The mother and son nodded, but they couldn't help feeling scared. They were really scared. They had suffered a lot and endured a lot of hardship on their escape journey.
Unexpectedly, the enemy relentlessly pursued them, determined to wipe out the mother and son completely, making survival extremely difficult.
Outside the airship.
"Young man, why make things difficult for us? We're just doing this for money, there's no need to come to blows. As long as you agree to let us take the mother and child back to report, we definitely won't make things difficult for you," the leader of the men in black said with a forced smile and a sincere expression.
"Look at what you're saying. You insist that I hand over the mother and son, aren't you just making things difficult for me? I've already promised to protect them. What do you say we should do?" Gu Changqing said with a faint smile.
"Boss, let's talk in private. This kid is the protector of this mother and child. If we don't take care of him first, we might not be able to get rid of them today." At this moment, the boss's subordinate called the man aside and said with ill intent.
“That’s right, boss. Let’s not waste our breath on him. Whoever gets in our way, we’ll teach them a lesson. I think this kid is stubborn and uncooperative. He just wants to meddle and interfere. Why should we be polite to him? Let’s just kill him.” Another of the boss’s men in black agreed.
"I understand what you two are saying. If he won't listen to reason or threats, then this is the only option." The leader in black also spoke his mind.
The reason he didn't resort to force at first was that he hoped to resolve the issue peacefully. If that didn't work, he would have no choice but to use force. Judging from the current situation, a peaceful resolution is unlikely.
Gu Changqing found these men in black quite amusing. Did they think they couldn't hear him just because they were far away? His superhuman eyesight and hearing weren't just for show.
"Hey, are you guys done talking?" Gu Changqing said with a faint smile.
"You brat, what's it to you?" the black-clad man's henchman said rudely.
“Young man, do you really want to oppose us? We are strangers and have no grudges against each other. Why must we resort to violence? If you want to back out now, it’s not too late. Otherwise, you might not have the chance.” The leader of the men in black said calmly.
They had gone out on a mission to find the mother and child, and he didn't want to cause any trouble. It seemed he couldn't avoid this trouble today.
"An opportunity? I never asked for this opportunity. I do want to give you one. If you stop now and leave obediently, I can pretend nothing happened and let you leave safely. This opportunity is only available once, and it won't come again." Gu Changqing said with a faint smile and a serious tone.
"Boss, did you hear that? This kid is deliberately trying to mess with us. He has to die today, or we won't be able to catch that mother and child," the boss's subordinate urged again.
"It seems there's no room for negotiation between us. In that case, don't blame us for being ruthless," the leader of the men in black said resolutely.
After he finished speaking, a long spear appeared in his hand. With a swing of his arm, a terrifying killing intent erupted and raged out. The vast and terrifying aura was like a tornado, filled with overwhelming killing intent, howling and surging.
Under this terrifying fluctuation, the void was about to collapse, cracking layer by layer as if a mirror were shattering, which was extremely frightening. He moved with lightning speed and stabbed fiercely towards Gu Changqing.
Seeing this, Gu Changqing smiled faintly, his heart calm and unperturbed, not taking it to heart at all. He stood there motionless, letting the man's spear assassin come over.
Gu Changqing sensed the approach and saw that the leader of the men in black was only at the Dragon Transformation Realm. In Gu Changqing's eyes, he was like an ant, insignificant and not worth mentioning. He could crush the man with a single hair. The two henchmen beside the man in black were even lower in cultivation, only at the Cave Heaven Realm. They were utterly trash. To be honest, Gu Changqing was too lazy to fight them. It would be beneath his dignity. Therefore, Gu Changqing did not intend to kill them all at once. That would be too boring. It would be better to play with them for a while.
In an instant, the spear of the leader in black thrust forward.
With a "bang," the spear of the leading man in black seemed to have struck an incredibly hard diamond. He was taken aback, thinking he had stabbed the wrong thing. Incredible, he quickly opened his eyes to see what had happened.
As he examined the area closely, he could clearly see that when the spear struck the opponent, it couldn't even bend a single hair on the opponent's body, yet the spear tip was bent by a single hair, sparks flying everywhere. Then, the spear tip exploded into fragments, crumbling into pieces. And that wasn't all; he was immediately sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
"Damn, what's going on? I didn't even manage to scratch a single hair on this person's head. Could it be that this person has cultivated some kind of indestructible body, impervious to swords and spears?" the leader of the men in black wondered to himself.
He was incredibly surprised. He had used all his skills, but in the end, he hadn't even managed to break a hair on the other's head.
My God, how could this happen? This young man is completely unharmed. He must have used some trick. Otherwise, with the boss's strength, things shouldn't be like this!
now!
Gu Changqing was already used to this scene and found it commonplace. With his current cultivation level, he could easily crush the other party without even lifting a finger. However, Gu Changqing did not intend to do so; killing someone in one go would be too boring.
"Your strength isn't even enough to knock a hair off a hair on my head. To be honest, you're really too weak," Gu Changqing said, stroking his chin with amusement.
The leader of the men in black turned red and white in turns, feeling extremely ashamed. He did not utter a rebuttal, because he was powerless to refute it. The facts were right in front of him, and any further words would be futile.
On the contrary, his two henchmen couldn't stand Gu Changqing's humiliation and said angrily, "You brat, you must have used some tricks to scheme against my boss."
“Yes, that must be it. No wonder you were so confident. You were waiting for us here!” another henchman in black said without a doubt.
"Hehehe, it doesn't matter whether I have any magical treasures or not. What matters is that I won and he lost, that's all. If you have any divine weapons or powerful artifacts, you can bring them out and use them. I won't say anything." Gu Changqing smiled faintly, too lazy to explain so much to them. Even if he did, these people wouldn't believe him.
"You brat, don't be so arrogant. We haven't given up yet. We were just caught off guard and you won by luck. Be careful, you might not be so lucky next time," the black-clad henchman said angrily.
