Having returned ho, the sky had already turned dark.
He entered the house.
Shen Qiang silently wanted to go upstairs.
At that mont, the once almost silent for an entire day puppet couturier, standing behind Shen Qiang, spoke in a calm tone, "Although I'm not sure how you confird my identity, nor am I clear about what you ultimately intend to do, I must remind you that I indeed will protect you, but I will not indulge your reckless actions."
Shen Qiang calmly looked at the quiet staircase.
With a flick of his hand, he tossed a bottle of Jade Cream to the puppet couturier.
Thump.
The puppet couturier, catching the Jade Cream, frowned and looked puzzledly at Shen Qiang's back.
At that mont, without turning back, Shen Qiang said, equally calmly, "The Blemish Removal Water I previously gave you was diluted from Jade Cream, I had originally planned to deceive you with this for a year, but now, I've changed my mind."
Calmly turning back.
Shen Qiang looked at the puppet couturier and said, "Because I suddenly thought what you said that day made a lot of sense. In dical skill, I am invincibly strong, but in cultivation, I am pitifully weak, so I had planned to always have you be my affordable bodyguard."
"But now I've changed my mind because I saw the helpless look in the eyes of He Pangu's father."
"I killed He Pangu, and Life-extending Hall also manipulated him, but, whether facing or facing Life-extending Hall, aside from powerless screams, he could do nothing else."
"He couldn't move , nor could he move Life-extending Hall."
"Because he lacked the power!"
Looking at the puppet couturier earnestly, Shen Qiang said, "You can't protect closely for your entire life, Bai Jiao and Xu Nan, can't always appear just in ti under any circumstances either. A man's greatest backup is himself, and I, Shen Qiang, do not wish to be an eternal loser!"
"That's why I gave you the Jade Cream."
The puppet couturier laughed, "Is this repaynt? Because you were saved by twice?"
Shen Qiang's face was cold, he spoke very calmly, "Don't be so full of yourself, I, Shen Qiang, owe you no favor, for protecting is your duty."
The puppet couturier was stunned, "Then you%..."
"I gave you the Jade Cream only to rid myself of the thought of being protected by others." Shen Qiang casually raised an eyebrow and said, "Because I, Shen Qiang, am destined to grow strong enough by my own power that everyone will respect !"
Having said that, Shen Qiang turned and went upstairs.
The puppet couturier, with a mix of shock and admiration in his gaze, watched Shen Qiang's retreating figure. After hesitating a mont, he spoke, "Are you asking to leave?"
Having reached halfway up the stairs, Shen Qiang stopped and spoke firmly, "The Jade Cream is yours, you can choose to leave or stay. If you want to stay, no problem, the terms are the sa as before, no going upstairs, no going downstairs, do not interfere with my private life, other than that, feel free to think of this place as your own ho."
Having said that.
Shen Qiang walked upstairs, the puppet couturier, staring blankly at Shen Qiang's back, continued until the sound of the bedroom door closing upstairs, before he, his eyes sparkling, turned back to his room.
Looking sowhat nervously at the Jade Cream in her hand.
The sowhat excited puppet couturier, looking at a doll sitting next to her computer with a missing leg, said excitably, "Little Stupid, that bad guy is a good man! What do you think, should I teach him a lesson?"
...
Over the next few days, Shen Qiang was absorbed in his cultivation, since next week, he was due to go to dical University to advance his studies.
Thus, the imdiate priority was cultivation.
After a few days of cultivation, Shen Qiang's cultivation level had solidly entered the late Foundation Establishnt stage.
Such a rate of cultivation not only surprised the puppet couturier but even Shen Qiang himself was quite pleasantly surprised.
Normally, advancing from the Foundation Establishnt stage to the Golden Core stage even in the fastest circumstances, would at least take one to three years.
Yet, Shen Qiang had solidly entered the later phase of the Foundation Establishnt in less than a month.
If all goes well, he would soon reach the Golden Core stage.
"In that case,"
compared to his peers who had been cultivating since childhood, Shen Qiang's cultivation could be considered standard.
Keep in mind, unlike those cultivators, Shen Qiang had just started practicing a few months ago—a total newcor!
Aside from that, during these past few days,
Qian Shanxue had visited once.
She asked Shen Qiang if there was still a chance to ease the tensions with the Life-extending Hall,
if they could coexist without interfering with each other.
Shen Qiang directly said that if the people from the Life-extending Hall didn't leave, he would eliminate them.
Moreover, this was Shen Qiang's personal affair, unrelated to official business.
These words were quite arrogant.
If any other cultivators had heard him, most would only mock Shen Qiang for his brashness.
But Qian Shanxue didn't.
Unlike others who were clueless about the situation, she was aware that Shen Qiang could control diseases, and recently she had personally delivered tuberculosis bacteria to him. If Shen Qiang decided to use these ans aggressively, those from the Life-extending Hall below the Nascent Soul Stage would all die.
So after receiving the answer, Qian Shanxue left imdiately.
The next day, the people from the Life-extending Hall moved out of Provincial City.
So, it seed that the people from the Life-extending Hall also must have utilized certain connections.
After their departure,
the Zhong Family dical Clinic undoubtedly beca the beneficiary.
But the real winner was Shen Qiang.
Suddenly, the na Shen Qiang beca well-known among many dicinal families in the province, becoming a subject of discussion, speculation, and awe.
However, the Life-extending Hall itself wasn't a very significant family.
Thus, as far as the Huaxia Cultivation World was concerned, aside from so who loved gossips and had connections with dicinal families, Shen Qiang's challenge and pressing the Life-extending Hall to exit Provincial City didn't attract much attention.
anwhile, on that Friday,
Shen Qiang finally received a call from Lv Shuyao, whose father, after careful consideration, decided to leave Dinghao and go to Shen Qiang's Datong River.
This result made Shen Qiang very satisfied.
After all, no matter what, Datong River wasn't sothing Shen Qiang had brought up by himself; without knowledgeable, trustworthy people to help manage it, Datong River would soon be on a downward trajectory. If the previous owner of Datong River had secretly made arrangents moving a few chefs out, then there would be no more hope for Datong River.
But with Lv Shuyao's father stationed at Datong River, these concerns were eliminated.
First of all, Lv Shuyao's father was the head chef at Dinghao, possessing superb culinary skills. He was very familiar with the restaurant operations. Additionally, his salary, which Shen Qiang offered, was ten percent of the Datong River's net profit.
If Datong River didn't make money, he probably wouldn't stand it.
Aside from that, ti swiftly slipped away amidst Shen Qiang's calm cultivation.
And before long, it was Monday again.
That day, which was September 1st of the solar calendar,
was the opening day for dical University and also the day Shen Qiang was to enter the school for further studies.
At the entrance of dical University,
a stunningly beautiful girl with a tall and athletic figure and a youthful charm stood beside the school gate, like a breathtaking landscape, holding her luggage.
Seeing how boys excitedly hurried over, the girl with a high ponytail and a floral tee's eyes imdiately brightened. She quickly placed her luggage beside the stunning girl's feet, excitedly saying, "I told you the luggage would be yours, you can be the parkour top beauty, those idiots will be eager to help!"
