His reasoning wasn't wrong. For ordinary people, let alone someone in the early stages of Rank 8, even someone at Rank 9 would probably be at a loss. After all, the Boundary Wall outside was no ordinary barrier to break through.
So, in Gong Yuzi's view, Zhang Tao might be a prodigy, but he was far too weak. There was no way he could enter his Boundary Land.
After fiddling with it for a while, Zhang Tao realized he really couldn't figure out how the barrier worked. So he brought out the God-Slaying Blade. If he didn't know how to break through, he could just smash his way in.
As for whether that would offend Gong Yuzi—ha! Zhang Tao wasn't afraid. Hadn't Li Zhen come along? No matter how strong Gong Yuzi was, he was only at Emperor Rank, nowhere near the Heaven Suppressing King's level.
Li Zhen had a Mental Power Avatar of the Heaven Suppressing King on him. Zhang Tao wasn't charging in blindly. Besides, since Gong Yuzi had his own plans, he wasn't going to cause trouble for Zhang Tao over such a small matter.
When Li Zhen saw Zhang Tao take out the God-Slaying Blade, he was aghast. He thought Zhang Tao had lost his mind. Was the man crazy? What if there really was someone inside who came out swinging? The two of them were so puny—wouldn't that be suicide?
Gong Yuzi's eyes widened, too, as he stared at Zhang Tao. What was he doing? Wait, was that... the God-Slaying Blade? Grey Cat? That damned Grey Cat had given Zhang Tao the God-Slaying Blade?
As soon as the words left his mouth, he clapped a hand over it. He'd said Grey Cat's name—wouldn't Grey Cat sense it?
Sure enough, Grey Cat in Kyoto sensed him,
