Chapter 1598 - 1601: The Alluring Qi Meng Wants to Watch the Show
"Young Miss, the thing you're most worried about has happened, Nightmare has accepted Xiang Qianmeng's task!" A middle-aged woman with glasses hurriedly burst into the gym. The alluring woman wearing tight pants and a sports vest paused upon hearing the news, then continued her weighted squats, speaking softly in a delicate tone."Are the people from the Illusion Demolition Group trying to send Shen Qiang to his death? Not only has Xiang Qianmeng's cultivation reached the Dao Fruit Stage, but more impressively, his Dao Fruit is a barrier, a Dao Fruit that can truly be used for combat."
The middle-aged woman hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Impossible, Shen Qiang is so powerful. If he were in our Mirage Qimeng, he would certainly become a core, someone we'd protect, not send to die."
Upon hearing this, the woman doing weighted squats to tone her glutes seemed to pause, then she stood up and returned the barbell covered with magic formations to the stand.
Then she said in a deep voice, "For the sake of profit, there's nothing impossible, and Shen Qiang is too domineering, bursting with hormones and really clever. If I were the leader of the Illusion Demolition Group, I'd either borrow a knife to kill him or teach him a harsh lesson to make him obedient."
The middle-aged woman hesitated at these words, then said, "Young Miss, based on previous records, new recruits of the Illusion Demolition Group usually take on lower difficulty tasks to test the waters, but Shen Qiang chose Xiang Qianmeng immediately, so I think what you said makes sense."
"Whether it's a hired hit or trying to give Shen Qiang a warning, this task is too premature for him. Because in the Cultivation World, those who are beyond the Dao Fruit Stage are super strong, and depending on each person's Dao Fruit, their combat power can be worlds apart."
"Ordinary Dao Fruit Stage cultivators might have formed Dao Fruits that are not necessarily useful in battle, so someone like Ling Zhengyang, standing at the peak of the Mixed Element Realm, can defeat them, but Xiang Qianmeng's barrier possesses top-notch defense capabilities. Shen Qiang is only in the Yang God Realm, making it impossible to break the barrier."
After a charming smile, Qi Meng under the tight clothes enveloping her alluring figure murmured to herself, "And if the barrier remains unbroken, no matter what Shen Qiang does, he won't be able to kill Xiang Qianmeng. Therefore, someone must assist him on this task, meaning others from the Illusion have to be present."
"Interesting. Let's see what Shen Qiang can do besides poisoning and alchemy." She laughed charmingly, saying, "Notify them, we're going to watch the show."
"Yes, Young Miss," the middle-aged woman replied.
And the charming Qi Meng, with graceful steps, headed towards the bathroom, her alluring figure taking surprisingly joyful steps.
6:30 PM, Beijing Airport.
Shen Qiang calmly boarded the plane with the four-maskless members of the Illusion Demolition Group.
In the cabin.
Sitting closely beside him was the handsome leader of the Illusion Demolition Group.
"I thought you would at least bring Ye Guyun."
Upon hearing him, Shen Qiang chuckled, "No need, if you intended to give me a warning, you should have considered that I would bring Ye Guyun and use a powerful sword array. If the opponent could be wiped out by a mere wave, this task would be too simple and would only elevate my position in the group."
"I've self-appointed myself as vice-leader, you must be very upset?" Shen Qiang smiled at the group leader beside him. "So although I haven't received Xiang Qianmeng's detailed data yet, I'm quite certain this is a problem that can't be solved by just a sword array. Otherwise, you wouldn't have specifically appointed me for this task."
"You think I'm presenting a challenge to you?" The group leader laughed, "How could that be? It's merely that we coincidentally have evidence of his crimes and need to take care of him. Don't overthink it."
Shen Qiang laughed, "Well, if a sword array package can solve the problem, I'll believe you."
The group leader laughed, "Let's talk about the tall swordsman and the Gu Hunter; when do you plan to give them back to me?"
Shen Qiang laughed, raised an eyebrow, and said, "When you truly start trusting them."
The group leader fell silent for a long time until the plane took off and stabilized, finally saying, "Shen Qiang, you know what I dislike most about you?"
Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow, "Arrogant, conceited, despicable, shameless, vulgar, coarse, probably those. Anyway, it's always those flattering words."
The group leader laughed, "I've seen my old self in you, confident enough to think I'm strong!" His eyes turned cold and he said, "But this world is vast, full of capable people who are very skilled at disguising themselves."
"No one is invincible, neither am I nor you, so I advise you to be discreet; because your arrogance will not only put you in danger, but also risk the group."
Shen Qiang laughed, "My ostentatiousness before you is simply due to self-appointing as vice-leader and pulling the tall swordsman and the Gu Hunter to my side. You're saying that if I'm not ostentatious and just like a puppet obeying you, I won't be in danger or face crisis?"
The group leader laughed, "You think you're smarter than me."
Shen Qiang laughed, "Not at all, I just don't want to blindly entrust my fate to a stranger. My fate is dictated by me, not by heaven. Understand? Those who act according to what others say, regardless of right or wrong, are merely thrash-hands, even if they have the strongest power."
The group leader raised an eyebrow, "Is there a difference? The task I designed for you, you took a long detour but still accepted it. You still acted according to my wishes."
Shen Qiang laughed, "Must I say it again? This task is something I want to do, so I accepted it. It's not because you told me to accept it; if you can't comprehend that, take your time to think."
"Can you complete it independently?" The group leader laughed.
Shen Qiang laughed even more, his eyes squinting, "Perhaps not."
"Then you can come to me for help," the group leader suggested.
Shen Qiang laughed, looking sideways at the group leader beside him and said, "You're hinting at me, aren't you? You know my sword array is powerful, so you arranged a problem my sword array can't solve, then wait for me to bow my head to you, and then you help me solve it to establish your authority?"
"Don't be too swollen, kid. Don't take yourself as the center of the world. The Illusion Demolition Group has many tasks and cannot revolve entirely around you, so it's best you restrain yourself a bit." The group leader smiled, put on an eye mask to nap, and said, "If you can't do it, remember to come to me."
Shen Qiang frowned and gazed out of the airplane window at the pitch-black night sky, feeling inexplicably desolate.
