River region to resist Qin.
In the end, the Qin state was defeated and declared extinguished. In 202 BC, the Han Dynasty was established, with Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang as the first emperor!"
Chu Tian racked his brain for all the high school history he knew!
"Chen Sheng, Wu Guang? Han Gaozu Liu Bang? I haven't heard of them... they are all insignificant people!"
Zhao Zheng sat tilted on his throne, one hand propping his chin.
He murmured, as if trying to recall.
"Um... may I ask why you are here? History says you died of illness!"
Chu Tian hesitated, his mouth opening and closing several times before he finally couldn't help but ask.
"Died of illness? Foolish mortals... to believe such a tale! Heh heh..." Zhao Zheng's tone was one of contempt.
Chu Tian remained silent, awaiting his next words.
"Do you know what this throne I am sitting on is?" Zhao Zheng looked up at Chu Tian.
Chu Tian examined it from above. The throne looked like a piece of black jade.
Although the material seemed quite good, there was nothing particularly outstanding about it, only the extremely exaggerated design.
