Upon hearing this, the woman in purple was slightly taken aback, then smiled somewhat awkwardly and said, "In any case, I still want to thank you, young master, firstly for saving me, and secondly for preventing my flower field from being damaged."

"Did you plant this sea of ​​flowers?" Gu Changqing asked, slightly taken aback.

He had long suspected that this sea of ​​flowers had an owner, but he never expected that it would be such a coincidence that the woman in purple would be the owner of this sea of ​​flowers.

“Exactly!” The woman in purple smiled faintly and said without hesitation.

She planted this sea of ​​flowers herself because she has loved flowers and plants since she was a child. After growing up, she finally fulfilled her wish and planted so many flowers one after another. Whenever she is unhappy or has something on her mind, she will come to this sea of ​​flowers to see and stay for a few days. All her troubles will disappear.

"Hey, stop talking nonsense. Are you done yet? If you're not involved, please leave. Otherwise, my men might accidentally hurt you if they don't know their own strength," the leader of the men in black said impatiently.

The leader, a man in black, was tall with dark skin and decent features, except for a scar on his left cheek that looked quite frightening. It was clear at a glance that he was a member of the martial arts world and not someone to be trifled with.

The man in black who was leading the group was speechless when he saw so many people. He had come to do business and did not want to make a big fuss, but now that so many people were watching, it was really getting in the way.

"Why should I leave? I was the one who arrived first. If anyone should leave, it should be you. Don't disturb my enjoyment of the flowers," Gu Changqing said with a faint smile.

Gu Changqing didn't really want to get involved in their business, but these people were just too annoying and unreasonable, seriously affecting his and his disciples' mood for appreciating the flowers, so he couldn't help but argue with them.

He's not someone to be trifled with. It's good enough if he doesn't cause trouble, let alone be afraid of it.

"Hey, brat, are you determined to go against us? Do you know who we are, and what will happen if you offend us?" the leader of the men in black said arrogantly.

"I don't care who you are, get out of my way. If you disturb my enjoyment, you'll suffer a terrible fate," Gu Changqing said with a sneer and a grim face.

“If you don’t want to die, you’d better leave quickly. If you anger my husband, you’ll all have to die here, and there’s a good chance you’ll be left without a burial place,” Jiang Qingcheng chimed in.

"Exactly, is it fun for a bunch of men to bully a young woman? Don't you feel ashamed?" Bai Xue said indignantly.

The man in black laughed and said firmly, "The little woman you speak of is the one who killed my young master. We are here to arrest her on the orders of my master. My master is the lord of this city. Are you sure you still want to help her? Aren't you afraid of being implicated?"

“It is true that I killed someone, but he deserved to die. He abused his power and influence, committing all sorts of atrocities and defiling countless innocent young women. I am acting on behalf of Heaven to uphold justice,” the woman in purple said eloquently and logically.

"Young master, thank you for your kindness, but you'd better not get involved in our affairs. They have many people and great power, and they have powerful backers. They are hard to shake. You'd better not get involved in this mess." Before they could speak, the woman in purple continued to earnestly and patiently persuade them.

"No need to thank me, they're the ones who disturbed my enjoyment," Gu Changqing said casually.

"What nonsense about acting on behalf of Heaven? All I know is the principle of 'a life for a life, a debt for a debt.' Now that you've killed someone, you should pay with your life. Everyone else, if you're not involved, get out of the way, or don't blame us for our ruthless swords." The man in black said arrogantly.

"What if I refuse?" Gu Changqing asked with a cold smile.

"If you don't comply, don't blame me for killing you all. I am a Saint King level expert, killing you is as easy as crushing an ant."

The man in black said arrogantly that the reason he was so arrogant and domineering was because he could sense that no one else's cultivation level was higher than his. However, what he could not sense was that Gu Changqing and his group were all more powerful than him.

Only the woman in purple had a slightly lower cultivation level, at the peak of the Saint realm, which was slightly lower than the man in black.

"Oh, really? What a boastful tone. If you can defeat my disciple, I will be completely convinced and leave without hesitation, without interfering with your affairs," Gu Changqing said with a slight smile.

"These three girls are your apprentices, right? Just the one in the middle will do," the man in black said smugly.

"No, these three women are not my disciples. They are my disciples," Gu Changqing shook his head and said.

The man in black smiled and said, "Besides the three young ladies and this murderer, who else is there? Don't tell me it's that group of children who haven't grown up yet. Even if they have some skill, they are no match for me."

"You guessed right, my apprentice is the 'child' you mentioned. As long as you can defeat any one of them, I will leave immediately," Gu Changqing said with a faint smile, calm and composed.

"Hahaha, are you kidding me? Are you planning to send your disciple to his death? He's only ten years old, how much skill could he possibly have? Even if he's incredibly talented and a cultivation prodigy, he still can't beat me. You're sending a kid to fight me? Who do you think you are? Even if they all come together, I have no objection. To prevent gossip, I'll randomly select one of my subordinates to fight your disciple." The black-haired man chuckled, speaking dismissively.

"Alright, disciples, who among you is willing to step forward and fight in your master's place?" Gu Changqing said with a faint smile.

"I, I, I..."

The scene quickly descended into chaos as people eagerly signed up. Seeing this, Gu Changqing had no choice but to assign a male apprentice to stand in for him.

The man in black opposite also assigned one of his men.

For a moment, their eyes met, and tension was palpable.

The subordinate said disdainfully, "You little brat, do you think you're worthy to fight me? Watch me slap you so hard you'll fly away."

The young apprentice smiled and said directly, "Unfortunately, I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you."

"Such arrogance! I'll send you there for a day right now," the henchman said menacingly.

After saying that, the man in black stopped talking and threw a punch. The air exploded, and a terrifying shockwave gathered between his palms like a tornado. The terrifying wind and waves were frightening. It was as fast as lightning and slammed into his little apprentice.
