"May I ask who you are, senior?" Zhang Yun asked telepathically.
The Star Realm expert replied, "I am Wu Yazi, Zhang Ning's master."
"I see." Zhang Yun felt a little relieved.
Long before Zhang Ning displayed his exceptional swordsmanship talent, Zhang Yun had already begun to suspect that behind Zhang Ning stood a master swordsman with profound knowledge.
Otherwise, no matter how strong Zhang Ning's natural talent was, without specialized guidance and training, it would be almost impossible for him to reach that level on his own.
To his surprise, Zhang Ning's master was actually a powerful expert at the Star Realm.
Zhang Ning must be very clear about what it means to be a Star Realm expert.
But he was still able to endure in the Zhang family with the most humble status, which shows how deep his obsession was.
It is true that Zhang Xiaotian is Zhang Ning's father's killer, but to a large extent, it also shows his loyalty to Zhang Zhentian and Zhang Yun.
With the help of Zhang Ning's master, Wu Yazi, Zhang Yun was able to focus on dealing with the immediate situation.
"Xiaotian, I don't recommend using the Heavenly Gang Realm to deal with Zhang Yun."
Han Shuangxue suddenly spoke up, saying, "That would cause unnecessary losses to the Zhang family."
"Senior Han, are you going to do it yourself?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhang Xiaotian's eyes. From Han Shuangxue's words, he could tell how much she valued Zhang Yun.
"Well, although I have a significant advantage in terms of cultivation level, it wouldn't be a bad idea for me to have a go at him."
Han Shuangxue's eyes fell on Zhang Yun, revealing a hint of killing intent, but more so, admiration.
Zhang Yun's achievement in reaching this point is indeed remarkable, but due to their differing stances, Han Shuangxue had no choice but to kill him.
"Is Senior Frost and Snow going to take action personally?"
Zhang Hao's eyes were filled with anticipation and excitement. It wasn't the Star Realm expert personally taking action that excited him, but rather the fact that if Han Shuangxue made a move, Zhang Yun would surely die.
In his heart, he only wished for Zhang Yun's death, and that would be enough.
"Wait a moment."
Just then, a woman wearing a cream-colored pleated long skirt slowly walked out from the crowd and said, "Zhang Yun is a friend of my Feng Hua Chamber of Commerce. If Patriarch Zhang would spare this little fellow for the sake of the Feng Hua Chamber of Commerce, I will definitely remember this favor from Patriarch Zhang."
Shangguan Hanlu?
Shangguan Hanlu's appearance caused a stir at the scene. Some people did not expect that the president of the Feng Hua Chamber of Commerce would plead for Zhang Yun.
"This is a matter between the Zhang family and we hope that Chairman Shangguan will not interfere."
Zhang Xiaotian was also quite surprised. Before this, there was no one in the Qin Kingdom who could get someone of Shangguan Hanlu's status to plead for him.
"I don't care what grudges you have between you, but I'm determined to protect this little guy."
Shangguan Hanlu spoke bluntly, showing no respect for Zhang Xiaotian, which caused Zhang Xiaotian to frown slightly.
This was the first time his facial expression had changed since he appeared.
Furthermore, his polite and respectful attitude towards Shangguan Hanlu is enough to prove that the Feng Hua Chamber of Commerce behind Shangguan Hanlu is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
"Sister Hanlu, I didn't expect to run into you here."
Zhang Yun, preoccupied with his feud with Zhang Xiaotian, hadn't noticed Shangguan Hanlu in the crowd before.
At this moment, Shangguan Hanlu stood up for him, and while he was gratified, he also had to re-evaluate Shangguan Hanlu.
This woman seems to be quite extraordinary.
"Little one, how have you been?" Shangguan Hanlu smiled like a spring flower. "Don't worry, as long as your sister is here, they won't dare to do anything to you."
"Miss Hanlu, in what capacity are you speaking on behalf of Zhang Yun?"
Zhang Xiaotian looked at Shangguan Hanlu and asked, "If Shangguan Hanlu intervenes in this matter with the power behind her, killing Zhang Yun will become more difficult."
"I represent the Supreme Guild."
Shangguan Hanlu responded slowly, causing Zhang Xiaotian's expression to change and his brows to furrow slightly.
Perhaps most people in the Qin Kingdom are unaware of the existence of the Supreme Guild, but Zhang Xiaotian clearly understands that the Supreme Guild is a very mysterious force.
Its influence is deeply entrenched, with branches all over the Great Shang Dynasty. It has connections with various forces, large and small, within the Great Shang Dynasty to varying degrees. Even the Holy Gate has to give it some leeway. It is indeed something that the Zhang family cannot compare to now.
Shangguan Hanlu just clearly stated that he represents the Supreme Guild, so Zhang Xiaotian has to consider the pros and cons and whether he should offend the Supreme Guild in order to eliminate Zhang Yun.
"Hanlu, you mustn't be foolish."
An aged voice rang out, and an ordinary-looking old woman with a wrinkled face walked out leaning on a cane. Her face was full of reproach, which made Shangguan Hanlu frown slightly and look rather displeased.
“That little guy is my friend, and I don’t want him to die here.”
"Have you forgotten the supreme organization's teachings? The supreme organization only cares about interests." The old woman scolded Shangguan Hanlu with exasperation.
"But Zhang Yun's..."
"No buts, give it back to me." The old woman's tone left no room for argument, but Shangguan Hanlu still refused to give up. "My body contains countless worlds..."
