Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1454 - 1457: Negotiations Break Down, Hostile as Water and Fire! (5th Update)

Upon hearing Shen Qiang's words, Wenren Meiqiao was momentarily stunned, then furiously said, "What did you say? Dare you say it again!""I said, either you directly set a price, and we'll sit down and have a good talk about the issue of that immortal female corpse that's several thousand years old. Otherwise, stop bothering me, understand? If we aren't discussing that, even if you stripped naked and chased me for two kilometers, if I turn my head even once, consider me a thug!"

Looking at the furious Wenren Meiqiao, Shen Qiang's heart was also ablaze because Wenren Meiqiao truly went too far. Initially, she was adamant the girl was disguised as having committed suicide connected to Shen Qiang. After Shen Qiang cleared himself of suspicion, logically, it should have ended there.

After all, Shen Qiang specifically asked Zuo Lianghao and Bianyi and secretly asked the Eagle Demon, only to confirm that neither of them had been to Beijing recently.

This means the case of the girl being harmed has nothing to do with either of them.

Moreover, Shen Qiang clearly pointed out a path for her.

Why did the person want to murder the girl and then disguise it as a suicide?

Obviously, the intention was to shake off suspicion.

This means the girl's death was done by someone closely related to her.

But Wenren Meiqiao?

She went to investigate Bianyi.

Pretty impressive, she found out Shen Bian is Bianyi. But the issue is, Bianyi isn't a wanted criminal anymore!

Back then, the cosmetic surgery and identity change were only because Shen Qiang spread the word in the Cultivation World that he wanted to kill him; Bianyi had to act like he couldn't survive.

But that was then, and this is now.

At that time, Shen Qiang urgently needed to establish his might.

Does he still need to play such tricks now?

Besides, what can she do even if she found that out?

At most, Bianyi extorted another cultivator.

Who cares about things like that in the Cultivation World, which celebrates survival of the fittest?

Oh, so then she confidently thinks she got some dirt on Shen Qiang and instead of solving a case where she could find the murderer with a thought, she excitedly comes here to demand Shen Qiang confess?

Confess to what?

And confessing from leniency?

This is practically labeling Shen Qiang as a criminal directly.

The underlying meaning in her words is that you're definitely guilty, now quickly confess.

Isn't this driving people to death?

Not even a bit of leeway left for Shen Qiang!

Under such circumstances, how can Shen Qiang continue indulging her? Well, if he does, she's sure to reach the sky, unable to touch Shen Qiang through investigating Bianyi, she'd go for Zuo Lianghao next. If Zuo Lianghao doesn't work, it would be Bai Jiao next. If Bai Jiao doesn't work, it would be Xu Nan next, pulling every little demon out for questioning, not stopping until something is found — would this ever end?

With Heshenghe that large, daily expenses are calculated in millions — would it turn into doing nothing, just constantly being investigated by her?

Fuming more the longer he thought about it, Shen Qiang repeated those words without any courtesy.

Wenren Meiqiao was livid, nearly exploding as she moved toward Shen Qiang.

Her two female subordinates promptly pulled her back, dissuading her.

"Think it over!"

"Calm down!"

Shen Qiang, furious to the point of bursting, coldly said, "Why are you stopping her? Let her come over, I want to see what she can do!"

At these words, Wenren Meiqiao became even angrier.

One of the two female subordinates beside her quickly explained, "Shen Qiang, it's not what you think. We went back yesterday and found the real murderer in that girl's case, it was her uncle. So, we don't owe you any favor and took this document because cultivators live longer and operate in different environments. Once registered, Bianyi can officially change his name to Shen Bian and receive an actual identity."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang coldly raised an eyebrow, "You think I'd believe that?"

Wenren Meiqiao angrily said, "You think I need you to believe? Listen closely, Shen Qiang, unless you follow the rules in every matter, you can wait for me to send you to hell."

With that said.

Wenren Meiqiao turned and left in fury.

One of the female subordinates coldly glanced at Shen Qiang, following her to leave, while the other from Wenren Meiqiao handed back the stack of documents to Shen Qiang and seriously said, "This is Bianyi's new identity, Shen Bian, all identities are legal."

"Because cultivators often face pursuit from stronger beings, as long as it's necessary to change identity and approved, the Dragon Group will issue a new identity for him, and apparently, you previously only registered with the Dragon Group without providing further information."

"So Wenren helped you get these done, as for asking you to confess, it's likely just a joke."

Shen Qiang laughed, coldly raising an eyebrow, "Thanks." With that said, Shen Qiang took those documents and turned to leave.

What kind of joke?

Confession, explanation, can this be joked about?

Don't talk about Shen Qiang being petty.

This matter would upset anyone.

Moreover, to be blunt, who knows, maybe Wenren Meiqiao saw Shen Qiang was angry, so she staged this drama.

Shen Qiang wouldn't believe that even if he admitted to guilt, Wenren Meiqiao would let it go?

Pretend not to know?

Ridiculous!

If he truly admitted it, the punishment would await Shen Qiang!

Unless you're an imbecile, who would joke about such things?

Does Shen Qiang seem foolish?

Holding Bianyi's new identity, Shen Qiang walked towards the restaurant while calling Bianyi.

After briefly explaining the legitimacy of his identity, Shen Qiang advised him to contact people from Carefree Valley and Netherworld Pavilion to inquire about anyone who knows the location of the thousand-year-old immortal corpse.

Once the conversation with Bianyi was over.

Shen Qiang called Bai Jiao and Xu Nan, similarly asking them to use their family connections to inquire about the thousand-year-old immortal corpse issue.

Then, Shen Qiang called Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing.

Having her directly ask Heshenghe's demons if anyone knows anything about the thousand-year-old immortal corpse.

Given the current situation, regardless of what Wenren Meiqiao truly thinks, Shen Qiang doesn't want to seek her help at all.

After all, there are no walls without leaks in this world. If one person knows, there will surely be a second who knows; the so-called secret is merely not finding the person in the know.

If Wenren Meiqiao is that impressive, how can Shen Qiang never ask her for help?

As long as Athena's Divine Corpse is still on this Earth, as Shen Qiang's cultivation grows and Heshenghe strengthens, with earnest searching, Shen Qiang doesn't believe he won't find it.

Moreover, there's an old saying, if you gaze up at people with a forty-five-degree angle, don't blame them for looking down at you with a one hundred thirty-five-degree angle!

Challenge the fight, push back in defiance!

In this current situation, even if Shen Qiang pleaded with Wenren Meiqiao, it wouldn't work.

While thinking of this, Shen Qiang, somewhat lost in thoughts, reached the cafeteria, got some food, and found a reasonably clean table to sit down.

That's when Qin Yurou's voice reached his ears, "Hey, Shen Qiang, might I sit here?"

Snapping out of his thoughts, Shen Qiang turned his head, looking at the slightly nervous Qin Yurou with her beautiful eyes, and smiled, "Of course, you can."
