Chapter 1686 - 1689: The Dual Extremes of Ice and Fire in Medicine King Valley
Looking at the earnest, pouty Mirage Qimeng, Shen Qiang smiled helplessly and said, "The best way to heal a broken heart isn't to flaunt your affection to provoke him, but to help him start another relationship."Mirage Qimeng was surprised, "I never started anything with him, so it's not like he has a broken heart."
"It is heartbreak," Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow and said, "He secretly loved you and confessed many times; you repeatedly rejected him. So, if you still care about him, even if you don't want the friendship and just want to avoid trouble, then another relationship is undoubtedly the best cure."
"You want to help him?" Mirage Qimeng was astonished, then said, "He's your rival in love, aren't you afraid I'll run off with him?"
Hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed, "Those who want to leave can't be stopped; those pretending to sleep can't be awakened. Remember, unless you specifically hate him, don't flaunt your affection in front of him. Besides, I'm the true doctor here. The prescription I offer won't just heal that fool who's chased you for ten years but will also spare you a lot of trouble."
"He's very capable, a talent. If he keeps pestering you over emotional issues, I believe you'll be quite bothered too, right?"
Looking at the lightly laughing Shen Qiang, Mirage Qimeng exhaled deeply, puffed her cheeks, and said, "Alright, I'll consider it, but be careful. Actually, this world is vast; the cultivation world you see is just the tip of the iceberg, so don't be too arrogant. Take care of yourself, and after I've taken care of things, I'll come back to teach you a lesson."
With that, the charming Mirage Qimeng got off the bed, took a shower, and started dressing.
In a blue and white cheongsam, graceful and alluring.
Red lips, white teeth, charmingly beautiful Mirage Qimeng stunned with her beauty.
Once she was ready, and kissed Shen Qiang on the cheek, as she was about to leave, she suddenly stopped and turned her head to look at Shen Qiang, "Oh, I forgot to remind you of one thing, that is, the Double Saber Demoness, Wenren Meiqiao, is smarter than we thought. She knows that I'm the fake Song Yulong, so you better not deceive her with lies."
Shen Qiang smiled and nodded.
About an hour after Mirage Qimeng left Meiru's house.
Only then did Shen Qiang leave Meiru's house.
During this time, Shen Qiang carefully thought about various details concerning Zong Zijin.
But no matter how he thought, this narrow-minded bastard deserved to die.
So in this regard, Shen Qiang felt no psychological pressure.
It's just that when calling Wenren Meiqiao for dinner, her tone was cold, saying she had a case, and would see him another day, then hung up.
From this behavior, Shen Qiang knew without guessing that Wenren Meiqiao had already guessed that Zong Zijin had been killed by Shen Qiang.
This was tricky.
If Wenren Meiqiao came to Shen Qiang angrily, drew her knife, and started fighting, after the fight, when emotions were vented, it would be easy to talk between the two. Shen Qiang was confident that through some words, he could make Wenren Meiqiao stop being angry.
But the terrifying thing was that Wenren Meiqiao didn't do that, which meant she might be more than just angry.
This gave Shen Qiang a strange sense of pressure.
Moreover, frankly, Shen Qiang knew Wenren Meiqiao was in charge of the escort, yet still chose to act. No matter who it was, this couldn't be solved with just a misunderstanding or love.
But not killing Zong Zijin was definitely not possible, because Dragon Group sent him to a logistics base, not a prison.
So now, it's a situation of taking it step by step.
Zong Zijin was dead.
The invisible threat was eliminated; for the time being, there's no need to worry about the safety of family and friends.
As for the conflict with Wenren Meiqiao, after deep consideration, Shen Qiang decided to resolve it quickly, because this kind of thing, the longer it drags on, the greater the impact on both.
And just as Shen Qiang decided in his heart and called Ke Bizhu and Ye Guyun to go to the restaurant for lunch.
In Medicine King Valley, the atmosphere was tense, with nearly all disciples discussing secretly.
"Have you heard? Senior brother Zong Zijin's missing, it's 100% Shen Qiang's doing. Aside from Shen Qiang, he really has no enemies."
"This Shen Qiang is on the rise, the cultivation world talks about how strong his elixir pills are, saying he has the qualification to challenge Medicine King Valley, ha, he sure did it by killing senior brother first, such malice, we must show him at the elixir pill conference!"
"Heh, no need to guess this; Zong Zijin has repeatedly said the Valley Master privately agreed to marry the young lady to him, but the young lady seems very fond of that Shen Qiang, then Shen Qiang killed Zong Zijin."
"Flies don't nest on seamless eggs, one hand doesn't clap. If senior brother didn't frame and threaten Shen Qiang, I think Shen Qiang wouldn't kill him."
"Shut up, whose side are you on? Senior brother's one of us, even if he did wrong, the sect will back him up, it's not Shen Qiang's place to act. So watch, we won't have to wait for the elixir pill conference, I bet the Valley Master will send super powerhouses to kill Shen Qiang."
"Hmm, makes sense, certainly will. This kind of thing, for dignity alone, we can't tolerate it, let alone the Valley Master. Maybe they're already taking action."
At the same time, in the spacious office of Medicine King Valley.
The Medicine King's Valley Master sat in a chair, smiling at three elders with tense expressions, chuckling, "I know, you all had high hopes for Zijin; I did as well. But now, with this ruthless Shen Qiang, we don't need him anymore."
Upon hearing this, the Great Elder hurriedly said, "Valley Master, Shen Qiang is ultimately an outsider, while Zong Zijin is our chief disciple, his disappearance would make us a joke in the cultivation world."
The Valley Master of Medicine King Valley laughed, "A joke? You overthink. Nobody will laugh at us, because soon they will discover that the strongest alchemist Shen Qiang is ours."
"Valley Master, forgive me, but Shen Qiang will not leave his Heshenghe to join us." said the Third Elder.
The Valley Master of Medicine King Valley smiled, "Alright, since we've come to this point, let's be frank. First, I'm not yet fifty, and can stay Valley Master for another thirty to fifty years without problems. By then, Yu Rou's child will likely be twenty or thirty years old. If this child learns Medicine King Valley's pill recipes and Shen Qiang's strange skills, I think he might become the Medicine King."
"Placing hopes on the next generation?" The three Great Elders looked at each other in astonishment.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door outside, "Valley Master, the young lady is here."
Hearing this, the Medicine King Valley Master smiled, "Alright, this matter isn't urgent, you all withdraw for now. Keep an eye on the Dragon Group, apply pressure, demand return, and issue a stern statement expressing we will not tolerate anyone daring to challenge Medicine King Valley."
"Understood."
The three elders promptly departed.
