Chapter 191: Chapter 100: Breaking Army Raises Troops, Shaking Light Over the Sky_2

So, he was waiting for Li Guanyi’s response.

Li Guanyi said, "You plan to find Yuwen Lie?"

Breaking Army slightly smiled, "General Yuwen is strong, the divine general under heaven."

"Between a strong person and a weak one, everyone knows who to choose, right?"

The youth suddenly laughed. He slightly moved his wrist, waving the Battle Halberd in his hand. The sharp blade cut through the air, emitting a sound like the roar of a ferocious tiger. As the black Divine Weapon swung, it seemed as if a fierce tiger was beside him, clawing the air. The handsome youth actually took on an imposing and domineering demeanor.

And this weapon was right before him, as if it could sever his throat at any moment, yet Breaking Army still smiled gently.

Finally, Li Guanyi rested the weapon on the ground and raised his head to look at Breaking Army and said,

"Then, I also have a question I want to ask you."

"With your personality, would you prefer to assist a divine general already famous under heaven, serving as a mere embellishment; or would you rather assist a ’weaker’ person, then achieve a feat that would make history?"

The expression in Breaking Army’s eyes slightly hardened.

The youth before him smiled slightly, "You are a proud person, Breaking Army."

"How can someone like you be content to lurk beneath a divine general under heaven?"

"You crave fame and recognition, aspire to showcase your talents, rather than being a mere subordinate under a divine general. Only a power labeled as ’weak’ can really demonstrate a strategist’s ambition. Only the most challenging beginnings can ignite the flame in your heart, right?"

The smile on Breaking Army’s face gradually disappeared, his gentle expression withdrew as he faced the youth who had pierced through his mental state with a single sentence. Li Guanyi, holding the Battle Halberd, suddenly exerted force, and the tiger’s roar intensified suddenly, the wind lifted, and the youth’s hair fluttered.

Then there was a loud screech.

The Battle Halberd was planted into the ground, cracking the blue stone and blasting an open pit, its dark handle standing as a barrier between Li Guanyi and Breaking Army.

"Sir, you may take this Battle Halberd away now."

He withdrew his hand.

Breaking Army heard this sentence.

For the first time, he felt slightly caught off guard.

Li Guanyi replied, "My elders told me that Divine Weapons are merely aids; it is people who truly create feats. It is because of its first owner that a Divine Weapon gains such great fame, not that those people become heroes through the Divine Weapon."

"If you intend to coerce me with a Divine Weapon, you might have miscalculated."

Breaking Army smiled and inquired, "Don’t you desire this weapon?"

General Xue’s legacy included secrets and the Breaking Cloud Sky-shattering Bow, which Li Guanyi cared about, yet wouldn’t allow himself to be controlled by others. He straightforwardly gave his answer, more freely and openly, "I do want it, but not now, not in this way. We’ve been out for a long time; it’s time to go back."

So, Breaking Army watched as the youth turned and walked away.

Li Guanyi pondered for a moment, turned his back to the young strategist, and waved his hand, saying,

"I’ll wait for you to think it through."

"And personally return this Battle Halberd to my hands."

Breaking Army then saw the youth turn around, not taking up the issue he had raised, but just leaving like that. This strategist, who had always been spontaneous since his emergence, looked at the Battle Halberd in front of him, fell silent, and after a while, he began to smile, the laughter gradually growing louder.

Eventually, Breaking Army burst into loud laughter.

Exhilarating!

At his eyes and eyebrows, finally, there was a three-point spirit like an unsheathed sharp sword.

This was their first real meeting.

Clutching the Battle Halberd for support, Breaking Army laughed as he murmured Li Guanyi’s question:

"To assist the powerful, becoming an insignificant follower."

"Or to start from scratch willing to become a famous strategist through the ages, such questions, such questions."

For these spirited young heroes, these were hardly questions at all.

When they met, the youth used a rhetorical question to ignite the flames in Breaking Army’s heart, helping him make a choice. The yet-to-be-famous strategist caressed the Divine Weapon, thinking of the young man’s departing figure, with flames seemingly burning in his eyes. He closed his eyes and whispered softly:

"Such is the charisma of a hero and overlord..."

"Is this what you all refer to as the personal charm of a hero?"

"Five hundred years ago and eight hundred years before that, when the original Breaking Army met the White Tiger Sect, was it also this feeling? Haha, they must have felt the same, right?"

When Seventh Prince of the Turkic came out and saw that the battle halberd, still cherished by this gentleman, was still there, and he seemed to have enjoyed the conversation, a smile on his lips and a sigh of relief in his heart. Since leaving the grassland, this gentleman had always kept the weapon inside his carriage.

Seventh Prince wasn’t naive; he was a brave king of the grasslands and had seen many conspiracies and slaughters.

So he guessed that once this gentleman’s Battle Halberd found its destined recipient, it would be time for the gentleman to leave him. His hand kept gripping the weapon, now relaxed, he smiled and said, "Did you enjoy your chat with an old acquaintance?"

Breaking Army noticed Seventh Prince’s subtle moves and acuteness.

And his longing for the Battle Halberd.

All these actions, in other days, Breaking Army would just find Seventh Prince acute, but now compared to the openness of the young man just now, it rather seemed petty, lacking the demeanor of an overlord. Breaking Army smiled and said, "A chat? Yes, quite enjoyable."
