Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1943 - 1946: Boiling the Traitor’s Plot in Warm Water

After throwing out a harsh statement, Chu Xiaotian swept away with his sleeve, and as he left, the gym erupted in laughter."The power of our Alliance Hierarch is incomparable to the likes of Chu Xiaotian."

"Humph, wanting to defeat our Alliance Hierarch Shen Medicine King, without even weighing his own ability."

"Truly overestimating himself, still wet behind the ears and already wanting to challenge Shen Medicine King. Humph, doesn't even know the immensity of the heavens and earth."

The many alchemists of the Heshenghe Pill Alliance wore expressions of arrogance and pride in their eyes.

This attitude made the alchemists of the Thirty-two Skillful Hands angry.

"Humph, so arrogant, each one of them, used to look up to us Thirty-two Skillful Hands, but now with Shen Qiang, they're all soaring to heaven. And now they dare to talk about our disciples from Thirty-two Skillful Hands?"

"All just a bunch of foxes exploiting the tiger's might, without Shen Qiang, they're nothing."

"Humph, this is unbelievable, they've joined Shen Qiang and suddenly think they're invincible?"

Looking at the increasingly upset alchemists of the Thirty-two Skillful Hands.

The alchemists of the Heshenghe Pill Alliance all coldly laughed in unison.

"And so what, if you have the ability, then make a Medicine King out of your Thirty-two Skillful Hands!"

In an instant, the alchemists in the gym scattered unhappily.

Meanwhile, those cultivators who weren't afraid of watching the drama unfold became animated,

"Hahaha, this is killing me with laughter, when has any alchemist from the Thirty-two Skillful Hands ever not looked self-important in the Cultivation World, now look, Shen Qiang has become the Medicine King, their arrogance is not as easy to maintain."

"Exactly, exactly. If the Thirty-two Skillful Hands have the ability, then make a Medicine King, otherwise no matter how arrogant they are, it doesn't matter. Frankly, I used to buy pills from the Thirty-two Skillful Hands, but I think the Heshenghe Pill Alliance is a good option too now."

"Yeah, under the Medicine King's banner, how could their pills be bad?"

"Hmm, guys like Chu Xiaotian still thinking they can challenge Shen Qiang, I just laugh in his face."

At this moment, although everyone in the gym had absolute confidence in Shen Qiang, the discussion in the online streaming chat room seemed a bit somber after the laughter had passed.

"Chu Xiaotian's strength is clearly far below Shen Qiang's, but the crucial issue is that in tomorrow's Dan Fighting, Chu Xiaotian will definitely bring out the rarest pill recipe to trouble Shen Qiang."

"Indeed, there are countless types of elixir pills in this world, and no one is omnipotent. I've heard even the Medicine King Valley, known as the alchemist's Holy Land, only masters around three thousand types of recipes, which is already the most powerful!"

"That's why I feel Shen Qiang's gamble is too big, he's overconfident, clearly stating he can handle any elixir pill, otherwise he'll surely lose."

"I feel this may be precarious, tomorrow not only Chu Xiaotian but others will challenge Shen Qiang, after all, no matter how strong Shen Qiang is, he can't know every pill recipe."

"That's reasonable, I also think Shen Qiang is unwise, such a big bet, who wouldn't want to try? If they win, they'll be rewarded; if they lose, at most they'll work for him, so there'll be no shortage of people looking to challenge Shen Qiang tomorrow."

"Hmm, if someone brings out a particularly rare elixir pill, Shen Qiang might fail, haha, in that case, I'd be happy!"

The cultivators and alchemists engaged in heated discussions.

But oddly, the subject of discussion was neither the stunning fairy Qin Yurou, nor the previous champion turned this tournament's runner-up Kang He, nor the third-place genius, Shen Qiang's fan Chen Hao, but still Shen Qiang.

Indeed, compared to the competition.

After three hundred years, the Cultivation World once again welcomes a Medicine King, which is truly astonishing.

Online, there was much talk of the Thirty-two Skillful Hands and Heshenghe Pill Alliance, including gossip about Shen Qiang and Qin Yurou.

Meanwhile offline, in the core internal Elder Councils of various sects, discussions were lively.

"Humph! The Qingyun Sword Pavilion is really adept at catching opportunities, seeking out strong backers, every Medicine King throughout history has been a world-renowned hero! Not to mention, Gathering Qi Powder can help disciples cultivate quickly, Dahe Luojianan Fragrance can assist disciples in breakthroughs, and once one's cultivation reaches the Yang God Realm, given Qin Yurou and Shen Qiang's closeness, just one Shattering Star Pill will immediately elevate them to being strong in the Mixed Element Realm."

"Exactly, this Qingyun Sword Pavilion is skillful! This connection is solid; not only that, the key is Kang Luoying! She's an outstanding and talented young beauty, not only strong in cultivation, she wields the Immortal Artifact, Qingyun Sword, making their Qingyun Sword Pavilion formidable!"

"Hmm, as long as Shen Qiang takes care of them, within ten years, Qingyun Sword Pavilion will be even stronger than ever before!"

In another sect's Elder Council.

"I think this Qingyun Sword Pavilion has no good intentions, they want to use Shen Qiang's pills and money to strengthen themselves, and once they're stronger, they'll surely turn against Heshenghe."

"Different clans have different hearts, Qingyun Sword Pavilion is a traditional cultivator sect, having advocated for demon suppression and justice for over a thousand years, there's no reason they'd suddenly stand shoulder to shoulder with demons. That's not easy to justify even on the surface."

"Hmm, Shen Qiang is young, these Qingyun Sword Pavilion people likely are playing the long game of enduring hardships before they strike, wouldn't be surprising if soon they take advantage and kick Shen Qiang aside."

In the villa district of Medicine King Valley.

Having returned home from the judges' meeting, the senior member Cheng Xinyi was having a video meeting with his daughter Bai Jiao, a member of the Elder Council.

"Dad, I just don't understand why Shen Qiang trusts Bianyi so much, this jerk didn't even consult us and wants to take over Qingyun Sword Pavilion's assets and debts, it's infuriating, those debts as soon as they're taken on, result in a loss of over 1.9 billion, it's a big hole, why should we Heshenghe bear it? Clearly, they have ulterior motives!"

Upon hearing Bai Jiao's words, Bai Shiyi sitting calmly on the sofa burst into laughter, then after some thoughtful silence, Bai Shiyi said with a smile: "Silly girl, Shen Qiang's trust in Bianyi isn't unjustified, believe me, no matter what Bianyi does, don't try to interfere, what he's doing ensures Shen Qiang and your peace of mind."

Bai Jiao was stunned: "What do you mean? We pay to cover their debt of over 1.9 billion, and they'll be moved to eternal loyalty?"

Bai Shiyi laughed: "Ambition tends to grow with higher status, that's human nature. No one remains eternally loyal, but interests can bind everything, having handed over their assets and debts, Qingyun Sword Pavilion is finished!"

"In the short term, it may seem that Heshenghe has lost a considerable amount of money, and Qingyun Sword Pavilion's people might even laugh at Shen Qiang's folly, but when those assets, which are their economic lifeline, are in Shen Qiang's hands, it means if they betray, they'll face poverty, unable to even eat, so this is a strategy of boiling the frog slowly. Once they realize they can't survive without Heshenghe's support, it'll be too late to escape."
