The most intelligent general in the world

Chapter 200: Fight or not fight?

"You broke into the formation without an invitation. Do you think you should give an explanation?"

Zhang Liang's eyes were like a thousand-year-old ice as he glanced at the crowd gathered opposite him. Behind him, three hundred elite guards drew their swords and strung their crossbows. The sword energy gathered in the air was like an endless galaxy, which was daunting and sent chills down one's spine.

Xunzi remained silent and was nervously checking Han Fei's injuries. Zhang Liang's attack not only cut off Han Fei's arm, but also shook his internal organs with his sharp sword energy. If the sword energy in his body was not dispelled quickly, the consequences would be disastrous.

However, even though Han Fei was seriously injured, his eyes were sharper. He stared at Zhang Liang and said coldly: "This matter has come to this, what else is there to say? Since you have decided to join the Qin State, you are a thorn in our eyes. Today is a battle of life and death. If we take your life and seize your alchemy and refining secrets, we can also accomplish great things!"

"What a silver-tongued fellow! It seems that you are planning to win over everyone to perish together with you!" Zhang Liang looked at Xunzi sarcastically and asked, "Xun Kuang, what do you want to say?"

Chisongzi also had cold eyes and stared at Xunzi closely, as if he would attack at any time.

Faced with the current deadlock, Xun Kuang was in a dilemma. He came here only to help Han Fei get rid of the formation dilemma and had no intention of fighting with others. However, the reality was that Han Fei was seriously injured and he was also injured in the conflict. No matter from which angle, he was at a moral disadvantage - first he saved people regardless of the rules, and then he broke the formation without authorization, which obviously violated many taboos.

You can’t fight!

If Xun Kuang continued to attack, he would not only face Chisongzi's obstruction, but he might not gain any advantage, and his injury might even worsen. If the conflict was intensified, the hatred between Tianzong and Confucianism would intensify. In the past, he might have been able to bear it, but now that Chisongzi has been promoted, Xun Kuang no longer dared to easily violate Tianzong's bottom line.

And not fighting won't work either!

If Xunzi chose to stand idly by, Han Fei would probably die, and the more than 300 nobles and powerful officials from various countries mobilized by Han Fei would also suffer heavy losses. At that time, both Confucianism and Han Fei would be isolated and helpless.

"Xun Kuang, if you leave now, my grudge with Confucianism will be written off from now on!" Zhang Liang's voice was as cold as frost.

"What if I don't leave?" A trace of anger flashed across Xun Kuang's face. In many years, he had never been called by his name like this.

"If you don't want to leave, then try to see if you have the strength to defeat me. If not, the Alchemy Shop and the Divine Weapon Pavilion will permanently issue a bounty to hunt down your Confucian disciples in the future!" Zhang Liang's cold words were like a biting chill.

When the people behind Xunzi heard this, they couldn't help but take a deep breath. If they really did that, it wouldn't take long for Confucianism to be seriously damaged and become the target of public criticism. The end result would undoubtedly be a situation of no end.

The flame of anger burned in Xun Kuang's chest. At this moment, he understood that he came to Han Kingdom not to represent Confucianism, but to act on his own. Because high-level cultivators like them usually don't easily get involved in ordinary fights.

Xun Kuang originally thought that as long as he helped Han Fei to unlock the formation restrictions and let the various people contacted by Han Fei enter, it would be enough to force Zhang Liang to compromise and join their alliance. In his mind, he might not even have a chance to show up, and Han Fei alone was enough to convince Zhang Liang.

However, times have changed and everything did not develop in the direction Xunzi had expected. Instead, it went out of control.

"Stay or go, it's your choice. I'll give you a quarter of an hour to think about it!"

Zhang Liang raised a sarcastic smile, then turned his gaze to the more than 300 nobles behind Xun Kuang.

On the surface, these people did not have any traces of the Hundred Schools of Thought, and they were all powerful people from the six countries. However, it was unknown whether there were other forces mixed in secretly.

"Breaking into the battlefield without an invitation is a thief's behavior. If you want to visit, just hand in the invitation. Why bother to come here?"

"I'll give you half an hour. For those who choose to leave, this matter will be over. And for those who still stay here, they will be regarded as my enemies. When dealing with enemies, the only way is to fight to the death!" Zhang Liang declared in a cold tone.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Liang waved his hand, and the formation set up next to him immediately cracked open, leading directly to the outside of the mountain.

"Master Zhang, we came here because we heard that you were interested in joining us, but we didn't expect such a change to happen. We are deeply ashamed. But Master Zhang, is it really safe for you to open this passage? What if you suddenly control the formation to attack us while we are passing through? How about Master Zhang completely open all the formations, take back those flying swords, and let us go down the mountain safely?"

An old man in gorgeous robes stood up and asked in a deep voice.

"Hmph, either leave or fight, there is no other choice!" Zhang Liang glanced at the old man, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. He secretly memorized the other party's appearance. If a war broke out later, this person would definitely be his first target.

The old man in fancy clothes was frightened by Zhang Liang's gaze. He felt that the aura of the swords above his head was extremely terrifying. Even if they had more than 300 people, if all these flying swords came out at the same time, no one would be able to resist...
