Chapter 2270 - 2273: The Antidote Is the Real Poison

Hearing the words of the Great Sea Demon King Yujiang, Shen Qiang's eyes immediately turned frosty. Not only that, Shen Qiang also frowned and glanced at the old butler Uncle Gui beside him. Then he smiled slightly and said, "What you see is the real situation."

Instantly, Shen Qiang laughed, not only pulling the Mermaid Princess Jinli Qianning to his side but also calmly said, "No problem."

The Great Sea Demon King Yujiang smiled, then turned around and said, "Please."

Shen Qiang walked inside with Jinli Qianning, someone beside them came up to stop Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu, the charming Ye Guyun, and the octopus monster Bao Laosan.

This was normal.

It was very common for accompanying personnel to be stopped and arranged separately, and there was nothing to make a fuss about.

But while thinking in his heart, Shen Qiang realized the danger through the words of the Great Sea Demon King Yujiang and the actions of those young sea demons.

That is, the Great Sea Demon King Yujiang does not have the supreme authority in the deep sea as Shen Qiang had expected.

The reasoning is simple.

If truly it were the case that whatever he said, all sea demons would listen, then in the Huaxia Sea Border, there would be no chance for that so-called son of the Sea Emperor Butes to show off.

If Yujiang truly had unparalleled might, when Shen Qiang and Qianning returned, those young sea demons might feel displeased, but mostly, they would have no choice but to swallow their anger and might not have the courage to confront Shen Qiang head-on.

Moreover.

More importantly, if the Great Sea Demon King Yujiang truly had overwhelming prestige, then it wouldn't have been just him and Uncle Gui welcoming Shen Qiang at the gate, there should have been other incredibly powerful sea demons.

But there weren't.

They were inside.

The Great Sea Demon King Yujiang also reminded Shen Qiang to be careful of them, meaning that if Shen Qiang could not gain their approval, then the matter of seizing the Divine Corpse might have to be called off.

Then this matter becomes simple.

The sea demons inside obviously came here because they had to give Yujiang face, but they were not obedient to his words.

Not only that.

If Shen Qiang could not defeat those young ones outside, he might not even be able to meet them.

From this point of view.

It was very obvious that those sea demons did not have any respect for Shen Qiang as the King of Demons and there was an implicit sense of disdain.

From their mentality, perhaps they had many channels to obtain medicine and money, and without ambition to set foot on land, they probably thought, anyway, I don't need you, you can't bring me any special benefits, why should I bother with you?

"Interesting, the situation seems a bit complicated," a smile appeared on Shen Qiang's lips as he calmly walked inside with the Great Sea Demon King and Uncle Gui.

At this moment, outside the Cave Mansion, those sea demons were already in an uproar.

"Terrifying, is this the true strength of the King of Demons Shen Qiang?" many sea demons were taken aback, looking at the five young Great Demons covered in wounds and bleeding.

A sea demon who seemed quite high in status snorted coldly and then sighed, "Ah, too young, they didn't even think through, who is the Great King Yujiang? Can an average cultivator catch his eye? Besides, with Princess Qianning's high standards, so many excellent sea demons didn't catch her eye, but that Shen Qiang did, how could there be no reason?"

Many sea demons nodded in agreement.

"This Shen Qiang isn't something good; his methods are too ruthless, going for the gut, playing dirty boxing, and using sword arrays. Tsk tsk, if he can't win head-on, he resorts to underhanded tactics, such a person should be kept at a distance. If you truly provoke him, you won't even know how you died."

"Exactly, this Shen Qiang is too scary, no wonder he's the King of Demons. Mad, with such dirty tricks, who's not afraid?"

"Haha, Shen Qiang claims to subdue people with virtue, but the unsaid part is, those who don't submit are dead! Ah, what a pity, that Kou Zhi was the number one warrior among our youth sea demons, yet, he didn't even last a single move before being injured by Shen Qiang's dirty fist. From what they said, there is no hope to recover without three to five years of recuperation."

Many sea demons whispered among themselves.

Meanwhile, a little sea demon with a very nervous expression came over, lowered his voice, and said, "Shh, shh! Keep your voices down. I'm telling you, you all don't realize your blessings, this Shen Qiang is ruthless. Just last night's event, a hundred and twenty highly skilled cultivators, for some reason, got into a fight with Shen Qiang's men."

"Guess what happened?" the nervous little sea demon teased.

A nearby great sea demon frowned, "Stop beating around the bush, just say it."

Hearing this, the little sea demon smiled, "The result was that Shen Qiang was too ruthless, tsk tsk..."

The little sea demon dragged out his words, gazing at the other demons with a "I'll not tell you, it's going to kill you" expression.

Slap!

A great sea demon raised his hand and slapped him, "Speak quickly, or I'll kill you."

Upon hearing this, the little sea demon immediately fell silent, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Killed them all, not one left alive, so everyone should be extra careful, this Shen Qiang is not one of those cultivators who flies on a flying sword, pretentious, shouting about eliminating demons and defending justice; you cry out in pain, show some softness, and they will let you go. Falling into his hands is a dead end!"

Instantly, the many sea demons present looked wary, feeling inexplicably tense.

Just then.

A sea demon holding a large bag came over, spoke in a deep voice, "Come, come, those who had enteritis just now, come over, these are special effect medicine given by Shen Qiang, take one and you'll be fine, one for each."

Saying this, pills were flying everywhere.

Each sea demon took one, some quick to act even rolled it into their stomachs with their tongues.

"Haha, this Shen Qiang isn't much, if he's got the guts to poison us, don't give us the antidote!"

"Exactly, clearly a coward, if he was truly capable, truly that arrogant, he would have poisoned us all to death, just knows how to brag, haha, such a tough guy, look, catching a random mantis shrimp is tougher than him."

"Haha, laughable, I actually thought this Shen Qiang was a one-in-a-million tough guy, but what is this? Poisoned us, we didn't even ask for the antidote, but he gave it to us willingly, isn't he just a big fool?"

The many sea demons laughed out loud.

"This Shen Qiang doesn't have the guts to touch us!"

After all, that's what happened, Shen Qiang turned against them and poisoned them, yet he gave the antidote before they begged, isn't that being a fool?

But right then, the sea demon who seemed virtuous and respected ate the antidote, showed a derisive smile as the others laughed but turned his head and saw that little sea demon staring at the pill in his hand in a daze.

Startled, he asked, "Why are you in a daze? Take the antidote now."

On hearing this, the little sea demon, who suddenly raised his head, said curiously, "Those who often go on land know, when Shen Qiang poisons and detoxifies, it's always imperceptible. I've never heard of him distributing pills for detoxification."

Instantly, the face of the virtuous sea demon changed dramatically, he reached into his throat, vomited profusely, and afterward, in the mess, began searching like a madman.

"What's wrong with you?" many around asked curiously.

By this time, the virtuous sea demon, after frantically searching to no avail, sat down on the ground, despairing, and said, "We've been tricked, this antidote is Shen Qiang's real poison!"
