Zhang Yun's expression was solemn and dignified, and his eyes flashed with an unusual confidence, which made Zhuo Xinyan momentarily lose her composure.
Zhang Yun possesses a unique charisma that is subtly apparent in his every gesture.
And those dark, inky eyes revealed a vicissitude and depth beyond their years.
The confident look in his eyes is particularly captivating, drawing people in completely.
Zhuo Xinyan had this feeling from the first moment she saw Zhang Yun.
Now that Zhang Yun was standing in front of her, this feeling was even stronger, causing a slight tremor to stir in Zhuo Xinyan's heart, which had remained unchanged for millennia.
“Zhang Yun, since you yourself know that Sword Immortals represent the pinnacle of swordsmanship in the Holy Domain, I really don’t know where you get the confidence and courage to say such things.”
Zhuo Xinyan also stared at Zhang Yun. She knew that Zhang Yun was no ordinary person, otherwise he would not have been able to destroy Yunwu Sect by himself.
However, in Zhuo Xinyan's eyes, the Sword Immortal Mansion has always been an insurmountable mountain, and also the holy land for sword cultivation that she has always longed for.
Zhang Yun surprisingly claimed that he could train her to become a powerful figure no weaker than a sword immortal.
The credibility of this statement is currently unknown.
But she could sense that Zhang Yun was not joking, and the confidence in his eyes was definitely not feigned.
"If you agree to follow me from now on, I'll prove it to you, how about it?"
Zhuo Xinyan's attitude gradually softened, and Zhang Yun, seeing that the time was ripe, spoke up, which was also his initial purpose.
Just as he said, Zhuo Xinyan's talent in swordsmanship is no less than that of the sword geniuses in the Sword Immortal Mansion. As long as she is nurtured, her future achievements in swordsmanship will be limitless.
Moreover, he was personally trained by Zhang Yun.
"Follow you?"
Zhang Yun's words caused Zhuo Xinyan's expression to change slightly.
What does it mean to follow Zhang Yun?
To be by his side...?
"Don't misunderstand."
Seeing Zhuo Xinyan's expression, Zhang Yun knew she had misunderstood. He shook his head and chuckled, "I'm letting you follow me like a disciple. From now on, as long as you have no ulterior motives towards me, I won't interfere with anything else."
"oh."
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Xinyan breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she inexplicably felt a sense of disappointment.
"Then how will you prove it?"
To be honest, Zhuo Xinyan was indeed somewhat tempted by Zhang Yun's words, and a hint of anticipation began to appear in her beautiful eyes.
She's not stupid.
If Zhang Yun wasn't exaggerating, then rather than being a servant in the Sword Immortal's Mansion, with no end in sight and no way of knowing when one could even get close to the core of the Sword Mansion, it would be much more comfortable to follow Zhang Yun.
At least, you don't have to act according to others' wishes or be bossed around.
"Take these sword techniques back with you today and take a look."
Zhang Yun handed the sword manual he had prepared to Zhuo Xinyan and smiled.
"Layered Waves Sword Technique, Lesser Thousand Sword Technique, Shadowless Sword Technique, Flowing Light Sword Technique..."
Zhuo Xinyan flipped through the books one by one, the hope in her beautiful eyes gradually turning into disappointment.
Although these sword techniques are rare and difficult to obtain for ordinary cultivators, they are readily available in a place like the Sword Immortal's Mansion. Even the lowest servants in the Sword Immortal's Mansion have the right to observe them.
Zhang Yun actually tried to fool her with some ordinary firm statements.
As if seeing through Zhuo Xinyan's thoughts, Zhang Yun still had a faint smile on his face: "Are you trying to say that these sword techniques are all second-rate sword techniques in the eyes of the Sword Immortal Mansion?"
Looking up, Zhuo Xinyan met Zhang Yun's gaze directly, signaling him to continue.
"As you know, while martial arts techniques are hard to come by, they are still countless throughout the world. These techniques were created by our predecessors and have been passed down for thousands of years. Most of them have changed over time."

Chapter 189 An Unreasonable Request
"After years of evolution, how much of the essence of the martial arts techniques that are still circulating in the world today do you think remains?"
Hearing Zhang Yun's words, Zhuo Xinyan was slightly stunned, and then her gaze fell on the sword manual in her hand.
Upon closer inspection, one is immediately captivated by the contents.
Recalling the sword techniques she had learned before, Zhuo Xinyan's body trembled slightly upon comparison.
Brilliant!
Just as Zhang Yun said, the various sword techniques in her hand at this moment were indeed much more exquisite than the sword techniques she had learned before!
There were even some parts of the content that she couldn't quite understand!
"With your understanding of swordsmanship, you must have discovered something, right?"
Zhang Yun smiled and said, "How is it?"
