The Supreme Wild Young Master-Chapter 597: Alliance of Various Forces_1

"How can I explain this to you!"

Zhang Xian laughed, "The state has its own defenses, doesn’t our sect need some too? In case of emergencies, formations can help us withstand them."

Xiao Nan curiously asked, "The formations you mentioned, are they like the ones in mythological TV series that can autonomously defend and attack?"

"Exactly."

Zhang Xian nodded, "With this, our sect is safe. Otherwise, who can guarantee that God’s spokesperson won’t attack?"

"God’s spokesperson wants to attack us?" Xiao Nan asked with furrowed eyebrows.

Zhang Xian said, "I guess I’m their main enemy. Just because they don’t want to attack me now doesn’t mean they won’t later. We have to be on guard against them."

"True."

Xiao Nan said, "We’ve just started to develop, and we only have a few people. If God’s spokesperson attacks us now, we won’t be able to resist."

"Take a look around, I need to get to work." Zhang Xian laughed and was about to leave.

Xiao Nan caught Zhang Xian and asked, "Can’t I go with you?"

"I am just digging some holes and burying things. Why do you want to tag along?" Zhang Xian said, "I think you should walk around the sect and see if there’s anything inappropriate."

Xiao Nan gave him a sideways glance and asked, "Are you afraid I’ll steal your formation techniques?"

"How could that be?"

Zhang Xian pinched Xiao Nan’s buttocks and said, "Do we have secrets between us? What don’t you know about me?"

"Then let’s go!" Xiao Nan hugged Zhang Xian’s arm and laughed.

After a bitter laugh, Zhang Xian, with his arm around Xiao Nan’s waist, walked off in one direction.

Before long, they came to a building under construction. At the corner of the wall, he dug a hole, placed a fist-size jade into the hole, and then covered it with soil.

After watching for a while, Xiao Nan asked, "Zhang Xian, are you setting up a formation? It looks kind of strange to me."

"People who don’t understand, of course, won’t understand. Even if I explain it to you, you might not get it."

Zhang Xian said, "Here’s the thing! The function of the formation follows a certain trajectory. What I just buried is the formation foundation. As long as the foundation is arranged according to the formation’s rules and connects the foundations and adds a formation core, the formation would be complete. Then, I can control the entire formation via the core."

Xiao Nan curiously asked, "So anyone can set up a formation?"

"Who told you that?"

Zhang Xian said, "The jade I just buried has the formation etched into it. Ordinary jade won’t work. And, to control the formation, one has to be a cultivator. Ordinary people can’t do it."

"I see!"

Xiao Nan, holding onto Zhang Xian’s arm, asked, "In the future, you will teach us how to use formations, right? We are also cultivators!"

"Absolutely."

Zhang Xian said, "When I am not at home, you guys will be in charge of the formation."

"Uh-huh..."

Xiao Nan clapped her hands and laughed, "Hurry up and finish setting up the formation, then let me take a look and play around with it."

"Uh, play with it?"

Zhang Xian said, "Once the formation is activated, it’s no joke. If not handled properly, it could be lethal. Can it be played with casually?"

"How will we learn if we don’t try?" Xiao Nan asked.

Zhang Xian laughed, "Don’t worry, I will teach you. Formation is difficult to set up but easy to control. I promise you will learn quickly once I explain."

...

A day’s time passed in setting up formations.

When Zhang Xian and Xiao Nan returned to Lingxiao Manor, it was just in time for dinner. The aroma filled the entire hall.

"Zhang Xian, Sister Nan, you’re back?"

Dong Qian came out of the kitchen with dishes, coincidentally running into Zhang Xian and Xiao Nan.

"Hehe!"

Zhang Xian chuckled, "Seems like I came back at the perfect time, getting a meal as soon as I step in the door."

"Yes, dinner is ready," Dong Qian nodded with a smile.

Mo Shaoyun glanced at Zhang Xian and asked, "How is everything at the sect? No problems, right? Currently, the sect is our biggest project."

Zhang Xian said, "Everything is fine there. No problems. I’m at ease with you guys watching over things."

"Shaoyun, let me tell you."

Xiao Nan approached her with a smile, "Zhang Xian set up a large formation at the sect that can encircle the entire island. If there’s an enemy invasion, we only need to activate the formation."

"Formation?" Mo Shaoyun didn’t understand very well.

Yao Rao, Dong Qian, and Zhu Qing also looked curious. They knew the word, but it was their first real exposure to it.

"Follow me, and I’ll teach you how to use the formation," Zhang Xian chuckled.

Upon hearing this, the ladies, full of anticipation, followed Zhang Xian upstairs.

Since meeting Zhang Xian, they had been exposed to many things they had never thought about before. Now they knew about the formation, which intrigued them greatly.

They knew that whatever Zhang Xian brought out was anything but ordinary. Once learned, it would add a new skill to their repertoire.

...

That night, all was silent as the world lay deep in sleep.

"Ding ding ding..."

Suddenly, a cell phone ringtone sounded in a room in the Lingxiao Villa.

