Most of them had experienced firsthand just how powerful Jian Yunxiao was.
"The person next to Yunxiao looks unfamiliar; he must be an outsider, right?"
A cold-looking young man stood with his sword clasped to his chest and said calmly.
"May I ask your honorable name, sir? Would you please come over and have a chat?"
Within the pavilion, a slender woman dressed in a deep red, form-fitting outfit smiled and extended an invitation to a white-clad youth who appeared younger than them. My body contains countless worlds.

Chapter 186 Encountering an Old Friend at the Sword Mansion
The slender woman was none other than Jian Yunluo, one of the peerless geniuses spoken of by many disciples of the Sword Immortal Mansion.
She has always been a thoughtful and observant person.
Judging from Jian Yunxiao's unintentional expression of his attitude towards Zhang Yun, the white-robed youth was no ordinary person, which is why he made a special invitation.
"To be able to walk alongside Yunxiao, one must be Yunxiao's friend, but even if one is a friend, does that mean he has the right to stand here?"
The aloof young man, with a cold demeanor and a hint of menace, spoke calmly.
As he said, everyone who can stand here is a genius among geniuses and a hero among men.
To be able to become friends with Jian Yunxiao, one must most likely be a genius.
But that doesn't mean he's qualified to join.
It should be noted that those who can stand on the pavilion, even though they are all very young, are almost all at least at the Heavenly Gang Realm level.
The boy in white looked to be under twenty years old, so it seemed impossible.
"Yunfei, I'm afraid your judgment won't be so accurate this time."
Jian Yunxiao smiled leisurely and said, "I guarantee with my integrity that Young Master Zhang Yun is absolutely qualified."
These words caused a stir among the crowd, and their gazes immediately fell on the unusually calm young man in white. Everyone began to wonder who this person was who could be so highly regarded by Jian Yunxiao.
"Zhang Yun, this name sounds familiar, like I've heard it somewhere before."
A pale-faced young man pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized and said, "You're the Zhang Yun who turned Yunwu Sect upside down, stole the bride of a disciple of the Holy Sect, and was subsequently wanted by the Qin Kingdom?"
"It is indeed Zhang."
Zhang Yun remained calm, his gaze sweeping over the dozens of people present, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Sword Immortal Mansion truly lives up to its reputation as a super power comparable to the Holy Gate. These dozens of people are all under forty years old, yet they are all at the Heavenly Gang Realm. Any one of them standing out is no weaker than Luo Lin, the sect master of Yunwu Sect. In the future, these people will all have the opportunity to break through to the Star Phenomenon Realm, or even higher levels of the Immortal Realm.
Luo Lin's cultivation had previously remained at the early stage of the Heavenly Gang realm. He and the vice sect leader Luo Chen were in charge of the same sect, which was already ranked as a second-rate force in the Great Qin Empire. It is conceivable that compared with a force like the Sword Immortal Mansion, the gap between them was as vast as the difference between heaven and earth.
This youthful force alone could easily wipe out the Qin Empire.
“Zhang Yun, I’ve heard of you too. You killed a mid-stage Heavenly Gang Realm expert some time ago, that’s quite impressive.” The young man named Jian Mo nodded slightly, and the others also expressed their approval of Zhang Yun.
At such a young age, Zhang Yun was able to kill a mid-stage Heavenly Gang Realm expert, so he was indeed barely qualified to discuss the Dao with them.
But it was only barely acceptable.
Almost everyone present was stronger than Zhang Yun; they were all exceptional talents.
Most of them could easily kill a mid-stage Heavenly Gang Realm expert like Luo Lin, and they could even kill someone from a higher realm.
The reason why geniuses are called geniuses is that they possess terrifying strength that is far more powerful than those of other experts in the same realm.
However, they also had to admit that Zhang Yun was indeed younger than all of them present, yet no one believed that Zhang Yun had not entered the Heavenly Gang.
"Young Master Zhang is indeed a young hero. Please take a seat."
Jian Yunlu smiled warmly and invited Zhang Yun to sit down.
Zhang Yun did not refuse and took his seat with confidence under the watchful eyes of the assembled prodigies, making his presence dazzling in the eyes of many of them.
Zhang Yun really doesn't treat himself like an outsider.
Perhaps Zhang Yun was a dazzling genius in the Qin Empire or elsewhere, but in this gathering of geniuses, he appeared somewhat dim and inconspicuous.
Soon, the group of geniuses seemed to have forgotten Zhang Yun's presence and returned to their previous conversation.
Just then, on the bluestone path outside the pavilion, a group of pretty maids dressed in plain clothes filed in, serving tea and wine to the young talents.
Although all the maids kept their eyes down and dared not act rashly, a closer look would reveal that even the maids were beautiful, at least with delicate features.
The young woman serving tea to Zhang Yun was especially beautiful, with a perfect figure. Even with her head bowed, she attracted the attention of many men.
How come they never noticed before that there was such an extremely beautiful maid in the mansion?
Zhang Yun's eyes flashed as he stared thoughtfully at the young and beautiful woman.
"Brother Zhang, are you perhaps interested in this lowly maid?"
Jian Yunfei noticed Zhang Yun's unusual behavior and teased him with a half-smile.
Zhang Yun's expression remained unchanged: "In my opinion, people in this world are only divided into strong and weak, not noble and lowly. As long as you are strong enough, others will naturally respect you, and vice versa."
"Besides, I only noticed that this girl looks like one of my friends."
"Hehe, Young Master Zhang, you might make a teenage girl believe what you're saying, but a girl with a bit of common sense won't fall for it."
