"Hehehe, you're really arrogant. You'll pay the price for those words later!" the guard said angrily.
He was so angry that his fingers unconsciously clenched into fists.
How dare anyone say that about him? They're asking for trouble!
He immediately made this person pay a heavy price!
He's not an ordinary bodyguard; he won't let anyone bully or humiliate him.
"Alright, I'm really looking forward to seeing just how powerful the City Lord's secret guards are. You mustn't disappoint me!" Gu Changqing said with a faint smile.
He wasn't afraid at all, as if what was about to happen was insignificant!
"Arrogant! You're courting death!" the guard roared in fury.
After he finished speaking, an incomparably sharp sword appeared in his hand, gleaming brightly. With a wave of his arm, a terrifying pressure erupted and raged out. The vast and terrifying aura was like an eternal light, filled with overwhelming killing intent, roaring and surging.
Under this terrifying fluctuation, even the void itself could not withstand it, cracking layer by layer as if glass were shattering, which was extremely frightening. He moved with lightning speed and fiercely stabbed 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 stab him.
In an instant!
With a loud "thud," the guard's sword seemed to have struck an incredibly hard rock. Startled, he thought he had stabbed the wrong thing and quickly opened his eyes to see what had happened.
When he looked closely, he could clearly see that when his sword pierced the other person's body, it couldn't even pierce a single hair on the other person's body. However, his sword was directly bent by a single hair on the other person's body, sparks flew everywhere, and then it exploded into pieces with a series of cracking sounds, collapsing into pieces!
"Damn, I'm a powerful cultivator at the fifth level of the Immortal Emperor realm, and I didn't even manage to scratch a single hair on this person's head. Does this person have some kind of treasure protecting him? Or has he cultivated some kind of indestructible body?" The guard was shocked and secretly wondered to himself.
He was incredibly surprised. He never expected that his sword strike wouldn't even break a hair on his opponent's head. It was truly unbelievable.
He had just threatened to teach this person a lesson, but now things have turned out this way. He really shot himself in the foot.
Isn't this just contradicting yourself?
If there were a crack in the ground, he would really like to crawl into it.
At that moment, he truly felt inferior!
Fortunately, he covered his face, so no one could tell that he was blushing.
Not only the guard, but even Young Master Zhang was shocked and completely dumbfounded.
Holy crap, what's going on? His bodyguards didn't even budge the other side. What's going on? Where did things go wrong?
Young Master Zhang never expected things to turn out this way.
He originally thought the guards would beat the other party half to death.
The result was that they didn't even budge a hair on anyone's head, which is unbelievable.
He even wondered if he was hallucinating.
Compared to the shock of others, Jiang Qingcheng seemed completely unfazed.
She felt this was perfectly normal; in fact, she would have found it abnormal if it weren't for this result.
After all, her husband had never lost before, so it would be surprising if he did.
now!
"Is this all the power of a mere fifth-level Celestial Emperor Tang Tang has? He couldn't even scratch a hair on my head. He's far too weak. I'm truly disappointed. I thought you were incredibly capable, but it seems I overestimated you!" Gu Changqing sneered, his face full of contempt.
The two of them thought that the fifth level of Immortal Emperor was very powerful, but in Gu Changqing's eyes, they were nothing more than trash.
What others consider incredibly powerful, Gu Changqing doesn't even look at.
Let alone a fifth-level Immortal Emperor, so what if he's even more powerful?
He remained fearless, for he was already invincible.
"What? Have you all gone mute? Weren't you all talking non-stop just now, trying to kill me? Why aren't you saying a word now?"
Gu Changqing snorted coldly and said with a sarcastic expression.
"Where did all that arrogance go? What kind of comfort is that? I think it's all show and no substance, just for show, nothing but a bluff. You have absolutely no ability." Jiang Qingcheng smiled smugly, her face equally disdainful.
The guard was enraged when he heard their insults.
"Don't be too smug, don't push your luck. You're celebrating too soon. I just had a bad start, it's nothing serious. It doesn't mean you're better than me. Although you had the upper hand, it's still uncertain who will be stronger in the end."
The bodyguard composed himself and spoke calmly.
Although he was furious inside, he suppressed his anger and remained calm and composed.
The more critical the moment, the more you must remain calm and not let hatred blind you.
Although he had just gotten off to a bad start and suffered some setbacks, this could not defeat his will.
He's a bodyguard, with a very strong mind. How could he lose confidence because of this small mistake?
Moreover, those who are secret guards are most afraid of this kind of despondency, because it will affect the final result.
The more颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a state of being listless, dispirited, or demoralized) one is, the more likely one is to fail.
So he quickly adjusted his negative emotions.
"Exactly, who knows if you just used some tricks or schemes, otherwise our secret guards would never have done that."
Young Master Zhang's face was grim, and he spoke with indignation.
It seemed as if Gu Changqing had really used some underhanded methods.
"Young master, you should at least consider the facts! Which eye of yours saw my husband cheat? Besides, with my husband's strength, why would he need to cheat? Even if he did cheat, it's because he's capable!" Jiang Qingcheng retorted angrily upon hearing the other party's clever arguments and distortion of the truth.
No matter what, her husband did it all for her sake, and she would never stand idly by and let others talk about her husband like that.
"Don't get hung up on the fact that I, Gu, didn't have any schemes or tricks. The key is who wins and whoever wins is the king. If you have any schemes or tricks, you can use them. I'm not stopping you."
Gu Changqing gave a cold laugh and said indifferently.
He didn't want to explain himself to others who were falsely accusing him; he didn't care what others thought of him.
The methods used are irrelevant; what matters is who wins.
