"Heh." Zhang Yun laughed, then said coldly, "Gong Qi, do you think you can bully me just because you're a few years older and have a higher cultivation level? Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed?"
"You're not on my side, so what if I bully you?"
What others think is none of my business.
Gong Qi also sneered, his voice carrying an air of domineering arrogance.
"Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Zhang Yun was not intimidated by Gong Qi's status as a Star Realm expert and responded domineeringly.
After a brief exchange, he gained a general understanding of Gong Qi's personality.
Gong Qi is the kind of person who does things his own way and is very self-centered. He doesn't care about the feelings of others at all when he speaks or acts.
He dared not say whether Gong Qi's way of doing things was right or wrong; at least, it was Gong Qi's personality.
In his view, this was certainly a very peculiar personality trait.
"When did it become your place, Gong Qi, to run wild in my Sword Immortal Mansion?"
Just then, from the depths of the Sword Mansion, a domineering and ethereal voice rolled in, exploding in Gong Qi's ears.
Immediately afterwards, Gong Qi felt a powerful, seemingly endless and merciless pressure from immortal energy, like a sharp sword pressing down directly on his head.
Those on the battlefield also changed color, revealing expressions of awe.
That was the sound of the sword immortal Jian Yinling.
Gong Qi was too arrogant; he even threatened to kill someone above the Sword Immortal's Mansion.
Even the people in the Sword Immortal's Mansion, including the Sword Immortal himself, no longer had any affection for Zhang Yun.
No matter what, Zhang Yun was a guest of the Sword Mansion.
As long as he doesn't leave, he is nominally a guest of the Sword Mansion.
On the territory of the Sword Immortal Mansion, they threatened to kill the guests of the Sword Immortal Mansion. Where does that leave the reputation of the Sword Immortal Mansion?
Even the elders of the Sword Immortal Mansion could intimidate Gong Qi.
But the reputation of the Legend of Sword and Fairy is undoubtedly greater, its strength is undoubtedly stronger, and its deterrent power is undoubtedly greater.
Even though Gong Qi was unwilling, she had no choice but to bow her head before the Sword Immortal.
It should be noted that if the Sword Immortal were to make a move, killing Gong Qi in an instant would not be difficult.
In this situation, Gong Qi's personality ceases to be a personality.
"I didn't expect that Gong Qi's little fuss would alarm the Sword Immortal Senior. I'm sorry for my rudeness."
Gong Qi bowed in the direction of the voice with a forced smile, his eyes filled with arrogance.
He believed that as long as he didn't act recklessly, as a sword immortal, he wouldn't make a move lightly.
Furthermore, he is a member of the Holy Sect.
Even though the sword immortal is powerful, he still has to give the Holy Sect some face.
"Gong Qi, if you come to the Sword Mansion as a guest, we will certainly welcome you. However, if you cause trouble on my territory, we will not let you off easily."
The sword immortal spoke calmly, yet his calmness contained an undeniable authority.
"Understood, I will take my leave now."
Gong Qi's eyes flickered, and then she said to Zhang Yu, "Let's go."
"Yes, Master," Zhang Yu replied respectfully, but a hint of disgust flashed deep in his eyes.
With Gong Qi's departure, the sword battlefield within the Sword Mansion returned to some semblance of calm.
However, a sharp glint flashed in Zhang Yun's eyes.
He understood that the reason Gong Qi retreated so quickly was because he had grasped the meaning behind the sword immortal's words.
Zhang Yun naturally thought of this.
Does the Sword Immortal's instruction to Gong Qi not to cause trouble on her territory mean that if he leaves the Sword Immortal's territory, she can do whatever she wants with him?
After all, if the Sword Immortal really wanted to protect Zhang Yun, he could have directly warned Gong Qi instead of making such ambiguous statements.
He finally understood the sword immortal's thoughts.
He also understands the attitude of the Legend of Sword and Fairy series.
After all, people are selfish. Zhang Yun's refusal to become the Sword Immortal's disciple means that he has nothing to do with Zhang Yun and has no obligation to help him.
While it may be understandable, he will remember what the sword immortal did today.
He will never befriend the Sword Immortal Mansion, at least not in this lifetime.
It's unclear whether this was Zhang Yun's misfortune or a loss for the Sword Immortal's Mansion.

"Zhang Yun, let me remind you one more time: today's battle is a battle to the death. Do you dare to accept the challenge?"
"I advise you not to accept the challenge, given that you are only at the ninth level of the Heavenly Origin Realm, lest others accuse me of using my cultivation to bully you."
