That's not a direct threat? He only says that after you mention Helgen...so yeah it's meant for you directly. It only hurts when it's swung at you, just like a sword only hurts when it cuts you, wielding it wouldn't kill you.

He only says it first time you enter castle dour. So nothing after you mention Helgen. Also, it's not a direct threat, regardless of what you say.
