Just like his name suggested, the Great Sun Sword Immortal was a very domineering man.
He was also the only man that Guhan had ever seen that could compare to Cast Cloud Iron in terms of physique.
The Great Sun Sword Immortal was over 2.3 meters tall, and his shoulders were almost double Guhan's. Standing next to the Great Sun Sword Immortal, Guhan and the Great Sun Sword Immortal looked like a one-dollar bill next to a hundred-dollar bill.
"Your Yuzhang City still has the face to send someone to see me!"
The Great Sun Sword Immortal's eyes were filled with anger the moment he saw Guhan. This was a man who was not good at hiding his emotions.
"This is not a matter of shame. There are some things that have to be dealt with.
Is it because our Yuzhang City doesn't have the face to send people here that we will just ignore these things and not do anything to deal with them?
Not communicate with Yanjing City at all?
Aren't you going to do what we can to compensate Yanjing City? "Gu Han's retort unexpectedly made the Great Sun Sword Immortal's expression look much better.
When there was a conflict between two parties, it was even worse to push the blame onto others. On the contrary, if they took the initiative to lower their stance and put on an attitude of resolving the problem, then the problem could be resolved better.
"Alright, then tell me, how do you want to resolve this matter?
And how do you want to compensate us? "The Great Sun Sword Immortal returned to his seat.
The chair that the Great Sun Sword Immortal sat on was not some soft and comfortable sofa, but a hard jade chair. It had been carved when the White Jade Jing was being built. The chair itself was connected to the White Jade Jing, and could not be moved at all.
Sitting on such a chair is a terrible experience. Everyone who goes to school or works in the office, put yourself in my shoes. If the chair under your buttocks is cold, you can only use your buttocks to adjust your posture, instead of changing the chair to a more comfortable sitting position, what a terrible experience that would be.
However, there was only one chair in the entire White Jade Jing. It was an extension of the White Jade Jing's body. Only the chairman of the Sword Council had to sit in such an uncomfortable chair.
This was a rule set by Kenzu in the past. It was to make his successors feel uncomfortable at all times so that they would not indulge in peace and forget the great cause of mankind.
However, there was a rumor that the jade chair was the most important part of the White Jade Jing. It contained a treasure left behind by Kenzu.
If anyone could break this chair, they would be able to obtain the treasure left behind by Kenzu.
Of course, this was all nonsense, and Guhan had never taken it to heart.
"Of course, we have to first calculate what Beijing City has lost!" Guhan laughed.
The Great Sun Sword Immortal squinted his eyes and said in disdain, "That's easy. I won't hold you accountable for the losses of Yuan Kou's First Research Lab. All you have to do is return Tian Hen's life to us!"
What did he mean by returning Tian Heng's life?
How could the life of a Sword Immortal be calculated with anything?
The Great Sun Sword Immortal's meaning was clear. He wanted Koo Rok-in to pay with his life.
"Of course, we do have to calculate this clearly."
Guhan smiled. "But if you want Yuzhang City to compensate, you have to at least let us know how many mistakes Koo Rok-in made in this matter.
How much responsibility does he have to bear?
Don't you think so, Great Sun Sword Immortal? "
"Of course he's 100% responsible. Are you trying to push his responsibility away?"
The Great Sun Sword Immortal's eyes widened, and it was as if a scorching ray of sunlight shone on Gu Han's body, causing Gu Han to feel a burning sensation that he had nowhere to hide.
"Even if he is 100% responsible, Yuzhang City still needs to figure out the process of this matter, doesn't it?
Does Yuzhang City have to accept it just because Yanjing City says it's 100% responsible?
That's against the rules. There's no such logic in the world. "Guhan argued.
"Then I'll make it clear for you!"
The Great Sun Sword Immortal suddenly stood up from his chair. The huge difference in height allowed him to look down at Guhan. At the same time, his body released a powerful pressure … This was the pressure of a Sword Immortal. Guhan felt like he was tens of thousands of meters under the sea, and all the air around him was giving him a pressure of more than ten times that of normal air pressure.
This was a huge pressure both visually and psychologically … A normal sword wielder would have already knelt in the face of this pressure.
But Guhan was neither humble nor arrogant. His body didn't even tremble, as if he couldn't feel this pressure at all.
"I know everything. Just ask me what you want to know. I will answer you." The Great Sun Sword Immortal said each word in an oppressive tone.
"What a joke. Isn't this just your side of the story?
We, Yuzhang City, want to know the real truth. "Gu Han replied word by word.
"What I said is the truth!
Do you dare to doubt the chairman of the Yanjing City Sword Committee? "
The moment he finished speaking, the pressure released by the Great Sun Sword Immortal suddenly increased by tenfold, which was equivalent to giving Gu Han a pressure several hundred times that of normal atmospheric pressure.
This was the pressure that a gasoline engine's cylinder had to withstand when the gasoline was fully ignited … If a normal person stayed in this environment, they would have long been crushed into a pile of meat paste.
But the pressure of the sword immortal was not physical pressure. In reality, it was a kind of spiritual pressure, a pressure that was exerted on the Purple Palace.
