After he finished speaking, a luminous pearl appeared in Gu Changqing's hand, instantly making the entire cave incredibly bright.
It was at this moment that the two of them finally saw the monster's true form.
The monster was terrifying in appearance, with rough, thick skin all over its body. Its skin was dark green, as if it were a mixture of stone and dark green weeds. Only its eyes were red, and they were as fiery as flames. Its mouth was full of serrated fangs, which made people tremble with fear and dare not approach.
If an ordinary person saw such a terrifying-looking monster, they would be scared out of their wits and run away in terror.
But Gu Changqing was different. After seeing the monster, he wasn't afraid at all and even showed a faint smile.
Although he didn't know what the monster was, Gu Changqing had already sensed that its cultivation level was only at the early stage of the Great Emperor realm, which was not worth mentioning at all.
To be honest, Jiang Qingcheng could easily handle this monster, but considering her health condition, Gu Changqing decided to take matters into his own hands. Even if Jiang Qingcheng were healthy, he couldn't let his wife do it; how could a grown man like him stand idly by and watch his wife take action?
"No wonder you stay in this dark and gloomy cave all day long. It turns out you're too ugly and embarrassed to be seen by people." Gu Changqing smiled slightly and said with a disdainful look.
Upon hearing this, the monster flew into a rage. After roaring, it said furiously, "You mortal are too arrogant! The reason I stayed in this cave was to cultivate, not what you said. How dare you humiliate me like this? You're asking for death!"
Gu Changqing smiled faintly and said sarcastically, "I have never known what it means to court death, but I know that you are about to die."
"Hehehe, you've got quite the nerve, kid. Do you know how powerful I am? My cultivation is at the Great Emperor Realm. No one who enters this cave has ever escaped. How about that, scared now? Quickly kowtow and admit your mistake. If I'm satisfied, I might let you off the hook and spare your life." The monster said dismissively and arrogantly.
Because it couldn't sense the young man's cultivation level at all, it subconsciously assumed that its own cultivation level was far above the young man's, and that the young man was definitely no match for it. So it spoke arrogantly.
Actually, he wasn't wrong to think that way. If it had encountered someone else, it might have killed them easily. But it didn't realize that the young man in front of it was not someone to be trifled with.
"Just a mere emperor, is he that great? What's so special about him?"
Gu Changqing glanced at him speechlessly, then suddenly stuck out his middle finger and gave him the middle finger!
The monster's face darkened upon hearing this. This young man was going too far and was extremely rude. He actually gave him the middle finger. It was outrageous. Did he have a death wish?
It instantly flew into a rage, its fury reaching its peak. No one had ever given it the middle finger before; this was the first time. This young man had actually dared to give it the middle finger so rudely, it was so angry it felt like its lungs were about to explode!
The monster roared furiously, "You mortal, are you looking for death? You actually gave me the middle finger! If I don't kill you today, I won't be able to quell my hatred. Do you even know how to spell 'death'?"
Gu Changqing smiled faintly and said calmly, "Stop talking nonsense and get to the fight. Today, I, Gu, will show you what death really means!"
"You mortal, today I'll make sure you die a horrible death, and you'll regret it before you even have a chance. Not only that, after I kill you, I'll also take your wife for myself," the monster said angrily, speaking in a human voice.
After saying this, the monster suddenly changed, its body instantly transforming into an incredibly tall, black-haired man in a dark green robe.
The monster that transformed into human form was indeed as ugly as ever, making one want to vomit.
"As expected of an ugly monster, letting you live another day in this world is a waste of air," Gu Changqing said with a cold laugh.
To be honest, he had never seen anything so ugly before, and it disgusted him.
"Arrogant brat, how dare you humiliate me! You're asking for death!" the monster said angrily, its eyes wide with rage.
After saying that, he turned and headed fiercely towards Gu Changqing without saying another word.
In the blink of an eye, the monster rushed in front of Gu Changqing. Its aura exploded out in full force, which was extremely terrifying. The earth shook violently!
Gu Changqing sneered, completely unfazed, and stood there quietly without even blinking, as if he hadn't seen the monster at all.
Seeing Gu Changqing's calm demeanor, the monster became even angrier. It thought to itself, "What are you pretending for at a time like this? Do you think I don't exist?"
He didn't care about anything else and punched Gu Changqing in the chest without hesitation.
"boom!"
With a single punch, the air currents exploded, and the terrifying shockwave was as horrifying as a tornado.
He had planned to unleash that punch and then sit back and watch what would happen to this mortal.
But after he threw that punch, before he could even see the miserable state of others, he was stunned.
When his fist hits someone, it's as if he's struck a diamond.
"Ahhh!"
He was instantly blasted hundreds of meters away, crashing heavily into the cave, and then falling heavily to the ground, spitting out red wine, which was quite conspicuous.
He felt excruciating pain, as if his bones were about to shatter. The pain was so intense that it was almost certain his hand was broken, as could be guessed from the look of agony on his face.
Actually, he should feel fortunate at this moment. At least he is not dead. Fortunately, his cultivation is strong enough. If it were someone else, that fist and his entire arm would probably be ruined.
On the other hand, Gu Changqing was completely unharmed, without any pain or abnormalities.
The monster was utterly astonished by what it saw, its face filled with disbelief. It simply couldn't believe what it was witnessing.
He even thought he was seeing things, but he preferred to believe it rather than accept the fact.
My God, what's going on? I, the mighty Emperor, can't even defeat this young man? Are you kidding me? If word got out, probably no one would believe it.
The monster became so engrossed in its own imagination that it couldn't pull itself out.
Gu Changqing acted as if nothing had happened, looking completely unconcerned, as if he wasn't the one who had just been beaten. If outsiders saw this, they probably wouldn't believe that the person who was beaten was so calm, while the person who did the beating looked completely bewildered. It was really strange.
However, there were no outsiders here except Jiang Qingcheng, and she was already used to seeing this kind of scene, so she was not surprised at all, because all of this was within her expectations.
at the same time!
The three men had just heard a terrifying scream and were immediately filled with fear, feeling their scalps tingle.
