Chapter 1994 - 1997

In that split second like lightning, not only did Shen Qiang's eyes turn icy, but Ye Guyun, who had been complaining about her phone signal, casually flipped her jade-like hand and smacked the Flying Sword away in an instant.

Bang!

The longsword that the cute, charming Ye Guyun had slapped away not only blew the car door to pieces in a heartbeat, but with the night wind rushing in, there was suddenly an extra tinge of sharp killing intent in the air.

And almost at the same time.

Not only did Ye Guyun immediately get out of the car, Ji Wei, the big burly Swordsman, and Zhan Deyuan also instantly appeared around Shen Qiang's car.

The engine was still running.

The damaged car shuddered in the dark night.

Breathing in the cold, slightly damp air, thick with killing intent, Shen Qiang, still calmly sitting in the backseat, casually brushed off the shattered glass that had sprayed onto him. Borrowing the car's headlights, his gaze clearly fell on the five people standing about twenty-plus meters in front of the car.

Shen Qiang knew the one in the lead.

An old enemy, the former Kunlun Sword Sect Sect Leader Ma.

The other four all looked like they were at the Dao Fruit Stage in terms of Cultivation.

"Don't make a move." He stopped Ye Guyun.

Sitting in the backseat, Shen Qiang activated the Plague Source. Once the Anthrax Bacteria and Botulinum Toxin spread out, he stared at the Kunlun Sword Sect Sect Leader Ma with an unusually calm expression and said, "Sect Leader Ma, what a small world. Didn't expect we'd meet again this soon."

The moment he heard this.

The former Kunlun Sword Sect Sect Leader Ma, holding his sword one-handed, pointed the sword at Shen Qiang and shouted harshly, "Shen Qiang, you should know very well, I'm stopping you here not to trade this kind of useless crap. You ruined me, so I'm here for your life!"

Shen Qiang frowned, looking displeased, and said calmly, "Sect Leader Ma, there was no grudge between us at the beginning, but you first colluded with Baihua Palace, Carefree Valley, Hidden Sword Villa, and Qingyun Sword Pavilion to jointly suppress Heshenghe. Then, because of the Dragon Group consultant matter, you started flaming me online. After that, the one who used the Kunlun Sword Technique to post a bounty for my head on the Bounty Hunters platform was also you, right?"

"Not only that, at this Medicine King Valley Pill conference, did I, Shen Qiang, provoke you even once? Oh, Sect Leader Ma, you're so amazing—bringing a whole bunch of people to block my door, not letting me do business is one thing, but what, now you even want to kill me?"

"Demonic scum, everyone has the right to kill!" Sect Leader Ma said coldly, eyes fierce and brows bristling. "I am the exalted Sect Leader of the Kunlun Sword Sect, one of the twelve at the Peak of the Cultivation World. What I say is law. Who dares refuse? Shen Qiang, what gives you the courage to stand against me?"

Shen Qiang laughed and said evenly, "You can't go through life treating yourself like you're nothing, but you also can't treat yourself like you're everything. Sect Leader Ma, you need to understand—if you kick some stray dog on the roadside for no reason, it'll bite you. Let alone when the one you're kicking is a person."

Hearing this, Sect Leader Ma shouted, "Shen Qiang, spare me the sophistry. Those who submit to me live, those who defy me die. That's the iron rule of the Cultivation World; no one can change it. Prepare to die—this day next year will be your death anniversary!"

Shen Qiang snorted with laughter. "Sect Leader Ma, I figure you must have had too much fake liquor, still not sober yet. If you want to kill me, you not only need to bring your buddies, you'd better bring your coffin too."

In an instant.

The True Yuan of the four people beside Sect Leader Ma soared to the sky.

"Do it! Hack him to pieces for me!" Sect Leader Ma gave the order.

The four Dao Fruit Stage cultivators charged over in an instant.

Boom!

True Yuan collided in a burst of Fury, Gang Wind howling, killing intent bleak and chilling.

But at this moment, Ye Guyun, Ji Wei, the big burly Swordsman, and Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu were already fighting them head-on.

In the surging Gang Wind, Zhan Deyuan, with the scar on his face, said in a steady tone, "I'm not very good at frontal clashes, so boss, please allow me to act on my own."

Shen Qiang nodded calmly. "Do as you like."

Because Shen Qiang knew that Zhan Deyuan had once been an instructor at Dragon Nest, best at traps, tracking, and assassination. His Cultivation was at Late Stage Mixed Element Realm, not yet at Dao Fruit. So if he went head-on in this kind of situation, it'd basically be a death wish.

He'd be of no use at all, so letting him fight in the way he's best at was undoubtedly the perfect solution.

"Thanks, boss."

The instant his words fell, Zhan Deyuan vanished.

After that, Shen Qiang watched the Kunlun Sword Sect Sect Leader Ma, who was walking toward him step by step with sword in hand, his mood extremely calm and his expression without the slightest ripple.

"What, you don't dare get out of the car? Aren't you, Shen Qiang, supposed to be so badass? What, no guts to fight me one-on-one? Or are you just a coward at heart?" Sect Leader Ma of the Kunlun Sword Sect said coldly, his face gloomy.

Hearing that, Shen Qiang leaned back in the seat and chuckled calmly. "Sect Leader Ma, like I said, you can't treat yourself like you're everything. I'm not getting out of the car because you, who are no longer a Sect Leader, are simply not qualified to face me."

As he spoke, Shen Qiang flicked his wrist.

Boom!

A spatial Eternal Life Cabin appeared beside the car.

As the cabin door opened.

The Undead Demon, who had been sleeping all this time, suddenly opened his blood-red eyes.

"Impudent! To dare disturb my sleep—this sin cannot be forgiven!"

Sect Leader Ma, holding his sword one-handed, showed not the slightest fear, instead letting out an arrogant cold laugh. "Just a mere demon, and you dare act wild in front of me? Go to hell!"

Puff!

A strike as fast as lightning pierced straight through the Undead Demon's chest in an instant.

"Trash. If your underlings are this useless, Shen Qiang, how strong could you possibly be?" Sect Leader Ma sneered.

But then, he was stunned to see a mocking smile curl up at the corner of Shen Qiang's mouth.

Just as his mind turned, not understanding what Shen Qiang meant—

Bang!

The Undead Demon, whose chest had been run through with that sword, not only had his eyes turn blood-red in an instant, but he suddenly slapped a palm straight onto Sect Leader Ma, blasting him flying.

Staggering back more than a dozen steps before barely steadying himself, Sect Leader Ma coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood with a splurt.

Then he stared at the Undead Demon in shock, horrified. "Impossible, I already pierced your heart with my sword."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang, sitting in the car, just smiled and shook his head, not even interested in talking. Because this was the reality. Back then, the Kunlun Sword Sect Sect Leader had been a mountain Shen Qiang couldn't shake at all. But things were different now. Shen Qiang was now the exalted Medicine King, while Sect Leader Ma had already been stripped of his Kunlun Sect Leader halo.

Not only that, he'd never been some genius in Cultivation to begin with. His real Cultivation level was only Mixed Element Realm.

Don't even mention the Undead Demon who could fight Ji Wei's True Body to a standstill. Whether it was Shen Qiang himself or even Zhan Deyuan, who was the weakest in direct confrontation, either of them could kill him. After all, he wasn't some freak like Shen Qiang, who had obtained the Medical Saint Inheritance and used Fetal Dragon Essence Foundation Establishment.

"Shen Qiang! You demonic scourge, if you've got any balls, get out of the car and have a fair fight with me! Spineless rat! If not for relying on these demons around you, you wouldn't even have the strength to withstand a single sword from me!"
