Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 2049 - 2052: In My Courtyard, You Must Follow My Rules

Upon hearing Shanxiao say that it's easier for Gong Ziyi to kill Shen Qiang than to crush a bug, a Great Demon behind Geng Jingyi couldn't hold back, and angrily said, "Shanxiao, stop boasting there. If Gong Ziyi truly had that ability, would you need to repeatedly seek out our Big Brother Jingyi?""It's really laughable. As soon as you open your mouth, it's all about how amazing your Gong is, just like ordinary people bragging at the table about their relatives, classmates, and buddies. If you really have that skill, just let your Gong make a move. Kill Shen Qiang, then you can claim the throne without worrying; my Big Brother Jingyi won't compete with you for it."

The words from the two Great Demons made Shanxiao's face inexplicably uncomfortable.

But it made the other Great Demons who came with Geng Jingyi smile contemptuously.

After all, anyone with a bit of thought would easily discern that Shanxiao was pretending, and boasting illogically, like a balloon filled with air, ready to burst at a poke.

Seeing Shanxiao's face awkward, seemingly about to fly into a rage from humiliation.

With a heavy expression, Geng Jingyi spoke, "Shanxiao, I know why you came to me, and I know your purpose of wanting to ally with me is to oppose Shen Qiang. I've seen too many such things over the millennia. Ordinary people form alliances, cultivators form alliances, demons form alliances, but so-called communities of interest often crumble for petty gains."

Upon hearing this, Shanxiao laughed, "Geng Jingyi, what are you worried about?"

"Grinding the donkey after millstone, dismantling the bridge after crossing the river - such things happen every day. So Shanxiao, there's no need to act as if you have backing or are strong. Just be straightforward and share your plan; I'll determine if it's feasible."

Geng Jingyi raised an eyebrow and said, "If there's no conflict of interest and it's feasible, I can temporarily cooperate with you. But if you want me and my brothers to ally with someone like you who's only looking out for themselves, and to serve Gong Ziyi, that is dreaming."

"Are you saying you won't ally no matter what?" Shanxiao's eyes were fierce.

"There can be temporary cooperation," Geng Jingyi raised an eyebrow.

Upon hearing this, a Great Demon behind Shanxiao said, "Geng Jingyi, don't be disrespectful, Gong Ziyi has spoken; what qualification do you have to refuse?"

"What did you say?" The Great Demon behind Geng Jingyi glared.

Just as tensions were high between the two sides, Shanxiao suddenly smiled, "Alright, Geng Jingyi, if you truly do not want to ally and board Gong Ziyi's ship, I won't make things difficult for you. Because having you as a competitor might make Gong Ziyi value you more, so not allying is fine, but when dealing with Heshenghe, it's my call."

"Whether your idea is worthwhile remains to be seen," Geng Jingyi coldly said.

Upon hearing this, Shanxiao laughed, "Do you know why I was so eager for you to respond today? The reason is simple; three days later, the Medicine King Valley Master, Pan Zheng, the Four Little Pill Masters, and many Alchemists will come to Heshenghe."

"On the surface, these are private matters and seem unrelated to the cultivation world, but in reality, all cultivators will pay attention."

"Because the Heshenghe Pill Alliance, Medicine King Valley, and Thirty-two Skillful Hands almost represent eighty percent of the cultivation world's Alchemists. So by then, if we unite against Heshenghe, the entire cultivation world will immediately know that the King of Demons, Shen Qiang, is not as he seems."

Upon hearing this, Geng Jingyi said, "And then what?"

"Push the wall down when everyone's pushing," Shanxiao coldly said, "Many people dislike Shen Qiang, and there will certainly be many who will seize the opportunity to act. By then, we can publicly state to choose a new Demon King and pressure cultivators to recognize it."

Geng Jingyi frowned and said, "And then what?"

Shanxiao smiled and said, "Heshenghe Mountain Villa is a good place, surrounded by mountains and water, four distinct seasons – it's a feng shui treasure. With a new Demon King, naturally, Shen Qiang has to leave."

Geng Jingyi frowned.

At this moment, there was suddenly applause and hearty laughter at the door, "Such childish fairy tales, and wild dreams! That guy, you're called Shanxiao, right? With such rotten garlic, you want to arm wrestle with me? Having delusions, are you?"

Upon hearing this, all the Great Demons in the room turned to see Shen Qiang, with a faint smile, having already walked in with Ye Guyun and Ke Bizhu.

"Shen Qiang!"

All the demons were surprised and looked at each other.

Meanwhile, several Great Demons behind Shanxiao's eyes lit up, as they all stepped forward.

"Shen Qiang, how dare you boldly walk into the trap!"

While they clamored, Shen Qiang chuckled indifferently, not minding their shouting at all, walking straight towards the demons.

"Halt!" Shanxiao roared.

Shen Qiang sneered, not only did an awe-inspiring aura unfurl silkily around him, his eyes gleaming faintly gold, which with just a cold gaze at Shanxiao, made him immediately freeze on the spot.

Bang!

With a light sound, not only did Shen Qiang directly shove Shanxiao aside, but he also walked indifferently to the main seat in the hall, sat down casually, crossed his legs, and calmly looked at the startled, nervous, trusty yet hesitant Great Demons, smiling slightly, "Go on, talk about your whimsical plan. I'm here to listen like a comedy show."

Upon hearing this, Shanxiao's face turned dark and he sneered, "Shen Qiang, you're courting death."

Shen Qiang laughed and said, "This Tri River Restaurant is nice; it's the first time I've realized there's such a pleasant little place in my backyard."

Immediately, the Great Demons' eyes turned tense.

After all, they knew this place was only two kilometers from Heshenghe, and if Heshenghe's demons charged, they'd arrive instantly.

"Shen Qiang, don't assume that because cultivators call you the King of Demons, you're truly the King of Demons."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang glanced at Shanxiao, smirked, "A thousand and three-year-old monkey spirit with intelligence less than a five-year-old child's. Tsk tsk, Ye Guyun, teach him some etiquette."

At the moment Shen Qiang said this.

With an amazing tiger's roar, Ye Guyun, who had already revealed her True Body, instantly stepped on Shanxiao, and the terrifying aura full of killing intent made the demons present turn pale.

"Great Demon Qiongqi!"

"The leader of the Ancient Four Great Beasts!"

"So terrifying! Turns out the rumors are true!"

The Great Demons brought by Shanxiao turned pale.

"Shen Qiang, dare touch me, Gong Ziyi will slaughter you!" Shanxiao was horrified.

Shen Qiang laughed and said, "Having no strength isn't scary; what's terrifying is having no strength and being stupid. Don't you understand yet? If Gong Ziyi dared to kill me, why bother using someone like you, a worthless fool? Slap him until he learns the rules."
