Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

Fang La's entry into Huguan was primarily for missionary work.

After all, there are already a bunch of small bandit groups inside Huguan, so we'll take as many as we can.

Ren Yuan and Wang Qing, on the other hand, stayed behind to be stationed outside the pass.

"Brother, things are a bit tricky with Wang Qing."

Sun An took the initiative to come over and find Ren Yuan.

"It's alright. This guy is like an eel, slippery than anyone else. As long as we keep things mysterious, he won't cause any trouble for us."

Wang Qing is the kind of guy who won't act until he sees a clear benefit, and he's extremely afraid of losing his life.

“Okay, but brother, that person next to Wang Qing was very strong. I’m no match for him right now.”

Sun An was very serious.

"You mean Du Xue? It's alright. No matter how strong he is, he's still just one person. Besides, the difference between you and him shouldn't be that big, right? If all else fails, I'll team up with you. We should be able to fight him to a draw, right?"

Ren Yuan waved his hand. Although Du Xue was a top-tier expert, Sun An was only a step away from being one. With Ren Yuan himself being a half-step top-tier expert, there shouldn't be any problem.

“Brother, he has already reached that realm. If we don’t have a way to restrain him, it will be very disadvantageous for us. Even if the two of us attack together, at most we can only hold him off, not keep him here. Brother, you must not underestimate the difference in realms.”

“If he fights desperately, even if my brother and I join forces, we might still end up in danger.”

"Wow, I really didn't know that. Is there such a big difference between the top level and the half-step level?"

Ren Yuan was somewhat surprised; he had thought they should be able to fight.

“If my brother, Lin, and I join forces, we should be able to withstand his attacks. But it would be a disadvantage for us to be tied down by him alone. Don’t forget that Tian Hu and Fang La are also eyeing us covetously.”

"So what do you mean?"

Ren Yuan also became serious.

"Brother, Instructor Lin, and Master Lu, please take turns sparring with me right away, really seriously. I have a feeling that after this, I can break through to the pinnacle! Once I reach the pinnacle, you can rest assured that Du Xue will be in my hands. Holding him off one-on-one won't be a problem. That way, we won't be at a disadvantage!"

Sun An and Bian Xiang, along with Ren Yuan's two subordinates who were closest to reaching the pinnacle of their cultivation, were on the verge of breaking through at any moment.

They are all constantly accumulating strength, hoping to lay a more solid and perfect foundation.

Normally, they can wait for the right time to become top-tier generals, and even among the top-tier generals, they will be among the strongest.

But now the situation has changed. Du Xue's presence is always a threat to all the military generals. In order to prevent Liangshan from suffering losses in this alliance meeting, Sun An decided to break through ahead of schedule!

He's saved up for so long anyway, so he's not afraid!

"Doing this will cause problems on your path of martial arts."

Ren Yuan knew, of course, that Sun An was doing this for the greater good, planning to force a breakthrough and, if necessary, exchange one for one with Du Xue.

However, the consequence of this is that Sun An's martial arts may be somewhat imperfect. Even if he reaches the pinnacle, he may be one of the weaker ones among the pinnacles for a period of time, and it will be difficult for him to make up for it.

"It's alright. As the stronghold becomes more and more prosperous, will there be any need to worry about not having something to compensate me? Even if I broke through to this peak realm by force, I've accumulated so much over time, so it's not a big deal if I lose a little bit. Brother, please find me more tonics and have Doctor An prescribe them. I can take them for a year or two, and then I'll make up for it!"

Sun An, however, didn't seem to care much. He laughed and said, "If it weren't for you and Brother Shi Qian, I would have died along with Master Guanghui at Shizipo. Would I have had the chance to break through today? Don't worry, Brother, I, Sun An, am not the kind of person who would do something that would cause me to go mad! I'm still waiting to help you fulfill your ideals!"

"When you become a top expert, or even surpass that, you can protect me."

Sun An's words left Ren Yuan speechless, so he could only stand up and keep patting Sun An's shoulder.

"I'll immediately send a message to the mountain stronghold to buy some high-quality ginseng. Once we get back, I'll have the divine physician nourish you first!"

"Wait inside a bit longer, and once we get the Korean ginseng back, you can eat it like it's food! No matter how many years it's aged!"

"Hehe, okay, then I'll wait for that day."

Sun An smiled brightly, feeling that he had done his best.

Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen soon arrived at the stronghold and were shocked to hear about Sun An's plan.

The Sun brothers are truly exceptional in their loyalty!

"Amitabha, Brother Sun An, from now on, I will save any good things I get for you."

Lu Zhishen recited a Buddhist chant, and Sun An's actions filled Lu Zhishen with admiration!

"Brother Sun An, I, Lin Chong, admire what you have done!"

Lin Chong also greatly admired Sun An. What military generals pursue is nothing more than the realm of martial arts and making achievements. In Liangshan, the latter is not a concern, there are plenty of opportunities, so everyone is pursuing the former.

Didn't you see Mi Sheng sparring with people every day? Do you really think he's just bored and has nothing better to do?

By doing this, Sun An was essentially gambling with his future path in martial arts!

"What are you doing? I'm going to break through to a higher level, not to die."

Sun An laughed loudly: "Instructor Lin, Master Lu, after I break through, even if I have some innate deficiencies, I will still be ahead of you. I will be the number one master in Liangshan. You should be envious of me!"

This is Sun An! The unparalleled righteous dragon slayer!

Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen didn't say anything more. Since that was the case, they would cooperate with him fully!

……

"Leader, why are we following the example of Liangshan and not entering the pass?"

Some people on Wang Qing's side didn't quite understand his actions.

“You don’t understand. Tian Hu is clearly here to become the boss. Fang La is always acting strangely and is annoying to look at. Moreover, both of these families have some minor conflicts with us. So if we enter the pass, we are likely to be targeted.”

Wang Qing analyzed it in a very casual way.

"As for Liangshan, their territory has no overlap with ours, and we have no history of conflict with them. The saying goes, 'befriend distant states and attack nearby ones,' so we can try to befriend them. That way, if trouble arises in the future, we won't be without allies."

"The Alliance Leader is wise!"

Everyone praised Wang Qing, feeling that their boss was different from others and had brains!

Unlike the other three, one was a charlatan, one a brute, and one a vulgar person.

Will Tian Hu and Fang La really reach an agreement?

Du Xue was fairly clear-headed; he had some questions.

“As long as Fang Shisan doesn’t cause trouble on Tian Hu’s territory and gives Tian Hu some incentives, their agreement will be finalized. My concern is that these two will join forces against us. After all, Boss Du, your influence is too great now. This is our advantage, but it’s also where we are vulnerable to being targeted.”

Wang Qing is actually quite intelligent!

"But leader, although Boss Du is very powerful, the Liangshan forces are not bad either. If we cooperate with them, we must be careful that they don't become too powerful and we can't control them."

As the military advisor accompanying the army this time, Liu Min attached far more importance to Liangshan than the other two.

"To be able to lead such a formidable cavalry, Ren Yuan of Liangshan must have quite an appetite. Alliance Leader, we must be careful."

"It's alright. With Boss Du here, they can't cause any trouble. The top level is the top level. Below the top level, they are all ants, right, Boss Du?"

Wang Qing looked extremely smug, as if he were the only one in the world who possessed a deadly weapon!
