The most intelligent general in the world

Chapter 201: The might of the formation is truly daunting

In this vast cultivation continent, most of the leaders of various forces have mediocre cultivation abilities, and their situation is worrying in this turbulent era.

When there are too many people, there are many thoughts, especially in these temporary alliances, each with its own ulterior motives. Among them, there are greedy people who want to gain benefits in the chaos, timid people who are afraid of risks and shrink back, and some people who are lucky and think that although Zhang Liang speaks wildly, he dare not really take action against so many forces.

However, no matter what the speculation is, there are always some people who are unwilling to face the eerie sword hanging high in the air again.

"Master Zhang, we, the Xiang clan of the Chu State, have no ill intentions. We came here to discuss great matters with you, Master Zhang. Now that it is inconvenient for you, Master Zhang, we will leave immediately. We hope that there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future." A big man with a face as cold as iron stepped forward and saluted Zhang Liang with a fist.

"The Xiang family will remember this in our hearts. If you have no ill intentions, you should leave as soon as possible. I will treat today's incident as if nothing happened. If there is a transaction in the future, I am willing to discuss it together." Zhang Liang nodded slightly in response.

"Goodbye!" The big man clasped his fists again, led more than a dozen followers through the gap in the formation on the mountain, and walked quickly down the mountain.

After they left the formation, a young man from the Xiang clan asked in confusion, "Uncle, why did you leave in such a hurry? We may not be incapable of fighting, right?"

"How can we win with such a motley crowd and divided hearts? What's the point even if we conquer this place? Not to mention killing Zhang Liang, even if we succeed, have you ever thought about the serious consequences that will follow? If we don't get rid of Zhang Liang, how can he join forces with us? He will only choose to surrender to the Qin Dynasty and do his best to help the Qin Dynasty counterattack us!" the big man retorted in a deep voice.

"Uncle, but if we retreat like this, I'm afraid that other forces in the six countries will be dissatisfied!" the young man said worriedly.

"Dissatisfied? No problem! After we leave, more forces will choose to withdraw, as the saying goes, the law cannot hold everyone responsible. Besides, how can my Xiang family be afraid of just a few forces? What's more, we are the first to withdraw, which has given Zhang Liang a way out, which is enough." The big man said decisively.

As expected, Zhang Liang was quite fond of the Xiang family's actions. After all, they had rescued him from the siege.

After the Xiang family left, Lord Xinling Wei Wuji bowed with emotion and said, "May I ask, Master Zhang, is the deal I discussed with you earlier still valid?"

"A gentleman's promise is worth more than a thousand pieces of gold, so it is naturally effective, but it is only limited to the current transaction. Because of your action against my grandfather, from now on, Qiyilou will no longer have any dealings with you." Zhang Liang replied in a flat tone.

"In that case, I'll take my leave!" Wei Wuji sighed lightly, bowed politely, and then led several of his men away.

Wei Wuji knew that Zhang Liang had already made up his mind to kill him. If he did not evacuate in time, a brutal battle would surely ensue. As Han Fei's "accomplice", he knew that he would become Zhang Liang's main target. He had already found it difficult to resist the long sword in the air several times. The current goal had not been achieved, so why should he sacrifice his life here?

He understood that only by retreating could Zhang Liang fulfill his previous transaction promise; otherwise, if he stayed, not only would his life be in danger, but revenge would also follow.

This cunning old fox knew how to advance and retreat, and was able to trade with Zhang Liang to obtain the elixir of longevity. He had achieved his primary goal. As for the future, who can predict it?

As Wei Wuji left, many people left after exchanging greetings. However, some people mistakenly thought Zhang Liang was cowardly and could be bullied, and challenged him. However, Zhang Liang ignored them all and concentrated on controlling the formation, absorbing the power of heaven and earth, and the number of long swords in the air continued to increase.

Some daring practitioners tried to take advantage of the chaos to break into other areas of the Taoist temple. For example, a few people tried to sneak to the back mountain when Zhang Liang was not prepared. However, before they could take a few steps, they were killed by Zhang Liang with the power of the formation.

Time passed quietly, and there were only thirty breaths left in the half-hour grace period given by Zhang Liang.

"Everyone, there are still thirty breaths left. Anyone who doesn't leave will be my mortal enemy!" Zhang Liang's indifferent words echoed in the air, and the formation instantly became turbulent. Countless long swords seemed to droop a lot, less than ten feet away from the ground.

Hundreds of people originally gathered, but now more than a hundred have left, and more than ten were killed by Zhang Liang. Many of those who stayed behind have begun to waver. Seeing the changes in the formation, dozens of people decided to evacuate quickly.

It has to be admitted that with Zhang Liang's repeated attacks and the display of the power of the long swords condensed by the formation, there are very few people who are really confident of withstanding those long sword attacks.

The long sword floating in the air, a single one might only be equivalent to a full-strength attack from a Great Zhoutian level expert, but when so many long swords were fired at the same time, even a master-level expert would not be able to escape unscathed.

Especially before, there was a master-level cultivator who tried to sneak into the back mountain, and Zhang Liang directly mobilized dozens of long swords to combine into one, and killed him with one sword. Among the people present now, even if there are masters, there are not many who can withstand the attack of that sword.

The power created by the formation is truly intimidating.
