The woman raised her eyebrows with a smile: "Do you really think that Wenren iqiao has the ability to compete with Qian Shanxue? Don't forget, her bounty is less than a quarter of Qian Shanxue's on the platform."
The man laughed: "Yes, that's because she always loses to Qian Shanxue by just a little bit, her sharpness overshadowed, like a shadow under the scorching sun, causing the people in the Dark World to overlook her unintentionally. But once Qian Shanxue falls, as long as we provide a little guidance, in half a month Wenren iqiao can replace her."
The woman laughed: "So you've shifted your affections now, and think Shen Qiang is more precious than Qian Shanxue?"
The man laughed: "Don't say it so sentintally. The crux of the matter is, Qian Shanxue can be replaced, because Wenren iqiao is equally beautiful, also from the Dragon Group, equally fierce and unparalleled. But Shen Qiang is irreplaceable; he is a cultivator who established his Foundation with Essence Soul, carries a demon aura, recognized as 'one of their own' by those demons, which makes him the King of Demons."
"The big boss of Heshenghe, skilled in Alchemy, the Dragon Group's sole Security Advisor, no one can replace his position."
The woman smiled: "You just don't want anyone completing the mission because that would an handing over the Jade Finger Sword and all that money."
The man glanced up at the dazzling sun that made him feel dizzy and sighed: "Bounty Hunters always need a few great targets to be motivated, that's why we have the Ten-Person Protection Plan. After all, as long as they don't die, the items and money with bounties on them belong to us."
The woman laughed: "That's quite despicable."
The man laughed: "It's kindness; their survival ans that people from the Dark World never dare to boldly co out, therefore the bounty on them should naturally be the reward for maintaining world peace."
The woman laughed: "Ten-Person Protection Plan, Shen Qiang is not qualified."
The man chuckled: "But he has the potential."
The woman hesitated and said: "Is he very dangerous now? Logically, a two billion bounty isn't enough to make top-tier hunters target him, after all, he isn't an unknown entity."
The man chuckled: "Now at least a hundred bounty hunters have accepted the task regarding Shen Qiang. What they are truly greedy for in their hearts isn't just the bounty, but the Black Blade Youying and that Evil Spirit Armor."
"So when considering targeting Shen Qiang, what's the harm in taking on another mission? If successful, not only can they get the Black Blade, but also the Jade Finger Sword, and even elevate their hunter platform level. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"
The woman laughed, looking at the burly man: "Everyone has greed, but one should weigh whether they have the capability."
"Among those who have taken the task to kill Shen Qiang, there are 33 experienced four-star hunters, and even the five-star Illusion Demolition Group." The burly man raised his eyebrows: "Plus nearly a hundred three-star bounty hunters, they will find the opportunity to tear Shen Qiang to pieces, so personally, I think the platform can make an exception for him."
"He is a golden boy, with cultivation progress unmatched by many. Though, his bounty is already the highest among under-thirties in the cultivation world. If passed a few more years, Shen Qiang's bounty will certainly beco astronomical, so as long as he doesn't die, the wealth and magical treasures bounted on him can all be at our disposal. That's why I think..."
"I reject your proposal." The woman interrupted rather gruffly: "Everything must be according to the rules. If he is truly, as you say, an infinitely potential golden boy, he naturally has a way to handle the problems he should solve."
"If he easily just perishes, then what's the aning of his existence?" The woman remarked calmly: "I don't mind the hunter platform protecting those big figures tied to the Cultivation World's stability, but Shen Qiang isn't qualified yet."
The man hesitated and said: "He's the King of Demons, as long as he's around, the havoc demons wreak in different areas will greatly diminish."
The woman laughed: "You don't need to say more. No wonder you brought the Jade Finger Sword to show today, clearly you have such intentions. Now you can leave. Platform rules are rules, unless Shen Qiang's bounty from the Dark World enters the top ten, otherwise he is not eligible to beco our protection target, that's it."
Looking at the disappointed-eyed man, the woman smiled: "Moreover, if soday I feel the urge, who knows, maybe I'll go for the Black Blade Youying, if he dares to resist, maybe I'll finish him easily."
anwhile, in Shanghai, at the Dragon Group headquarters.
In the eting room.
Nurous Dragon Group officers looked at Shen Qiang, ranked third on the high-risk mber list, all sighed together, with eyes full of admiration and so worry.
"Everyone should be aware of Shen Qiang's situation, the information should all be on file. He is a genius, an extraordinary genius. In just six months, he established Heshenghe, and in a little over half a year, from an ordinary man with zero Foundation, he beca a Yang God Stage expert."
"This is an unprecedented exception in the cultivation world. No one has cultivated faster than him. Not only that, there is evidence that his cultivation has not only entered the middle stage of the Yang God Realm but is rapidly advancing on the path of a powerhouse in the Mixed Elent Realm."
"But now, he has encountered major trouble."
The image of a bounty hunter platform appeared on the projection screen on the podium.
The officer standing beside the screen said: "Through certain special channels, the news we obtained shows that at least a hundred three-star bounty hunters have taken the task to hunt Shen Qiang, and the minimum standard to be a three-star bounty hunter is reaching the Mixed Elent Realm."
"This ans that Shen Qiang is facing enemies whose cultivation far surpasses his."
After signaling, the screen image switched.
The officer beside the screen said: "The most troubleso among them is the Illusion Demolition Group, which is a team of bounty hunter; their mbers are usually spread across various locations, only gathering when a task is accepted, completing the task and then dispersing again."
"In the last hundred years, the group hasn't failed a single task, and based on our current information, they have seven mbers, all possessing Dao Fruit Stage or higher strength – super powerhouses. They are wild and disdain ordinary bounty tasks, leaving no survivors whenever executing tasks."
"Moreover, due to their extraordinary strength, aside from the fact that they all wear a mysterious mask, no one knows their true identities, but it's clear they have targeted Shen Qiang now. What do you think we should do?"
Upon hearing this, one person raised a hand and, after receiving permission, stood up and said with a cold expression: "Shen Qiang is the irreplaceable Security Advisor of the Dragon Group, so what we should do, facing the Illusion Demolition Group, is execute without leniency!"