Guhan's body didn't actually bear any pressure. What was really bearing the pressure was Guhan's mind, Guhan's Purple Palace.
If a normal person's mind was under such enormous pressure, they would instantly have a mental breakdown. Then the brain's self-protection mechanism would activate, and the person would fall into a coma. There was a possibility that they would wake up and become crazy.
If the sword bearer were to bear this kind of pressure, not only would their mind bear a huge burden, but the Purple Palace would also feel this pressure. All the sword marks would start to vibrate, and the sword bearer would feel a suffocating pain.
In short, the pressure of a sword immortal was something that had a certain degree of lethality to humans. It was also a tool to test the spiritual will of the sword bearer. If they could bear the pressure of a sword immortal, it meant that the sword bearer's spiritual will was strong enough, and they were a rare good material.
But sword immortals wouldn't use their pressure often. Otherwise, if they weren't careful, they might accidentally turn a precious sword bearer into a lunatic. That would be a great loss.
The Great Sun Sword Immortal had actually heard of Gu Han's name a long time ago. The first time he heard of Gu Han's name was when the Treasure Sword Bearer of Changyang Mountain returned. The leader of the group, Misty Sword Spirit, had personally told the Great Sun Sword Immortal that Gu Han was a top-notch talent. His talent in sword arts was extremely high, and there were probably not many sword masters in the world who could be his match. In another ten or twenty years, he would be the next Great Sun Sword Immortal.
The Confused Sword Spirit had actually underestimated Guhan by a lot, because Guhan's current swordsmanship was probably no lower than the Confused Sword Spirit's, so there was no need to wait for another ten or twenty years.
Then, the Great Sun Sword Immortal heard Guhan's name from the mouth of another person. This person was none other than Hao Tian Jiandi.
The Great Sun Sword Immortal went to visit Hao Tian Jiandi, and found that Hao Tian Jiandi was very weak. After asking, he found out that Hao Tian Jiandi had actually fought with Long Shi Jiandi through the giant void hand.
At the end of the conversation, Hao Tian Jiandi suddenly asked the Great Sun Sword Immortal if he knew Guhan.
The Great Sun Sword Immortal said he knew. After all, the Confused Sword Spirit had mentioned this name yesterday.
Then Hao Tian Jiandi told the Great Sun Sword Immortal that Yanjing City should treat this Guhan as kindly as possible in the future. This kindness would help Yanjing City in the future.
The day after, Jiandi's words had completely ignited the Great Sun Sword Immortal's curiosity, so he began to pay special attention to everything about Guhan, and all sorts of information about Guhan was gathered in his hands.
This included Guhan's role in the Yuzhang Calamity, the good relationship between Guhan and Misaka Mikoto, Guhan's identity as the Military Governor in the game, the strange relationship between Guhan and the Liu Nian Family, and so on.
All in all, on the surface, everything about Guhan was known to the Great Sun Sword Immortal.
After obtaining this information, the Great Sun Sword Immortal came to a conclusion: This Guhan was probably one of the three most outstanding human geniuses in the past thirty years, and the possibility of him becoming Jiandi was extremely high. Perhaps in a hundred years, there would be some Guhan Jiandi ascending to the throne.
Therefore, the Great Sun Sword Immortal had the thought of personally testing out Guhan.
Originally, the Great Sun Sword Immortal had told himself that it was enough to give Guhan 10% of his Sword Celestial Aura, and not to ruin the future hope of humanity, Jiandi.
However, the Great Sun Sword Immortal realized that Guhan did not have any reaction under 10% of his Sword Celestial Aura, as if he was as carefree as a gentle breeze. Therefore, the unhappy Great Sun Sword Immortal increased his Sword Celestial Aura to 30% … Increasing it by 30% was not as simple as tripling it. There was a complicated formula involved, and when it came to Guhan, it produced 10 times more Sword Celestial Aura than before.
The Great Sun Sword Immortal was looking forward to seeing Guhan faint from the mental pressure. Even if he did not faint, he should be lying on the ground like a toad.
However, although Guhan was sweating a lot, and his expression was much uglier than before, there was still no substantial change. He stood there proudly, unmoving like a bamboo.
"F * ck."
The Great Sun Sword Immortal was an extremely domineering person to begin with. Seeing that Guhan still did not fall, he was instantly enraged. He released 100% of his Sword Celestial Aura, and Guhan felt like he was being hit on the head by countless hammers. Then, he fell to the ground with a thud, and spat out a few mouthfuls of white foam.
"Like I said, little guy, don't be too stubborn. It's bad for your body!"
The Great Sun Sword Immortal smiled contentedly. Then, he pressed a button on his personal terminal. Two sword bearers walked in and picked up Gu Han, who was lying on the ground.
"Take good care of him. When he wakes up, bring him to see that Koo Rok-in."
With that, the Great Sun Sword Immortal waved his hand, indicating for them to bring Guhan away. He did not notice that the corner of Guhan's mouth seemed to be curling up a little.
