Watching his mother happily chatting with Lv Shuyao while preparing dumpling fillings, Shen Qiang smiled and said coldly, "No need, I'll handle this matter. Just pay attention to the surroundings of our ho."
Then he hung up the phone.
Shen Qiang cheerfully walked over to Bai Jiao's side, whispering in her ear, "It seems like soone is outside causing trouble. You stay at ho with Chu Qing, Xiu Ju, Kang Luoying, Jiang Hanyang, Ke Bizhu, and Jing Xiangwei. I'll take Xu Nan and Ye Guyun for a walk outside to see what they're up to."
Bai Jiao smiled and said, "No problem."
Receiving a response, Shen Qiang smiled and walked out. As he passed by Xiu Ju, he whispered, "I have to leave for a bit, watch for any evidence."
Xiu Ju's eyes turned cold.
anwhile, after instructing Ke Bizhu, Shen Qiang forcefully dragged Ye Guyun along. Xu Nan calmly followed, and together they left the house. It was the ti of countless lights from hos.
Lanterns swayed gently in the wind.
Round circles of light wobbled on the ground.
A breeze blew, tiny snowflakes accompanied by a cold wind, stirring the spirit.
He glanced at the two people in the small store across the street, who were closely monitoring the Shen Family's situation.
Shen Qiang, completely unconcerned, released his True Yuan.
Imdiately, in his Divine Sense, Shen Qiang clearly detected several figures rapidly approaching.
The night wind carried the sporadic sound of firecrackers.
Breathing in the cold, knife-like air, a devilish smile appeared on Shen Qiang's lips.
"Seems like they haven't been taught a sufficient lesson. In that case, let them truly experience the power of the King of Demons."
Chuckling softly, Shen Qiang turned around, leading the two won calmly towards the fields outside the village.
Watching clearly, the two of them exchanged glances, their eyes flashing with shock.
The small store owner, in awe, said, "As expected of our boss! He only brought Ye Guyun and Xu Nan, thinking he can face those cultivators? Leaving Chu Qing, Ke Bizhu to protect his parents? Surrounded by strong enemies, yet treating them as nothing, walking leisurely, that's such audacity!"
The distribution center owner, equally shocked, nodded, saying, "Those in the Cultivation World always think our boss's rise is just due to good luck, yet they completely misunderstand the real boss. Regardless of cultivation, just this spirit alone makes the boss a heroic figure, incomparable to those frogs at the bottom of a well."
anwhile, about a kiloter away from Shen Qiang's ho.
Two n, standing tall on the roof of a building by the road, wearing trench coats and gas masks, were staring in the direction of Shen Qiang.
"What's the boss's intention? He said he took the task to hunt Shen Qiang but doesn't want us to act, only to observe? What are we supposed to see? Does he really think Shen Qiang is that guy?"
The other person calmly said, "The figure doesn't match, that guy was shorter than Shen Qiang. Even if Shen Qiang's height has spiked in the past year, the age doesn't fit. Since that mission ten years ago, that guy has never been seen again."
"If Shen Qiang is indeed rumored among cultivators to be the Nightmare, then it might be possible for him to be that guy's successor. Given the current situation, he and that guy share many similarities — excellent dical skills and poison use. It seems like a direct lineage."
The burly figure who spoke first said, "He'd better be that Nightmare, or I won't be polite to him."
At this mont, the other person's figure suddenly vanished.
"Let's move closer."
...
The cold wind was biting, the harshness like a blade.
Every ho was lit, mingling with sparse firecracker sounds, giving the New Year's Eve an inexplicable murderous aura hidden within the joy.
Yet, whether it was Ye Guyun or Xu Nan, they followed Shen Qiang very calmly.
This wasn't just because they were strong, but also because the present Shen Qiang was no longer that waste ridiculed by the Cultivation World, but a true... strong!
Standing by the river, in a snow-covered area.
Shen Qiang waited quietly, and the two won said nothing.
After a full twenty minutes, the silent Shen Qiang suddenly raised his brows, and shouted into the darkness, "Co out, I know you're already here."
With Shen Qiang's calm voice.
Two or three dozen cultivators silently appeared around Shen Qiang and the two won, their True Yuan fluctuations indicating that their cultivations were extrely powerful.
The New Year's Eve sky lacked a bright moon, everything was incredibly dark.
Yet even so, upon a glance, Ye Guyun burst into laughter.
"Oh, they're all wearing gas masks. They look so unsightly."
Hearing Ye Guyun's words, Xu Nan said in a deep voice, "Looks like they're prepared, Shen Qiang, they're guarding against you poisoning them."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang smiled.
Almost at the sa ti, in the darkness, a low male voice ca from a gas mask.
"Shen Qiang, since you brought us here, you should understand our purpose for coming. Hand over your Storage Ring and those Magical Treasures, and we'll spare your family, leaving you with a whole corpse."
Shen Qiang laughed, his tone in the wind sounding rather helpless, "Why do you never understand that it's not my luck that makes all the demons submit, but my strength."
Hearing this, the person laughed, "Shen Qiang, don't be arrogant, okay? Your cultivation is only at the Yang God Realm. Even if you use Demon Techniques, your cultivation can at most contend with a Mixed Elent Realm expert, so your real strength lies only in your poison skills and possessing incredible magical treasures."
"But these don't scare us. In the Baihua Palace battle, your poison skill's weakness was exposed. With just a few hundred yuan gas mask, your poison skill was nullified. And here isn't Heshenghe, you need to leave those powerful female demons to protect your parents, so now you're all alone, there's no way you can defeat us."
In the woods by the river not far away, two n wearing gas masks calmly watched everything.
The burly man slightly frowned, "These are all skillful people. Except for one whose cultivation is also at the Yang God Realm, who looks like he's trying to fish in muddied waters, the others' cultivation is above the Mixed Elent Realm, and there's even a guy at the Dao Fruit Stage among them."
"Everyone used gas masks, indicating they did their howork before coming here. Now they outnumber you, ten to one, with two even free to watch on the side, so the outco is obvious without guessing; Shen Qiang will definitely lose. I don't understand why the boss sent us here during New Year to watch this."
"Shh!" The other one abruptly raised his brow and transmitted, "This feeling isn't quite right, let's go..." Saying so, his figure flickered, appearing several hundred ters away. The following burly man arrived almost simultaneously, standing still and imdiately asking, "What's wrong?"
Shh! The other signaled for him to keep quiet.
anwhile, in the wind, Shen Qiang's indifferent chuckle sounded, "If you think a gas mask is enough to render helpless, then tonight, you're destined to pay with blood."
