Chapter 1796 - 1799: Who Says I Don't Dare Show Up After Boasting?
Looking at the smiling Great Sea Demon, Nalan Tianyu, a tall and poised mixed-race beauty in a pristine military uniform, said somewhat helplessly, "We are waiting for someone, and I won't accept your gift." The Great Sea Demon smiled, pulled out a chair, and sat down unceremoniously, saying, "Alright, if the person you're waiting for arrives, I'll make way, is that okay?""You, why are you so thick-skinned?" The twin-tailed girl Liu Mei frowned and said, "Our supervisor doesn't vibe with you; she has a love interest, so you better hurry up and leave, don't waste time here."
The Great Sea Demon laughed at the words and looked at Nalan Tianyu, saying, "I can feel that you don't hate me."
Nalan Tianyu smiled, saying, "Yes, I don't hate you, but it doesn't mean I'll tolerate your endless coiling."
The Great Sea Demon laughed, glanced sideways at the twin-tailed girl beside him, then looked serious and said, "I know who you're waiting for. Believe me, I'm actually better than the person you're waiting for and more suitable for you. Of course, if your reason for choosing him is that he has more hair than me, then I have nothing to say."
Nalan Tianyu giggled, "Sorry, I don't understand your humor, but I'm really not in the mood to listen to you now."
"Because he's dating a movie star." The bald Great Sea Demon smiled, "Do you know? Actually, he doesn't care about you at all, because if he did, he wouldn't let you wait here for so long while he's having fun elsewhere."
"Talking behind someone's back is despicable!" The twin-tailed girl said unhappily.
The bald Great Sea Demon chuckled and said, "It's not just despicable people who talk behind backs, there might be friends too."
After saying that, the bald Great Sea Demon looked at Nalan Tianyu, saying, "You're truly beautiful, like the brightest star in the night sky. In this world, only a king like me is worthy of you."
"That's a bad joke." Nalan Tianyu said, "I've told you, I have a love interest. If you continue the awkward conversation, I think we won't even be friends."
The bald Great Sea Demon laughed, staring closely at Nalan Tianyu, saying, "Admit it, you have feelings for me. Otherwise, you wouldn't tolerate me talking like this around you again and again. Besides, I never just befriend women; either you're mine or someone else's."
Looking at the eyes filled with aggressiveness, despite being bald, but exuding a unique mature man charm, Nalan Tianyu's heart was inexplicably a bit disturbed.
"You should leave." Nalan Tianyu said.
The Great Sea Demon chuckled and said, "Why so quick to reject me? Are you scared because you realize I'm actually a good choice too?"
"Enough, I don't want to hear you say these things." Nalan Tianyu said very coldly, "And I've clearly told you, I have a love interest."
"Shen Qiang, right?" The Great Sea Demon stared at Nalan Tianyu seriously, "Listen to what these people are saying!"
The Great Sea Demon's words made the beautiful Nalan Tianyu focus her vision and attention in the hall, following with a flood of various voices about Shen Qiang, uninterrupted.
"I don't care how arrogant Shen Qiang is in front of other practitioners; the Thirty-two Skillful Hands are united and should not let him steal the limelight."
"Give Shen Qiang a hard time, we're ready."
"That Shen Qiang is too arrogant, he needs to be taught a lesson; otherwise, he'll really think he can walk sideways in the cultivation world."
Listening to these words, Nalan Tianyu's eyebrows tightened, and her beautiful eyes looked at the bald Great Sea Demon.
"Clear enough?" The bald Great Sea Demon said coldly, "Shen Qiang may be strong in your eyes, but nobody fears him. Do you know why? Because he's the Dragon Group's Security Advisor, he can't go wild, he has to follow the rules. So even though it's said he cut down a practitioner with a Barrier Dao Fruit in one strike, others still dare to mock and provoke him."
"But I'm different." The bald Great Sea Demon said coldly, "No one dares to insult me. Anyone would behave; once I reveal my name, they shrink like frost-bitten eggplants, sitting quietly without a word of nonsense."
Raising his eyebrows and looking at Nalan Tianyu, the Great Sea Demon smiled, "So I think you should seriously consider my words. In life, who doesn't want to live freely? Do you really think you'd find happiness accompanying Shen Qiang, who has his hands tied in doing things?"
"That's my private matter." Nalan Tianyu said discontentedly.
The Great Sea Demon chuckled, "Indeed it's your private matter, but you must understand, I'm the true king, as for Shen Qiang, he's far from it, he doesn't understand that a king gains supremacy by his own strength, not something else."
Nalan Tianyu's beautiful eyes were very cold, and just as she was about to speak, a group of practitioners entered from outside, with a thin elderly gentleman at the forefront talking loudly, ignoring the surroundings.
"The banquet should almost begin. Everyone, the journey has been exhausting, enduring hardships along the way, letting everyone starve waiting here, is it proper hospitality?"
Hearing this, the twin-tailed girl became anxious, stood up, looked outside the inn, then muttered to herself, "Shen Qiang, that big fool, what time is it now, how come he's still not here."
And as she was saying this, the manager of the Medicine King Inn in the hall quickly smiled and said, "Esteemed elder, please be patient, there is still one participating unit in this conference that hasn't arrived yet, so..."
"Who hasn't come?" The elder asked proudly.
The manager of the Medicine King Inn smiled, a hint of chill flashing in his eyes, saying, "Of course it's the strongest alchemist, Shen Qiang from Heshenghe; this person has quite a temper, if we don't wait for him..."
Upon hearing this, sitting at the table, Nalan Tianyu knew things were going to go bad.
Sure enough, before the Medicine King Inn manager's words were finished, other practitioners in the hall remained calm, after all, they were unaware of the situation, thinking all participants of the Elixir Pills conference had to be present to commence, so they just waited.
But those alchemists exploded instantly.
"The triennial Elixir Pills conference, heroes gather, Shen Qiang is nothing but a junior who didn't even make it to the top hundred, what qualifications does he have for us to wait for him?"
"Ha, attending the Elixir Pills conference, which alchemist isn't confident? This Shen Qiang dragged it out until the last moment to report the strongest pill, claiming it can cure cancer, boasting, is it even real? If true, would he have bragged?"
"Exactly, so what time is it now, oh, he hasn't arrived, and we still have to keep him company?"
"Let's begin!" An old Daoist who looked about sixty years old said coldly, "That Shen Qiang, an ignorant junior, talks nonsense, fabricating a pill that treats cancer, if he comes, he'll surely be exposed on the spot, so there's no need to wait, that Shen Qiang has the courage to boast, but not the courage to arrive."
