Chapter 2037 - 2040: Error Analysis of the Three Beauties

Upon hearing the words of the Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing, Shen Qiang said with an exceptionally calm expression: "A great person once said, there is no love without reason, nor hatred without reason. Those three cultivators must have an agenda in doing this, unless they are mad.""Three hundred thousand, to ordinary people, may not seem like a small sum, but what can this money buy in the cultivation world? Just a bit of Gathering Qi Powder, not to mention a magical treasure, even if seeking a Jade Talisman, the money might not be sufficient."

"Exactly, that's the point I'm making. Under your circumstances, being at the peak, those three dared to risk their lives deceiving that woman to stir trouble for just three hundred thousand. There's surely an issue here," said the Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing with a serious look.

Shen Qiang turned his head and looked at Ye Guyun, reaching out his hand: "Hand it over."

Ye Guyun was taken aback, asking: "Why?"

"The personal belongings of those three cultivators," Shen Qiang replied.

Ye Guyun was displeased, rolling her eyes: "Hmph, still acting like a big boss, but so stingy. Want this, want that, fine, fine, all yours."

Grumbling, Ye Guyun reluctantly handed the three Qiankun Bags to Shen Qiang.

Seeing her puffed-up cheeks, Shen Qiang sighed inwardly, noticing her growth. Previously ignorant of wealth, now she understands and secretly saves private funds. Is her wisdom advancing?

Though he felt like laughing, Shen Qiang could not smile at this moment.

He opened the three Qiankun Bags and poured out their contents, and was immediately taken aback by the rubbish that was spilled out.

ID cards, wallets, household registration books, some receipts, three hundred thousand in cash, and several paper talismans.

Besides these, the three basic rotten flying swords, in Shen Qiang's view, were almost indistinguishable from scrap metal.

After verifying those bank cards and receipts, they were all worthless; the total assets of the three cultivators didn't even make up a million.

After tossing this pile of junk to Ye Guyun,

Shen Qiang's brow furrowed tightly.

The Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu hesitantly said, "There aren't any particularly massive valuables on them. If there really was someone directing them from behind, this is very puzzling."

Hearing this, Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing furrowed her brows slightly and said, "Yes, because before they came here, they should've known that if they failed to frame and defame, they wouldn't be leaving alive. So, if someone was directing them, whatever promises made, they should have received first before coming here. After all, if they died, it would all end, and they would have no means to ensure promises were kept."

"Perhaps, the promised items have already been given, but they aren't carrying them," speculated Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu and Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing.

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang chuckled and said, "You're placing their worth too high."

The two paused in surprise, looking at Shen Qiang.

At this moment, Shen Qiang placed the three Qiankun Bags on the coffee table and smiled at them: "Look at these three Qiankun Bags, obviously new and in great condition. According to market prices, each should be worth between five to six hundred thousand."

"And look at the junk inside their Qiankun Bags, all together not worth a million. Do you think they sold everything they had just to exchange for Qiankun Bags, or was someone gifting them a Qiankun Bag each?"

Hearing this, the eyes of Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing and Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu instantly lit up. The two exchanged a glance, then focused on the Qiankun Bags.

A moment later, Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing laughed softly, looking coquettishly at Shen Qiang and said, "You have so many sly ideas, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have overlooked the Qiankun Bag issue. These three Qiankun Bags, top quality and almost identical in quality, all brand new, obviously crafted by the same Artifact Refiner."

"From my perspective, two possibilities arise when three not-so-wealthy cultivators simultaneously purchase premium Qiankun Bags: One, they've recently come into unexpected wealth. Two, these Qiankun Bags were directly gifted."

Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu also laughed, gazing at Shen Qiang with charming delight: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I'd have forgotten. Back in the day, it took me nearly a hundred years to obtain a Qiankun Bag, and then hundreds more to upgrade to a Storage Ring, so I'm now convinced these Qiankun Bags were given by the directing party."

"Is it worth much?" Ye Guyun's eyes darted about.

Shen Qiang smiled, "It's decent, but it's contraband, so it's mine."

Ye Guyun rolled her eyes instantly, "Cheapskate."

Shen Qiang chuckled lightly, three Qiankun Bags easily adding up to 1.5 million, far better staying with Shen Qiang than with Ye Guyun who didn't understand the market, risking random selling or giving away.

"If that's the case, the whole issue becomes clear—someone paid them to frame, intending to damage the reputation of Shen Qiang and Heshenghe. Hence, we need to analyze who would benefit from this damage to Shen Qiang and Heshenghe's reputation, and then we'd identify the mastermind," said Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing excitedly.

The eyes of Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu sparkled at this, "Chu Qing, you're right! Really, using three Qiankun Bags to employ thugs surely has an agenda. With this thinking, the mastermind could be Medicine King Valley or the Thirty-two Skillful Hands, because Shen Qiang is Medicine King and would steal their thunder."

"Indeed, that's it!" said Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing excitedly.

"Counterattack, Shen Qiang, let's also hit back at them!" Ye Guyun suddenly exclaimed joyfully.

Watching the three excited women, Shen Qiang smiled helplessly and said, "You all better not get involved in this, just go do what you need to."

The three, Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing, Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu, Ye Guyun, stared at Shen Qiang, puzzled, and Ye Guyun, ever blunt, directly asked, "Shen Qiang, what do you mean? We're helping you with good intentions, do you mean you don't need our help?"

Shen Qiang laughed with exasperation, "That's not it. It's just that you three are really not fit to be involved in such intrigues, because your analyses are wrong. Neither the Thirty-two Skillful Hands nor Medicine King Valley, nor all the alchemists, would use such means against me."

"Moreover, I can clearly tell you, the ones directing those three cultivators to frame me are well aware; regardless of the truth of this situation, as long as my medical skill remains and my alchemy prowess persists, this trivial affair won't harm me one bit. Furthermore, such crude methods are sure to be uncovered."

"But despite this, they still opted for this approach, merely to arrogantly inform me of their arrival, asking me to prepare for their forthcoming strategies."
