Chapter 2128 - 1955: Guu Qingyang’s Transformation
Immediately, Ye Chen made his move again, grabbing the five people before sending a message to Aben.
Whoosh—
Shortly after, Aben descended from the sky, bringing Guu Qingyang with her, landing in front of Ye Chen: "Master, is there something you need from me?"
Ye Chen smiled and then looked past Aben to Guu Qingyang behind her. In just a few days, Guu Qingyang seemed to have undergone some hidden potential changes—formerly appearing clumsy and ordinary, now exuding a sense of boldness.
It seems that following Aben for these few days led to a significant transformation in Guu Qingyang, changing him subtly from the inside out.
"Qingyang, how do you feel?" he asked Guu Qingyang.
Guu Qingyang took a deep look at Aben’s back, with eyes still somewhat fearful, but heartfelt respect when looking at Ye Chen, saying: "Uncle Ye, my Master took me on a training adventure these past few days, often battling beyond our means against creatures from the Chaos Pure Land. We also engaged in continuous battles with many Heavenly Prides from various major powers. Although my strength is inferior to those Heavenly Prides, often suffering serious injuries and nearly dying dozens of times, after these few days of combat, I feel that I’ve improved a lot and become more adept in battle."

Ye Chen nodded; only through relentless combat can cultivators experience their greatest growth, sharpening themselves to become stronger.
Otherwise, no matter how legendary one’s talent might be, a cultivator ignorant of battle will always be the weakest—easy to defeat.
However, he hadn’t expected that Aben would take Guu Qingyang as her disciple.
Naturally, he wouldn’t question Aben’s decision to accept a disciple, and considering both are from the Dragon Clan, it’s quite normal.
"Come over now; I’ll arrange a few people to be your sparring partners." Ye Chen motioned to Guu Qingyang, who saw that his sparring partners were Jiantian, Tuoba Mo, and other royal clan Super Talents. He froze for a moment, then gave a bitter smile, "Uncle Ye, even for sparring, isn’t this lineup too high-level? Any one of them could easily defeat me; how can we have a fair fight?"
Ye Chen chuckled, "Don’t worry, I’ve sealed their cultivation; they can’t exhibit their powers, they’re almost like ordinary people now."
Upon hearing this, Guu Qingyang’s eyes lit up with radiant brilliance as he licked his lips, almost as if he spotted the perfect prey, "Uncle Ye, is this true? Can I really teach these punks a lesson?"
Ye Chen was startled, feeling that Guu Qingyang seemed different now, casually saying, "Yes."
"Hahaha, great! Usually, I encounter those at higher levels than I am and can’t compete with them; I’ve been displeased for a long time. Now with these few lambs in front of me, I can finally give them a good thrashing." Guu Qingyang licked his lips, showing great excitement, as if a wolf had spotted a flock of lambs.
Ye Chen was somewhat shocked by the transformation Guu Qingyang underwent these days, wondering why he seemed to have become a different person.
He glanced at Aben, who straightforwardly said: "After being frequently hit, a person changes."
Ye Chen pitifully looked at Guu Qingyang, imagining he must have undergone countless hellish training with Aben during his closed-door sessions.
"Hahaha, come on, you bunch of lambs, let me give you a good thrashing," Guu Qingyang laughed excitedly as he charged forward.
"Courting death!" Jiantian, Tuoba Mo, and others had gloomy faces; it would be one thing if it were Ye Chen, but for a young brat to come and ridicule them, it was truly courting death.
They all wanted to act but immediately changed colors, unable to unleash their cultivation due to Ye Chen’s seal.
Boom—
Guu Qingyang launched a punch, promptly giving Jiantian a black eye and sending him flying backward, crashing into the mountain with a loud boom, causing it to tremble violently, almost collapsing.
However, Jiantian only ended up with a black eye, and though his clothes were in tatters, he was not seriously harmed.
Even with their cultivation sealed, Jiantian was still a Super Talented from the Great Power Realm, with an unchanged physical body that remained resilient, making typical attacks ineffective against him.
"Truly a royal clan Super Talented, a top hundred expert on the Earthly List, with a thick skin indeed." Guu Qingyang sighed, but to the ears of the royal clan Super Talented, it sounded incredibly harsh.
Then Guu Qingyang looked at the other royal clan Super Talented, flashing a brilliant smile, but in their eyes, it appeared quite sinister.
"No rush, everyone. We have ample time, can take this slow."
With a bright smile, Guu Qingyang spoke, while the faces of the other royal clan Super Talented were as dark as they could be, anxiously turning to Ye Chen: "Ye Tianchen, what does this mean? Sealing our cultivation to let a young lad bully us; if you dare, unseal our powers. We can slap this kid to death in one blow."
Boom—
Guu Qingyang’s slap sent the royal clan Super Talented who spoke flying a thousand meters, crashing into a mountain and forming a large crater. He quickly flew to the royal clan Super Talented whose eyes sparkled gold from being hit, wearing a pitiful expression: "Oh dear, I heard uncle can slap me to death; I’m really scared—"
As he spoke, he wore a pitiful face. If a girl said those words, they’d surely stir sympathy, but paired with Guu Qingyang’s rugged, sincere face, it appeared nothing but eerie.
Poof—
He landed a punch on the royal clan Super Talented’s eye socket, instantly creating a black eye, shouting, "I’m really scared, terrified you’ll slap me to death; what do I do—"
Two punches later, a panda-like figure emerged, and Guu Qingyang landed a fierce slap on the opponent’s face, launching him skyward with a loud boom, continuing his pitiful act: "Sorry, it wasn’t intentional, just a reflex from being scared; don’t blame me—"
Boom boom boom—
Guu Qingyang kept up his pitiful cries while continuously attacking, with his fists and feet relentlessly landing on the Prince Super Talented, showing no mercy as the royal clan Super Talented bounced around like a ball.
About half an hour later, the royal clan Super Talented landed heavily in front of the other three, battered and bruised, barely clinging to life despite a resilient physical body.
Guu Qingyang stood before the opponent, eyes fixed, intentionally delivering an upward kick to the groin right before everyone’s eyes.
Faintly, a slight crack was heard, and the royal clan Super Talented clutched his groin, overwhelmed with pain, closed his eyes, and fainted away.
