Smiling as he looked at the middle-aged man with powerful cultivation, and then at the voluptuous, beautiful, flower-like Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu beside him, Shen Qiang smiled and said, "Even though this gentleman appears to be extraordinary, I'm sorry, refusing my invitation in front of everyone and inviting my female secretary to dinner instead is unfriendly. I've already taken it as a provocation."
The man smiled, uttered an "oh," and then fell silent.
This interrupted the mont.
The Great Elder of the Qingyun Sword Pavilion had already pulled Sha Jianming to sit down, sending him a ssage.
"Young Sha Hero, please be patient. Today is already the last day of the Treasure Exhibition. At five-thirty in the afternoon, we can reclaim our magical treasures. At that ti, according to our plan, once Shen Qiang steps into the ambush we've set, he will undoubtedly die. So why bother with him now?"
Hearing this, Sha Jianming remained full of resentnt and suddenly raised his voice in anger, "Shen Qiang, don't be arrogant with . Aren't you tough? Didn't you want to duel with ? Just wait until I get back my Evil Spirit Armor, and I'll oblige you!"
Instantly, everyone's eyes lit up.
"The evil spirit within the Evil Spirit Armor is extrely powerful and absolutely ferocious. That Black Blade Youying, although beautiful as a fairy under the moon, might not necessarily win in a real fight."
"Hmm, yes, perhaps the real combat power of the Evil Spirit Armor is even stronger."
Hearing this, Sha Jianming's eyes glead with pride.
At this mont, a female cultivator, looking at the Treasure Exhibition with innocent eyes, burst into laughter, "Is there even a need to compare? Didn't the evil spirit also kneel to Youying?"
As soon as she spoke.
Instantly, countless cultivators in the restaurant stared at her as if asking, "Are you an idiot?"
This made her feel uneasy sitting there.
"Who brought this girl? Does she have any brains? Saying such a thing in public, Sha Jianming must hate her to death, right?"
"Damn, with her talking like that, does Sha Jianming still dare to challenge? If the Evil Spirit and Youying fight, it'll beco clear whether Youying is as powerful as imagined. Don't back down, Young Master Sha, you need to take on Shen Qiang!"
"Damn it, this girl must be brainless. If Young Master Sha doesn't fight Shen Qiang, how can we know Youying's strength?"
The people were displeased.
An increasingly flushed Sha Jianming lost control and roared angrily, "Shut up! My evil spirit is the strongest. Its bowing to Youying was rely a gentleman's gesture!"
As he said this, he pointed at Shen Qiang with his hand and shouted fiercely, "Just wait, tonight, when I retrieve the Evil Spirit Armor, it will be your death date."
Shen Qiang smiled upon hearing this.
Looking at the carefree Shen Qiang, and beside him, the beautiful and shy Kang Luoying.
The Great Elder of the Qingyun Sword Pavilion also beca furious and agreed, "Shen Qiang, arrogance cos at a price. Underestimating Young Sha Hero will lead to bloodshed."
Upon hearing such an obvious threat.
The nurous cultivators present widened their eyes.
Shen Qiang smiled slightly and said, "I advise you all not to provoke , or you won't even know how you died."
Hearing this, Sha Jianming sneered, "Bluff, go ahead and bluff, I, Sha Jianming, keep my word. Once I retrieve the Evil Spirit Armor, I will wash away the humiliation you've brought upon with blood."
Shen Qiang laughed.
But before he could speak further.
A cultivator, sweating profusely, suddenly rushed into the restaurant, widening his eyes and shouting sternly, "Sothing big has happened! The Treasure Exhibition has been robbed! The magical treasures of Hidden Sword Villa, Qingyun Sword Pavilion, Baihua Palace, and Carefree Valley are all gone!"
Instantly, the restaurant fell silent.
On fire with anger, Sha Jianming turned to him and yelled, "Nonsense!"
The sweaty cultivator hastily said, "I'm telling the truth, just now, when we were lined up waiting to see the treasures, the Baihua Palace Master personally opened the door, and when everyone entered, all the other display cabinets were empty, only Heshenghe's exhibits remained!"
"Impossible! Stop trying to deceive , I can feel the Evil Spirit Armor is still there!" Sha Jianming was furious.
At the sa ti, another cultivator rushed in and shouted, "Great Elder, sothing has happened, our treasures have been stolen!"
"Martial Uncle! Our Five Assistant Swords have been stolen!"
The successive reports from the cultivators made the nurous cultivators present gleam with interest.
"Wow, it seems to be true."
"Incredible, who did it?"
"Hahaha, wealth shouldn't be flaunted, that's an old saying from our ancestors. You were showing off, and now you've been robbed, right?"
The many cultivators looked on with teasing smiles.
After all, it wasn't their treasures that were stolen, and they didn't have any to begin with, so upon hearing that the treasures used to show off wealth were lost, the cultivators were overjoyed and delighted.
"This is impossible!" Sha Jianming shouted, grabbing the reporting cultivator by the collar, his veins bulging, "You're damn well lying to , aren't you?"
"It's true, Young Sha Hero. If there's any falsehood, I'm willing to be struck by lightning, and I'll accept any punishnt you give !"
Upon hearing this.
Sha Jianming's face changed dramatically, trembling all over, he shoved the reporting cultivator aside and ran off.
The Great Elder of the Qingyun Sword Pavilion and the person in charge of Hidden Sword Villa quickly stood up and followed.
In the restaurant, the many cultivators dining put down their utensils with gleaming eyes and excited faces, rushing out like a tide.
Shen Qiang, who was smiling with eyes bent, calmly drank his porridge.
Waiting until the restaurant was empty, he then stood with the won and slowly walked out.
At the entrance of the restaurant, Shen Qiang imdiately saw the powerful middle-aged man from before.
He smiled at Shen Qiang and said, "Impressive, I never thought there would be soone in this world who could steal magical treasures from Baihua Palace, under such tight security, without nearly a thousand cultivators noticing."
Shen Qiang smiled slightly and said, "Indeed, soone capable of pulling off such a caper must be a genius, with wisdom, tactics, and strength. So the smart ones know better than to provoke them."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man laughed, glanced at the beautiful Heroic Thief Jiang Hanyang and Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu, and then said.
"But there seems to be no wall in this world without a crack, as the saying goes, 'three feet above the ground, there are deities,' so even the biggest big shots, after doing sothing shady, might need to burn a few sticks of incense."
Shen Qiang laughed, "A greedy heart like a snake trying to swallow an elephant is not good, trying to blackmail a genius is not a wise choice. In the end, it might all co to nothing and even bring about one's own death."
"If the news leaks, even a genius might be beaten to death, right?" the middle-aged man laughed and said, "So why doesn't Mr. Shen consider letting your female secretary comfort a heart that has just been frightened by you?"
Shen Qiang laughed, walked calmly outside, and as he passed by the man, said, "Don't court trouble. The alliance of the four families against Heshenghe isn't a secret. The victor becos king, the defeated beco thieves, that is the eternal truth! So if you're not one of their diehard supporters, stay away; if you are, I don't mind at all sending you to your grave."
