"Oh, really? I'm so scared! Tell me how powerful those two are, so I can broaden my horizons," Gu Changqing asked curiously, feigning fear.
In truth, he knew the answer perfectly well; he had known it all along, but he was just pretending not to.
The woman in white couldn't help but smile when she heard Gu Changqing's words, thinking to herself: "Young master is quite interesting, and he's putting on a very convincing act."
Although she didn't know how profound the young master's cultivation level was, seeing his confident, unhurried, and disdainful demeanor, she knew he was certain of victory.
"These are the best bodyguards my dad found for me in the whole city, the ones with the highest cultivation level. They are both genuine quasi-immortal emperors at the ninth level. How about that? Impressive, right? If you know what's good for you, get out of here and leave the beauty behind, and I'll spare your life. I have some friends coming over in a bit, and I don't want to see you in my way."
At this moment, Fatty Huang showed off without any restraint, saying smugly.
“Impressive, indeed powerful, but I still don’t intend to leave. If you wish to leave, I would be more than happy to oblige, saving me some trouble.” Gu Changqing said calmly with a faint smile.
"You brat, you don't know what's good for you! You insist on going against me. Well then, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Fatty Huang said angrily.
After speaking, Fatty Huang glanced at the black-clad bodyguards beside him, and the two of them immediately understood.
Two bodyguards in black each produced a gleaming, sharp broadsword. Without a word, they picked up their swords and swung them with all their might. A terrifying killing intent erupted and raged forth, its vast and terrifying aura seemingly ancient and timeless, filled with overwhelming killing intent, roaring and surging.
Under this terrifying fluctuation, the void could not withstand it and cracked layer by layer as if a mirror were shattering, which was extremely frightening.
Despite the situation, Gu Changqing remained calm and composed, as if he hadn't seen anything at all. He didn't even glance at them, remaining motionless as their broadswords came slashing at him.
In the blink of an eye, the two black-clad bodyguards' broadswords struck Gu Changqing, causing a flurry of light and sparks, like fireworks, flying everywhere.
With a loud "bang," the entire restaurant was filled with terror. Everyone present was startled, thinking there had been an explosion. They didn't care about their appearance and scrambled under the tables.
Upon hearing the loud bang, Fatty Huang was immediately overjoyed, thinking that Gu Changqing had been killed by his two bodyguards. But what happened next left him dumbfounded.
When the two men in black slashed at Gu Changqing with their broadswords, it was as if they had encountered some incredibly hard diamond. Not only could they not cut through him, but the broadswords shattered uncontrollably on the ground. At the same time, the two bodyguards were violently thrown to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, looking extremely disheveled.
Everyone present couldn't help but look at the scene unfolding before them with disbelief, their expressions shifting repeatedly.
My God, what level of cultivation does this person possess? To be able to make two men at the ninth level of Quasi-Immortal Emperors cough up blood without any equipment is terrifying!
My goodness! Two quasi-Immortal Emperor level nine experts couldn't defeat a young man? Who would believe that if word got out! I should have known these two black-clad bodyguards were second only to the city lord in the city's power!
Holy crap, that's awesome! This guy must be some kind of super powerful being. He's just there right now, doing nothing, yet he's already so terrifying. I can't even imagine what he would do if he actually made a move.
"So this is all there is to me, the ninth level of Quasi-Immortal Emperor. They were defeated before I even made a move. How boring. They're just too pathetic." Gu Changqing sighed slightly, somewhat dissatisfied.
Fatty Huang said angrily, "Impossible, this is impossible! You brat, you must have used some tricks, otherwise you would never be a match for them."
"Still bragging, you've already lost and you still won't admit it, how shameful," the woman in white said bluntly.
"No, I don't believe it! I don't care what methods you two use, I want that brat dead, immediately!" As if his secret had been exposed, Fatty Huang's eyes widened in anger, and he immediately shouted.
From childhood to adulthood, he absolutely refused to allow anyone to be superior to him, and he would do whatever it took to win back the score.
Upon hearing Young Master Huang's words, the two bodyguards in black immediately perked up, each producing a pill in their hand. Without a word, they swallowed it.
This elixir has the function of healing injuries and improving cultivation in a short period of time. It was given to the two of them by the city lord. The reason for giving it to them was twofold: firstly, so that they could use it to save their lives, and secondly, so that they could better protect his son. Otherwise, why would the city lord be willing to give them such a precious elixir?
The two bodyguards in black immediately felt their injuries heal rapidly, and their spiritual energy surged dramatically. In an instant, their cultivation levels broke through to the peak of Quasi-Immortal Emperor.
Sensing the changes in their bodies, they were overjoyed, their faces glowing with excitement.
However, what they didn't know was that although their cultivation was already very strong, they were like ants compared to Gu Changqing, utterly vulnerable and incomparable.
With a casual slap, Gu Changqing could crush them to the ground with almost no effort. If he used a little force, he could turn them into powder.
With a "boom," they pulled out a brand new weapon and stabbed it towards Gu Changqing.
This was a long, bluish-green sword, gleaming with a sharp, cold light, more dazzling than thunder in the sky. It looked as if a bolt of lightning had descended from the heavens. Without saying a word, the two black-clad bodyguards simultaneously thrust their swords at Gu Changqing.
Faced with this terrifying power, the others' expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly retreated. They knew that if they took the hit, they would probably be going to meet the King of Hell immediately. Even without direct contact with the attack, the aftershocks alone would be enough to slam them against the wall and turn them into dust.
Faced with the two's attacks, Gu Changqing didn't take it seriously, smiled faintly, and slapped them directly.
Amidst the shocked expressions of everyone present, the slap landed heavily on the two men's longswords, instantly shattering the black iron spears into countless fragments.
The two bodyguards, who had just advanced to the peak of Quasi-Immortal Emperor, felt as if their whole bodies were about to explode. Their nerves had lost all sensation and become numb. They had not expected the opponent's power to be so terrifying. In that instant, they felt as if the power of the entire world was crashing into them. It was not even in the same league. But at the critical moment, they wanted to stop, but it was too late.
With a series of loud bangs, the two men were sent flying backwards, crashing into the wall and covered in blood.
