Gu Changqing smiled faintly and said with a smug look, "Is this what a Celestial Emperor-level expert is like? He seems so weak. Anyone who didn't know better would think he was just a cultivator in the Acquired Realm."
Upon hearing this, the old man in green was enraged and said angrily, "Boy, don't be so smug and arrogant. You're just relying on the power of your sword. What's there to be proud of? I was just testing your skills and letting you win. I didn't expect your sword to be so powerful. I shouldn't have been so merciful and let you win. Now I'll show you my power."
"Hahaha, say whatever you want. The process doesn't matter; the result is what matters most. You've seen the result: I, Gu, am stronger than you. As long as you can beat me, you can say whatever you want. Right now, you're no match for me at all. You'd better not say anything more and watch your step." Gu Changqing laughed and said nonchalantly.
No matter how impressive someone's words are, nothing beats a practical demonstration to see who is truly strong and who is weak. Gu Changqing felt that the old man in green was nothing more than a pretty face with no substance, all show and no substance. He looked very imposing, but in reality, he was easily defeated, at least to him.
The old man in green frowned as he looked at Gu Changqing, who was extremely smug and arrogant, showing no regard for him whatsoever. No one had ever dared to disregard him like this before. He was speechless with anger and couldn't utter a word.
Without saying a word, a two-meter-long silver broadsword appeared in his hand. The blade looked extremely sharp, and it was unclear whether it was forged or not. Just a wisp of aura emanating from it was enough to make people feel chilled. Under the sunlight, it glittered and shone brightly, so bright that people couldn't open their eyes.
His treasured sword was passed down from his ancestors. It is said that the more you use it, the smoother and sharper it becomes. Countless people have died by this sword. He is reluctant to take it out to use it. After all, it is a family heirloom that has been passed down for generations before it came to him. Therefore, he cherishes it very much and is thinking of passing it on to the next generation.
"Boy, see the greatsword in my hand? It's far more powerful than your broken sword. How about that, scared now? I advise you to lower your stance, apologize to me, and admit your mistake. I might spare your life, but you only get one chance. Otherwise, you won't even have a chance to regret it," the green-robed old man sneered, speaking with complete confidence.
"Enough with the nonsense. You want me to apologize? No way! You'd better go somewhere else and cool off. I'm more interested in seeing if your big knife is as terrifying as you say!"
"Good lad, you'll pay the price for your arrogance in a moment. Take this!" The old man in green sneered, his face full of anger.
He then raised his two-meter-long sword and swung it fiercely at Gu Changqing's forehead.
In an instant, an endless pressure swept across the entire land, causing space to warp and time to shatter, creating an extremely terrifying scene.
"Hmph, just trash!" Gu Changqing sneered, speaking with utter disdain. He remained motionless, letting the old man in green slash at him without retaliating.
In an instant, the blade flashed, as beautiful as fireflies, and with a loud "bang," it appeared out of nowhere.
The old man in green was surprised to find that his ancestral sword had broken apart, instantly shattering into pieces that fell to the ground with a clang.
My God, how could this be? This is impossible! How could my ancestral sword have turned into a pile of scrap metal and become garbage?
The old man in green was greatly shocked. He stared at Gu Changqing in astonishment, as if he had seen some kind of monstrous beast. What was the background of this young man? He looked so ordinary, how could he have such great power?
My God! What kind of strange cultivation technique does this person practice? His body is billions of times stronger than reinforced concrete, and indestructible.
Countless innocent souls had died under his ancestral broadsword in the past. It was incredibly powerful and sharp. He never expected to encounter such a thing today. It was just a pity that his ancestral treasured sword was gone just like that.
At this moment, besides feeling deeply shocked, the old man in green felt a surge of anger rising in his heart, and his hatred for Gu Changqing intensified.
In contrast, Gu Changqing was completely unharmed, not even a hair on his head. He looked down at the green-robed elder with disdain and said, "What ancestral treasure sword? The quality is terrible. You treat this as a treasure? Have you never seen a treasure before? Any sword I casually brandish is a hundred or even a thousand times more powerful than your ancestral sword. Why don't you beg me? If you make me happy, I'll give you a treasure sword."
In truth, Gu Changqing looked down on the old man in green. In his eyes, this man was nothing but trash, with such an old age and the empty title of Immortal Emperor, he was still no match for him.
The father and son watching from the sidelines, along with the chef, were all utterly astonished by what they were seeing. They were dumbfounded, as if they were possessed. They never imagined they would have the chance to witness such a spectacular scene today. It was truly amazing, even more exciting than watching a play. This was a real-life battle, as if they were right there in the middle of it.
"Don't be too happy yet. This is nothing. You can't say I've lost until I admit defeat. It's not over yet. I still have a chance to win until the very last moment. Besides, I didn't even use my full strength just now. I was just playing around and didn't take it seriously at all. If I were serious, I would have already utterly defeated you and made you beg for mercy on your knees." The green-robed old man was very stubborn and refused to admit defeat.
"You're so shameless! You can't beat him, so why make so many excuses? You're so hypocritical and disgusting. Husband, this old man won't give up until he's completely defeated. Today we must beat him until he's convinced of his superiority and begs for mercy on his knees. He was so rude to me just now, it makes me angry just thinking about it. Husband, you must avenge me." Jiang Qingcheng sneered at the sight and couldn't help but mock the old man in green. She then gave Gu Changqing a special instruction.
The thought of that old man's rude remarks, provocations, and flirtations, along with his desire for her to submit to him, filled her with disgust and anger. Her outburst at him finally released all her pent-up resentment.
"Don't worry, I will definitely avenge you and make him regret offending us." Gu Changqing smiled slightly and said calmly.
"Yes, my husband, I believe you." Jiang Qingcheng nodded with great satisfaction.
