Upon hearing Ji Liangchuan's words, everyone present felt sowhat embarrassed, especially Yan Xianghui. Initially, he brought up Shen Qiang just to show off, since Shen Qiang has beco such a sensation, practically a legend in the Cultivation World.
So, anyone who could step on Shen Qiang must naturally be extraordinary.
But to his surprise, the previously amiable Ji Liangchuan suddenly changed his deanor upon hearing Shen Qiang's na, first offering to verify it by phone, then claiming that if it was Shen Qiang, he would be finished.
It was clear that Ji Liangchuan did not believe Yan Xianghui had the capability whatsoever.
With so many cultivators present, Yan Xianghui felt disgraced, and he sneered, "Oh, now that you ntion it, I rember you know Shen Qiang well. Your girlfriend was even snatched away by him, so you two must be good brothers."
The small entanglent between Ji Liangchuan, known as Ji Qi Shao, and Shen Qiang was well-known in the Cultivation World, so naturally, everyone understood Yan Xianghui was mocking Ji Liangchuan.
However, much to their surprise, Ji Liangchuan simply smiled and said indifferently, "Shen Qiang is my dear friend, and he's very important to , so you best consider your words before speaking. Although the Five Tigers of Cultivation are remarkable, they still cannot surpass my friend."
"And you needn't use sarcasm to show disrespect. You must understand, if it weren't for your uncle, you're not qualified to sit at the sa table with ."
These words instantly made Yan Xianghui's face flush red.
Xi Qianng hurriedly tried to smooth things over and said, "Xianghui! Quickly apologize to Qi Shao." Then he cheerfully said, "Indeed, Qi Shaoye is loyal, willing to help friends without hesitation—a true hero. Xianghui is rely thoughtless, it's just a misunderstanding."
Just as he finished speaking.
Ji Liangchuan was about to smile when Yan Xianghui, face red, harshly said, "I know Shen Qiang's strength very well. If it's a one-on-one, I can easily crush him. So Ji Qi Shao, stop praising him. If he's not Nightmare, fine; if he is, I'll make sure he has no burial place."
Listening to this, Ji Liangchuan's eyebrows furrowed sharply, and at this mont, Xi Qianng stood up urgently and said sternly, "Yan Xianghui, how can you talk so recklessly? You must apologize imdiately."
Yan Xianghui heard this and grumbled indignantly, "Different paths cannot consult together."
Having said that, he turned and left with a flick of his sleeve.
Xi Qianng quickly apologized to Ji Liangchuan, speaking polite words like 'children are thoughtless' and 'lack of guidance' and so on.
After Yan Xianghui left, Ji Liangchuan couldn't vent his anger on Xi Qianng, so clearly the matter would end unresolved.
"Pah, what a thing!" Yan Xianghui spat while leaving.
He completely failed to notice that as he passed by, a pair of eyes was watching him.
"He was clearly punched away by but understated it as lightly resolved; Yan Xianghui's bragging stance is just too ordinary." Shen Qiang thought to himself, then focused his attention on the guests at Xi Qianng's table.
At this table, there were fifteen people in total. Except for Yan Xianghui and Ji Liangchuan, all had Cultivation at the Dao Fruit Stage.
Their strength was overwhelmingly greater than that of ordinary first-class sects.
Even a super first-class Family or Sect would struggle to have so many super strong cultivators, and even if they did, it would be hard to gather them.
But Xi Qianng managed to do so with his wide-ranging connections.
In such circumstances, trying to directly rush over and kill him was virtually impossible; surrounded and besieged by thirteen Dao Fruit Stage experts, Shen Qiang didn't believe he could escape unhard.
So with a flick of his mind, Shen Qiang quietly activated the Plague Source, releasing various bacteria toward Xi Qianng.
Boom!
A terrifying True Yuan burst from Xi Qianng's body.
"He's here, he's here!"
Amid Xi Qianng's roar, the True Yuan of nurous cultivators surged.
"Is it Nightmare?"
"Where? I didn't sense anything!"
"Uh... Brother Xi, are you overreacting? I really didn't feel anything."
While the cultivators were puzzled, Xi Qianng's eyes glead as he scanned the restaurant in the hotel and said in a deep voice, "I won't be mistaken; he's here, approaching with strange powers, I've repelled him but will find him!"
Boom!
Short hair and clothes fluttered without wind as Xi Qianng, his True Yuan instantly enveloping the entire hotel.
anwhile.
Sneaking along beside a security guard, Shen Qiang silently followed him downstairs.
"Impressive, so that's the use of the Dao Fruit Barrier? To sense and block even the approach of bacteria, condensed True Yuan solid as substance, like the Golden Bell Shield—such a troubleso fellow." Shen Qiang murmured to himself upon leaving the hotel.
At this mont, the tiny and exquisite Golden Cicada appeared on Shen Qiang's shoulder, softly and charmingly said, "Master, this guy is hard to kill; there are so many strong people around him, it's frightening."
Seeing Shen Qiang silent, seemingly thoughtful, the charming Golden Cicada softly said, "Moreover, television shows depict assassinations as silent affairs, your probing alerts him yet again, is this repeated snake-scaring really beneficial?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang slightly smiled, then calmly said, "Xi Qianng is not soone who enjoys waiting passively; he will retaliate, and when a person concentrates fully wanting to attack, they unintentionally reveal weaknesses."
Golden Cicada paused, confused.
anwhile, due to the clash of words between Yan Xianghui and Ji Liangchuan, plus the arrival of Nightmare, the restaurant's patrons in the hotel lost so enthusiasm for feasting and drinking.
Afterward, the nurous cultivators casually finished their als and returned with Xi Qianng to his residence.
Although staying to rest at the hotel might have been better for these punch helpers, as they had co to support, the battles between cultivators often are decided in an instant, so they naturally followed Xi Qianng closely.
Xi Qianng's residence was sizable, a luxurious three-story villa.
Despite plenty of rooms, it was impossible for everyone to have one.
After arranging simply, Xi Qianng excused himself back to his room, standing at the window, glancing at the cultivators in cars outside, his gaze grew increasingly cold.
"This Nightmare cos to kill because of those girls, interesting. Yet he overestimates his own abilities; I've already driven off the powerful cultivators, the rest are not to be feared. Now I'm impervious to attack—even Immortals can't kill ."
"Therefore the ti has co to retaliate against this Nightmare. He cos for those girls, so I'll let him watch helplessly as I sell them, what can he do? Outside, these self-righteous cultivators are fooled and played with by . How could they guess that while they protect , I can sell the girls without a care!"
