Pop, a thick stack of docunts was thrown in front of Shen Qiang, and Wenren iqiao said coldly, "Congratulations, Shen Qiang, you successfully escaped a ticulously planned hunting operation by a three-star bounty hunter from the platform, and at the sa ti completed a surprisingly clean counterattack."
Clearly sensing that her mood was off, Shen Qiang smiled, casually picked up the stack of docunts, glanced at them, and found that the three cultivators out to hunt him were one three-star and two two-star. He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and said, "Are you sure you're not being sarcastic?"
The beautiful Wenren iqiao retorted with a cold face, "As expected of Heshenghe's boss, the King of Demons renowned in the Cultivation World, it's impressive that even you can tell when I'm being sarcastic. It's admirable, really admirable."
Hearing the words full of sarcasm, Shen Qiang frowned and said, "Can you drop the sarcasm? If you have sothing to say, just say it directly."
Sitting opposite of Shen Qiang, Wenren iqiao sighed, then looked at Shen Qiang with visibly poor emotions and said, "A captain from my combat team sacrificed himself, just two hours ago, because he found out that many bounty hunters had co here."
"You don't think that's my fault, do you?" Shen Qiang raised his eyebrows in shock.
Wenren iqiao said, "It is your fault. Whether it's you or , everyone in this office knows that these bounty hunters ca chasing after you."
Shen Qiang frowned, "Don't be unreasonable. I'm a consultant for the Dragon Group, and soone has sacrificed themselves. I'm not in a good mood either, so you'd better not joke with at this ti. You must understand, I don't owe you or anyone else anything."
"Those bounty hunters are here because of you." Wenren iqiao said, "If you weren't here, my combat team captain wouldn't have t his end."
Shen Qiang furrowed his brows tighter, "So you asked to wait here for three hours until midnight, just to hold accountable? Bla everything on ?"
Wenren iqiao said, "I don't want to put the bla on you, but this matter indeed started because of you. So why don't you go back to Heshenghe, back to the Provincial City?"
Staring into Shen Qiang's eyes, Wenren iqiao surprisingly said, "There, you are like a king, with over three hundred demons and cultivators at your command. Even Blue Scorpion seems to protect you, and the people at the Provincial City branch are familiar with you. You are safe there, so why must you stay in Beijing?"
Hearing this, Shen Qiang got a bit angry.
"Are you still blaming ? Do you think if I wasn't in Beijing, such things wouldn't happen?"
Seeing Shen Qiang's furrowed eyebrows, Wenren iqiao grew more anxious. Compared with Shen Qiang, who only knew soone wanted to hunt him but didn't know who those hunters were, as the regional security officer of the Dragon Group, Wenren iqiao was very clear about the kind of bounty hunters that had co to her jurisdiction.
A three-star hunter is already above the Mixed Elent Realm, and according to the current investigation results, Wenren iqiao had at least found two five-star hunters and seven four-star hunters in her jurisdiction. If they team up, their strength would be unimaginably powerful.
Not only would it cause great destruction, but more importantly, it would endanger Shen Qiang.
This was sothing Wenren iqiao most unwilling to see. However, for Wenren iqiao, persuading Shen Qiang to return to a relatively safer Provincial City to avoid encountering such danger was sothing she couldn't utter no matter what.
Hence, Wenren iqiao thought she could only choose such rhetoric, even if Shen Qiang beca unhappy because of it, as long as he was willing to leave and return to the relative safety of the Provincial City, any misunderstandings could be cleared up in the future.
After all, compared to such misunderstandings and minor conflicts, Shen Qiang's survival was what mattered.
"Think as you wish, but this is reality. In my jurisdiction, there haven't been such a concentrated ergence of bounty hunters in the past ten years, but ever since you arrived, they started to concentrate on you, making feel you're the root cause."
Hearing this, Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow, "This is the most ridiculous case of treating a symptom I've ever heard. I've taken an arrow, you're a doctor, I co to you, you saw off the arrow sticking out and tell the external wound is cured, and for the rest of the problem, I should see an internist?"
Wenren iqiao raised an eyebrow, "How can you be so unreasonable? Haven't I explained it clearly? It's dangerous for you here, please return to your Heshenghe Mountain Villa, that's where you should be."
Shen Qiang, faintly angered, leaned back in his chair, raised an eyebrow slightly, and said calmly, "Wenren iqiao, I think you still don't understand one thing, which is that my coming to Beijing was not because Beijing wanted to co, but because I, Shen Qiang, wanted to co to Beijing."
"Is there a difference?" Wenren iqiao lifted her eyebrows high.
Shen Qiang's brows furrowed, unsure whether it was Wenren iqiao's low emotional quotient or his expression ability that was the problem.
This is like Shen Qiang wanting to be the deputy leader of the Illusion Demolition Group, which was not because the leader of the group offered Shen Qiang the opportunity and appointnt to be the deputy leader, not because he wanted Shen Qiang to be the deputy, but because Shen Qiang didn't trust him and wanted to be deputy, leading to the group having two leaders where there was only one before.
Coming to Beijing is the sa.
The dical University in the Provincial City asked Shen Qiang to co to Beijing as an exchange student, which was only one aspect. With Shen Qiang's finances and resources, whether he wanted the dical University in the Provincial City to change its mind, or simply not co, wouldn't be a problem.
Shen Qiang chose to co to Beijing for his own future plans.
Now hearing Wenren iqiao's words, Shen Qiang's temper flared up rapidly.
Without facing storms, how can you see a rainbow? Without putting in more effort and hard work than others, retreating in the face of danger, avoiding difficulties, what right would you have to stand taller and see further than others?
Moreover, on this long road of cultivation, who has ever seen Shen Qiang take a step back?
"If you can't be the security director, then resign. Don't bla Earth for lacking gravitational pull because you can't pull down shit."
Hearing Shen Qiang's icy words, although Wenren iqiao was worried about Shen Qiang being attacked, she flared up instantly, "What did you say? Did you not understand my words? It's very dangerous here now; we already know there are two five-star hunters around you, seven four-star hunters, and dozens of three-star hunters."
Suddenly gaining understanding that perhaps Wenren iqiao was rely concerned about him, Shen Qiang sighed, but before he could speak, Wenren iqiao continued, "Going back to the Provincial City, you'd save your life. Staying here, you're dood. Do you want to rely on the won around you to protect you?"
Just as his heart softened a bit, trying to ease tense relations, Shen Qiang directly flared up, stood up suddenly, and said coldly, "I, Shen Qiang, may not be the mighty Chu Overlord, but I'm a man capable of standing tall. My business is none of your concern."