Zhang Xian took out his phone, answered it and asked, "Old Man Han, what’s up with you calling me this late? You trying to keep people from sleeping?"

"I just got done working, alright?"

Zhang Xian’s mouth twitched unnaturally several times. He said, " Out with it! You seeking me out at this hour can’t mean anything good."

"Well, geez, why you always gotta assume the worst when I contact you? this time, I don’t want you to do anything. I just wanted to share some news with you. Is that so wrong?"

Zhang Xian asked, "What news do you have for me?"

"The Ancient Sect and God’s spokesperson are at each other’s throats. Several battles have already taken place, and the Ancient Sect has seized quite a few of God’s spokesperson’s strongholds."

Zhang Xian laughed bitterly and replied, "Old man, I already knew about this. This isn’t exactly breaking news to me; I heard about it before you did."

"You already knew? Does this mean you’re in contact with the Ancient Sect?"

Zhang Xian replied, "Of course, I’m in contact with the Ancient Sect. They might be a mystery to you, but they’re no big deal to me!"

"Haha, not bad, kiddo. You’re really moving up in the world."

Zhang Xian retorted indignantly, "What do you mean by that, old man? When have I ever accomplished anything less?"

"Haha, OK, I was wrong. Seeing as you’re already aware of the situation, I’ll drop it. However, our Skynet and the Ancient Sect have teamed up, along with some agents from other countries, to give God’s spokesperson a heavy blow. As a member of Skynet, don’t you think you should be part of this exciting event?"

Zhang Xian exclaimed, "Hey, hadn’t you just said you didn’t need me to do anything? Why now you want me to stick my nose into it? Are you messing with me?"

"Well... it’s not like it’s a big deal, right? I’m only asking you to cooperate, nothing to do with missions and the like. If you can’t even manage this, then your reputation will be wasted."

Zhang Xian replied, "Sorry, but I don’t particularly care about my reputation. I’m not interested in such things."

"Who says you’re not well-known? Within Skynet, you’re quite the star. Everyone’s talking about you! Regarding this matter, quite a few people from Skynet will be participating. If you, a celebrity of Skynet, don’t attend, wouldn’t that disappoint our Skynet members? How could you be so heartless?"

Zhang Xian retorted, "Old man, you can stop with the theatrics. I won’t fall for it. If the Ancient Sect and other countries’ agents are planning to take out God’s spokesperson, it has nothing to do with me. I’m not going to muddy the waters, much less knowingly throw myself into the fire."

"You’re not getting involved with God’s spokesperson?"

Zhang Xian replied, "It’s not that I’m not getting involved, but it’s not the right time. Just wait, old man! When the time comes to act, I won’t hold back. That’s it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone, not giving Old Man Han a chance to nag.

The Ancient Sect and God’s spokesperson are at odds. As a country, it’s not easy to take direct action against God’s spokesperson, and he knows that Skynet and the agents of other countries will not be idle.

Among all the powers, Huaxia’s Ancient Sect is undoubtedly a major player. With the Ancient Sect and God’s spokesperson at each other’s throats, how could other nations pass up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

However, their fights are their own business; he won’t interfere. Even if the Ancient Sect suffers heavy losses, it has nothing to do with him.

What he needs to do now is wait. Firstly, to assess God’s spokesperson’s strength, and secondly, to let the haughty Ancient Sect take a hit. Otherwise, they’ll be too difficult to control.

...

In Yanjing, at the Skynet headquarters, in one of the offices.

Listening to the busy tone on the cellphone, Old Man Han’s mouth twitched rhythmically. Zhang Xian, that bastard, dared to hang up on him.

"Grandpa, did he decline?" Han Xiangyu, holding her cheeks, asked.

With a wry smile, Old Man Han replied, "You know what kind of person he is, don’t you? If he’s not inclined to do something, no amount of persuasion from me can change that."

"That’s infuriating," Han Xiangyu ground her teeth, took out her cellphone, and said, "I’ll call him. If he doesn’t agree, I’ll pester him until hell freezes over. I refuse to believe that he can dodge me forever."

"You think he’ll pay any attention to you?" Old Man Han didn’t want to dampen his granddaughter’s spirits, but it was a fact.

Han Xiangyu looked at Old Man Han, unable to articulate her thoughts.

Remembering how Zhang Xian used to treat her without giving her any face, she felt so angry that she could gnash her teeth. She wished she could fly to Tiandu right away and give Zhang Xian a good thrashing.

"Hehe, just let it go," Old Man Han chuckled.

Han Xiangyu said, "Just let it go? Now that they’ve teamed up, I think we should seize the opportunity and uproot God’s spokesperson completely."

"Girl, you’re oversimplifying things," Old Man Han chuckled. "Moreover, I know what kind of person Zhang Xian is. He certainly won’t stand by and do nothing about this. He’s just waiting for the right moment."

"What kind of moment?" Han Xiangyu asked.

Smiling, Old Man Han shook his head, "That, you’ll have to ask him. I can’t guess."
