"The Zhang family is indeed the Zhang family. Even a servant is so arrogant. Today I have finally seen it for myself."
Zhang Yun spoke with neither arrogance nor servility, but with a hint of sarcasm.
However, Zhang Ning seemed to be used to such comments and did not respond at all, which made Zhang Yun unable to help but call out, "Zhang Ning."
"You know my name?" Zhang Ning suddenly turned her gaze to Zhang Yun, who was in disguise, her eyes revealing a hint of coldness, and her voice became very unfriendly.
"How could I not know?" Zhang Yun said with a teasing smile, "A direct descendant of the Zhang family, doing the work of a servant, aren't you angry?"
Zhang Yun looked Zhang Ning up and down and noticed a deep red bloodstain on his neck, which made a cold glint flash in his eyes.
Without a doubt, this must be the work of Zhang Xiaotian's family.
"What's it to you?" Zhang Ning clenched his fists tightly and said coldly, "In the end, you're just a dog of the Zhang family. I don't know where you get your sense of superiority."
Zhang Yun's lips curled into a smile as he asked calmly, "Whether I'm a dog or not is unimportant. What's important is that you've become like this because of Zhang Zhentian and his son, right?"
"You joined the Zhang family just to humiliate me?" Zhang Ning frowned slightly, suddenly sensing that the person in front of him was very strange.
It seems that he and this newcomer to the Zhang residence do not know each other.
“I remember clearly that three years ago, the Zhang family was in turmoil, and the original head of the Zhang family died in that turmoil. His son escaped by chance and has been barely surviving ever since. Now, the Zhang Xiaotian family’s power surpasses all the powers in the Qin Kingdom and is at its zenith.”
"I've heard that everyone is saying that Zhang Zhentian and his son betrayed the Zhang family back then for their own selfish desires, colluding with outsiders. They were extremely selfish and shameless, which is why the Zhang family unanimously opposed them and did everything in their power to kill Zhang Zhentian."
Zhang Yun spoke casually about what happened three years ago, as well as some unpleasant rumors he heard while dining with Zhang Tian at the hotel.
"Betrayal?" Zhang Ning's brows furrowed deeper, furious at the rumors circulating outside: "Please correct your statement. My uncle and Zhang Yun are definitely not that kind of people!"
"If they're not like that, then what kind of people are they?" Zhang Yun asked, seemingly very curious.
“Who are they…” Zhang Ning instinctively tried to explain, but suddenly realized something, his eyes narrowed slightly, a sharp glint flashing in them: “Who exactly are you?”
"Who I am is not important. What is important is that, in the eyes of the world, they are indeed that kind of people now." Zhang Yun smiled slightly, his smile enigmatic.
"Say that again, or I'll kill you right now!"
Zhang Yun's repeated provocations had almost crossed Zhang Ning's bottom line, and a murderous intent flickered in his eyes.
"Kill me?" Zhang Yun raised an eyebrow, pretending to be interested, but a thought flashed through his mind, and then a look of surprise crossed his eyes.
Zhang Ning's cultivation level was actually at the third level of the Heavenly Origin Realm!
He knew that Zhang Ning's talent was considered genius in Qin, but what surprised him was how fast Zhang Ning had progressed in the past three years.
It should be noted that this is under circumstances of extreme scarcity of cultivation resources!
It's clear how hard Zhang Ning has been training these past few years; he must have been trying to become stronger and escape his current predicament.
Three years later, Zhang Ning still defended him in the same way, even at the cost of being treated like a servant by Zhang Xiaotian and his son, never forgetting his original intention. Zhang Yun was deeply moved by this.
His statement was partly a test.
It's clear that Zhang Ning's anger was genuine.
That alone is enough.
"Tell me, who exactly are you?"
Upon reflection, Zhang Ning suddenly felt that the stranger's words and actions were too strange, as if they were not meant to provoke him for the sake of provoking him.
"Otherwise, you won't leave here alive. Don't doubt my words."
Zhang Ning's voice grew increasingly cold, a chill creeping into the entire living room.
"Take a close look at who I am before you decide whether you want to kill me or not." My body contains countless worlds...

Chapter 291 Nothing to Fear
Zhang Yun smiled slightly, and his rather ordinary face gradually became handsome and dashing, instantly transforming back to his original appearance. This caused Zhang Ning to widen his eyes in shock, and his emotions gradually became excited.
"You're Brother Yun...!"
Upon seeing Zhang Yun's familiar face, Zhang Ning was so excited she almost cried. She couldn't help but rush forward and give Zhang Yun a bear hug, but suddenly her mind went blank, and she separated from Zhang Yun with a bit of wariness, keeping her distance.
How do I know if you're really Brother Yun?
After calming down a bit, Zhang Ning carefully looked Zhang Yun up and down; he was not ignorant.
He had heard that some people's disguise skills were so superb that even their closest relatives would have difficulty detecting them.
“Once you were so scared that you peed your pants. In order not to be laughed at by others, you asked me to go home and get you your pants.”
Zhang Yun shook his head and chuckled, feeling a strange sadness, and suddenly felt that innocent joy and carefree spirit from his childhood.
"It's definitely my Brother Yun!"
Overwhelmed with emotion, Zhang Ning gave Zhang Yun another big hug, and tears unexpectedly began to well up in her eyes.
After confirming Zhang Yun's true identity, Zhang Ning's statue-like face completely shed its disguise, and she cried unrestrainedly, just like a child, which made Zhang Yun feel a pang of sadness.
"These years have really been tough on you," Zhang Yun said, patting Zhang Ning on the shoulder. If this had happened a few years ago, Zhang Ning would have been severely scolded by him.
A man should act like a man.
However, he knew that although Zhang Ning appeared to be fine on the surface, she was actually suppressing a lot of grievances and pressure in her heart.
