You remained chaste on your wedding night, do you really think this holy son is a simp?

But the Fifth Elder was clearly dissatisfied.

He was the Fifth Elder, a powerful figure in the Nascent Soul stage, who usually commanded respect and influence within the sect. When had he ever suffered such a humiliating disgrace?

If word got out that he was being trampled on by a junior, how could he live?

"ah!!!"

The Fifth Elder roared, his eyes turning bloodshot.

His hands gripped the ground tightly, the veins on the back of his hands bulging.

The spiritual energy within his body erupted wildly and recklessly.

"Get up!"

The Fifth Elder roared inwardly, wanting to push the foot off his back and stand up again to regain his dignity.

Multicolored spiritual light flashed wildly on his body; it was his protective true energy burning, making its final struggle.

But it didn't work.

No matter how much he struggled, no matter how much strength he unleashed.

Gu Changyuan's foot seemed to be rooted to his back, remaining completely still.

It didn't even shake once.

It has no meaning other than being laughable.

Gu Changyuan looked down at the old man at his feet who was still struggling desperately.

His eyes were full of mockery.

"Tsk tsk tsk."

"You?"

"You dare to cause trouble for this Holy Son?"

"Who gave you the courage? Fish Leong?"

Although the Fifth Elder did not know who Fish Leong was, he understood the deep-seated sarcasm in her words.

He raised his head, wanting to kill Gu Changyuan with his eyes.

However, when he met Gu Changyuan's disdainful eyes, the anger that had just risen in his heart was instantly extinguished by a bucket of ice water.

Instead, there was a deep sense of powerlessness.

Gu Changyuan's feet were like a towering mountain with an unseen dome.

It was so heavy it made him breathless, so heavy it made him unable to move.

Even with all its might, even by burning its lifeblood, it could not budge an inch.

This is the difference in strength.

An absolute gap.

......

next to.

Lin Chen, who had been lying nearby pretending to be dead, was now completely terrified.

He originally thought that with the arrival of the elders, Gu Changyuan would definitely restrain himself, or even be suppressed by the elders.

In that case, he would still have a chance to turn things around and see Gu Changyuan suffer.

But now...

Seeing this scene before him, Lin Chen felt as if the sky had fallen.

That's the Fifth Elder!

He's a big shot in the sect, a powerful expert in the Nascent Soul stage!

It's rare for them to even meet on a normal day, but now Gu Changyuan is trampling him underfoot. The visual impact of that is a million times stronger than when he was beaten up earlier.

Lin Chen's body trembled uncontrollably, driven by instinctive fear.

Even the elders couldn't withstand Gu Changyuan's wrath and were crippled.

Then what is he, a mere outer disciple, worth?

The anger and desire for revenge that had been in my heart just now were completely suppressed by fear.

Not a single spark remained.

He only wants to do one thing right now.

That is to hide yourself, the deeper the better.

Lin Chen shrank his neck and curled up into a ball.

"He even crippled the Fifth Elder! Is there no justice left? Is there any fairness left?"

"I want to go home... I want to go home..."

Lin Chen doesn't want to think about anything right now.

What protagonist dream, what comeback, what Qin Shuang, what Liu Ruyan.

Get out of here, all of you.

As long as he can survive today, leave this hellish place, and stay away from this demon, I'll do anything for him.

......

Gu Changyuan completely ignored the quail that was already terrified.

His attention was still on the Fifth Elder at his feet.

I have to say, it feels pretty good to step on someone.

Especially when it comes to stepping on those old, arrogant people who usually act superior.

Gu Changyuan's toes wiggled slightly on the Fifth Elder's back.

It's like crushing a cigarette butt.

"Snap!"

Another crisp sound.

The Fifth Elder's spine let out a mournful cry, clearly indicating that it was broken.

"puff!"

The Fifth Elder spat out another mouthful of blood, and his entire body instantly weakened.

The energy that had been struggling just moments before completely dissipated.

He lay on the ground, panting heavily, his eyes unfocused, clearly at his limit.

But Gu Changyuan didn't take him seriously at all.

He looked at the Fifth Elder's twisted and pained old face, at his appearance of wanting to die but being unable to.

Instead of showing any sympathy, they laughed even harder.

That smile was both cruel and sinister.

"Pooh!"

Gu Changyuan suddenly opened his mouth and spat a mouthful of phlegm directly onto the Fifth Elder's face.

It vomited right onto his wrinkled forehead.

insult.

A blatant insult.

For a cultivator, especially an elder in a high position, such an insult is worse than death.

The Fifth Elder was so angry that he trembled all over, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

But he didn't even have the strength to lift his hand to wipe it.

He could only let the saliva stick to his face.

I was so ashamed and indignant that I wanted to die.

This is a true reflection of the Fifth Elder's current state.

If looks could kill, Gu Changyuan would probably be torn to pieces by now.

Unfortunately, a look can't kill.

Only fists can do it.

After Gu Changyuan had his fill of stomping, he finally had time to look up at the other elders.

Those others weren't much better off.

Although Gu Changyuan did not step directly on them.

But the spiritual pressure that enveloped the entire area held them firmly in place.

They knelt on the ground, their hands supporting them, sweat pouring down their faces. They released their spiritual energy as if it were free, using all sorts of magical treasures and talismans, desperately trying to resist the pressure.

But it didn't work.

That kind of pressure is all-encompassing and pervasive.

They were so oppressed that they could hardly breathe, let alone fight back.

When Gu Changyuan's gaze swept over them, the elders all trembled.

That feeling sent chills down my spine and made my scalp tingle.

They instinctively wanted to avoid it and look away.

She didn't dare to look Gu Changyuan in the eye.

That air of authority and the accusatory aura he had just displayed are long gone.

Look at how cowardly they are.

Just to defend against that bit of pressure, he had already used all his strength. Where was the demeanor of an elder?

Gu Changyuan couldn't help but laugh.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Changyuan looked around, his gaze lingering on the faces of each elder for a moment.

With each person he looked at, that person lowered their head a little further.

Until the very end, everyone kept their heads down, and no one dared to utter a sound.

The entire room fell silent.

The only sounds were the rustling of leaves in the wind and the heavy breathing of the elders.

"Weren't you quite talkative just now?"

"Didn't you want me to apologize?"

"Aren't you trying to convict me?"

Gu Changyuan shrugged, his face a mixture of innocence and mockery.

Why aren't you saying anything?

"Are you mute?"

He took another step forward, and the sense of oppression instantly intensified.

Come on.

"Continue."

"Do you still want to cause me trouble now?"
