Chapter 221 Paying Off Others?
This is the cruel reality, and he, as a retainer of the Sword Mansion from another family, must accept it.
Only in the future, when another opportunity arises, will I be able to kill Zhang Yun with a single blow.
"Aren't you going to get out of here?"
Seeing Xie Feng obediently retreat, Jian Yunluo's eyes turned cold as he glared at Jian Chenfei and said in a cold voice.
"Yes, yes, Sister Yunluo, I'll be right there."
Jian Chenfei nodded hurriedly like a chicken pecking at rice, then stared fiercely at Zhang Yun with his bloodshot eyes and said viciously.
"Zhang Yun, there's plenty of time. We'll see!"
He had just uttered those harsh words to Zhang Yun when he was shocked to discover that Jian Yunluo's hand had slowly risen, instantly breaking out in a cold sweat.
"Sister Yunlu, please have mercy! I'll leave right now!"
Jian Chenfei covered his head with both hands and shouted loudly, filled with a strong will to survive.
In front of others, Jian Chenfei was the boss.
But in front of a prodigy like Jian Yunluo, he never dared to utter a sound.
This is what it means to bully the weak and fear the strong.
Jian Chenfei himself was well aware of this.
There's no other way. If we don't bully the weak, are we going to bully the strong?
"Miss Yunluo."
Watching Xie Feng and Jian Chen fly away, Zhang Yun's eyes finally settled on Jian Yunluo.
"I told you long ago that there's no future for us, so why are you doing this?"
Jian Yunluo met Zhang Yun's gaze directly, his expression seemingly unchanged.
"What you think is your business, and what I do is my business. It's none of your business to judge," Jian Yunluo replied calmly.
It is said that a woman's intuition is the most accurate.
Jian Yunlu could also see that Zhang Yun truly had no feelings for her.
But so what?
She firmly believed that everyone has a heart, and that as long as she worked hard, she would surely win Zhang Yun's heart one day.
Moreover, after observing her for the past few days, she is now convinced that Zhang Yun is the best candidate for her partner.
His temperament, his strength, his talent—I'm afraid the entire Holy Land will never find another better like him.
This is also the biggest reason why Jian Yunluo disregarded all opposition and insisted on showing up to save him.
"However, I still have to thank you for getting me out of that predicament today."
Zhang Yun thanked him.
Even though he was confident that he could take Xie Feng's head and win the battle just now.
But Xie Feng was no weakling.
He could hardly guarantee that he could ensure the safety of Ye Qianzhi and Zhuo Xinyan 100% during their life-or-death battle with Xie Feng.
This gave Zhang Yun the idea of establishing his own power base and settling the two women in one place.
Only in this way can he devote himself wholeheartedly to cultivation and combat.
"No need to thank me, we're just doing what we need."
Jian Yunluo's voice remained calm, but Zhang Yun could tell that it was just Jian Yunluo being stubborn.
"I won't say anything about what some people in the Sword Mansion are like."
Zhang Yun pondered for a moment, then clasped his hands in a fist salute to Jian Yunluo and said, "However, there is one thing I would like to ask Miss Yunluo for help with."
“Young Master Zhang, just say what you need. As long as it’s within my power and not something immoral, I can agree to it.”
As he spoke, a faint smile appeared on Jian Yunluo's lips.
Since Zhang Yun asked her for help, it means that the relationship between her and Zhang Yun has loosened, or rather, the ice has been broken.
At least, the distance has been narrowed somewhat.
This is definitely a good omen.
At least in this way, she and Zhang Yun can be friends first.
Therefore, Jian Yunluo was happy to help Zhang Yun with this favor.
"I would like to rest and recuperate in Sword Immortal City for a few more days, just in case."
"I don't want to be disturbed during this time. Miss Yunluo, could you do me this favor?"
