com.google.cloud:google-cloud-pubsub:0.32.0-beta transitively requires com.google.guava:guava:jar:20.0 yet you have overridden Guava with a newer version. You can see it by running mvn dependency:tree:

Based on your pom.xml snippet you should remove your version of Guava unless some other libraries in your project need this newer version.
